Tension Squeeze Clock v1.0
🔥 Tension Squeeze Clock v1.0
Forecast explosive market moves before they happen.
The Tension Squeeze Clock is a cyclical compression detector that identifies when the market is storing energy across multiple dimensions — and signals when that energy is about to uncoil.
This indicator combines three critical components:
🔹 RSI Contraction – Detects when momentum is balanced and compressed
🔹 Volatility Squeeze – Measures low standard deviation in price movement
🔹 Range Tension – Flags tight candle ranges relative to average volatility
When all three compressions align, the indicator prints a clear “Squeeze Ready” signal. When the pressure breaks, it signals “Squeeze Uncoiling” — a prime moment to watch for volatility surges or directional breakouts.
📈 Recommended Usage
🔍 This tool works especially well on the Daily timeframe, where coiled conditions often lead to significant price expansions.
Use it to:
Anticipate breakout setups
Confirm coiled consolidation zones
Add timing precision to your volume or divergence-based strategies
📊 Display Options
Panel view with bar colors to reflect compression strength
On-chart labels for squeeze signals
Optional alerts when a squeeze begins or breaks
Whether you're swing trading, trend riding, or timing reversals, the Tension Squeeze Clock helps you see what most indicators miss: the calm before the storm.
