Automatic Order Block + Imbalance by D. BrigagliaThis script combines automatic orderblock and imbalance tracking.
Bullish OB - Blue
Bullish Imbalance - Green
Bearish OB - Red
Bearish Imbalance - Orange
Please note that the actual definitions of orderblock and imbalance are not respected in this script for the sake of simplicity. Scripts that are too complex may overfit some particular chart. Since there is no way to translate the actual ob and imb definitions into pinescript language, I decided to keep it simple.
Ideally, you want to see a bullish OB followed by buy side imbalance, or viceversa. OBs that are broken weakly are generally invalidated, ones that are broken strongly generally become breakers, and you can use them as good support/resistance levels.
Also, a good thing you can do when an OB and an imbalance match, is going in the lower timeframes and catching the structure reversal in the OB or imbalance zone. That may provide excellent RR trades. Always trade with OB that confirm the HTF trend.
Nothing in my content on tradingview is considerable investment advice.

SMM - Smart Money IndicatorHello Traders,
SMM – Smart Money Indicator is a Smart Money Concepts indicator that is meant to make your trading a bit easier and take the guess work away. Our mission is to save your time with already marking up the chart for you (all automatic). This indicator will help you spot the point of interests a.k.a. Order Blocks, Supply and Demand zones and Fair Value Gaps. Our mission is to create the best Smart Money Concepts indicator on the market. For that we would like to receive your guy’s feedback on it.
Smart Money refers to the capital that institutional investors, central banks, and other professionals or financial institutions control. Market Structure is the foundation of price action trading, understanding price action is fundamental to SMC .
Market Structure based of fractals – We are using fractal-based market structure since it’s way stronger than for example an Eliot wave. So, we only get the clearest break of structure (BoS- Trend continuation) and Change of Character (CHoCH- Possible change of trend)
Features
- Changing the break type to either only the body or body and the wick
- Period of looking back to determine structure (combined with the supply and demand zones)
Multiple Time frame Supply and Demand – Displayed typically as the last up/down candle before a big move in the opposite direction. Great zones to entry from on the lower time frame, also you can target previous demand/supply zones as potential take profit areas.
Features
- Multiple time frame
- Changing the amount of candles to calculate the zones.
- Option to remove mitigated zones / change color
- Extending the HTF Box to current time. (If not mitigated)
Order Blocks – What we use for our lower time frame zones to enter from. It’s basically the same as supply and demand but then on a lower time frame. Most likely once prices come into your higher time frame Supply and Demand zones, we would scale down to the lower time frames and then wait for our pattern to entry.
Features
- Extending the LTF Box to current time. (If not mitigated)
- Options to remove mitigated zones / change color
Fair Value Gaps - Is also known as an imbalance. An FVG is an imbalance of orders for instance, for sellers to complete their trades, there must be buyers and vice versa so when a market receives to many of one kind of order buys or sells, and not enough of the order’s counterpart. When the amount is not balanced and to many orders are put in for one direction, it creates an imbalance where price likes to get back too. We have 2 different options that shows you all the imbalances but also one that only shows the structure breaking imbalances which we see as the most important one.
Features
- Plotting all Fair Value Gaps
- Plotting only structure breaking Fair Value Gaps
Previous Day High and Low – Will mark up the previous day high and low what could indicate that if price breaks out of the previous day high that it will most likely trend upwards. If it breaks below, it will most likely trend down for the upcoming time.
- Showing only the recent previous day high and low
- Showing all the previous high and lows
- Show nothing
Alerts – We’ve made possible that you can also choose to receive an alert on your device once price comes in to one of the supply and demand zones. (Must place the alerts function into your alert management tab on trading view) Only works if you add the alert on when you are on the same time frame as your supply and demand zones.
You can also choose to receive alerts when a supply or demand zone has been created.
ICT Killzone [Forex Edition]This indicator show in different way the bank session teached by ICT in his channel (Asian Range, London Open, New York Open, London Close).
The user have the opportunity to change the visualization from a beacon to a box, and is possible to show the amount of pips of box range with the "info" check.
If something isn't clear comment below and I will answer as soon as possible.
Fair Value Gap [LuxAlgo]Fair value gaps (FVG) highlight imbalances areas between market participants and have become popular amongst technical analysts. The following script aims to display fair value gaps alongside the percentage of filled gaps and the average duration (in bars) before gaps are filled.
Users can be alerted when an FVG is filled using the alerts built into this script.
