💡 Framework
The model incorporates multiple timeframe alignments for increased precision and reliability. The following timeframes are utilized for a comprehensive view of the market:
1m - 5m - 1H
2m - 15m - 4H
3m - 20m - 8H
5m - 30m - 12H
15m - 1H - 1D
1H - 4H - 1W
4H - 1D - 1M
1D - 1W - 3M
1W - 1M - 12M
These alignments ensure that the model captures both short-term price movements and longer-term trends, allowing for well-informed decision-making across various market conditions.
The X Model Indicator employs a precise set of conditions for both short and long entries, designed to capture optimal market opportunities based on key price levels, market imbalances, and institutional activity. These conditions combine multiple timeframes, price action patterns, and market sentiment to enhance the accuracy of entry signals.
Here's how each condition works:
Short Entry Conditions:
Previous Day High (ERL): The previous day’s high acts as a significant resistance level for the market. A price rejection or failure to break above this level indicates a potential short opportunity, as the market may reverse or consolidate.
H1 Bullish FVG (IRL): A Bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) on the 1-hour chart highlights an area of price imbalance. This signals that the price may attempt to move back into this gap, providing a high-probability short entry if combined with other bearish signals.
m15 MSS / SMT: On the 15-minute chart, the Momentum Shift (MSS) and Smart Money Tool (SMT) indicators are used to confirm market manipulation or shift in momentum. If these indicators show bearish market activity, they strengthen the case for a short position.
Only Short Above 00:00: To avoid noise from earlier market sessions, the model only triggers short entries after midnight (00:00), ensuring that the trade occurs during a more stable, predictable phase of the trading day.
Long Entry Conditions:
Previous Day Low (ERL): The previous day’s low serves as a support level, marking an area where the price is likely to bounce. If the price pulls back and tests this level, it suggests a high-probability long entry, especially when other indicators align.
H1 Bearish FVG (IRL): A Bearish Fair Value Gap (FVG) on the 1-hour chart shows an imbalance to the downside, where the price may reverse and move upwards. This gap is often seen as an opportunity for the price to return to equilibrium, presenting a favorable long entry.
m15 MSS / SMT: The Momentum Shift (MSS) and Smart Money Tool (SMT) on the 15-minute chart help identify the market’s true intentions. A shift towards bullish momentum or signs of smart money accumulation increases the likelihood of a successful long entry.
Only Long Below 00:00: To focus on the market’s early session dynamics, the model only triggers long entries before midnight (00:00), capturing potential moves during quieter periods when the price can show clearer directional trends.

C|M Capital (Market Structure Pro)CM Capital (Market Structure Pro)
Overview:
The CM Capital (Market Structure Pro) Indicator is a groundbreaking tool for traders seeking a comprehensive market analysis. This closed-source script merges multiple facets of market dynamics into a single, user-friendly interface, designed to enhance decision-making by providing a multi-dimensional view of market behavior. By combining advanced market structure detection, liquidity event identification, Fair Value Gap analysis, and session-specific insights, this indicator offers traders a strategic advantage in navigating the complexities of financial markets.
Key Functionalities:
Market Structure Insights:
Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Shifts (MSS):
Methodology: Our approach uses fractal analysis coupled with custom algorithms to dissect price movements, identifying pivotal moments where market structure breaks or shifts. The script evaluates candle patterns, volume data, and price momentum to flag these events.
Customization: Users can choose between candle close or wick confirmations and select from various line styles for visualization, tailoring the sensitivity to match their trading strategy, whether it's scalping or swing trading.
Utility: These markers act as early signals for trend changes, allowing traders to prepare for potential reversals or continuations, especially useful in volatile markets where timely decisions are crucial.
Structure Strength:
Highs and Lows Definition: The 'Structure Strength' setting in this indicator directly influences the identification of structure highs and lows. It's not just about detecting market structure; it's about defining what constitutes a significant high or low based on your trading horizon.
