FunkyQuokka's $ Volume💡 Why $ Volume Matters
Share volume alone is a half-truth — 1M shares traded at $5 isn’t the same as 1M shares at $500. That’s where dollar volume steps in, offering a far more accurate view of institutional interest, breakout validity, liquidity zones and overall trader conviction.
📈 Features:
Clean histogram of dollar volume (close × volume)
Orange line showing customizable average $ volume
K/M/B formatting for axis scale (no huge ugly numbers)
Minimal design to blend into a multi-pane layout
⚙️ Inputs:
Tweakable average length – defaults to 20

Range Breakout Signals [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script detects range-bound market conditions and breakout signals using a combination of volatility compression and volume imbalance analysis. It identifies zones where price consolidates within a defined range and highlights potential breakout points with visual markers. Traders can use this to spot market transitions from ranging to trending phases, aiding in decision-making for breakout strategies.
CONCEPTS
The script measures volatility by comparing the ratio of the simple moving average (SMA) of price movements to their median value. When volatility drops below a threshold, the script assumes a range-bound market. It then tracks the cumulative volume of buying and selling pressure to assess breakout strength. The approach is based on the idea that market consolidation often precedes strong moves, and volume distribution can provide clues on the breakout direction.
FEATURES
Range Detection : Uses a volatility filter to identify low-volatility zones and marks them on the chart with shaded boxes.
Volume Imbalance Analysis : Evaluates cumulative up and down volume over a confirmation period to assess directional bias.
Breakout Signals : When price exits a detected range, the script plots breakout markers. A ▲ symbol indicates a bullish breakout, and a ▼ symbol indicates a bearish breakout. Additional "+" markers indicate strong volume imbalance favoring the breakout direction.
Adaptive Timeframe Volume Analysis : The script dynamically adjusts its volume calculation based on the chart’s timeframe, ensuring reliable signal generation across different trading conditions.
Alerts : Notifies traders when a new range is detected or when a breakout occurs, allowing for automated monitoring.
USAGE
Traders can use this script to identify potential trade setups by entering positions when price breaks out of a detected range. For breakout confirmation, traders can look at volume imbalance cues—bullish breakouts with strong buying volume may indicate sustained moves, while weak volume breakouts may lead to false signals. This script is particularly useful for breakout traders, range traders seeking to fade breakouts, and those looking to automate trade alerts in volatile markets.

Global M2 Money Supply (USD) GrowthThe Global M2 Growth indicator evaluates the total liquid money supply, including cash, checking deposits, and assets that can be easily converted to cash. It reflects changes in global liquidity by tracking year-on-year (YoY) changes in the Global M2 money supply rather than its absolute value. This approach highlights the velocity of liquidity expansion or contraction, offering a clearer understanding of its correlation with asset performance, such as Bitcoin.
How It Works
When the Global M2 money supply expands, it reflects an increase in available liquidity. This often leads to an influx of capital into higher-yielding and riskier assets like Bitcoin, equities, and commodities. Conversely, when M2 contracts, liquidity tightens, leading to declines in the values of these assets.
An essential insight is that Bitcoin's price is not immediately affected by changes in M2. Research shows a lag of approximately 56-60 days (around two months) between liquidity changes and Bitcoin's price movements. Shifting the liquidity data forward by this period improves the correlation between Global M2 and Bitcoin performance.
How to Use
Track Global M2 YoY Change: Focus on liquidity's yearly change to identify trends. Rapid increases in liquidity often signify favorable conditions for Bitcoin and other risk assets to rise, while contractions often predict price declines or consolidation phases.
Account for the Lag Effect: Incorporate the two-month lag into your analysis to predict Bitcoin's potential moves more accurately. For instance, a recent resurgence in liquidity growth could signal a Bitcoin rally within the next two months.
Use as a Macro Indicator: Monitor liquidity trends alongside other economic indicators and asset performance metrics to build a more comprehensive investment framework.
By tracking these dynamics, traders and investors can better anticipate Bitcoin's trajectory and make informed decisions.
Pipnotic Supply and DemandDescription
The Pipnotic Supply and Demand Indicator was originally developed in 2011 for another trading platform and is currently being rewritten for TradingView due to user demand. It is a powerful tool designed for traders who utilize supply and demand concepts in technical analysis. This script automatically detects and highlights key supply and demand zones (as well as buy and sell zones) on the chart, enabling traders to identify potential reversal points, trend continuations, and price imbalances. We will continue to actively develop this indicator for existing and this new version for TradingView.
How It Works
The indicator follows a structured methodology to analyse price action and identify high-probability supply and demand zones:
Zone Identification:
Detects accumulation and distribution phases using volatility and range conditions.
Identifies zones where price imbalances occur, signalling potential trading opportunities.
Expansion and Confirmation:
Assesses whether the price expands away from a zone significantly enough to validate it as a supply or demand zone.
Uses a risk-to-reward ratio to ensure zones meet predefined trading criteria, adjustable via the configuration.
Visualization and Management:
Plots supply (bearish) and demand (bullish) zones directly on the chart.
Labels the percentage of expansion from the zone, giving traders insights into the strength of the imbalance.
Updates zones dynamically, marking tested and consumed levels and preventing outdated information from cluttering the chart.
Key Features & Inputs
Customizable Zone Display: Traders can adjust the maximum number of supply and demand zones shown on the chart.
Dynamic Volatility Sampling: Uses the ATR (Average True Range) to adapt to changing market conditions.
Flexible Risk Management: Allows traders to define a minimum zone size and a risk-to-reward ratio for filtering zones.
Enhanced Visualization:
Adjustable colours for bullish and bearish zones.
Configurable border width for zone clarity.
Optional display of consumed zones to avoid redundant signals, but to also identify price sensitive zones on the flip side of the book when zones are consumed.
Swing Significance Detection: Enables boxing of significant price swings to refine the accuracy of identified zones.
Benefits of Using the Pipnotic Supply and Demand Indicator
Automates Supply and Demand Analysis: Eliminates the need for manual zone drawing, saving time and reducing subjectivity.
Enhances Trade Decision-Making: By providing precise entry and exit points based on supply and demand principles, traders can optimize their strategies.
Adapts to Market Conditions: The indicator dynamically adjusts to price movements, ensuring relevant zones are displayed.
Works Across All Timeframes: Suitable for scalping, swing trading, and long-term investing.
