Call Put Vega Propagation [KG]This is an options-analytics tool for PulseWire. It doesn't plot price — it plots Vega, which is a measure of how sensitive an option's price is to changes in implied volatility (IV). In simple terms: Vega tells you how much extra premium an option gains or loses when the market's expectation of future volatility rises or falls.
The script builds two Vega values using the real Black-Scholes options pricing formula:
Call Vega — sensitivity of call options to volatility changes, based on your Call IV input
Put Vega — sensitivity of put options to volatility changes, based on your Put IV input
Because you can set Call IV and Put IV differently (this is called "volatility skew," which is normal in real markets), the two lines move independently. From these it derives:
Net Vega = Call Vega + Put Vega
Vega Difference = Call Vega − Put Vega
Call/Put Ratio = Call Vega divided by Put Vega
Daily Highs = the peak value each line reached so far that trading day
All of this shows up in a table on your chart, plus an oscillator-style panel below the price chart with the Call, Put, and Net Vega lines plotted over time.
1)How to read the dashboard:
What you see & What it means
Call Vega rising--Call options are becoming more sensitive/valuable to a rise in volatility
Put Vega rising--Same idea, but for put options
Net Vega > 0 (green)--Overall Vega exposure is skewed toward calls
Net Vega < 0 (orange)--Overall Vega exposure is skewed toward puts
Bias = "Bullish (Call Dominant)"--Call Vega is currently above Put Vega
Bias = "Bearish (Put Dominant)"--Put Vega is currently above Call Vega
Signal = BUY--Call Vega just crossed above Put Vega while Call Vega itself was positive
Signal = SELL--Put Vega just crossed above Call Vega while Put Vega itself was positive
Signal = WAIT--No fresh cross has happened
2)How people typically use a tool like this:
Trend confirmation, not entry timing on its own. A BUY signal suggests options-volatility dynamics are tilting toward calls — some traders use this as a filter to confirm a bullish bias before entering a trade based on price action or another indicator.
Watch Net Vega for regime shifts. When Net Vega crosses from negative to positive (or back), it can indicate a broad change in how the options market is positioning around volatility.
Use the Call/Put Ratio for extremes. A ratio far from 1 suggests lopsided Vega exposure, which some traders treat as a sign of stretched positioning.
Combine, don't isolate. Because this is a derived, model-based indicator (not raw price or volume), it works best layered with price action, support/resistance, or a trend indicator — not traded in isolation.
3)Timeframe:
This was built with intraday index/options trading in mind (the inputs reference expiry dates, strike steps, and Indian market time formatting — "Asia/Kolkata" — it's designed for Nifty/Bank Nifty options). Reasonable defaults:
5-minute to 15-minute charts for intraday options trading, where Vega shifts matter most as expiry approaches
1-hour or daily if you want a slower, higher-conviction read on volatility bias rather than fast signals
The Call/Put Rate-of-Change lengths (14 and 21 by default) control how reactive the two lines are — shorter values = faster, noisier signals; longer values = smoother, slower signals. You may want to adjust these depending on your timeframe.
4)A few things to know before trusting the signals-
The Vega values are modeled, not pulled from a live options chain. Spot price, a rough ATM strike, and your manually entered IV percentages feed a Black-Scholes formula — they're an approximation of real market Vega, not the actual quoted Vega from your broker's option chain.
IV inputs are static numbers you set once, not live IV data — so if real implied volatility moves away from your input, the indicator's read will drift from reality.
Crossovers (like Call crossing Put) can produce false signals in choppy or low-volatility conditions, same as any crossover-based system.
5)Disclaimer:
This is an educational breakdown of what the code does, not trading advice. This indicator, like any technical or options-analytics tool, does not guarantee profitable trades and should not be used as a sole basis for financial decisions. Its Vega calculations rely on user-supplied and approximated inputs rather than live market data, which limits their precision.

GEX Levels - Dealer Gamma Exposure GEX DAILY LEVELS — Dealer Gamma Exposure Levels
This indicator plots dealer gamma exposure (GEX) levels as horizontal lines, computed from index option chain data and supplied via a compact text string. It is designed for NQ/NDX but works with any instrument given matching data.
█ METHODOLOGY
The levels follow the standard "naive" dealer positioning convention (dealers long calls, short puts). Per-strike net GEX = gamma × open interest × contract multiplier × spot² × 1%, summed with calls positive and puts negative.
- Call Wall / Put Wall — strikes holding the maximum positive / most negative net GEX across expiries. Dealer hedging around these strikes dampens moves toward them in positive gamma (pinning) and defines major resistance/support.
