TICK & ADD Market Internals SuiteOverview: This is the ultimate Market Internals tool designed for professional SPX/ES and NQ intraday traders.
Traders often monitor both TICK (for short-term timing) and ADD (for daily trend context). However, displaying them on the same chart is usually problematic due to their different scales (TICK ±1000 vs. ADD ±2000), causing chart compression.
Market Internals Suite solves this with a smart "Visual Scaling" algorithm, perfectly fusing TICK Candles and the ADD Line into a single, coherent pane.
Key Features
1.Hybrid Visualization:
· TICK (Foreground): Displayed as OHLC Candles to capture instant liquidity sweeps and wicks.
· ADD (Background): Displayed as a clean Line to show the underlying market breadth trend without clutter.
2.Smart Visual Scaling:
· To prevent chart distortion, the ADD line is visually scaled down (Default Ratio: 1.5).
· This aligns the ADD trend volatility with the TICK range, allowing you to instantly spot divergences or resonance between sentiment and trend.
3.Real-Time Data Dashboard:
· Never lose track of the actual numbers. A dashboard in the top-right corner displays the TRUE values for both TICK and ADD (unscaled).
· Customizable Text Size: You can adjust the dashboard font size (Small/Normal/Large/Huge) in the settings to fit your screen.
4.TICK Extreme Alerts:
· Visual Highlight: The chart background highlights (Green/Red) only when TICK hits the extreme ±1000 levels.
· The ADD line remains clean and alert-free to serve as a stable reference.
Strategy: Context + Timing:
1.Trend Resonance
When the ADD line trends upward and TICK candles consistently maintain levels above zero, it indicates a healthy, strong trend. This is a signal to look for trend-following long setups.
2.Divergence Analysis (The "Holy Grail" Signal)
This combination view makes spotting internal divergences incredibly easy:
· Bearish Divergence: When Price makes a New High, but the ADD line or TICK peaks make a Lower High. This suggests buying exhaustion beneath the surface and often precedes a reversal down.
· Bullish Divergence: When Price makes a New Low, but the ADD line or TICK lows make a Higher Low. This suggests that selling pressure is being absorbed, signaling a potential bounce or reversal up. Indicator
TICK Indicator with Extreme AlertsOverview:
This indicator is designed to provide intraday traders (especially those trading SPX, ES, and NQ) with a clearer NYSE TICK analysis tool featuring visual alerts. Unlike traditional TICK line charts, this indicator utilizes OHLC Candlesticks to display data, allowing you to fully view the Open, High, Low, and Close within a specific timeframe, thereby capturing instantaneous liquidity sweeps.
Core Features & Logic:
Candlestick Visualization (OHLC Candles): Uses the USI:TICK.US data source by default. The candlestick patterns allow you to clearly see if the TICK pierced key levels intraday but retraced by the close—vital information that standard line charts often miss.
Dual Key Level System: The indicator is designed with two independent reference tiers for trend observation and reversal detection:
Reference Lines (+/- 800): Marked by gray dashed lines. These represent the standard bull/bear dividing zones. When TICK sustains above +800 or below -800, it typically indicates a strong trending market.
Extreme Alerts (+/- 1000): These thresholds are used to identify extreme market sentiment (overbought/oversold conditions).
Background Highlight Alerts (Visual Alerts): To reduce screen-watching fatigue, the indicator automatically highlights the candlestick background when extreme market sentiment occurs:
Green Background: Triggered when TICK High breaks above +1000. Represents extreme buying sentiment, potentially indicating exhaustion or a short squeeze.
Red Background: Triggered when TICK Low drops below -1000. Represents extreme panic selling (Washout), often serving as a potential signal for an intraday reversal or a short-term bottom.
Custom Settings:
All thresholds (800 reference lines, 1000 alert lines) are fully adjustable in the settings.
All colors (Candles, Reference Lines, Background Alert Colors) can be customized.
Use Cases: This tool is ideal for intraday counter-trend or trend-following trading when combined with Price Action analysis and key Support & Resistance levels. Indicator
Tick-Based Delta Volume BubblesTICK-BASED DELTA VOLUME BUBBLES
OVERVIEW
A real-time order flow indicator that displays volume delta at the tick level, helping traders identify buying and selling pressure as it develops during live market hours. Unlike traditional volume delta indicators that rely on bar close data, this indicator captures actual tick-by-tick volume changes and directional bias, providing granular insight into market dynamics.
HOW IT WORKS
The indicator monitors live tick data during real-time trading by tracking volume increases between consecutive price updates. Each time volume increments, the script calculates the volume delta, determines price direction, assigns directional bias to the volume, and accumulates net delta for each bar.
This methodology is identical to the tick detection mechanism used in professional cumulative volume delta tools, ensuring accuracy and reliability.
FEATURES
Real-Time Tick Detection
- Captures genuine tick-by-tick volume flow using varip persistence
- Not estimated from OHLC data
- Processes actual market ticks as they occur
Adaptive Bubble Sizing
- Bubbles scale based on delta strength relative to a customizable moving average (default 20 bars)
- Highlights significant order flow imbalances
- Five size levels from tiny to huge
Dual Display Modes
- Normal Mode: Sized bubbles with optional volume labels positioned at bar midpoint
- Minimal Mode: Clean dots above/below bars for unobtrusive delta visualization
Flow Classification
- Aggressive Buy (bright green): Strong positive delta with greater than 1.2x strength
- Aggressive Sell (bright red): Strong negative delta with greater than 1.2x strength
- Passive Buy (light green): Moderate positive delta
- Passive Sell (light red): Moderate negative delta
Intensity Mode (Optional)
- Gray: Low intensity (less than 0.5x average)
- Blue: Medium intensity (0.5-1.0x average)
- Orange: High intensity (1.0-2.0x average)
- Red: Extreme intensity (greater than 2.0x average)
Smart Filtering
- Percentile-based filters (customizable) ensure only significant delta events are displayed
- Reduces chart clutter while highlighting important order flow
- Separate thresholds for bubble display and numeric labels
Data Collection Status
- Optional progress box in top-right corner
- Shows real-time bar collection progress
- Displays percentage completion and bars remaining
- Automatically hides when sufficient data is collected
Hide Until Ready Option
- Suppresses bubble display until the averaging period is complete
- Prevents misleading signals from incomplete data
- Default requires 20 bars before displaying bubbles
SETTINGS
Delta Average Length (1-200, default 20)
- Lookback period for calculating delta strength baseline
- Higher values = longer-term delta comparison
- Lower values = more sensitive to recent changes
Hide Bubbles Until Enough Data