Compatible with Multiple Trading Strategies: Can be used alongside trend-following, breakout, and reversal strategies for improved trade confirmation.
MTF Fractals [RunRox]🔽 MTF Fractals is a powerful indicator designed to visualize fractals from multiple timeframes directly on your chart, highlight liquidity sweeps at these fractal levels, and provide several additional features we’ll cover in detail below.
We created this indicator because we couldn’t find a suitable tool that met our specific needs on TradingView. Therefore, we decided to develop a valuable indicator for the entire TradingView community, combining simplicity and versatility.
⁉️ WHAT IS A FRACTALS?
In trading, a fractal is a technical analysis pattern composed of five consecutive candles, typically highlighting local market turning points. Specifically, a fractal high is formed when a candle’s high is higher than the highs of the two candles on either side, whereas a fractal low occurs when a candle’s low is lower than the lows of the two adjacent candles on both sides.
Traders use fractals as reference points for identifying significant support and resistance levels, potential reversal areas, and liquidity zones within price action analysis. Below is a screenshot illustrating clearly formed fractals on the chart.
📙 FRACTAL FORMATION
Here’s how fractals form depending on your chosen setting (3, 5, 7, or 9):
▶️ 3-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher (for highs) or lower (for lows) than one candle on each side.
▶️ 5-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher or lower than two candles on both sides.
▶️ 7-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher or lower compared to the three candles on each side.
▶️ 9-bar fractal – forms similarly but requires four candles on each side, making the fractal significantly more reliable and robust.
A higher number of bars ensures stronger fractal levels, highlighting more significant potential reversal points on the chart.
Now that we’ve covered the theory behind fractal formation, let’s explore the indicator’s functionality in more detail.
Below, I’ll explain each feature clearly and illustrate how you can effectively utilize this indicator in your trading.
🕐 MULTI-TIMEFRAME FRACTALS
We realized that displaying fractals only from the current timeframe isn’t always convenient, so we’ve introduced Multi-Timeframe Fractals into this indicator.
Now you can easily display fractals from higher timeframes directly on your current chart, providing you with broader market context and clearer trading signals.
Fractals from Current Timeframe – Fractals identified directly on the chart’s current timeframe.
Fractals from Higher Timeframes – Fractals sourced from higher timeframes and displayed clearly on your current chart for enhanced market perspective.
📈 FRACTAL LINES
Since fractals represent areas of high liquidity, we’ve added an option to extend fractal levels horizontally as Fractal Lines across your chart.
This feature allows you to clearly visualize critical liquidity areas from higher timeframes, directly on your current timeframe chart, as demonstrated in the screenshot below.
With this approach, you can clearly visualize significant fractal levels from higher timeframes directly on your current chart - for example, projecting fractals from the 1-hour (1H) timeframe onto a 3-minute (3m) chart. ✅ This helps you easily identify critical liquidity areas and potential reversal zones without the need to switch between multiple timeframes.
💰 LIQUDITY SWEEP (LIQUDITY GRAB)
To enhance your trading experience, we’ve introduced a feature that clearly identifies liquidity sweeps of fractal levels.
A Liquidity Sweep occurs when a candle closes beyond a fractal line, leaving a wick that pierces through it, signaling that liquidity has been collected at this level.
Below, you’ll find two examples illustrating this functionality:
▶️ Fractal lines from the current timeframe
▶️ Fractal lines projected from higher timeframes
The first example illustrates liquidity being swept from fractals on the current timeframe .
Here, the candle clearly closes beyond the fractal line, leaving a wick through it. This indicates a liquidity sweep at the fractal level, visually highlighting a potential reversal or continuation opportunity directly on your chart.
In the second example, fractals from the higher timeframe are projected onto your current chart.
When a candle on your current timeframe closes beyond an HTF fractal line - leaving a wick through this level - the indicator highlights it clearly. This signals to traders a potential reversal zone, indicating that liquidity has been swept, and price may reverse or significantly react from this area.
You can also enable the display of additional labels on the chart. These labels clearly mark liquidity sweeps at fractal levels, making it easier to visually identify potential reversal points directly on your chart.
⚙️ SETTINGS
Below are the indicator settings with detailed explanations for each parameter.
🔷 Bars in Fractal – Number of candles to the right and left required to form a fractal.
🔷 Fractal Timeframe – Select the timeframe from which you want to display fractals on the current chart.

Liquidity Depth [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script visualizes market liquidity by identifying key price levels where significant volume has transacted. It highlights zones of high buying and selling interest, helping traders understand where liquidity is accumulating and how price may respond to these areas. By dynamically tracking volume at highs and lows, the script builds a real-time liquidity profile, making it a powerful tool for identifying potential support and resistance levels.
CONCEPTS
Liquidity depth analysis helps traders determine how price interacts with supply and demand at different levels. The script processes historical volume data to distinguish between high-liquidity and low-liquidity zones. It assigns transparency levels to plotted lines , ensuring that more relevant liquidity areas stand out visually. The script adds a profile to show the depth of liquidity (derived from historical volume data) for levels above and below the current price
FEATURES
Liquidity Levels: Tracks liquidity levels based on volume concentration at price high and lows.
Volume-Based Transparency: More significant liquidity levels are displayed with higher visibility, showing their significance.
Interpolation: interpolates the bullish and bearish liquidity depth at a user defined range away from the price, helping in comparing the liquidity amounts between bullish and bearish.
Depth Profile: Allows traders to visualize depth of liquidity in a more quantitative and clearer way than the liquidity levels/list]
USAGE
This indicator is best used to track liquidity levels and potential price reaction areas. Traders can adjust the Liquidity Lookback setting to analyze past liquidity levels over different historical periods. The Profile Resolution setting controls the granularity of liquidity depth visualization, with higher values providing more detail. The script can be applied across different timeframes, from intraday scalping to swing trading analysis. The plotted liquidity zones provide traders with insights into where price may encounter strong support, resistance, or potential liquidity-driven reversals.
1H/3m Concept [RunRox]🕘 1H/3m Concept is a versatile trading methodology based on liquidity sweeps from fractal points identified on higher timeframes, followed by price reversals at these key moments.
Below, I will explain this concept in detail and provide clear examples demonstrating its practical application.
⁉️ WHAT IS A FRACTALS?
