Scenario Bias Gauge
High vs Low scenario probabilities are derived from multi-timeframe volume profile confluence. Unlike RSI (momentum), this measures structural directional agreement.
๐ข๐ข STRONG BULL
High leads Low by 25%+ โ all timeframes agree bullish, strong structural edge
๐ข LEAN BULL
High leads by 10-24% โ moderate bullish lean, tradeable with confirmation
โ๏ธ NEUTRAL
Within 10% of each other โ no clear structural edge, wait or reduce size
๐ด LEAN BEAR
Low leads by 10-24% โ moderate bearish lean, tradeable with confirmation
๐ด๐ด STRONG BEAR
Low leads High by 25%+ โ all timeframes agree bearish, strong structural edge
RSI vs Scenario Bias: RSI tells you "price moved fast" (momentum, mean-reverts). Scenario Bias tells you "the structure across all timeframes agrees on direction" (structural, does not mean-revert). Both extremes are significant, but they measure different things.
๐งฑ Absorption Zones (MOD Badge)
The scanner detects options market maker activity โ large limit orders that absorb opposing flow at key price levels. The badge shows type, strength, and status of the primary absorption zone.
Zone Types
๐งฑ CEILING
Heavy selling absorption above โ acts as resistance, blocks upside
๐ก๏ธ FLOOR
Heavy buying absorption below โ acts as support, stops downside
โ๏ธ PINNING
Absorption on both sides โ market makers pinning price to a strike
Strength Levels
INST
Institutional โ massive absorption, score 80+, very hard to break
Level is actively held โ multiple touches absorbed, price rejected
๐ช HOLDING
Level intact but being tested โ watch for weakening
โ ๏ธ WEAKENING
Absorption being overwhelmed โ level may break soon
๐ฅ BROKEN
Level breached โ absorption failed, expect acceleration through
Reading the badge:๐งฑ MOD ๐ฅ means a Ceiling zone with Moderate strength that has been Broken. Hover the badge to see the exact price level and touch count.
๐ Capitulation & Euphoria Scanner
Detects panic selling (capitulation) and blow-off tops (euphoria) using volume climax patterns, RSI divergence, reversal candles, and volume profile context. Capitulation = buy the dip. Euphoria = fade the top.
Capitulation Levels
๐ข EXHAUSTION (80+)
Sellers exhausted โ ideal long entry. Volume climax fading, RSI divergence, reversal candle forming. Highest probability bounce.
๐ด CLIMAX (60-79)
Active panic selling โ volume spiking on red candles, steep decline. Tradeable but riskier โ might see one more flush before reversal.
๐ก DEVELOPING (45-59)
Multiple stress signals aligning โ decline accelerating, volume rising. Watch list only โ wait for CLIMAX or EXHAUSTION to enter.
โช EARLY (25-44)
Starting to show stress โ consecutive red days, RSI dropping. Too early to trade, but worth monitoring.
โ NONE (0-24)
No capitulation signs โ normal price action, nothing to act on.
What It Scores
Volume Climax
Spike in volume on sell-off โ 2x+ avg volume on red candles = panic
RSI Divergence
Price makes lower low but RSI makes higher low โ selling pressure weakening
Reversal Candle
Hammer, bullish engulfing, or doji at lows โ buyers stepping in
Volume Exhaustion
Volume drops after climax โ sellers running out of shares to dump
VP Context
Capitulation near VAL/POC = stronger support. Random zone = weaker.
Consecutive Red Days
3+ red days in a row increases capitulation score โ selling momentum
Euphoria (reverse): The scanner also detects blow-off tops โ same methodology but inverted. Volume climax on up-moves, RSI overbought divergence, shooting star candles = SHORT signal. Badge shows ๐ด CLIMAX or ๐ข EXHAUSTION (sellers exhausted on the upside).
Filter rule: Only CLIMAX and EXHAUSTION are tradeable. DEVELOPING (50+) and EARLY (35+) show as watch list items. The scan auto-filters NONE and low-score results.
๐ Extension Snap-Back Scanner
Detects when price stays stretched away from fair value (VWAP, POC, VAH/VAL) for consecutive candles โ like a rubber band. The longer the extension, the higher the snap-back probability.