- 0DTE Walls — the same computation restricted to the current session's expiry, isolating the most reactive intraday hedging flows.
- Gamma Flip — the spot level where aggregate dealer gamma changes sign, obtained by recomputing Black-Scholes gamma across a grid of hypothetical spot prices. Above it, hedging is mean-reverting; below it, hedging amplifies moves.
- Expected Move — the at-the-money straddle price for the nearest expiry: the move the options market is pricing for the day. Fractional bands (e.g. ±50%, ±150% of the straddle) are included because the straddle approximates 0.8 standard deviations, giving each band a defined statistical meaning.
- 1D Min/Max — the one-day range implied by annualized ATM volatility (IV/√252), a complementary volatility-based estimate.
- Max Pain — the strike minimizing total option holder payout at the nearest expiry.
- G+/G− — remaining top strikes ranked by absolute net GEX.
█ WHY A TEXT STRING INPUT
Open interest is static intraday, so gamma levels are constant for the session. Injecting them as data rather than recomputing on chart makes the indicator repaint-free, lookahead-free and provider-agnostic: any gamma data source, or your own option-chain computation, can feed it.
Format: price,label,kind;price,label,kind;...
Kind codes: res, sup (walls) · res0, sup0 (0DTE walls) · flip · emh, eml (expected move) · emb (fractional bands) · ivh, ivl (1D range) · mpain · gpos, gneg
Example: 21100.0,Call Wall,res;20950.5,Gamma Flip,flip;20800.0,Put Wall,sup
█ FEATURES
- Per-family styling: visibility, color, width (1–5), line style for each level type
- Alerts on price crossing walls, 0DTE walls or the gamma flip
- Proximity table showing the nearest level above and below current price with distances
- Label size, offset and price display options
█ LIMITATIONS
Levels are a pre-session snapshot; walls do not move intraday since open interest is settled overnight. The gamma flip may legitimately be absent in strongly positive gamma regimes. Educational tool; nothing here is financial advice. Indicator
Options Decision Dashboard CPR, Expected Move & Day TypeOverview
An index option buyer loses to theta unless the day actually moves. So the first question isn't "which way?" — it's "will this session trend at all, and is implied volatility cheap enough to pay for the ride?"
This dashboard answers that in one panel, before the session gets going:
DAY TYPE — from the Central Pivot Range. Narrow CPR historically precedes trending days; wide CPR precedes rangebound ones.
DIRECTION — from where price sits against the CPR, plus the two-day pivot-range relationship.
THE PRICE OF THE BET — from the volatility index: the expected move it's charging you for.
TIME — days to expiry, and the theta context.
It then states a plain-language verdict — BUY CE / BUY PE / SELL PREMIUM / STAY OUT — with the CPR and floor-pivot levels drawn on price, targets and invalidation marked.
What makes it different
Every CPR script asserts that a narrow CPR means a trending day. None of them check.
This one forward-tests its own core claim. Each session's CPR type is logged at the open, and at the close the day is scored as trending or not (by directional efficiency: how much of the day's range price actually closed away from its open). The panel then reports the trend-day hit rate for narrow-CPR sessions against the unconditional base rate, with a Wilson 95% lower bound.
If narrow CPR carries no edge on your instrument, the dashboard says so — and you should discount its day-type logic accordingly. It is built to be able to tell you it doesn't work.
Why the four layers are ONE tool
An option-buying decision needs all four at once:
Day type without volatility pricing tells you to buy an option that may be too expensive.
Volatility pricing without day type tells you it's cheap without telling you whether it will move.
Either without the levels gives you no entry, target or invalidation.
All three without the calibration is just another confident indicator.
Remove one and the decision isn't decidable.
How it works
CPR — Pivot = (H+L+C)/3 · BC = (H+L)/2 · TC = 2·Pivot − BC, from the prior session. Width is normalised as a % of the pivot and rank-scored against its own recent history, so "narrow" means narrow for this instrument — not a hard-coded point value. (10 points is narrow on NIFTY and wide on a mid-cap.)
Two-day relationship — higher / lower / overlapping / inside / outside value: the classic Pivot-Boss classifications, used as the directional prior.
Expected move — EM = Spot × (IV/100) × √t, shown for the day and to expiry, and drawn as a band. If the session stays inside that band, an option buyer typically loses to theta — which is exactly the trap this tool exists to flag.
Verdict — combines day type, direction, IV percentile and days-to-expiry into one call. Expensive IV can veto a buy; expiry-day theta can veto it too.
How to use it
Read it top-down at the open. Day type tells you whether to buy options at all. Direction tells you which side. Expected move tells you whether the premium is worth it. The verdict is the summary; the levels are your entry, target and invalidation.
