Market Structure & Liquidity: CHoCHs+Nested Pivots+FVGs+Sweeps//Purpose:
This indicator combines several tools to help traders track and interpret price action/market structure; It can be divided into 4 parts;
1. CHoCHs, 2. Nested Pivot highs & lows, 3. Grade sweeps, 4. FVGs.
This gives the trader a toolkit for determining market structure and shifts in market structure to help determine a bull or bear bias, whether it be short-term, med-term or long-term.
This indicator also helps traders in determining liquidity targets: wether they be voids/gaps (FVGS) or old highs/lows+ typical sweep distances.
Finally, the incorporation of HTF CHoCH levels printing on your LTF chart helps keep the bigger picture in mind and tells traders at a glance if they're above of below Custom HTF CHoCH up or CHoCH down (these HTF CHoCHs can be anything from Hourly up to Monthly).
//Nomenclature:
CHoCH = Change of Character
STH/STL = short-term high or low
MTH/MTL = medium-term high or low
LTH/LTL = long-term high or low
FVG = Fair value gap
CE = consequent encroachement (the midline of a FVG)
~~~ The Four components of this indicator ~~~
1. CHoCHs:
•Best demonstrated in the below charts. This was a method taught to me by @Icecold_crypto. Once a 3 bar fractal pivot gets broken, we count backwards the consecutive higher lows or lower highs, then identify the CHoCH as the opposite end of the candle which ended the consecutive backwards count. This CHoCH (UP or DOWN) then becomes a level to watch, if price passes through it in earnest a trader would consider shifting their bias as market structure is deemed to have shifted.
•HTF CHoCHs: Option to print Higher time frame chochs (default on) of user input HTF. This prints only the last UP choch and only the last DOWN choch from the input HTF. Solid line by default so as to distinguish from local/chart-time CHoCHs. Can be any Higher timeframe you like.
•Show on table: toggle on show table(above/below) option to show in table cells (top right): is price above the latest HTF UP choch, or is price below HTF DOWN choch (or is it sat between the two, in a state of 'uncertainty').
•Most recent CHoCHs which have not been met by price will extend 10 bars into the future.
• USER INPUTS: overall setting: SHOW CHOCHS | Set bars lookback number to limit historical Chochs. Set Live CHoCHs number to control the number of active recent chochs unmet by price. Toggle shrink chochs once hit to declutter chart and minimize old chochs to their origin bars. Set Multi-timeframe color override : to make Color choices auto-set to your preference color for each of 1m, 5m, 15m, H, 4H, D, W, M (where up and down are same color, but 'up' icon for up chochs and down icon for down chochs remain printing as normal)
2. Nested Pivot Highs & Lows; aka 'Pivot Highs & Lows (ST/MT/LT)'
•Based on a seperate, longer lookback/lookforward pivot calculation. Identifies Pivot highs and lows with a 'spikeyness' filter (filtering out weak/rounded/unimpressive Pivot highs/lows)
•by 'nested' I mean that the pivot highs are graded based on whether a pivot high sits between two lower pivot highs or vice versa.
--for example: STH = normal pivot. MTH is pivot high with a lower STH on either side. LTH is a pivot high with a lower MTH on either side. Same applies to pivot lows (STL/MTL/LTL)
•This is a useful way to measure the significance of a high or low. Both in terms of how much it might be typically swept by (see later) and what it would imply for HTF bias were we to break through it in earnest (more than just a sweep).
• USER INPUTS: overall setting: show pivot highs & lows | Bars lookback (historical pivots to show) | Pivots: lookback/lookforward length (determines the scale of your pivot highs/lows) | toggle on/off Apply 'Spikeyness' filter (filters out smooth/unimpressive pivot highs/lows). Set Spikeyness index (determines the strength of this filter if turned on) | Individually toggle on each of STH, MTH, LTH, STL, MTL, LTL along with their label text type , and size . Toggle on/off line for each of these Pivot highs/lows. | Set label spacer (atr multiples above / below) | set line style and line width
3. Grade Sweeps:
•These are directly related to the nested pivots described above. Most assets will have a typical sweep distance. I've added some of my expected sweeps for various assets in the indicator tooltips.
--i.e. Eur/Usd 10-20-30 pips is a typical 'grade' sweep. S&P HKEX:5 - HKEX:10 is a typical grade sweep.
•Each of the ST/MT/LT pivot highs and lows have optional user defined grade sweep boxes which paint above until filled (or user option for historical filled boxes to remain).
•Numbers entered into sweep input boxes are auto converted into appropriate units (i.e. pips for FX, $ or 'handles' for indices, $ for Crypto. Very low $ units can be input for low unit value crypto altcoins.
• USER INPUTS: overall setting: Show sweep boxes | individually select colors of each of STH, MTH, LTH, STL, MTL, LTL sweep boxes. | Set Grade sweep ($/pips) number for each of ST, MT, LT. This auto converts between pips and $ (i.e. FX vs Indices/Crypto). Can be a float as small or large as you like ($0.000001 to HKEX:1000 ). | Set box text position (horizontal & vertical) and size , and color . | Set Box width (bars) (for non extended/ non-auto-terminating at price boxes). | toggle on/off Extend boxes/lines right . | Toggle on/off Shrink Grade sweeps on fill (they will disappear in realtime when filled/passed through)
4. FVGs:
•Fair Value gaps. Represent 'naked' candle bodies where the wicks to either side do not meet, forming a 'gap' of sorts which has a tendency to fill, or at least to fill to midline (CE).
•These are ICT concepts. 'UP' FVGS are known as BISIs (Buyside imbalance, sellside inefficiency); 'DOWN' FVGs are known as SIBIs (Sellside imbalance, buyside inefficiency).
• USER INPUTS: overall setting: show FVGs | Bars lookback (history). | Choose to display: 'UP' FVGs (BISI) and/or 'DOWN FVGs (SIBI) . Choose to display the midline: CE , the color and the line style . Choose threshold: use CE (as opposed to Full Fill) |toggle on/off Shrink FVG on fill (CE hit or Full fill) (declutter chart/see backtesting history)
////••Alerts (general notes & cautionary notes)::
•Alerts are optional for most of the levels printed by this indicator. Set them via the three dots on indicator status line.
•Due to dynamic repainting of levels, alerts should be used with caution. Best use these alerts either for Higher time frame levels, or when closely monitoring price.
--E.g. You may set an alert for down-fill of the latest FVG below; but price will keep marching up; form a newer/higher FVG, and the alert will trigger on THAT FVG being down-filled (not the original)
•Available Alerts:
-FVG(BISI) cross above threshold(CE or full-fill; user choice). Same with FVG(SIBI).
-HTF last CHoCH down, cross below | HTF last CHoCH up, cross above.
-last CHoCH down, cross below | last CHoCH up, cross above.
-LTH cross above, MTH cross above, STH cross above | LTL cross below, MTL cross below, STL cross below.
////••Formatting (general)::
•all table text color is set from the 'Pivot highs & Lows (ST, MT, LT)' section (for those of you who prefer black backgrounds).
•User choice of Line-style, line color, line width. Same with Boxes. Icon choice for chochs. Char or label text choices for ST/MT/LT pivot highs & lows.
////••User Inputs (general):
•Each of the 4 components of this indicator can be easily toggled on/off independently.
•Quite a lot of options and toggle boxes, as described in full above. Please take your time and read through all the tooltips (hover over '!' icon) to get an idea of formatting options.
•Several Lookback periods defined in bars to control how much history is shown for each of the 4 components of this indicator.
