🔸 Channel Zones + VWAP [Multi-Timeframe]Channel Zones + VWAP for intraday trading, scalping, or swing setups.
🔸 1. Trend + Zone Confluence
If price is near the lower red channel and VWAP is green, look for long entries.
If price hits the upper green channel and VWAP turns red, look for short setups.
🔸 2. HTF Confirmation
Use the HTF zones (lime/orange) as bigger picture support/resistance.
For example:
If on 15m chart, set HTF to 1h or 4h.
If price hits HTF Support + VWAP is green, look for reversal entries.
If price is stuck between HTF zones, consider range-bound plays.
🔸 3. Avoid False Breakouts
If price breaks a channel but VWAP doesn't confirm (e.g., VWAP still red while price breaks above), consider it a fakeout.
This keeps you aligned with volume and mean-reversion logic.
🔸 4. Scalping Plays
Look for price touching current channel levels while diverging from VWAP.
Enter when:
Price is far from VWAP → Expect pullback.
Price is at red/green line → Potential bounce zone.

VWAP Separation Oscillator V5 (No Arrows)Okay, here is a draft description you can adapt for your TradingView publication. It starts from the basics and explains the concepts behind the indicator and how to interpret its visual elements.
VWAP Separation Oscillator
Summary
This indicator provides a normalized view of how far the current price has deviated from its Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP), helping traders identify potentially overbought or oversold conditions relative to recent VWAP dynamics. It calculates the price separation from VWAP and expresses it in terms of standard deviations (a Z-score), making it easier to gauge the statistical significance of the deviation.
Core Concepts Explained
What is VWAP?
VWAP stands for Volume-Weighted Average Price. It's a trading benchmark calculated by taking the total dollar value traded for every transaction (price multiplied by volume) and dividing it by the total shares traded for the day (or other chosen period).
Unlike a simple moving average, VWAP gives more weight to price levels where more volume occurred. Many institutional traders use it as a reference point for execution quality.
This indicator allows you to choose the "Anchor Period" (Session, Week, Month, etc.) which determines when the VWAP calculation resets.
What is VWAP Separation?
P
rice doesn't always stay at the VWAP; it naturally fluctuates above and below it.
"VWAP Separation" is simply the difference between the current price (Source) and the calculated VWAP value (Separation = Price - VWAP). A positive separation means the price is above VWAP; negative means below.
How Standard Deviation is Used:
While knowing the separation is useful, its significance can vary wildly between different stocks or market conditions. A $1 separation might be huge for one stock but tiny for another.
Standard Deviation is a statistical measure of how spread out data points are from their average. In this indicator, we calculate the standard deviation of the VWAP Separation over a specified Lookback Length. This tells us how volatile or dispersed the separation has been recently.
The Oscillator Line (Z-Score):
The main purple (or Green/Red) line plotted by this indicator is the Z-score of the VWAP Separation.
Formula conceptually: Oscillator Value = (Current Separation - Average Separation) / Standard Deviation of Separation
Interpretation: It tells you how many standard deviations the current separation is away from the average separation over the lookback period.
A value of +2.0 means the current separation is 2 standard deviations higher (more extended to the upside) than the average separation.
A value of -1.5 means the current separation is 1.5 standard deviations lower (more extended to the downside) than the average separation.
This normalization makes it easier to compare readings across different assets or timeframes and to define consistent thresholds for "extreme" deviations.
Visual Elements Explained
Oscillator Line: The primary line showing the Z-score value (explained above). Can optionally be colored Green/Red based on its slope (rising/falling).
Overbought Line (Solid Red): A user-defined level (default: 2.0). When the oscillator moves above this line, it suggests the price deviation above VWAP is statistically significant compared to recent history.
Oversold Line (Solid Green): A user-defined level (default: -2.0). When the oscillator moves below this line, it suggests the price deviation below VWAP is statistically significant compared to recent history.
Overbought/Oversold Zone Fills (Transparent Red/Green): These shaded areas appear only when the oscillator line enters the respective Overbought or Oversold territory (defined by the OB/OS Lines), visually highlighting these periods.
