XAU Seasonality + Setup Quality + Month Strength | WarRoomXYZXAU Seasonality Engine is a technical analysis indicator developed for the study of recurring, calendar-based behavior on XAUUSD (Gold).
The tool blends month-of-year seasonality statistics with higher-timeframe context and a setup-quality gate to help users observe when market conditions historically lean strong, weak, or neutral — and how strict trade selection should be during each regime.
Indicator Concept
An indicator for XAUUSD that combines:
1. Seasonality Regime (Month-of-Year Bias)
► Classifies the current month as Strong / Weak / Neutral based on either:
• Preset months (user-defined)
or
• Auto mode (computed from historical monthly performance)
► Strong months suggest a bullish tailwind (not a signal).
► Weak months suggest headwind / caution and require stricter setup quality.
2. Monthly Performance Engine (Under the Hood)
► Uses the symbol’s monthly timeframe data to compute, per calendar month:
• Average monthly return (%)
• Win rate (%) — how often that month closes positive
• Month Strength Score (0–100) — a blended score derived from performance data
► The score is designed to provide a relative strength snapshot of seasonality by month.
3. Month Strength Histogram
► Plots a histogram (0–100) of the current month’s strength score.
• Higher bars = historically stronger month tendency
• Lower bars = historically weaker month tendency
► Optional horizontal reference lines mark “strong” and “weak” zones to make regimes obvious at a glance.
4. Setup Quality Meter (Confluence Filter)
► The indicator calculates a Setup Quality Score (0–100) using market structure and momentum components, such as:
• EMA trend alignment
• Momentum confirmation (EMA fast vs slow)
• Structure break confirmation (BOS)
• Liquidity sweep behavior
• Candle confirmation logic
► This score is intended as a trade-selectivity filter , not a trade executor.
5. Adaptive Rules for Weak Months (Strict Mode)
► When the indicator detects a weak seasonal regime, conditions automatically tighten:
• The A+ threshold increases (adaptive thresholding)
• Optional rule: Weak months require BOS + Sweep + FVG simultaneously before any A+ condition is considered valid
This forces the user into “higher-quality-only” behavior during historically weaker seasonal periods.
🔹1 Visual Components Included

• Optional background shading based on regime
• Month Strength Score histogram (0–100)
• Current month stats: Avg return + win rate
• Setup Quality Meter value (0–100)

• Optional alerts when strict criteria are met
➣What Means in the XAU Indicator
🔹 Definition (in THIS indicator)
Win Rate = the percentage of historical months that closed positive for the same calendar month.
It is NOT:
trade win rate ❌
signal accuracy ❌
It is a s tatistical seasonality metric .
How It’s Calculated
For each calendar month (January, February, etc.), the indicator:
1.Looks at historical monthly candles (Monthly timeframe).
2. Counts how many times that month:
•Closed higher than it opened (or higher than previous month close).
3. Divides:
Number of positive months
÷
Total number of observed months
× 100
Example: September
If over the last 20 years:
September closed green 14 times
September closed red 6 times
Then:
Win Rate = (14 / 20) × 100 = 70%
That’s what you see as in the dashboard.
What the Win Rate Is Used For
1️⃣ Part of the Month Strength Score
The indicator blends:
•Average Monthly Return (%) → measures magnitude
•Win Rate (%) → measures consistency
Combined into:
Month Strength Score (0–100)
This avoids a common trap:
•A month with 1 huge rally but many losses ≠ reliable
•A month with steady positive closes = higher quality environment
What Win Rate Tells You
High Win Rate (e.g. 65–75%)
•Gold more often closes higher in this month
•Continuation is statistically more likely
•Pullbacks are more likely to resolve in trend direction
Low Win Rate (e.g. 35–45%)
•Gold more often fails to close higher
•More chop, deeper retracements, false breakouts
•Continuation trades statistically struggle
What It Does NOT Tell You
🚫 It does NOT mean:
•“You will win 70% of your trades”
•“Every setup in this month works”
•“Direction is guaranteed”
Seasonality is context, not prediction.
Why This Is Powerful When Combined With Your System
On its own, win rate is just data.
But in your indicator, it’s used to:
•🔒 Raise the A+ threshold in weak months
•🧠 Force BOS + Sweep + FVG confluence
•❌ Block marginal setups automatically
So instead of guessing:
-“Why is gold so choppy this month?”
You know:
-“This month historically underperforms SO I must be stricter.”
➣What Means in the XAU Seasonality Indicator
🔹 Definition (in THIS indicator)
Avg Monthly Return = the average percentage gain or loss of XAUUSD for a specific calendar month, calculated across many years.
It measures magnitude , not frequency.
It is NOT:
•trade profit ❌
•expected return for the next month ❌
•guaranteed performance ❌
It is a historical seasonality tendency.
How It’s Calculated
For each calendar month (January, February, etc.), the indicator:
1.Takes every historical occurrence of that month.
2.Calculates the percentage change of the monthly candle:
(Monthly Close − Previous Monthly Close)
÷ Previous Monthly Close × 100
3. Adds all those percentage changes together.
4. Divides by the total number of observations.
Example: September
Assume over 20 years:
+2.4%, +1.1%, −0.6%, +3.0%, +1.8%, ...
If the sum of all September returns = +28% across 20 years:
Avg Monthly Return = +1.40%
That’s the number displayed in the indicator.
What Avg Monthly Return Is Used For
1️⃣ Measuring Strength of Movement
•Win Rate → “How often does it close green?”
•Avg Monthly Return → “How big are the moves when it works?”
Both are needed.
A month can:
•Win often but move very little
•Move a lot but only occasionally
The indicator combines both to avoid misleading conclusions.
How to Interpret Avg Monthly Return
Positive Avg Return (e.g. +0.8% to +2.0%)
•Gold tends to expand during this month
•Continuation phases are more likely
•Pullbacks are often absorbed
Near-Zero Avg Return (e.g. −0.2% to +0.2%)
•Market is statistically balanced
•Expect chop, rotations, false breaks
•Continuation is less reliable
Negative Avg Return (e.g. −0.5% or worse)
•Downward pressure or heavy mean reversion
•Rallies often fade
•Risk of aggressive stop hunts
What Avg Monthly Return Does NOT Mean
🚫 It does NOT mean:
•“Price will move +1.4% this month”
•“You should buy because the number is positive”
•“This is a guaranteed edge”
It describes historical behavior, not future certainty.
Why Avg Monthly Return Matters More Than People Think
Two months can have the same win rate but behave very differently:
Example:
Month Win Rate Avg Return Reality
Month A 65% +0.2% Small, choppy wins
Month B 55% +1.6% Fewer wins, but strong expansions
Your indicator would rank Month B as stronger, which is correct for continuation-based strategies.
How It Feeds the Month Strength Score
The indicator blends:
•60% Avg Monthly Return (normalized)
•40% Win Rate
This means:
•Big moves matter more than small consistency
•But consistency still matters enough to prevent distortion
Result:
Month Strength Score (0–100)
Which is then used to:
•tighten or relax A+ thresholds
•activate weak-month strict rules
•control trade frequency
🔹2. Intended Use
The indicator is designed as a discretionary analysis tool to support study of:
• seasonal bias and calendar tendencies
• relative strength/weakness across months
• how strict trade selection should be across different regimes
• confluence behavior when seasonal conditions are unfavorable
The tool does not generate forecasts, does not guarantee outcomes, and should not be relied upon as a stand-alone decision mechanism.
🔹3.How to Use XAU Seasonality Engine
Recommended charts: XAUUSD, intraday (5m–15m) with a HTF context (1H–4H).
1. Identify the Seasonal Regime
• Strong month → you can allow more continuation bias (still require structure).
• Neutral month → trade normally, standard criteria.
• Weak month → tighten selection, demand clean A+ conditions only.
2. Read the Month Strength Histogram
• If the score is high (e.g., 70+), the month has historically shown stronger tendency.
• If the score is low (e.g., 40 and below), expect slower conditions, deeper pullbacks, or more chop — and reduce marginal trades.
3. Use the Setup Quality Meter as the Gate
► In normal/strong months:
• A+ threshold is moderate (e.g., 70)
► In weak months:
• A+ threshold is higher (e.g., 80+)
• Optional strict mode: must also pass BOS + Sweep + FVG alignment
4. Example Trade Logic (Framework, Not Signals)
► Bullish framework in a Strong Month:
• Seasonal regime = Strong (tailwind)
• Structure supports bullish continuation (trend alignment)
• Sweep occurs into demand / liquidity grab
• Setup Quality reaches A+ threshold
• Entry: confirmation candle or retrace to key level
• SL: beyond sweep low / invalidation
• TP: nearest liquidity / prior highs / HTF level
► Weak Month rule-set (Strict Mode):
• Seasonal regime = Weak (headwind)
• Only consider trades if:
✅ BOS confirms direction
✅ Sweep occurs and rejects cleanly
✅ FVG exists recently (or is mitigated if you choose that model)
✅ Setup Quality exceeds the elevated adaptive threshold
If any one is missing → no trade
This is not meant to “predict” gold — it’s meant to enforce discipline when seasonality historically underperforms.
🔹4.Limitations and User Responsibility
► The indicator does not represent financial advice or imply performance expectations.
► Seasonality is statistical tendency, not certainty — macro conditions can override it.
► Results vary by broker feed, timeframe, and settings.
► Users should test thoroughly in simulation before applying to live markets.
► All trading decisions, risk management, and execution remain solely the responsibility of the user.
🔹5. Alerts
Optional alerts can notify when:
• a new month begins and the seasonal regime changes
• A+ criteria are met
• weak-month strict conditions pass (BOS + Sweep + FVG)
Alerts are informational only and do not constitute actionable recommendations.