•'Shrink on fill' settings on FVGs and CHoCHs: Basically a way to declutter chart; toggle on/off depending on if you're backtesting or reading live price action.
•Table Display: applies to ST/MT/LT pivot highs and to HTF CHoCHs; Toggle table on or off (in part or in full)
////••Credits:
•Credit to ICT (Inner Circle Trader) for some of the concepts used in this indicator (FVGS & CEs; Grade sweeps).
•Credit to @Icecold_crypto for the specific and novel concept of identifying CHoCHs in a simple, objective and effective manner (as demonstrated in the 1st chart below).

ค้นหาในสคริปต์สำหรับ "fair value gap"
FVG & OB [odnac]This indicator is a sophisticated tool designed for Smart Money Concepts (SMC) traders. It automates the detection of two critical institutional footprints: Order Blocks (OB) and Fair Value Gaps (FVG), with a focus on candle momentum and mitigation tracking.
Key Features
1. Advanced Momentum Filtering (3 Versions)
Unlike basic indicators, this script uses three different mathematical approaches to ensure the middle candle represents a "strong" move:
V1 (Body Focus): Compares the bodies of the surrounding candles to the middle candle.
V2 (Hybrid): Uses a mix of candle ranges and bodies to identify expansion.
V3 (Range Focus): The most aggressive filter; it ensures the total range of the middle candle dwarfs the surrounding candles.
2. Automatic Mitigation Tracking
The indicator doesn't just draw static boxes. It tracks price action in real-time:
Dynamic Extension: Boxes extend to the right automatically as long as price has not returned to "test" or "fill" the zone.
Smart Clean-up: Once the price touches the zone (Mitigation), the box stops extending or is removed. This keeps your chart clean and focused only on "fresh" (unmitigated) levels.
3. Smart Money Concept Integration
Order Blocks (White Boxes): Identifies where institutional buying or selling occurred before a strong move.
Fair Value Gaps (Yellow Boxes): Highlights price imbalances where the market moved too fast, leaving a gap that often acts as a magnet for future price action.
Technical Logic Breakdown
Detection Logic
The script looks at a 3-candle sequence:
Candle (The Origin): Defines the boundary of the OB or FVG.
Candle (The Expansion): Must be a "Strong Candle" based on your selected setting (V1, V2, or V3).
Candle (The Confirmation): Ensures that the "Tail Gap" condition is met (the wick of Candle 2 and Candle 0 do not touch).
Box Management
The script uses Pine Script Arrays to manage up to 500 boxes. It constantly loops through active boxes to check:
Time Limit: If a box exceeds the max_bars_extend limit, it is removed to save memory.
Price Touch: If low or high enters the box coordinates, the zone is considered "mitigated" and the extension stops.
Order Blocks & ImbalanceThis indicator automatically identifies and plots Order Blocks (also known as Fair Value Gaps or Imbalances) based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT methodology. It detects significant price inefficiencies (gaps between candles) that often act as institutional supply or demand zones.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
1. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
The indicator identifies classic 3-candle imbalances:
- Bullish Order Block (Demand): When the low of the current candle is significantly below the high of the candle two bars ago (low - high ).
- Bearish Order Block (Supply): When the high of the current candle is significantly above the low of the candle two bars ago (low - high ).
A minimum size threshold is enforced using ATR(14) × user-defined multiplier (default 0.5) to filter out minor gaps and focus on meaningful inefficiencies.
2. Zone Creation
- Bullish zones are created at the candle two bars ago (the "origin" candle where inefficiency occurred).
- Bearish zones use the same origin candle.
- Zone boundaries:
Top = high of origin candle
Bottom = low of origin candle
This captures the full range where price moved aggressively, leaving an imbalance that institutions may later revisit.
3. Mitigation Detection
Zones can be mitigated in two ways (user-selectable):
- "Close": Zone is considered touched only if the close price enters the zone.
- "Wick": Zone is touched if any wick (high/low) enters the zone (more sensitive).
When mitigated:
- Background becomes more transparent
- Border turns dotted
- Label changes to "Mitigated"
Broken zones (price fully closes beyond the opposite side) are automatically deleted.
4. Zone Lifecycle Management
- Active Zone: Strong color fill (green for demand, red for supply) with solid border.
- Mitigated Zone: Faded color, dotted border – indicates partial fill or reduced strength.
- Broken Zone: Automatically removed from chart to reduce clutter.
Old zones are also pruned when exceeding 450 total to maintain performance.
5. Smart Visibility Engine (Optional)
When enabled:
- All zones are initially hidden.
- Only the closest relevant zones are shown:
- Up to user-defined limit (default 10) highest bullish zones (closest below price)
- Up to user-defined limit (default 10) lowest bearish zones (closest above price)
- Visible zones are automatically extended to the right and styled appropriately.
This keeps the chart clean while highlighting the most actionable zones near current price.
6. Visual Elements
- Demand Zones: Green fill, labeled "OB Demand"
- Supply Zones: Red fill, labeled "OB Supply"
- Tiny text size to minimize chart clutter
- Zones drawn as boxes using bar_index positioning
How to Use
Order Blocks represent areas of price inefficiency where smart money likely entered/exited positions aggressively.
- Demand Zones (Green): Potential long entry areas when price returns. Expect buying pressure to defend these levels. Best setups when price retests an active (non-mitigated) zone.
- Supply Zones (Red): Potential short entry areas when price returns. Expect selling pressure to emerge.
- Mitigated Zones: Lower probability – may act as weaker support/resistance.
- Smart Visibility: Highly recommended for cleaner charts. Focuses attention on zones most likely to be tested soon.
- Combine with:
- Break of Structure (BOS)/Change of Character (CHOCH)
- Liquidity grabs
- Higher timeframe confluence
- Volume or momentum confirmation
Use higher FVG threshold (e.g., 0.8–1.0) for fewer, higher-quality zones. Lower threshold for more aggressive detection.
Disclaimer
This indicator is a technical analysis tool and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management.

Vietnamese Stock: Discount Linear Regression Liquidity GrabThe Discount Linear Regression Liquidity Grab is a sophisticated technical analysis tool that combines statistical trend analysis with Premium/Discount Zone and Price Action logic. Unlike standard Linear Regression Channels that repaint or stretch indefinitely, this indicator is dynamic: it automatically detects volatility breakouts to "reset" the channel, creating distinct market "Sections."
This tool is designed to help traders identify trend exhaustion, fair value gaps (FVGs), and high-probability reversal or continuation zones using two distinct built-in strategies.
Key Features
1. Dynamic Channel Resets
The core engine calculates a Linear Regression Channel based on a Pearson R coefficient and Deviation multipliers.
- How it works: When price breaks out of the Upper or Lower Deviation bands, the script recognizes a shift in momentum. It "locks" the previous channel and begins calculating a new one from the breakout point.
- Benefit: This creates a historical map of market structure, showing you exactly where previous trends began and ended.
2. Smart Money Concepts (SMC) Integration
For every completed section (channel), the indicator automatically highlights:
Highest High & Lowest Low Boxes: Identifies the structural range of the previous move.
- Gaps & FVGs: Automatically draws boxes for Fair Value Gaps and Price Gaps within the channel, acting as potential magnets for price.
3. The Discount Zone (New Feature)
The indicator projects a Discount Area (Red Box) from the previous section's midline down to its lowest low.
- Logic: This box represents the "Discount" pricing relative to the previous move.
- Behavior: The box extends to the right until price successfully "grabs liquidity" (closes below the midline/red line). Once the grab occurs, the box stops extending, marking that the liquidity event is complete.