Then — before you trust any of it — read the calibration row. If narrow CPR has no proven edge on this symbol, the day-type logic isn't carrying its weight here.
This is decision support. It does not place trades and it is not advice.
Data & scope
Built for NSE:NIFTY / BANKNIFTY index futures on intraday timeframes (5m or 15m is the CPR norm). Needs a volatility index for the expected-move layer (NSE:INDIAVIX by default); without one, that layer switches off cleanly and the rest still works.
Strike step, expiry weekday and volatility symbol are all inputs — so it runs on any index-options market. Set the expiry weekday to match your contract: the exchange has changed the index expiry day before, and this script does not assume, it asks.
On a daily+ chart the panel tells you to switch to intraday rather than showing a confident verdict built on a meaningless CPR.
Non-repainting
Prior-session values are requested as on the daily series, so they're settled before the session opens and never move. The calibration harness logs at the session open and resolves at the session close, on confirmed bars only — a session is graded on the first bar of the next session, from completed data. Intraday readings (price vs level, day-so-far range) update as the session forms; that's a live read, not a repaint.
Concept credits
Central Pivot Range and the two-day pivot-range relationships — Frank Ochoa (Secrets of a Pivot Boss). Floor pivots (R1–R3 / S1–S3) — long-standing public trading-floor practice. Expected move from implied volatility — standard option-pricing arithmetic (Black-Scholes-Merton lineage). Wilson score interval — Edwin B. Wilson. ATR — J. Welles Wilder.
The day-type calibration harness, the expected-move comparison and the verdict engine are the author's own. No third-party Pine code is reused.
Honest limits
The CPR day-type claim is folklore until measured — which is exactly why this script measures it. Calibration figures are in-sample, with no costs, and a proven in-sample edge is not a guarantee out-of-sample. The expected move is a one-standard-deviation estimate under a lognormal assumption; real index returns have fat tails and gaps. The verdict describes conditions — it is not a recommendation — and it says nothing about strike selection, position sizing or risk.
Options carry the risk of TOTAL loss of premium. Nothing here predicts price.

VolEdge: VRP GaugeVOLEDGE: VRP GAUGE — Is option premium rich or thin right now?
Before you sell a single option, you should know the answer to one question: are options overpriced relative to what the market is actually doing?
The Variance Risk Premium answers this. It is the single most important macro-level number for anyone who sells options for income.
Also note that reversal from rich to kind of poorer premiums tends to show market reversals.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT IT DOES
Displays the Variance Risk Premium: the spread between implied volatility (VIX) and realized volatility (30-day historical vol on the S&P 500).
VRP = VIX minus HV30
When VRP is large and positive, options are expensive relative to actual market movement. Premium sellers have a statistical edge — they are being paid more than the risk they are taking on.
When VRP is near zero or negative, options are fairly priced or cheap. Selling offers little edge or no edge at all. Buying vol may be the better play.
The indicator shows the VRP value, its percentile rank over the last 90 days (configurable), a visual gauge, the underlying components (VIX and HV30), the 5-day trend, and a plain-language strategy interpretation.
It also plots a color-coded VRP histogram in its own chart pane so you can see how premium richness has evolved over time.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHY VRP MATTERS
Most retail options traders check IV Rank on individual stocks — "is AAPL's IV high relative to its own history?" That is a useful question, but it misses the bigger picture.
VRP answers the macro question: "Is it a good day to sell options at all?"
When VIX is 20 and SPX has been realizing 20% annualized vol, there is no premium to harvest. VRP is near zero. You are selling options at fair value and taking on risk for no statistical edge.
When VIX is 20 and SPX has been realizing 12% annualized vol, VRP is +8. Options are significantly overpriced. Every strangle, iron condor, and short put you sell has a built-in statistical edge because the market is pricing in more movement than is actually occurring.
This is the fundamental asymmetry that drives institutional premium selling. Implied volatility exceeds realized volatility roughly 85% of the time — that is the variance risk premium. But the size of that premium varies enormously. Selling when VRP is rich compounds returns. Selling when VRP is thin or negative erodes them.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
VRP CLASSIFICATION — FIVE LEVELS
RICH (VRP above 5, percentile above 75th):
Premium is meaningfully overpriced relative to realized vol. This is the sweet spot for premium sellers. Options are expensive, and the market is not moving as much as options pricing implies. Strangles, iron condors, short puts, and credit spreads all have favorable expected value. This is when you can be most aggressive with premium selling — within your normal risk management rules.
ABOVE AVERAGE (VRP above 5, percentile 50th–75th):
Premium is above its recent average but not at extremes. Selling conditions are favorable. Standard position sizing applies. You have an edge, but it is not as large as during RICH periods.
