Volume Absorption Zones [AGPro Series]Volume Absorption Zones
🔷 Overview
Volume Absorption Zones is a chart-overlay volume analysis tool built around one specific market condition: high effort with limited price result.
Instead of marking every high-volume candle as important, the script looks for candles where participation expands while the candle range stays compressed, the close location shows directional control, and the resulting price area can be tracked as a forward absorption zone.
When a valid event appears, the script draws a rectangular bullish or bearish absorption box, projects it forward, adds an invalidation level, and continues monitoring whether the zone is defended, failed, or left as active context.
The goal is to make absorption visible as a lifecycle on the chart rather than a one-bar marker.
🔹 Core Idea
Absorption is not the same thing as a volume spike.
A volume spike can appear during expansion, exhaustion, liquidation, news reactions, or ordinary session activity. This script focuses on a narrower structure:
- Volume expands relative to its recent baseline.
- Candle spread remains compressed relative to its recent range baseline.
- The close location shows directional control.
- The wick/body structure leaves a usable absorption range.
- The zone remains visible after the event so later defense or failure can be evaluated.
Bullish absorption is modeled as high participation absorbed near the lower side of the candle while the close finishes with upper-side control.
Bearish absorption is modeled as high participation absorbed near the upper side of the candle while the close finishes with lower-side control.
This makes the script an effort-versus-result zone model, not a generic volume highlight.
💎 What Makes This Script Different
Most volume absorption scripts and high-volume tools stop at one of three outputs:
- A candle color.
- A triangle or label.
- A simple high-volume marker.
Volume Absorption Zones goes further by converting the detected event into a managed chart zone.
The script keeps asking questions after the first signal:
- Where is the absorption range?
- Is the zone still active?
- Has price defended the zone?
- Has price closed beyond the invalidation level?
- Is follow-through improving or fading?
- How old is the zone?
- Is the current context bullish absorption, bearish absorption, defended, failed, or mature?
This lifecycle approach is the main design difference. The first event creates the zone; the later candles tell the story.
🧭 Difference From Other AGPro Scripts
This script was designed to sit in a separate lane from existing AGPro volume and price-action tools.
It is not Volume Climax Detector.
Volume Climax Detector focuses on extreme participation and climax-style events. Volume Absorption Zones focuses on compressed effort: elevated volume with limited spread and a forward zone that can later defend or fail.
It is not Relative Volume Pressure Map.
Relative Volume Pressure Map classifies broader relative-volume pressure and pressure efficiency. Volume Absorption Zones does not try to build a broad pressure regime. It isolates concrete absorption ranges and follows their lifecycle.
It is not Volume Delta Imbalance Map.
Volume Delta Imbalance Map is built around flow imbalance behavior. Volume Absorption Zones does not estimate bid/ask delta, CVD, or directional transaction flow. It stays OHLCV-native and uses candle structure plus relative volume effort.
It is not Volume Profile Acceptance Ladder or a POC tool.
This script does not build volume profile bins, value area, POC magnets, acceptance ladders, or auction distribution zones. Its zones come only from absorption-candle conditions.
It is not a general support/resistance drawer.
The boxes are not swing highs, swing lows, pivots, order blocks, or manually projected support/resistance areas. A box appears only when the absorption engine detects high effort, compressed result, close-location control, and sufficient quality.
That separation is important: the script is not a renamed version of another AGPro concept. Its role is absorption-zone lifecycle tracking.
⚙️ How The Engine Works
The script evaluates each candle through a structured sequence:
1. Volume Effort
Current volume is compared with a rolling volume baseline. The event must show elevated participation before any absorption zone can be created.
2. Spread Compression
The candle range is compared with a recent spread baseline. A qualifying event needs limited price travel relative to normal range behavior.
3. Close Location
Bullish absorption requires the close to finish in the upper part of the candle. Bearish absorption requires the close to finish in the lower part of the candle.
4. Absorbed Wick Share
The script checks whether the candle leaves enough absorbed-side structure to define a useful zone.
5. Absorption Quality
Effort, compression, and close-location behavior are blended into a quality score. This helps filter weaker events and keeps the chart focused on stronger absorption structures.
6. Zone Projection
When the event qualifies, the script draws a rectangular zone and extends it forward for the selected number of bars.
7. Invalidation Level
Each zone receives an ATR-buffered invalidation line beyond the absorption range.
8. Defense / Failure Tracking
After the zone is created, the script tracks whether price defends the range or closes beyond invalidation.
📦 Zone States
Active
The zone has been created and remains unresolved.
Defended
Price interacts with the zone and closes back in favor of the zone direction.
Failed
Price closes beyond the ATR-buffered invalidation level.
Mature
The zone remains active beyond the selected age threshold.
These states help the user understand whether an absorption zone is still relevant, has been respected, or has lost its structure.
📊 AGPro Panel
The dashboard summarizes the latest absorption context without requiring the user to inspect every box manually.
Panel fields:
- Absorption Side
- Effort Score
- Spread Compression
- Follow-through
- Zone Status
- Zone Age
The panel follows the AGPro publication layout:
- Single merged blue header row.
- Header contains only the script panel title.
- Adjustable panel location.
- Adjustable panel theme.
- Adjustable panel font size.
🎯 Visual Design
The script is designed to be readable on clean publication charts:
- Bullish zones use the AGPro teal state color.
- Bearish zones use the AGPro pink state color.
- Failed zones shift to the neutral state color.
- Defended zones shift to the accent state color.
- Invalidation lines are dotted and subtle.
- Event labels are offset from candles so they remain visible.
- Label cooldown and maximum-label settings keep density under control.
- Active zone count is capped for performance and readability.
The default visual style is intentionally active, because absorption is easier to understand when the zone lifecycle is visible on the chart.
🔔 Alerts
Included alert conditions:
- Bullish Absorption Zone
- Bearish Absorption Zone
- Absorption Zone Defended
- Absorption Zone Failed
These alerts are tied to the same lifecycle states shown on the chart.

🧩 Best Use
Volume Absorption Zones is designed for traders who want to study:
- High-effort, low-result candles.
- Absorption zones that remain visible after the initial event.
- Whether later price action defends or fails those zones.
- Market areas where volume expands but price travel remains compressed.
- Weekly, daily, and intraday absorption structures without needing a lower-pane volume dashboard.
The script can be used across symbols and timeframes where PulseWire volume data is available. The quality of results depends on the instrument, session structure, liquidity, and reliability of the volume feed.
🔍 Limitations & Transparency
This script uses standard PulseWire OHLCV data.
It does not access order book data, bid/ask data, footprint data, true delta, or exchange-native transaction flow.
The absorption model is rule-based. It approximates absorption through relative volume effort, spread compression, close-location behavior, wick/body structure, and later zone interaction.
It does not predict future price movement and it does not issue buy or sell commands. It organizes absorption context on the chart so users can evaluate how price behaves around those zones.
Different instruments and timeframes may require input adjustments. Thin markets, irregular volume feeds, major gaps, and unusual sessions can affect event quality.
✅ Chart Reading Guide
For the clearest view, use a clean chart with only this script loaded. The boxes, labels, dotted invalidation lines, and panel are designed to explain the absorption lifecycle without requiring additional overlays.
Indicator
Buy/Sell Pressure Meter [AGPro Series]Buy/Sell Pressure Meter
🔹 Overview
Buy/Sell Pressure Meter is a volume-flow analytics tool that quantifies the tug-of-war between buyers and sellers on every bar and on a rolling basis. Unlike traditional volume delta indicators that only plot raw bar-level buy minus sell, this tool layers four complementary lenses into a single oscillator: rolling pressure trend, imbalance streak tracking, intraday pressure shift count, and session-accumulated dominance. A subtle price-pane background tint gives a Bookmap-light read on intraday participation that works across crypto, futures, and liquid equities — without requiring tick-level order flow data.
🔹 Unique Edge
Most volume-delta scripts answer the question "which side was bigger on this bar?" This one answers a different, more useful question for intraday traders: "who has been in control, and how stable is that control?"
• Rolling Pressure Trend — a moving average of buy and sell pressure separately (dual histogram), so you see structural bias, not just bar-to-bar noise.
• Imbalance Streak Tracking — counts consecutive same-side dominant bars and labels only the final length of each significant streak at the moment the streak breaks. No per-bar label spam, one clean marker per event.
• Intraday Pressure Shift Count — how many times the rolling dominant side has flipped since session open. High shift count = rotational day. Low shift count = trending day.
• Session-Accumulated Net Delta — cumulative bull vs bear contribution since the day began, independent of the rolling window.
• Price-Pane Bookmap-Light Tint — a very high-transparency background tint paints the main chart pane when one side is rolling-dominant, so you see control visually without leaving the price chart.
These five lenses together are deliberately designed not to overlap with raw volume-delta or cumulative-volume-delta indicators. They describe the character of participation, not just its magnitude.
🔹 Methodology
Because standard chart data does not include true tick-level order flow, this script uses a widely-accepted proxy: up-bar volume is attributed to buy pressure, down-bar volume to sell pressure, and doji volume is split evenly. This is explicitly a simulated bias — not real bid/ask flow — and the script labels it as such in the panel.
From that proxy:
1. Current-bar bull pressure percentage = buyPressure / (buyPressure + sellPressure) × 100.
2. Rolling pressure = SMA of buy and sell pressure over the user-defined window (default 20 bars).
3. A bar is classified bull-dominant when its bull pressure percent exceeds the dominance threshold (default 55%), and bear-dominant at the mirror level.
4. Streaks count consecutive bars of the same classification and reset when a neutral or opposite bar prints. Peak length is captured at the moment of reset and optionally labelled on chart.
5. Pressure shifts compare the current rolling dominant side against the last confirmed non-neutral dominant side; a change increments the intraday shift counter (only on intraday timeframes).
6. Session delta is the cumulative net delta since the last daily rollover.
🔹 Signals & States
• Dual histogram — buy pressure (teal, upward) and sell pressure (pink, downward) plotted as rolling averages.
• Net delta center line — accent-colored line showing rolling buy minus sell.
• Price-pane background tint — subtle teal or pink when one side is rolling-dominant, gives a Bookmap-light feel without obscuring candles.
• Oscillator-pane echo tint — even more subtle tint mirroring the dominant side in the indicator pane.
• Shift markers — triangles on the pane when the dominant side flips.
• Streak peak labels — plotted only at streak termination, showing final length (e.g. "Bull 7").
• Alerts — pressure shift to bull, pressure shift to bear, bull imbalance streak, bear imbalance streak.
🔹 Key Inputs
Calculation:
• Rolling Pressure Length — default 20. Higher = smoother, slower reaction.
• Minimum Streak To Highlight — default 3. Used for alerts.
• Dominance Threshold — default 55%. Share of total pressure needed to classify a bar as dominant.
Visuals:
• Tint Price Pane On Dominance — toggles the Bookmap-light effect on the main chart.
• Show Streak Peak Labels + Minimum Streak Length To Label (default 5) — controls chart cleanliness.
• Show Pressure Shift Events — triangle markers on shifts.
• Background Tint Transparency — default 94, adjustable 80-99.
Panel:
• Panel Location, Theme (Dark / Light), Font Size, Label Font Size — all default to Normal and fully configurable.
🔹 How To Use
This is an analytical tool, not a standalone trading system. Typical use cases:
• Confirmation — when price breaks a structure level while the rolling net delta is strongly in the break direction and a streak is in progress, the break has participation behind it.
• Exhaustion — a long bull streak peak followed by a rolling shift to bear, or vice versa, often marks the end of the current impulse.
• Regime read — a day with many intraday pressure shifts is rotational; a day with 0-1 shifts is directional. Adjust your playbook accordingly.
• Companion to S/R, supply/demand, and volume profile tools — use the streak peak and shift events as a participation filter when price interacts with a zone.
Best results on liquid instruments with meaningful bar-to-bar volume variation. Low-volume illiquid tickers produce noisier readings.
🔹 Limitations & Transparency
• The buy vs sell attribution is a proxy derived from bar direction and bar volume. It is not real order flow, Level 2, or tick data. Bookmap, CVD from exchange feeds, and footprint tools access information that bar-level scripts structurally cannot replicate.
• On instruments or timeframes where many bars close near their open (doji-heavy regimes), proxy-based attribution becomes less informative.
• The intraday shift counter is only meaningful on intraday timeframes; on daily-and-above timeframes the panel explicitly shows this as n/a.
• The script is non-repainting on closed bars. Intrabar values update in real time and may change until the bar confirms.
• Pressure shifts and streaks describe past and current state. They are not predictions of future price.
🔹 Risk Disclosure
This script is provided as an analytical tool for educational and research purposes. It does not constitute financial advice, a trading signal, or a recommendation to buy or sell any asset. Past performance of any pattern, streak, or shift event does not guarantee future results. Users are solely responsible for their own trading decisions and risk management.