In trading, a fractal is a technical analysis pattern composed of five consecutive candles, typically highlighting local market turning points. Specifically, a fractal high is formed when a candle’s high is higher than the highs of the two candles on either side, whereas a fractal low occurs when a candle’s low is lower than the lows of the two adjacent candles on both sides.
Traders use fractals as reference points for identifying significant support and resistance levels, potential reversal areas, and liquidity zones within price action analysis. Below is a screenshot illustrating clearly formed fractals on the chart.
📌 ABOUT THE CONCEPT
The 1H/3m Concept involves marking Higher Timeframe (HTF) fractals directly onto a Lower Timeframe (LTF) chart. When a liquidity sweep occurs at an HTF fractal level, we remain on the same LTF chart (since all HTF fractals are already plotted on this lower timeframe) and wait for a clear Market Structure Shift (MSS) to identify our potential entry point.
Below is a schematic illustration clearly demonstrating how this concept works in practice.
Below is another 💡 real-chart example , showing liquidity in the form of a 1H fractal, swept by a rapid impulse move. Immediately afterward, a clear Market Structure Shift (MSS) occurs, signaling a potential entry point into the trade.
Another example is shown below, where we see our hourly fractal, from which price clearly reacts, providing an opportunity to search for an entry point.
As illustrated on the chart, the fractal levels from the higher timeframe are clearly displayed, but we’re working directly on the 5-minute chart. This allows us to remain on one timeframe without needing to switch back and forth between charts to spot such trading setups.
🔍 MTF FRACTALS
This concept can be applied across various HTF-LTF timeframe combinations. Although our examples illustrate 1H fractals used on a 5-minute chart, you can effectively utilize many other timeframe combinations, such as:
30m HTF fractals on 1m chart
1H HTF fractals on 3m chart
4H HTF fractals on 15m chart
1D HTF fractals on 1H chart
The key idea behind this concept is always the same: identify liquidity at fractal levels on the higher timeframe (HTF), then wait for a clear Market Structure Shift (MSS) on the lower timeframe (LTF) to enter trades.
⚙️ SETTINGS
🔷 Trade Direction – Select the preferred trading direction (Long, Short, or Both).
🔷 HTF – Choose the higher timeframe from which fractals will be displayed on the current chart.
🔷 HTF Period – Number of candles required on both sides of a fractal candle (before and after) to confirm fractal formation on the HTF.
🔷 Current TF Period – Sensitivity to the impulse that sweeps liquidity, used for identifying and forming the MSS line.
🔷 Show HTF – Enable or disable displaying HTF fractal lines on your chart. You can also customize line style and color.
🔷 Max Age (Bars) – Number of recent bars within which fractals from the selected HTF will be displayed.
🔷 Show Entry – Enable or disable displaying the MSS line on the chart.
🔷 Enable Alert – Activates TradingView alerts whenever the MSS line is crossed.
You can also enable 🔔 alerts, which notify you whenever price crosses the MSS line. This significantly simplifies the process of identifying these setups on your charts. Simply configure your preferred timeframes and wait for notifications when the MSS line is crossed.
🔶 We greatly appreciate your feedback and suggestions for improving the indicator!
Liquidity Imbalance Index (Li2)How to Use the Liquidity Imbalance Index (Li2)
The Liquidity Imbalance Index (Li2) is designed to track market liquidity and identify significant imbalances between buyers and sellers. Here's how to effectively use this indicator in your trading:
Understanding the Main Components
1. Liquidity Delta Histogram/Line:
- Shows the difference between buy and sell liquidity
- Green bars/line: Buying pressure dominates
- Red bars/line: Selling pressure dominates
- The intensity of color shows the strength of the imbalance
2. Threshold Lines:
- Upper (green) threshold: Marks significant buy pressure
- Lower (red) threshold: Marks significant sell pressure
- Neutral zone: Area between the dotted lines where neither buyers nor sellers dominate
3. Liquidity Zones (circles shown on top/bottom):
- Green circles on upper threshold: Historical bull zones (significant buying interest)
- Red circles on lower threshold: Historical bear zones (significant selling interest)
- These zones require multiple hits, consecutive signals, and optionally volume confirmation
Trading Strategies
For Trend Trading
1. Look for when the Liquidity Delta crosses above the upper threshold for bullish signals
2. Look for when the Liquidity Delta crosses below the lower threshold for bearish signals
3. Especially powerful when crossing occurs with acceleration (darker histogram colors)
For Support and Resistance
1. Identify where the significant bull/bear zones appear (green/red circles)
2. These often align with important price levels where orders cluster
3. Use these zones as potential reversal or confirmation points
For Divergence
1. Watch for price making new highs/lows while liquidity shows the opposite
2. Divergence between price and liquidity can signal potential reversals
Volume Confirmation
1. Pay attention to volume-confirmed signals (small circles at zero line)
2. These indicate stronger conviction behind the liquidity imbalance
Optimal Settings
- For day trading or volatile markets, consider reducing lookback periods and increasing thresholds
- For swing trading, the default settings work well to capture significant zones
- In ranging markets, focus on the zones as they often mark the range boundaries
- In trending markets, follow the overall direction of the liquidity delta
Reading Acceleration Signals
The indicator shows color intensity variations to highlight acceleration in liquidity flows:
- Dark green/red: Strong acceleration (rapid shift in order flow)
- Medium green/red: Medium acceleration
- Light green/red: Weak acceleration
These acceleration signals often precede significant price movements.
Liquidity Location Detector [BigBeluga]
This indicator helps traders identify potential liquidity zones by detecting significant volume levels at key highs and lows. By using color intensity and scoring numbers, it visually highlights areas where liquidity concentration may be highest while incorporating trend analysis through EMAs.
🔵Key Features:
Liquidity Zone Detection: Automatically detects and marks areas where significant volume has accumulated at swing highs and lows.
Dynamic Box Plotting: Draws liquidity boxes at key highs and lows, updating based on market conditions.
Volume Strength Scaling: Uses a scoring system to rank liquidity zones, helping traders identify the strongest areas.
Color Intensity for Volume Strength: More transperent color indicate less liquidity, while less transperent represent stronger volume concentrations.
Customizable Display: Users can adjust the number of displayed liquidity zones and modify colors to suit their trading style.
Real-Time Liquidity Adaptation: As price interacts with liquidity zones, the indicator updates dynamically to reflect changing market conditions.