Swing vs. Internal Structure:
Lower Strength: Opting for a lower strength setting will highlight more extreme, swing-type structures. This means the indicator will mark out only the most pronounced highs and lows, which are ideal for traders focusing on broader market swings or longer-term trends.
Higher Strength: Conversely, increasing the strength level plots more internal structure levels. This setting is perfect for traders who want to dive into the market's micro-movements, offering insights into potential support and resistance within ongoing trends, essentially capturing more reactive and detailed price action.
Strategic Application: This adjustable parameter allows traders to zoom in or out on the market structure, aligning with their trading style or the specific market conditions they're navigating. Whether you're looking to catch significant market turns or to finesse entries and exits within a trend, the structure strength setting provides the granularity needed for nuanced market analysis.
Liquidity Sweeps:
Detection: Beyond traditional price action analysis, our indicator incorporates a unique method to spot liquidity sweeps. By analyzing price movements against historical support/resistance zones, it highlights instances where significant orders might have been absorbed, suggesting areas of potential price reversal or continuation.
Visualization: Liquidity sweeps are visually marked with customizable colors and an 'X' label, making them instantly recognizable. This feature is particularly beneficial for traders looking to enter or exit trades based on market inefficiencies or anticipated institutional activity.
Application: Traders can use these signals to anticipate where the market might react strongly, either as support for entries or as a caution for exits, enhancing trade precision.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs):
Identification: Our proprietary FVG detection algorithm looks for price discrepancies over recent bars, signaling where the market could aim to rebalance. This is not merely about spotting gaps but understanding their context within the market's flow.
Enhanced Visualization: Users can extend FVGs across the chart, providing a clearer view of potential mean reversion points or continuation levels, aiding in setting targets or stop-losses.
Strategic Use: FVGs serve as dynamic levels where traders might expect price action to revisit, offering opportunities for mean reversion trades or confirming trend strength.
Session Visualization:
Session Markers: By delineating Asia, London, and New York session times, the indicator helps traders recognize session-specific volatility, trends, and liquidity conditions. Each session can be customized for color and duration, aligning with various trading strategies.
Timeframe Correlation: Integrating session analysis with structural and liquidity insights allows for a strategy where trades are timed not just by price action but by when in the global market cycle they occur, potentially increasing the effectiveness of entry and exit points.
Watermark Display:
Personalization: Add a personal touch or brand identity to your charts with customizable text and color options for the watermark, enhancing both the aesthetic and functional aspects of your trading setup.
Originality:
This script's originality lies in its holistic approach to market analysis. The integration of these diverse yet synergistic components provides a unique toolset:
Confluence of Signals: Each element enhances the others, creating a confluence where structural changes, liquidity events, and time-based market conditions are analyzed in concert, offering a more complete trading signal than isolated indicators.
Customization for Diverse Trading Styles: From high-frequency scalping to long-term trend following, the script's flexibility caters to a broad spectrum of trading strategies by allowing adjustments in sensitivity, visualization, and application.
How to Use:
Setup: Add the script to your chart and explore the settings in the input panel. Customize the visual and functional aspects to align with your trading style.
Strategy Application:
Use BOS/MSS for trend confirmation, liquidity sweeps for entry/exit precision, FVGs for mean reversion opportunities, and session markers to time your trades optimally.
Consider combining signals for stronger trade validation; for instance, a BOS during the London session might be more significant if it coincides with a liquidity sweep and an FVG from the Asian session.
Macros ICT KillZones [TradingFinder] Times & Price Trading Setup🔵 Introduction
ICT Macros, developed by Michael Huddleston, also known as ICT (Inner Circle Trader), is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders identify the best trading opportunities during key time intervals like the London and New York trading sessions.
For traders aiming to capitalize on market volatility, liquidity shifts, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG), understanding and using these critical time zones can significantly improve trading outcomes.
In today’s highly competitive financial markets, identifying the moments when the market is seeking buy-side or sell-side liquidity, or filling price imbalances, is essential for maximizing profitability.
The ICT Macros indicator is built on the renowned ICT time and price theory, which enables traders to track and leverage key market dynamics such as breaks of highs and lows, imbalances, and liquidity hunts.