Close-Only Market StructureDYOR NFA
Function of the Close-Only Market Structure Script
The script is a custom indicator designed to display the market's structural trend based only on closing prices, ignoring price wicks (highs and lows) to focus on conviction.
pivotLengthInt Input: This user setting controls the sensitivity of the structure detection. It determines how many bars to look left and right to define a swing point (e.g., a setting of 5 means a bar's close must be the highest/lowest of the 5 preceding and 5 succeeding bars).
Swing Point Identification (SH/SL): It uses the ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions on the close price series to define Swing Highs (SH) and Swing Lows (SL).
Structure Tracking (structureType): It compares the most recent confirmed SH and SL against the immediately preceding ones (prevSH and prevSL) to classify the trend as one of the following four states:
HH (Higher High, Higher Low): Strong Uptrend
LL (Lower High, Lower Low): Strong Downtrend
HL/LH: Complex structure, consolidation, or reversal zones.
Structure Lines: It plots two continuous stepped lines (lastSH and lastSL) that hold the price of the most recent confirmed swing points, visually defining the current structure boundaries.
BOS Detection (Break of Structure): It identifies and plots a marker (BOS) when the current bar's close definitively breaks (closes above) the lastSH or closes below the lastSL, signaling a continuation of the trend or a major structural change.
Visual Confirmation:
Plots small SH/SL labels at the confirmed swing points.
Plots small HH/HL/LH/LL labels at the swing points to show the confirmed structural state.
Applies a light background color (green for bullish/ranging-up, red for bearish/ranging-down) for an at-a-glance view of the bias.
Alerts: It provides conditions for setting up notifications when a Bullish BOS or Bearish BOS occurs.
🚀 How to Use the Script
Open TradingView: Go to the chart where you want to apply the indicator.
Open Pine Editor: Click the Pine Editor tab at the bottom of the screen.
Paste and Save:
Copy the final, corrected Pine Script code.
Delete any existing code in the editor and paste the new code.
Click the Save button (or name the script) and then click Add to Chart.
Adjust Settings:
On the chart, hover over the indicator name ("Close-MS v6") and click the Gear Icon (Settings).
Pivot Lookback (L&R): Change this value to adjust sensitivity:
Smaller number (e.g., 3): More swings detected, structure changes faster, more noise.
Larger number (e.g., 10): Fewer swings detected, structure is more significant, less noise (recommended for higher timeframes).
Interpret the Chart:
The Red Stepped Line shows your current resistance (SH).
The Green Stepped Line shows your current support (SL).
Green Background: General bullish bias (making Higher Highs/Lows).
Red Background: General bearish bias (making Lower Highs/Lows).
BOS Triangle: Signals that the price has closed and validated a break of the previous structural high or low.
Set Alerts (Optional):
Click the Alert button (bell icon) on the TradingView toolbar.
Set the Condition to the indicator ("Close-MS v6").
Select the specific Alert Condition you want to monitor (e.g., "Bullish BOS" or "Bearish BOS").
Smart Money Trades Pro [BOSWaves]Smart Money Trades Pro – Advanced Market Structure & Liquidity Visualizer
Overview
Smart Money Trades Pro is a comprehensive trading tool designed for traders seeking an in-depth understanding of market structure, liquidity dynamics, and institutional flow. The indicator systematically identifies key market turning points, including break of structure (BOS) and change of character (CHoCH) events, and overlays these with adaptive visualizations to highlight high-probability trade setups. By integrating ATR-based risk zones, progressive take-profit levels, and real-time trade analytics, Smart Money Trades Pro transforms complex price action into an interpretable framework suitable for multiple trading styles, including scalping, intraday, and swing trading.
Unlike traditional static indicators, Smart Money Trades Pro adapts continuously to market conditions. It evaluates swing highs and lows over a configurable lookback period, then determines structural breaks using customizable confirmation methods (candle body or wick). The resulting signals are augmented with dynamic entry, stop-loss, and target levels, allowing traders to analyze potential trade opportunities with both precision and context. The indicator’s design ensures that each visual element—trend-colored candles, signal markers, and risk/reward boxes—reflects real-time market conditions, offering an actionable interpretation of institutional activity.
How It Works
The indicator’s foundation is built upon market structure analysis. By calculating pivot highs and lows over a specified period, Smart Money Trades Pro identifies potential points of liquidity accumulation and exhaustion. When price breaks a pivot high or low, the indicator evaluates whether this constitutes a BOS or a CHoCH, signaling trend continuation or reversal. These events are marked on the chart with distinct visual cues, allowing traders to quickly discern shifts in market sentiment without manually analyzing historical price action.
Once a structural break is confirmed, the indicator automatically determines entry levels, stop-loss placements, and progressive take-profit zones (TP1, TP2, TP3). These calculations are based on ATR-derived volatility, ensuring that targets scale with current market conditions. Risk and reward zones are plotted as shaded boxes, providing a clear visual representation of potential profit relative to risk for each trade setup. This system allows traders to maintain discipline and consistency, with dynamic trade management baked directly into the visualization.
Trend direction is further reinforced by color-coded candles, which reflect the prevailing market bias. Bullish trends are represented by one color, bearish trends by another, and neutral conditions are displayed in muted tones. This continuous visual feedback simplifies the process of trend assessment and helps confirm the validity of trade setups alongside BOS and CHoCH markers.
Signals and Breakouts
Smart Money Trades Pro includes structured visual signals to indicate actionable price movements:
Bullish Break Signals – Triangular markers below the candle appear when a swing high is broken, suggesting potential long opportunities.
Bearish Break Signals – Triangular markers above the candle appear when a swing low is broken, indicating potential short setups.
Change of Character (CHoCH) – Special markers highlight trend reversals, showing where momentum shifts from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
These markers are strategically spaced to prevent overlap and remain clear during high-volatility periods. Traders can use them in combination with trend-colored candles, risk/reward zones, and ATR-based targets to assess the strength and reliability of each setup. The integrated table provides live trade information, including entry price, stop-loss level, take-profit levels, risk/reward ratio, and trade direction, ensuring that trade decisions are informed and data-driven.
Interpretation
Trend Analysis : The indicator’s trend coloring, combined with BOS and CHoCH detection, provides an immediate view of market direction. Rising structures indicate bullish momentum, while falling structures signal bearish momentum. CHoCH markers highlight potential trend reversals or significant liquidity sweeps.
Volatility and Risk Assessment : ATR-based calculations determine stop-loss distances and target levels, giving a quantitative measure of risk relative to market volatility. Wide ATR readings indicate periods of high price fluctuation, whereas narrow readings suggest consolidation and reduced risk exposure.
Market Structure Insights : By monitoring swing highs and lows alongside break confirmations, traders can identify where institutional players are likely active. Areas with multiple structural breaks or overlapping targets can indicate liquidity hotspots, potential reversal zones, or areas of market congestion.
Trade Management : The built-in trade zones allow traders to visualize entry, risk, and reward simultaneously. Progressive targets (TP1, TP2, TP3) reflect incremental profit-taking strategies, while dynamic stop-loss levels help preserve capital during adverse moves.
Strategy Integration
Smart Money Trades Pro supports a range of trading approaches:
Trend Following : Enter trades in the direction of confirmed BOS while using CHoCH markers and trend-colored candles to validate momentum.
Pullback Entries : Use failed breakout retests or minor reversals toward broken structure levels for lower-risk entries.
Mean Reversion : In consolidated zones with narrow ATR and repeated BOS/CHoCH activity, anticipate reversals or short-term corrective moves.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Overlay signals on higher or lower timeframes to filter noise and improve trade accuracy.
Stop-loss levels should be placed just beyond the opposing structural point, while take-profit targets can be scaled using the ATR-based zones. Progressive targets allow for partial exits or scaling out of trades while maintaining exposure to larger moves.
Advanced Techniques
Traders seeking greater precision can combine Smart Money Trades Pro with volume, momentum, or volatility indicators to validate signals. Observing sequences of BOS and CHoCH markers across multiple timeframes provides insight into liquidity accumulation and depletion trends. Tracking the expansion or contraction of ATR-based zones helps anticipate shifts in volatility, enabling better timing for entries and exits.
Customizing the structure period and confirmation type allows the indicator to adapt to different asset classes and timeframes. Shorter periods increase sensitivity to smaller swings, while longer periods filter noise and emphasize higher-probability structural breaks. By integrating these features, the indicator offers a robust statistical framework for disciplined, data-driven trading decisions.
Inputs and Customization
Structure Detection Period : Defines the lookback window for pivot high and low calculation.
Break Confirmation : Choose whether to confirm breaks using candle body or wick.
Display CHoCH : Toggle visibility of change-of-character markers.

