SSM IQ Reactor
Read activity, remaining range, trend strength and directional pressure through PULSE, FUEL, DRIVE and FLOW in one TradingView market-state panel.
Know What Kind of Market You're In — Before You Decide Anything
Four dimensions of market condition. One decision context.
SSM IQ Reactor reads four dimensions of market condition — activity, remaining daily range, trend strength and directional pressure — and reports them as one heads-up display. No lines, no boxes, no clutter on your price chart. Just a panel that tells you, in plain words, what kind of market you're looking at right now. One panel replaces the four separate indicators you'd otherwise need to answer "is this market worth trading right now" — calibrated to your instrument and timeframe, with every alert and telemetry message waiting for the candle to close.

SSM IQ Reactor at a Glance
- What is it? — A TradingView analytical indicator that measures current market condition (activity, remaining daily range, trend strength, directional pressure) and reports it as one HUD panel.
- Platform — TradingView, Pine Script v6 exclusively.
- Primary purpose — Market-condition classification and filter; not a signal generator, not a screener.
- Primary analytical concept — PULSE (activity) / FUEL (daily range budget) / DRIVE (trend strength) / FLOW (directional pressure), synthesized into BIAS / TREND STATE / MARKET MODE.
- Best suited for — Traders who want one fast, transparent market-condition read to filter their own entry method, on any instrument and timeframe.
- Auto-Timeframe — Yes. The chart timeframe is automatically mapped into one of ten calibration buckets within the market profile you select.
- Manual Mode — Full edition only
- unlocks direct control of 26 measurement inputs. The Lite edition has no technical parameters at all.
- Intrabar — No dedicated intrabar/lower-timeframe request for the core engines. The single higher-timeframe request (used for FUEL) is day-sampled, so it cannot change intrabar.
- Footprint — HUD-only
- one table, zero drawings on the price chart.
- Editions — Full (SSM IQ Reactor) and Lite (SSM IQ Reactor Lite): identical engines, verdicts, alerts and telemetry; Full adds Manual mode and a choice of ADR data source.
- Repainting behaviour — All alert conditions and telemetry messages evaluate on confirmed (closed) bars only. The live HUD readings on the still-forming bar are, by design, a live measurement that can move until that bar closes.
- TradingView requirements — Invite-only distribution. Both the six alert conditions and SSM IQ AI Telemetry require the user to create a TradingView alert on the indicator.
Four Separate Indicators, Four Separate Scales, No Single Answer
A trader who wants a genuine read of current market conditions typically has to run several separate indicators — one for volatility, one for trend strength, one for daily range, one for directional bias — each on its own scale, each requiring separate interpretation under time pressure. The result: more chart windows, more mental reconciliation, and no single, honest answer to the question that actually matters before placing a trade — "is this a market worth engaging with right now, and on which side?" Many condition indicators compound the problem by reducing all of that to a single unexplained line, or a "score" whose composition is never disclosed — leaving the trader to trust a number without understanding what built it.
Why SSM IQ Reactor Is Different
Most condition indicators give you a single line and leave the interpretation to you, or bundle a "score" whose composition you're never told. SSM IQ Reactor does neither.
It separates strength from direction
A market can be powerfully trending and still be one you should not be entering. Reading trend strength and directional pressure separately is the difference between "there is a trend" and "there is a trend, and it is going my way, and the day still has room for it."
It is honest about not knowing yet
When it has not gathered enough history, it says so — and shows how far along it is — instead of displaying a confident number built on nothing.
It shows its own settings
One hover on the footer reveals every parameter the auto-calibration chose for your exact chart. Nothing about your own tool is hidden from you.
It stays out of your chart, on purpose
No lines, no boxes, no labels competing with your analysis. It sits alongside whatever else you already have open — your structure markup, your levels, your other indicators — without touching a single pixel of your price panel.
It does not pretend to be a signal generator
It describes conditions. What you do with that description is your method, not the indicator's opinion.
"A Lot of Movement" and "A Real Trend" Are Not the Same Thing
MARKET MODE names the difference other indicators blur into one line.
The same kind of session, two different MARKET MODE readings — because activity without direction and activity with a real trend behind it are two different situations, not one.