Volume Climax Detector [AGPro Series]Volume Climax Detector
Volume Climax Detector is an advanced volume analytics tool that identifies extreme institutional volume events using a three-filter VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) methodology. Rather than triggering on simple volume multiples, the script combines Volume Z-Score statistics, Spread analysis, and Close Location to isolate genuine climax bars — the kind of exhaustion moves Wyckoff and VSA traders look for at trend tops and bottoms.
🔹 OVERVIEW
Volume alone is a noisy signal. A "high volume bar" on one instrument is a quiet bar on another, and most volume-based indicators either miss real climaxes or fire on every uptick. This script takes a statistical approach: it measures how extreme each bar's volume is relative to its own recent history (Z-Score), confirms the bar structure makes sense (Spread and Close Location), and then classifies the event as a Buying Climax or Selling Climax using trend context — the Wyckoff way.
The result is a small number of high-conviction labels at exactly the places where large participants tend to exhaust themselves: panic buys at tops, panic sells at bottoms, and hidden absorption in between.
🔹 WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
Most volume indicators apply a single threshold (e.g. volume > 2× average) and stop there. This script layers three independent VSA filters, each addressing a different failure mode:
• Volume Z-Score — adapts to the instrument's own volume distribution. A 3σ event on BTC is genuinely rare, regardless of session or timeframe.
• Spread filter — requires the bar's range to exceed its recent average. Eliminates the common false positive of a high-volume bar that barely moved (compression).
• Close Location — requires the close to sit in the upper or lower third of the bar. Separates conviction from indecision.
Beyond detection, two analytics layers set it apart from typical volume tools:
• Reversal Success Tracking — every climax is tracked forward for a configurable window, and the script records whether a meaningful counter-move actually materialised (measured in ATR). The panel shows a live Reversal Rate, so users get honest feedback on how well climaxes have worked on the current symbol and timeframe.
• Magnitude Scoring (1–10) — every climax receives a strength score derived from its Z-Score, making it easy to distinguish routine spikes from truly extreme events (marked with ★).
🔹 METHODOLOGY
1. Volume Statistics
The script computes a rolling mean and standard deviation of volume over a configurable lookback window (default 50 bars). The Z-Score tells how many standard deviations above the mean the current bar is. A reading of 3.0σ or higher (default threshold) corresponds to the top ~0.27% of bars — statistically rare, not just "above average."
2. Triple Filter Gate
A bar qualifies as a potential climax only when:
• Z-Score ≥ threshold (volume anomaly)
• Bar range ≥ spread multiplier × average range (wide spread)
• Close is in the upper 33% (strength) or lower 33% (weakness) of the bar range
3. Wyckoff Classification
• Buying Climax — qualifying bar during an established uptrend. Interpretation: buyers are exhausting themselves; potential topping action.
• Selling Climax — qualifying bar during an established downtrend. Interpretation: sellers are exhausting themselves; potential basing action.
• When no clear trend exists, classification falls back to close location plus bar direction so that sideways regimes still produce meaningful signals.
4. Confluence Grouping
When multiple same-direction climaxes occur close together in time or price, the script collapses them into a single label representing the strongest event in the cluster. This keeps charts readable without losing information — the panel still counts every individual climax.
5. Effort vs Result (optional)
A companion layer flags high-volume bars with unusually narrow spread — the classic VSA "No Demand" and "No Supply" conditions. These often signal hidden absorption ahead of a reversal and are shown as separate labels.
🔹 SIGNALS & ALERTS
Four built-in alert conditions:
• Buying Climax detected
• Selling Climax detected
• Extreme Climax (Z-Score above the extreme threshold, marked with ★)
• No Demand / No Supply divergence
Each alert payload includes the symbol, Z-Score, and magnitude score, ready for automation or review.
🔹 KEY INPUTS
• Volume Lookback (default 50) — rolling window for statistics.
• Z-Score Threshold (default 3.0σ) — minimum statistical extremity. Lower on intraday, higher for premium signals only.
• Extreme Threshold (default 4.0σ) — above this, climaxes are flagged with a ★.
• Spread and Close filters — each can be toggled independently for flexibility across asset classes.
• Trend EMA Length and Sensitivity — control how the script defines uptrend and downtrend, with an ATR-normalised slope check to avoid misclassifying sideways regimes.
• Reversal Window and Threshold — define what counts as a "successful" reversal for the panel statistic.
• Confluence controls — Time-first (default), Price-first, or Strict mode, plus bar and ATR tolerances.
• Climax Zones (optional, default off) — extends each climax bar's range forward as a reaction zone, similar to S/R.
🔹 HOW TO USE
• Start with defaults on any liquid instrument and timeframe. The script adapts to the local volume distribution automatically.
• On highly volatile intraday timeframes, consider raising the Z-Score Threshold to 3.5σ for fewer, cleaner signals. On slower timeframes, the default works well.
• Treat a ★ Extreme Climax as higher-conviction than a plain climax, and pay attention to the Magnitude Score for fine gradation.
• Use the Reversal Rate panel value as a feedback loop — if it is low on your chosen instrument and timeframe, either adjust thresholds or reconsider the setup.
• Combine with your own structural analysis (support/resistance, HTF trend, market structure) for confirmation. The script identifies the event, not the entry.
🔹 LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
• This is an indicator, not a strategy. It does not generate buy or sell orders and makes no assumption about position sizing or risk management.
• Climaxes are statistical events. They tend to mark inflection points, but no volume pattern resolves into a reversal every time. The built-in Reversal Rate panel value exists precisely to make this honest — users see the actual hit rate on their own chart.
• The script uses publicly available volume data from the chart's exchange. Volume quality varies by venue; results may differ on symbols with thin or unreliable volume reporting.
• Classification depends on trend context. In strongly sideways regimes, the fallback rules may label climaxes differently than a human analyst would; reviewing the Trend EMA and sensitivity inputs helps here.
• Labels are confirmed on bar close (no repaint). Panel counters and the Current Z-Score value update intrabar for live monitoring.
🔹 RISK DISCLOSURE
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past behaviour of any signal or statistic does not guarantee future performance.

Wyckoff Accumulation Phase Map [AGPro Series]Wyckoff Accumulation Phase Map
🟢 OVERVIEW
Wyckoff Accumulation Phase Map is the bullish counterpart of the Wyckoff Distribution Phase Map and completes the AGPro Wyckoff structural cycle. It is a retrospective structural mapping tool that locates and labels the seven core accumulation events — Preliminary Support (PS), Selling Climax (SC), Automatic Rally (AR), Secondary Test (ST), Spring, Last Point of Support (LPS) and Sign of Strength (SOS) — only after a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH) confirms that the prior downtrend has structurally broken. The indicator frames the active trading range as a shaded zone, plots SC and AR horizontal references, tracks the current phase (A, B, C, D, E) in a dedicated info panel, and introduces three accumulation-specific layers absent from the distribution companion: a Spring Quality Score, a Cause-to-Effect markup projection and a rolling volume footprint classifier.
🟢 COMPANION TO THE DISTRIBUTION PHASE MAP
This indicator is intentionally designed as the symmetric counterpart of Wyckoff Distribution Phase Map . The two scripts share a unified AGPro visual language and a CHoCH-gated reveal philosophy, but they operate on opposite market regimes and different event sets:
- Distribution map works on uptrends and draws PSY, BC, AR, UT, SOW and LPSY after a bearish CHoCH.
- Accumulation map works on downtrends and draws PS, SC, AR, ST, Spring, LPS and SOS after a bullish CHoCH.
- Distribution projects a potential markdown line from LPSY.
- Accumulation projects a Cause-to-Effect markup target from SOS.
- Accumulation additionally provides a 0-100 Spring Quality Score, which has no structural equivalent in the distribution schematic.
Both tools are standalone. Users running the full AGPro Wyckoff workflow can apply them together for complete cycle coverage, but neither depends on the other.
🟢 WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
Most Wyckoff scripts on PulseWire react to every elevated swing low during a downtrend and label PS / SC / Spring on every modest dip. The result is a noisy chart, often with contradictory events stacked on top of each other. This indicator takes the opposite approach. During a qualified downtrend, the chart remains completely clean. Rolling trackers silently maintain candidate values for SC, PS and AR in memory, while a live Watching row in the panel shows what the engine is currently monitoring. Events are only drawn on the chart after a bullish CHoCH locks the schematic, at which point PS, SC and AR appear together as a confirmed retrospective bundle. ST, Spring, LPS and SOS then populate as post-CHoCH structure unfolds. A multi-tier expiry system closes both incomplete and fully-played-out accumulations, ensuring the active schematic on screen always reflects current market structure and not stale history.
🟢 METHODOLOGY
The engine runs in three coordinated layers.
Layer one qualifies a prior downtrend. A valid Wyckoff accumulation precondition requires four concurrent factors: structural lower highs and lower lows, a minimum ATR-multiple depth from the lookback-window high, a duration sustained across the full lookback window, and price currently located in the lower portion of that window. All four conditions must hold before any candidate can form.
Layer two rolls candidate values during that qualified downtrend. SC candidate is the running lowest pivot low with elevated or climactic volume. PS candidate is the prior elevated swing low that predates the SC. AR candidate is the highest post-SC swing high that remains within a structurally reasonable distance from SC. Candidates are automatically invalidated if price drifts far above the SC without a structural break or if the candidate ages beyond a configurable maximum.
Layer three watches for a bullish Change of Character, defined as the first bar that closes above the qualified AR candidate. On CHoCH confirmation, PS, SC and AR are snapshotted as labeled events, the trading range is drawn, and the state machine advances to forward detection. ST, Spring, LPS and SOS are then detected in sequence using a combination of price-to-SC, price-to-AR and volume-to-average filters. Volume context is computed against a configurable moving-average baseline with separate climactic, elevated and weak thresholds.
The Spring Quality Score blends four components into a 0-100 rating: penetration depth below SC, volume dry-up on the sweep bar, recovery strength measured by close position within the candle range, and close location relative to SC. The Cause-to-Effect projection draws a symmetrical markup target from the SOS bar using the trading range height.
🟢 SIGNALS AND ALERTS
The indicator fires three categories of alerts, all reserved for confirmed structural events:
- CHoCH Confirmation alert triggers when the structural break locks in, including the resolved SC and AR levels.
- Spring alert fires when the Spring is detected, including the Spring Quality score.
- Sign of Strength alert fires when SOS confirms with climactic volume above AR.
No alerts are emitted during the forming phase. This keeps notification volume low and focused on decisive structural moments.
🟢 KEY INPUTS
Core Engine inputs control swing lookback sensitivity, candidate maximum age, post-CHoCH timeout, prior downtrend lookback, minimum downtrend depth in ATR multiples, and the near-lows threshold used in downtrend qualification. Volume Analysis exposes the moving-average length and three separate multipliers for climactic, elevated and weak volume classification. Visual inputs toggle the trading range zone, SC and AR horizontal levels, the CHoCH dashed break line, the Cause-to-Effect projection, the floating summary label and the keep-historical-events mode, with full control over font size and zone transparency. The info panel can be repositioned to six anchor points and switched between dark and light themes.
🟢 HOW TO USE
Apply the indicator to any liquid instrument and any timeframe. During downtrends, observe the Watching row in the panel to monitor the forming SC candidate. When CHoCH prints, the full PS, SC and AR bundle appears and the trading range is shaded. From that point, use the Next Expected row to track what the engine is waiting for. The Confidence score progresses from 70 at CHoCH to 97 at SOS. The Spring Quality Score becomes populated when a Spring is detected and quantifies the character of the sweep. The Volume Footprint row rolls through Range forming, Supply exhausting, Weak hands shaken, Supply absorbed and Demand in control as the schematic matures. The floating summary label on the right edge of the chart provides an at-a-glance status even when the primary event labels are scrolled off to the left. The indicator works standalone but is designed to complement any market structure, order flow or supply-and-demand workflow.
🟢 LIMITATIONS AND TRANSPARENCY
This tool is a pattern-recognition and labeling engine, not a strategy or a trading signal generator. All events are detected retrospectively after their confirming bar has closed plus the swing lookback period. This is by design to eliminate redrawing. The Wyckoff schematic is a framework, not a deterministic forecast. Not every accumulation completes the full seven-event sequence, and markets frequently fail schematics entirely and resume the prior downtrend. The volume analysis assumes reliable reported volume, so thin or fragmented markets may produce weaker classification. The Spring Quality Score and Confidence score are internal heuristics tied to event progression and are not statistical probabilities. The Cause-to-Effect projection is a classical Wyckoff reference line derived from range height, not a mechanical target guaranteed to be reached. Past schematic completions do not predict future market behavior.
🟢 RISK DISCLOSURE
This indicator is published for educational and analytical purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice, a trading recommendation or an investment solicitation. Trading any financial instrument involves substantial risk, including the potential loss of principal. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Users are solely responsible for their own trading decisions, risk management and independent research. Always backtest thoroughly and trade within a risk framework you understand. Indicator
Wyckoff Distribution Phase Map [AGPro Series]Wyckoff Distribution Phase Map
🔹 OVERVIEW
Wyckoff Distribution Phase Map is a retrospective structural mapping tool built on the classic Wyckoff distribution schematic. It locates and labels the six core distribution events — Preliminary Supply (PSY), Buying Climax (BC), Automatic Reaction (AR), Upthrust (UT), Sign of Weakness (SOW) and Last Point of Supply (LPSY) — only after a bearish Change of Character (CHoCH) confirms that the prior uptrend has structurally broken. The indicator frames the active trading range as a shaded zone, plots BC and AR horizontal references, and tracks the phase state (A, B, C, D, E) in a dedicated info panel with a forming-candidate watchlist before confirmation.
🔹 WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
Most Wyckoff scripts on PulseWire label events reactively on every elevated swing, producing dense, often contradictory signals during ranging or trending markets. This indicator takes the opposite approach. During an uptrend, the chart remains completely clean. Rolling trackers silently maintain candidate values for BC, PSY and AR in memory, while a live watchlist row in the panel shows the forming distribution candidate in real time. Events are only drawn on the chart after CHoCH locks the schematic, at which point PSY, BC and AR appear together as a confirmed retrospective bundle. UT, SOW and LPSY then populate as the post-CHoCH structure unfolds. A two-tier expiry system closes both incomplete and fully-played-out distributions, ensuring the active schematic on screen always reflects current market structure — not stale history.
🔹 METHODOLOGY
The engine runs in two coordinated layers. The first layer tracks higher-high and higher-low sequences to qualify an uptrend and rolls candidate values for the Buying Climax (running maximum swing high), Preliminary Supply (last pre-BC elevated swing high) and Automatic Reaction (running minimum after BC). The second layer watches for a structural break below the last confirmed higher-low, which defines the CHoCH. On CHoCH confirmation, the candidate values are snapshotted as BC, PSY and AR labels, the trading range zone is drawn, and the state machine advances to the forward-detection phase. Upthrust, Sign of Weakness and Last Point of Supply are then detected in strict sequence using a combination of price-to-BC, price-to-AR and volume-to-average filters. Volume context is computed against a 20-period moving average baseline with separate climactic, elevated and weak thresholds tuned for crypto and equities alike.
🔹 SIGNALS AND ALERTS
The indicator fires two categories of alerts. The CHoCH Confirmation alert triggers the moment the structural break locks in, including the resolved BC and AR levels. Event alerts fire for each subsequent UT, SOW and LPSY detection. No alert is fired during the forming phase — alerts are reserved for confirmed structural events, keeping notification noise low. A projected markdown line is drawn forward from LPSY using the trading range height as a symmetrical target, purely as a visual reference point rather than a trade signal.
🔹 KEY INPUTS
Core Engine inputs control swing lookback sensitivity, candidate maximum age and the post-CHoCH timeout window. Volume Analysis exposes the moving average length and three multipliers for climactic, elevated and weak volume classification. Visual inputs toggle the trading range zone, BC and AR horizontal levels, the CHoCH dashed break line, the markdown projection, the confidence halo and the floating distribution summary label, with full control over font size, line widths and zone transparency. The info panel can be repositioned to six anchor points and switched between dark and light themes. A Keep Historical Events toggle allows old schematics to remain on the chart after reset, off by default for a clean view.
🔹 HOW TO USE
Apply the indicator to any liquid instrument and any timeframe. During uptrends, observe the Watching row in the panel to monitor the forming BC candidate. When CHoCH prints, the full PSY, BC, AR bundle appears with the trading range shaded. From that point, use the Next Expected row to track what the engine is waiting for. The confidence score progresses from 70 at CHoCH to 97 at LPSY. The floating summary label on the right edge of the chart provides an at-a-glance status even when the primary event labels are scrolled off to the left. The indicator works standalone but is designed to complement any market structure, order flow or supply-and-demand workflow.
🔹 LIMITATIONS AND TRANSPARENCY

The Wyckoff schematic is a framework, not a deterministic forecast; not every distribution completes the full six-event sequence, and markets frequently fail schematics entirely and resume the prior trend. The volume analysis assumes reliable reported volume, so thin or fragmented markets may produce weaker classification. Confidence scores are internal heuristics tied to event progression, not statistical probabilities. Past schematic completions do not predict future market behavior.

