Methodology
Last updated: April 28, 2026
An agreement zone is a price area where multiple independent technical methods lined up. The more that agreed, the stronger the zone. The indicator draws and ranks these for you across every timeframe, then narrates in plain English what happened when price reached one — past tense, never a prediction. The methods it combines and how they're weighted are proprietary.
What it is
Yes No Levels is a single TradingView indicator that reads the same chart you do and marks the price areas where independent technical methods historically converged — then watches them live. Where several methods line up, the zone is stronger; where few do, it is weaker. You get the levels, drawn and ranked, without flipping through timeframes by hand.
The specific methods it combines, how each is weighted, and how the on-chart context is calibrated are proprietary — that composite is the product, and it is not published here. The building blocks are the classical tools every technical trader already knows; the originality is in how they're combined, which is why "agreement zones" are unique to Yes No Levels.
Validation
The indicator was stress-tested across more than 1,800 instruments using Monte Carlo simulation and walk-forward, out-of-sample validation — no overfit signature, stable across the test window. When a claim did not survive out-of-sample testing, it was removed. Any figure shown is a historical observation, bounded by what those tests measured; it is a level-behavior rate, not a trade return, and it does not predict the future. Exactly what was measured and how it is calibrated is part of the proprietary method.
Honest Probability Framing
Every percentage in the on-chart narrative is past-tense by construction:
- "backtested" — the rate observed in the historical dataset
- "historically" — same, used for older or sparse samples
- "hist." — abbreviation when narrative space is tight
You will not see "will," "expect," "predict," "buy," "sell," "long," "short," "target," "setup," or any phrase suggesting a recommendation. The narrative describes where price is and what historical rates apply at that location. A daily linter scans every alert for forward-looking or directive language; the alert pipeline halts on a violation.
Repaint Behavior
Zones are computed at session lock and do not move retroactively. Once a session closes and a zone is drawn, that zone's price levels and category count are fixed for the life of the chart. Replay mode in TradingView occasionally renders zones at slightly different positions than live charts due to a known TradingView platform behavior with multi-timeframe data — live charts are the source of truth.
Probability claims displayed in narratives reference the script version that fired the alert, captured in the |V:vXX.YY| meta tag at the end of every alert payload. A claim displayed under v17.20 will not change if the script is later updated to v17.30 — historical alert records preserve the version they were generated under.
Originality
The "agreement zone" composite is original to Yes No Levels. The underlying building blocks are classical technical tools every trader knows; the originality — and the part that stays proprietary — is how they are combined, weighted, and calibrated into a single read.
Important: This page describes how the indicator computes its outputs and what its outputs mean. It does not promise any particular trading outcome. Past observed rates are not predictive of future rates, and the gap between historical reach percentages and your individual trading P&L is generally large.