Built-In Strategies
This indicator includes two automated strategy signals based on the interaction between current price and historical sections.
Strategy 1: Breakout & Retest (Trend Continuation)
This strategy looks for a classic resistance-turned-support setup.
- Breakout: Price closes above the Highest High of a previous section (Triangle Up).
- Retest: Price pulls back and closes at or below that breakout level (Triangle Down).
- Confirmation: Price breaks above the high of the initial breakout candle (Green Background).
Strategy 2: Midline Reclaim (Mean Reversion / Discount Buy)
This strategy focuses on buying from the "Discount" zone.
- Liquidity Grab: Price drops below the Midline (Red Line) of a previous section, entering the Discount Zone.
- Reclaim: Price closes back above the Midline, signaling that the dip was bought up.
Signal: A Diamond shape and Teal Background appear.
How to Use
- Trend Trading: Use the Dynamic Channels to visualize the current slope. If the channel is angling up, look for long setups.
- Confluence: Use the Discount Zones and FVG boxes as areas of interest. If price enters a Red Discount Box and forms a reversal pattern, it is a high-probability entry.
- Stop Loss Placement: The Lowest Low boxes of previous sections serve as excellent invalidation points for long positions.
Alerts
The indicator comes with pre-configured alerts for:
- Strategy 1 Confirmation.
- Strategy 2 Midline Reclaim.
- New Channel Formation (Trend Reset).
- Liquidity Grab Events.
8FigRenko – Precision FVG Zones8FigRenko – Pure FVG Zones is a clean, reliable Fair Value Gap tool designed for traders who want accurate FVG zones only from the chart timeframe — without repainting, without higher-timeframe complications, and without messy borders.
This script is built for traders who want simple, precise, and visually clean imbalance zones that work the way FVGs should work:
🔥 Features
✔ Chart-timeframe FVGs only
No request.security, no multi-TF artifacts, no lagging or repainting.
The script reads exactly what your chart shows and never mixes timeframes.
✔ Wick-based or Body-based detection
Use classic ICT wick gaps, or switch to body-only gaps with one click.
✔ Minimum FVG size (points)
Filters out noise by requiring a minimum point distance (default: 5 points).
Great for futures and fast intraday charts.
✔ Clean, seamless boxes (no borders)
The FVG zones are rendered with borderless boxes, matching the modern style shown in institutional imbalance tools.
✔ Proper “end-to-end” FVG drawing
Each gap box starts from the origin of the imbalance and extends forward automatically.
✔ Auto-disrespect removal
FVGs are automatically deleted when price invalidates the zone:
Bullish FVG removed if close < FVG low
Bearish FVG removed if close > FVG high
No clutter. No manual cleanup.
✔ Extend zones forever or to the current bar
Choose if your FVGs run across the full future chart or just up to the latest candle.
✔ Optional: show only most recent FVG
Great for scalping or IFV (Immediate Fair Value) strategies.
PumpC PAC & MAsPumpC – PAC & MAs (Open Source)
A complete Price Action Candles (PAC) toolkit combining classical price action patterns (Fair Value Gaps, Inside Bars, Hammers, Inverted Hammers, and Volume Imbalances) with a flexible Moving Averages (MAs) module and an advanced bar-coloring system.
This script highlights supply/demand inefficiencies and micro-patterns with forward-extending boxes, recolors zones when mitigated, qualifies patterns with a global High-Volume filter, and ships with ready-to-use alerts. It works across intraday through swing trading on any market (e.g., NASDAQ:QQQ , $CME:ES1!, FX:EURUSD , BITSTAMP:BTCUSD ).
This is an open-source script. The description is detailed so users understand what the script does, how it works, and how to use it. It makes no performance claims and does not provide trade advice.
Acknowledgment & Credits
This script originates from the structural and box-handling logic found in the Super OrderBlock / FVG / BoS Tools by makuchaku & eFe. Their pioneering framework provided the base methods for managing arrays of boxes, extending zones forward, and recoloring once mitigated.
Building on that foundation, I have substantially expanded and adapted the code to create a unified Price Action Candles toolkit . This includes Al Brooks–inspired PAC logic, additional patterns like Inside Bars, Hammers, Inverted Hammers, and the new Volume Imbalance module, along with strong-bar coloring, close-threshold detection, a flexible global High-Volume filter, and a multi-timeframe Moving Averages system.
What it does
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) : Detects 3-bar displacement gaps, plots forward-extending boxes, and optionally recolors them once mitigated.
Inside Bars (IB) : Highlights bars fully contained within the prior candle’s range, with optional high-volume filter.
Hammers (H) & Inverted Hammers (IH) : Identifies rejection candles using configurable body/upper/lower wick thresholds. High-volume qualification optional.
Volume Imbalances (VI) : Detects inter-body gaps where one candle’s body does not overlap the prior candle’s body. Boxes extend forward until wick-based mitigation occurs (only after the two-bar formation completes). Alerts available for creation and mitigation.
Mitigation Recolor : Each pattern can flip to a mitigated color once price trades back through its vertical zone.
Moving Averages (MAs) : Four configurable EMAs/SMAs, with per-MA timeframe, length, color, and clutter-free plotting rules.
Strong Bar Coloring : Highlights bullish/bearish engulfing reversals with different colors for high-volume vs low-volume cases.
Close Threshold Bars : Marks candles that close in the top or bottom portion of their range, even if the body is small. Helps spot continuation pressure before a full trend bar forms.
Alerts : Notifications available for FVG+, FVG−, IB, H, IH, VI creation, and VI mitigation.
Connection to Al Brooks’ PAC teachings
This script reflects Al Brooks’ Price Action Candle methodology. PAC patterns like Inside Bars, Hammers, and Inverted Hammers are not trade signals on their own—they gain meaning in context of trend, failed breakouts, and effort vs. result.
By layering in volume imbalances, strong-bar reversals, and volume filters, this script focuses attention on the PACs that show true participation and conviction, aligning with Brooks’ emphasis on reading crowd psychology through price action.
Why the High-Volume filter matters
Volume is a key proxy for conviction. A PAC or VI formed on light volume can be misleading noise; one formed on above-average volume carries more weight.
Elevates Inside Bars that show absorption/compression with heavy activity.
Distinguishes Hammers that reject price aggressively vs. weak drifts.
Filters Inverted Hammers to emphasize true supply pressure.
Highlights VI zones where institutional order flow left inefficiencies.
Differentiates strong engulfing reversals from weaker, low-participation moves.
Inputs & Customization
Inputs are grouped logically for fast configuration:
High-Volume Filter : Global lookback & multiple, per-pattern toggles.
FVG : Visibility, mitigated recolor, box style/transparency, label controls.
IB : Visibility, require high volume, mitigated recolor, colors, label settings.
Hammer / IH : Visibility, require high volume, mitigated recolor, wick/body thresholds.
VI : Visibility, require high volume, mitigated recolor, box style, labels, mitigation alerts.
Strong Bars : Enable/disable, separate colors for high-volume and low-volume outcomes.
Close Threshold Bars : Customizable close thresholds, labels, optional count markers.
MAs : EMA/SMA type, per-MA toggle, length, timeframe, color.
Alerts
New Bullish FVG (+)
New Bearish FVG (−)
New Inside Bar (IB)
New Hammer (H)
New Inverted Hammer (IH)
New Volume Imbalance (VI)
VI Mitigated
Strong Bullish Engulfing / Bearish Engulfing (high- and low-volume variants)
Suggested workflow
Choose your market & timeframe (script works across equities, futures, FX, crypto).