Supply/Demand Market Structure (SMA Multi-Timeframe)Supply/Demand Based Market Structure
Structure + Order Blocks from Synthetic SMA Candles
Overview:
The SMA Supply/Demand Market Structure indicator combines market structure analysis with supply/demand logic, powered by SMA-based synthetic candles . Instead of relying on raw candle data, this tool generates smoothed higher-timeframe candles using simple moving averages to identify more stable zones and cleaner structure shifts.
It detects bullish and bearish breaks of structure (BoS) , highlights swing points like HH, HL, LH, LL , and plots institutional-style supply and demand zones formed from aggressive rallies or drops. The result is a precise and noise-filtered view of market intent, perfect for trend-following or smart money strategies.
How It Works:
- Synthetic candles are created using SMA of OHLC values on your selected timeframe (HTF).
- A bullish break occurs when price closes above the high of the last bearish synthetic candle.
- A bearish break occurs when price closes below the low of the last bullish synthetic candle.
- Upon break confirmation:
- A demand zone is drawn using the last bearish candle.
- A supply zone is drawn using the last bullish candle.
- Each zone is extended forward for a user-defined number of bars and optionally deleted upon mitigation.
- Zigzag-based internal structure connects valid swing points and classifies them as HH, HL, LH, LL , including Liquidity Sweeps (LS) .
- BoS levels are highlighted with lines that automatically reset when new structure forms.
Key Features:
- Synthetic SMA Candles : Smooth and reliable structure from average-based HTF candles
- Break Modes : Choose between raw HTF closes or SMA closes for break logic
- Custom Timeframe Selection : Analyze structure across any HTF you choose
- Dynamic Supply/Demand Zones : Auto-plot boxes from valid rallies/drops
- Mitigation Detection : Optionally fade or delete zones when price trades through
- Zigzag Structure Mapping : Automatically connect structural highs/lows
- BoS Detection : Real-time breakout of swing points with visual confirmation
- Smart Labels : Marks HH, HL, LH, LL, and LS directly on the chart
- Multi-timeframe Alert System : Notify for all structural changes, BoS, and new zones
How to Use:
- Set your desired HTF and SMA Length for synthetic candle smoothing.
- Use SMA=1 for raw candles
- Select a Break Mode :
- Raw Close : Uses standard HTF close values
- SMA Close : Uses smoothed closes from SMA
- Watch for bullish or bearish breaks — zones are plotted when price confirms breakout structure.
- Use demand zones as long entry areas and supply zones as short setups on retests.
- Rely on internal shifts and zigzag swings to monitor structure continuity.
- Enable alerts for swing formations, BoS, and liquidity sweeps to trade hands-free.
Recommended Strategies:
- Smart Money & ICT Models : Use synthetic demand/supply + BoS for mitigation or continuation plays
- Swing Trading : Align with higher timeframe structure and use zones for entry triggers
- Trend Trading : Confirm structure alignment and wait for pullbacks into zones
- Reversal Entries : Trade structure breaks when zones fail and a BoS confirms the shift
Customization Options:
- Timeframe input for custom HTF control
- SMA Length to adjust candle smoothing
- Zone Style : Control zone color, transparency, and duration
- Structure Display : Toggle swing labels and zigzag visuals
- Alert Mode : Choose between LTF, MTF, or HTF alerts
Summary:
SMA Supply/Demand Market Structure provides a clean, flexible view of price structure and institutional intent by fusing market structure with SMA-based synthetic candles. It’s ideal for anyone seeking reduced noise, visually guided entries, and rule-based trading based on structural shifts and real-time demand/supply dynamics.
Structure Break + Confirmation (First Signal Only)Swing Detection:
A Swing High is detected when the high of the central candle (based on a lookback period) is greater than the highs of the candles before and after.
A Swing Low is detected when the low of the central candle is lower than the lows of the candles before and after.
Break of Structure (BOS):
A BOS Up is confirmed when a candle closes above the most recent swing high (with a body close).
A BOS Down is confirmed when a candle closes below the most recent swing low.
Confirmation (CONF):
A CONF Up is triggered when price makes a new high after a BOS Up.
A CONF Down is triggered when price makes a new low after a BOS Down.
Only the first confirmation after a BOS is plotted.
Visuals:
Cross marks (×) are plotted at swing points.
BOS signals are shown with green (up) and red (down) labels.
CONF signals are shown with lime (up) and orange (down) triangle markers.
Dotted lines are drawn at the levels of broken swing highs/lows.
Ultra Market StructureThe Ultra Market Structure indicator detects key market structure breaks, such as Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH), to help identify trend reversals. It plots lines and labels on the chart to visualize these breakpoints with alerts for important signals.
Introduction
This script is designed to help traders visualize important market structure events, such as trend breaks and reversals, using concepts like Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH). The indicator highlights internal and external price levels where the market shifts direction. It offers clear visual signals and alerts to keep traders informed of potential changes in the market trend.
Detailed Description
The indicator focuses on detecting "market structure breaks," which occur when the price moves past significant support or resistance levels, suggesting a potential reversal or continuation of the trend.
.........
Type of structure
Internal Structure: Focuses on smaller, shorter-term price levels within the current market trend.
External Structure: Focuses on larger, longer-term price levels that may indicate more significant shifts in the market.
.....
Key events
Break of Structure (BoS): A market structure break where the price surpasses a previous high (bullish BoS) or low (bearish BoS).
Change of Character (CHoCH): A shift in market behavior when the price fails to continue in the same direction, indicating a possible trend reversal.
Once a break or shift is detected, the script plots lines and labels on the chart to visually mark the breakpoints.
It also provides alerts when a BoS or CHoCH occurs, keeping traders informed in real-time.
The indicator can color the background and candles based on the market structure, making it easy to identify the current trend.

Fair Value Gaps Setup 01 [TradingFinder] FVG Absorption + CHoCH🔵 Introduction
🟣 Market Structures
Market structures exhibit a fractal and nested nature, which leads us to classify them into internal (minor) and external (major) categories. Definitions of market structure vary, with different methodologies such as Smart Money and ICT offering distinct interpretations.
To identify market structure, the initial step involves examining key highs and lows. An uptrend is characterized by successive highs and lows that are higher than their predecessors. Conversely, a downtrend is marked by successive lows and highs that are lower than their previous counterparts.
🟣 Market Trends and Movements
Market trends consist of two primary types of movements :
Impulsive Movements : These movements align with the main trend and are characterized by high strength and momentum.
Corrective Movements : These movements counter the main trend and are marked by lower strength and momentum.
🟣 Break of Structure (BOS)
In a downtrend, a Break of Structure (BOS) occurs when the price falls below the previous low and establishes a new low (LL). In an uptrend, a BOS, also known as a Market Structure Break (MSB), happens when the price rises above the last high.
To confirm a trend, at least one BOS is necessary, which requires the price to close at least one candle beyond the previous high or low.
🟣 Change of Character (CHOCH)
Change of Character (CHOCH) is a crucial concept in market structure analysis, indicating a shift in trend. A trend concludes with a CHOCH, also referred to as a Market Structure Shift (MSS).
For example, in a downtrend, the price continues to drop with BOS, showcasing the trend's strength. However, when the price rises and exceeds the last high, a CHOCH occurs, signaling a potential transition from a downtrend to an uptrend.
It is essential to note that a CHOCH does not immediately indicate a buy trade. Instead, it is prudent to wait for a BOS in the upward direction to confirm the uptrend. Unlike BOS, a CHOCH confirmation does not require a candle to close; merely breaking the previous high or low with the candle's wick is sufficient.
🟣 Spike | Inefficiency | Imbalance
All these terms mean fast price movement in the shortest possible time.
🟣 Fair Value Gap (FVG)
To pinpoint the "Fair Value Gap" (FVG) on a chart, a detailed candle-by-candle analysis is necessary. This process involves focusing on candles with substantial bodies and evaluating them in relation to the candles immediately before and after them.
Here are the steps :
Identify the Central Candle : Look for a candle with a large body.
Examine Adjacent Candles : The candles before and after this central candle should have long shadows, and their bodies must not overlap with the body of the central candle.
Determine the FVG Range : The distance between the shadows of the first and third candles defines the FVG range.
This method helps in accurately identifying the Fair Value Gap, which is crucial for understanding market inefficiencies and potential price movements.
🟣 Setup
This setup is based on Market Structure and FVG. After a change of character and the formation of FVG in the last lag of the price movement, we are looking for trading positions in the price pullback.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
After forming the setup, you can enter the trade using a pending order or after receiving confirmation. To increase the probability of success, you can adjust the pivot period market structure settings or modify the market movement coefficient in the formation leg of the FVG.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 Setting
Pivot Period of Market Structure Detector :
This parameter allows you to configure the zigzag period based on pivots. Adjusting this helps in accurately detecting order blocks.
Show major Bullish ChoCh Lines :
You can toggle the visibility of the Demand Main Zone and "ChoCh" Origin, and customize their color as needed.
Show major Bearish ChoCh Lines :
Similar to the Demand Main Zone, you can control the visibility and color of the Supply Main Zone and "ChoCh" Origin.
FVG Detector Multiplier Factor :
This feature lets you adjust the size of the moves forming the Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) using the Average True Range (ATR). The default value is 1, suitable for identifying most setups. Adjust this value based on the specific symbol and market for optimal results.
FVG Validity Period :
This parameter defines the validity period of an FVG in terms of the number of candles. By default, an FVG remains valid for up to 15 candles, but you can adjust this period as needed.
Mitigation Level FVG :
This setting establishes the basic level of an FVG. When the price reaches this level, the FVG is considered mitigated.
Level in Low-Risk Zone :
This feature aims to reduce risk by dividing the FVG into two equal areas: "Premium" (upper area) and "Discount" (lower area). For lower risk, ensure that "Demand FVG" is in the "Discount" area and "Supply FVG" in the "Premium" area. This feature is off by default.
Show or Hide :
Given the potential abundance of setups, displaying all on the chart can be overwhelming. By default, only the last setup is shown, but you can enable the option to view all setups.
Alert Settings :
On / Off : Toggle alerts on or off.
Message Frequency : Determine how often alerts are triggered.
Options include :
"All" (alerts every time the function is called)
"Once Per Bar" (alerts only on the first call within the bar)
"Once Per Bar Close" (alerts only at the last script execution of the real-time bar upon closing)
The default setting is "Once Per Bar".
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Set the alert time based on your preferred time zone, such as "UTC-4" for New York time. The default is "UTC".
Display More Info : Optionally show additional details like the price range of the order blocks and the date, hour, and minute in the alert message. Set this to "Off" if you prefer not to receive this information.
FX OSINT - Institutional Midnight Intelligence For ForexFX OSINT — Institutional Midnight Intelligence For Forex
See Your FX Charts Like an Intelligence Briefing, Not a Guess
If you’ve ever stared at EURUSD or GBPJPY and thought:
Where is the real liquidity?
Is this move sponsored by smart money or just noise?
Am I buying into premium or discount?
…then FX OSINT is designed for you.
FX OSINT (Forex Open Source Intelligence) treats the FX market the way an analyst treats an investigation:
Collect open‑source signals from price, time, and volatility.
Map out liquidity, structure, and sessions in a repeatable way.
Present them in a clean, non‑cluttered dashboard so you can read context quickly.
No rainbow spaghetti. No 12 indicators stacked on top of each other. Just structured information, midnight visuals, and a clear read on what the market is doing right now.
Why FX OSINT Exists
Many FX traders run into the same problems:
Overloaded charts – multiple indicators fighting for space, none talking to each other.
Signals with no context – arrows that ignore structure, sessions, and liquidity.
Tools not tuned for FX – generic indicators that don’t care what pair you are on.
FX OSINT brings this together into one FX‑focused framework that:
Understands structure : BOS/CHOCH, swings, and trend across multiple timeframes.
Respects liquidity : sweeps, order blocks, and FVGs with controlled visibility.
Reads volatility & ADR : how far today’s range has developed.
Knows the clock : London, New York, and key killzones.
Scores confluence : a 0–100 engine that summarizes how much is lining up.
FX OSINT is built for traders who want structured, institutional‑style logic with a disciplined, midnight‑themed UI —not flashing buy/sell buttons.
1. Midnight Dashboard — Top‑Right Intelligence Panel
This panel acts as your compact “situation room”:
CONFLUENCE — 0–100 score blending trend alignment, volatility regime, sessions, liquidity events, order blocks, FVGs, and ADR context.
REGIME — Low / Building / Normal / Expansion / Extreme, driven by ATR relationships, so you know if you’re in chop, trend, or expansion.
HTF / MTF / LTF TREND — Higher‑, medium‑, and current‑timeframe bias in one place, so you see if you are trading with or against the larger flow.
ADR USED — How much of today’s typical range has already been consumed in percentage terms.
PIP VALUE — Approximate pip size per pair, including JPY‑style pairs.
Everything is bold, legible, and color‑coded, but the layout stays minimal so you can:
Look once → understand the context.
2. Structure, BOS, CHOCH — Smart‑Money‑Style Skeleton
FX OSINT tracks swing highs and lows, then shows how structure evolves:
Trend logic based on evolving swings, not just a moving average cross.
BOS (Break of Structure) when price expands in the direction of trend.
CHOCH (Change of Character) when behavior flips and the market structure changes.
Labels are selective, not spammy . You don’t get a tag on every minor wiggle—only when structure meaningfully shifts, so it’s easier to answer:
"Are we continuing the current leg, or did something actually change here?"
3. Liquidity Sweeps, Order Blocks & FVGs — The OSINT Layer
FX OSINT treats liquidity as a key information layer:
Liquidity sweeps — Detects when price spikes through recent highs/lows and then snaps back, flagging potential stop runs.
Order blocks — The last opposite candle before a displacement move, drawn as controlled boxes with limited lifespan to avoid clutter.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) — Three‑candle imbalances rendered as precise zones with a cap on how many can exist at once.
Under the hood, boxes are managed so your chart does not become a wall of old zones:
// Draw Order Blocks with overlap prevention
if isBullishOB and showOrderBlocks
if array.size(obBoxes) >= maxBoxes
oldBox = array.shift(obBoxes)
box.delete(oldBox)
newBox = box.new(bar_index , low , bar_index + obvLength, high ,
border_color = bullColor, bgcolor = bullColorTransp,
border_width = 2, extend = extend.none)
array.push(obBoxes, newBox)
Box limits keep the number of zones under control.
Borders and transparency are tuned so you still see price clearly.
You end up with a curated liquidity map , rather than a chart buried under every level price has ever touched.
4. Volatility, ADR & Sessions — Time and Range Intelligence
FX OSINT runs a Volatility Regime Analyzer and an ADR engine in the background:
Volatility regime — Five states (Low → Extreme) derived from fast vs. slow ATR.
ADR bands — Daily high/mid/low projected from the current daily open.
ADR used % — How far today’s move has traveled relative to its typical range.
On the time side:
Asia, London, New York sessions are softly highlighted with a single active background to avoid overlapping colors.
Killzones (e.g., London and New York opens) can be emphasized when you want to focus on where significant moves often begin.
Together, this helps you answer:
"What time is it in the trading day?"
"How stretched are we?"
"Is expansion just starting, or are we late to the move?"
5. ICT‑Style Add‑Ons — BOS/CHOCH, Premium/Discount, and Confluence
For modern FX / ICT‑inspired workflows, FX OSINT includes:
BOS / CHOCH labels — Clear structural shifts based on swings.
Premium / Discount zones — 25%, 50%, 75% levels of the daily range, so you know if you are buying discount in an uptrend or selling premium in a downtrend.
Confluence score — A single number summarizing how many conditions line up in the current context.
Instead of replacing your plan, FX OSINT compresses your checklist into the chart:
Structure
Liquidity
Session / Time
Volatility / ADR
Higher‑timeframe alignment
When these agree, the dashboard reflects it. When they don’t, it stays neutral and lets you see the conflict.
How To Use FX OSINT
FX OSINT is not a signal bot. It is an information engine that organizes context so you can apply your own plan.
A typical workflow might look like:
Start on higher timeframes (e.g., H4/D1) to form directional bias from structure, volatility regime, and ADR context.
Move to intraday timeframes (e.g., M15/H1) around your chosen sessions (London and/or New York).
Look for confluence :
HTF / MTF / LTF trends aligned.
Price in discount for longs or premium for shorts.
Recent liquidity sweep into a meaningful OB or FVG.
Confluence score at or above a level you consider significant.
Then refine entries using BOS/CHOCH on lower timeframes according to your own risk and execution rules.
FX OSINT aims to make sure you do not enter a trade without seeing:
Where you are in the day (ADR and sessions).
Where you are in the volatility cycle (regime).
Who currently appears in control (structure and trend).
Which liquidity was just targeted (sweeps and zones).
Design Choices and Scope
FX OSINT was designed around a few clear constraints:
FX‑focused — Logic and filters tuned for FX majors, minors, exotics, and metals. It is intended for FX markets, not for every possible asset class.
Open‑source — The full Pine Script code is available so you can read it, learn from it, and adapt it to your own workflow if needed.
Clear themes — Two main visual styles (e.g., dark institutional “midnight” and a lighter accent variant) with a focus on readability, not visual noise.
Chart‑friendly — Panels use fixed areas, session highlights avoid overlapping, and boxes are capped/pruned so the chart remains usable.
FX OSINT is for only Forex pairs, not anything else!
Hope you enjoyed and remember your Open Source Intelligence Matters 😉!