- Ensures reliable delta strength calculations
Show Data Collection Status Box
- Displays progress indicator during initialization
- Can be disabled if you understand the warmup period
Minimal Mode
- Switches to simple dot display above/below bars
- Green dots above bars = positive delta
- Red dots below bars = negative delta
- Maintains color intensity or flow type classification
Show Bubbles
- Master toggle for bubble display
Bubble Volume Percentile (0-100, default 60)
- Minimum percentile rank required to display bubble
- Higher values = fewer, more significant bubbles
- Lower values = more bubbles displayed
Show Numbers in Bubbles
- Toggle delta value labels
- Only appears in normal mode
- Disabled automatically in minimal mode
Label Volume Percentile (0-100, default 90)
- Higher threshold for displaying numeric labels
- Typically set higher than bubble percentile
- Reduces label clutter on chart
Intensity Mode
- Switch from flow-type coloring to magnitude-based coloring
- Useful for identifying volume spikes regardless of direction
IMPORTANT NOTES
Real-Time Only: This indicator processes live tick data and does not provide historical analysis. It begins collecting data when added to a live chart.
Volume Required: Symbol must have volume data available. Will not function on symbols without volume (most forex pairs from retail brokers).
Initialization Period: Requires the specified number of bars (default 20) to calculate accurate delta strength. Use the "Hide Until Ready" option to prevent premature signals.
Market Hours: Only collects data during live market hours. Does not backfill historical data.

Innocent Heikin Ashi Ethereum StrategyHello there, im back!
If you are familiar with my previous scripts, this one will seem like the future's nostalgia!
Functionality:
As you can see, all candles are randomly colored. This has no deeper meaning, it should remind you to switch to Heikin Ashi. The Strategy works on standard candle stick charts, but should be used with Heikin Ashi to see the actual results. (Regular OHLC calculations are included.)
Same as in my previous scripts we import our PVSRA Data from @TradersReality open source Indicator.
With this data and the help of moving averages, we have got an edge in the market.
Signal Logic:
When a "violently green" candle appears (high buy volume + tick speed) above the 50 EMA indicates a change in trend and sudden higher prices. Depending on OHLC of the candle itself and volume, Take Profit and Stop Loss is calculated. (The price margin is the only adjustable setting). Additionally, to make this script as simple and easily useable as possible, all other adjustable variables have been already set to the best suitable value and the chart was kept plain, except for the actual entries and exits.
Basic Settings and Adjustables:
Main Input 1: TP and SL combined price range. (Double, Triple R:R equally.)
Trade Inputs: All standard trade size and contract settings for testing available.
Special Settings:
Checkbox 1: Calculate Signal in Heikin Ashi chart, including regular candle OHLC („Open, High, Low, Close“)
Checkbox 2/3: Calculate by order fill or every tick.
Checkbox 4: Possible to fill orders on bar close.
Timeframe and practical usage:
Made for the 5 Minute to 1 hour timeframe.
Literally ONLY works on Ethereum and more or less on Bitcoin.
EVERY other asset has absolute 0% profitability.
Have fun and share with your friends!
Thanks for using!