🔶 USAGE
In practice, FVG's highlight areas of support (bullish FVG) and resistances (bearish FVG). Once a gap is filled, suggesting the end of the imbalance, we can expect the price to reverse.
This approach is more contrarian in nature, users wishing to use a more trend-following approach can use the identification of FVG as direct signals, going long with the identification of a bullish FVG, and short with a bearish FVG.
🔹 Mitigation
By default, the script highlights the areas of only unmitigated FVG's. Users can however highlight the mitigation level of mitigated FVG's, that is the lower extremity of bullish FVG's and the upper extremity of bearish FVG's.
The user can track the evolution of a mitigated FVG's using the "Dynamic" setting.
🔹 Threshold
The gap height can be used to determine the degree of imbalance between buying and selling market participants. Users can filter fair value gaps based on the gap height using the "Threshold %" setting. Using the "Auto" will make use of an automatic threshold, only keeping more volatile FVG's.
🔶 DETAILS
We use the following rules for detecting FVG's in this script:
Bullish FVG
low > high(t-2)
close(t-1) > high(t-2)
(low - high(t-2)) / high(t-2) > threshold
Upper Bullish FVG = low
Lower Bullish FVG = high(t-2)
Bearish FVG
high < low(t-2)
close(t-1) < low(t-2)
(low(t-2) - high) / high < -threshold
Upper Bearish FVG = low(t-2)
Lower Bearish FVG = high
🔶 SETTINGS
Threshold %: Threshold percentage used to filter our FVG's based on their height.
Auto Threshold: Use the cumulative mean of relative FVG heights as threshold.
Unmitigatted Levels: Extent the mitigation level of the number of unmitigated FVG's set by the user.
Mitigation Levels: Show the mitigation levels of mitigated FVG's.
Timeframe : Timeframe of the price data used to detect FVG's.
ICT Sessions (Kill Zones)Inspired by the work of ICT (Inner Circle Trader - @ICT_MHuddleston)
What are ICT KillZones:
All ICT students know that certain moments of the day are more indicated to search for good frameworks. These moments are indicated like "Kill Zones".
The best kill zones to search for profittable tradings are during the London session and during the New York session.
How This Indicator Can Help You:
With this indicator you'll see plotted in the charts the London Kill Zone and the New York Kill Zone, you'll see exactly when they start and finish, so you'll be able to understand better the price action and recognize if there are ICT framework to trade. You'll also will see when the New York lunch hour happen (this moment is not favorable for searching frameworks) and you'll see also 2 very important moments of the day, the 8.30 New York Time and the 9.30 New York Time, infact in these 2 particular moments it is most likely that some very profittable framework will appear as there are alway important economic news released in these 2 hours.
Also you'll see the New York Midnight Open, that always forms a very important level for the day trading, you could see the New York Midnight open as a real opening for markets.
Why This Indicator:
I looked for indicators working with these concepts and I could not find one that offered the kill zones sections in the way are showed in my indicator, also they just had the kill zones without showing the 8.30 and 9.30 hours and without the Ney York midnight opening, and these are very important time frames for who works with ICT concepts.
About The Indicator:
In this indicator you'll have displayed:
The regular trading sessions displayed, that is: Asian Session, London Session, New York Session.
The London Kill Zone
The New York Kill Zone
The New York Midnight Open
The New York Lunch Hour
The 8:30 News Release Hour
The 9:30 News Release Hour
All these level can be adjusted and changed as you prefer.
Futures Exchange Sessions 3.0Description
The ultimate conclusion to the Futures Exchange Sessions 2.0 indicator. In version 3.0 the user gets full control of the start and end times of three separate dynamic boxes and one horizontal line. If the user wants to visually keep track of killzones, lunches, or any other time span in a trading day, version 3.0 will dynamically expand and keep track of price within the time specified by the user.
Inputs and Style
Everything about the three dynamic boxes and one horizontal line can but independently configured. Color, style, border, width can all be adjusted. In the Settings each box has a text box so the user can give each one a unique name.
Timezone
All of the start and end times are in EST. Additionally, each box and line need a dependent start of each day. This is controlled by a setting where the user can specify a timezone called Start Day Timezone which would be midnight of the respective timezone. In general if a box or line resides within a particular Session pick the corresponding timezone. If the users box/line fits in the Asian Session then choose Asia/Shanghai. If the box/line is within the London Session then choose Europe/London. And the same goes for the New York Session.
Special Notes
If start time is within one period of the Start Day Timezone in the Settings, then the line/box won't display
Boxes and time lines only display when timeframe is <= 30 minute
To turn off box text label set opacity to 0%

MTF fair value gap v2 thigh gaps yumwell load in 2 FVG indicators one for current chart then one for MTF of interest.