📚 CONCEPTS EXPLAINED
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
MARKET STRUCTURE:
Market structure refers to the pattern of price movements creating swing highs
and lows. Understanding structure helps identify trend direction and potential
reversal points.
SMART MONEY CONCEPTS:
These are trading techniques based on tracking institutional order flow and
understanding where large players (banks, funds, institutions) enter and exit
positions.
ORDER BLOCKS:
The last opposing candle before a strong directional move. Institutions often
leave unfilled orders in these zones, which can act as support/resistance when
price returns.
FAIR VALUE GAPS:
Areas where price moved so quickly that it left an imbalance. These gaps often
get "filled" as price returns to find equilibrium, creating trading opportunities.

SMC Structures and Multi-Timeframe FVG PYSMC Structures and Multi-Timeframe FVG Indicator
Tip: For optimal performance, adjust the number of FVGs displayed per timeframe in the settings. On high-performance devices, up to 8 FVGs per timeframe can be used without issues. If you experience slowdowns, reduce to 3 or 4 FVGs per timeframe. If the chart flashes, disable indicators one by one to identify conflicts, or try using the TradingView Mobile or Windows App for a smoother experience.
Overview
This Pine Script indicator enhances market analysis by integrating Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with Fair Value Gaps (FVG) across multiple timeframes. It identifies trend continuations (Break of Structure, BOS) and trend reversals (Change of Character, CHoCH) while highlighting liquidity zones through FVG detection. The indicator includes eight customizable Moving Average (MA) curve templates, disabled by default, to complement SMC and FVG analysis. Its originality lies in combining multi-timeframe FVG detection with SMC structure analysis, providing traders with a cohesive tool to visualize price action patterns and liquidity zones efficiently.
Features and Functionality
1. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
The indicator detects and displays bullish, bearish, and mitigated FVGs, representing liquidity zones where price inefficiencies occur. These gaps are dynamically updated based on price action:
Bullish FVG: Displayed in green when unmitigated, indicating potential upward liquidity zones.
Bearish FVG: Displayed in red when unmitigated, signaling potential downward liquidity zones.
Mitigated FVG: Shown in gray once the gap is partially filled by price action.
Fully Mitigated FVG: Automatically removed from the chart when the gap is fully filled, reducing visual clutter.
Users can customize the number of historical FVGs displayed via the settings, allowing focus on recent liquidity zones for targeted analysis.
2. SMC Structures
The indicator identifies key SMC price action patterns:
Break of Structure (BOS): Marked with gray lines, indicating trend continuation when price breaks a significant high or low.
Change of Character (CHoCH): Highlighted with yellow lines, signaling potential trend reversals when price fails to maintain the current structure.
High/Low Values: Blue lines denote the highest high and lowest low of the current structure, providing reference points for market context.
3. Multi-Timeframe FVG Analysis
A standout feature is the ability to analyze FVGs across multiple timeframes simultaneously. This allows traders to align higher-timeframe liquidity zones with lower-timeframe entries, improving trade precision. The indicator fetches FVG data from user-selected timeframes, displaying them cohesively on the chart.
4. Moving Average (MA) Templates
The indicator includes eight customizable MA curve templates in the Settings > Template section, disabled by default. These templates allow users to overlay MAs (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA) to complement SMC and FVG analysis. Each template is pre-configured with different periods and types, enabling quick adaptation to various trading strategies, such as trend confirmation or dynamic support/resistance.
How It Works
The script processes price action to detect FVGs by analyzing three-candle patterns where a gap forms between the high/low of the first and third candles. Multi-timeframe data is retrieved using Pine Script’s request.security() function, ensuring accurate FVG plotting across user-defined timeframes. BOS and CHoCH are identified by tracking swing highs and lows, with logic to differentiate trend continuation from reversals. The MA templates are computed using standard Pine Script TA functions, with user inputs controlling visibility and parameters.
How to Use
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart.
Configure Settings:
FVG Settings: Adjust the number of historical FVGs to display (default: 10). Enable/disable specific FVG types (bullish, bearish, mitigated).
Timeframe Selection: Choose up to three timeframes for FVG analysis (e.g., 1H, 4H, 1D) to align with your trading strategy.
Structure Settings: Toggle BOS (gray lines) and CHoCH (yellow lines) visibility. Adjust sensitivity for structure detection if needed.
MA Templates: Enable MA curves via the Template section. Select from eight pre-configured MA types and periods to suit your analysis.
Interpret Signals:
Use green/red FVGs for potential entry points targeting liquidity zones.
Monitor gray lines (BOS) for trend continuation and yellow lines (CHoCH) for reversal signals.
Align multi-timeframe FVGs with BOS/CHoCH for high-probability setups.
Optionally, use MA curves for trend confirmation or dynamic levels.
Clean Chart Usage: The indicator is designed to work standalone. Ensure no conflicting scripts are applied unless explicitly needed for your strategy.
Why This Indicator Is Unique
Unlike standalone FVG or SMC indicators, this script combines both concepts with multi-timeframe analysis, offering a comprehensive view of market structure and liquidity. The addition of customizable MA templates enhances flexibility, while the dynamic removal of mitigated FVGs keeps the chart clean. This mashup is purposeful, as it integrates complementary tools to streamline decision-making for traders using SMC strategies.