FAIR (VRP between 0 and 5, percentile 25th–75th):
Premium is roughly in line with realized vol. There is a small edge to selling, but it is modest. Be selective — only sell on stocks with individually elevated IV rank. Avoid aggressive sizing. This is the "be patient" zone.
THIN (VRP between 0 and 5, percentile below 25th):
Premium is below its recent average. The edge from selling is minimal. This is a good time to reduce premium selling activity, tighten existing positions, or wait for better conditions. If you do sell, stick to the highest-conviction setups only.
NEGATIVE (VRP below 0):
Options are cheap relative to realized vol. The market is moving more than options pricing implies. This is rare and typically occurs during fast-moving selloffs where realized vol spikes faster than VIX. Selling premium here is unfavorable — you are being paid less than the risk. Consider buying vol instead: long straddles, debit spreads, or VIX calls.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW TO USE IT — PRACTICAL WORKFLOW
Daily pre-market check:
Before entering any premium selling trade, glance at the VRP Gauge. If it reads RICH or ABOVE AVG, you have a green light to sell premium at normal or slightly increased size. If it reads FAIR, be selective. If it reads THIN or NEGATIVE, reduce activity or pivot to directional or long-vol strategies.
Combining with individual stock IV Rank:
The VRP Gauge tells you about the macro premium environment. Individual stock IV rank tells you about that specific stock. The best setup is: VRP RICH (macro edge) plus stock IV rank above 50th percentile (stock-level edge). Selling premium when both macro and stock-level conditions are favorable stacks the odds meaningfully in your favor.
Combining with the Vol Weather Report:
VRP RICH during a Normal or Low vol regime is the highest-confidence premium selling environment. VRP RICH during an Elevated or Crisis regime means premiums are rich but so is risk — size down accordingly.
Using the percentile reading:
The raw VRP number is useful, but the percentile tells you context. A VRP of +6 might be average in one market environment and exceptional in another. The percentile rank over the last 90 days (configurable) tells you whether today's VRP is historically rich or normal for recent conditions.
Using the 5-day trend:
VRP rising means the edge for sellers is improving — implied vol is expanding faster than realized vol, or realized vol is declining while VIX holds steady. VRP falling means the edge is shrinking. A falling VRP during a low-vol regime is a caution signal: realized vol may be catching up to implied vol, often before a volatility expansion.

THE CALCULATION
Realized volatility (HV30):
Standard deviation of daily log returns on the S&P 500 over the last 30 trading days, annualized by multiplying by the square root of 252.
HV = stdev(ln(close / close_previous), 30) * sqrt(252) * 100
Variance Risk Premium:
VRP = VIX - HV30
Percentile rank:
Counts what percentage of VRP values over the lookback period (default 90 days) were lower than today's reading. A reading of 82 means today's VRP is higher than 82% of the last 90 days.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

ALERTS
VRP Rich — fires when VRP crosses above 5 and is in the top quartile. Premium selling conditions are strong.
VRP Thin — fires when VRP drops below 2. Selling edge is diminishing.
VRP Negative — fires when VRP crosses below zero. Options are cheap vs realized vol.
VRP 90th+ Percentile — fires when VRP is in the top 10% of its recent range. Exceptionally rich premium.
VRP Bottom 10th Percentile — fires when VRP is in the bottom 10% of its recent range. Exceptionally thin premium.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
Several PulseWire scripts calculate historical volatility. A few compare VIX to HV. None of them:
— Present VRP with a percentile rank for historical context
— Classify VRP into actionable categories (Rich / Fair / Thin / Negative)
— Show the 5-day trend in the premium environment
— Provide a strategy context sentence for each classification
— Include a visual gauge and color-coded histogram for quick pattern recognition
The Variance Risk Premium is an institutional-grade signal used by professional options market makers and vol funds as a core input to their selling decisions. This indicator makes it accessible to any options trader with a PulseWire account.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
The variance risk premium — the tendency of implied volatility to exceed realized volatility — is one of the most documented phenomena in options markets. Key findings:
Implied vol exceeds realized vol approximately 85% of the time across major equity indices. The average VRP on the S&P 500 has been roughly 3–5 percentage points over multi-decade samples, but varies widely from negative to 15+ during stress periods.
The VRP is compensation for bearing volatility risk. When markets are calm, investors overpay for downside protection (puts), which inflates VIX relative to what actually happens. Premium sellers harvest this overpayment.
