Original indicator Credits:

The purpose of this publication is not to copy-paste the LuxAlgo indicator, but to present a modified version adapted in line with the concepts taught by Trading Cafe India (TCI).
These modifications include adjustments and refinements to better reflect the methodology followed by TCI, while still acknowledging the foundation laid by LuxAlgo.

⚠️ Important Notes:

This script is not an official LuxAlgo product.

This script is not an official TCI product.
This pretty much aligns with the TCI theory.

It is an independent, educational adaptation created for users who wish to see SMC concepts in the context of TCI-style modifications.

The modifications are original contributions and the script has been republished with the intention of providing additional learning value to the TradingView community.

By publishing this indicator, I fully respect and acknowledge the original author (LuxAlgo), while making clear that the changes applied are my own interpretation of SMC principles influenced by TCI’s teachings.

🔧 Key Functionalities & Modifications

Market Structure Labels

The standard Break of Structure (BOS) is now presented as Breaker, aligning with TCI’s interpretation.

The standard Change of Character (CHoCH) is now presented as Trap, reflecting how false moves and liquidity traps are often observed in Indian indices like Nifty & Bank Nifty.

Order Block & Liquidity Concepts

Retains core order block, supply-demand, and liquidity zone logic from the SMC framework.

Visuals and labels have been adjusted for easier interpretation by intraday traders in Indian markets.

Custom Adaptation for Indian Audience

Naming conventions and alerts have been optimized so beginners and experienced traders in India can relate to the terminology taught by TCI.

Chart annotations have been simplified to reduce clutter, making it more practical for real-time option trading and scalping strategies.
