The Kandika Heat Map is a color-coded market indicator designed to visualize market pressure and volatility on trading charts. It uses distinct colors to represent different market conditions: lime green signals an upward trend shift indicating bullish momentum; crimson indicates a downward trend shift signaling bearish pressure; orange/red marks high volatility zones characterized by rapid price movements and potential traps; steel blue denotes low volatility zones where the market is consolidating or ranging, often preceding breakouts. This indicator clearly maps trend direction changes and visually separates calm from volatile market phases. It is presented as a simple, non-intrusive overlay that integrates smoothly with existing charts, aiding traders in identifying trend shifts and volatility levels without clutter.
