Price Acceptance Map

Price Acceptance Map
Price Acceptance Map is a read-only market context indicator that evaluates whether newly asserted price levels are being accepted, rejected, or remain undefined by subsequent market behavior.
Rather than treating trend continuation as confirmation, this indicator frames directional price movement as an attempt to establish a new auction level. That attempt must then be validated or rejected after the fact.
The indicator follows three conceptual steps:
Environment Qualification
Evaluation is permitted only when market structure and volatility conditions are suitable. When these conditions are not met, the indicator intentionally remains silent.
Level Assertion Detection
Meaningful price expansion beyond recent balance is interpreted as a level claim. Gradual movement may result in no level being defined.
Acceptance Verdict
Subsequent price behavior determines whether the level is:
Accepted (held by the market),
Rejected (failed and returned into prior balance), or
Undefined (no valid level requiring a verdict).
The current state is displayed using a simple, non-interpretive panel:
ACCEPTED / LEVEL ACCEPTED
NOT ACCEPTED / LEVEL REJECTED
UNRESOLVED / LEVEL UNDEFINED
Important Notes
Indicator only (no signals, no orders)
Evaluated on confirmed bar close
No intentional repaint or lookahead logic
Designed for contextual analysis, not prediction
Price Acceptance Map is intended to clarify when the market is making a decision — and when it is not.