However, the VRP inverts during fast crashes when realized vol spikes above implied vol. This is exactly when premium sellers take their largest losses. Monitoring VRP in real time — not just knowing it exists on average — is critical for avoiding the trap of selling into a thin or negative VRP environment.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS NOT
It is not a timing signal for individual trades. VRP tells you the macro premium environment, not which stock to sell or when to enter.
It is not a guarantee of profitability. VRP being RICH means the odds favor sellers on average, but individual trades can still lose. Risk management still applies.
It uses VIX as the implied vol proxy and HV30 on SPX as the realized vol proxy. These are standard institutional measures, but they are not perfect representations of the vol surface for every product or expiration. For individual stock premium selling, combine this macro VRP reading with the stock's own IV rank.
It is not financial advice. It is an analytical tool for your own decision-making.

Arbitrage Scanner Pro [Multi-Asset Dashboard]⚡ Arbitrage Scanner Pro
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📌 OVERVIEW
Arbitrage Scanner Pro is a multi-asset monitoring and arbitrage detection system that displays 3 assets simultaneously on one chart. It detects trend divergences between correlated assets, identifies arbitrage opportunities in real-time, and uses speed simulation to make indicators react as if running on sub-minute timeframes (10s, 15s, 30s).
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 HOW IT WORKS
🔹 Speed Simulation Engine
PulseWire's minimum timeframe is 1 minute. This indicator mathematically scales indicator parameters to simulate faster reactions:
• Normal (1m) → Standard indicator behavior
• Simulate 30s → Parameters divided by 2 (2x faster reactions)
• Simulate 15s → Parameters divided by 4 (4x faster reactions)
• Simulate 10s → Parameters divided by 6 (6x faster reactions)
Example in 15s mode: EMA 20 becomes EMA 5, RSI 14 becomes RSI 4, Supertrend Length 5 becomes 1.
🔹 Signal Logic
Each asset runs the same strategy independently using its own price data:
LONG conditions (all must be true):
✅ Supertrend = Bullish (green)
✅ Close > EMA of Highs (breakout above channel)
✅ RSI > 60 (strong momentum)
✅ RSI > RSI Moving Average (momentum accelerating)
✅ Supertrend outside EMA channel (trending, not choppy)
SHORT conditions (all must be true):
✅ Supertrend = Bearish (red)
✅ Close < EMA of Lows (breakdown below channel)
✅ Supertrend outside EMA channel (trending, not choppy)
The "Supertrend outside EMA channel" filter is the key innovation — it eliminates false signals during sideways consolidation by only allowing signals when the market shows a clean directional trend.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 MULTI-ASSET DISPLAY
The indicator creates a stacked 3-panel layout in a single pane:
• Asset A (Main) → Your chart's symbol with overlay indicators
• Asset B (Secondary) → Normalized candles in 0-100 range with full OHLC
• Asset C (Third) → Normalized candles shifted below with adjustable gap
Each secondary asset displays:
📊 Ticker name (e.g., ETHUSDT)
🏛️ Exchange/broker name (e.g., BINANCE) — auto-parsed from symbol
💲 Live price with up to 4 decimal precision
📈 Bar-to-bar percentage change with color coding
Price normalization formula:
Normalized = (Price - 200-bar Low) ÷ (200-bar High - 200-bar Low) × 100
All indicators (EMA channels, Supertrend) are also normalized to the same scale.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔍 ARBITRAGE DETECTION
The core feature — compares trend directions and signal timing across all 3 assets.
🔹 Signal Divergence (strongest signal):
Fires when two assets generate OPPOSITE signals on the same bar.
Example: Asset A = LONG while Asset B = SHORT → ⚠️ Arbitrage Opportunity
🔹 Trend Divergence (ongoing):
Tracks when assets have different Supertrend directions.
Measured as a Divergence Score from 0/3 (all aligned) to 3/3 (all different).
🔹 Convergence Detection:
Fires when ALL 3 assets trigger the same signal simultaneously.
All LONG → Maximum bullish confirmation.
All SHORT → Maximum bearish confirmation.
🔹 Visual Feedback:
• Yellow background flash → Signal divergence detected
• Green background flash → All assets triggered LONG
• Pink background flash → All assets triggered SHORT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📋 DASHBOARD
The professional dashboard table shows real-time data for all assets:
• ASSET → Parsed ticker name with emoji identifier

📈 USE CASES
🔹 Cross-Exchange Arbitrage:
Monitor BTC on BINANCE, COINBASE, and BYBIT simultaneously. When one exchange shows LONG while another shows SHORT, a price discrepancy exists.
🔹 Crypto Correlation Trading:
Watch BTC, ETH, and SOL together. BTC often leads — when BTC triggers LONG first, altcoins typically follow. Enter altcoins on confirmation.
