Indicators (TradingView)
- Futures Key Levels
A reference grid for futures day traders. Plots previous-day, weekly and monthly anchors, today's session highs and lows, overnight range, opening range, initial balance with 1.5× and 2.0× extensions, floor pivots, session VWAP with optional bands, ADR projections, and settlement — drawn automatically on every chart.
www.tradingview.com/script/vk4iC7Nc-Futures-Day-Trading-Key-Levels-by-Dhawal-Ranka - Liquidity Levels Pro
Tracks unswept pivot highs and lows on NQ, ES, MNQ and MES, scores each zone by touches, freshness, confluence with prior-day / prior-week / VWAP / OR anchors, fast reaction rate, and session memory. Surfaces the nearest strong liquidity above and below price as trade-planning targets, with sweep detection and a regime + time-of-day HUD.
www.tradingview.com/script/NdHVyxYr-Liquidity-Levels-Pro-Tool-thewallranka - Institutional Orderflow Pro
A bar-by-bar orderflow signal that fires only when relative volume, delta z-score, close-in-range, cumulative delta direction, VWAP slope and prior-day proximity all agree. Includes absorption and exhaustion markers, a per-bar diagnostic HUD that names which gate is still blocking a signal, and an option for confirmed-on-close or real-time firing.