Auto-Stopping Liquidity Zones: Liquidity boxes automatically stop extending to the right once price crosses them, preventing outdated zones from interfering with live market action.
Trend Analysis with EMAs: Includes two optional EMAs (fast and slow) to help traders analyze market trends. Users can enable or disable these EMAs in the settings and use crossover signals for trend confirmation.
🔵Usage:
Identify Key Liquidity Areas: Use color intensity and transparency levels to determine high-impact liquidity zones.
Support & Resistance Confirmation: Liquidity zones can act as potential support and resistance levels, enhancing trade decision-making.
Market Structure Analysis: Observe how price interacts with liquidity to anticipate breakout or reversal points.
Scalping & Swing Trading: Works for both short-term and long-term traders looking for liquidity-based trade setups.
Liquidation Map Insight: A liquidity map highlights areas where large amounts of leveraged positions (both long and short) are likely to get liquidated. Since many traders use leverage, sharp price movements can trigger a cascade of liquidations, leading to rapid price surges or drops. Monitoring these liquidity zones and trends helps traders anticipate where price might react strongly.
Liquidity Location Detector is an essential tool for traders seeking to map out potential liquidity zones, providing deeper insights into market structure and trading volume dynamics.

[GrandAlgo] Liquidity Pivot Cloud - LPCLiquidity Pivot Cloud (LPC) is a visualization tool that extends all pivot levels to the right, creating a structured liquidity map across the chart. Instead of treating pivot points as static levels, LPC transforms them into a dynamic cloud, highlighting key areas where price has historically reacted.
Key Features:
Extended Pivot Levels – Automatically stretches all pivot highs and lows, forming a continuous liquidity zone.
Clear Structure – Provides an organized view of price action, making it easy to identify reaction zones.
Dynamic Liquidity Map – Helps traders spot potential liquidity sweeps and areas of price absorption.
How to Use:
Identify Liquidity Zones – Areas with multiple overlapping pivots signal strong liquidity pools.
Look for Reactions – Price often consolidates, wicks, or reverses around extended pivot clouds.
Combine with Confluence – Use alongside Fair Value Gaps, Institutional Price Blocks, or Market Structure shifts for higher probability setups.
LPC aligns with smart money concepts by revealing key liquidity areas where stop hunts, liquidity grabs, and institutional activity are likely to occur. It helps traders see where price is likely to be drawn before a major move, making it a valuable tool for those trading liquidity-based strategies.
Liquidations Levels [RunRox]📈 Liquidation Levels is an indicator designed to visualize key price levels on the chart, highlighting potential reversal points where liquidity may trigger significant price movements.
Liquidity is essential in trading - price action consistently moves from one liquidity area to another. We’ve created this free indicator to help traders easily identify and visualize these liquidity zones on their charts.
📌 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator works by marking visible highs and lows, points widely recognized by traders. Because many traders commonly place their stop-loss orders beyond these visible extremes, significant liquidity accumulates behind these points. By analyzing trading volume and visible extremes, the indicator estimates areas where clusters of stop-loss orders (liquidity pools) are likely positioned, giving traders valuable insights into potential market moves.
As shown in the screenshot above, the price aggressively moved toward Sell-Side liquidity. After sweeping this liquidity level for the second time, it reversed and began targeting Buy-Side liquidity. This clearly demonstrates how price moves from one liquidity pool to another, continually seeking out liquidity to fuel its next directional move.
As shown in the screenshot, price levels with fewer anticipated trader stop-losses are indicated by less vibrant, faded colors. When the lines become more saturated and vivid, it signals that sufficient liquidity - in the form of clustered stop-losses has accumulated, potentially attracting price movement toward these areas.
⚙️ SETTINGS
🔹 Period – Increasing this setting makes the marked highs and lows more significant, filtering out minor price swings.
🔹 Low Volume – Select the color displayed for low-liquidity levels.
🔹 High Volume – Select the color displayed for high-liquidity levels.
🔹 Levels to Display – Choose between 1 and 15 nearest liquidity levels to be shown on the chart.
🔹 Volume Sensitivity – Adjust the sensitivity of the indicator to volume data on the chart.
🔹 Show Volume – Enable or disable the display of volume values next to each liquidity level.
🔹 Max Age – Limits displayed liquidity levels to those not older than the specified number of bars.
✅ HOW TO USE
One method of using this indicator is demonstrated in the screenshot above.
Price reached a high-liquidity level and showed an initial reaction. We then waited for a second confirmation - a liquidity sweep followed by a clear market structure break - to enter the trade.
Our target is set at the liquidity accumulated below, with the stop-loss placed behind the manipulation high responsible for the liquidity sweep.
By following this approach, you can effectively identify trading opportunities using this indicator.
🔶 We’ve made every effort to create an indicator that’s as simple and user-friendly as possible. We’ll continue to improve and enhance it based on your feedback and suggestions in the future.
Uptrick: Portfolio Allocation DiversificationIntro
The Uptrick: Portfolio Allocation Diversification script is designed to help traders and investors manage multiple assets simultaneously. It generates signals based on various trading systems, allocates capital using different diversification methods, and displays real-time metrics and performance tables on the chart. The indicator compares active trading strategies with a separate long-term holding (HODL) simulation, allowing you to see how a systematic trading approach stacks up against a simple buy-and-hold strategy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trading System Selection
1. No signals (none)
In this mode, the script does not produce bullish or bearish indicators; every asset stays in a neutral stance. This setup is useful if you prefer to observe how capital might be distributed based solely on the chosen diversification method, with no influence from directional signals.
2. rsi – neutral
This mode uses an index-based measure of whether an asset appears overbought or oversold. It generates a bearish signal if market conditions point to overbought territory, and a bullish signal if they indicate oversold territory. If neither extreme surfaces, it remains neutral. Some traders apply this in sideways or range-bound conditions, where overbought and oversold levels often hint at possible turning points. It does not specifically account for divergence patterns.
3. rsi – long only
In this setting, the system watches for instances where momentum readings strengthen even if the asset’s price is still under pressure or setting new lows. It also considers oversold levels as potential signals for a bullish setup. When such conditions emerge, the script flags a possible move to the upside, ignoring indications that might otherwise suggest a bearish trend. This approach is generally favored by those who want to concentrate exclusively on identifying price recoveries.