Higher timeframe FVGs are more important and can be used for bias or even targets for internal liquidity.
big thanks @shanxia for basically re-doing the FVGs into arrays hehehe..
Can now delete mitigated or change mitigated color..
I dont know who uses extensions but if you want to suffer in your private time then go ahead...
pre sure this is the sexiest FVG indicator validate me in the description pls
Market Structure Patterns (Nephew_Sam_)This market structure indicator plots HH/LL labels with a little twist - it can identify upto 14 custom patterns of your choice!
Indicator settings:
Pivot strength - highest or lowest point in a number of x left+right bars
Show - show zigzag lines, HHLL labels, Pattern Matches
Patterns - upto 14 patterns (7 bear, 7 bull) with custom label text
Styles - for labels and lines
Disclaimer
- Although 90% of this indicator is custom coded, I have to give credits to LonesomeTheBlue (www.tradingview.com) for his "Double Zig Zag with HHLL" indicator where I got the logic on how to plot the labels in real time.
- This indicator repaints labels in realtime (not historical candle)
Intraday rejection levels3 supports, 3 resistances and an equilibrium price per day displayed at 9am (GMT+2), calculated on the dynamic study of the market at its opening over a certain period that we could qualify as "first opening interventions"
Method: We are interested in the first reaction of the market when it discovers one of the levels.
The red and green zones (from levels R2 to R3) are the zones of rejections/daily overextensions with large RRs of which we will appreciate a rejection for the US opening (where the zones are more opaque, the Killzone!), because the session US is known to either accompany the London session or completely break the trend.
Equilibrium, on the other hand, is a retest zone that can be traded in several directions, ideal for capturing the first retracement / retest of a recently broken structure:
Activate "EL" to display an ideally early morning rejection area so levels can be scalped! They correspond to opportunistic areas above the high and below the low of a custom Asian session ignoring part of the London open - which I consider to be liquidity :):
FIRST SETUP: Confluence R1/R2 with the EL!
SECOND SETUP: The price does not frequent the R2/R3 zone during London but only during the killzone:
Anticipate rejection zones, put them in confluence to find the best opportunity!
Tips:
I'm only interested in the first reaction on these levels
You can measure the difference between R1 and EQ: on average on the EURUSD it must be 20 to 30 pips! Apart from these values, I deduce that the market is unbalanced: I lower my risk on my scalps and I am more cautious.
It is possible to use the previous day's levels to look for correlations
Ideally, the Asia range Custom should not take the high/low of the day before (see "LIquidity maps" indicator on our profile for optimal use)
As an option you can display the standard pivot, and activate the "crypto" mode to be able to use it on your favorite crypto :)
SKYROCKET | CBDR RangeIt will visualize ranges considering the distance of the high and low of the range.
Directional ExpectancyThe Directional Expectancy tool is a volatility based indicator, It is a Directional Correlation to the Volatility given by the Historical Volatility Percentile.
We calculate this correlation function then visually color plot it across a moving average of the HVP.
Use this tool to not only gauge the Historical Volatility that is present as well as the Directional Expectancy of the volatility and price!

Futures Exchange Sessions 2.0Description
Successor to Futures Exchange Sessions indicator. Completely rebuilt code from the ground up. Every feature has been redesigned and refactored to be the most beneficial while allowing for complete configuration by the user.
This indicator displays Futures Sessions as live boxes that expand dynamically as price moves over the time interval. These boxes make liquidity levels extremely easy to spot and visualize. It helps the user identify market structure and develop their own bias of price action. Everything about the Session boxes can be configured. Box color, border color, border style, and border width are all individually controllable. Each Future Session can be turned on or off at any time. Also, each box has their own text label (Asian Session, London Session, New York Session) and this text can be moved around the box, change color, and change size.
Previous days highs and lows (major liquidity levels) are always important to the futures trader. This indicator now allows the user to individually display the three previous days highs and low levels as lines with optional label. Each line can be independently toggled on or off and like always, every conceivable customization option is available to the user. And the labels can be moved to the right (via the Input Settings) to allow unobstructed views of candles.
The midnight EST open and 8:30 AM EST open horizontal lines (developed by the Inner Circle Trader) are returning in this indicator. But the biggest improvement is that the lines stop at the current bar or the last bar of the trading day. Additionally, the time lines are displayed on previous days so the user can easily see how the candles reacted to these important times of the day.