🔹 Forex Multi-Pair Scanning:
Monitor EURUSD, GBPUSD, and USDJPY. When EUR and GBP both show LONG while JPY shows SHORT, it confirms broad USD weakness.
🔹 Index + Sector Rotation:
Track S&P 500 futures alongside QQQ (tech) and XLF (financials). Divergences between sectors reveal which is driving the market.
🔹 News Event Reaction:
Monitor Gold, Dollar Index, and 10-Year Yields during economic releases. The 10s simulation catches reactions within the first minute candle.

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES
• This uses 1-minute OHLC data — it does NOT create actual sub-minute candles
• Signals fire at bar close, not mid-candle
• The 0-100 normalization can make small moves appear larger
• This is a detection tool — trade execution requires separate infrastructure
• Best used on 1-minute charts where the speed simulation is calibrated
• Always combine with proper risk management

Max Pain Options [QuantLabs] v5 (Balanced)Institutional Grade Options Analysis: Max Pain, Gamma & Pin Risk
For years, PulseWire users have been flying blind without access to Options Chain data. QuantLabs: Max Pain & Gamma Exposure changes that. This is not just a support/resistance indicator—it is a sophisticated, algorithmic model that reverse-engineers the incentives of Market Makers using synthetic Black-Scholes logic.
This tool visualizes the "invisible hand" of the market: the hedging requirements of large dealers who are forced to buy or sell to keep their books neutral.
CORE FEATURES:
🔴 Max Pain Gravity Model The bright red line represents the "Max Pain" strike—the price level where the maximum amount of Options Open Interest (Calls + Puts) expires worthless.
Theory: As OpEx (Expiration) approaches, Market Makers maximize profits by pinning the price to this level.
Strategy: Use this as a mean-reversion target. If price is far away, look for a snap-back to the red line.
🟣 Gamma Exposure Profiles (The Purple Lines) These neon histograms show you the estimated "Gamma Walls."
Long Gamma: Dealers trade against the trend (stabilizing price).
Short Gamma: Dealers trade with the trend (accelerating volatility).
Visual: The larger the purple bar, the harder it will be for price to break through that level.
📦 Algorithmic "Pin Risk" Zones The dashed red box highlights the "Kill Zone." When price enters this area near expiration, volatility often dies as dealers pin the asset to kill retail premiums.
Warning: Do not expect breakouts while inside the Pin Zone.
📊 Institutional HUD A clean, non-intrusive dashboard provides real-time Greeks and risk analysis:
Pin Risk: High/Medium/Low probability of a pinned close.
Exp Mode: Detects if the market is in "Short Gamma" (Squeeze territory) or "Long Gamma" (Chop territory).
HOW IT WORKS (The Math): Since live options data is not available via Pine Script, this engine uses a proprietary Synthetic OI Distribution Model. It inputs Volume, Volatility (IV), and Time-to-Expiry into a modified Black-Scholes equation to probability-map where the heavy open interest likely sits.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION:
Responsiveness: Tuned for the "Goldilocks Zone" (Spread: 12, Decay: 22) to catch local liquidity walls without over-fitting.
Visuals: Designed for Dark Mode. High-contrast Neon aesthetics for maximum readability. Indicator

ATM Pulse (Arjo)ATM Pulse (Arjo) — Real-Time ATM Options Sentiment & Trend Strength Indicator
Overview
ATM Pulse (Arjo) is an options analytics and trend overlay tool that automatically detects the At-The-Money (ATM) strike for NIFTY, BANKNIFTY , or any selected stock.
It merges Call–Put Volume Ratio (CPVR) sentiment analysis with a Chandelier Exit trend overlay to help traders visualize both market bias and trend direction in a single chart.
Concepts & Logic
ATM Auto Detection
The script calculates the current ATM strike by rounding the underlying’s price to the nearest strike interval (e.g., 50 for NIFTY, 100 for BANKNIFTY). It then requests live option-chain data for that strike.
Call–Put Volume Ratio (CPVR)
The Call-Put Volume Ratio (CPVR) is calculated as the call volume divided by the put volume.
CPVR > 1.25 → Bullish dominance (Calls stronger)
CPVR < 0.75 → Bearish dominance (Puts stronger)
0.75–1.25 → Neutral sentiment
This ratio helps interpret real-time option-market positioning.
Chandelier Exit Trend Overlay
Using Average True Range (ATR) , the overlay plots dynamic trailing stops and visual trend zones:
🟢 Green: Uptrend continuation zone
🔴 Red: Downtrend continuation zone
A color change signals possible momentum reversal.