Toggle only the PACs you actually trade. Assign distinct colors for clarity.
Use MAs for directional bias and higher timeframe structure.
Enable High-Volume filters when you want to emphasize conviction.
Watch mitigation recolors to see which levels/zones have been interacted with.
Use alerts selectively for setups aligned with your plan.
Originality
Builds upon Super OrderBlock / FVG / BoS Tools (makuchaku & eFe) for FVG/box framework.
Expanded into a unified PAC toolkit including IB, H, IH, and VI patterns.
Brooks-inspired design: Patterns contextualized with volume and trend, not isolated.
Flexible high-volume gating with per-pattern toggles.
New VI integration with wick-based mitigation.
Strong Bar Coloring differentiates conviction vs weak reversals.
MTF-aware MAs prevent clutter while providing structure.
Open-source: Transparent for learning, editing, and extension.

Liquidity Grab Strategy (Volume Trap)🧠 Strategy Logic:
Liquidity Grab Detection:
The script looks for a sharp drop in price (bearish engulfing or breakdown candle).
However, volume remains flat (within 5% of the 20-period moving average), suggesting the move is manipulated, not genuine.
Fair Value Gap Confirmation (FVG):
It confirms that a Fair Value Gap exists — a gap between recent candle bodies that price is likely to retrace into.
This gap represents a high-probability entry zone.
Trade Setup:
A limit BUY order is placed at the base of the FVG.
Stop Loss (SL) is placed below the gap.
Take Profit (TP) is placed at the most recent swing high.
📈 How to Use It:
Add the strategy to your TradingView chart (1–5 min or 15 min works well for intraday setups).
Look for green BUY labels and plotted lines:
💚 Green = Entry price
🔴 Red = Stop loss
🔵 Blue = Take profit
The script will automatically simulate entries when conditions are met and exit either at TP or SL.

ICT Macro Zone Boxes w/ Individual H/L Tracking v3.1ICT Macro Zones (Grey Box Version
This indicator dynamically highlights key intraday time-based macro sessions using a clean, minimalistic grey box overlay, helping traders align with institutional trading cycles. Inspired by ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts, it tracks real-time highs and lows for each session and optionally extends the zone box after the session ends — making it a precision tool for intraday setups, order flow analysis, and macro-level liquidity sweeps.
### 🔍 **What It Does**
- Plots **six predefined macro sessions** used in Smart Money Concepts:
- AM Macro (09:50–10:10)
- London Close (10:50–11:10)
- Lunch Macro (11:30–13:30)
- PM Macro (14:50–15:10)
- London SB (03:00–04:00)
- PM SB (15:00–16:00)
- Each zone:
- **Tracks high and low dynamically** throughout the session.
- **Draws a consistent grey shaded box** to visualize price boundaries.
- **Displays a label** at the first bar of the session (optional).
- **Optionally extends** the box to the right after the session closes.
### 🧠 **How It Works**
- Uses Pine Script arrays to define each session’s time window, label, and color.
- Detects session entry using `time()` within a New York timezone context.
- High/Low values are updated per bar inside the session window.
- Once a session ends, the box is optionally closed and fixed in place.
- All visual zones use a standardized grey tone for clarity and consistency across charts.
### 🛠️ **Settings**
- **Shade Zone High→Low:** Enable/disable the grey macro box.
- **Extend Box After Session:** Keep the zone visible after it ends.
- **Show Entry Label:** Display a label at the start of each session.
### 🎯 **Why This Script is Unique**
Unlike basic session markers or colored backgrounds, this tool:
- Focuses on **macro moments of liquidity and reversal**, not just open/close times.

Useful for identifying prior session liquidity zones, key support/resistance levels, and potential reaction areas.
📉 3. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Highlights imbalances in price action between non-overlapping candles (also known as FVGs or inefficiencies).
Draws a shaded box between candles where gaps exist:
Green for bullish FVGs
Red for bearish FVGs
🔔 4. Alert Support
Optional alerts are built in for:
Long breakout (price breaks above ORB)
Short breakout (price breaks below ORB)
🎯 Use Case
Perfect for:
Day traders looking to capitalize on early volatility at the London open
Traders using liquidity-based strategies, retests, or gap-fills
Visualizing and aligning with prior session highs/lows for structure and context
2:30 [LuciTech]this is a technical analysis tool designed to highlight key price levels and patterns during a specific trading window, based on UK time (Europe/London). It overlays visual elements on the chart, including a 12 PM reference line, Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) levels, a highlighted 2:30 PM candle, and Engulfing Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). This indicator is intended for traders who focus on intraday price action and liquidity zones.
Features
The 12 PM Line displays a vertical line at 12:00 PM (UK time) to mark the start of the session. It’s customizable, allowing you to enable or disable it and adjust its color.
BSL/SSL Lines track the highest high (BSL) and lowest low (SSL) from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (UK time). These lines extend horizontally until 3:30 PM, after which they remain static at their last recorded levels. You can customize them by enabling or disabling visibility, adjusting colors, choosing a line style (solid, dashed, or dotted), and setting the width.
The 2:30 PM Candle highlights the candle at 2:30 PM (UK time) with a distinct color. It’s customizable, with options to enable or disable it and change its color.
Engulfing FVG (Fair Value Gap) identifies bullish and bearish engulfing patterns with a gap from the prior candle’s range. It draws a shaded box over the FVG area, and you can customize it by enabling or disabling it and adjusting the box color.
How It Works
The indicator operates within a session starting at 12:00 PM (UK time). BSL/SSL levels update between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM, with lines extending until 3:30 PM. After 3:30 PM, these lines freeze.
BSL/SSL lines show the highest price (BSL) and lowest price (SSL) reached during the 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM window. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, marking the final range boundaries.
The 2:30 PM candle emphasizes a key timestamp, often of interest to intraday traders.
Engulfing FVGs detect significant price gaps created by engulfing candles, which may indicate potential reversal or continuation zones.
Settings
12 PM Line Settings let you toggle visibility and set the line color.
BSL/SSL Line Settings allow you to toggle visibility, set BSL and SSL colors, choose a line style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), and adjust width (1-4).
2:30 Candle Settings let you toggle visibility and set the candle color.
Engulfing FVG Settings allow you to toggle visibility and set the box color.
Interpretation
The 12 PM Line serves as a reference for the session start.
BSL/SSL Lines may act as potential support or resistance zones or highlight liquidity areas. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, showing the session’s final range.
The 2:30 PM Candle can be monitored for price action signals, such as reversals or breakouts.
Engulfing FVGs shaded areas may indicate imbalances in supply and demand, useful for identifying trade opportunities or stop-loss placement.
Notes
The timezone is set to Europe/London (UK time). Ensure your chart’s timezone aligns for accurate results.
This indicator is best used on intraday timeframes, such as 1-minute or 5-minute charts.
It provides visual aids for analysis and does not generate buy or sell signals on its own.
MMXM ICT [TradingFinder] Market Maker Model PO3 CHoCH/CSID + FVG🔵 Introduction
The MMXM Smart Money Reversal leverages key metrics such as SMT Divergence, Liquidity Sweep, HTF PD Array, Market Structure Shift (MSS) or (ChoCh), CISD, and Fair Value Gap (FVG) to identify critical turning points in the market. Designed for traders aiming to analyze the behavior of major market participants, this setup pinpoints strategic areas for making informed trading decisions.