The Session boxes and the horizontal time lines now can be set to only display a certain number of day back. If the user wants just to see Session boxes for the previous day only, they can do that. If the user wants to see the last 15 days of boxes or lines it is very easy to increase the days back in the settings. Currently, the max days back is 80 calendar days.
Additional Images
Easily visualize and understand price action across time
Everything is customizable so the user can easily match this indicator to their color preferences
Special Notes
To turn off box session text set opacity to 0%
Boxes and horizontal time lines only display when timeframe is <= 30 minute

SIVE 1.0 [Soldi]SIVE 1.0
What is SIVE?
SIVE stands for Systematic Institutional Volatility Expansion, SIVE uses a variety of different statistical indicators to gauge volatility along with trend correlation and other measures to filter and define a price move. This system was originally set out to redefine what a 'Trend Following System' could be; we achieved more than just that. We had created what is considered to be one of the first retail quantitative trading system, that incorporates trend following mechanics as well as trend reversal techniques. All while being aligned/correlated to trend and volatility . Something truly powerful to put into the hands of the every day trader, demystifying what quant trading can be while easily presenting it in a way where even your mom could learn how to use the system without being overwhelmed.
What makes this different from any other trading system?
SIVE raises the bar on what traditional indicators and trading systems can do, traditionally you have lagging indicators that only tell you what happened in the past with no correlation to the market or what can happen in the future. Really providing little to no statistical value, yet completely idolized by the retail world. Where SIVE exceeds these systems is all in the math and the application of those formulas to the time/price, finding the synchronicities to exploit for profits as well as exploiting the high probabilities of non-random events. How we do it? well that's in the secret crabby patty formula.
Where we are now, and where we plan to go
SIVE as it stands right now is the very first iteration of the retail quantitative trading system, it is performing exceptionally well but we aren't take that as our standard as we want to always raise the bar. as it stands, we are already working on the updates to come that will dwarf anything we've done in the past.
Our goal with SIVE is to be able to provide an easy to learn and easy to profit trading system that will provide the retail public with a trust worthy system to use. In the future our updates will carry heavier weight on key aspects like Risk to Reward, Win rates and capturing those big parabolic movements that everyone dreams of. Far fetched? for the traditional indicator junkies, but for a Quant it is just a matter of time.
What does it perform best on?
Simply put, yes... We set out to create this to be used for any trading instrument and any timeframe. Intraday timeframes have been shown to give more trades and typically higher reward trades as your able to execute with a high degree of accuracy 1:2 is very modest and can easily be achieved but we have also seen so so many trades run higher than 1:10 and even 1:20!! but as you already may know the market doesn't always give those favorable conditions to trade that high of a Risk to Reward all the time.
Stocks, Crypto, Forex, Metals, Energies, Indices, etc. are all tradeable with SIVE
Log OscillatorThe Log Oscillator measures the mean of logarithmic returns, given this data you can assume market expectancy in returns of the mean. When seeing positive Means you can assume positive returns will follow positive returns if positive autocorrelation is present. Vice versa for the other event of negative returns.
How you can effectively use this indicator and oscillator is by looking at a higher time frame and if the oscillator is positive, you can go to a lower timeframe and try to trade in that direction of the market as the expected returns are positive in nature.
You can also spot trend divergences very well as the trend continues but the returns are dropping that means the returns are mean reverting and can have a potential to flip to the other side

Price Action All In One IndicatorIf you are the one who is "Price Action" style & does not want to use many indicators or complex indicators or you are an ICT (The Inner Circle Trader)
student or ICT charter, this simple beautiful All In One Indicator is right for you.
The indicator has the following functions.
TIME ZONE SETTING
The default timezone is New York Time GMT-4, if you leave the time zone setting blank, it will use the symbol timezone. Note that the trading time changes with one hour delay in winter. so if you just trade forex, and leave the time zone setting blank, TradingView will adjust the symbol timezone automatically for you or don't forget to change the timezone setting GMT-4 or GMT-5 depending on daylight saving time.
STATISTIC PANEL
You can choose which panel to show through settings.
Session Info Panel : pips info of ADR, Asian, London, and New York sessions.
Trend Panel : showing trend (up/down) of
5m/15m/1h/4h/D/W time frames (TF)
4MA (default values: SMA with lengths: 20–50–100–200)
Money Management Panel : in trading, money management is very important. Just put the % risk, & stop loss value below, the indicator will calculate a suitable size/amount for each trade.