Combination of CPVR and Chandelier Exit
CPVR gauges option-market sentiment
Chandelier Exit confirms price-action direction
When both align (e.g., bullish CPVR + green Chandelier zone), it strengthens directional conviction. Divergent readings may signal indecision or early reversals.
How to Use
Open any NIFTY, BANKNIFTY , or stocks chart.
Add ATM Pulse (Arjo) to the chart.
Select your expiry date — the script auto-detects the ATM strike and displays:
C: Call LTP
P: Put LTP
CPVR: Call/Put Volume Ratio label
Watch the Chandelier Exit colors:
🟢 Green = Bullish trend
🔴 Red = Bearish trend
Combine CPVR bias + trend color for confirmation.
If CPVR is above 1.25 and trend color green → More bullish activity (Calls stronger).
If CPVR is below 0.75, and trend color red→ More bearish activity (Puts stronger).
If CPVR is between 0.75 and 1.25 and the trend color is gray/mixed → Neutral
Practical Use Case
The script continuously updates the ATM strike, CPVR , and trend overlay in real time.
It provides a clear visual snapshot of how option volumes align with price momentum , ideal for intraday or short-term directional traders.

IV Rank Oscillator by dinvestorqShort Title: IVR OscSlg
Description:
The IV Rank Oscillator is a custom indicator designed to measure and visualize the Implied Volatility (IV) Rank using Historical Volatility (HV) as a proxy. This indicator helps traders determine whether the current volatility level is relatively high or low compared to its historical levels over a specified period.
Key Features :
Historical Volatility (HV) Calculation: Computes the historical volatility based on the standard deviation of logarithmic returns over a user-defined period.
IV Rank Calculation: Normalizes the current HV within the range of the highest and lowest HV values over the past 252 periods (approximately one year) to generate the IV Rank.
IV Rank Visualization: Plots the IV Rank, along with reference lines at 50 (midline), 80 (overbought), and 20 (oversold), making it easy to interpret the relative volatility levels.
Historical Volatility Plot: Optionally plots the Historical Volatility for additional reference.
Usage:
IV Rank : Use the IV Rank to assess the relative level of volatility. High IV Rank values (close to 100) indicate that the current volatility is high relative to its historical range, while low IV Rank values (close to 0) indicate low relative volatility.
Reference Lines: The overbought (80) and oversold (20) lines help identify extreme volatility conditions, aiding in trading decisions.
Example Use Case:
A trader can use the IV Rank Oscillator to identify potential entry and exit points based on the volatility conditions. For instance, a high IV Rank may suggest a period of high market uncertainty, which could be a signal for options traders to consider strategies like selling premium. Conversely, a low IV Rank might indicate a more stable market condition.
Parameters:
HV Calculation Length: Adjustable period length for the historical volatility calculation (default: 20 periods).
This indicator is a powerful tool for options traders, volatility analysts, and any market participant looking to gauge market conditions based on historical volatility patterns.

Supertrend x4 w/ Cloud FillSuperTrend is one of the most common ATR based trailing stop indicators.
The average true range (ATR) plays an important role in 'Supertrend' as the indicator uses ATR to calculate its value. The ATR indicator signals the degree of price volatility. In this version you can change the ATR calculation method from the settings. Default method is RMA, when the alternative method is SMA.
The indicator is easy to use and gives an accurate reading about an ongoing trend. It is constructed with two parameters, namely period and multiplier.
The implementation of 4 supertrends and cloud fills allows for a better overall picture of the higher and lower timeframe trend one is trading a particular security in.
The default values used while constructing a supertrend indicator is 10 for average true range or trading period.
The key aspect what differentiates this indicator is the Multiplier. The multiplier is based on how much bigger of a range you want to capture. In our case by default, it starts with 2.636 and 3.336 for Set 1 & Set 2 respectively giving a narrow band range or Short Term (ST) timeframe visual. On the other hand, the multipliers for Set 3 & Set 4 goes up to 9.736 and 8.536 for the multiplier respectively giving a large band range or Long Term (LT) timeframe visual.
A ‘Supertrend’ indicator can be used on equities, futures or forex, or even crypto markets and also on minutes, hourly, daily, and weekly charts as well, but generally, it fails in a sideways-moving market. That's why with this implementation it enables one to stay out of the market if they choose to do so when the market is ranging.
This Supertrend indicator is modelled around trends and areas of interest versus buy and sell signals. Therefore, to better understand this indicator, one must calibrate it to one's need first, which means day trader (shorter timeframe) vs swing trader (longer time frame), and then understand how it can be utilized to improve your entries, exits, risk and position sizing.
