📊 DELTA SURGE/DROP PATTERNS
ADVANCED ORDER FLOW MOMENTUM DETECTION
🎯 WHAT IS IT?
The Delta Surge/Drop Signal is a suite of Sierra Chart studies designed to surface order-flow momentum shifts using delta. This product includes two studies in the study group:
- Delta Surge Drop — General: configurable consecutive-bar delta sequence detection (default 4 bars, configurable 2–10).
- Delta Surge Drop — Smart Pattern: specialized 4-bar pattern detector using percentage thresholds (A→B→C→D pattern with configurable B→C and C→D thresholds).
Both studies use Volume-at-Price delta (Ask − Bid) and are optimized for real trading — signals are evaluated on closed bars to avoid past-bar repainting.
🔍 HOW IT WORKS — General
The General study looks at a user-defined sequence of consecutive bars (configurable from 2 to 10). A LONG signal occurs when delta shows a strict monotonic increase across the selected bars; a SHORT signal when delta strictly decreases.
🟢 LONG
- Consecutive bars with increasing delta
- Each bar's delta must be greater than the previous
- Optional filters: require final bar delta & require bullish close
🔴 SHORT
- Consecutive bars with decreasing delta
- Each bar's delta must be less than the previous
- Optional filters: require final bar delta & require bearish close
💡 REAL TRADING EXAMPLE — General
Price made a new low which was rejected. The final bar showed strong positive delta and formed after a progressive improvement in delta across the prior bars, triggering a LONG entry at bar close:
Result: Entry at bar close produced a profitable move — delta progressed from strongly negative to positive, indicating pressure reversal.
Tip: set the consecutive bars input (2–10) to match your timeframe and risk profile.
⚙️ STUDY SETTINGS — General
🔍 HOW IT WORKS — Smart Pattern
The Smart Pattern study detects a defined 4-bar pattern (A → B → C → D) using percentage thresholds. By default it evaluates 4 bars (A,B,C,D). The logic checks relative delta "extremeness" using two thresholds:
Pattern checks (Pattern 1):
- Bar A and B establish direction (positive/negative)
- Bar C must be more extreme than B by a B→C % threshold (configurable)
- Bar D must be more extreme than C by a C→D % threshold (configurable)
These thresholds are percent-based and fully configurable to tune sensitivity for your instrument and timeframe.
💡 REAL TRADING EXAMPLE — Smart Pattern
Example SHORT Pattern: Bar A showed moderate buying delta, Bar B flipped slightly negative, then Bar C became significantly more negative than B and Bar D extended the negative move beyond the C threshold — the study flagged a SHORT.
Interpretation: DeltaC (−95) is more negative than DeltaB (−40) by the B→C threshold, and DeltaD (−140) is more negative than DeltaC by the C→D threshold — pattern validated, SHORT signal generated.
⚙️ STUDY SETTINGS — Smart Pattern
✨ KEY FEATURES
- Flexible configuration — consecutive bars configurable (2–10) in General study; percent thresholds in Smart Pattern.
- Order-flow delta — uses Ask − Bid across VAP levels for accurate flow measurement.
- Smart thresholds — Smart Pattern uses percent thresholds to detect structurally significant moves.
- Unlimited Sierra Chart sounds — choose any available Sierra Chart alert sound for notifications.
- Visual options — triangle markers or custom text labels for both studies.
- No historical repaint — studies evaluate on closed bars so past signals remain fixed.

📋 BEST PRACTICES
- Use with Support/Resistance: high-probability setups often appear near key levels.
- Wait for bar close: signals on forming bars are provisional until the bar completes.
- Combine with trend context: LONG signals have higher edge in uptrends; SHORT in downtrends.
- Enable filters: use delta polarity & candle direction filters to improve trade quality.
- Combine with other order-flow indicators: for higher probability setups combine with Exhaustion Indicator, Bullish/Bearish POC, Delta Divergence, Delta Slingshots, Order Flow Ratio, Volume Sequencing.