Size by Lots: input stop loss in pips
Size by Units: input stop loss in % (of price)
(*)Units size is calculated by % stop loss & current bar close price. You have to determine a stop-loss price to convert to % stop loss by yourself.
TIME SEPARATORS
We can choose which time separators we want to display. The indicator has 5 options: Anchor Time/Day/Week/Month/Quarter. Of course, we can choose to show just one or all 5 of them.
With Anchor Time you can choose which time you want to draw a vertical line for better timing analysis. This can show up to 2 Anchor Time lines. The default values are 00:00 (New York Midnight Opening) and 08:30 (New York Session Opening). You also have an option to show the past lines or not.
About Day Separator, cause TradingView has supported Session Breaks in Setting but if you don't like to use it or when enabling, it distracts you, you can use mine. My favorite trading dates are Tuesday & Wednesday.
PRICE LEVELS
For intraday trading, the high/low/close of the previous day, the previous week, ADR (default period is 5) are very important key levels. You can choose which one you like to show for better analysis. Of course, you can change the color & style of the lines. This is also my favorite indicator.
This indicator also has an option to show up to 2 price lines at a specific time, you can choose the price type (high/low/close/open) that you want to display. The default time values are:
Specific Time 1: 0:00. (New York Midnight Opening Price)
Specific Time 2: 8:30 am. (New York Session Opening Price)
ACCUMULATION ZONE
The market tends to reprice the higher/lower to the old high/low or imbalance/fair value price to promote buy/sell stops or to provide smart money pricing for long/short entries. Typically, it redistributes quickly and you must learn to anticipate them at key levels intraday. Weak short/long holders will be squeezed in the retracement.
Except for the open price, the price changes continuously until the closing time, so the accumulation area can also be changed in real-time, but if you combine it with other information when analyzing, you can predict/determine whether the zone has been established or not with high probability. In short, price needs time to be accumulated, I usually don't pay attention to this daily zone till London open/close or New York sessions
Not only daily zone, but the indicator also supports higher timeframes accumulation zone from
SESSION & STD
There are 3 sessions: Asian, London, New York. The default values are below (New York Time).
Asian: 19:00 ~ 00:00
London Open (London KillZone): 01:00 ~ 05:00
New York Open (New York KillZone): 07:00 ~ 10:00
If you do not want to show the label, just leave the label values blank or change them to whatever you want.
This is one of my favorite functions. I use it on 15m, 30m, 1h TF for Forex intraday trading. My favorite trading sessions are London Open & New York Open.
You also can choose to show or not Standard Deviations (STD). The default values are set for Asian Range STD and max STD levels can be shown are 5. I use the following 3 types of STD (New York Time):
CBDR (Central Bank Deviations) STD: 14:00 ~ 20:00
Flout STD: 15:00 ~00:00
Asian Range STD: 19:00 ~ 00:00
LOOKBACK HIGH/LOW/MID
Can show high/low/mid of the data ranges on the daily/4h chart. The default values are:
- 20–40–60 days back from today for daily TF.
- 30–60–90 bars back from the latest bar for 4h TF.
The default anchor bar for calculating the lookback is the latest one but with:
- 4h TF: we can change the lookback from the 1st day of the week.
- Daily TF: we can change the lookback from the 1st day of the month.
The indicator also has options showing the high/low/mid (equilibrium level) lines for better analysis. Especially, on daily TF, we have the option that can show up to 4 lines (25% for each one) of the data range.
Of course, you can change the colors or the style of the high/low/mid lines.
The lookback can be shown on the lower TFs for better detection when the market structure is shifted.
MAGIC BARS
Fractal bar : The bar's color is changed when the divergence occurs between the price & RSI. You can change the RSI period (default value is 14) & RSI source. (open/high/low/close,…)
Imbalance bar or liquidity void or fair value gap - whatever you call it. This is my favorite indicator when trading on all TFs.You can choose to extend the last n imbalance bars if you like in the settings. I make sure I covered all cases of imbalance/fair value gap.
OLD HIGH/LOW
First, this function is not used as the common Support & Resistance that retail traders usually use, so I call it Old High/Low. I usually use it in 2 ways:
Detect the next buy/sell stops that Market Makers aim to manipulate.
Detect whether market structure shifted or not (Break of structure)
In settings you can:
Set the period to detect high/low levels, the default value is 10. My other favorite values are 6 & 2.
On a lower time frame, you might want to set it to a large number to remove noise.
On a higher time frame, a small number is enough, I think.
Choose the numbers of the last lines you want to show on your chart.
Of course, the style of lines can be changed easily.