This indicator automatically detects crucial market times and optimizes strategies for traders by highlighting the specific moments when price movements are most likely to occur. A standout feature of ICT Macros is its automatic adjustment for Daylight Saving Time (DST), ensuring that traders remain synced with the correct session times.
This means you can rely on accurate market timing without the need for manual updates, allowing you to focus on capturing profitable trades during critical timeframes.
🔵 How to Use
The ICT Macros indicator helps you capitalize on trading opportunities during key market moments, particularly when the market is breaking highs or lows, filling Fair Value Gaps (FVG), or addressing imbalances. This indicator is particularly beneficial for traders who seek to identify liquidity, market volatility, and price imbalances.

Below are the main applications of this tool and how to incorporate it into your trading strategies :
🟣 Combining ICT Macros with Trading Strategies
The ICT Macros indicator can easily be used in conjunction with various trading strategies. Two well-known strategies that can be combined with this indicator include:
ICT 2022 Trading Model : This model is designed based on identifying market liquidity, structural price changes, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). By using ICT Macros, you can identify the key time intervals when the market is seeking liquidity, filling imbalances, or breaking through important highs and lows, allowing you to enter or exit trades at the right moment.
Silver Bullet Strategy : This strategy, which is built around liquidity hunting and rapid price movements, can work more accurately with the help of ICT Macros. The indicator pinpoints precise liquidity times, helping traders take advantage of market shifts caused by filling Fair Value Gaps or correcting imbalances.
🟣 Capitalizing on Price Volatility During Key Times
Large market algorithms often seek liquidity or fill Fair Value Gaps (FVG) during the intervals marked by ICT Macros. These periods are when price volatility increases, and traders can use these moments to enter or exit trades.
For example, if sell-side liquidity is drained and the market fills an imbalance, the price might move toward buy-side liquidity. By identifying these moments, which may also involve breaking a previous high or low, you can leverage rapid market fluctuations to your advantage.
🟣 Identifying Liquidity and Price Imbalances
One of the important uses of ICT Macros is identifying points where the market is seeking liquidity and correcting imbalances. You can determine high or low liquidity levels in the market before each ICT Macro, as well as Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and price imbalances that need to be filled, using them to adjust your trading strategy. This capability allows you to manage trades based on liquidity shifts or imbalance corrections without needing a bias toward a specific direction.
🔵 Settings
The ICT Macros indicator offers various customization options, allowing users to tailor it to their specific needs. Below are the main settings:
Time Zone Mode : You can select one of the following options to define how time is displayed:
UTC : For traders who need to work with Universal Time.
Session Local Time : The local time corresponding to the London or New York markets.
Your Time Zone : You can specify your own time zone (e.g., "UTC-4:00").
Your Time Zone : If you choose "Your Time Zone," you can set your specific time zone. By default, this is set to UTC-4:00.
Show Range Time : This option allows you to display the time range of each session on the chart. If enabled, the exact start and end times of each interval are shown.
Show or Hide Time Ranges : Toggle on/off for visual clarity depending on user preference.
Custom Colors : Set distinct colors for each session, allowing users to personalize their chart based on their trading style.These settings allow you to adjust the key time intervals of each trading session to your preference and customize the time format according to your own needs.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Macros indicator is a powerful tool for traders, helping them to identify key time intervals where the market seeks liquidity or fills Fair Value Gaps (FVG), corrects imbalances, and breaks highs or lows. This tool is especially valuable for traders using liquidity-based strategies such as ICT 2022 or Silver Bullet.
One of the key features of this indicator is its support for Daylight Saving Time (DST), ensuring you are always in sync with the correct trading session timings without manual adjustments. This is particularly beneficial for traders operating across different time zones.
With ICT Macros, you can capitalize on crucial market opportunities during sensitive times, take advantage of imbalances, and enhance your trading strategies based on market volatility, liquidity shifts, and Fair Value Gaps.