The document introduces the MMXM model, a trading strategy that identifies market maker activity to predict price movements. The model operates across five distinct stages: original consolidation, price run, smart money reversal, accumulation/distribution, and completion. This systematic approach allows traders to differentiate between buyside and sellside curves, offering a structured framework for interpreting price action.
Market makers play a pivotal role in facilitating these movements by bridging liquidity gaps. They continuously quote bid (buy) and ask (sell) prices for assets, ensuring smooth trading conditions.
By maintaining liquidity, market makers prevent scenarios where buyers are left without sellers and vice versa, making their activity a cornerstone of the MMXM strategy.
SMT Divergence serves as the first signal of a potential trend reversal, arising from discrepancies between the movements of related assets or indices. This divergence is detected when two or more highly correlated assets or indices move in opposite directions, signaling a likely shift in market trends.
Liquidity Sweep occurs when the market targets liquidity in specific zones through false price movements. This process allows major market participants to execute their orders efficiently by collecting the necessary liquidity to enter or exit positions.
The HTF PD Array refers to premium and discount zones on higher timeframes. These zones highlight price levels where the market is in a premium (ideal for selling) or discount (ideal for buying). These areas are identified based on higher timeframe market behavior and guide traders toward lucrative opportunities.
Market Structure Shift (MSS), also referred to as ChoCh, indicates a change in market structure, often marked by breaking key support or resistance levels. This shift confirms the directional movement of the market, signaling the start of a new trend.
CISD (Change in State of Delivery) reflects a transition in price delivery mechanisms. Typically occurring after MSS, CISD confirms the continuation of price movement in the new direction.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) represents zones where price imbalance exists between buyers and sellers. These gaps often act as price targets for filling, offering traders opportunities for entry or exit.
By combining all these metrics, the Smart Money Reversal provides a comprehensive tool for analyzing market behavior and identifying key trading opportunities. It enables traders to anticipate the actions of major players and align their strategies accordingly.
MMBM :
MMSM :
🔵 How to Use
The Smart Money Reversal operates in two primary states: MMBM (Market Maker Buy Model) and MMSM (Market Maker Sell Model). Each state highlights critical structural changes in market trends, focusing on liquidity behavior and price reactions at key levels to offer precise and effective trading opportunities.
The MMXM model expands on this by identifying five distinct stages of market behavior: original consolidation, price run, smart money reversal, accumulation/distribution, and completion. These stages provide traders with a detailed roadmap for interpreting price action and anticipating market maker activity.
🟣 Market Maker Buy Model
In the MMBM state, the market transitions from a bearish trend to a bullish trend. Initially, SMT Divergence between related assets or indices reveals weaknesses in the bearish trend. Subsequently, a Liquidity Sweep collects liquidity from lower levels through false breakouts.
After this, the price reacts to discount zones identified in the HTF PD Array, where major market participants often execute buy orders. The market confirms the bullish trend with a Market Structure Shift (MSS) and a change in price delivery state (CISD). During this phase, an FVG emerges as a key trading opportunity. Traders can open long positions upon a pullback to this FVG zone, capitalizing on the bullish continuation.
🟣 Market Maker Sell Model
In the MMSM state, the market shifts from a bullish trend to a bearish trend. Here, SMT Divergence highlights weaknesses in the bullish trend. A Liquidity Sweep then gathers liquidity from higher levels.
The price reacts to premium zones identified in the HTF PD Array, where major sellers enter the market and reverse the price direction. A Market Structure Shift (MSS) and a change in delivery state (CISD) confirm the bearish trend. The FVG then acts as a target for the price. Traders can initiate short positions upon a pullback to this FVG zone, profiting from the bearish continuation.
Market makers actively bridge liquidity gaps throughout these stages, quoting continuous bid and ask prices for assets. This ensures that trades are executed seamlessly, even during periods of low market participation, and supports the structured progression of the MMXM model.
The price’s reaction to FVG zones in both states provides traders with opportunities to reduce risk and enhance precision. These pullbacks to FVG zones not only represent optimal entry points but also create avenues for maximizing returns with minimal risk.

ICT Silver Bullet with signals
The "ICT Silver Bullet with signals" indicator (inspired from the lectures of "The Inner Circle Trader" (ICT)),
goes a step further than the ICT Silver Bullet publication, which I made for LuxAlgo :
• uses HTF candles
• instant drawing of Support & Resistance (S/R) lines when price retraces into FVG
• NWOG - NDOG S/R lines
• signals
The Silver Bullet (SB) window which is a specific 1-hour interval where a Fair Value Gap (FVG) pattern can be formed.
When price goes back to the FVG, without breaking it, Support & Resistance lines will be drawn immediately.
There are 3 different Silver Bullet windows (New York local time):
The London Open Silver Bullet (03 AM — 04 AM ~ 03:00 — 04:00)
The AM Session Silver Bullet (10 AM — 11 AM ~ 10:00 — 11:00)
The PM Session Silver Bullet (02 PM — 03 PM ~ 14:00 — 15:00)
🔶 USAGE
This technique can visualise potential support/resistance lines, which can be used as targets.
The script contains 2 main components:
• forming of a Fair Value Gap (FVG)
• drawing support/resistance (S/R) lines
🔹 Forming of FVG
When HTF candles forms an FVG, the FVG will be drawn at the end (close) of the last HTF candle.
To make it easier to visualise the 2 HTF candles that form the FVG, you can enable
• SHOW -> HTF candles
During the SB session, when a FVG is broken, the FVG will be removed, together with its S/R lines.
The same goes if price did not retrace into FVG at the last bar of the SB session
Only exception is when "Remove broken FVG's" is disabled.
In this case a FVG can be broken, as long as price bounces back before the end of the SB session, it will remain to be visible:
🔹 Drawing support/resistance lines
S/R target lines are drawn immediately when price retraces into the FVG.
They will remain updated until they are broken (target hit)
Potential S/R lines are formed by:
• previous swings (swing settings (left-right)
• New Week Opening Gap (NWOG): close on Friday - weekly open
• New Day Opening Gap (NWOG): close previous day - current daily open
Only non-broken lines are included.
Broken =
• minimum of open and close below potential S/R line
• maximum of open and close above potential S/R line
NDOG lines are coloured fuchsia (as in the ICT lectures), NWOG are coloured white (darkmode) or black (lightmode ~ ICT lectures)
Swing line colour can be set as desired.
Here S/R includes NDOG lines:
The same situation, with "Extend Target-lines to their source" enabled:
Here with NWOG lines:
This publication contains a "Minimum Trade Framework (mTFW)", which represents the best-case expected price delivery, this is not your actual trade entry - exit range.
• 40 ticks for index futures or indices
• 15 pips for Forex pairs
The minimum distance (if applicable) can be shown by enabling "Show" - "Minimum Trade Framework" -> blue arrow from close to mTFW
Potential S/R lines needs to be higher (bullish) or lower (bearish) than mTFW.
🔶 SETTINGS
(check USAGE for deeper insights and explanation)
🔹 Only last x bars: when enabled, the script will do most of the calculations at these last x candles, potentially this can speeds calculations.
🔹 Swing settings (left-right): Sets the length, which will set the lookback period/sensitivity of the ZigZag patterns (which directs the trend and points for S/R lines)
🔹 FVG
HTF (minutes): 1-15 minutes.
• When the chart TF is equal of higher, calculations are based on current TF.
• Chart TF > 15 minutes will give the warning: "Please use a timeframe <= 15 minutes".
Remove broken FVG's: when enabled the script will remove FVG (+ associated S/R lines) immediately when FVG is broken at opposite direction.