Four Engines. Three Verdicts. One Panel.
PULSE — Volatility Activity
What it is: a read of how active the market is right now, measured against that instrument's own recent history. What it tells you: a 0–100 activity reading, plus whether activity is building or cooling, in named states from DORMANT through EXPLOSIVE. Why it matters: a straight answer to "is this worth trading right now" instead of a raw volatility number that means something different on every symbol.
FUEL — Daily Range Budget
What it is: a live gauge of how much of the instrument's typical daily range is still available (intraday only). What it tells you: a 0–100 "remaining fuel" reading with named states from FULL through EXTREME RANGE; on daily and weekly charts the panel says plainly that the concept doesn't apply. Why it matters: the practical difference between joining a move and chasing one.
DRIVE — Trend Strength
What it is: a read of how strong the current trend actually is. What it tells you: a 0–100 trend-strength reading feeding a six-rung ladder from NO TREND to EXTREME, with a rising/flat/falling arrow. Why it matters: the reading fades naturally once a market genuinely loses direction, instead of freezing on a stale value.
FLOW — Directional Pressure
What it is: a read of which side — buyers or sellers — currently has the upper hand, on a −100 to +100 scale. What it tells you: feeds the BIAS verdict and stays neutral through small back-and-forth ticks. Why it matters: strength and direction are different questions — reading them separately tells you exactly which situation you're in.
MARKET MODE — The Single Regime Verdict
What it is: one label naming the overall type of market you're looking at, built by combining all four engines. What it tells you: a single named regime such as IGNITION, COMPRESSION, TREND EXPANSION or LOW-ENERGY CHOP — never ambiguous. Why it matters: one consistent label instead of re-reading four gauges every time.
Alerts and automation-ready data export
What it is: six named TradingView alert conditions, plus an optional structured data feed (SSM IQ AI Telemetry) for automations and AI tools. What it tells you: notifications when activity expands, a trend ignites or expands, daily fuel runs low, direction shifts, or a trend runs out of steam — each on a closed candle only. Why it matters: real, confirmed condition changes, never an intrabar flicker — and the same events can feed your own automated workflow if you want that.
How SSM IQ Reactor Works
Full technical detail is available in the product's technical documentation, for traders who want it.
The Same Market, Two States — One Session
Illustrative scenario, not a real historical trade.
- Market Context
- The DAX index frequently opens with a fast initial move around the European cash open, then spends stretches of the session moving a substantial amount without establishing a clear trend.
- What Happened
- On a 15-minute DAX chart, PULSE jumps to HIGH within the first candles after the cash open, but DRIVE's trend reading stays low and TREND STATE remains at NO TREND/FORMING through the next hour.
- What The Indicator Showed
- MARKET MODE settles into HIGH-ENERGY RANGE — the panel's specific description for "moving a lot, going nowhere." Later in the session, TREND STATE advances rungs on the ladder and MARKET MODE transitions to TREND EXPANSION or TREND CONTINUATION.
- Why It Mattered
- A trader recognizes the early HIGH-ENERGY RANGE reading as a session that is busy but not directional, and shifts toward range-appropriate setups rather than a breakout method — until MARKET MODE and TREND STATE together indicate a genuine trend has taken hold.
Three Verdicts, Not Four Numbers to Interpret
BIAS, TREND STATE and MARKET MODE say in words what the four gauges mean together.
You read a sentence, not a dashboard — and one hover on the footer shows exactly which parameters produced it.
Ready Out of the Box. Fully Configurable When You Need It.
Auto (all editions). Select a market category — Metals · Gold/Silver, Forex · Majors, or All Other Markets — and the panel resolves every underlying measurement parameter for you, automatically re-tuned to your chart's timeframe. This is the default and only mode in the Lite edition. Manual (full edition only). Selecting the Manual profile unlocks direct control of every measurement input across the PULSE, FUEL, DRIVE, FLOW and Market State groups. In every auto profile, those same inputs are visibly greyed out in the settings dialog, so it's always obvious which mode is active. Two settings — the ADR data source and the Market Mode toggle — stay adjustable regardless of profile. The three auto profiles are sensible, engineering-derived starting points, not the output of empirical backtesting on live results — a defensible baseline to validate against your own instrument's behaviour, and refine through Manual mode where warranted.