VWAP Cross Flow Engine [AGPro Series]VWAP Cross Flow Engine
🔹 OVERVIEW
VWAP Cross Flow Engine is a precision scoring system for price-to-VWAP
crossovers. Instead of treating every VWAP cross as a binary signal,
this indicator measures the QUALITY of each crossover event in real
time using a weighted composite score derived from momentum, volume
expansion and optional sigma-band confluence. The engine is designed
for intraday scalpers and swing traders who rely on VWAP as a dynamic
equilibrium reference and need a structured way to separate high-
conviction continuation crosses from low-quality noise flips.
The script plots an anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price line with
optional volume-weighted standard-deviation bands, detects every
price/VWAP crossover event, scores each one on a 0–100 scale and
visualizes the result through compact X markers, directional bar
coloring, a retrospective quality dashboard and a dynamic bias zone
anchored on the strongest crosses.
🔸 UNIQUE EDGE
Most VWAP-based tools stop at plotting the line and marking raw
crossovers. VWAP Cross Flow Engine adds a multi-factor quality layer
on top of the crossover itself:
• Every cross receives a composite score, not a pass/fail flag
• Momentum sub-score derived from RSI distance from 50 at cross bar
• Volume sub-score derived from current volume vs SMA baseline
• Optional confluence bonus when cross occurs beyond 2-sigma envelope
• Retrospective follow-through measurement in ATR units
• Session-aware counters with automatic daily-vs-higher-timeframe
label switching
• ATR-based cooldown filter that prevents label overlap on any
timeframe, not just bar-count cooldowns that fail on daily charts
The combination of live scoring + retrospective success tracking in a
single panel is the core differentiator. It allows the trader to both
filter new crosses and study the historical reliability of VWAP cross
behavior on any symbol and timeframe.
🔷 METHODOLOGY
1. VWAP CALCULATION
Volume-weighted average of HLC3 (configurable) anchored to the
Session, Week or Month boundary. Cumulative price*volume and
cumulative volume series are reset at every anchor change.
2. SIGMA BANDS (optional)
Volume-weighted variance computed as E − E ² where X is the
source price weighted by volume. Square root produces the true
volume-weighted standard deviation. 1σ and 2σ envelopes are drawn
around the VWAP line.
3. CROSS DETECTION
Standard ta.crossover / ta.crossunder between close and VWAP.
4. QUALITY SCORING
• Momentum sub-score: |RSI(14) − 50|, scaled to 0–40 range
• Volume sub-score: volume / SMA(20), capped at 3x, scaled 0–30
• Confluence bonus: +5 if prior bar touched the opposing 2σ band
• Total live score (max 70 or 75) is rescaled to 0–100
5. COOLDOWN FILTER
A new cross is only plotted if BOTH conditions are met:
• At least N bars since the last plotted cross
• At least K × ATR price distance from the last plotted cross
6. FOLLOW-THROUGH TRACKING
Each cross is stored with its direction, price and ATR at the time
of the event. After N bars, the displacement (in the cross
direction) is measured. Success rate and average follow-through
in ATR units are maintained inside a rolling lookback window.
7. QUALITY ZONE
A rectangle zone (0.8 × ATR tall by default, 60 bars long) is
drawn at every strong cross (score ≥ 70). The zone acts as a
dynamic bias area anchored on high-conviction VWAP interactions.
🔶 SIGNALS & ALERTS
The indicator fires five distinct alert conditions:
1. High-Quality VWAP Cross Up — bullish cross above the min quality
threshold with cooldown satisfied.
2. High-Quality VWAP Cross Down — bearish cross above the min quality
threshold with cooldown satisfied.
3. Strong VWAP Cross (≥70) — score 70 or higher; anchors a new
quality zone.
4. Price Reached +2σ Band — price extended to the upper sigma band
(optional, requires bands enabled).
5. Price Reached −2σ Band — price extended to the lower sigma band
(optional, requires bands enabled).

🔸 HOW TO USE
• INTRADAY SCALPING — use Session anchor on 5m–1h charts. Focus on
crosses scoring 70 or higher. The quality zone becomes a short-term
bias area: price holding above a bull zone mid-line tends to favor
continuation, breaks back through the mid-line tend to indicate
weakening conviction.
• SWING BIAS — use Week or Month anchor on 4h and daily charts. Treat
strong crosses as potential regime-shift events. Monitor the
Success Rate metric to calibrate expectations for the current
market and instrument.
• MEAN-REVERSION — enable sigma bands and confluence bonus. Crosses
that form after a 2σ stretch tend to score higher and mark
statistically meaningful reversal attempts.
• FILTER CALIBRATION — raise Min Quality To Plot to 60 or 70 for
high-selectivity environments; lower to 40 for noisier instruments
where you want earlier confirmation.
The dashboard gives at-a-glance context: how many crosses have fired
this session, how many were strong, what the historical win rate
looks like in the current lookback window, the average ATR-normalized
follow-through, and whether price is currently above or below VWAP.
🔷 LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
• This is NOT a strategy and does not generate buy/sell orders.
• Score is a quality filter, not a directional prediction. A high-
score cross still carries market risk and can fail.
• Follow-through statistics depend on lookback window size and
timeframe; adjust Success Rate Lookback to match your trading
horizon.
• Sigma bands require a reliable volume feed. On low-liquidity
instruments the bands may be noisy or meaningless.
• Anchored VWAP resets at each new anchor (Session / Week / Month);
early-in-anchor values use fewer samples and are less stable.
• The indicator repaints only within the cross bar itself (like any
crossover detector). Once a bar closes, the plotted cross and its
score are fixed.

Break-Retest Quality [AGPro Series]Break-Retest Quality
🎯 OVERVIEW
Break-Retest Quality is a precision-focused structure toolkit that detects pivot-based breaks of structure (BOS) and grades the first retest of the broken level using a transparent, multi-factor quality score. Instead of only drawing a break line and leaving you to guess whether the retest "looked clean", the script quantifies the retest with a 0-100 score and an A / B / C / F letter grade so you can quickly separate high-conviction pullbacks from low-quality ones. It is a discretionary context tool built for price action traders, SMC / ICT practitioners and anyone who builds setups around break-and-retest logic.
The system is fully automated, non-repainting after confirmation, and works on any symbol and timeframe that PulseWire supports.
📐 UNIQUE EDGE — WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
Most break-of-structure indicators stop at drawing a line and an arrow. Break-Retest Quality goes further:
🔹 Every retest is scored on six independent factors and translated into an A / B / C / F grade
🔹 The acceptance zone is an ATR-scaled rectangle that changes color and state as the setup evolves (live WATCH → graded RETEST)
🔹 A "Min Grade To Display" filter keeps weak retests off the chart, so the visual footprint stays clean
🔹 A right-edge WATCH tag pins the currently active level so you never lose track of the live setup
🔹 A compact two-line retest marker shows grade, score and a short outcome tag in a minimal footprint
🔹 Built-in cooldown and single-retest-per-break logic prevent label clutter on choppy price action
This is not a repackaged BOS indicator — it is a quality filter on top of BOS / retest logic.
🧪 METHODOLOGY
1. STRUCTURE DETECTION
Pivot highs and lows are detected with a user-defined Pivot Length. A break is registered when price clears the most recent pivot by at least Min Break ATR Filter × ATR, either on a close (default) or on a wick.
2. RETEST TRACKING
After a confirmed break, the script opens an acceptance zone of ± Retest Tolerance ATR × ATR around the broken level and watches for the first price revisit within Max Bars For Retest.
3. QUALITY SCORING (0-100)
The first retest is graded on six weighted factors:
🔸 Reclaim (25 pts) — how decisively the close reclaims the correct side of the level
🔸 Rejection (20 pts) — wick / body composition on the retest bar
🔸 Depth (20 pts) — how close the extreme of the retest bar lands to the level (no excessive overshoot)
🔸 Speed (15 pts) — how quickly the retest prints after the break
🔸 Volatility (10 pts) — bar range discipline relative to ATR
🔸 Volume (10 pts, optional) — relative volume vs 20-bar SMA
Final score → Grade: A ≥ 80, B ≥ 65, C ≥ 50, F < 50.
4. CONFIRMATION LOGIC
A retest is marked "confirmed" only if the score meets the Min Grade For Confirmation threshold AND the close lands on the correct side of the broken level.
🔔 SIGNALS & ALERTS
Three PulseWire alert conditions are exposed:
🔹 Structure Break Detected — fires the moment a valid break is registered
🔹 First Retest Detected — fires on the first qualifying revisit inside the acceptance zone
🔹 High-Quality Retest Confirmed — fires only when the graded retest meets the confirmation threshold
⚙️ KEY INPUTS
STRUCTURE
• Pivot Length, Use Close Confirmation, Min Break ATR Filter, ATR Length
RETEST
• Max Bars For Retest, Retest Tolerance ATR, Cooldown Bars After Completed Setup, Resolved Zone Extension
SCORING
• Show Numeric Score / Grade, Use Volume Confirmation, Min Grade For Confirmation, Min Grade To Display
VISUALS
• Show Break Line / Labels / Retest Marker / Retest Zone / Watch Zone Text / Resolved Zone Text / Active Level Glow / Right-Edge Watch Tag / Invalidation Line / Outcome Text, Use Grade Colors, Zone Forward Extension, Label Size
PANEL
• Show Panel, Panel Position, Panel Font Size, Show Last Result Row
RUNTIME
• Keep Last Setups (controls how many historical setups stay on the chart)
🧭 HOW TO USE
1. Add Break-Retest Quality to any chart and timeframe. Adjust Pivot Length to match the structure you care about (lower on intraday, higher on swing).
2. Wait for a BRK▲ or BRK▼ label to print — this confirms a structure break.
3. Observe the live acceptance zone and the right-edge WATCH tag. These mark the level and the remaining retest window.
4. When price returns to the zone, read the two-line retest marker: grade + score on the top line, short outcome tag (Strong / Valid / Weak / Failed) on the bottom line.
5. Use the panel to monitor live state, active level, remaining window and the last completed result with its full outcome description.
6. Combine with your own confluences — higher-timeframe bias, liquidity levels, session context, volume profile — before acting on any signal.
⚠️ LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
🔹 This is an analytical and educational tool, not a strategy. It does not generate buy / sell orders and does not measure historical performance.
🔹 Grades describe the geometric and relative-volume quality of the retest bar at the moment it prints. They are not predictions of future price movement.
🔹 Scores calculated at bar close are final; intra-bar readings can shift until the bar closes.
🔹 The volume factor depends on exchange-supplied volume data. Turn it off on instruments where volume is unreliable or missing.
🔹 Pivot-based structure is sensitive to the Pivot Length setting. Choose it deliberately for the timeframe and symbol you are analyzing.

Regime Transition Intelligence [AGPro Series]Regime Transition Intelligence
Most regime scripts answer a single question: "what regime are we in right now?". Regime Transition Intelligence is designed to answer a different, more actionable set of questions: how long does this regime usually last, how close to its typical end is it, how likely is it to flip within the next N bars, and where does it historically go when it does flip. Instead of treating the current regime as a standalone snapshot, it builds a living, self-calibrating statistical profile of the symbol's own regime behavior and presents it in a compact on-chart dashboard.
The engine runs on three independent axes — Trend Strength (Kaufman Efficiency Ratio + ADX), Chop Risk (Choppiness Index + inverse trend), and Volatility (ATR% normalized over a user-defined lookback). Each axis is classified as LOW / MID / HIGH, either with fixed 33/67 thresholds or with an adaptive percentile rank engine that learns the symbol's own statistical envelope over a rolling window. The three axes are then combined into a discrete regime state: TREND, MIXED, or RANGE / CHOP.
🟦 Overview / What it does
Regime Transition Intelligence is a single-pane overlay indicator that continuously classifies the market into one of three regimes and then layers a full transition intelligence stack on top of that classification:
- A per-regime dwell-time distribution learned from the chart's own completed regime blocks
- A Bayesian-style flip probability that answers "how likely is a regime change within the next N bars, given the current age"
- A 3x3 transition matrix that ranks the most likely next regime with a secondary fallback
- A fatigue score comparing the current regime's age to its historical mean (FRESH / MATURE / EXTENDED)
- A confidence decay tracker that shows whether conviction is BUILDING, STABLE, or FADING within the current regime block
- A compact history ribbon showing the last completed regime blocks with their durations
- Higher-timeframe alignment with a SYNC / DIV indicator and a live beacon at the right edge of the chart
All of this is delivered inside a single configurable dashboard, a directional transition marker layer on the chart, optional regime tint and candle coloring, and a right-edge beacon summarizing the current state.
🟣 Unique Edge / Why it is not a basic mashup
Standard regime indicators report the current state and stop there. Regime Transition Intelligence adds six distinct statistical layers that together form a transition-aware view:
1. Dwell Time Statistics — the script stores every completed regime block in a rolling array (configurable depth) and continuously updates running mean, running variance, running max, and running count per regime code. Statistics are only shown after a minimum number of blocks per regime have been collected, so the user always knows when the sample size is still too small.
2. Exponential Hazard Flip Probability — the baseline flip probability uses P(flip within H bars) = 1 - exp(-H / mean), a standard survival-analysis construction assuming constant hazard. The result is then fatigue-adjusted: if the current age is far above the historical mean, the probability is boosted; if the regime has just started, the probability is damped. The final value is capped at 95% to avoid certainty claims.
3. Transition Matrix — a 3x3 counter records every observed regime transition and is read as a conditional distribution: "given the current regime ends, which regime is it most likely to move to, and what is the runner-up". Both the top candidate and the secondary candidate are displayed with their percentages.
4. Fatigue Score — the ratio of the current age to the historical mean is bucketed into three zones (FRESH, MATURE, EXTENDED) using user-configurable thresholds. It tells the user whether the current regime is still in its early lifecycle or already past its typical end.
5. Confidence Decay Tracker — conviction in the current regime is sampled at the start of each new block and compared to the current conviction. The delta is classified as BUILDING, STABLE, or FADING, which gives an early read on whether the regime is strengthening or losing its grip.
6. History Ribbon — the last N completed regime blocks are compressed into a single compact line such as "C2·M4·C8·M1·M7*", where letters are regime codes and numbers are bar counts, with the current block marked by an asterisk. It gives immediate context on recent regime rhythm at a single glance.
None of these layers is a repackaged classic indicator. They are built on top of a trend / chop / volatility engine but deliver information that is categorically different from a simple "regime yes / no" readout.
🟢 Methodology / Conceptual data flow
1. Feature extraction. Kaufman Efficiency Ratio (net move over lookback divided by summed absolute moves) and normalized ADX are combined into a trend score. The Choppiness Index is normalized against its operating range and blended with inverse trend to produce a chop score. ATR as a percentage of price is normalized against its own lookback min/max to produce a volatility score.
2. Classification. Each score is mapped to LOW / MID / HIGH using either fixed thresholds (Static mode) or percentile rank over an adaptive lookback (Adaptive mode). The three bands are combined into a discrete regime state: TREND when trend is HIGH and chop is LOW, RANGE / CHOP when chop is HIGH, and MIXED otherwise.
3. Block tracking. Every time the regime state changes on a confirmed bar, the previous block is closed: its duration is pushed to a rolling history array and added to the running sum / sum-of-squares / count / max for its regime code. When the history array exceeds its configured depth, the oldest block is popped and its contribution is subtracted from the running totals, which keeps the statistics adaptive and non-expanding.
4. Transition matrix update. When a block closes into a new regime, the 3x3 counter is incremented at the corresponding cell, and the row total is incremented. The conditional distribution for the current regime is read from its row at display time.
5. Statistical outputs. Mean dwell, fatigue ratio, exponential-hazard flip probability, fatigue-adjusted flip probability, top and secondary next regimes, and confidence delta are all derived from the running state and rendered into the dashboard.
6. Higher-timeframe alignment. The same three-axis engine is run on a user-selected higher timeframe via request.security and compared against the current-timeframe regime; the result appears as SYNC or DIV in the header and as an optional HTF row in the dashboard.
🔔 Signals & Alerts / Interpretation
Regime Transition Intelligence is a state-mapping and statistical context tool rather than a directional buy / sell engine. The main on-chart events are:
- Regime Shift — fires when the regime state changes on a confirmed bar
- High Flip Probability — fires when the fatigue-adjusted flip probability crosses a high threshold
- Regime Fatigue Extended — fires on the transition into the EXTENDED fatigue zone
- Confidence Fading — fires on the transition into the FADING confidence zone
How to read the panel:
- Summary + Age tells the user which regime is active and how long it has been active.
- Dwell Context compares the current age to the historical mean in the form "age / mean · % of typical lifespan".
- Fatigue summarizes that comparison as FRESH, MATURE, or EXTENDED.
- Flip Probability reports the statistical odds of a regime change within the user-defined horizon.
- Next Likely names the most probable next regime with its percentage and a secondary fallback.
- Confidence and Conf Decay together tell the user whether the current read is reliable and whether conviction is rising or fading.
- History gives quick situational awareness of recent regime rhythm.
None of these rows should be interpreted as a trade instruction. They are a context layer meant to be combined with the user's own structure and entry framework.
🎛️ Key Inputs
Regime Engine Core — Trend Persistence Length, DMI/ADX Length, Chop Length, ATR Length, Volatility Normalize Lookback.
Adaptive Boundaries — Band Classification Mode (Adaptive / Static), Adaptive Lookback, Adaptive Low / High Percentile.
Transition Intelligence — Regime History Depth, Flip Probability Horizon, Min Blocks Before Stats Activate, Fatigue Fresh / Extended thresholds.
HUD — Display Mode (PRO / MINIMAL), HUD Position, Text Size, transparency controls, individual row toggles, history ribbon length.
Add-ons — Chart Regime Tint, Regime Candle Coloring (Soft / Strong), HTF Peek Timeframe, Transition Markers (location, cooldown, stagger, size, ATR offset), Live Regime Beacon (position, size, stats toggle).
🧭 How to use
1. Add the script to any chart and timeframe. The engine is tuned to work from 15m up to Daily; very low timeframes on illiquid instruments can produce unstable regime blocks and are not the intended use case.
2. Give the script time to collect blocks. Statistics stay in N/A until the configured minimum number of completed blocks per regime has accumulated. On a fresh chart or an illiquid instrument this is expected behavior, not a bug.
3. Read the dashboard top-down. Start with the three axis rows to understand the current market shape, then move to Summary and Age to see what is active and for how long, then use Dwell / Fatigue / Flip / Next Likely to place the current regime inside its historical distribution, and finally use Conf Decay and HTF to sanity-check reliability and alignment.
4. Treat EXTENDED fatigue and high flip probability as context, not as a reversal signal. Regimes can remain in the EXTENDED zone for a while before actually flipping; the statistical profile is descriptive, not deterministic.
5. Combine with structural context. The script does not know about support / resistance, order blocks, or news. It only knows about the symbol's own regime rhythm. Use it as a regime-aware filter on top of the user's existing framework.
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
This is not a strategy and not a complete trading system. It does not predict price direction and does not generate buy or sell signals. All statistics are estimated from a rolling history of the chart's own regime blocks, so they are sensitive to the chosen engine parameters, the timeframe, and the symbol; different timeframes and different instruments will produce different statistical profiles, and that is by design.
The exponential-hazard flip probability assumes a constant hazard within the current regime, which is a simplification. Real-world regime durations are not perfectly memoryless and the fatigue multiplier is a heuristic correction, not a formal model. The probability is capped at 95% on purpose, because even a heavily aged regime cannot be considered a certainty and the script deliberately avoids certainty language.
The transition matrix is read as a conditional frequency over completed blocks; it is informative about the symbol's own past behavior and should not be interpreted as a forward-looking forecast. Very small samples produce unstable conditional probabilities, which is why stats stay in N/A until a minimum number of blocks is collected.
Regime classification itself reacts to confirmed bars and can change as new data arrives, which is expected for any regime filter. Users who prefer fully non-repainting alerts should rely on the barstate.isconfirmed-gated alert conditions provided.

