Pivot Baseline
The equilibrium level the price revolves around — it exposes where large orders cluster and marks where the market prepares to break out or reverse.
Trade seriously — or walk away in peace. One platform that brings together learning, trading tools and live market tracking. And with the STD Project indicator, which reads accumulation and distribution through price action and volume, you see what the chart alone does not show.
Trade with confidence, and read the market clearly.
This video is a quick tour of how the indicator works and how much chart-reading time it saves you. We keep to a clear, direct strategy that avoids complexity — so you read the more probable side of the market.
No sealed signals and no black box. Every layer is visible on the chart and you understand why it was drawn — the condition for learning rather than following.
The equilibrium level the price revolves around — it exposes where large orders cluster and marks where the market prepares to break out or reverse.
The defence line of every buy or sell zone — breaking it is an early sign that the zone is weakening and may flip.
Drawn before the move, not after — so you enter where institutional money buys, instead of chasing price.
They expose where the large players unload into buyer liquidity — so you know where to exit and where the wave turns.
Your early warning of a bullish breakout — it fires the moment heavy institutional buying pressure is detected.
The distribution radar — it announces that large sellers have begun a liquidity dump before it completes.
An engineering leap that fuses the strongest schools of technical and structural analysis into one integrated algorithmic model.
A team of professional market analysts — not just signals, but complete training that makes you a self-reliant trader.
These independent dynamic lines are the backbone of the indicator and your decisive strategic weapon. They are built programmatically on complex mathematical equations combining trading volume (Volume) with the volume-weighted average price (VWAP). These lines act as a liquidity radar that exposes price-equilibrium levels and accumulation and distribution areas with high precision.
📊 Scenarios:
A line flipping from CN to CP is immediate confirmation that upside odds and upward thrust have increased.
💡 The golden opportunity — catching the retest: if price bounces up into the line while institutional sell zones sit there, that is an exceptional, high-probability short 🎯
Three buy zones the indicator generates — tap any one to see its detail:
This zone never appears at random. It runs on conditional triggering: the indicator is cleared to start calculating the moment a Yellow Candle (YC) is detected, then applies high-precision equations to liquidity and volume levels, producing a two-level structure:
1. The BUY level (upper band):
2. The BEST ENTRY level (lower band):
• The convergence rule (Convergence):
The basic, safe condition for a valid trend is that the lower timeframe’s buy zone must not sit below the higher timeframe’s buy zone. Perfect convergence occurs when the lower timeframe’s floor falls either within the midpoint band of the higher timeframe’s zone or flush against that zone’s own floor — confirming that liquidity is fused and the shared support is strong.
• The volume-divergence and manipulation rule (Volume Divergence & Manipulation):
If the opposite happens and the lower timeframe’s buy-zone floor drops beneath the higher timeframe’s, that is a dangerous volume inversion and divergence — a sign the market is under institutional manipulation. Here the algorithm imposes exceptional handling rules:
🎯 The smart entry tactic: if the candle closes inside BEST ENTRY, step aside and wait until price breaks the BUY zone with a decisive close above it before riding the wave safely.
📉 The Purple Candle scenario (PC Counter-Attack):
This zone is the buyers’ impregnable fortress and by far the strongest buy area in the algorithm. It appears on the chart only when smart-money liquidity flows and heavy trading volume converge and fuse at the lows.
Geometrically it splits into two main levels that follow the same strict close logic as the ordinary buy zone, but with a higher bounce efficiency:
The STRONG BUY zone is mobile and dynamic: it reacts to market movement in real time and exposes price’s true intent:
To keep the buy signal precise, the algorithm enforces a strict multi-timeframe linkage standard:
Because this zone is a concrete institutional wall, the algorithm imposes two strict rules for breaking it:
2. The purple Strong Premium candle (an equal match): The only force that matches it and can break it — even from its own timeframe — is a pivotal purple candle of the Strong Premium type. That candle is a massive institutional liquidity dump, an exact counterweight to STRONG BUY; the moment it appears the zone’s safety is void and the trade becomes very dangerous.
This zone is a smart algorithmic mechanism for detecting a support/resistance flip. It forms when buyers break through a major sell zone and close above it, turning that former selling wall magnetically into an exceptionally strong buying support that market makers target for a retest.
The zone splits into two main levels that set the strength of the bounce after the flip:
The algorithm applies three filters that void the FLIP BUY immediately:
Three sell zones the indicator generates — tap any one to see its detail:
This zone never appears at random. It runs on conditional triggering: the indicator is cleared to start calculating the moment a Purple Candle (PC) is detected, then applies high-precision equations to liquidity and volume levels, producing a two-level structure:
1. The SELL level (lower band):
2. The BEST ENTRY level (upper band):
• The convergence rule (Convergence):
The basic and safest condition for a valid trend is that the lower timeframe’s sell zone must not rise above the higher timeframe’s. Perfect convergence occurs when the lower frame’s top falls either within the midpoint band of the higher frame’s zone or blends smoothly into that zone’s own top — confirming consistent liquidity and strong shared resistance.
• The volume-divergence and manipulation rule (Volume Divergence & Manipulation):
If the opposite happens and the lower frame’s sell-zone top rises above the higher frame’s, that is a dangerous volume divergence and contradiction, indicating the market is under institutional manipulation. In that scenario the algorithm imposes exceptional execution rules:
🎯 The smart entry tactic: if the candle closes inside the upper BEST ENTRY, step out of the short and wait until price regains its bearish bias and breaks the SELL zone with a decisive close below it before riding the drop safely.