FVG's still will be automatically removed at the end of the SB session, when there is no retrace, together with associated S/R lines,...
~ trend: Only include FVG in the same direction as the current trend
Note -> when set 'right' (swing setting) rather high ( > 3), he trend change will be delayed as well (default 'right' max 5)
Extend: extend FVG to max right side of SB session
🔹 Targets – support/resistance
Extend Target-lines to their source: extend lines to their origin
Colours (Swing S/R lines)
🔹 Show
SB session: show lines and labels of SB session (+ colour)
• Labels can be disabled separately in the 'Style' section, colour is set at the 'Inputs' section
Trend : Show trend (ZigZag, coloured ~ trend)
HTF candles: Show the 2 HTF candles that form the FVG
Minimum Trade Framework: blue arrow (if applicable)
🔶 ALERTS
There are 4 signals provided (bullish/bearish):
FVG Formed
FVG Retrace
Target reached
FVG cancelled
You can choose between dynamic alerts - only 1 alert needs to be set for all signals, or you can set specific alerts as desired.

NeuraEdge ORB - Opening Range Breakout IndicatorOVERVIEW
NeuraEdge ORB is an open-source Opening Range Breakout indicator that automates the classic 15-minute ORB strategy. The indicator tracks the first 15 minutes of market action (9:30-9:45 AM ET), identifies breakouts above or below this range, and generates trading signals with automated stop loss and take profit calculations.
The Opening Range Breakout concept is based on the observation that the initial price action after market open often establishes directional bias for the trading session, as institutional order flow and overnight gap reactions manifest during this window.
CORE METHODOLOGY
Opening Range Construction:
The indicator uses session-based time detection to identify the 9:30-9:45 AM Eastern Time window. During this period, it tracks the highest high and lowest low to establish the opening range boundaries. The range is marked complete when the 15-minute window closes.
Calculation process:
OR High = Maximum high value during the 15-minute window
OR Low = Minimum low value during the 15-minute window
OR Midpoint = (OR High + OR Low) / 2
Range Size = OR High - OR Low (compared to 14-period ATR for context)
Breakout Detection:
The indicator identifies breakouts using close-price confirmation to reduce false signals from wicks:
Bullish breakout: Close above OR High (with previous close at or below OR High)
Bearish breakout: Close below OR Low (with previous close at or above OR Low)
The indicator tracks whether each direction has already broken to prevent duplicate signals on the same range.
Entry Type Logic:
Two entry methodologies are supported:
Breakout Mode - Signals immediately upon range break. Enters on the breakout bar when close confirms direction.
Retest Mode - Waits for price to break the range, then pullback to touch the range level before entering. Cancels if price moves too far beyond midpoint. This provides better entry prices with tighter stop losses.
Volume Confirmation:
Optional volume filter compares current bar volume to 20-period simple moving average. Requires volume > 1.2x average to validate breakout strength and filter low-conviction moves.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Integration:
Optional confluence filter that checks for unfilled FVG in the breakout direction:
Bullish FVG detected when: current bar's low > two bars ago high (creating gap)
Bearish FVG detected when: current bar's high < two bars ago low (creating gap)
Minimum FVG size: 0.3x ATR to filter noise
FVG considered filled when price retraces to gap midpoint
Signals only generate when an unfilled FVG exists in the breakout direction, adding institutional order flow confluence.
Risk Management Calculations:
Three stop loss placement methods:
Opposite Side - SL at opposite end of opening range (classic ORB approach)
Midpoint - SL at range midpoint (tighter risk, lower reward potential)
ATR Based - SL at 1.5x ATR from entry (adaptive to volatility)
Take profit calculated as: Entry ± (Entry - Stop Loss) × Risk:Reward Ratio
Default 1.5:1 R:R ratio, adjustable from 1.0 to 5.0.
Performance Tracking:
The indicator maintains a trade history using Pine Script's type system:
Records entry price, stop loss, take profit, and direction for each signal
Tracks outcome when price hits stop loss or take profit levels
Auto-closes after 80 bars if neither level hit
Calculates rolling win rate from last 50 trades maximum
Displays W/L record in real-time dashboard
VISUAL COMPONENTS
Opening Range Box:
Semi-transparent blue box drawn from range start bar to current bar + 20, showing the established range boundaries visually.
Range Levels:
Green line at OR High (potential long entry level)
Red line at OR Low (potential short entry level)
Gray dotted line at OR Midpoint (reference level)
All lines extend 50 bars forward for anticipation.
Trade Signals:
Green up arrow with "LONG ORB Break" label below price
Red down arrow with "SHORT ORB Break" label above price
Dashed lines showing SL and TP levels extending 30 bars
Small labels marking SL and TP endpoints
Real-Time Dashboard:
Top-right panel displaying:
OR formation status (Forming / Complete / Waiting)
Current OR High, Low, and Range size (with ATR multiple)
Breakout status (Long / Short / None)
Volume status (High / Normal)
FVG presence (Bull / Bear / None)
Entry settings (Breakout/Retest, R:R, SL type)
Win rate percentage and W/L record
PRACTICAL APPLICATION
Ideal Market Conditions:
Liquid instruments: SPY, QQQ, IWM, high-volume stocks
Recommended timeframes: 1-minute or 5-minute charts for precise entries
Most effective during trending days with clear directional bias
Range size between 0.5-1.5x ATR typically provides best risk:reward
Usage Workflow:
Apply indicator at market open (9:30 AM ET)
Observe range formation during first 15 minutes
Wait for "Complete" status in dashboard
Monitor for breakout signals with volume/FVG confirmation
Enter on signal, place stop loss and take profit as marked
Avoid taking opposing signals on same day (trend following approach)
Retest vs Breakout Selection:
Use Breakout mode on high-momentum days with strong overnight gaps
Use Retest mode on slower days or when seeking better entry prices
Retest mode reduces signal frequency but improves entry quality
Time-of-Day Considerations:
The indicator includes a trading cutoff setting (default 3:00 PM ET) to avoid late-day chop and reduced liquidity. First-hour breakouts (10:00-11:00 AM) historically show strongest follow-through.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION
Display Options:
Toggle signals, opening range box, and dashboard independently
Clean visual design to reduce chart clutter
Opening Range Settings:
Opening range duration (5-60 minutes in 5-minute increments)
Default 15 minutes aligns with classic ORB methodology
Trading cutoff hour (10-16, representing 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM ET)
Entry Configuration:
Entry type (Breakout / Retest)
Volume confirmation toggle (requires 1.2x average volume)
FVG confluence toggle (requires unfilled gap in breakout direction)
Risk Management:
Stop loss placement (Opposite Side / Midpoint / ATR Based)
Risk:reward ratio (1.0 - 5.0, default 1.5)
Future: Trail stop after partial TP (currently placeholder)
Alert System:
Five alert conditions available:
Opening Range Complete
ORB Long Signal
ORB Short Signal
Breakout Up (range broken, regardless of signal)
Breakout Down (range broken, regardless of signal)
BEST PRACTICES
Recommended Usage:
Focus on highly liquid instruments with tight spreads
Use 1-5 minute charts for entry precision
Respect calculated stop losses (range defines maximum risk)
Typically 1-2 quality setups per day maximum
Consider overall market trend (SPY/QQQ direction)
Risk Considerations:
Very small ranges (< 0.3x ATR) prone to false breakouts
Very large ranges (> 2x ATR) may indicate gap day requiring adjusted expectations
Low volume breakouts fail more frequently
Avoid trading both directions on same day (pick strongest setup)
IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
This indicator is provided free and open-source for educational purposes. The Opening Range Breakout strategy is a well-documented public domain trading concept. This implementation adds automation, visual clarity, and optional confluence filters.