4. rsi – short only
Here, the script focuses on spotting signs of deteriorating momentum while an asset’s price remains relatively high or attempts further gains. It also checks whether the market is drifting into overbought territory, suggesting a potential decline. Under such conditions, it issues a bearish signal. It provides no bullish alerts, making it particularly suitable for traders who look to take advantage of overvalued scenarios or protect themselves against sudden downward moves.
5. Deviation from fair value
Under this system, the script judges how far the current price may have strayed from what is considered typical, taking into account normal fluctuations. If the asset appears to be trading at an unusually low level compared to that reference, it is flagged as bullish. If it seems abnormally high, a bearish signal is issued. This can be applied in various market environments to seek opportunities that arise from perceived mispricing.
6. Percentile channel valuation
In this mode, the script determines where an asset's price stands within a historical distribution, highlighting whether it has reached unusually high or low territory compared to its recent past. When the price reaches what is deemed an extreme reading, it may indicate that a reversal is more likely. This approach is often used by traders who watch for statistical outliers and potential reversion to a more typical trading range.
7. ATH valuation
This technique involves comparing an asset's current price with its previously recorded peak values. The script then interprets whether the price is positioned so far below the all-time high that it looks discounted, or so close to that high that it could be overextended. Such perspective is favored by market participants who want to see if an asset still has ample room to climb before matching historic extremes, or if it is nearing a possible ceiling.
8. Z-score system
Here, the script measures how far above or below a standard reference average an asset's price may be, translated into standardized units. Substantial negative readings can suggest a price that might be unusually weak, prompting a bullish indication, while large positive readings could signal overextension and lead to a bearish call. This method is useful for traders watching for abrupt deviations from a norm that often invite a reversion to more balanced levels.
RSI Divergence Period
This input is particularly relevant for the RSI - Long Only and RSI - Short Only modes. The period determines how many bars in the past you compare RSI values to detect any divergences.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Diversification Method
Once the script has determined a bullish, bearish, or neutral stance for each asset, it then calculates how to distribute capital among all included assets. The diversification method sets the weighting logic.
1. None
Gives each asset an equal weight. For example, if you have five included assets, each might get 20 percent. This is a simple baseline.
2. Risk-Adjusted Expected Return Using Volatility Clustering
Emphasizes each asset’s average returns relative to its observed risk or volatility tendencies. Assets that exhibit good risk-adjusted returns combined with moderate or lower volatility may receive higher weights than more volatile or less appealing assets. This helps steer capital toward assets that have historically provided a better ratio of return to risk.
3. Relative Strength
Allocates more capital to assets that show stronger price strength compared to a reference (for example, price above a long-term moving average plus a higher RSI). Assets in clear uptrends may be given higher allocations.
4. Trend-Following Indicators
Examines trend-based signals, like positive momentum measurements or upward-trending strength indicators, to assign more weight to assets demonstrating strong directional moves. This suits those who prefer to latch onto trending markets.
5. Volatility-Adjusted Momentum
Looks for assets that have strong price momentum but relatively subdued volatility. The script tends to reward assets that are trending well yet are not too volatile, aiming for stable upward performance rather than massive swings.
6. Correlation-Based Risk Parity
Attempts to weight assets in such a way that the overall portfolio risk is more balanced. Although it is not an advanced correlation matrix approach in a strict sense, it conceptually scales each asset’s weight so no single outlier heavily dominates.
7. Omega Ratio Maximization
Gives preference to assets with higher omega ratios. This ratio can be interpreted as the probability-weighted gains versus losses. Assets with a favorable skew are given more capital.
8. Liquidity-Weighted Valuation
Considers each asset’s average trading liquidity, such as the combination of volume and price. More liquid assets typically receive a higher allocation because they can be entered or exited with lower slippage. If the trading system signals bullishness, that can further boost the allocation, and if it signals bearishness, the allocation might be set to zero or reduced drastically.
9. Drawdown-Controlled Allocation (DCA)
Examines each asset’s maximum drawdown over a recent window. Assets experiencing lighter drawdowns (thus indicating somewhat less downside volatility) receive higher allocations, aiming for a smoother overall equity curve.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Portfolio and Allocation Settings
Portfolio Value
Defines how much total capital is available for the strategy-based investment portion. For example, if set to 10,000, then each asset’s monetary allocation is determined by the percentage weighting times 10,000.
Use Fixed Allocation
When enabled, the script calculates the initial allocation percentages after 50 bars of data have passed. It then locks those percentages for the remainder of the backtest or real-time session. This feature allows traders to test a static weighting scenario to see how it differs from recalculating weights at each bar.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
HODL Simulator
The script has a separate simulation that accumulates positions in an asset whenever it appears to be recovering from an undervalued state. This parallel tracking is intended to contrast a simple buy-and-hold approach with the more adaptive allocation methods used elsewhere in the script.
HODL Buy Quantity
Each time an asset transitions from an undervalued state to a recovery phase, the simulator executes a purchase of a predefined quantity. For example, if set to 0.5 units, the system will accumulate this amount whenever conditions indicate a shift away from undervaluation.
HODL Buy Threshold
This parameter determines the level at which the simulation identifies an asset as transitioning out of an undervalued state. When the asset moves above this threshold after previously being classified as undervalued, a buy order is triggered. Over time, the performance of these accumulated positions is tracked, allowing for a comparison between this passive accumulation method and the more dynamic allocation strategy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Asset Table and Display Settings
The script displays data in multiple tables directly on your chart. You can toggle these tables on or off and position them in various corners of your TradingView screen.
Asset Info Table Position
This table provides key details for each included asset, displaying:
Symbol – Identifies the trading pair being monitored. This helps users keep track of which assets are included in the portfolio allocation process.
Current Trading Signal – Indicates whether the asset is in a bullish, bearish, or neutral state based on the selected trading system. This assists in quickly identifying which assets are showing potential trade opportunities.
Volatility Approximation – Represents the asset’s historical price fluctuations. Higher volatility suggests greater price swings, which can impact risk management and position sizing.
Liquidity Estimate – Reflects the asset’s market liquidity, often based on trading volume and price activity. More liquid assets tend to have lower transaction costs and reduced slippage, making them more favorable for active strategies.
Risk-Adjusted Return Value – Measures the asset’s returns relative to its risk level. This helps in determining whether an asset is generating efficient returns for the level of volatility it experiences, which is useful when making allocation decisions.