TRENDLINES
A very simple trendline with default pivot left strength is 10.
By default, trendline uses high/low price but you have the "Using close price" option.
LINEAR REGRESSION CHANNEL
The Linear Regression Channel is a three-line technical indicator used to analyze the upper and lower limits of an existing trend. It is a statistical tool used to predict the future from past data and is used to determine trend direction or when prices may be overextended.
You can choose
To fill the background or not
To show inner/outer lines or not
To change the colors/line styles of upper zone, lower zone, upper lines, lower lines, midline
DIRECTION BOX
Working on all TFs, this looks like the same with lookback function but if you would like to display them in a box for easily focusing/comparing with other symbols or for detecting divergence in a specific period. The indicator also has a setting to show or hide lines connecting between lows or highs.
Another example of how I use High/Low connecting lines to detect divergence between S&P 500 and NASDAQ 100.
ZIG ZAG
Can show up to 2 ZigZag lines.
This is suitable for traders who have difficulty in detecting key levels (recent high/low) of the prices to confirm market structure or just for drawing Fibonacci easily at those levels.
MA (Moving Average)
I believe that this is one of the most used indicators for every trader. There are 5 types of MA to choose from: EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, SMMA(RMA).
This can show up to 4 MAs. You can choose the source (close/high/low,…) for each one. My favorite values are 34 & 89 EMA.
This indicator also supports MA Bands. You can select which MA you want to display the bands, and the "width" of the bands can be changed via the settings.
WATERMARK
It's just a simple function but I think it's very useful for those who want to add Copyright info to the chart, to prevent others from copying it.
Others/known issues/limitations
In forex or stock (things that are traded only on weekdays), TradingView's does not include the latest bars till Monday so the Day Separator cannot fill that space. Because TradingView deals with those bars as Sunday's ones so I set the color of Sunday the same as Friday for good UI/UX. On Crypto charts, the indicator shows without problems.
If you see "Internal server study error", please try closing the current TradingView tab in your browser and reopening it in a new tab. The error will disappear.
Because TradingView does not provide any detailed error information when such "general error" occurs. It's very difficult to detect which function is causing this error or is there something that caused TradingView "overloaded" through a long time running/loading on that tab? Honestly, I don't know exactly the cause, but in my experience, this error often occurs in the following cases:
When you have the TradingView Tab open for hours. In my case, I usually leave TradingView tab open overnight & when I come back the next day, this error might appear. (I'm a Mac user & I almost never shut down my Mac)
When you change settings too many times, especially settings of drawing objects like line width in a using session, it might cause this error.
So, after changing the setting or when you come back for the next trade, please save & close that TradingView tab, and then open a new one, everything will work fine.
You can see the images below that show I have tested my indicator from 1-minute time frame, enabled all functions, change every setting to max values & everything still works fine.
ICT Session Killzone Boxes & DeviationsICT Killzone Sessions Boxes & Deviations is a convenience indicator that marks out past and future ICT killzones for Asia, London, and New York, London Close and CBDR.
The boxes highlights the highest and lowest candle opens of that session/killzone, which is what the deviations are based on. Two lines mark out the highest high and lowest low of that session.
This indicator also includes New York midnight opening price and a vertical divider showing you that time.
Future killzones are also marked out.
All times are set to GMT-4 so these boxes should work across most exchanges. Times and code can be changed if a few don't match up.
Included are week of day labels for your convenience.
For those who are unfamiliar, ICT Killzones are optimal times to look for trades during or before a session, often providing entry for trades with orderblock tests, FVG fills or stophunts.
Please note: This indicator only works well on 1HR timeframe and below. The default max timeframe setting is set to 15min, which can be changed in the menu.
There may be some bugs so please highlight anything you find in the comments below :)
Shout out to @Ryazn for all the ideas!
ICT - IPDA BoxesICT - IPDA Boxes indicator encapsulate important (TRUE DAY) time zones based on ICT concepts.
Standard settings will plot True Day, CBDR, Asian Range, London and NY Open Kill-Zones. It is designed to keep a minimalistic and clean look for your charts using TradingView's Dark theme, but you can adjust any specific line or background color transparency of your choice. If you want to add other session (like NY close for example), just paste again the indicator to your chart and set the correct session duration and colors of your preference. You can log, study, backtest and use it for your analysis if you are familiar with ICT concepts.
Check indicator time lines and adjust session times for your own TradingView's personal settings it before using.
ANY fault, bug or mismatch in this script is only mine and I will be glad to correct it if you let me know.