Swap Engine - Pair Rotation (Z-Score) [AGPro Series]Swap Engine - Pair Rotation (Z-Score)
🔷 OVERVIEW
Swap Engine - Pair Rotation (Z-Score) transforms the log-ratio between two correlated crypto assets into a disciplined tier ladder decision framework. Rather than signalling single-asset direction, the engine measures how stretched one pair has become relative to its rolling mean and proposes rotation between the two assets when the spread reaches statistically meaningful extremes. Every decision is evaluated on confirmed Engine TF bar close, keeping suggestions non-repainting under the configured execution model.
🟣 UNIQUE EDGE
Unlike single-symbol mean-reversion or trend indicators, this engine treats the ratio itself as the tradable variable and pairs it with a full operational stack: a tiered exposure ladder (T0 to T3), an Integrity Gate that blocks entries when the pair relationship deteriorates, a Trend Regime filter that respects persistent one-sided moves, and a confirm-first execution model that converts raw signals into auditable decisions. A dedicated Signal Quality score (Q 0-100) and Integrity Score (IN 0-100) make every suggestion inspectable, not a black box.
🟢 METHODOLOGY
The engine fetches the closing price of Pair A and Pair B on the chosen Engine TF, computes the log-ratio L = ln(A / B), then derives a rolling z-score using user-defined lookback length. Entry thresholds (Z1, Z2, Z3) define the three tiers of exposure; exit thresholds (hysteresis) define when each tier is scaled back. A cost filter requires the expected mean-reversion edge to exceed a configurable multiple of estimated roundtrip cost before any entry is allowed. The Integrity Gate continuously validates rolling return correlation, ratio drift, and spread-volatility expansion, halting new entries when the pair relationship degrades.
🟡 SIGNALS & ALERTS
Each signal renders as a clearly tagged label on chart showing the action type (ENTRY / EXIT), source tier, target tier, direction (A->B or B->A), z-score snapshot, delta %, and Reason Code. Alerts are provided for: entry and exit events per direction, pending lifecycle (created, confirmed, skipped, expired), trend regime activation edges, duplicate suppression, and configuration warnings. All alerts fire on Engine TF bar close to remain consistent with the visible suggestions.
⚙️ KEY INPUTS
Pair A / Pair B: the two assets to rotate between (same quote currency recommended).
Engine TF: timeframe used for all ratio, z-score, and decision logic (240 / 4H default).
Lookback: bars used for rolling mean and standard deviation.
Entry Z1/Z2/Z3, Exit Z1/Z2/Z3: tiered thresholds for scaling in and out.
Tier Sizing (T1 / T2 / T3 %): rotation size per tier as a percentage of the active pool.
Trade Profile: preset gate behavior (Conservative, Balanced, Aggressive, Volatile Alt, High-Cost, Custom).
Integrity Gate: correlation, drift, and volatility expansion filter with configurable minimum score.
Execution Model: ASSUME (auto-advance), CONFIRM (pending + manual commit), or SIGNAL_ONLY (display only).
🔵 HOW TO USE
Start on the default BTCUSDT vs ETHUSDT pair on 4H Engine TF with the Balanced profile. Keep the chart timeframe equal to or lower than the Engine TF (the script warns otherwise). Watch the status panel for the current tier, direction, confidence strip (Q / IN / PH), and next action preview. In CONFIRM mode, a PENDING card appears when a signal fires; increase CONFIRM +1 to commit the rotation state, or SKIP +1 to discard. Use the Trade Profile dropdown to tighten or loosen effective gates without changing your base inputs.
🟠 LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
This is an indicator, not a strategy; no orders are placed and no backtest statistics are produced. Signals reflect statistical extremes in the pair's log-ratio and do not guarantee mean reversion. Performance depends heavily on pair selection - assets with persistent trends, broken correlation, or structural regime changes can cause extended adverse periods. The Integrity Gate mitigates but does not eliminate this risk. Costs, slippage, tax, and execution details are the user's responsibility; the Min Edge x filter is an estimate, not a realized-cost guarantee. Always validate on your own pair, timeframe, and account conditions before relying on any suggestion.
🔴 RISK DISCLOSURE
Trading and rotating between crypto assets involves substantial risk, including loss of capital. Past or simulated behavior of the ratio does not guarantee future results. This tool is shared for educational and analytical purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. Users are solely responsible for their own decisions and should consult a qualified professional before committing capital. Indicator
Pivot Channel Map [AGPro Series]Pivot Channel Map
🔹 OVERVIEW
Pivot Channel Map is a structural channel engine that automatically detects and classifies market structure channels from confirmed swing pivots. It organises every qualified channel into a clear 8-family taxonomy (Major / Minor × External / Internal × Up / Down) and renders them as a living map of trend, range and reversal context. The script works on all instruments and timeframes, with a focus on intraday and swing analysis.
Instead of plotting a single trendline or band, the engine maintains a continuously updated structural map: active channels, their midlines, interaction pockets around the rails, preserved broken channels, and post-break retest / reclaim signals. A compact right-corner panel summarises live channel counts, qualification state, nearest channel distance in ATR units, and the prevailing Major tilt.
The goal is to give discretionary traders a moderation-safe, clutter-controlled view of where price is inside the broader structure — not to predict future prices.
🔸 UNIQUE EDGE
Most channel indicators draw one or two parallel lines and call it a day. Pivot Channel Map adds structural classification, qualification, memory and post-event follow-through on top of the channel geometry:
- Eight channel families instead of a single pair of rails
- ATR-normalised qualification engine (Off / Balanced / Strict) to filter structurally weak channels
- Broken Channel Memory that preserves invalidated structure as faded historical context
- Interaction Zones (right-edge ATR pockets) around active channel rails
- Post-Break Retest / Reclaim tracker that tags the first valid touch after a confirmed break
- Break and React event markers on Major channels
- ATR-based distance tagging in the info panel (Near / Mid / Wide / Far)
The result is a richer structural read than a standard channel script, while still staying visually clean through emphasis, opacity and clutter controls.
🔹 METHODOLOGY
1. Pivot detection. A configurable Pivot Period drives ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow to produce confirmed swing pivots. The script then classifies each pivot into H / HH / LH / HL / LL / L roles and promotes / demotes them between Major (M*) and Minor (m*) status based on close breaks versus the current Major range.
2. Channel construction. From the classified pivot stream, eight channel families are built:
- Major External Up / Down
- Major Internal Up / Down
- Minor External Up / Down
- Minor Internal Up / Down
External channels trace structural HH/LL extremes, Internal channels trace LH/HL interior swings.
3. Qualification. Each candidate channel is width-measured against ATR and span-measured in bars. The Qualification Engine (Off / Balanced / Strict) filters out structurally weak channels before they are drawn.
4. Life-cycle management. Active channels are redrawn and extended forward each bar until an origin-rail or channel-rail break is confirmed. On break, the previous structure can be preserved by Broken Channel Memory (Off / Major Only / All) with its own style and opacity.
5. Event detection. Confirmed origin-rail breaks produce BREAK events; wick-through-then-close-back moves produce REACT events on Major channels. A cooldown and an ATR-based price-distance filter prevent label clusters when price oscillates around the same rail.
6. Post-break follow-through. After a confirmed break, the script tracks the first valid touch inside a configurable window and tags it as RETEST (channel-rail break) or RECLAIM (origin-rail break).
🔸 SIGNALS & ALERTS
On-chart events:
- BREAK — confirmed close-based break of a Major channel rail
- REACT — wick through the Major rail with a close back inside, filtered by bar cooldown and ATR distance
- RETEST / RECLAIM — first valid touch of the broken rail inside the post-break window
- Interaction Zone contact — visual ATR pocket around active channel rails
- Channel Quick Tags (MEX / MIN / mEX / mIN, Up / Dn) — compact family labels on active channels
Alert conditions (all 16 toggleable, Major alerts On by default, Minor Off by default):
- Break: Major External Up / Down
- React: Major External Up / Down
- Break: Major Internal Up / Down
- React: Major Internal Up / Down

🔸 HOW TO USE
Getting started:
1. Apply the indicator on any symbol and timeframe.
2. Start with default settings: Qualification Off so the full structural map is visible.
3. If the chart feels busy on lower timeframes, switch Qualification to Balanced or Strict.
Reading the panel:
- Major Live / Minor Live — active channels per class
- Nearest Channel — closest active channel, with ATR distance and Near / Mid / Wide / Far tag
- Qualification — current filter mode and scope
- Interaction — interaction zone scope and rails
- Post-Break — tracker scope, window and prevailing Major tilt
Common workflows:
- Trend continuation: wait for price to hold an Active Major channel and look for a REACT at the rail inside the channel direction.
- Break-and-retest: after a BREAK event, watch for the RETEST / RECLAIM label inside the Post-Break window.
- Confluence: use Interaction Zones to spot where Major and Minor rails meet at the right edge of the chart.
- Higher-timeframe context: open a higher timeframe tab with the same script to map macro structure around your execution timeframe.
Suggested defaults:
- Intraday traders: 15m–1H base TF, Balanced qualification
- Swing traders: 4H–1D base TF, Balanced or Off qualification
- Higher-timeframe context: 1D–1W with Qualification Off
🔹 LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
- Pivot-based. Pivots require the configured number of bars to confirm, so the most recent swing always lags by Pivot Period bars. This is a structural property of confirmed pivots, not a bug.
- Redraw behaviour. Active channels are extended forward each bar until a break is confirmed on close. Channel end-points can therefore adjust as new pivots qualify.
- Alerts fire on confirmed conditions. Break and React alerts require barstate.isconfirmed, so intra-bar touches do not trigger alerts.
- Timeframe behaviour. On very high timeframes with limited history (e.g. weekly / monthly on newer instruments), the total pivot count can be small. Keep Qualification at Off on higher timeframes to avoid over-filtering.
- This is a visualisation / structure tool. It is not a trading strategy, it does not manage risk, and it does not generate buy / sell recommendations. All entries and exits are the trader’s responsibility.