For optimal use, test the indicator on a demo account to familiarize yourself with its signals.
Iani SMC Sniper XAU v2.2 (Long+Short + News Countdown, v6)Iani SMC Sniper XAU (v2.2) — smart-money logic for XAUUSD.
This indicator hunts “sniper entries” using a simple SMC sequence:
Sweep → BOS → 50% FVG entry
• After London session builds its range, we wait for a liquidity sweep (price dips below London Low for longs / wicks above London High for shorts).
• A BOS confirms direction (close breaks the last swing).
• First FVG that prints after BOS gives the entry at 50% (mid-gap).
• SL anchored to the protective swing (with a small safety buffer). TP is plotted using your Risk:Reward.
News countdown (non-blocking):
The script does not auto-fetch news; you set daily times (e.g., 14:30, 16:00) and/or specific dates (“YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM”). A countdown label shows “NEWS in Xm”. Signals are not blocked—this is just a safety heads-up for prop-firm rules.
Inputs: pivot length, RR, pip size (XAU default 0.10), session filter (after London), news times (recurring & absolute), show/hide levels & labels.
Plots & labels: London High/Low (daily), Entry/SL/TP lines, BOS/Sweep/BUY/SELL markers, news badge.
Alerts: BOS Bull/Bear, BUY/SELL Entry touch, TP/SL hit, NEWS WARNING.
Notes:
• Designed for XAUUSD intraday; works on other symbols if you adjust pip size.
• Uses symbol timezone; adjust your news times for DST if needed.
• Indicator only—no orders, no backtest. Manage risk and execution in MT5/your platform.
Changelog (v2.2): Pine v6, robust time parsing, one-line logical expressions (fixed EOL errors), mirrored short logic, cleaner London H/L reset, countdown label.
Disclaimer: Educational tool, not financial advice. Past performance ≠ future results.

Advanced ICT Theory - A-ICT📊 Advanced ICT Theory (A-ICT): The Institutional Manipulation Detector
Are you tired of being the liquidity? Stop chasing shadows and start tracking the architects of price movement.
This is not another lagging indicator. This is a complete framework for viewing the market through the lens of institutional traders. Advanced ICT Theory (A-ICT) is an all-in-one, military-grade analysis engine designed to decode the complex language of "Smart Money." It automates the core tenets of Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology, moving beyond simple patterns to build a dynamic, real-time narrative of market manipulation, liquidity engineering, and institutional order flow.
AIT provides a living blueprint of the market, identifying high-probability zones, tracking structural shifts, and scoring the quality of setups with a sophisticated, multi-factor algorithm. This is your X-ray into the market's true intentions.
🔬 THE CORE ENGINE: DECODING THE THEORY & FORMULAS
A-ICT is built upon a sophisticated, multi-layered logic system that interprets price action as a story of cause and effect. It does not guess; it confirms. Here is the foundational theory that drives the engine:
1. Market Structure: The Blueprint of Trend
The script first establishes a deep understanding of the market's skeleton through multi-level pivot analysis. It uses ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow to identify significant swing points.
Internal Structure (iBOS): Minor swings that show the short-term order flow. A break of internal structure is the first whisper of a potential shift.
External Structure (eBOS): Major swing points that define the primary trend. A confirmed break of external structure is a powerful statement of trend continuation. AIT validates this with optional Volume Confirmation (volume > volumeSMA * 1.2) and Candle Confirmation to ensure the break is driven by institutional force, not just a random spike.
Change of Character (CHoCH): This is the earthquake. A CHoCH occurs when a confirmed eBOS happens against the prevailing trend (e.g., a bearish eBOS in a clear uptrend). A-ICT flags this immediately, as it is the strongest signal that the primary trend is under threat of reversal.
2. Liquidity Engineering: The Fuel of the Market
Institutions don't buy into strength; they buy into weakness. They need liquidity. A-ICT maps these liquidity pools with forensic precision:
Buyside & Sellside Liquidity (BSL/SSL): Using ta.highest and ta.lowest, AIT identifies recent highs and lows where clusters of stop-loss orders (liquidity) are resting. These are institutional targets.
Liquidity Sweeps: This is the "manipulation" part of the detector. AIT has a specific formula to detect a sweep: high > bsl and close < bsl . This signifies that institutions pushed price just high enough to trigger buy-stops before aggressively selling—a classic "stop hunt." This event dramatically increases the quality score of subsequent patterns.
3. The Element Lifecycle: From Potential to Power
This is the revolutionary heart of A-ICT. Zones are not static; they have a lifecycle. AIT tracks this with its dynamic classification engine.
Phase 1: PENDING (Yellow): The script identifies a potential zone of interest based on a specific candle formation (a "displacement"). It is marked as "Pending" because its true nature is unknown. It is a question.
Phase 2: CLASSIFICATION: After the zone is created, AIT watches what happens next. The zone's identity is defined by its actions:
ORDER BLOCK (Blue): The highest-grade element. A zone is classified as an Order Block if it directly causes a Break of Structure (BOS) . This is the footprint of institutions entering the market with enough force to validate the new trend direction.
TRAP ZONE (Orange): A zone is classified as a Trap Zone if it is directly involved in a Liquidity Sweep . This indicates the zone was used to engineer liquidity, setting a "trap" for retail traders before a reversal.
REVERSAL / S&R ZONE (Green): If a zone is not powerful enough to cause a BOS or a major sweep, but still serves as a pivot point, it's classified as a general support/resistance or reversal zone.
4. Market Inefficiencies: Gaps in the Matrix
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): AIT detects FVGs—a 3-bar pattern indicating an imbalance—with a strict formula: low > high (for a bullish FVG) and gapSize > atr14 * 0.5. This ensures only significant, volatile gaps are shown. An FVG co-located with an Order Block is a high-confluence setup.
5. Premium & Discount: The Law of Value
Institutions buy at wholesale (Discount) and sell at retail (Premium). AIT uses a pdLookback to define the current dealing range and divides it into three zones: Premium (sell zone), Discount (buy zone), and Equilibrium. An element's quality score is massively boosted if it aligns with this principle (e.g., a bullish Order Block in a Discount zone).
⚙️ THE CONTROL PANEL: A COMPLETE GUIDE TO THE INPUTS MENU
Every setting is a lever, allowing you to tune the AIT engine to your exact specifications. Master these to unlock the script's full potential.
🎯 A-ICT Detection Engine
Min Displacement Candles: Controls the sensitivity of element detection. How it works: It defines the number of subsequent candles that must be "inside" a large parent candle. Best practice: Use 2-3 for a balanced view on most timeframes. A higher number (4-5) will find only major, more significant zones, ideal for swing trading. A lower number (1) is highly sensitive, suitable for scalping.
Mitigation Method: Defines when a zone is considered "used up" or mitigated. How it works: Cross triggers as soon as price touches the zone's boundary. Close requires a candle to fully close beyond it. Best practice: Cross is more responsive for fast-moving markets. Close is more conservative and helps filter out fake-outs caused by wicks, making it safer for confirmations.
Min Element Size (ATR): A crucial noise filter. How it works: It requires a detected zone to be at least this multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). Best practice: Keep this around 0.5. If you see too many tiny, irrelevant zones, increase this value to 0.8 or 1.0. If you feel the script is missing smaller but valid zones, decrease it to 0.3.
Age Threshold & Pending Timeout: These manage visual clutter. How they work: Age Threshold removes old, mitigated elements after a set number of bars. Pending Timeout removes a "Pending" element if it isn't classified within a certain window. Best practice: The default settings are optimized. If your chart feels cluttered, reduce the Age Threshold. If pending zones disappear too quickly, increase the Pending Timeout.
Min Quality Threshold: Your primary visual filter. How it works: It hides all elements (boxes, lines, labels) that do not meet this minimum quality score (0-100). Best practice: Start with the default 30. To see only A- or B-grade setups, increase this to 60 or 70 for an exceptionally clean, high-probability view.
🏗️ Market Structure
Lookbacks (Internal, External, Major): These define the sensitivity of the trend analysis. How they work: They set the number of bars to the left and right for pivot detection. Best practice: Use smaller values for Internal (e.g., 3) to see minor structure and larger values for External (e.g., 10-15) to map the main trend. For a macro, long-term view, increase the Major Swing Lookback.
Require Volume/Candle Confirmation: Toggles for quality control on BOS/CHoCH signals. Best practice: It is highly recommended to keep these enabled. Disabling them will result in more structure signals, but many will be false alarms. They are your filter against market noise.