Everything ICT v1█ OVERVIEW
This script presents some of the concepts taught by the ICT. It includes "Fair value gaps", "Double tops and bottoms", "New week opening gaps", "Optimal trade entry" and some other minor things. This is a work in progress and there will be more concepts included in the future.
█ FEATURES
The first group in the indicator's menu is "Active fair value gaps" .
Its purpose is to display a FVG if the price enters one. Most of the other scripts are deleting the FVG when the price go through it but this script won't. You can choose how many candles to look back for a FVG, FVG lines transparency and to show only current FVG and delete old ones.
Second, you can choose to show relatively equal highs and lows otherwise known as double bottoms and tops . There is a filter which will remove some of the lines. It is included to clean up your chart a bit but if you don't want to miss something you can leave it enabled.
There is a precision value which is ranging between 20 and 120. Higher number means the difference between the two highs/lows should be very small. On its biggest setting 120 it will display only equal highs/lows.
You can choose the colors and width of the lines.
"Weekend gaps" category is self explanatory. You can chose either to show them or not, colors and width.
"Optimal trade entry" is constantly measuring a defined range and it's presenting real-time a graph on the chart with which you can easily find if price is in OTE.
There are options to choose how many candles to look back for defining a range and everything else is for the minimal visual representation.
And lastly, there are options to show horizontal line at 0:00 am NY local time, clock adjustment setting if the line doesn't correspond to its spot and option to change the color of a FVG candle which in my opinion is the most useful thing in a trading indicator.

SMC Liquidity & Order Blocks🔹 1. Moving Averages for Trend Confirmation
Uses Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) to determine trend direction.
9-period EMA (blue) and 15-period EMA (red) are plotted.
🔹 2. Liquidity Zones (Swing Highs & Lows)
Identifies liquidity zones where price is likely to react.
Buy-Side Liquidity: Highest high over 20 periods (Green line).
Sell-Side Liquidity: Lowest low over 20 periods (Red line).
🔹 3. Order Block Detection
Detects bullish and bearish order blocks (key price zones of institutional activity).
Bullish Order Block (OB): Formed when the highest close over 5 bars exceeds the highest high.
Bearish Order Block (OB): Formed when the lowest close over 5 bars is lower than the lowest low.
Plotted using green (up-triangle) for bullish OB and red (down-triangle) for bearish OB.
🔹 4. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Detects price inefficiencies (gaps between candles).
FVG Up: When a candle's high is lower than a candle two bars ahead.
FVG Down: When a candle's low is higher than a candle two bars ahead.
Plotted using blue circles (FVG Up) and orange circles (FVG Down).
Reversal rehersal v1This indicator was designed to identify potential market reversal zones using a combination of RSI thresholds (shooting range/falling range), candlestick patterns, and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). By combining all these elements into one indicator, it allow for outputting high probability buy/sell signals for use by scalpers on low timeframes like 1-15 mins, for quick but small profits.
Note: that this has been mainly tested on DE40 index on the 1 min timeframe, and need to be adjusted to whichever timeframe and symbol you intend to use. Refer to the backtester feature for checking if this indicator may work for you.
The indicator use RSI ranges from two timeframes to highlight where momentum is building up. During these areas, it will look for certain candlestick patterns (Sweeps as the primary one) and check for existance of fair value gaps to further enhance the hitrate of the signal.
The logic for FVG detection was based on ©pmk07's work with MTF FVG tiny indicator. Several major changes was implemented though and incorporated into this indicator. Among these are:
Automatically adjustments of FVG boxes when mitigated partially and options to extend/cull boxes for performance and clarity.
Backtesting Table (Experimental):
This indicator also features an optional simplified table to review historical theoretical performance of signals, including win rate, profit/loss, and trade statistics. This does not take commision or slippage into consideration.
Usage Notes:
Setup:
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Decide if you want to use Long or Short (or both).
3. If you're scalping on ie. 1 min time frame, make sure to set FVG's to higher timeframes (ie. 5, 15, 60).
4. Enable the 'Show backtest results' and adjust the 'Signals' og 'Take profit' and 'Stop loss' values until you are satisfied with the results.
