3 TAS Market Map I N D I C A T O R WHAT IT DOES The TAS Market Map delivers volume- at- price " profiles" as a horizontal histogram layover that makes it easy to identify the relative distribution of the highest volume price zones known as "value areas." The use of our proprietary color- coded cues allows the user to accurately identify these distinct zones easier than outdated letter- based indicators. TAS Market Map reveals clearly if markets are likely to trade sideways or vertically. Our #1 Free Profiling Indicator!

4 D I S P L A Y K E Y RED Lines: The zone of prices known as the "value area" that contains approximately 70% of the volume transacted over the period analyzed. It is a popular area for commercial and institutional participation. PURPLE Lines: The zone of prices in the first tier "outside of value" that contains less volume-at-price than the red zone, but more than the blue zone. While there still is willingness for traders to transact in this zone, it represents a minority share of volume. BLUE Lines: The zone of prices where there is the least relative volume transacted and there is little interest of commercial participation. These zones are commonly referred to as "runaway gaps" or "rejection tails." YELLOW Lines: This line (or lines) represent the "Point of Control" (POC) and reveal where the most volume has transacted over the period analyzed. GREEN Lines: These lines represent lower volume breaks and referred to as "valleys." They may appear within a zone or in between differing zones.

5 T H E B A S I C S INSIDE THE VALUE AREA: When the market is inside the "value area" RED zone, markets are considered in balance and are likely to trade sideways or horizontally. The upper part of the red zone will serve as resistance and the lower portion will be support when the market is contained within this defined value area. Resistance Support OUTSIDE THE VALUE AREA: When the market closes outside of the "value area" RED zone, markets are considered out of balance and are likely to trade vertically in breakout mode. The upper and lower parts of the value area red zone will now serve as support or resistance respectively. New Resistance

6 A L L I G A T O R J A W S A Trader Steve Chart Favorite WHAT IS AN ALLIGATOR JAWS SETUP? This popular chart formation occurs when there are two distinct and well-defined volume accumulation zones that create the appearance of the side profile of an alligator with its mouth open. The lack of volume in between the two jaws creates a volume gap and provides a high-probability trading opportunity if the market moves back through the volume gap (open mouth). Sample Strategy: * ENTRY: 1st bar close back inside the open alligator's mouth. * STOP LOSS: Initial stop on the other side of the value area (RED zone). * TARGET: 1st target at 50% penetration, 2nd target just before other jaw line. Top Jaw Volume Gap (open mouth) Bottom Jaw Top Jaw

The user can define how many Maps they want on the chart and the number of bars of analysis contains within them.

7 M U L T I P L E M A P S MULTIPLE MAPS: One of the unique features of the TAS Market Map is the ability to plot multiple volume profiles on a single chart. This provides valuable historical volumeat-price information that can be used to project price targets and future support and resistance levels beyond the most recent profile. The user can define how many Maps they want on the chart and the number of bars of analysis contains within them. Map 3 Map 2 Map 1 SETTING UP MULTIPLE MAPS: In the TradeStation TradingApp Store, the TAS Market Map defaults to showing 3 Maps when applied to the chart (see Settings section of this manual). However, if you are using an alternate DLL version you may be required to apply separate instances of the indicator and adjust the following settings. Bar1: How many bars from present analysis starts. Bar2: How many bars from present analysis stops. The Result: In this example, you'll have 3 separate instances of the TAS Market Map listed as applied studies, each with different settings for Bar1 and Bar2.

Density: Determines the transparency level by settings the number of horizontal lines that comprise the TAS Market Map. The higher the number, the more dense the output. DEFAULT is 50.

8 S E T T I N G S INPUTS: NumOfBars: Determines the number of historical price bars each TAS Market Map will depict. DEFAULT is 50. MapsNum: Determines the number of TAS Market Maps that will appear on the chart when the indicator is applied. DEFAULT is 3. Density: Determines the transparency level by settings the number of horizontal lines that comprise the TAS Market Map. The higher the number, the more dense the output. DEFAULT is 50. SCALING: The TAS Market Map is designed to be applied to the chart as a layover in the same pane as the price bars. Therefore, be sure to set the Scaling settings as "Same Axis as Underlying Data" and make sure the sub-graph correctly matches as well. S E T T I N G S JACKHOPPER@GMAIL.COM