Zero Line (Dotted Gray): Represents the point where the current VWAP separation is exactly equal to the average VWAP separation over the lookback period. Crossings indicate shifts relative to this mean.
Zero Cross Markers (Orange 'X'): Small 'x' marks plotted directly on the oscillator line whenever it crosses the Zero Line, pinpointing these moments.
Potential Usage / Interpretation
Identifying Extremes: High positive values (above OB Level) or low negative values (below OS Level) can suggest the price move relative to VWAP might be over-extended and potentially due for a pause or pullback. Look for the oscillator turning back from these extremes.
Spotting Divergences: Look for discrepancies between price action and the oscillator.
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a new high, but the oscillator makes a lower high (often in the OB zone). Suggests weakening upside momentum relative to VWAP dynamics.
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a new low, but the oscillator makes a higher low (often in the OS zone). Suggests weakening downside momentum relative to VWAP dynamics.
Context is Key: This oscillator measures deviation from a specific benchmark (VWAP). Its interpretation should always be done within the context of the overall market trend, price structure (support/resistance), volume analysis, and potentially other confirming indicators.
Disclaimer: This indicator is a tool for analysis, not a standalone trading system. It does not provide financial advice. Always use risk management.
Settings Overview
Anchor Period: Determines how often the VWAP calculation resets (Session, Week, Month, etc.).
Source: The price data used for the separation calculation (default: hlc3).
Lookback Length: The number of bars used to calculate the average and standard deviation of the separation, influencing the oscillator's responsiveness.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: User-defined thresholds for identifying extreme Z-score values.
Color Oscillator Line: Option to color the oscillator line based on whether it's rising or falling.
Multi-Timeframe Anchored VWAP Valuation# Multi-Timeframe Anchored VWAP Valuation
## Overview
This indicator provides a unique perspective on potential price valuation by comparing the current price to the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) anchored to the start of multiple timeframes: Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly. It synthesizes these comparisons into a single oscillator value, helping traders gauge if the current price is potentially extended relative to significant volume-weighted levels.
## Core Concept & Calculation
1. **Anchored VWAP:** The script calculates the VWAP separately for the current Week, Month, Quarter (3 Months), and Year (12 Months), starting the calculation from the first bar of each period.
2. **Price Deviation:** It measures how far the current `close` price is from each of these anchored VWAPs. This distance is measured in terms of standard deviations calculated *within* that specific anchor period (e.g., how many weekly standard deviations the price is away from the weekly VWAP).
3. **Deviation Score (Multiplier):** Based on this standard deviation distance, a score is assigned. The further the price is from the VWAP (in terms of standard deviations), the higher the absolute score. The indicator uses linear interpolation to determine scores between the standard deviation levels (defaulted at 1, 2, and 3 standard deviations corresponding to scores of +/-2, +/-3, +/-4, with a score of 1 at the VWAP).
4. **Timeframe Weighting:** Longer timeframes are considered more significant. The deviation scores are multiplied by fixed scalars: Weekly (x1), Monthly (x2), Quarterly (x3), Yearly (x4).
5. **Final Valuation Metric:** The weighted scores from all four timeframes are summed up to produce the final oscillator value plotted in the indicator pane.
## How to Interpret and Use
* **Histogram (Indicator Pane):**
* The main output is the histogram representing the `Final Valuation Metric`.
* **Positive Values:** Suggest the price is generally trading above its volume-weighted averages across the timeframes, potentially indicating strength or relative "overvaluation."
* **Negative Values:** Suggest the price is generally trading below its volume-weighted averages, potentially indicating weakness or relative "undervaluation."
* **Values Near Zero:** Indicate the price is relatively close to its volume-weighted averages.
* **Histogram Color:**
* The color of the histogram bars provides context based on the metric's *own recent history*.
* **Green (Positive Color):** The metric is currently *above* its recent average plus a standard deviation band (dynamic upper threshold). This highlights potentially significant "overvalued" readings relative to its normal range.
* **Red (Negative Color):** The metric is currently *below* its recent average minus a standard deviation band (dynamic lower threshold). This highlights potentially significant "undervalued" readings relative to its normal range.