Full Control, or Zero Configuration — You Choose the Edition
Both editions share identical engines, verdicts, alerts, telemetry and visual customization. The difference is how much hands-on control you want.
SSM IQ Reactor (Full)
Everything in Lite, plus the Manual profile — direct control of every measurement input across PULSE, FUEL, DRIVE, FLOW and Market State — and a choice of ADR data source (Self-Built · Local History or HTF Confirmed · Instant).
SSM IQ Reactor Lite
No technical parameters at all — three auto market profiles only, full visual customization, and the ADR source fixed to the instant, HTF-confirmed option so calibration never requires a decision.
Fits Your Screen, Not the Other Way Around
Two layouts — a tall column or a wide low strip. Nine anchor positions. Four scale steps. Independent horizontal/vertical offsets. Show/hide toggles for the title, Market Mode line, reference values and profile footer. Full Dark/Light theming — not a background swap, every color adapts. An optional panel-background color/transparency override. Alerts and telemetry are independently toggled, with a dedicated telemetry mode (Off/Fast/Full).
Sits Alongside Everything Else on Your Chart
SSM IQ Reactor draws exactly one HUD table and zero price-panel objects, so it never competes for space or layering with anything else on your chart — including other SSM IQ tools that mark up price structure, liquidity or sessions. Run it next to a structure- or liquidity-focused SSM IQ indicator to get both a condition filter and price-level context at once, without either one visually crowding the other.
TradingView Requirements
TradingView platform, invite-only distribution. The six named alert conditions and the SSM IQ AI Telemetry channel each require the user to create a TradingView alert on the indicator (a standard alert condition for the former, the "Any alert() function call" condition for the latter). Without a created alert, no notification and no telemetry message leaves the script — that's TradingView platform behaviour, not a product limitation. Whether a specific paid TradingView plan tier is required to use alerts is governed by TradingView's own account limits, independent of this indicator.
Important To Know
Stated plainly, because SSM IQ Reactor is honest about what it is and isn't.
- The auto-calibration presets are engineering defaults, not backtested optima — validate against your own instrument's live behaviour, and use Manual mode (full edition) to override where warranted.
- FUEL only applies intraday — on daily and weekly charts the panel states this plainly (
N/A/UNSUPPORTED TF) rather than showing a number that wouldn't mean anything. - Readings need a warm-up period — percentile-based readings are conservative (read low) during the first calibration window on a fresh chart, by design.
- The telemetry feed needs a TradingView alert to exist at all — enabling the indicator setting alone isn't enough.
- It does not predict price and does not place trades — an educational and analytical tool, not financial advice, that never executes, modifies or closes an order.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does it work?
It measures the market directly from raw price data, then runs those measurements through rules-based logic to produce its verdicts — never a black-box score.
What is the difference between the full edition and Lite?
Both share identical engines, verdicts, alerts, telemetry and visual customization. The full edition adds Manual mode — direct control of every measurement parameter — and a choice of ADR data source. The Lite edition removes all technical settings and fixes the ADR source to the instant, HTF-confirmed option.
What is the difference between Auto and Manual mode?
In Auto (Metals, Forex or All Other Markets), every measurement parameter is resolved automatically and re-tuned to your chart's timeframe. Manual (full edition only) unlocks those same parameters for direct, hands-on control.
Does it work on any market?
Yes — any instrument chartable on TradingView. The Market Profile setting lets you choose the closest-matching calibration family (Metals, Forex, or All Other Markets) for the instrument you're trading; it's a setting you choose, not something the indicator detects automatically from the symbol.
Is it suitable for scalping?
Scalping is not a specific use case this product claims. The timeframe-bucket matrix does extend down to a 1-second-to-1-minute bucket, so the engines are calibrated at that resolution — but that's calibration coverage, not a scalping endorsement.
Does it place trades or predict price?
No. It is an educational and analytical tool that describes present market condition. It has no order-execution capability and no predictive plan engine.
Does it require TradingView Premium?
TradingView Premium is not required by the indicator itself — alert creation and usage are governed by your TradingView plan, so check TradingView's own current plan limits.
