7 hari lalu

🧠 Overview

This indicator combines multiple Moving Averages (MA) with visual price action elements such as Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Swing Points. It provides traders with real-time insight into trend direction, structural breaks, and potential entry zones based on institutional price behavior.


⚙️ Features

1. Multi MA Visualization (SMA & EMA)

- Plots short-, mid-, and long-term moving averages

- Fully customizable: MA type (SMA/EMA) and length per MA

- Dynamic color coding: green for bullish, red for bearish (based on close >/< MA)


2. Fair Value Gaps (FVG) Detection

Detects bullish and bearish imbalances using multiple logic types:

- Same Type: Last 3 candles move in the same direction

- Twin Close: Last 2 candles close in the same direction

- All: Shows all valid FVGs regardless of pattern

Gaps are marked with semi-transparent yellow boxes

Useful for identifying potential liquidity voids and retest zones


3. Swing Highs and Lows

- Automatically identifies major swing points

- Customizable sensitivity (strength setting)

Marked with subtle colored dots for structure identification or support/resistance mapping


📈 Use Cases

- Trend Identification: Visualize momentum on multiple timeframes

- Liquidity Mapping: Spot potential retracement zones using FVGs

- Confluence Building: Combine MA slope, FVG zones, and swing points for refined setups

🛠️ Customizable Settings

- Moving average type and length for each MA

- FVG logic selection and color

- Swing point strength

Nota Keluaran

🧠 What does this script do?

This indicator brings together three popular price action tools — Fair Value Gaps, Multi-MAs, and Swing Points — into one cohesive framework. It is designed to support discretionary traders in identifying trend bias, institutional activity zones, and market structure shifts.


🔧 How components work together

🔶 1. Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
- Highlights potential institutional imbalances between candles
- Used as retracement entries, especially when formed during key market shifts

Use Case: When price breaks through the 50-period MA, the resulting FVG is often retested this is where orders are placed.

📈 2. Multi Moving Averages
- Customizable MAs (SMA/EMA) for short-, mid-, and long-term bias
- Colored dynamically based on price positioning

Use Case:
- Confirm trend direction (e.g., only long above MA200)
- Identify momentum shifts (e.g., MA crossovers)
- Act as dynamic support/resistance — especially the MA50

🌀 3. Swing Highs & Lows
- Detects structure points based on user-defined strength
- Visualizes market structure and potential liquidity zones

Use Case (community-driven): Identifying breakout levels after price consolidates or sweeps prior swing points

📋 How to Use
✅ Primary Setup (FVG + MA50)

Wait for price to break through MA50

Look for a newly formed FVG in that impulse

Set retracement orders at the FVG zone

Filter with overall MA200 trend

See example screenshot: https://www.tradingview.com/x/2X3ho4d6/

✅ Alternative Uses

Use MA crossovers as trend reversal signals

Use swing highs/lows to build breakout or liquidity sweep strategies

Confluence = higher probability (FVG near MA + swing level)

💡 Why it's original
Custom FVG detection logic (not copy-pasted from libraries)

Visually clear: no noise, all components support structure-first trading

Built from a discretionary trader’s perspective — not a fixed strategy bot

Can evolve into multiple use cases (scalping, breakout, retrace entries)

🔔 Use it as a visual toolkit to guide discretionary setups. Works best on lower timeframes (3–15 min) with HTF context (1H–4H).