2. Strategy Allocation Table Position
Displays how your selected diversification method converts each asset into an allocation percentage. It also shows how much capital is being invested per asset, the cumulative return, standard performance metrics (for example, Sharpe ratio), and the separate HODL return percentage.
Symbol – Displays the asset being analyzed, ensuring clarity in allocation distribution.
Allocation Percentage – Represents the proportion of total capital assigned to each asset. This value is determined by the selected diversification method and helps traders understand how funds are distributed within the portfolio.
Investment Amount – Converts the allocation percentage into a dollar value based on the total portfolio size. This shows the exact amount being invested in each asset.
Cumulative Return – Tracks the total return of each asset over time, reflecting how well it has performed since the strategy began.
Sharpe Ratio – Evaluates the asset’s return in relation to its risk by comparing excess returns to volatility. A higher Sharpe ratio suggests a more favorable risk-adjusted performance.
Sortino Ratio – Similar to the Sharpe ratio, but focuses only on downside risk, making it more relevant for traders who prioritize minimizing losses.
Omega Ratio – Compares the probability of achieving gains versus losses, helping to assess whether an asset provides an attractive risk-reward balance.
Maximum Drawdown – Measures the largest percentage decline from an asset’s peak value to its lowest point. This metric helps traders understand the worst-case loss scenario.
HODL Return Percentage – Displays the hypothetical return if the asset had been bought and held instead of traded actively, offering a direct comparison between passive accumulation and the active strategy.
3. Profit Table
If the Profit Table is activated, it provides a summary of the actual dollar-based gains or losses for each asset and calculates the overall profit of the system. This table includes separate columns for profit excluding HODL and the combined total when HODL gains are included. As seen in the image below, this allows users to compare the performance of the active strategy against a passive buy-and-hold approach. The HODL profit percentage is derived from the Portfolio Value input, ensuring a clear comparison of accumulated returns.
4. Best Performing Asset Table
Focuses on the single highest-returning or highest-profit asset at that moment. It highlights the symbol, the asset’s cumulative returns, risk metrics, and other relevant stats. This helps identify which asset is currently outperforming the rest.
5. Most Profitable Asset
A simpler table that underscores the asset producing the highest absolute dollar profit across the portfolio.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Multi Asset Selection
You can include up to ten different assets (such as BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT, ADAUSDT, and so on) in this script. Each asset has two inputs: one to enable or disable its inclusion, and another to select its trading pair symbol. Once you enable an asset, the script requests the relevant market data from TradingView.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Uniqness and Features
1. Multiple Data Fetches
Each asset is pulled from the chart’s timeframe, along with various metrics such as RSI, volatility approximations, and trend indicators.
2. Various Risk and Performance Metrics
The script internally keeps track of different measures, like Sharpe ratio (a measure of average return adjusted for risk), Sortino ratio (which focuses on downside volatility), Omega ratio, and maximum drawdown. These metrics feed into the strategy allocation table, helping you quickly assess the risk-and-return profile of each asset.
3. Real-Time Tables
Instead of having to set up complex spreadsheets or external dashboards, the script updates all tables on every new bar. The color schemes in these tables are designed to draw attention to bullish or bearish signals, positive or negative returns, and so forth.
4. HODL Comparison
You can visually compare the active strategy’s results to a separate continuous buy-on-dips accumulation strategy. This allows for insight into whether your dynamic approach truly beats a simpler, more patient method.
5. Locking Allocations
The Use Fixed Allocation input is convenient for those who want to see how holding a fixed distribution of capital performs over time. It helps in distinguishing between constant rebalancing vs a fixed, set-and-forget style.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to use
1. Add the Script to Your Chart
Once added, open the settings panel to configure your asset list, choose a trading system, and select the diversification approach.
2. Select Assets
Pick up to ten symbols to monitor. Disable any you do not want included. Each included asset is then handled for signals, diversification, and performance metrics.
3. Choose Trading System
Decide if you prefer RSI-based signals, a fair-value approach, or a percentile-based method, among others. The script will then flag assets as bullish, bearish, or neutral according to that selection.
4. Pick a Diversification Method
For example, you might choose Trend-Following Indicators if you believe momentum stocks or cryptocurrencies will continue their trends. Or you could use the Omega Ratio approach if you want to reward assets that have had a favorable upside probability.
5. Set Portfolio Value and HODL Parameters
Enter how much capital you want to allocate in total (for the dynamic strategy) and adjust HODL buy quantities and thresholds as desired. (HODL Profit % is calculated from the Portfolio Value)
6. Inspect the Tables
On the chart, the script can display multiple tables showing your allocations, returns, risk metrics, and which assets are leading or lagging. Monitor these to make decisions about capital distribution or see how the strategy evolves.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional Remarks
This script aims to simplify multi-asset portfolio management in a single tool. It emphasizes user-friendliness by color-coding the data in tables, so you do not need extra spreadsheets. The script is also flexible in letting you lock allocations or compare dynamic updates.
Always remember that no script can guarantee profitable outcomes. Real markets involve unpredictability, and real trading includes fees, slippage, and liquidity constraints not fully accounted for here. The script uses real-time and historical data for demonstration and educational purposes, providing a testing environment for various systematic strategies.
Performance Considerations
Due to the complexity of this script, users may experience longer loading times, especially when handling multiple assets or using advanced allocation methods. In some cases, calculations may time out if too many settings are adjusted simultaneously. If this occurs, removing and reapplying the indicator to the chart can help reset the process. Additionally, it is recommended to configure inputs gradually instead of adjusting all parameters at once, as excessive changes can extend the script’s loading duration beyond TradingView’s processing limits.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Originality
This script stands out by integrating multiple asset management techniques within a single indicator, eliminating the need for multiple scripts or external portfolio tools. Unlike traditional single-asset strategies, it simultaneously evaluates multiple assets, applies systematic allocation logic, and tracks risk-adjusted performance in real time. The script is designed to function within TradingView’s script limitations while still allowing for complex portfolio simulations, making it an efficient tool for traders managing diverse holdings. Additionally, its combination of systematic trading signals with allocation-based diversification provides a structured approach to balancing exposure across different market conditions. The dynamic interplay between adaptive trading strategies and passive accumulation further differentiates it from conventional strategy indicators that focus solely on directional signals without considering capital allocation.