Tick CVD [Kioseff Trading]Hello!
This script "Tick CVD" employs live tick data to calculate CVD and volume delta! No tick chart required.
Features
Live price ticks are recorded
CVD calculated using live ticks
Delta calculated using live ticks
Tick-based HMA, WMA, EMA, or SMA for CVD and price
Key tick levels (S/R CVD & price) are recorded and displayed
Price/CVD displayable as candles or lines
Polylines are used - data visuals are not limited to 500 points.
Efficiency mode - remove all the bells and whistles to capitalize on efficiently calculated/displayed tick CVD and price
How it works
While historical tick-data isn't available to non-professional subscribers, live tick data is programmatically accessible. Consequently, this indicator records live tick data to calculate CVD, delta, and other metrics for the user!
Generally, Pine Scripts use the following rules to calculate volume/price-related metrics:
Bullish Volume: When the close price is greater than the open price.
Bearish Volume: When the close price is less than the open price.
This script, however, improves on that logic by utilizing live ticks. Instead of relying on time-series charts, it records up ticks as buying volume and down ticks as selling volume. This allows the script to create a more accurate CVD, delta, or price tick chart by tracking real-time buying and selling activity.
Price can tick fast; therefore, tick aggregation can occur. While tick aggregation isn't necessarily "incorrect", if you prefer speed and efficiency it's advised to enable "efficiency mode" in a fast market.
The image above highlights the tick CVD and price tick graph!
Green price tick graph = price is greater than its origin point (first script load)
Red price tick graph = price is less than its origin point
Blue tick CVD graph = CVD, over the calculation period, is greater than 0.
Red tick CVD graph = CVD is less than 0 over the calculation period.
The image above explains the right-oriented scales. The upper scale is for the price graph and the lower scale for the CVD graph.
The image above explains the circles superimposed on the scale lines for the price graph and the CVD graph.
The image above explains the "wavy" lines shown by the indicator. The wavy lines correspond to tick delta - whether the recorded tick was an uptick or down tick and whether buy volume or sell volume transpired.
The image above explains the blue/red boxes displayed by the indicator. The boxes offer an alternative visualization of tick delta, including the magnitude of buying/selling volume for the recorded tick.
Blue boxes = buying volume
Red boxes = selling volume
Bright blue = high buying volume (relative)
Bright red = high selling volume (relative)
Dim blue = low buying volume (relative)
Dim red = low selling volume (relative)
The numbers displayed in the box show the numbered tick and the volume delta recorded for the tick.
The image above further explains visuals for the CVD graph.
Dotted red lines indicate key CVD peaks, while dotted blue lines indicate key CVD bottoms.
The white dotted line reflects the CVD average of your choice: HMA, WMA, EMA, SMA.
The image above offers a similar explanation of visuals for the price graph.

The image above shows the indicator when efficiency mode is enabled. When trading a fast market, enabling efficiency mode is advised - the script will perform quicker.
Of course, thank you to @RicardoSantos for his awesome library I use in almost every script :D

Custom Time Frame (CTF)This indicator allows users to create their own arbitrary time frames for chart analysis. It features a moving average, providing an additional layer of analysis, and offers flexibility through various open settings.
In terms of user settings and usage, the indicator provides several options. Users can choose their interval style, opting for either tick-based or time-based intervals. This flexibility allows for a more granular approach to data analysis, catering to different trading strategies and preferences. The number of ticks or the amount of time for each candle can be adjusted, enabling traders to set the granularity of the data to their liking. Color settings are also customizable, with options for setting colors for bullish and bearish indicators, adding a visual dimension to the analysis.
The average line parameters are an important aspect of this indicator. Users can adjust the length, ripple, type, color, and line width of the average line. The ripple setting, in particular, impacts the smoothness of the filter. With type II setting, the smoothing is increased, making it suitable for traders who prefer a more smoothed out moving average. Conversely, the type I setting decreases the smoothing, which might be preferred by those who want a more responsive indicator.
The use of the Chebyshev filter is a significant feature of this indicator. This filter is chosen for its high-performance smoothing capabilities with minimal data requirements. This ensures that the moving average appears quickly and accurately, which is crucial in real-time chart analysis. An important point to note is that when the moving average is enabled, it decreases the maximum number of candles that can be displayed on the chart. However, this is offset by the enhanced analytical precision provided by the moving average.
In summary, this indicator is especially beneficial for traders without access to premium accounts. It offers the capability to create low or custom time frame charts. The flexibility in settings, coupled with the inclusion of a Chebyshev filter for the moving average, makes it a versatile and valuable tool for detailed market analysis. It caters to a wide range of trading styles and strategies, making it a useful addition to any trader's toolkit. Indicator