📊 THE INTELLIGENCE DASHBOARDS: YOUR COMMAND CENTER
The dashboards synthesize all the complex analysis into a simple, actionable intelligence briefing.
Main Dashboard (Bottom Right)
ICT Metrics & Breakdown: This is your statistical overview. Total Elements shows how much structure the script is tracking. High Quality instantly tells you if there are any A/B grade setups nearby. Unmitigated vs. Mitigated shows the balance of fresh opportunities versus resolved price action. The breakdown by Order Blocks, Trap Zones, etc., gives you a quick read on the market's recent character.
Structure & Market Context: This is your core bias. Order Flow tells you the current script-determined trend. Last BOS shows you the most recent structural event. CHoCH Active is a critical warning. HTF Bias shows if you are aligned with the higher timeframe—the checkmark (✓) for alignment is one of the most important confluence factors.
Smart Money Flow: A volume-based sentiment gauge. Net Flow shows the raw buying vs. selling pressure, while the Bias provides an interpretation (e.g., "STRONG BULLISH FLOW").
Key Guide (Large Dashboard only): A built-in legend so you never have to guess. It defines every pattern, structure type, and special level visually.
📖 Narrative Dashboard (Bottom Left)
This is the "story" of the market, updated in real-time. It's designed to build your trading thesis.
Recent Elements Table: A live list of the most recent, high-quality setups. It displays the Type , its Narrative Role (e.g., "Bullish OB caused BOS"), its raw Quality percentage, and its final Trade Score grade. This is your at-a-glance opportunity scanner.
Market Narrative Section: This is the soul of A-ICT. It combines all data points into a human-readable story:
📍 Current Phase: Tells you if you are in a high-volatility Killzone or a consolidation phase like the Asian Range.
🎯 Bias & Alignment: Your primary direction, with a clear indicator of HTF alignment or conflict.
🔗 Events: A causal sequence of recent events, like "💧 Sell-side liquidity swept →
📊 Bullish BOS → 🎯 Active Order Block".
🎯 Next Expectation: The script's logical conclusion. It provides a specific, forward-looking hypothesis, such as "📉 Pullback expected to bullish OB at 1.2345 before continuation up."
🎨 READING THE BATTLEFIELD: A VISUAL INTERPRETATION GUIDE
Every color and line is a piece of information. Learn to read them together to see the full picture.
The Core Zones (Boxes):
Blue Box (Order Block): Highest probability zone for trend continuation. Look for entries here.
Orange Box (Trap Zone): A manipulation footprint. Expect a potential reversal after price interacts with this zone.
Green Box (Reversal/S&R): A standard pivot area. A good reference point but requires more confluence.
Purple Box (FVG): A market imbalance. Acts as a magnet for price. An FVG inside an Order Block is an A+ confluence.
The Structural Lines:
Green/Red Line (eBOS): Confirms the trend direction. A break above the green line is bullish; a break below the red line is bearish.
Thick Orange Line (CHoCH): WARNING. The previous trend is now in question. The market character has changed.
Blue/Red Lines (BSL/SSL): Liquidity targets. Expect price to gravitate towards these lines. A dotted line with a checkmark (✓) means the liquidity has been "swept" or "purged."
How to Synthesize: The magic is in the confluence. A perfect setup might look like this: Price sweeps below a red SSL line , enters a green Discount Zone during the NY Killzone , and forms a blue Order Block which then causes a green eBOS . This sequence, visible at a glance, is the story of a high-probability long setup.
🔧 THE ARCHITECT'S VISION: THE DEVELOPMENT JOURNEY
A-ICT was forged from the frustration of using lagging indicators in a market that is forward-looking. Traditional tools are reactive; they tell you what happened. The vision for A-ICT was to create a proactive engine that could anticipate institutional behavior by understanding their objectives: liquidity and efficiency. The development process was centered on creating a "lifecycle" for price patterns—the idea that a zone's true meaning is only revealed by its consequence. This led to the post-breakout classification system and the narrative-building engine. It's designed not just to show you patterns, but to tell you their story.
⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER & BEST PRACTICES
Advanced ICT Theory (A-ICT) is a professional-grade analytical tool and does not provide financial advice or direct buy/sell signals. Its analysis is based on historical price action and probabilities. All forms of trading involve substantial risk. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use this tool as part of a comprehensive trading plan that includes your own analysis and a robust risk management strategy. Do not trade based on this indicator alone.

ICT Swiftedge# ICT SwiftEdge: Advanced Market Structure Trading System
**Overview**
ICT SwiftEdge is a powerful trading system built upon the foundation of ICTProTools' ICT Breakers, licensed under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 (mozilla.org). This script has been significantly enhanced by to combine market structure analysis with modern technical indicators and a sleek, AI-inspired statistics dashboard. The goal is to provide traders with a comprehensive tool for identifying high-probability trade setups, managing exits, and tracking performance in a visually intuitive way.
**Credits**
This script is a derivative work based on the original "ICT Breakers" by ICTProTools, used with permission under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. Significant enhancements, including RSI-MA signals, trend filtering, dynamic timeframe adjustments, dual exit strategies, and an AI-style statistics dashboard, were developed by . We express our gratitude to ICTProTools for their foundational work in market structure analysis.
**What It Does**
ICT SwiftEdge integrates multiple trading concepts to help traders identify and manage trades based on market structure and momentum:
- **Market Structure Analysis**: Identifies Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) patterns, which signal potential trend continuations or reversals. BOS indicates a continuation of the current trend, while MSS highlights a shift in market direction, providing key entry points.
- **RSI-MA Signals**: Generates "BUY" and "SELL" signals when BOS or MSS patterns align with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) smoothed by a Moving Average (RSI-MA). Signals are filtered to occur only when RSI-MA is above 50 (for buys) or below 50 (for sells), ensuring momentum supports the trade direction.
- **Trend Filtering**: Prevents multiple signals in the same trend, ensuring only one buy or sell signal per trend direction, reducing noise and improving trade clarity.
- **Dynamic Timeframe Adjustment**: Automatically adjusts pivot points, RSI, and MA parameters based on the selected chart timeframe (1M to 1D), optimizing performance across different market conditions.
- **Flexible Exit Strategies**: Offers two user-selectable exit methods:
- **Trailing Stop-Loss (TSL)**: Exits trades when price moves against the position by a user-defined distance (in points), locking in profits or limiting losses.
- **RSI-MA Exit**: Exits trades when RSI-MA crosses the 50 level, signaling a potential loss of momentum.
- Users can enable either or both strategies, providing flexibility to adapt to different trading styles.
- **AI-Style Statistics Dashboard**: Displays real-time trade performance metrics in a futuristic, neon-colored interface, including total trades, wins, losses, win/loss ratio, and win percentage. This helps traders evaluate the system's effectiveness without external tools.
**Why This Combination?**
The integration of these components creates a synergistic trading system:
- **BOS/MSS and RSI-MA**: Combining market structure breaks with RSI-MA ensures entries are based on both price action (structure) and momentum (RSI-MA), increasing the likelihood of high-probability trades.
- **Trend Filtering**: By limiting signals to one per trend, the system avoids overtrading and focuses on significant market moves.
- **Dynamic Adjustments**: Timeframe-specific parameters make the system versatile, suitable for scalping (1M, 5M) or swing trading (4H, 1D).
- **Dual Exit Strategies**: TSL protects profits during trending markets, while RSI-MA exits are ideal for range-bound or reversing markets, catering to diverse market conditions.
- **Statistics Dashboard**: Provides immediate feedback on trade performance, enabling data-driven decision-making without manual tracking.
This combination balances technical precision with user-friendly visuals, making it accessible to both novice and experienced traders.
**How to Use**
1. **Add to Chart**: Apply the script to any TradingView chart.
2. **Configure Settings**:
- **Chart Timeframe**: Select your chart's timeframe (1M to 1D) to optimize parameters.
- **Structure Timeframe**: Choose a timeframe for market structure analysis (leave blank for chart timeframe).
- **Exit Strategy**: Enable Trailing Stop-Loss (`useTslExit`), RSI-MA Exit (`useRsiMaExit`), or both. Adjust `tslPoints` for TSL distance.
- **Show Signals/Labels**: Toggle `showSignals` and `showExit` to display "BUY", "SELL", and "EXIT" labels.
- **Dashboard**: Enable `showDashboard` to view trade statistics. Customize colors with `dashboardBgColor` and `dashboardTextColor`.
3. **Trading**:
- Look for "BUY" or "SELL" labels to enter trades when BOS/MSS aligns with RSI-MA.
- Exit trades at "EXIT" labels based on your chosen strategy.
- Monitor the statistics dashboard to track performance (total trades, win/loss ratio, win percentage).
4. **Alerts**: Set up alerts for BOS, MSS, buy, sell, or exit signals using the provided alert conditions.

Smart Money Concepts (SMC) [LuxAlgo]This all-in-one indicator displays real-time market structure (internal & swing BOS / CHoCH), order blocks, premium & discount zones, equal highs & lows, and much more...allowing traders to automatically mark up their charts with widely used price action methodologies. Following the release of our Fair Value Gap script, we received numerous requests from our community to release more features in the same category.
"Smart Money Concepts" (SMC) is a fairly new yet widely used term amongst price action traders looking to more accurately navigate liquidity & find more optimal points of interest in the market. Trying to determine where institutional market participants have orders placed (buy or sell side liquidity) can be a very reasonable approach to finding more practical entries & exits based on price action.
The indicator includes alerts for the presence of swing structures and many other relevant conditions.
Features
This indicator includes many features relevant to SMC, these are highlighted below:
Full internal & swing market structure labeling in real-time
Break of Structure (BOS)
Change of Character (CHoCH)
Order Blocks (bullish & bearish)
Equal Highs & Lows
Fair Value Gap Detection
Previous Highs & Lows
Premium & Discount Zones as a range
Options to style the indicator to more easily display these concepts
Settings
Mode: Allows the user to select Historical (default) or Present, which displays only recent data on the chart.
Style: Allows the user to select different styling for the entire indicator between Colored (default) and Monochrome.
Color Candles: Plots candles based on the internal & swing structures from within the indicator on the chart.
Internal Structure: Displays the internal structure labels & dashed lines to represent them. (BOS & CHoCH).
Confluence Filter: Filter non-significant internal structure breakouts.
Swing Structure: Displays the swing structure labels & solid lines on the chart (larger BOS & CHoCH labels).
Swing Points: Displays swing points labels on chart such as HH, HL, LH, LL.
Internal Order Blocks: Enables Internal Order Blocks & allows the user to select how many most recent Internal Order Blocks appear on the chart.
Swing Order Blocks: Enables Swing Order Blocks & allows the user to select how many most recent Swing Order Blocks appear on the chart.
Equal Highs & Lows: Displays EQH/EQL labels on chart for detecting equal highs & lows.
Bars Confirmation: Allows the user to select how many bars are needed to confirm an EQH/EQL symbol on chart.
Fair Value Gaps: Displays boxes to highlight imbalance areas on the chart.
Auto Threshold: Filter out non-significant fair value gaps.
Timeframe: Allows the user to select the timeframe for the Fair Value Gap detection.
Extend FVG: Allows the user to choose how many bars to extend the Fair Value Gap boxes on the chart.
Highs & Lows MTF: Allows the user to display previous highs & lows from daily, weekly, & monthly timeframes as significant levels.
Premium/Discount Zones: Allows the user to display Premium, Discount, and Equilibrium zones on the chart
Usage
Users can see automatic CHoCH and BOS labels to highlight breakouts of market structure, which allows to determine the market trend. In the chart below we can see the internal structure which displays more frequent labels within larger structures. We can also see equal highs & lows (EQH/EQL) labels plotted alongside the internal structure to frequently give indications of potential reversals.
In the chart below we can see the swing market structure labels. These are also labeled as BOS and CHoCH but with a solid line & larger text to show larger market structure breakouts & trend reversals. Users can be mindful of these larger structure labels while trading internal structures as displayed in the previous chart.
Order blocks highlight areas where institutional market participants open positions, one can use order blocks to determine confirmation entries or potential targets as we can expect there is a large amount of liquidity at these order blocks. In the chart below we can see 2 potential trade setups with confirmation entries. The path outlined in red would be a potential short entry targeting the blue order block below, and the path outlined in green would be a potential long entry, targeting the red order blocks above.
As we can see in the chart below, the bullish confirmation entry played out in this scenario with the green path outlined in hindsight. As price breaks though the order blocks above, the indicator will consider them mitigated causing them to disappear, and as per the logic of these order blocks they will always display 5 (by default) on the chart so we can now see more actionable levels.
The Smart Money Concepts indicator has many other features and here we can see how they can also help a user find potential levels for price action trading. In the screenshot below we can see a trade setup using the Previous Monthly High, Strong High, and a Swing Order Block as a stop loss. Accompanied by the Premium from the Discount/Premium zones feature being used as a potential entry. A potential take profit level for this trade setup that a user could easily identify would be the 50% mark labeled with the Fair Value Gap & the Equilibrium all displayed automatically by the indicator.
Conclusion
This indicator highlights all relevant components of Smart Money Concepts which can be a very useful interpretation of market structure, liquidity, & more simply put, price action. The term was coined & popularized primarily within the forex community & by ICT while making its way to become a part of many traders' analysis. These concepts, with or without this indicator do not guarantee a trader to be trading within the presence of institutional or "bank-level" liquidity, there is no supporting data regarding the validity of these teachings.