Use:
1. Setup an alert based on either of the 'BullishShooting range' or 'BearishFalling range' alerts. This will draw your attention to watch for the possible setups.
2. Verify if there's a significant imbalance prior to the signal before taking the trade. Otherwise this may invalidate the setup.
3. Once a signal is shown on the graph (either Green arrow up for buys/Red arrow down for sells) - you should enter a trade with the given 'Take profit' and 'Stop loss' values.
4. (optional) Setup an alert for either the Strong/Weak signals. Which corresponds to when one of the arrows are printed.
Important: This is the way I use it myself, but use at own risk and remember to combine with other indicators for further confluence. Remember this is no crystal ball and I do not guarantee profitable results. The indicator merely show signals with high probability setups for scalping.

🔹 Settings:
EMA Settings: Enable/Disable EMAs, adjust lengths (20, 50, 200).
MFI Trend Filter: Enable/Disable trend signals, customize MFI levels.
Fair Value Gaps: Show/Hide FVGs, adjust extension & colors.
FxCanli RangeFxCanli Range is an indicator based on ICT Internal Range and External Range concept.
What is ICT Internal Range Liquidity?
The Fair Value Gap is marked as the ICT internal range liquidity.
ICT Fair Value Gap is marked as the liquidity because it is a formation of three candles leaving an area between high and low of 1st and 3rd candle where price do not overlap.
FxCanli Range Indicator draws all Internal Ranges above explaining the ICT internal range liquidity.
What is Imbalance (FVG)?
Fair Value Gaps are price jumps caused by imbalanced buying and selling pressures.
A bullish Fair Value Gap is created when there is a gap between the high of the first candle and the low of the third candle.
A bearish Fair Value Gap is created when there is a gap between the low of the first candle and the high of the third candle.
What is ICT External Range Liquidity?
The swing high and swing low of an ICT dealing range are termed as external range.
The high of an ICT dealing range is termed as “buy side liquidity” assuming the buy stops rest above the high of dealing range.
While the low of an ICT dealing range is known as “sell side liquidity” assuming the sell stops resting below the low of dealing range.
FxCanli Range Indicator draws all External Ranges above explaining the ICT external range liquidity
🔶 USAGE & EXAMPLES
As ICT said us, Price moves 2 side, Internal Liquidity or External Liquidity
External Range Liquidity to Internal Range Liquidity
When price reached to External Range, it will sweep the External Range Liquidity
at that time, we have to wait price to reverse and start to move to Internal range liquidity (FVG)
our strategy has to be like this; we have to open 2 time less lower time frame
if we are at 1 hour chart, we have to open 1Hour - 15 min - 5 min chart
and wait for Trend Reversal pattern at there
Internal Range Liquidity to External Range Liquidity
When price reached to Internal Range(FVG), it will fill the imbalance
at that time, we have to wait price to reverse and start to move to External Range Liquidity.
Again we have to decrease our time frame 2 times.
if we are at 1 hour chart, we have to open 1Hour -> 15 min -> 5 min chart
and wait for Trend Reversal pattern at there

Multiple Naked LevelsPURPOSE OF THE INDICATOR
This indicator autogenerates and displays naked levels and gaps of multiple types collected into one simple and easy to use indicator.
VALUE PROPOSITION OF THE INDICATOR AND HOW IT IS ORIGINAL AND USEFUL
1) CONVENIENCE : The purpose of this indicator is to offer traders with one coherent and robust indicator providing useful, valuable, and often used levels - in one place.
2) CLUSTERS OF CONFLUENCES : With this indicator it is easy to identify levels and zones on the chart with multiple confluences increasing the likelihood of a potential reversal zone.
THE TYPES OF LEVELS AND GAPS INCLUDED IN THE INDICATOR
The types of levels include the following:
1) PIVOT levels (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) depicted in the chart as: dnPIV, wnPIV, mnPIV.
2) POC (Point of Control) levels (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) depicted in the chart as: dnPoC, wnPoC, mnPoC.