+5% prob โ extended to a POC/VAH/VAL level = structural magnet
Session Close
+5% prob โ extensions at close tend to revert in next session
Rubber band analogy: Price at fair value = rubber band relaxed. Price stretched to EXTREME = rubber band pulled tight. Each consecutive candle outside value adds tension. The snap-back target is typically VWAP or POC โ the "center of gravity" where price naturally returns.
Filter rule: Only results with 50%+ snap-back probability are shown. A+ filter requires 70%+ (HIGH_PROB or EXTREME tier). The trade direction is always OPPOSITE to the extension โ extended UP โ short snap, extended DOWN โ long snap.
๐ Compression Reversal Scanner
Finds mean-reversion setups where price compresses into a tight range at Volume Profile levels (VAL/VAH). Like a football squeezed at value area edges โ 5 criteria must align for a tradeable setup.
The 5 Criteria
1. Normal Profile
Volume Profile must be "football" (Normal) shape โ balanced distribution with clear POC, VAH, VAL
2. Compressed
ATR must be contracted vs historical avg โ EXTREME (<30%), HIGH (30-50%), or MODERATE (50-70%)
3. At VAL/VAH
Price within 0.5% of VAL (for longs) or VAH (for shorts) โ the value area edge
4. RSI Zone
RSI near 37 (longs) or 63 (shorts) โ not extreme, just showing directional lean
5. Reversal Candle
Hammer, bullish engulfing, or doji at VAL (long) / shooting star or bearish engulfing at VAH (short)
Compression Levels
๐ฅ EXTREME (<30%)
ATR at <30% of average โ maximum compression, highest energy stored. +25 pts.
๐ฅ HIGH (30-50%)
Significant compression โ coiled tight, ready to expand. +20 pts.
โ ๏ธ MODERATE (50-70%)
Noticeable compression โ building, but may need more time. +10 pts.
โช NORMAL (70-100%)
No compression โ ATR at normal levels, no setup.
Setup Quality Grades
A+ (90+)
Textbook โ all 5 criteria met + bonus factors. Rare and high conviction.
A (80-89)
Strong โ most criteria met with good compression and positioning.
B (70-79)
Good โ tradeable with smaller size, may be missing one confirmation.
C (60-69)
Marginal โ some criteria met but quality is borderline.
NO (<60)
Not tradeable โ insufficient criteria, filtered out.
Long vs Short: Longs trigger at VAL (Value Area Low) with hammer/engulfing โ buy the dip within the value range. Shorts trigger at VAH (Value Area High) with shooting star/engulfing โ fade the rally within the value range. Target is always POC (fair value center).
Filter rule: Only setups with score โฅ 80 (A grade or better) are shown. The badge shows: direction (CALL/PUT), whether at VAL/VAH (โ ), and reversal candle (๐ฏ๏ธ).
๐ฐ Squeeze Scanner
Detects volatility squeezes where Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels โ the TTM Squeeze. When bands compress, energy builds. When they release, price explodes in one direction. Multi-factor scoring identifies the best setups.
Days in continuous squeeze โ 6+ days = extended coil, maximum energy.
Volume Profile (18 pts)
At key VP level + VP shape (narrow/extreme = more explosive release).
Weekly Align (10 pts)
Weekly structure confirms the squeeze direction โ multi-timeframe agreement.
IV Percentile (10 pts)
Low IV = cheap options = better R:R for directional plays on squeeze release.
Squeeze vs Compression: Squeeze measures BB/KC contraction (volatility coil). Compression measures ATR contraction at VP levels (mean-reversion). Squeeze looks for the release โ the big move. Compression looks for the bounce at value area edges. Both can fire on the same stock.
Reading the badge:๐ฅ 92pt [TTM] 6d โฌ๏ธ = TEXTBOOK tier, 92 score, TTM squeeze active, 6 days duration, bullish bias. Direction arrow shows expected release direction.
Filter rule: Only ACTIVE tier (60+) and above are shown. FORMING (45-59) filtered out. The scan auto-detects direction bias from price structure and volume profile.