Level Survival Map [AGPro Series]Level Survival Map
🔹 Overview
Level Survival Map is a premium support and resistance framework that does not just draw lines on the chart. Every detected level carries a live Survival Score between 0 and 100 that answers one simple question: how well is this level still defending itself right now. The map highlights a single Active Level with an interaction zone and a forward projection ribbon, while nearby weaker levels fade, so traders always know which level actually matters for the current decision.
🔸 Unique Edge
Most support and resistance tools either show static pivots or basic break or retest events. Level Survival Map goes further by measuring the quality of every interaction and turning it into a single composite health score per level. Instead of being left with a wall of equally important lines, the trader sees a ranked structural battlefield with one clearly identified Active Level, a visible interaction zone and a projection ribbon for planning. The Damage State readout, the Fresh and Eroded state semantics, the automatic flip from broken support to new resistance and the cluster fade for crowded weaker levels are designed to work together as one premium, low-noise workflow.
🔹 Methodology
Pivot detection builds the raw candidate levels from swing highs and swing lows using the standard pivot window. A merge filter removes duplicates that sit within a configurable ATR distance of an existing same-type level. Each active level then accumulates four independent components over time. Close Respect rewards closes that respect the level side, for example closes above a support. Penetration Damage penalises wicks and bodies that pierce through the level zone. Reaction Quality rewards strong rejection wicks and bodies moving away from the level after a test. Test Fatigue penalises repeated tests because levels tend to weaken with each new hit. These four components are weighted and combined into a single Survival Score, then clamped between 0 and 100. A structural break caps the score at 35, heavy damage across multiple tests caps it at 28, and a confirmed sequence of opposite-side closes flips the level type while resetting its history. The Active Level is chosen as the closest same-side level to price so that the focus always follows the real decision point.
🔸 Signals and Alerts
The visual output itself is the primary signal. Line colour and thickness communicate level strength at a glance. A focused Active Level is drawn with an interaction zone, a darker core band and a forward projection ribbon so that traders can see the exact price band where reaction is most likely, and how far into the future that band is expected to remain relevant. Labels carry the Survival Score directly, so the ranking of levels is always visible without opening any settings. Broken levels switch to a dashed style and faded colour, and once enough opposite-side closes accumulate they flip type automatically, giving a clear visual signature of structural change.
🔹 Key Inputs
Pivot Left Bars and Pivot Right Bars control how strict the swing detection is. Max Active Levels caps how many concurrent levels are tracked. Level Merge Distance and Interaction Zone are expressed in ATR units so the logic adapts across timeframes and instruments. Scoring weights for Close Respect, Penetration Damage, Reaction Quality and Test Fatigue can be tuned independently, together with the fatigue penalty per extra test and the number of closes required to confirm a flip. Visual inputs cover panel position, label size, line width, focus emphasis, non-focus transparency, cluster fade, focus zone width and projection ribbon length and thickness. A Clean Map Mode is provided for screenshot and publishing workflows where only the Active Level and the nearest valid support and resistance are labelled.
🔸 How to Use
Read the map top down. First, look at the summary panel for the Active Level, its Survival Score, Test Count and Damage State. A Fresh or Strong Active Level defending its side is a high-quality decision point. A Fragile or Eroded Active Level with a Severe Damage State is a warning that the next level below or above is likely to take over. Use the projection ribbon as a planning band for reaction rather than a mechanical entry. Use the ranked non-Active labels to understand where price is likely to travel if the Active Level gives way. The tool is designed to be used as a visual framework, in combination with the trader own execution method, trend context and risk management.
🔹 Limitations and Transparency
This indicator is a visual analytical framework, not a strategy, not a signal service and not financial advice. Survival Score, Damage State and flip logic are deterministic functions of price action and ATR, so different markets and timeframes will produce different characteristic score ranges. Pivot based detection is inherently lagging by the Pivot Right Bars window, which is the expected behaviour of any structural tool and not a defect. The Active Level projection ribbon is a visual planning aid, not a forecast. Past level behaviour does not guarantee future behaviour.

Reaction Efficiency Meter [AGPro Series]Reaction Efficiency Meter
A pure observation lens that scores every pivot-based support and resistance reaction from 0 to 100 and classifies it as WEAK, LIMITED, FAIR, STRONG or EFFICIENT. Designed to answer one specific question on any chart: how well did price actually react when it touched that level? Not a strategy, not a signal generator — a quality meter for S/R reactions.
🔹 Overview
Reaction Efficiency Meter watches pivot-based support and resistance levels and, the moment price touches any of them, opens a fixed reaction window to observe what happens next. At the end of that window the reaction is scored from 0 to 100 using four weighted components — strength, speed, cleanliness, follow-through — and then classified into a five-tier hierarchy. The result is printed directly on the chart as a color-coded label (BULL or BEAR), while a side panel keeps a live summary of the last bullish reaction, last bearish reaction and the currently active event window. The indicator is built as a post-event quality lens for traders who already work with horizontal levels, pivot zones, or structural S/R and want an objective readout of reaction quality instead of a subjective eyeball assessment.
🔸 Unique Edge
Most support and resistance indicators stop at drawing lines or zones. Reaction Efficiency Meter goes one step further and evaluates the reaction itself on a fixed, reproducible scale. Four distinct quality dimensions are blended into a single 0-100 score, and a separate adverse-excursion penalty reduces the score when price violated the level before reacting. The result is a transparent number tied to a five-tier verbal classification (WEAK / LIMITED / FAIR / STRONG / EFFICIENT), which makes reactions directly comparable across symbols and timeframes. There are no repainting signals, no lagging smoothers and no hidden strategy logic — the scoring is purely descriptive and fires only after the reaction window closes on a confirmed bar.
🔹 Methodology
The engine has four clear stages:
1. Level detection. Classic pivot highs and lows are tracked as dynamic resistance and support. Only the most recent N levels per side stay active — older ones are retired, so the chart never clutters.
2. Touch detection. A touch is registered when the bar's range enters a tolerance band around any active level (expressed in ATR units so the logic auto-scales across volatility regimes). A cooldown of N bars between tests on the same level prevents noise from restarting an event too quickly.
3. Event tracking. Once a touch fires, a reaction window of N bars is opened. During that window the script tracks (a) the best favorable excursion in ATR units, (b) the worst adverse excursion in the wrong direction, (c) which bar produced the peak favorable move, (d) the net retained move at window close.
4. Scoring and classification. At window close the four components are combined with a penalty:
• Strength (0-35): best favorable excursion relative to 1.5 ATR reference.
• Speed (0-20): how early the peak favorable bar occurred inside the window.
• Cleanliness (0-20): reduced linearly by adverse excursion.
• Follow-through (0-15): how much of the peak move was retained at window close.
• Adverse penalty (up to -15): applied when price broke through the level.
Final score is clamped 0-100 and mapped to: WEAK (<25), LIMITED (25-44), FAIR (45-64), STRONG (65-79), EFFICIENT (80+).
🔸 Signals & Alerts
The indicator does not emit buy or sell alerts. Its outputs are purely descriptive:
• A color-coded reaction label (BULL or BEAR with score and tier) plotted after each completed window.
• Active zone rectangle and reaction corridor drawn around the touched level while the window is open.
• Touch markers on the bar where a new event begins.
• Live status tag showing BULL WINDOW x/N or BEAR WINDOW x/N during an active event.
• A stateful side panel with Status, Last Bull, Last Bear, Window progress and Mode rows.
All visuals render on confirmed bars only, so the score and tier of a completed reaction do not change afterwards.
🔹 Key Inputs
• Pivot Length — bar distance used to qualify pivot highs and lows.
• Max Active Levels / Side — how many recent resistance and support levels stay active.
• ATR Length — volatility reference for tolerance, corridor depth and scoring.
• Touch Tolerance (ATR) — how close to the level a bar must come to count as a touch.
• Reaction Window Bars — fixed observation length per event.
• Minimum Bars Between Tests — cooldown on the same level.
• Reaction Corridor Depth (ATR) — vertical span of the reaction corridor drawn during the window.
• Display group — toggles for levels, tags, markers, labels, active zone, corridor, panel.
• Theme & Layout — panel theme (Auto / Dark / Light), position, font size, line width and opacity controls.
🔸 How to Use
The indicator is intended as a companion lens, not a standalone system. Typical workflows include:
• Confluence study. Compare reaction scores at different levels on the same chart to see which zones historically produced stronger reactions.
• Bias assessment. Watching whether BULL and BEAR labels on a given timeframe skew toward higher or lower tiers can inform directional bias for discretionary decisions made elsewhere.
• Framework validation. Add it on top of an existing S/R, order block or pivot framework to quantify whether the levels those tools produce actually generate efficient reactions.
• Multi-timeframe scanning. Running the indicator on multiple timeframes shows where strong reactions cluster — often useful for context, not entry timing.
The tool is descriptive and retrospective. It is not designed to replace risk management, structural analysis or the user's own trading plan.
🔹 Limitations & Transparency
• The reaction window is fixed per event. Very fast V-reversals may still register as WEAK if most of the favorable move happens after the window closes; conversely, slow grind reactions may score lower on the Speed component even when the net outcome is good.
• Pivot-based levels are, by definition, confirmed with a lag equal to Pivot Length bars.
• Scores are descriptive — a STRONG tag on a past reaction does not imply that the next test of the same level will also react strongly.
• All scoring uses confirmed-bar logic, so the indicator is non-repainting by design.
🔸 Risk Disclosure
This indicator is provided for educational and analytical purposes only. It is not financial advice, not a trade signal generator, and not a recommendation to buy or sell any instrument.

Cross-Timeframe Value Overlay [AGPro Series]Cross-Timeframe Value Overlay
🔷 Overview
Cross-Timeframe Value Overlay projects up to three independent rolling value
bands — one per selected higher timeframe — onto a single chart. Each band
marks the region where price has been accepted on that timeframe over a
configurable lookback window, built from a volume-weighted or mean-based
anchor surrounded by an ATR envelope. A built-in state engine then classifies
the relationship between bands in real time as ALIGNED, OVERLAP, CONFLICT or
NEUTRAL, so multi-timeframe context becomes readable in a single glance.
🔷 What Makes This Different
Most multi-timeframe scripts stack indicators or draw fixed HTF pivots. This
tool builds a *rolling* value envelope on each timeframe and then compares
them structurally rather than numerically.
• Three independent MTF value bands on one chart, each with its own lookback
context and ATR-sized width.
• Dedicated state engine with four discrete regimes — ALIGNED / OVERLAP /
CONFLICT / NEUTRAL — based on pairwise band geometry, not on raw price.
• Dynamic z-order rendering that automatically draws the slowest timeframe
behind faster ones, and an opacity hierarchy that keeps the slowest band
lightest and the fastest band darkest. Larger structures frame smaller
ones instead of obscuring them.
• Rank-based label placement that prevents collisions when bands overlap in
price, so labels remain readable even during OVERLAP or ALIGNED states.
• Box width adaptively capped so a Daily band cannot swallow a 1H chart.
• Dominant-TF tracking that always reports the highest enabled timeframe and
the price position relative to its band.
🔷 Methodology
For each enabled timeframe the script computes:
• Anchor = VWAP (volume-weighted HLC3) over the rolling window, or HLC3 SMA
when volume data is unreliable.
• Half = ATR(window) multiplied by the configured band-width factor.
• Band = .
Values are requested with lookahead disabled, so historical band positions
reflect only data that was available at the time.
The state engine then evaluates:
• Pairwise overlap — do any two bands share a price region?
• Alignment — are all enabled band centers clustered within a strictness
threshold (Loose 1.2 ATR / Standard 0.8 ATR / Strict 0.4 ATR) of their
mean?
• Disjoint count — how many pairs are fully separated?
These three checks map deterministically to one of four states on every bar.
🔷 Signals and Alerts
Three built-in alert conditions cover the most useful MTF transitions:
• Value Overlap Detected — a new pairwise overlap forms between any two
enabled timeframes.
• Higher-Timeframe Value Lost — price leaves the dominant HTF value band
after being inside it on the previous bar.
• Cross-Timeframe Conflict — the state engine transitions into CONFLICT,
indicating that at least one enabled pair of bands has become fully
disjoint.
All alerts are wired as alertcondition() entries so they can be combined
with the standard PulseWire alert workflow.
🔷 Key Inputs
• Timeframes — enable/disable up to three HTFs and pick any resolution for
each (defaults 1H / 4H / Daily).
• Rolling Window — 10 to 500 bars for the anchor and ATR.
• Band Width — 0.25 to 3.0 ATR half-width.
• Anchor Method — VWAP + ATR or HLC3 MA + ATR.
• Alignment Strictness — Loose, Standard or Strict threshold for the state
engine.
• Show Only Overlapping Bands — hides isolated bands to keep confluence
zones visible.
• Visuals — per-TF color, base opacity, right-edge label toggle, label font
size.
• Panel — position, font size and master visibility switch.
🔷 How to Use
• Read the state first. ALIGNED = all enabled timeframes agree on a common
value region; OVERLAP = partial confluence; CONFLICT = disjoint
timeframes; NEUTRAL = fewer than two active bands or indeterminate.
• Read the Dominant row to see which timeframe currently carries the most
structural weight.
• Read the per-TF rows to locate price as Above / Inside / Below each band.
• Combine the three in a single pass: for example, price Above a dominant
HTF band while the state is CONFLICT is a very different context from
price Inside an ALIGNED stack.
• Pair with your existing entry framework (breakout, mean-reversion, order
flow, trend-following) — this tool is a context layer, not an entry
signal generator.
🔷 Limitations and Transparency
• Box-based rendering is capped at three concurrent bands by design to keep
the chart readable.
• All values are computed with lookahead disabled. Bands update when the
corresponding HTF bar closes, which is the expected behavior for any MTF
tool.
• Volume-weighted anchoring depends on the quality of the instrument's
volume feed; on markets with unreliable volume, switch to the HLC3 MA
method.
• This script is an analytical overlay. It is not a strategy, does not
produce buy/sell signals, and makes no forecasting claim.
🔷 Risk Disclosure
Trading involves substantial risk. This indicator is provided for research
and educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.
Past market behavior does not guarantee future results. Always perform your