Example:
In this chart shown above using SPX500:OANDA, 15R Time Frame, we can see that there is at any give time 1 to 4 clouds/bands of Supertrends. These four are called Set 1, Set 2, Set 3 and Set 4 in the indicator. Set's 1 & 2 are considered short term, whereas Set's 3 & 4 are considered long term. The term short and long are subjective based on one's trading style. For instance, if a person is a 1min chart trader, which would be short term, to get an idea of the trend you would have to look at a longer time frame like a 5min for instance. Similarly, in this cases the timeframes = Multiplier value that you set.
Optional Ideas:
+ Apply some basic EMA/SMA indicator script of your choice for easier understanding of the trend or to allow smooth transition to using this indicator.
+ Split the chart into two vertical layouts and applying this same script coupled with xdecow's 2 WWV candle painting script on both the layouts. Now you can use the left side of the chart to show all bearish move candles only (make the bullish candles transparent) and do the opposite for the right side of the chart. This way you enhance focus to just stick to one side at a given time.

Cox-Ross-Rubinstein Binomial Tree Options Pricing Model [Loxx]Cox-Ross-Rubinstein Binomial Tree Options Pricing Model is an options pricing panel calculated using an N-iteration (limited to 300 in Pine Script due to matrices size limits) "discrete-time" (lattice based) method to approximate the closed-form Black–Scholes formula. Joshi (2008) outlined varying binomial options pricing model furnishes a numerical approach for the valuation of options. Significantly, the American analogue can be estimated using the binomial tree. This indicator is the complex calculation for Binomial option pricing. Most folks take a shortcut and only calculate 2 iterations. I've coded this to allow for up to 300 iterations. This can be used to price American Puts/Calls and European Puts/Calls. I'll be updating this indicator will be updated with additional features over time. If you would like to learn more about options, I suggest you check out the book textbook Options, Futures and other Derivative by John C Hull.
***This indicator only works on the daily timeframe!***
A quick graphic of what this all means:
In the graphic, "n" are the steps, in this case we can do up to 300, in production we'd need to do 5-15K. That's a lot of steps! You can see here how the binomial tree fans out. As I said previously, most folks only calculate 2 steps, here we are calculating up to 300.

Limitations of Black Scholes options pricing model
This is a widely used and well-known options pricing model, factors in current stock price, options strike price, time until expiration (denoted as a percent of a year), and risk-free interest rates. The Black-Scholes Model is quick in calculating any number of option prices. But the model cannot accurately calculate American options, since it only considers the price at an option's expiration date. American options are those that the owner may exercise at any time up to and including the expiration day.
What are Binomial Trees in options pricing?
A useful and very popular technique for pricing an option involves constructing a binomial tree. This is a diagram representing different possible paths that might be followed by the stock price over the life of an option. The underlying assumption is that the stock price follows a random walk. In each time step, it has a certain probability of moving up by a certain percentage amount and a certain probability of moving down by a certain percentage amount. In the limit, as the time step becomes smaller, this model is the same as the Black–Scholes–Merton model.
What is the Binomial options pricing model ?
This model uses a tree diagram with volatility factored in at each level to show all possible paths an option's price can take, then works backward to determine one price. The benefit of the Binomial Model is that you can revisit it at any point for the possibility of early exercise. Early exercise is executing the contract's actions at its strike price before the contract's expiration. Early exercise only happens in American-style options. However, the calculations involved in this model take a long time to determine, so this model isn't the best in rushed situations.
What is the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein Model?
The Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model can be used to price European and American options on stocks without dividends, stocks and stock indexes paying a continuous dividend yield, futures, and currency options. Option pricing is done by working backwards, starting at the terminal date. Here we know all the possible values of the underlying price. For each of these, we calculate the payoffs from the derivative, and find what the set of possible derivative prices is one period before. Given these, we can find the option one period before this again, and so on. Working ones way down to the root of the tree, the option price is found as the derivative price in the first node.
Inputs
Spot price: select from 33 different types of price inputs
Calculation Steps: how many iterations to be used in the Binomial model. In practice, this number would be anywhere from 5000 to 15000, for our purposes here, this is limited to 300
Strike Price: the strike price of the option you're wishing to model
% Implied Volatility: here you can manually enter implied volatility
Historical Volatility Period: the input period for historical volatility; historical volatility isn't used in the CRRBT process, this is to serve as a sort of benchmark for the implied volatility,
Historical Volatility Type: choose from various types of implied volatility, search my indicators for details on each of these
Option Base Currency: this is to calculate the risk-free rate, this is used if you wish to automatically calculate the risk-free rate instead of using the manual input. this uses the 10 year bold yield of the corresponding country