📈 The Yellow Candle scenario (YC Counter-Attack):
This zone is the sellers’ impregnable fortress and by far the strongest short area in the algorithm. It appears on the chart only when smart-money flows and heavy distribution volume converge and fuse at the highs.
Geometrically it splits into two main levels that follow the same strict close logic as the ordinary sell zone, but with stronger downside rejection:
The STRONG SELL zone is mobile and dynamic: it reacts to market movement in real time and exposes price’s true intent:
To keep the sell signal precise, the algorithm enforces a strict multi-timeframe linkage standard:
Because this zone is a concrete institutional selling wall, the algorithm imposes two strict rules for breaking its bearish hold:
2. The yellow Strong Discount candle (an equal match): The only force that matches it and can break through — even from its own timeframe — is a pivotal yellow candle of the Strong Discount type. That candle is a massive institutional liquidity injection and buying wave, an exact counterweight to STRONG SELL; the moment it appears the zone’s safety is void and the short becomes a very dangerous trade.
This zone is a smart algorithmic mechanism for detecting a reverse resistance/support flip. It forms when sellers break a major buy zone and close below it, turning that former buying wall magnetically into an exceptionally strong selling resistance that market makers target for an upward retest before the decline resumes.
The zone splits into two main levels that set the strength of the bounce after the flip:
The algorithm applies three filters that void the FLIP SELL immediately:
The Yellow Candle (YC) is generated algorithmically as a direct function of heavy institutional buying pressure. It is an advanced tool for tracking the structural price-volume relationship.
Its real power is anticipatory: it pinpoints liquidity accumulation areas with high precision and gives a deep read of how strong and how complete the trend’s momentum is — letting you seize buying opportunities and build positions at the ideal moment, entering before the imminent price break.
🟢 DISCOUNT YC (cheap price areas):
This zone is confirmed as a precise leading indicator specifically when price posts a clear close on the very first candle after the Yellow Candle. That decisive close, breaking the Yellow Candle’s levels, is strong technical evidence of trend strength and establishes the Discount YC as an ideal, high-probability buy zone ✅.
🚀 STRONG DISCOUNT YC (extreme momentum and a liquidity retest):
This is among the strongest and most efficient patterns in the algorithm. It forms when price pulls back to retest the buy zone, touches the ideal entry area (BEST ENTRY) precisely, then rallies hard to break the Yellow Candle’s high again.
The cumulative-strength rule: Every time price returns and touches BEST ENTRY, the Strong Discount YC zone gains extra momentum and greater structural strength — making it the textbook opportunity to scale into the position and inject fresh buying liquidity, while securing profit by moving the stop loss from the first buy zone to safety below this new protective zone 🚀.
⚠️ PREMIUM YC (expensive price areas, close to reversal):
It forms at high levels (expensive prices). The zone is formally confirmed when the next candle breaks the Yellow Candle’s low and closes decisively beneath it — clear technical evidence that buyers are weakening and buying liquidity is withdrawing.
💡 How to handle the zone:
🚫 The strict protection rule: if a Yellow Candle appears near a major sell zone, wait for confirmation that it has turned into a Premium YC — by breaking its low and closing beneath it — before any decision.
The Purple Candle (PC) announces a sharp liquidity dump led by large institutional sellers. It is an advanced detection algorithm that captures the moment supply overpowers demand, based on order-flow delta.
Its value lies in exposing market-maker traps and pinpointing where buying liquidity dissolves — giving you the head start to build shorts from the highest possible tops.
🔴 PREMIUM PC (confirming expensive price areas):
This zone is confirmed specifically when price posts a clear close on the very first candle after the Purple Candle. That close, breaking the Purple Candle’s levels downward, is strong evidence of bearish momentum and establishes the Premium PC as a legitimate, ideal short zone ✅.
⚡ STRONG PREMIUM PC (extreme selling momentum and a liquidity retest):
Among the strongest patterns of all. It forms when price bounces back up to retest the sell zone, touches the BEST ENTRY area, then drops hard and breaks the Purple Candle’s low again.
The cumulative-strength rule: Every time price returns and touches the selling BEST ENTRY, Strong Premium PC gains greater bearish momentum — the textbook opportunity to scale into the short while moving the stop loss above this new protective zone 📉.
🟢 DISCOUNT PC (cheap price areas, close to a bounce):
It forms at low levels (bottoms). It is formally confirmed when the next candle breaks the Purple Candle’s high and closes decisively above it — a sign that sellers are weakening and supportive buying liquidity is entering.
💡 How to handle the zone:
🚫 The strict protection rule: if a Purple Candle appears near a major buy zone, wait for confirmation that it has turned into a Discount PC — by breaking its high and closing above it — before any decision.
This line is generated automatically the instant a buy or sell zone forms. It is the zone’s protective arm and the reference against which the indicator measures the soundness of its structure. Watching it gives you an instant read on the zone’s health before you act on it.
The further the line sits from its zone, the clearer the sign that the zone is weak and more likely to be broken — a line close to its zone means cohesion, a line far from it means fragility 📉
