# Re-accumulation vs Re-distribution Diagnosis

Re-accumulation vs Re-distribution Diagnosis is an indicator on [Vela](https://vela.luxalgo.com/chart), our next-generation charting platform, written in Pine Script®.

Opens a diagnosis whenever a compressed range forms after a 3-ATR trend leg, then weighs entry character, volume asymmetry, edge tests, shakeouts, upthrusts and change of character into a live up-resolution score. The range box shades with the running read, a dashboard itemizes every evidence class, and thirteen alerts run from range detection to the held break that settles the verdict.

**Re-accumulation vs Re-distribution Diagnosis** scores the mid-trend question: pause or reversal. A compression after a qualifying trend leg opens the [re-accumulation vs re-distribution diagnosis](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/concept/re-accumulation-vs-re-distribution-diagnosis/), and evidence is weighed (entry character, volume asymmetry, edge tests, shakeouts versus upthrusts, the change-of-character tell) into a signed score read as an up-resolution percentage. The box shades with the score; only a held break settles it.

## How to Trade the Re-accumulation vs Re-distribution Diagnosis?

- **Evidence labels**: ST support tests (drying up bullish, harder bearish), SO shakeouts, UT upthrust failures, CHoCH an out-scaled counter-trend reaction.
- **Lean crossings**: a score beyond the lean threshold reads re-accumulation likely or distribution risk (mirrored after declines); alerted both ways.
- **Resolution**: closes holding beyond an edge settle re-accumulation, distribution, re-distribution or accumulation; follow-through volume noted.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How is this different from Accumulation vs Distribution Ranges?

[Accumulation vs Distribution Ranges](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/accumulation-vs-distribution-ranges/) classifies any qualifying consolidation; this build opens only on mid-trend ranges, adds a continuation prior, and scores discrete Wyckoff events both ways.

### What is the up-resolution percentage?

The clamped score mapped onto a 0-100 scale centered at 50, a probability-style read, never a verdict; resolution labels record the final score.

### Why did a range expire unresolved?

It hit the Maximum Range Duration cap: chart hygiene, as Wyckoff ties range width to the coming move, not a calendar norm; the range is recorded as expired.