短简介 Short Description(放在最上面)
中文:
PA System 是一套以 AL Brooks 价格行为为核心的策略(Strategy),将 结构(HH/HL/LH/LL)→ 回调(H1/L1)→ 二次入场(H2/L2 微平台突破) 串成完整可回测流程,并可选叠加 BoS/CHoCH 结构突破过滤 与 Liquidity Sweep(扫流动性)确认。内置风险管理:定风险仓位、部分止盈、保本、移动止损、时间止损、冷却期。
English:
PA System is an AL Brooks–inspired Price Action strategy that chains Market Structure (HH/HL/LH/LL) → Pullback (H1/L1) → Second Entry (H2/L2 via Micro Range Breakout) into a complete backtestable workflow, with optional BoS/CHoCH structure-break filtering and Liquidity Sweep confirmation. Built-in risk management includes risk-based sizing, partial exits, breakeven, trailing stops, time stop, and cooldown.
⸻
1) 核心理念 Core Idea
中文:
这不是“指标堆叠”,而是一条清晰的价格行为决策链:
结构确认 → 回调出现 → 小平台突破(二次入场)→ 风控出场。
策略把 Brooks 常见的“二次入场”思路程序化,同时用可选的结构突破与扫流动性模块提升信号质量、减少震荡误入。
English:
This is not an “indicator soup.” It’s a clear price-action decision chain:
Confirmed structure → Pullback → Micro-range breakout (second entry) → Risk-managed exits.
The system programmatically implements the Brooks-style “second entry” concept, and optionally adds structure-break and liquidity-sweep context to reduce chop and improve trade quality.
⸻
2) 主要模块 Main Modules
A. 结构识别 Market Structure (HH/HL/LH/LL)
中文:
使用 pivot 摆动点确认结构,标记 HH/HL/LH/LL,并可显示最近一组摆动水平线,方便对照结构位置。
English:
Uses confirmed pivot swings to label HH/HL/LH/LL and optionally plots the most recent swing levels for clean structure context.
B. 状态机 Market Regime (State Machine + “Always In”)
中文:
基于趋势K强度、EMA关系与波动范围,识别市场环境(Breakout/Channel/Range)以及 Always-In 方向,用于过滤不合适的交易环境。
English:
A lightweight regime engine detects Breakout/Channel/Range and an “Always In” directional bias using momentum and EMA/range context to avoid low-quality conditions.
C. 二次入场 Second Entry Engine (H1→H2 / L1→L2)
中文:
• H1/L1:回调到结构附近并出现反转迹象
• H2/L2:在 H1/L1 后等待最小 bars,然后触发 Micro Range Breakout(小平台突破)并要求信号K收盘强度达标
这一段是策略的“主发动机”。
English:
• H1/L1: Pullback into structure with reversal intent
• H2/L2: After a minimum wait, triggers on Micro Range Breakout plus a configurable close-strength filter

ChronoPulse MS-MACD Resonance StrategyChronoPulse MS-MACD Resonance Strategy
A systematic trading strategy that combines higher-timeframe market structure analysis with dual MACD momentum confirmation, ATR-based risk management, and real-time quality assurance monitoring.
Core Principles
The strategy operates on the principle of multi-timeframe confluence, requiring agreement between:
Market structure breaks (CHOCH/BOS) on a higher timeframe
Dual MACD momentum confirmation (classic and crypto-tuned profiles)
Trend alignment via directional EMAs
Volatility and volume filters
Quality score composite threshold
Strategy Components
Market Structure Engine : Detects Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH) events using confirmed pivots on a configurable higher timeframe. Default structure timeframe is 240 minutes (4H).
Dual MACD Fusion : Requires agreement between two MACD configurations:
Classic MACD: 12/26/9 (default)
Fusion MACD: 8/21/5 (default, optimized for crypto volatility)
Both must agree on direction before trade execution. This can be disabled to use single MACD confirmation.
Trend Alignment : Uses two EMAs for directional bias:
Directional EMA: 55 periods (default)
Execution Trend Guide: 34 periods (default)
Both must align with trade direction.
ATR Risk Management : All risk parameters are expressed in ATR multiples:
Stop Loss: 1.5 × ATR (default)
Take Profit: 3.0 × ATR (default)
Trail Activation: 1.0 × ATR profit required (default)
Trail Distance: 1.5 × ATR behind price (default)
Volume Surge Filter : Optional gate requiring current volume to exceed a multiple of the volume SMA. Default threshold is 1.4× the 20-period volume SMA.
Quality Score Gate : Composite score (0-1) combining:
Structure alignment (0.0-1.0)
Momentum strength (0.0-1.0)
Trend alignment (0.0-1.0)
ATR volatility score (0.0-1.0)
Volume intensity (0.0-1.0)
Default threshold: 0.62. Trades only execute when quality score exceeds this threshold.
Execution Discipline : Trade budgeting system:
Maximum trades per session: 6 (default)
Cooldown bars between entries: 5 (default)
Quality Assurance Console : Real-time monitoring panel displaying:
Structure status (pass/fail)
Momentum confirmation (pass/fail)
Volatility readiness (pass/fail)
Quality score (pass/fail)
Discipline compliance (pass/fail)
Performance metrics (win rate, profit factor)
Net PnL
Certification requires: Win Rate ≥ 40%, Profit Factor ≥ 1.4, Minimum 25 closed trades, and positive net profit.
Integrity Suite : Optional validation panel that audits:
Configuration sanity checks
ATR data readiness
EMA hierarchy validity
Performance realism checks

Risk Management
Stop loss and take profit are set immediately on entry
Trailing stop activates after 1.0 ATR of profit
Trailing stop maintains 1.5 ATR distance behind highest profit point
Position sizing uses 2% of equity per trade (default)
No pyramiding (single position per direction)
Limitations and Considerations
The strategy requires sufficient historical data for higher timeframe structure analysis
Quality gate may filter out many potential trades, reducing trade frequency
Performance metrics are based on historical backtesting and do not guarantee future results
Commission and slippage assumptions (0.015% + 2 ticks) may vary by broker
The strategy is optimized for trending markets with clear structure breaks
Choppy or ranging markets may produce false signals
Crypto markets may require different parameter tuning than traditional assets
Optimization Notes
The strategy includes several parameters that can be tuned for different market conditions:
Quality Threshold : Lower values (0.50-0.60) allow more trades but may reduce average quality. Higher values (0.70+) are more selective but may miss opportunities.
Structure Timeframe : Use 240 (4H) for intraday trading, Daily for swing trading, Weekly for position trading
Volume Gate : Disable for low-liquidity pairs or when volume data is unreliable
Dual MACD Fusion : Disable for mean-reverting markets where single MACD may be more responsive
Trade Discipline : Adjust max trades and cooldown based on your risk tolerance and market volatility
Non-Repainting Guarantee
All higher timeframe data requests use lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off to prevent repainting. Pivot detection waits for full confirmation before registering structure breaks. All visual elements (tables, labels) update only on closed bars.
Alerts
Three alert conditions are available:
ChronoPulse Long Setup : Fires when all long entry conditions are met
ChronoPulse Short Setup : Fires when all short entry conditions are met
ChronoPulse QA Certification : Fires when Quality Assurance console reaches CERTIFIED status
Configure alerts with "Once Per Bar Close" delivery to match the non-repainting design.
Visual Elements
Structure Labels : CHOCH↑, CHOCH↓, BOS↑, BOS↓ markers on structure breaks
Directional EMA : Orange line showing trend bias
Trailing Stop Lines : Green (long) and red (short) trailing stop levels
Dashboard Panel : Real-time status display (structure, MACD, ATR, quality, PnL)
QA Console : Quality assurance monitoring panel
Integrity Suite Panel : Optional validation status display
Recommended Usage
Forward test with paper trading before live deployment
Monitor the QA console until it reaches CERTIFIED status
Adjust parameters based on your specific market and timeframe
Respect the trade discipline limits to avoid over-trading
Review quality scores and adjust threshold if needed
Use appropriate commission and slippage settings for your broker
Technical Implementation
The strategy uses Pine Script v6 with the following key features:
Multi-timeframe data requests with lookahead protection
Confirmed pivot detection for structure analysis
Dynamic trailing stop management
Real-time quality score calculation
Trade budgeting and cooldown enforcement
Comprehensive dashboard and monitoring panels
All source code is open and available for review and modification.