Value Shift Ladder [AGPro Series]Value Shift Ladder
🔹 Overview
Value Shift Ladder is a market-structure mapping tool that extracts the most volume-accepted price shelves from a rolling lookback window and arranges them, in creation order, as the rungs of a ladder. Each rung is a volume-weighted zone where the market has recently spent the most time and traded the most contracts. The script then tracks how price interacts with every rung through a full Held → Broken → Reclaimed lifecycle and summarizes the entire chain into one readable ladder state: Rising, Falling, Mixed, Broken, Reclaiming, Building, or Neutral.
The goal is not to predict direction and not to produce buy or sell signals. The goal is to give the chart reader a continuously updated answer to one question: where is the market's current fair-value region, how is that region moving over time, and which prior value shelves are still relevant versus which have been abandoned. This makes the tool useful as a structural reference for volume-profile readers, auction-theory traders, and anyone who builds a bias from accepted-value migration rather than from trend lines or moving averages.
🔸 Unique Edge
Most volume-based tools either draw a single static profile snapshot, or plot every candidate level and leave the reader to filter. Value Shift Ladder does three things differently:
Multi-shelf chronological ladder. Instead of producing one value band, the script maintains a ranked set of up to eight volume-accepted shelves and arranges them in the order they were first registered. This preserves the migration history of accepted value instead of collapsing it into one average.
Proximity-gated visualization. Only shelves within a configurable ATR distance from current price are drawn on the chart, counted in the panel, and fed into the ladder direction state. Distant historical shelves exist in memory but do not clutter the chart or bias the readout — the ladder always reflects the value structure that is actually relevant to the current bar.
Adaptive, confidence-aware breaks. A shelf is not broken on a single close outside its band. Young shelves are strongly protected (3.0 × ATR), maturing shelves require a medium distance (1.5 × ATR), and fully-aged shelves use the user-defined break distance. Shelves that have been re-confirmed multiple times gain a 2× confidence multiplier on top of that, preventing established value regions from being lost to a single volatility spike.
🔸 Methodology
1) Volume Profile Construction
The script divides the rolling lookback window into equal price bins and distributes each bar's volume across every bin it touches, proportional to range coverage. Zero-range bars are assigned to their single bin. This produces a volume-weighted histogram of the lookback period.
2) Shelf Extraction
The top-K bins by volume are selected iteratively. After each pick, the chosen bin and its ATR-neighborhood are zeroed out before the next pick, enforcing a minimum separation between shelves and preventing a single high-volume cluster from dominating every rung. Each surviving bin becomes a shelf, anchored at its bin-center price.
3) Shelf Merging and Confidence
On every refresh, newly extracted shelves are checked against existing ones. If a new shelf falls within the ATR separation of an existing non-broken shelf, the existing shelf's volume is refreshed and its confidence score is incremented. Otherwise a new shelf is registered. Confidence is capped at ten and used downstream to scale break tolerance.
4) Lifecycle State Machine
Each shelf carries one of three states — Held, Broken, or Reclaimed. Held flips to Broken when price closes beyond an adaptive break distance for three recent bars. Broken flips to Reclaimed when price dwells back inside the band for a user-defined number of bars. Reclaimed auto-promotes to Held once the shelf has stabilized past a short age threshold.
5) Ladder Direction
Proximity-filtered active shelves are sorted by creation order. The last one, two, or three rungs are compared to produce a single state: Rising if the sequence is monotonically higher, Falling if lower, Mixed if non-monotonic, plus transient overrides for Broken, Reclaiming, Building, or Neutral conditions.
6) Pruning
Stale broken shelves expire after a timeframe-aware window. A hard cap of ten active shelves is enforced, with broken shelves removed first when the cap is hit.
🔹 Signals and Alerts
The script provides four deterministic state-change alerts, all tied to closed-bar transitions:
— New Ladder Step Formed: fires when a new volume-accepted shelf is first registered.
— Ladder Step Held: fires when an existing shelf is re-confirmed by the rolling profile.
— Ladder Step Broken: fires when a held shelf transitions to broken.
— Ladder Step Reclaimed: fires when a broken shelf transitions back to reclaimed.
These alerts describe structural state changes inside the indicator logic. They are not trade signals and do not imply expected profitability, win rate, or directional certainty.
🔸 Key Inputs
— Profile Mode (Auto / Manual): Auto derives lookback and refresh from the chart timeframe. Manual exposes both for full control.
— Manual Lookback (bars): Size of the rolling window used to build the profile.
— Manual Refresh Interval (bars): How often the profile is rebuilt.
— Profile Resolution (bins): Number of price bins the range is divided into.
— Target Shelf Count: Maximum number of shelves kept active.
— Min Volume Ratio: Minimum fraction of the top-bin volume a bin must hold to qualify as a shelf.
— Min Shelf Separation (ATR): Minimum ATR distance between two shelves.
— Break Distance (ATR): Fully-aged break tolerance.
— Reclaim Dwell Bars: Bars needed inside the band to flip Broken to Reclaimed.
— Max Visible Distance (ATR): Proximity gate for drawing and counting shelves.
— Display options: panel position, panel font size, on-chart label size, alerts toggle.
🔹 How to Use
Value Shift Ladder is designed as a structural reference rather than a signal engine. Typical reading workflows include:
— Bias framing. Read the Ladder state first. Rising or Falling indicates a one-sided migration of accepted value; Mixed indicates balance; Broken or Reclaiming highlights an active transition.
— Dominant reference. The Dominant row in the panel highlights the nearest held or reclaimed shelf within two ATR of price. Use it as the closest structural reference for scenario planning, not as an execution level.
— Proximity discipline. Because shelves more than the configured ATR distance away are not drawn, the ladder always reflects value structure that is currently relevant. When no shelves are visible, the market is between value regions — a context in which mean-reversion assumptions weaken.
— Confluence. The tool is designed to be combined with independent confirmation such as session structure, higher-timeframe bias, or volume analysis. It is not meant to stand alone as a decision source.
🔸 Limitations and Transparency
— Volume profile quality depends on the instrument's volume reporting. On symbols with unreliable or synthetic volume, shelf placement may drift.
— The profile is recomputed on the close of refresh bars. Intrabar readings on the current bar can change until the bar closes; state transitions evaluate the last three bars for breaks and the reclaim-dwell window for reclaims, so fresh transitions can flip until those bars close.
— On extremely illiquid sessions or instruments with frequent volatility spikes, the adaptive-break logic can delay transitions by design. This is a tradeoff in favor of stability.
— Past structural behavior at a shelf does not guarantee future behavior. The tool does not forecast direction and is not a trading strategy.
🔹 Risk Disclosure

All trading involves risk of loss. Past market behavior is not indicative of future results.

Volume Shelf Reaction Map [AGPro Series]Volume Shelf Reaction Map
🔷 OVERVIEW
Volume Shelf Reaction Map is a structural price-action tool that identifies horizontal zones where volume has historically stacked — "volume shelves" — and classifies, in real time, how price reacts each time it returns to them. Instead of showing a static S/R line, it answers a sharper question: when price revisits this level, does it hold, get reclaimed, get rejected, or lose the level entirely? Fresh shelves (never revisited) are visually separated from reused ones, so the chart communicates not just where the levels are, but which ones still carry unused participation behind them.
🧭 UNIQUE EDGE
Most support/resistance and volume tools stop at drawing a zone. This script adds a reaction-state layer on top of shelf detection:
• Five reaction states per shelf: TOUCH, HELD, RECL (reclaimed), REJ (rejected), LOST
• Fresh vs Reused classification — shelves that have already been tested at least once are faded, so untouched structural levels stand out immediately
• Sticky state logic — a shelf keeps its reaction color until a new transition actually occurs, preventing flicker between bars
• Passive-window coloring — shelves whose last reaction is older than the user-defined active window fade to the neutral accent color, keeping old/stale levels visible without dominating the chart
• Strongest-shelf-only reaction tags with cooldown — reaction labels are printed only for the highest-strength shelf and only on actual state transitions, producing a clean chart even on long histories
The result is a volume-aware reaction map rather than a crowded S/R overlay.
🧪 METHODOLOGY
1. Pivot detection — standard pivot highs and lows over a configurable pivot length act as shelf candidates.
2. Volume qualification — each pivot bar is checked against a rolling 20-bar volume average; bars above the Volume Filter multiplier contribute extra weight to shelf strength.
3. ATR-based clustering — candidates within a configurable ATR multiple of an existing shelf are merged using a touches-weighted mean price, stabilizing the shelf location as evidence accumulates.
4. Confirmation — a shelf must reach the Minimum Touches threshold before it is rendered; weak candidates are pruned after one-third of the lookback window.
5. State machine — on every confirmed bar, a shelf's reaction is updated against the prior close's side (support vs resistance context), using an ATR-scaled buffer to distinguish genuine holds and losses from noise.
6. Ranking and rendering — on the last bar, shelves are sorted by strength; only the top N are drawn, with fresh shelves rendered solid and reused shelves rendered thinner and faded.
🔔 SIGNALS & ALERTS
Three alert types, each debounced per shelf so the same state cannot spam consecutive bars:
• Shelf Touched — price range intersects a confirmed shelf for the first time since its last transition
• Shelf Respected — price HELDs, RECLs, or REJs at a shelf (reaction in favor of the shelf)
• Shelf Lost — price closes through a shelf with the required ATR buffer
Reaction tags on the chart (HELD / RECL / REJ / LOST) are printed only for the strongest shelf and only on a true state transition, with a user-adjustable cooldown for historical cleanliness.
⚙️ KEY INPUTS
Shelf Detection
• Lookback Window (bars) — how far back the pivot scan reaches
• Pivot Strength — bars required on each side of a pivot
• Cluster Distance (x ATR) — how tightly nearby pivots merge
• Minimum Touches — confirmation threshold
Filters & Cleanup
• Volume Filter (x average) — participation threshold for strength weighting
• Show Fresh Shelves Only — hide already-revisited shelves
• Max Shelves to Display — cap visible shelves for chart cleanliness
• Fade Reused Shelves — dim reused shelves so fresh ones stand out
• Reaction Sensitivity (x ATR) — ATR buffer used by the state machine
• Active Window (bars) — how recently a reaction must have occurred to show in full color
Visuals
• Label & Panel Size — Tiny / Small / Normal / Large (default: Normal)
• Show Reaction Tags — toggle on-chart state labels
• Tag Cooldown (bars) — minimum bars between tags on the same shelf
Panel
• Show Info Panel, Panel Location (6 anchors), Panel Theme (Dark / Light)
Alerts
• Shelf Touched, Shelf Respected, Shelf Lost
🧰 HOW TO USE
1. Add the indicator to any liquid symbol and timeframe. Volume-aware markets (crypto, index futures, major FX) and timeframes from 15m upward tend to produce the most structured shelves.
2. Start with defaults. The Active Window of 30 bars is a reasonable middle-ground; reduce it on intraday charts (around 20) or raise it on daily/weekly (30–60).
3. Read the panel:
• Active Shelves — how many of the eligible shelves are currently drawn
• Strongest Shelf — the top-ranked shelf by strength
• Current State — live reaction state of the top shelf
• Fresh / Reused — how the displayed shelves split between untested and already-tested levels
4. Use fresh shelves as higher-quality reaction candidates; treat reused shelves as context, not primary triggers.
5. Combine the HELD / RECL / REJ / LOST reactions with your own trigger logic (e.g. break-retest, liquidity sweeps, momentum shifts). This script is a location and reaction tool — not a standalone trade system.
🧱 LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
• This indicator describes historical structure and live reactions; it does not forecast price direction.
• Pivot-based detection requires the Pivot Strength window to complete on both sides, so fresh pivots appear with a natural lag equal to the pivot length.
• On very low-volume symbols or illiquid timeframes, shelves may be sparse or unstable.
• The state machine is bar-close based; intrabar wicks can temporarily intersect a shelf without changing its state until the bar confirms.
• Max drawing limits (max_lines_count, max_labels_count, max_boxes_count) are set to 120; extremely long histories combined with large lookbacks may drop the oldest drawings.

Rejection Block Quality [AGPro Series]Rejection Block Quality
🔹 OVERVIEW
Rejection Block Quality is an ICT-inspired detector that identifies long-wick rejection candles at swept swing pivots and grades each block by objective quality criteria. Unlike Order Block logic — which anchors to the last opposite-direction body before displacement — a Rejection Block (RB) is born from a wick that pierces a prior swing liquidity pool and closes back inside it, with the body confirming displacement on the follow-through bar. The rectangle is drawn from the wick base to the candle body, capturing the exact zone where smart money absorbed the sweep.
🎯 UNIQUE EDGE
Three design choices separate this tool from generic wick or order block indicators:
• Swing-pivot sweep requirement — a rejection is only counted when price sweeps a confirmed swing high or low before the reversal close. Stand-alone wick patterns without liquidity context are filtered out.
• Displacement confirmation window — the candle following the rejection must travel at least 0.6× ATR in the reversal direction, within a 1–5 bar lookahead. No displacement, no block.
• Quality tiering (A / B / C) from three orthogonal factors — wick-to-body ratio, displacement magnitude, and untested freshness. An exceptional wick ratio (≥5× body) promotes a block to A tier regardless of other scores, preserving rare high-conviction rejections.
🛠️ METHODOLOGY
Detection pipeline on every bar:
1. Confirm a pivot sweep using a user-configurable lookback (default 5 bars each side).
2. Check the wick-to-body ratio against a minimum threshold (default 1.8×), with the dominant wick on the sweep side.
3. Queue the candle as a pending block and wait for displacement confirmation.
4. Measure displacement as price travel from the body reference over 1 to 5 bars, normalized by ATR.
5. On confirmation, draw the RB zone from the wick base to the body, record the tier, and begin lifecycle tracking.
Zone lifecycle tracks four events — test (price enters the zone), hold (price exits without a body close through the far edge), break (body close through the far edge), and near miss (price approaches within a configurable ATR band without entering). All events are edge-detected to prevent inflated counts when price lingers near a zone.
📊 SIGNALS & ALERTS
• New block formation label — A / B / C tier plus wick ratio, placed with anti-collision offset.
• Test markers (T) — one per zone entry event, with cooldown to prevent visual clutter.
• Break markers (B) — placed when a zone is invalidated by a body close.
• Wick border highlight — thick colored line on the originating rejection candle.
• Alerts — configurable minimum tier (A, B, or C) fires once per bar close for each qualifying new block.
⚙️ KEY INPUTS
• Detection — Pivot Length, Min Wick-to-Body Ratio, ATR Length, Min Displacement (× ATR), Displacement Confirm Window.
• Zone Management — Max Active Zones per Side, Zone Right Extension, Near-Miss Distance, Near-Miss Cooldown, Break Requires Full Body Close.
• Visuals — Show Zones, Show Tier Labels, Highlight Rejection Wick Border, Show Test / Hold / Break Markers, Zone Fill Opacity, Label Font Size.
• Panel — Show Panel, Panel Location, Panel Font Size, Panel Theme (Dark / Light).
• Alerts — Minimum Tier for Alerts.
🧭 HOW TO USE
Start on a higher timeframe (4H or 1D) to identify macro RB zones, then drill down to execution timeframes for entries. Treat A-tier blocks as the highest-conviction zones, B-tier as situational, and C-tier as context-only. Combine with trend filters, higher-timeframe structure, and risk management — a Rejection Block is a zone of interest, not a standalone buy or sell signal. Use the panel statistics to evaluate how the selected symbol and timeframe have historically respected these zones before committing to them in live decision-making.
⚠️ LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
This indicator is a structural detector, not a trading strategy. It does not forecast price direction, generate entry or exit orders, or calculate position sizing. The Success Rate statistic reflects how often past tests on detected zones held versus failed within the visible history — it is a descriptive metric, not a performance projection. Zone detection is historical and reactive: a block only appears after the displacement bar closes, so interpretation on live-forming bars is tentative. Performance varies by symbol, timeframe, and market regime.
⚠️ RISK DISCLOSURE
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past behavior of any pattern does not guarantee future outcomes. Use this tool as part of a complete analytical framework that includes your own risk management, position sizing, and broader market context.

Power of Three (AMD) Map [AGPro Series]Power of Three (AMD) Map
🔹 Overview
The Power of Three (AMD) Map visualizes ICT's foundational session-framework concept directly on the chart: Accumulation → Manipulation → Distribution. For each daily or weekly session, the indicator automatically segments the AMD phases, detects classic liquidity sweeps during Manipulation, and projects a distribution target based on the accumulation range. Built for ICT / Smart Money Concept traders who want session-aware bias, transparent sweep validation, and forward-looking expansion projections.
🔹 Unique Edge vs Other PO3 Scripts
Most PO3 indicators on PulseWire simply highlight time-based session blocks and leave liquidity detection to the user's eye. This implementation distinguishes itself through:
• Phase detection by bar count, not timestamps — ensuring consistent AMD ratios across every timeframe from 15m to 1D
• Adaptive sweep confirmation — accepts both same-bar ICT-strict sweeps (wick + close-back) and 2-bar delayed confirmations, significantly improving setup capture without sacrificing quality
• Dual-reference sweep logic — checks both the previous session's accumulation range AND the current session's accumulation range, capturing sweeps that single-reference scripts miss
• TF-adaptive target multiplier — Daily sessions project targets at 0.7× accumulation range, Weekly sessions at 0.3×, aligned with realistic crypto volatility profiles
• Transparent dual-KPI panel — separates Sweep Rate (how often valid sweeps occur) from Target Hit rate (how often the projected expansion completes), giving traders honest, verifiable performance metrics
🔹 Methodology
Each session is divided into three bar-count-based windows:
• Accumulation (first 33% of expected session bars) — tracks the initial range
• Manipulation (next 17%) — scans for liquidity sweeps against the previous session's accumulation high/low and the current accumulation extremes
• Distribution (remaining 50%) — the expected expansion phase, measured against the projected target
A valid Manipulation sweep requires a wick penetrating a reference level followed by a body close back inside (classic ICT definition). In Adaptive mode, sweeps can also confirm within a 2-bar window. The detected sweep direction determines the PO3 bias: sweeping a high produces a Bearish PO3 (expected downside distribution); sweeping a low produces a Bullish PO3 (expected upside distribution). A target price is projected from either the accumulation midpoint (default, symmetrical expansion) or the sweep extreme, multiplied by the configured ratio.
🔹 Signals & Alerts
Four built-in alert conditions:
• Manipulation phase started — Accumulation complete
• Bullish sweep detected — Low was swept, Bullish PO3 forming
• Bearish sweep detected — High was swept, Bearish PO3 forming
• Distribution target hit — Expansion reached projected level
🔹 Key Inputs
• Session Scope — Auto (TF-adaptive), Daily, or Weekly
• Accumulation / Manipulation window percentages (defaults 33% / 17%)
• Sweep Reference — Previous Accumulation, Current Accumulation, or Both (default)
• Sweep Confirmation — Strict (same-bar) or Adaptive (up to 2-bar, default)
• Target Projection Method — From Accumulation Mid (default) or From Sweep Extreme
• Multiplier Mode — Auto TF-adaptive (default) or Manual
• Historical sessions to display (default 5, max 10)
• Full visual customization — colors, label position, font size, panel position & theme
• Premium visuals — sweep triangle markers, target price label (toggleable)
🔹 How to Use
1. Add the indicator to any crypto or forex chart with timeframe 1H–4H (for Daily PO3) or 1D (for Weekly PO3)
2. Watch the Accumulation range form at the start of each session — this defines the sweep reference level
3. When Manipulation phase begins, monitor for a wick that sweeps the previous accumulation high/low with a body close-back (triangle marker appears on confirmed sweeps)
4. Once a sweep confirms, the panel displays the directional bias (Bullish/Bearish PO3), the projected target price, and a dashed target zone extends toward the session end
5. Use the Sweep Rate and Target Hit percentages in the panel to contextualize reliability on your chosen symbol and timeframe
6. The panel's Completion counter grows as new sessions close — give the script enough historical bars to build meaningful statistics
🔹 Limitations & Transparency
• AMD phase windows are bar-count approximations — real sessions do not cleanly segment into 33/17/50 splits. The indicator is a structural guide, not a timing oracle
• Sweep detection requires the chart timeframe to contain at least 4 bars per session. On 1D charts, use Weekly mode; on 1W charts, the indicator will display a warning
• The projected target is a statistical expectation based on the accumulation range. The Target Hit rate (shown in panel) reflects the historical frequency of this expectation being met on the current symbol/timeframe — typically 40–55% on crypto majors
• Sweep Rate shows the percentage of completed sessions where a valid Manipulation sweep was detected; sessions without sweeps produce no bias and no target
• Historical statistics accumulate from the first bar available on the chart and reset only when the chart reloads
🔹 Risk Disclosure
This indicator is a visualization and analysis tool. It does not generate trade signals, predict price movement, or guarantee outcomes. Past Sweep Rate and Target Hit statistics reflect historical behavior only and do not imply future performance. All trading decisions and risk management remain the responsibility of the user.

