Absorption
Bars where heavy one-sided volume failed to move price. The bar's delta (aggressive buy volume minus aggressive sell volume) sits in its own pane, muted: the up colour above zero, the down colour below. A bar whose absolute delta spikes past the rolling norm while its range stays inside the ATR is lit bright in the pane, boxed on the chart with a thin border across the bar's whole slot, and dotted: a dot in the down colour above the candle when buying was absorbed (buyers hit the tape and price did not rise), a dot in the up colour below it when selling was absorbed. Flagged bars are rare by design, a few per day on a 15m chart.
Where it runs
Markets with sided trades: crypto perps and spot, prediction markets. It runs in your browser: the boxes are a batched section, which an indicator published as Protected cannot carry yet.
When data is missing
On a market with no sided trades (FX, stocks) the delta stays at zero and one muted line of words sits at the top right of the chart: "No sided trades on this market".