* **Gray (Neutral Color):** The metric is within its typical recent range (between the dynamic upper and lower thresholds).
* **Orange Line:** Plots the moving average of the `Final Valuation Metric` itself (based on the "Threshold Lookback Period"), serving as the centerline for the dynamic thresholds.
* **On-Chart Table:**
* Provides a detailed breakdown for transparency.
* Shows the calculated VWAP, the raw deviation multiplier score, and the final weighted (adjusted) metric for each individual timeframe (W, M, Q, Y).
* Displays the current price, the final combined metric value, and a textual interpretation ("Overvalued", "Undervalued", "Neutral") based on the dynamic thresholds.
## Potential Use Cases
* Identifying potential exhaustion points when the indicator reaches statistically high (green) or low (red) levels relative to its recent history.
* Assessing whether price trends are supported by underlying volume-weighted average prices across multiple timeframes.
* Can be used alongside other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
## Settings
* **Calculation Settings:**
* `STDEV Level 1`: Adjusts the 1st standard deviation level (default 1.0).
* `STDEV Level 2`: Adjusts the 2nd standard deviation level (default 2.0).
* `STDEV Level 3`: Adjusts the 3rd standard deviation level (default 3.0).
* **Interpretation Settings:**
* `Threshold Lookback Period`: Defines the number of bars used to calculate the average and standard deviation of the final metric for dynamic thresholds (default 200).
* `Threshold StDev Multiplier`: Controls how many standard deviations above/below the metric's average are used to set the "Overvalued"/"Undervalued" thresholds (default 1.0).
* **Table Settings:** Customize the position and colors of the data table displayed on the chart.
## Important Considerations
* This indicator measures price deviation relative to *anchored* VWAPs and its *own historical range*. It is not a standalone trading system.
* The interpretation of "Overvalued" and "Undervalued" is relative to the indicator's logic and calculations; it does not guarantee future price movement.
* Like all indicators, past performance is not indicative of future results. Use this tool as part of a comprehensive analysis and risk management strategy.
* The anchored VWAP and Standard Deviation values reset at the beginning of each respective period (Week, Month, Quarter, Year).

CPR by NKDCentral Pivot Range (CPR) Trading Strategy:
The Central Pivot Range (CPR) is a widely-used tool in technical analysis, helping traders pinpoint potential support and resistance levels in the market. By using the CPR effectively, traders can better gauge market trends and determine favorable entry and exit points. This guide explores how the CPR works, outlines its calculation, and describes how traders can enhance their strategies using an extended 10-line version of CPR.
What Really Central Pivot Range (CPR) is?
At its core, the CPR consists of three key lines:
Pivot Point (PP) – The central line, calculated as the average of the previous day’s high, low, and closing prices.
Upper Range (R1) – Positioned above the Pivot Point, acting as a potential ceiling where price may face resistance.
Lower Range (S1) – Found below the Pivot Point, serving as a potential floor where price might find support.
Advanced traders often expand on the traditional three-line CPR by adding extra levels above and below the pivot, creating up to a 10-line system. This extended CPR allows for a more nuanced understanding of the market and helps identify more detailed trading opportunities.
Applying CPR for Trading Success
1. How CPR is Calculation
The CPR relies on the previous day's high (H), low (L), and close (C) prices to create its structure:
Pivot Point (PP) = (H + L + C) / 3
First Resistance (R1) = (2 * PP) - L
First Support (S1) = (2 * PP) - H
Additional resistance levels (R2, R3) and support levels (S2, S3) are calculated by adding or subtracting multiples of the previous day’s price range (H - L) from the Pivot Point.
2. Recognizing the Market Trend
To effectively trade using CPR, it’s essential to first determine whether the market is trending up (bullish) or down (bearish). In an upward-trending market, traders focus on buying at support levels, while in a downward market, they look to sell near resistance.
3. Finding Ideal Entry Points
Traders often look to enter trades when price approaches key levels within the CPR range. Support levels (S1, S2) offer buying opportunities, while resistance levels (R1, R2) provide selling opportunities. These points are considered potential reversal zones, where price may bounce or reverse direction.