3) VAH/VAL STD 1 levels (Value Area High/Low with 1 std) (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) depicted in the chart as: dnVAH1/dnVAL1, wnVAH1/wnVAL1, mnVAH1/mnVAL1
4) VAH/VAL STD 2 levels (Value Area High/Low with 2 std) (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) depicted in the chart as: dnVAH2/dnVAL2, wnVAH2/wnVAL2, mnVAH1/mnVAL2
5) FAIR VALUE GAPS (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) depicted in the chart as: dnFVG, wnFVG, mnFVG.
6) CME GAPS (Daily) depicted in the chart as: dnCME.
7) EQUILIBRIUM levels (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) depicted in the chart as dnEQ, wnEQ, mnEQ.
HOW-TO ACTIVATE LEVEL TYPES AND TIMEFRAMES AND HOW-TO USE THE INDICATOR
You can simply choose which of the levels to be activated and displayed by clicking on the desired radio button in the settings menu.
You can locate the settings menu by clicking into the Object Tree window, left-click on the Multiple Naked Levels and select Settings.
You will then get a menu of different level types and timeframes. Click the checkboxes for the level types and timeframes that you want to display on the chart.
You can then go into the chart and check out which naked levels that have appeared. You can then use those levels as part of your technical analysis.
The levels displayed on the chart can serve as additional confluences or as part of your overall technical analysis and indicators.
In order to back-test the impact of the different naked levels you can also enable tapped levels to be depicted on the chart. Do this by toggling the 'Show tapped levels' checkbox.
Keep in mind however that Trading View can not shom more than 500 lines and text boxes so the indocator will not be able to give you the complete history back to the start for long duration assets.
In order to clean up the charts a little bit there are two additional settings that can be used in the Settings menu:
- Selecting the price range (%) from the current price to be included in the chart. The default is 25%. That means that all levels below or above 20% will not be displayed. You can set this level yourself from 0 up to 100%.
- Selecting the minimum gap size to include on the chart. The default is 1%. That means that all gaps/ranges below 1% in price difference will not be displayed on the chart. You can set the minimum gap size yourself.
BASIC DESCRIPTION OF THE INNER WORKINGS OF THE INDICTATOR
The way the indicator works is that it calculates and identifies all levels from the list of levels type and timeframes above. The indicator then adds this level to a list of untapped levels.
Then for each bar after, it checks if the level has been tapped. If the level has been tapped or a gap/range completely filled, this level is removed from the list so that the levels displayed in the end are only naked/untapped levels.
Below is a descrition of each of the level types and how it is caluclated (algorithm):
PIVOT
Daily, Weekly and Monthly levels in trading refer to significant price points that traders monitor within the context of a single trading day. These levels can provide insights into market behavior and help traders make informed decisions regarding entry and exit points.
Traders often use D/W/M levels to set entry and exit points for trades. For example, entering long positions near support (daily close) or selling near resistance (daily close).
Daily levels are used to set stop-loss orders. Placing stops just below the daily close for long positions or above the daily close for short positions can help manage risk.
The relationship between price movement and daily levels provides insights into market sentiment. For instance, if the price fails to break above the daily high, it may signify bearish sentiment, while a strong breakout can indicate bullish sentiment.
The way these levels are calculated in this indicator is based on finding pivots in the chart on D/W/M timeframe. The level is then set to previous D/W/M close = current D/W/M open.
In addition, when price is going up previous D/W/M open must be smaller than previous D/W/M close and current D/W/M close must be smaller than the current D/W/M open. When price is going down the opposite.
POINT OF CONTROL
The Point of Control (POC) is a key concept in volume profile analysis, which is commonly used in trading.
It represents the price level at which the highest volume of trading occurred during a specific period.
The POC is derived from the volume traded at various price levels over a defined time frame. In this indicator the timeframes are Daily, Weekly, and Montly.
It identifies the price level where the most trades took place, indicating strong interest and activity from traders at that price.