Silver Bullet Window Map [AGPro Series]Silver Bullet Window Map
🔹 Overview
Silver Bullet Window Map is a precision time-based tool that maps the three classic ICT "Silver Bullet" kill zones — compact 1-hour windows where institutional order flow is statistically concentrated — and automatically detects Fair Value Gap (FVG) imbalances formed inside each window. Instead of cluttering the chart with session-wide structures, the script isolates only the high-probability time periods ICT scalpers actually trade, rendering each window as a clean vertical zone with a live countdown, pulse highlight on the active window, and a lifecycle S/R zone for every FVG that prints during the window.
🔸 Unique Edge
Most Silver Bullet scripts either draw static colored backgrounds with no analytical value, or detect FVGs across the entire session and overwhelm the chart. This script does neither. It enforces a strict discipline: FVGs are only drawn if they form INSIDE an active Silver Bullet window. Outside-window price action is deliberately ignored. The result is a chart where every marked imbalance carries ICT-legitimate timing context — not noise. Each FVG becomes a horizontal lifecycle zone (bull or bear) that extends forward in time and is dimmed automatically when mitigated, giving you both a real-time map and a historical window-quality record in one view.
🔹 Methodology
The indicator evaluates the current bar's hour and minute in a user-selectable timezone (New York default, per ICT standard) and identifies three windows: London (03:00–04:00), AM (10:00–11:00), and PM (14:00–15:00). During each window, a three-bar FVG check is performed on confirmed bars: a bullish FVG requires the current bar's low to exceed the high two bars back; a bearish FVG requires the current bar's high to fall below the low two bars back. Gaps are filtered by a user-tunable ATR(14) multiplier to reject insignificant imbalances. Valid FVGs are rendered as time-anchored rectangular zones that extend a configurable number of bars into the future and are marked as mitigated the moment price revisits the opposite side of the gap.
A built-in timeframe guard disables rendering on timeframes of 1 hour and above, because Silver Bullet windows are exactly 1 hour long and cannot be resolved by bars equal to or larger than the window itself. On HTF charts, the panel displays a clean warning message instead of a broken visual.
🔸 Signals & Alerts
Four alert conditions are available: London window open, AM window open, PM window open, and window close. The script is designed for discretionary use — it does not issue buy/sell signals. Its purpose is to put the trader inside the correct time context with the correct structural references, and to let the trader read price action within that context.
🔹 Key Inputs
• Timezone: New York / London / UTC / Exchange
• Historical window depth: 1–30 days
• Individual toggles and custom colors for each of the three windows
• Active-window pulse effect (on/off)
• FVG detection (on/off), minimum size as ATR multiple, zone extension in bars
• Mitigation behavior: dim inactive zones or remove them
• Panel position, theme (Dark/Light), and font size
• Window labels and FVG labels: independently toggleable, font size configurable
🔸 How to Use
Best deployed on 1m–30m intraday charts where the 1-hour windows are visually meaningful. The AM window (10:00–11:00 NY) is historically the most actionable for US equities, indices, and major FX pairs. Wait for a window to open — the background lights up, the panel shows ● LIVE, and the window label appears above the opening candle. Look for a displacement candle creating an FVG inside the window. Use the FVG zone as a retest entry reference with risk defined beyond the gap. The panel's countdown and per-window FVG tally help you gauge window quality in real time. At the end of each day, the L / AM / PM tally shows which window produced the most imbalances — a quick read on session character.
🔹 Limitations & Transparency
This indicator does not predict direction. It does not backtest or display historical win rates — such figures on a time-window tool would be statistically misleading without an execution model. FVG detection uses the standard 3-bar definition; alternative definitions (implied fair value, BPR, inversion FVGs, etc.) are not covered by design. The tool is timezone-sensitive: if your data feed's timestamps drift from the selected timezone's DST boundaries, window alignment can shift by one bar around DST transitions. On timeframes equal to or greater than 1 hour, the script deliberately disables all rendering to avoid producing a misleading visual.
🔸 Risk Disclosure
This script is provided for educational and analytical purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice. Trading leveraged instruments carries substantial risk of loss. Past price behavior around kill zones does not guarantee future results. Use proper risk management and position sizing at all times. Indicator
HH/HL/LH/LL Structure Tracker [AGPro Series]HH/HL/LH/LL Structure Tracker
🔹 Overview
HH/HL/LH/LL Structure Tracker automatically classifies every confirmed swing on your chart using pure Dow Theory — the original price-action framework that precedes and underlies every modern market-structure methodology. Each pivot high is labeled as a Higher High (HH) or Lower High (LH), and each pivot low as a Higher Low (HL) or Lower Low (LL). The sequence of the last four swings derives a live trend state: Bullish, Bearish, or Ranging.
No oscillators. No lagging averages. Just the raw geometry of price.
💎 What Makes This Different
While most "market structure" indicators focus on Break-of-Structure or Change-of-Character logic layered with Smart Money terminology, this script returns to the foundation: the four-swing classification that Charles Dow documented over a century ago. The result is an uncluttered, universally readable overlay that communicates structural context at a glance — regardless of which higher-level methodology you apply next (SMC, Wyckoff, Elliott, or classical technical analysis).
Key differentiators versus generic HH/HL scripts on the public library:
• Live structure range zone that dynamically recolors with the trend state (bullish teal, bearish pink, ranging amber).
• Bull Streak and Bear Streak counters — a quantifiable measure of trend persistence (e.g. "3 consecutive HH-HL swings").
• Semantic break classification: the panel distinguishes a continuation break (HH or LL broken in trend direction) from a reversal break (LH or HL broken against the prior structure).
• Progressive label offset algorithm: when several same-type swings cluster without an intervening opposite swing, each subsequent label is offset further from price, eliminating the overlap that plagues most swing scripts on fast-moving charts.
• AGPro design language: premium info panel, adjustable font size and theme, and a disciplined color palette.
🧠 Methodology
1. Pivot detection. A confirmed swing high is a bar whose high exceeds the preceding and following N bars (N = Pivot Length, default 5). Confirmed swing lows mirror the rule. Confirmation occurs N bars after the pivot bar, never repaints.
2. Swing classification. Each new confirmed high is compared to the previous confirmed high. If greater, it is HH; if lesser, LH. Lows are compared to the previous low: greater means HL, lesser means LL.
3. Trend derivation. If the most recent high is HH and the most recent low is HL, the trend state is Bullish. If LH and LL, Bearish. Any mixed sequence (HH + LL, LH + HL) returns Ranging.
4. Structure range zone. A rectangle is drawn between the most recent swing high and most recent swing low. The zone is always current: as new swings confirm, the zone updates in place. Zone color tracks the trend state.
5. Structure break. A close above the most recent swing high (or below the most recent swing low) fires a break event. The type of swing broken is reported — breaking an LH or HL typically precedes a trend reversal; breaking an HH or LL typically signals continuation.
📊 Signals & Alerts
Three optional alert types are available, each using "once per bar close" frequency to prevent intrabar noise:
• New Higher High confirmed — fires when a fresh HH is classified.
• New Lower Low confirmed — fires when a fresh LL is classified.
• Structure break — fires on a close outside the current structure range, labeled as either (reversal signal) or (continuation).
The live info panel reports: Trend state, Bull Streak, Bear Streak, Last High (with type and price), and Last Break (with type and price).
⚙️ Key Inputs
• Pivot Length — sensitivity of swing detection (2 to 50). Lower values capture minor structure; higher values isolate major swings only. Typical: 3–8 intraday, 5–15 swing trading.
• Max Visible Labels — caps the number of historical labels kept on the chart to preserve a premium uncluttered look.
• Label & Panel Font Size — five sizes from Tiny to Huge, default Normal.
• Label Distance from Price (ATR) — base vertical offset of labels from pivot candles.
• Structure Range Zone — toggle, transparency, and border.
• Trend Background Tint — subtle bullish or bearish chart shading.
• Info Panel — toggle, location (six positions), and theme (Dark or Light).
• Alerts — independent toggles for new HH, new LL, and structure break.
🎯 How to Use
Context tool, not a standalone signal generator. Use the trend state to filter entries from your primary methodology: take long setups only while Trend is Bullish and Bull Streak is building, or vice versa. The structure range zone highlights the active battleground between buyers and sellers — trades taken inside the zone are counter-trend by definition, trades taken on a decisive break of the zone align with the emerging new trend.
Reversal breaks (LH or HL broken) are high-information events — they are often the first objective signal that a prevailing trend is losing conviction, ahead of any moving-average cross or momentum divergence. Continuation breaks (HH or LL broken) are confirmation events that validate staying with the trend.
Works on all markets and all timeframes. Particularly effective on liquid instruments with clear structural rhythm: major crypto pairs, FX majors, index futures, and large-cap equities.
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
• Pivot confirmation requires N bars after the swing; the most recent unconfirmed swing is never labeled.
• In low-volatility sideways regimes, pivot clustering is inevitable — the Pivot Length input should be raised to filter noise on ranging charts.
• The trend state is derived from only the last two swings; it does not account for higher-timeframe context. Pair with a higher-timeframe version of the same script for multi-timeframe confluence.
• Does not provide entry, stop, or target levels. It is a structural framework, not a complete trading system.

Gaussian Channel System [GCS]## DESCRIPTION
Gaussian Ribbon Engine (GRE) is a multi-layer trend analysis system built on the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA), which applies a Gaussian (bell curve) weighting function to price data instead of the linear or exponential weights used by traditional moving averages.
**Mathematical Foundation**
ALMA uses a Gaussian kernel — the same bell-curve distribution found in statistics and physics — to weight the prices in its lookback window. The Gaussian function is parameterized by two values: offset (which shifts the bell curve left or right, controlling responsiveness vs. smoothness) and sigma (which controls the width of the bell curve, determining how sharply weights decay from the center). The formula applies: w(i) = exp(-((i - offset * (N-1))^2) / (2 * sigma^2 * N^2)), where each price bar receives a weight according to its position on the Gaussian curve. This produces a moving average with mathematically optimal noise filtering properties.
GRE constructs five ALMA layers with increasing periods (default 9, 21, 55, 100, 200), creating a visual ribbon. When all five layers align in order (fastest on top for bullish, fastest on bottom for bearish), the market is in full directional agreement. The spread between the outermost layers, measured as a percentage and compared to its own historical average, identifies squeeze (convergence) and expansion (divergence) conditions.
**9-Point Confluence Scoring**
The scoring matrix evaluates: price vs. Layer 1, Layer 1 vs. 2, Layer 2 vs. 3, Layer 3 vs. 4, Layer 4 vs. 5 alignment, Layer 1 slope direction, Layer 3 slope direction, RSI above/below 50, and DI+/DI- directional movement. Signals fire when the score crosses the configurable threshold with ADX confirmation.
**Features**
- Five-layer ALMA ribbon with Gaussian kernel weighting
- Adjustable offset (0-1) and sigma parameters for fine-tuning the Gaussian bell shape
- Ribbon spread analysis with squeeze and expansion detection
- 9-point confluence scoring with visual dot notation in dashboard
- ATR-based dual take-profit levels (TP1 and TP2)
- Squeeze breakout signals when ribbon compresses then expands
- ADX and volume confirmation filters
- Full color-coded dashboard with regime classification
- Multiple alert conditions