Conclusion
Uptrick: Portfolio Allocation Diversification pulls multiple assets into one efficient workflow, where each asset’s signal, volatility, and performance is measured, then assigned a share of capital according to your selected diversification method. The script accommodates both dynamic rebalancing and a locked allocation style, plus an ongoing HODL simulation for passive accumulation comparison. It neatly visualizes the entire process through on-chart tables that are updated every bar.
Traders and investors looking for ways to manage multiple assets under one unified framework can explore the different modules within this script to find what suits their style. Users can quickly switch among trading systems, vary the allocation approach, or review side-by-side performance metrics to see which method aligns best with their risk tolerance and market perspective.
Stablecoin Ratio with TPI ScoreThe script measures the stablecoin ratio (total stablecoin market cap divided by total crypto market cap, times 100) and its weekly change. Stablecoins (e.g., USDT, USDC) are a key gateway for capital entering or exiting the crypto ecosystem.
A rising ratio suggests more capital is parked in stablecoins (potential buying power), while a falling ratio indicates capital leaving (selling or withdrawal).
In a macro analysis, this is critical—it reflects the availability of liquid funds that could fuel price movements.
In macroeconomics, liquidity is a driver of asset prices.
In crypto, stablecoins represent sidelined capital ready to deploy.
How does it work?
Stablecoin Ratio:
Formula: (total_stablecoin_mcap / total_crypto_mcap) * 100.
Example: If stablecoins = $235B and total market cap = $2.5T, ratio = 9.4%.
Plotted as a red line in the oscillator pane, showing the percentage of the market held in stablecoins.
Weekly Change:
Calculates the percentage change in the ratio from the previous week:
(current_ratio - previous_ratio) / previous_ratio * 100.
Example: Ratio goes from 9% to 10% = +11.11% change.
TPI Score Assignment:
+1 (Bullish): If the ratio increases by more than 5% week-over-week.
-1 (Bearish): If the ratio decreases by more than 5% week-over-week.
0 (Neutral): If the change is between -5% and +5%.
Plotted as orange step line bars in the oscillator pane, snapping to +1, 0, or -1.
Engulfing Sweeps - Milana TradesEngulfing Sweeps
The Engulfing Sweeps Candle is a candlestick pattern that:
1)Takes liquidity from the previous candle’s high or low.
2)Fully engulfs previous candles upon closing.
3)Indicates strong buying or selling pressure.
4)Helps determine the bias of the next candle.
Logic Behind Engulfing Sweeps
If you analyze this candle on a lower timeframe, you’ll often see popular models like PO3 (Power of Three) or AMD (Accumulation – Manipulation – Distribution).
Once the candle closes, the goal is to enter a position on the retracement of the distribution phase.
How to Use Engulfing Sweeps?
Recommended Timeframes:
4H, Daily, Weekly – these levels hold significant liquidity.
Personally, I prefer 4H, as it provides a solid view of mid-term market moves.
Step1 - Identify Engulfing Sweep Candle
Step 2-Switch to a lower timeframe (15m or 5m).And you task identify optimal trade entry
Look for an entry pattern based on:
FVG (Fair Value Gap)
OB (Order Block)
FIB levels (0/0.25/0.5/ 0.75/ 1)
Wait for confirmation and take the trade.
Automating with TradingView Alerts
To avoid missing the pattern, you can set up alerts using a custom script. Once the pattern forms, TradingView will notify you so you can analyze the chart and take action. This approch helps me be more freedom
[TehThomas- Pro] - Liquidity SignalsOverview
This Pine Script indicator is designed to generate Buy and Sell signals based on liquidity sweeps and market structure shifts (MSS) or break of structure (BOS). The combination of liquidity sweeps and market structure changes provides a highly confluential signal that can be used to identify high-probability trade setups. This indicator is capable of working as a standalone tool or as part of a broader trading strategy.
Core Concepts
Liquidity Sweeps:
A liquidity sweep occurs when the price temporarily breaks a previous high or low, taking out stop losses or inducing breakout traders, only to reverse direction shortly after.
The indicator detects these liquidity sweeps at pivot points defined by a user-set pivotPeriod.
It plots Buyside Liquidity (resistance) or Sellside Liquidity (support) lines on the chart to indicate where liquidity pools are likely positioned.
Market Structure Shifts (MSS) and Break of Structure (BOS):
BOS: This occurs when the price closes above or below a previous swing high or low, indicating a potential shift in trend.
MSS: This is a more aggressive form of market structure change where the price action reverses after a liquidity sweep, signaling a potential reversal before a BOS confirmation.
The script tracks swing highs and swing lows using the pivot_strength setting to define how many bars are required on both sides of a pivot point.
Confluence of Signals:
The main signal is plotted when a Liquidity Sweep is followed by an MSS within a specified number of bars (25 by default).
This creates a high-probability trade signal because it combines both liquidity traps and market structure reversals.
Below, you can see the signals the indicator generates
There is one loss marked by the second circle.
Settings and Inputs
Liquidity Sweep Settings
pivotPeriod: Defines the left and right length of the pivot points to detect swing highs and lows.
maxLine: Maximum number of liquidity lines plotted on the chart.
resistanceColor & supportColor: Colors for Buyside and Sellside liquidity lines.
lineExtend: Number of bars to extend liquidity lines into the future.
hitAction: Determines what happens when liquidity lines are hit (dotted, dashed, or delete).
Market Structure Settings
show_mss: Toggle to display MSS signals on the chart.
show_bos: Toggle to display BOS signals on the chart.
Customizable line styles, colors, and labels for both MSS and BOS.
How to Use the Indicator
Signal Confirmation:
A Buy Signal is most effective when combined with a liquidity sweep of sellside liquidity followed by a bullish market structure shift.
A Sell Signal is most effective when combined with a liquidity sweep of buyside liquidity followed by a bearish market structure shift.
Always check confluence with other indicators such as moving averages or volume analysis.
Trade Management:
Place stop-loss orders below the liquidity sweep low for buys or above the liquidity sweep high for sells.
Use the previous swing high or low as a target or set custom risk-reward ratios.
Why This Indicator Works So Well
✅ Combines liquidity sweeps and market structure for highly accurate signals.
✅ Works across all timeframes and markets.
✅ Automatically plots support and resistance zones.
✅ Provides clear buy and sell signals with customizable alerts.
✅ Helps traders avoid false breakouts by waiting for market structure confirmation.