4. Managing Risk with Stop-Loss Orders
Proper risk management is crucial in any trading strategy. A stop-loss should be set slightly beyond the support level for buy positions and above the resistance level for sell positions, ensuring that losses are contained if the market moves against the trader’s position.
5. Determining Profit Targets
Profit targets are typically set based on the distance between entry points and the next support or resistance level. Many traders apply a risk-reward ratio, aiming for larger potential profits compared to the potential losses. However, if the next resistance and support level is far then middle levels are used for targets (i.e. 50% of R1 and R2)
6. Confirmation Through Other Indicators
While CPR provides strong support and resistance levels, traders often use additional indicators to confirm potential trade setups. Indicators such as moving averages can
help validate the signals provided by the CPR.
7. Monitoring Price Action At CPR Levels
Constantly monitoring price movement near CPR levels is essential. If the price fails to break through a resistance level (R1) or holds firm at support (S1), it can offer cues on when to exit or adjust a trade. However, a strong price break past these levels often signals a continued trend.
8. Trading Breakouts with CPR
When the price breaks above resistance or below support with strong momentum, it may signal a potential breakout. Traders can capitalize on these movements by entering positions in the direction of the breakout, ideally confirmed by volume or other technical indicators.
9. Adapting to Changing Market Conditions
CPR should be used in the context of broader market influences, such as economic reports, news events, or geopolitical shifts. These factors can dramatically affect market direction and how price reacts to CPR levels, making it important to stay informed about external market conditions.
10. Practice and Backtesting for Improvements
Like any trading tool, the CPR requires practice. Traders are encouraged to backtest their strategies on historical price data to get a better sense of how CPR works in different market environments. Continuous analysis and practice help improve decision-making and strategy refinement.
The Advantages of Using a 10-Line CPR System
An extended 10-line CPR system—comprising up to five resistance and five support levels—provides more granular control and insight into market movements. This expanded view helps traders better gauge trends and identify more opportunities for entry and exit. Key benefits include:
R2, S2 Levels: These act as secondary resistance or support zones, giving traders additional opportunities to refine their trade entries and exits.
R3, S3 Levels: Provide an even wider range for identifying reversals or trend continuations in more volatile markets.
Flexibility: The broader range of levels allows traders to adapt to changing market conditions and make more precise decisions based on market momentum.
So in Essential:
The Central Pivot Range is a valuable tool for traders looking to identify critical price levels in the market. By providing a clear framework for identifying potential support and resistance zones, it helps traders make informed decisions about entering and exiting trades. However, it’s important to combine CPR with sound risk management and additional confirmation through other technical indicators for the best results.
Although no trading tool guarantees success, the CPR, when used effectively and combined with practice, can significantly enhance a trader’s ability to navigate market fluctuations.

Anchored VWAP, or Anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price, is a technical analysis tool used to determine the average price of a stock weighted by volume, starting from a specific point in time chosen by the analyst.
Unlike traditional VWAP, which starts at the beginning of the trading session, the anchored VWAP allows traders to select any point on the chart, such as a significant event, price low, high, or a breakout, to begin the calculation.
VWAP incorporates price and volume in a weighted average and can be used to identify areas of support and resistance on the chart.

Periodic Moving AveragesIndicator plots three simple moving averages (MA) that are reset at the beginning of period, specified by a user.
Red MA is based on highs
Blue MA is based on close
Green MA one is based on lows.
Moving averages often act as support /resistance levels. They can also help to identify intraday trend. It is important to realize that none of the moving averages is universal as price behavior changes from day to day. On the chart I’ve highlighted several occurrences when one of MAs (different ones) provided support for price.
Parameters:
PERIOD – period for which MAs are plotted. They are reset at the beginning of each period. Period cannot be lower than chart’s timeframe
LENGTH – length of moving averages. If set to 0 then parameter is ignored and MAs are calculated on all bars, available in the period
VWAP? – if checked then moving averages will be calculated as volume weighted price
Disclaimer
This indicator should not be used as a standalone tool to make trading decisions but only in conjunction with other technical analysis methods.