Head & Shoulders Auto Detector [AGPro Series]Head & Shoulders Auto Detector
🎯 **Overview**
Head & Shoulders Auto Detector is a precision pattern recognition tool that automatically identifies classic Head & Shoulders (bearish) and Inverse Head & Shoulders (bullish) reversal formations across any market and timeframe. Built from the ground up for traders who want the full lifecycle of a pattern tracked on-chart — not just a label and a line, but forming → confirmation → target/stop outcome — with a transparent, quality-scored framework that filters low-probability setups before they clutter the chart.
Every pattern carries a composite quality score, a symmetry percentage, an ATR-adaptive neckline, two projection targets, and a live status label that evolves through the pattern's lifespan.
🔹 **Unique Edge**
Most H&S indicators stop at detection. This one goes further:
• **Full lifecycle state machine** — every pattern moves through four explicit states (Forming → Confirmed → Target Hit / Stopped / Invalidated / Expired), and the visuals update in real time at each transition.
• **Dead pattern hygiene** — once a pattern fails or hits target, orphan TP and stop lines are removed, the neckline freezes at the decision bar, and the status label grays out. The chart never accumulates stale clutter.
• **Quality-driven visual hierarchy** — high-quality patterns (Q≥75) are rendered with a star marker and full saturation, mid-tier patterns get standard treatment, and low-tier patterns (Q<60) fade into the background so the trader's eye is guided to what matters.
• **Dual-target projection with R:R** — every confirmation displays both a classic measured-move TP1 and an extended 1.618× TP2, each labeled with the exact reward-to-risk ratio calculated at entry.
• **ATR-adaptive everything** — shoulder tolerance, neckline flatness, head prominence, stop buffer, and label offsets all scale with volatility, so the same settings work across BTC 4H, gold daily, or small-cap stocks.
🔹 **Methodology**
Patterns are detected from confirmed pivot highs and lows using a configurable pivot length. For a valid Head & Shoulders, three same-side pivots (Left Shoulder → Head → Right Shoulder) must satisfy:
• Head extends beyond both shoulders by at least the configured ATR multiple (prominence test).
• Shoulder heights differ by less than the shoulder tolerance in ATR units (symmetry test).
• Two opposite-side pivots between LS-Head and Head-RS define the neckline; their vertical distance must be within the neckline tolerance.
• Composite symmetry score (50% time symmetry, 50% price symmetry) must exceed the minimum threshold.
Quality score combines four weighted components:
• Symmetry (45%) — time + price balance between shoulders
• Neckline flatness (25%) — how horizontal the neckline is
• Volume profile (15%) — head-bar volume relative to shoulder average
• Head prominence (15%) — how clearly the head dominates
Confirmation triggers when price closes beyond the neckline level (interpolated for sloped necklines). Stop is placed at the head level plus an ATR buffer to avoid wick stop-outs. TP1 uses the standard head-to-neckline measured move; TP2 extends to 1.618× that projection.
🔹 **Signals & Alerts**
Four alert events available:
• **Pattern Forming** — a valid H&S or Inverse H&S structure has been detected but not yet confirmed.
• **Pattern Confirmed** — close has broken the neckline; entry is live with TP/Stop drawn.
• **Target Hit** — TP1 has been reached on a confirmed pattern.
• **Neckline Retest** — after confirmation, price has returned to touch the neckline (common high-probability re-entry zone).
🔹 **Key Inputs**
• **Pivot Length** — controls swing-point sensitivity
• **Min Symmetry Score** — minimum shoulder symmetry percentage to accept a pattern (default 60, balanced)
• **Neckline Tolerance (ATR)** — how sloped a neckline is allowed to be
• **Shoulder Height Tolerance (ATR)** — how different the two shoulders can be
• **Head Prominence (ATR)** — minimum head extension beyond shoulders
• **Volume Soft Confirmation** — toggle volume influence on quality score
• **TP1 Method** — Classic (horizontal neckline reference) or Measured Move (slope-aware)
• **Stop Buffer (ATR)** — extra room beyond the head level (default 0.35)
• **Max Pattern Lifetime** — bars after which an unconfirmed pattern expires
• Full visual controls: font size, panel position, theme, zone display, label offset, color palette
🔹 **How to Use**
1. Apply the indicator to any liquid market and timeframe. 4H and higher tend to produce the most reliable formations; intraday works but expects more noise.
2. Watch for patterns labeled with a ⭐ and bright color (Q≥75) — these are the highest-confidence setups.
3. Wait for the ✓ Confirmed status to appear before entering; the ⚡ breakout marker pinpoints the exact confirmation bar.
4. Use the TP1 / TP2 R:R labels to size the trade. Stop is pre-calculated at head level + ATR buffer.
5. Monitor the panel stats over time to understand the indicator's behavior on your specific market — Win Rate, Avg Quality, and Last Signal all update live.
6. Consider combining with trend context (a bearish H&S is far more powerful at resistance in a downtrend than in the middle of a strong uptrend).
🔹 **Limitations & Transparency**
• Pattern detection uses confirmed pivots, so signals appear with a natural delay equal to the Pivot Length setting. This is intrinsic to pivot-based logic, not a flaw.
• Quality score and historical win rate are chart-native calculations based on the loaded history; they are descriptive, not predictive.
• The script does not include multi-timeframe confluence or trend filters — these are deliberate design choices to keep the tool focused and composable with other indicators.
• Volume confirmation is a soft scoring input, not a hard filter, since many crypto pairs and indices have volume data of variable reliability.
• Pattern state transitions use close-based confirmation; intrabar wicks do not trigger state changes except for stop/target hits, which are high/low based as expected.
🔹 **Risk Disclosure**
This indicator is an analytical tool, not a trading recommendation or financial advice. Pattern recognition describes what has formed on a chart; it does not predict future price movement with certainty. Always use proper risk management, position sizing, and confirm signals with your own analysis. Past pattern statistics shown on the panel are descriptive of the visible history and do not guarantee future performance. Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Indicator
Multi-Oscillator Consensus Engine [AGPro Series]Multi-Oscillator Consensus Engine
🔹 Overview
Multi-Oscillator Consensus Engine aggregates ten independent momentum
oscillators into a single regime classifier with overlay Consensus Zones,
flip event labels, and agreement persistence tracking. Instead of watching
ten charts separately, traders see one unified answer: are the oscillators
in agreement, and what is the consensus saying right now?
The script monitors RSI, Stochastic, CCI, MFI, Williams %R, ROC, Ultimate
Oscillator, MACD, DMI balance, and Aroon balance. Each oscillator is
normalized to a 0–100 scale and votes bullish, bearish, or neutral against
configurable thresholds. The aggregated vote determines the market regime
and drives everything else on the chart.
🔹 Unique Edge
Most multi-oscillator tools stop at a dashboard or a simple agreement
percentage. This engine goes further:
- Regime Classification — four distinct states (Consensus Bull, Consensus
Bear, Divergent, Transition) instead of a binary signal.
- Consensus Zones — a horizontal price zone is born at every regime flip
and stays alive while the regime holds. When the regime ends, the zone
becomes historical structure.
- Flip Event Labels — regime transitions are marked directly on price
with merged flip + extreme agreement tags.
- Persistence Tracking — streak bars, last flip distance, and historical
extreme rate tell you how trustworthy the current consensus is.
- Label Discipline — cooldown, horizontal stagger, and flip+extreme merge
logic keep the chart readable even in choppy regimes.
🔹 Methodology
Step 1. Ten oscillators are computed with their classic defaults and
normalized to a 0–100 range. Indicators with native 0–100 output (RSI,
Stochastic, MFI, Ultimate) pass through directly. Others (CCI, ROC, MACD
histogram) are rescaled against their own recent range. Williams %R is
flipped from its native -100..0 scale.
Step 2. Each normalized oscillator casts a vote. Values above the bullish
threshold vote +1, values below the bearish threshold vote -1, everything
else is neutral. Vote counts and agreement percentage are computed bar by bar.
Step 3. Regime is assigned from the vote distribution. Seven or more votes
in one direction triggers Consensus Bull or Consensus Bear. A tight spread
(bull-bear difference ≤ 2) triggers Divergent. Everything else is a
Transition state.
Step 4. On every bull↔bear regime entry, a new Consensus Zone is born at
the current close ± a configurable ATR multiple. The zone extends forward
while the regime is active and locks in place when the regime ends. A
maximum of five active zones keeps the chart clean.
Step 5. Labels are rendered only when cooldown and merge rules allow.
Extreme agreement events (80%+ by default) are either merged into the flip
label or drawn separately with larger offset.
🔹 Signals & Alerts
Seven alert conditions ship with the script:
- Consensus Bull Entry — regime has just entered Consensus Bull
- Consensus Bear Entry — regime has just entered Consensus Bear
- Consensus Bull Flip — direct Bear → Bull transition
- Consensus Bear Flip — direct Bull → Bear transition
- Extreme Bullish Agreement — agreement crosses the extreme threshold up
- Extreme Bearish Agreement — same, on the bearish side
- Consensus Streak 20+ — current regime has held for twenty bars
🔹 Key Inputs
- Oscillator Periods — individual length settings for all ten oscillators
- Bullish / Bearish Thresholds — the normalized levels that define a vote
- Consensus Threshold — how many oscillators must agree for a regime (default 7/10)
- Extreme Agreement — agreement percentage for extreme events (default 80%)
- Consensus Zones — show/hide, ATR length and multiplier, max active count,
closed zone trail
- Label Cooldown — minimum bars between flip labels, prevents clutter
- Merge Flip + Extreme — combine same-bar events into one label
- Panel — six location options, Dark/Light theme, font sizes
🔹 How to Use
Trend traders: wait for a Consensus Bull or Consensus Bear regime to
establish (streak > 5 bars), then use pullbacks into the active Consensus
Zone as entries in the regime direction. Exit on opposite regime flip.
Reversion traders: Extreme Agreement events mark moments where all
oscillators are stretched in the same direction. These are classic mean
reversion setups. Wait for a regime flip against the extreme, confirmed on
the next bar.
Regime filter: overlay the panel on any chart and use the Regime and
Agreement readings as a binary filter for your primary system. Only take
longs when regime is Bull, only take shorts when regime is Bear.
Works on all timeframes from 1m to 1W. Higher timeframes produce fewer
but higher-conviction signals.
🔹 Limitations & Transparency
- The oscillator votes use normalized thresholds. On extremely narrow
ranges, the normalization may produce unstable votes. Raising the
Bullish/Bearish Thresholds reduces this sensitivity.
- Consensus Zones are drawn from close price at the flip bar. Large wick
bars may place the zone slightly away from the visual pivot.
- The script is not a standalone trading system. It is a confluence and
regime tool to combine with your own structure, volume, or price action

Multi-Anchor VWAP Grid [AGPro Series]Multi-Anchor VWAP Grid
🔹 Overview
Multi-Anchor VWAP Grid is a volume-weighted analysis tool that plots five independently anchored VWAP lines on the same chart — anchored from swing high, swing low, higher-timeframe pivot, all-time high, and session open. Each anchored VWAP includes optional ±1σ and ±2σ standard deviation bands, forming a dynamic grid of volume-weighted support and resistance levels. When three or more VWAPs converge within a tight ATR-based band, the indicator draws a rectangular confluence zone highlighting the area as a higher-probability price reaction region.
The script is fully automatic. All five anchors are detected by internal engines (pivot detection, session detection, timeframe change detection, all-time-high tracker) and require no manual date picking or retroactive anchor placement. Install the indicator, select which anchors you want active, and the grid builds itself.
🔹 What It Does Differently
Most anchored VWAP tools plot one anchor at a time and require the user to manually place the anchor each time a new swing or event is identified. This script plots five anchors simultaneously and lets them compete for relevance. When multiple independent anchors agree on a price level, that agreement itself becomes the signal — visualized as a confluence zone. A single VWAP is one data point. Five VWAPs intersecting within 0.5 ATR of each other is a structural event.
The confluence detection engine tests each active VWAP as a reference point, counts how many others fall within the user-defined ATR tolerance, and picks the densest cluster on each bar. A minimum VWAP count threshold (default 3) prevents noise, and a lifecycle manager extends, adaptively resizes, and expires zones based on bar age and midpoint drift.
🔹 Methodology
**Anchor engines**
Swing High and Swing Low VWAPs reset on each confirmed pivot using the standard ta.pivothigh / ta.pivotlow detector with a configurable lookback length. HTF Pivot VWAP resets at the start of each selected higher-timeframe period (daily, weekly, or monthly) using timeframe.change. ATH VWAP resets whenever a new all-time high is printed on the visible chart. Session Open VWAP resets at the first bar of each trading session defined by the session window input.
**VWAP calculation**
Each anchor maintains three running accumulators since its last reset: sum of (price × volume), sum of volume, and sum of (price² × volume). VWAP is computed as the first divided by the second. Standard deviation is derived from the variance identity: sqrt(E − E ²), where E and E are computed from the running accumulators. Bands are plotted at configurable multipliers of this running standard deviation.
**Confluence engine**
On each bar, the script evaluates every active VWAP as a potential cluster center. For each candidate center, it counts how many other active VWAPs fall within ATR × tolerance distance. The cluster with the highest count wins. If the winning count meets or exceeds the minimum threshold, the bar is marked as confluence-active.
**Zone lifecycle**
When confluence becomes active, a new rectangular zone is created spanning the min/max of the clustered VWAPs. As long as confluence remains active and the cluster midpoint drifts less than 0.5 ATR from its original midpoint, the zone extends to the current bar and adaptively resizes with rate-limited expansion (maximum 1 ATR growth per bar per direction, preventing erratic stretching). If the midpoint drifts more than 0.5 ATR, a new zone is created. A 5-bar debounce prevents micro-breaks in confluence from prematurely closing active zones. Zones auto-expire after a configurable age limit (default 120 bars).
🔹 Signals and Panel Readouts
The information panel in the top-right corner (position and theme configurable) displays:
- **Price Bias** — count of VWAPs price is currently above vs below, with an overall BULL / BEAR / MIXED classification
- **Confluence** — current status (active with cluster count, or none) and the minimum-count threshold in use
- **Closest VWAP** — which of the five VWAPs is currently closest to price, and the distance in ATR units
- **Active VWAPs** — each enabled VWAP's current value and percent distance from close
Two alert conditions are built in: new confluence zone detection, and price crossing any active VWAP line.
🔹 Key Inputs
**Anchor Points group** — toggle each of the five VWAPs on or off, set swing pivot lookback length, choose HTF timeframe (D/W/M), define the session window for intraday anchoring.
**Deviation Bands group** — toggle bands on or off, configure band 1 and band 2 multipliers, enable or disable gradient fills between VWAP and the first band.
**Confluence Zones group** — toggle zones on or off, set minimum VWAPs required for a confluence (2 to 5), adjust the ATR-based tolerance, define maximum zone age in bars.
**Panel group** — toggle panel, choose location (six positions), select Dark or Light theme, set font size (Small / Normal / Large).
**Labels group** — toggle the compact end-of-line labels that identify each VWAP at the right edge of the chart.
🔹 How to Use
This indicator is designed as a context layer, not a standalone entry signal. Suggested workflow:
**1. Identify structural bias.** Check the Price Bias row in the panel. If 4 or 5 VWAPs sit below price (BULL), the market is trading above its most relevant volume-weighted averages across multiple timeframes and event contexts. The opposite applies for BEAR.
**2. Watch for confluence formation.** When the panel shows Confluence ACTIVE with 3 or more VWAPs clustered, a meaningful volume-weighted support or resistance area is forming. These zones often precede reaction or reversal behavior.
**3. Use bands for context.** When price trades near the ±1σ band of a single VWAP, reversion back toward that VWAP is statistically more likely. ±2σ extensions indicate volatility outliers.
**4. Cross-reference with your own tools.** This script is most useful combined with price action, volume profile, or a trend filter of your choice. It does not generate entries or exits on its own.
🔹 Tips
- On crypto 24h markets, set Session Window to 0000-2359 for a full-day session VWAP.
- Higher Swing Pivot Length values (30–50) filter noise on higher timeframes; lower values (10–15) are better for intraday.
- If the chart feels visually crowded, disable the ±2σ bands or reduce the number of active anchors. All five are rarely needed simultaneously.
- For the strongest confluence signals, increase Min VWAPs for Confluence to 4 — rarer but higher conviction.
🔹 Limitations and Transparency
- The script uses standard Pine Script pivot detection for swing anchors. Pivots are confirmed only after the pivot length has passed, which means swing VWAP anchors are placed retrospectively by that many bars. This is an inherent limitation of all pivot-based tools, not a bug.
- ATH tracking is limited to the visible chart range. On timeframes or symbols where the chart does not load full history, the "ATH" anchor represents the highest point within loaded data, not the true all-time high.
- Standard deviation bands assume price dispersion around each VWAP is approximately normal over the anchored period. In strongly trending markets, this assumption weakens and bands may widen significantly.
- Confluence zones are descriptive, not predictive. They mark areas where multiple volume-weighted averages happen to agree. They do not guarantee price reaction, only indicate where reaction is more plausible than average.
- Session Window input must match the instrument's trading hours to produce a meaningful intraday VWAP. Incorrect session definitions will produce misleading anchor points.