Conclusion
This indicator is a highly confluential trading tool that combines liquidity sweeps with market structure shifts to generate Buy and Sell signals. It provides a strong edge by confirming liquidity traps with market structure reversals. With customizable settings, it can be adapted to different timeframes and trading styles, making it suitable for both scalping and swing trading strategies.
By automating the detection of these advanced concepts, the indicator helps traders stay objective and disciplined in their decision-making process.
Whether you're a beginner or an advanced trader, this indicator will help you spot high-probability trade setups and improve your overall trading performance.

[TehThomas] - ICT Liquidity sweepsThe ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is designed to track liquidity zones in the market areas where stop-losses and pending orders are typically clustered. This indicator marks buyside liquidity (resistance) and sellside liquidity (support), helping traders identify areas where price is likely to manipulate liquidity before making a significant move.
This tool is based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) Smart Money Concepts, which emphasize how institutional traders, or “Smart Money,” manipulate liquidity to fuel price movements. By identifying these zones, traders can anticipate liquidity sweeps and position themselves accordingly.
⚙️ How It Works
1️⃣ Detects Key Liquidity Zones
The script automatically identifies significant swing highs and swing lows in price action using a pivot-based method.
A swing high (buyside liquidity) is a peak where price struggles to break higher, forming a resistance level.
A swing low (sellside liquidity) is a valley where price struggles to go lower, creating a support level.
These liquidity points are prime targets for liquidity sweeps before a true trend direction is confirmed.
2️⃣ Draws Liquidity Lines
Once a swing high or low is identified, a horizontal line is drawn at that level.
The lines extend to the right, serving as future liquidity targets until they are broken.
The indicator allows customization in terms of color, line width, and maximum number of liquidity lines displayed at once.
3️⃣ Handles Liquidity Sweeps
When price breaks a liquidity level, the indicator reacts based on the chosen action setting:
Dotted/Dashed: The line remains visible but changes style to indicate a sweep.
Delete: The line is completely removed once price has interacted with it.
This feature ensures that traders can easily spot where liquidity has been taken and determine whether a reversal or continuation is likely.
4️⃣ Prevents Chart Clutter
To maintain a clean chart, the script limits the number of liquidity lines displayed at any given time.
When new liquidity zones are formed, the oldest lines are automatically removed, keeping the focus on the most relevant liquidity zones.
🎯 How to Use the ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator
🔍 Identifying Liquidity Grabs
This indicator helps you identify areas where Smart Money is targeting liquidity before making a move.
Buyside Liquidity (BSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price spikes above a resistance level before reversing downward.
Indicate that Smart Money has hunted stop-losses and buy stops before driving price lower.
Sellside Liquidity (SSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price drops below a support level before reversing upward.
Indicate that Smart Money has collected liquidity from stop-losses and sell stops before pushing price higher.
📈 Combining with Market Structure Shifts (MSS)
One of the best ways to use this indicator is in conjunction with our Market Structure Shifts Indicator.
Liquidity sweeps + MSS Confirmation give strong high-probability trade setups:
Wait for a liquidity sweep (price takes out a liquidity level).
Look for an MSS in the opposite direction (e.g., price sweeps a high, then breaks a recent low).
Enter the trade in the new direction with stop-loss above/below the liquidity sweep.
📊 Entry & Exit Strategies
Long Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key sellside liquidity level (SSL) → creates a false breakdown.
MSS confirms a reversal (price breaks structure upwards).
Enter long position after confirmation.
Stop-loss below the liquidity grab to minimize risk.
Short Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key buyside liquidity level (BSL) → takes liquidity above resistance.
MSS confirms a bearish move (price breaks a key support level).
Enter short position after confirmation.
Stop-loss above the liquidity grab.
🚀 Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer
✅ Helps Identify Smart Money Manipulation – Understand where institutions are likely to grab liquidity before the real move happens.
✅ Enhances Market Structure Analysis – When paired with MSS, liquidity sweeps become powerful signals for trend reversals.
✅ Filters Out False Breakouts – Many traders get caught in liquidity grabs. This indicator helps avoid bad entries.
✅ Keeps Your Chart Clean – The auto-limiting feature ensures that only the most relevant liquidity levels remain visible.
✅ Works on Any Timeframe – Whether you’re a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, liquidity concepts apply universally.
📌 Final Thoughts
The ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is a must-have tool for traders who follow Smart Money Concepts. By tracking liquidity levels and highlighting sweeps, it allows traders to enter trades with precision while avoiding false breakouts.
When combined with Market Structure Shifts (MSS), this strategy becomes even more powerful, offering traders an edge in spotting reversals and timing entries effectively.

CandelaCharts - Liquidity Key Zones (LKZ)📝 Overview
The Liquidity Key Zones indicator displays the previous high and low levels for daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly timeframes. These levels serve as crucial price zones for trading any market or instrument. They are also high-probability reaction zones, ideal for trading using straightforward confirmation patterns.
Each of these levels plays a significant role in determining whether the market continues its momentum or reverses its bias. I like to think of these levels as dual magnets—they simultaneously attract and repel price. You might wonder how having opposing views can be useful. The key is to remain neutral about direction and establish your own rules to identify when these zones are likely to attract or repel price. I have my own set of rules, and you can develop yours.

📒 Usage
When the price breaks through a significant level, such as a daily, weekly, or monthly high or low, it often signals a potential reversal in market direction. This occurs because these levels represent key areas of support or resistance, where traders anticipate heightened activity, including profit-taking, stop-loss orders, or new positions being initiated.
Once the price breaches these levels, it may trigger a sharp reaction as market participants adjust their strategies, leading to a reversal. Monitoring price action and volume around these levels can provide valuable confirmation of such reversals.
Another effective approach to utilizing these pivot points is by incorporating them into a structured trading strategy, such as the X Model, which leverages multiple timeframes and technical tools to refine trade entries and exits.
X Model conditions:
(D1) Previous Day High (ERL)
(H1) Bullish FVG/IFVG/OB (IRL)
(m15) MSS / SMT
Only Short Above 00:00
By combining these elements, the X Model offers a comprehensive framework for leveraging pivot levels effectively, emphasizing confluence between liquidity zones, time-based rules, and multi-timeframe analysis to enhance trading accuracy and consistency.
🚨 Alerts
This script provides alert options for all signals.
Bearish Signal
A bearish signal is generated when the price breaks below the previous low level.
Bullish Signal
A bullish signal is generated when the price breaks above the previous low level.

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).