No indicator guarantees profitable trades. Past performance does not predict future results. Traders are responsible for their own trading decisions and risk management. Always use appropriate position sizing and never risk more than you can afford to lose.

Multi-TF Synthesis: Correlates gaps across user-selected timeframes
Visual Rendering: Displays only relevant, active gaps to prevent clutter
💡 Note:
Start with default settings and gradually adjust parameters after observing market interactions. Focus on gaps with quality scores above 7 that align with higher timeframe trends. Combine with price action at psychological levels for highest-probability setups. Remember that higher timeframe gaps generally carry more significance than current chart gaps.
NVentures Liquidity Radar ProInstitutional Liquidity Radar Pro
OVERVIEW
This indicator combines three institutional trading concepts into a unified confluence scoring system: Liquidity Zones (swing-based), Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps. The unique value lies not in these individual concepts, but in HOW they interact through the confluence scoring algorithm to filter high-probability zones.
HOW THE CONFLUENCE SCORING WORKS
The core innovation is the calcConfluence() function that assigns a numerical score to each detected level:
1. Base Score: Every swing pivot starts with score = 1
2. Zone Overlap Detection: The algorithm iterates through all active zones within confDist * ATR proximity. Each overlapping zone adds +1 to the score
3. Order Block Proximity: If an Order Block's midpoint (top + bottom) / 2 falls within the confluence distance, +1 is added
4. HTF Validation: Using request.security(), the indicator fetches higher timeframe swing pivots. If the current zone aligns with an HTF swing within 2 * confDist * ATR_htf, a +2 bonus is awarded
Zones scoring 4+ are highlighted as high confluence - these represent areas where multiple institutional concepts converge.
HOW LIQUIDITY ZONES ARE CALCULATED
Detection: ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() with configurable lookback (default: 5 bars left/right)
Zone Width - Three modes available:
- ATR Dynamic: ATR(14) * multiplier (default 0.25)
- Fixed %: close * (percentage / 100)
- Wick Based: max(upperWick, lowerWick) * 1.5
Proximity Filter: isTooClose() prevents clustering by enforcing minimum ATR * minATRdist between zones
HOW ORDER BLOCKS ARE DETECTED
The detectBullishOB() / detectBearishOB() functions identify the last opposing candle before an impulse move:
1. Check if candle is opposing direction (bearish before bullish impulse, vice versa)
2. Validate consecutive candles in impulse direction (configurable, default: 3)
3. Volume confirmation: volume >= volMA * volMult (using 50-period SMA)
4. Minimum move validation: abs(close - close ) > ATR
This filters out weak OBs and focuses on those with institutional volume footprints.
HOW FAIR VALUE GAPS ARE DETECTED
FVGs represent price imbalances:
- Bullish FVG: low - high > ATR * fvgMinSize
- Bearish FVG: low - high > ATR * fvgMinSize
The ATR-relative sizing ensures gaps are significant relative to current volatility.
HOW SWEEP DETECTION WORKS
The checkSweep() function identifies false breakouts through wick analysis:
1. Calculate wick percentage: upperWick / totalRange or lowerWick / totalRange
2. Sweep conditions for resistance: high > zone.upper AND close < zone.price AND wickPct >= threshold
3. Sweep conditions for support: low < zone.lower AND close > zone.price AND wickPct >= threshold
A sweep indicates liquidity was grabbed without genuine continuation - often preceding reversals.
HOW FRESHNESS DECAY WORKS
The calcFreshness() function implements linear decay:
freshness = 1.0 - (age / decayBars)
freshness = max(freshness, minFresh)
This ensures old, tested zones fade visually while fresh zones remain prominent.
WHY THESE COMPONENTS WORK TOGETHER
The synergy is based on the principle that institutional activity leaves multiple footprints:
- Swing Pivots = where retail stops cluster
- Order Blocks = where institutions entered
- FVGs = where aggressive institutional orders created imbalances
- HTF Alignment = where higher timeframe participants are active
When these footprints converge at the same price level (high confluence score), the probability of significant price reaction increases.
CONFIGURATION
- Swing Detection Length: 5-8 for intraday, 8-15 for swing trading

NX - ICT PD Arrays (Enhanced) FVG & ORDER BLOCKS # NX - ICT PD Arrays (Enhanced) - Algorithm Explainer
This indicator identifies high-probability Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs) using Inner Circle Trader concepts with intelligent filtering to show only the most significant institutional footprints.
## How It Works
**Smart Filtering System:**
The algorithm uses a multi-factor scoring system (0-100 points) to evaluate each potential zone:
**For FVGs (Fair Value Gaps):**
- Gap size relative to ATR volatility (0-40 pts)
- Price displacement strength (0-40 pts)
- Formation at swing high/low structure (bonus 20 pts)
- Only displays zones scoring 25+ points
**For Order Blocks:**
- Block size relative to ATR (0-30 pts)
- Displacement momentum (0-35 pts)
- Swing point formation (bonus 15 pts)
- Market structure break confirmation (bonus 20 pts)
- Only displays zones scoring 30+ points
**Key Features:**
- ATR-normalized sizing filters out noise across all timeframes
- Swing detection identifies structurally significant levels
- Displacement percentage measures institutional momentum
- Optional structure break requirement for highest-probability OBs
- Zones extend until price fills them completely
**Adjustable Controls:**
Fine-tune sensitivity via displacement %, ATR multiples, and swing lookback parameters to match your trading style and market conditions.

Ultimate Institutional Order Flow Pro [Pointalgo]Ultimate Institutional Order Flow (UIOF Pro)
Ultimate Institutional Order Flow (UIOF Pro) is a multi-component market analysis indicator designed to study order flow behavior, liquidity interaction, volatility structure, and session-based participation.
It integrates several commonly used market structure and order-flow concepts into a single visual framework.
This script focuses on context and alignment, not on isolated signals.
Core Objective
The indicator aims to identify areas where price, volume, liquidity, and structure appear aligned in the same direction.
It does this by combining:
VWAP behavior
Volume participation
Cumulative delta analysis
Liquidity pool interaction
Order blocks and fair value gaps
Market structure shifts
Session and higher-timeframe confirmation
VWAP & Volatility Framework
Calculates VWAP using session, weekly, or monthly anchors.
Optional VWAP standard-deviation bands visualize price dispersion.
VWAP slope and price position are used to classify directional bias.
VWAP is treated as a dynamic equilibrium reference rather than a signal.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)
Estimates buy and sell pressure based on intrabar price movement.
Tracks cumulative delta and a smoothed delta average.
Uses delta change normalization to highlight abnormal activity.
Detects potential delta divergences when price and participation differ.
CVD is used to assess whether participation supports or contradicts price movement.
Liquidity Zones & Sweeps
Identifies recent swing highs and lows as potential liquidity pools.
Tracks buy-side and sell-side liquidity areas.
Flags conditions where price sweeps liquidity beyond recent extremes.
Liquidity interaction is treated as context, not prediction.
Order Blocks
1. Detects potential bullish and bearish order blocks using:
Candle structure
Volatility thresholds
Volume confirmation
2.Highlights areas where strong participation followed opposing price movement.
Order blocks are visual reference zones and do not imply guaranteed reactions.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Identifies imbalance zones where price moves without overlapping structure.
Filters gaps using ATR-based size conditions.
Visual shading is used to highlight imbalance areas.
