I build practical MT4 and MT5 tools designed to reduce screen time, remove doubt, and make consistent trade execution easier.
Because consistency is what allows a strategy’s edge to play out—and without consistent execution, no strategy works. Period. - Version: 2.2

Create Volume-Based Key Levels for Potential Reversal Trades With One Click
Adjust the chart until the price action to be captured fits within the chart window, then click Snap to instantly create a set of volume zones and key levels.
Darker zones indicate higher volume and potentially stronger support or resistance. Snapshots remain fixed when changing the chart scale or timeframe, keeping the same levels available for stable and reliable analysis. Because snapshots are generated only on demand, CPU usage remains very low.
What Volume Snap Does
Volume Snap analyzes the price action visible within the chart window and converts its volume distribution into key levels and supporting volume zones.
The key levels highlight local concentrations of volume that may become relevant reversal areas. These include local volume peaks found within both thicker and thinner parts of the volume structure.
The surrounding heatmap helps place each level in context. Darker zones represent higher volume and potentially stronger areas of support or resistance.
Once created, every snapshot remains fixed. Changing the chart scale or timeframe does not recalculate or reposition its levels, supporting consistent and reliable analysis.
Because Volume Snap calculates the volume structure only when the Snap button is clicked, it avoids unnecessary continuous processing and keeps CPU usage very low.
