Indicator Disclaimer | Report this indicator

Whale Signals is a professional market participation indicator created to highlight price and volume behavior associated with unusually large activity. It presents decisive participation, confirmed absorption, and meaningful price references in a clean visual framework.

The indicator is intended for traders who need more context than a conventional volume spike or candle pattern. Each event is evaluated within the recent character of the instrument and accepted only after a broader quality assessment. This keeps the analysis relevant across symbols, timeframes, volatility conditions, and liquidity profiles.

Whale Signals separates forceful directional participation from confirmed absorption. Directional events highlight exceptional activity supported by an effective bullish or bearish price response. Absorption events focus on significant activity that initially fails to produce proportional progress, followed by evidence that one side has gained control. Confirmation appears only when available and is never moved onto an earlier bar.

Bullish and bearish cost basis references show whether price continues to accept the area associated with a qualified event or begins to challenge it. Each reference reacts visually to current price, then disappears when invalidated or expired.

The compact presentation uses distinct colors, concise labels, and intentional placement to preserve the readability of price action on light and dark chart themes.

Dedicated outputs support discretionary analysis, Market Scanner, Multi Factor Alerts, and Strategy Tester workflows through the TrendSpider Visual Script Editor.

The indicator uses chart price and volume to identify statistical market footprints. It cannot identify individual accounts, institutions, wallets, or specific orders. Signals indicate exceptional participation rather than proving the presence of a particular participant. Results vary by instrument, timeframe, session, and data quality. Independent confirmation and disciplined risk management remain essential.