🟡 GOLD 4H HUD v8.9 — Loose ICT OB + Strong/Weak + FVG/HVN/LVNGOLD 4H HUD v8.9 is a clean, structured Smart Money Concepts (SMC)–based analysis tool designed exclusively for XAUUSD on the 4-hour timeframe.
It focuses on the three most important elements for institutional orderflow analysis:
✔ Loose ICT Order Blocks (Demand/Supply)
✔ Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
✔ Volume Profile Zones (HVN/LVN/POC)
The script builds a professional-style HUD that displays the key institutional regions and structural levels that matter most for gold traders.
📌 Key Features
1 — Market Structure Engine (HH/HL & BOS)
The indicator detects:
Minor swing Highs and Lows
Last confirmed HH / HL levels
Break of Structure (BOS) for directional bias
EMA-200 trend filter (UP / DOWN / NEUTRAL)
This gives traders a clean structural read without clutter or noise.
2 — Loose FVG Engine (Tolerance-Based ICT Gaps)
A soft-threshold FVG engine detects “loose” Fair Value Gaps using a 0.1% price tolerance.
This method ensures:
Fewer missed imbalances
Cleaner OB/FVG alignment
Higher accuracy on 4H gold displacement legs
FVGs automatically shift to the right side of the chart for clean visualization.
3 — Order Block Engine (Demand/Supply + Strong/Weak Classification)
A simplified ICT-style OB engine scans the past few candles whenever BOS is detected.
It identifies:
Demand OB during bullish BOS
Supply OB during bearish BOS
Strong OB if fully nested inside an active FVG
Weak OB otherwise
OB boxes include:
Clear color coding (strong vs. weak)
Price range labels inside each box
Automatic right-shift for visual clarity
4 — Volume Profile Engine (POC / HVN / LVN / VAH / VAL)
Based on a rolling window (default 120 bars), the script builds a lightweight volume distribution.
It displays:
POC (Point of Control)
HVN (High Volume Node)
LVN (Low Volume Node)
Value Area High / Low
HVN/LVN zones are shown as right-shifted colored boxes with price labels.
These zones help identify:
Institutional accumulation
Low-liquidity rejection points
Areas where price tends to react strongly
5 — Support / Resistance Mapping
The script automatically generates:
OB-based support/resistance
Swing-high/swing-low levels
HVN/LVN structural levels
These are displayed in the HUD for fast reference.
6 — Professional HUD Panel
A compact, easy-to-read HUD summarizes:
Trend direction
Latest HH/HL
OB ranges (Strong/Weak)
HVN/LVN price zones
POC
Multi-layer support & resistance
This turns the script into a fully functional analysis dashboard.
📌 What This Indicator Is NOT
To avoid misunderstanding:
It does not take entries or generate buy/sell signals
It does not auto-detect CHOCH, MSS, SMT, or sweeps
It is not a trading bot
This tool is designed as an institutional-style map and analysis HUD, not a strategy.
📌 Best Use Case
This indicator is ideal for traders who want to:
Read institutional structure on XAUUSD
Identify clean Demand/Supply zones
Visualize FVG/OB/HVN interactions
Track high-value liquidity levels
Build directional bias on 4H before dropping to execution timeframes
⚠ Important Note
This tool is designed exclusively for the 4H timeframe.
Using it on lower timeframes will display a warning.
Market Structure Trailing Stop MTF [Inspired by LuxAlgo]# Market Structure Trailing Stop MTF
**OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT**
*208k+ views on original · Modified for MTF Support*
This indicator is a direct adaptation of the renowned **Market Structure Trailing Stop** by **LuxAlgo** (original script: [Market Structure Trailing Stop ]()). The core logic remains untouched, providing dynamic trailing stops based on market structure breaks (CHoCH/BOS). The **only modification** is the addition of **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) support**, allowing users to apply the trailing stops and structures from **higher timeframes (HTF)** directly on their current chart. This enhances usability for traders analyzing cross-timeframe confluence without switching charts.
**Special thanks to LuxAlgo** for releasing this powerful open-source tool under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. Your contributions to the TradingView community have inspired countless traders—grateful for the solid foundation!
## 🔶 How the Script Works: A Deep Dive
At its heart, this indicator detects **market structure shifts** (bullish or bearish breaks of swing highs/lows) and uses them to generate **adaptive trailing stops**. These stops trail the price while protecting profits and acting as dynamic support/resistance levels. The MTF enhancement pulls this logic from user-specified higher timeframes, overlaying HTF structures and stops on the lower timeframe chart for seamless multi-timeframe analysis.
### Core Logic (Unchanged from LuxAlgo's Original)
1. **Pivot Detection**:
- Uses `ta.pivothigh()` and `ta.pivotlow()` with a user-defined lookback (`length`) to identify swing highs (PH) and lows (PL).
- Coordinates (price `y` and bar index/time `x`) are stored in persistent variables (`var`) for tracking recent pivots.
2. **Market Structure Detection**:
- **Bullish Structure (BOS/CHoCH)**: Triggers when `close > recent PH` (break above swing high).
- If `resetOn = 'CHoCH'`, resets only on major shifts (Change of Character); otherwise, on all breaks.
- Sets trend state `os = 1` (bullish) and highlights the break with a horizontal line (dashed for CHoCH, dotted for BOS).
- Initializes trailing stop at the local minimum (lowest low since the pivot) using a backward loop: `btm = math.min(low , btm)`.
- **Bearish Structure**: Triggers when `close < recent PL`, mirroring the bullish logic (`os = -1`, local maximum for stop).
- Structure state `ms` tracks the break type (1 for bull, -1 for bear, 0 neutral), resetting based on user settings.
3. **Trailing Stop Calculation**:
- Tracks **trailing max/min**:
- On new bull structure: Reset `max = close`.
- On new bear: Reset `min = close`.
- Otherwise: `max = math.max(close, max)` / `min = math.min(close, min)`.
- **Stop Adjustment** (the "trailing" magic):
- On fresh structure: `ts = btm` (bull) or `top` (bear).
- In ongoing trend: Increment/decrement by a percentage of the max/min change:
- Bull: `ts += (max - max ) * (incr / 100)`
- Bear: `ts += (min - min ) * (incr / 100)`
- This creates a **ratcheting effect**: Stops move favorably with the trend but never against it, converging toward price at a controlled rate.
- **Visuals**:
- Plots `ts` line colored by trend (teal for bull, red for bear).
- Fills area between `close` and `ts` (orange on retracements).
- Draws structure lines from pivot to break point.
4. **Edge Cases**:
- Variables like `ph_cross`/`pl_cross` prevent multiple triggers on the same pivot.
- Neutral state (`ms = 0`) preserves prior `max/min` until a new structure.
### MTF Enhancement (Our Addition)
- **request.security() Integration**:
- Wraps the entire core function `f()` in a security call for each timeframe (`tf1`, `tf2`).
- Returns HTF values (e.g., `ts1`, `os1`, structure times/prices) to the chart's context.
- Uses `lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off` for accurate historical repainting-free data.
- Structures are drawn using `xloc.bar_time` to align HTF lines precisely on the LTF chart.
- **Multi-Output Handling**:
- Separate plots/fills/lines for each TF (e.g., `plot_ts1`, `plot_ts2`).
- Colors and toggles per TF to distinguish HTF1 (e.g., teal/red) from HTF2 (e.g., blue/maroon).
- **Benefits**: Spot HTF bias on LTF entries, e.g., enter longs only if both TF1 (1H) and TF2 (4H) show bullish `os=1`.
This keeps the script lightweight—**no repainting, max 500 lines**, and fully compatible with LuxAlgo's original behavior when TFs are set to the chart's timeframe.
## 🔶 SETTINGS
### Core Parameters
- **Pivot Lookback** (`length = 14`): Bars left/right for pivot detection. Higher = smoother structures, fewer signals; lower = more noise.
- **Increment Factor %** (`incr = 100`): Speed of stop convergence (0-∞). 100% = full ratchet (mirrors max/min exactly); <100% = slower trail, reduces whipsaws.
- **Reset Stop On** (`'CHoCH'`): `'CHoCH'` = Reset only on major reversals (dashed lines); `'All'` = Reset on every BOS/CHoCH (tighter stops).
### MTF Support
- **Timeframe 1** (`tf1 = ""`): HTF for first set (e.g., "1H"). Empty = current chart.
- **Timeframe 2** (`tf2 = ""`): Second HTF (e.g., "4H"). Enables dual confluence.
### Display Toggles
- **Show Structures** (`true`): Draws horizontal lines for breaks (per TF colors).
- **Show Trailing Stop TF1/TF2** (`true`): Plots the stop line.
- **Show Fill TF1/TF2** (`true`): Area fill between close and stop.
### Candle Coloring (Optional)
- **Color Candles** (`false`): Enables custom `plotcandle` for body/wick/border.
- **Candle Color Based On TF** (`"None"`): `"TF1"`, `"TF2"`, or none. Colors bull trend green, bear red.
- **Candle Colors**: Separate inputs for bull/bear body, wick, border (e.g., solid green body, transparent wick).
### Alerts
- **Enable MS Break Alerts** (`false`): Notifies on structure breaks (bull/bear per TF) **only on bar close** (`barstate.isconfirmed` + `alert.freq_once_per_bar_close`).
- **Enable Stop Hit Alerts** (`false`): Triggers on stop breaches (long/short per TF), using `ta.crossunder/crossover`.
### Colors
- **TF1 Colors**: Bullish (teal), Bearish (red), Retracement (orange).
- **TF2 Colors**: Bullish (blue), Bearish (maroon), Retracement (orange).
- **Area Transparency** (`80`): Fill opacity (0-100).
## 🔶 USAGE
Trailing stops shine in **trend-following strategies**:
- **Entries**: Use structure breaks as signals (e.g., long on bullish BOS from HTF1).
- **Exits**: Trail stops for profit-locking; alert on hits for automation.
- **Confluence**: Overlay HTF1 (e.g., 1H) for bias, HTF2 (e.g., Daily) for major levels—enter LTF only on alignment.
- **Risk Management**: Lower `incr` avoids early stops in chop; reset on `'All'` for aggressive trailing.

*Colored based on TF1 trend: Green bodies on bull `os=1`.*
Pro Tip: Test on demo—pair with LuxAlgo's other tools like Smart Money Concepts for full structure ecosystem.
## 🔶 DETAILS: Mathematical Breakdown
On bullish break:
- Local min: `btm = ta.lowest(n - ph_x)` (optimized loop equivalent).
- Stop init: `ts = btm`.
- Update: `Δmax = max - max `, `ts_new = ts + Δmax * (incr/100)`.
Bearish mirrors with `Δmin` (negative, so decrements `ts`).
In MTF: HTF `time` aligns lines via `line.new(htf_time, level, current_time, level, xloc.bar_time)`.
No logs/math libs needed—pure Pine v5 efficiency.