These zones may represent inefficient price movement requiring further interaction.
Volume Profile & Point of Control (POC)
Builds a simplified volume profile over a configurable lookback window.
Determines the price level with the highest traded volume (POC).
POC is used as a reference for acceptance or rejection behavior.
Market Structure
Evaluates recent highs and lows to identify structure breaks.
Classifies directional structure as bullish, bearish, or neutral.
Structure is used as a directional filter rather than a trigger.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation
Optional higher-timeframe confirmation aligns lower-timeframe behavior with broader context.
Prevents analysis from relying on isolated timeframe conditions.
Session Filtering
1. Allows analysis to be limited to specific trading sessions.
2. Helps reduce signals during low-participation periods.
3. Session logic affects signal eligibility, not calculations.
Signal Logic
Signals are generated only when multiple independent conditions align, including:
Liquidity interaction
Order block presence
VWAP bias
Delta confirmation
Structure alignment
Volume participation
Optional higher-timeframe confirmation
Active trading session
Strong continuation conditions are also highlighted when price, volume, and participation remain aligned.
Signals represent confluence states, not trade instructions.
Dashboard Summary
A real-time dashboard summarizes:
VWAP bias and slope
CVD strength and direction
Delta behavior
Market structure state
Higher-timeframe context
Volume conditions
Liquidity pool counts
Session activity
This provides a high-level snapshot of market conditions without manual calculation.
Alerts are available for:
Institutional alignment conditions
Strong continuation pressure
Liquidity sweeps

SMC Academy [PhenLabs]📊 SMC Academy
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The SMC Academy indicator is a comprehensive educational tool designed to demystify Smart Money Concepts (SMC) for traders of all levels. Unlike standard indicators that simply print signals, this script uses a “Learning Phase” system that allows users to toggle between individual concepts—such as Market Structure, Liquidity, Imbalances, and Order Blocks—or view them all simultaneously. It lets you focus on one piece of the puzzle at a time.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Progressive Learning Modes: Toggle between 5 distinct phases to master concepts individually before using the Full Strategy Mode.
Educational Tooltips: Hover over labels to read detailed explanations of why a BOS, MSS, or Liquidity zone was identified.
Smart Filtering: Uses ATR and Volume integration to filter out low-quality Fair Value Gaps and weak Order Blocks.
HTF Dashboard: A built-in panel analyzes Higher Timeframe (4H) data to ensure you are trading in alignment with the broader trend.
🔧 Core Components
Market Structure Engine: Automatically detects Swing Highs and Lows to map out market direction using configurable swing lengths.
Liquidity Manager: Identifies unmitigated swing points that serve as Buy-Side (BSL) and Sell-Side (SSL) liquidity magnets.
Imbalance Detector: Highlights Fair Value Gaps (FVG) where price inefficiencies exist, using ATR thresholds to ignore noise.
Order Block Identifier: Locates the specific candles responsible for structure breaks, validated by volume analysis.
🔥 Key Features
Break of Structure (BOS): Automatically marks trend continuation signals with solid lines and color-coded labels.
Market Structure Shift (MSS): Identifies potential trend reversals when significant swing points are breached.
Dashboard Context: Displays the current trend direction and the 4H context directly on your chart.
Custom Alerts: Built-in alert conditions for structure breaks and new Order Blocks allow for automated tracking.
🎨 Visualization
Structure Lines: Solid lines indicate confirmed breaks (Green for Bullish, Red for Bearish).
Liquidity Zones: Dotted lines extending rightward indicate resting liquidity levels that price may target.
FVG Boxes: Shaded boxes highlight imbalance zones, automatically extending for a user-defined number of bars.
Dashboard: A clean, non-intrusive table in the top-right corner displays trend status and active mode.
📖 Usage Guidelines
Setting Categories
Learning Mode: Select from ‘1. Market Structure’ through ‘5. Full Strategy Mode’ to filter what appears on the chart.
Swing Detection Length: Default (5). Determines the sensitivity of the swing high/low detection.
Structure Break Type: Options (Close/Wick). Choose whether a candle close or just a wick is required to confirm a break.
Min FVG Size: Default (0.5 ATR). Filters out gaps smaller than this multiplier to reduce noise.
Filter Weak OBs by Volume: Default (True). Only highlights Order Blocks where volume exceeds the 20-period average.
✅ Best Use Cases
Educational Study: Isolate “Phase 1: Market Structure” to practice identifying trend changes without distraction.
Trend Following: Use “Phase 3: Imbalances” to find entry points within an established trend.
Reversal Trading: Combine “Phase 2: Liquidity” and “Phase 4: Order Blocks” to catch reversals at key levels.
⚠️ Limitations
Subjectivity: Market structure can be interpreted differently depending on the swing length settings used.
Ranging Markets: Like all trend-following concepts, false BOS/MSS signals may generate during choppy, sideways price action.
Repainting: While the signals are non-repainting once confirmed, the live candle may flash a signal before the close if “Close” mode is selected.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Interactive Learning: The inclusion of tooltip explanations transforms this from a simple tool into an active mentor.
Phase-Based Workflow: The ability to strip the chart back to basics at the click of a button is unique to the PhenLabs ecosystem.
🔬 How It Works
Swing Analysis: The script calculates pivot highs and lows based on your length input to define the structural landscape.
Break Validation: It checks if price crosses these pivot points to trigger BOS (Continuation) or MSS (Reversal) logic.
Volume Confirmation: For Order Blocks, it looks back inside the swing leg to find the specific candle responsible for the move, verifying it has significant volume.
💡 Note:
For the best experience, start in Phase 1 to calibrate your Swing Detection Length to the specific volatility of the asset you are trading before enabling Full Strategy Mode.
HD Trades📊 ICT Confluence Toolkit (FVG, OB, SMT)
This All-in-One indicator is designed for Smart Money Concepts (SMC) traders, providing visual confirmation and signaling for three critical Inner Circle Trader (ICT) tools directly on your chart: Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Order Blocks (OB), and Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence.
It eliminates the need to load multiple indicators, streamlining your analysis for high-probability setups.
🔑 Key Features
1. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Automatic Detection: Instantly highlights bullish (buy-side) and bearish (sell-side) imbalances using the standard three-candle pattern.
Real-Time Mitigation: Gaps are drawn until price trades into the FVG zone, at which point the indicator automatically "mitigates" and removes the box, ensuring your chart stays clean.
2. Order Blocks (OB)
Impulse-Based Logic: Identifies valid Order Blocks (the last opposing candle) confirmed by a strong, structure-breaking impulse move, quantified using an Average True Range (ATR) multiplier for dynamic sensitivity.
Mitigation Tracking: Bullish OBs are tracked until broken below the low, and Bearish OBs until broken above the high, distinguishing between active supply/demand zones.
3. SMT Divergence (Smart Money Technique)
Multi-Asset Comparison: Utilizes the Pine Script request.security() function to compare the swing structure of the current chart against a correlated asset (e.g., EURUSD vs. GBPUSD, or ES vs. NQ).
Signal Labels: Plots clear 🐂 SMT (Bullish) or 🐻 SMT (Bearish) labels directly on the chart when a divergence in market extremes is detected, signaling a potential reversal or continuation based on internal market weakness.
⚙️ Customization
All three components are toggleable and feature customizable colors and lookback periods, allowing you to fine-tune the indicator to your specific trading strategy and preferred timeframes.
Crucial Setup: For SMT Divergence to function, you must enter a correlated symbol (e.g., NQ1!, ES1!, or a related Forex pair) in the indicator settings.