The POC often acts as a significant support or resistance level. If the price approaches the POC from above, it may act as a support level, while if approached from below, it can serve as a resistance level. Traders monitor the POC to gauge potential reversals or breakouts.
The way the POC is calculated in this indicator is by an approximation by analysing intrabars for the respective timeperiod (D/W/M), assigning the volume for each intrabar into the price-bins that the intrabar covers and finally identifying the bin with the highest aggregated volume.
The POC is the price in the middle of this bin.
The indicator uses a sample space for intrabars on the Daily timeframe of 15 minutes, 35 minutes for the Weekly timeframe, and 140 minutes for the Monthly timeframe.
The indicator has predefined the size of the bins to 0.2% of the price at the range low. That implies that the precision of the calulated POC og VAH/VAL is within 0.2%.
This reduction of precision is a tradeoff for performance and speed of the indicator.
This also implies that the bigger the difference from range high prices to range low prices the more bins the algorithm will iterate over. This is typically the case when calculating the monthly volume profile levels and especially high volatility assets such as alt coins.
Sometimes the number of iterations becomes too big for Trading View to handle. In these cases the bin size will be increased even more to reduce the number of iterations.
In such cases the bin size might increase by a factor of 2-3 decreasing the accuracy of the Volume Profile levels.
Anyway, since these Volume Profile levels are approximations and since precision is traded for performance the user should consider the Volume profile levels(POC, VAH, VAL) as zones rather than pin point accurate levels.
VALUE AREA HIGH/LOW STD1/STD2
The Value Area High (VAH) and Value Area Low (VAL) are important concepts in volume profile analysis, helping traders understand price levels where the majority of trading activity occurs for a given period.
The Value Area High/Low is the upper/lower boundary of the value area, representing the highest price level at which a certain percentage of the total trading volume occurred within a specified period.
The VAH/VAL indicates the price point above/below which the majority of trading activity is considered less valuable. It can serve as a potential resistance/support level, as prices above/below this level may experience selling/buying pressure from traders who view the price as overvalued/undervalued
In this indicator the timeframes are Daily, Weekly, and Monthly. This indicator provides two boundaries that can be selected in the menu.
The first boundary is 70% of the total volume (=1 standard deviation from mean). The second boundary is 95% of the total volume (=2 standard deviation from mean).
The way VAH/VAL is calculated is based on the same algorithm as for the POC.
However instead of identifying the bin with the highest volume, we start from range low and sum up the volume for each bin until the aggregated volume = 30%/70% for VAL1/VAH1 and aggregated volume = 5%/95% for VAL2/VAH2.
Then we simply set the VAL/VAH equal to the low of the respective bin.
FAIR VALUE GAPS
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) is a concept primarily used in technical analysis and price action trading, particularly within the context of futures and forex markets. They refer to areas on a price chart where there is a noticeable lack of trading activity, often highlighted by a significant price movement away from a previous level without trading occurring in between.
FVGs represent price levels where the market has moved significantly without any meaningful trading occurring. This can be seen as a "gap" on the price chart, where the price jumps from one level to another, often due to a rapid market reaction to news, events, or other factors.
These gaps typically appear when prices rise or fall quickly, creating a space on the chart where no transactions have taken place. For example, if a stock opens sharply higher and there are no trades at the prices in between the two levels, it creates a gap. The areas within these gaps can be areas of liquidity that the market may return to “fill” later on.
FVGs highlight inefficiencies in pricing and can indicate areas where the market may correct itself. When the market moves rapidly, it may leave behind price levels that traders eventually revisit to establish fair value.
Traders often watch for these gaps as potential reversal or continuation points. Many traders believe that price will eventually “fill” the gap, meaning it will return to those price levels, providing potential entry or exit points.
This indicator calculate FVGs on three different timeframes, Daily, Weekly and Montly.
In this indicator the FVGs are identified by looking for a three-candle pattern on a chart, signalling a discrete imbalance in order volume that prompts a quick price adjustment. These gaps reflect moments where the market sentiment strongly leans towards buying or selling yet lacks the opposite orders to maintain price stability.
The indicator sets the gap to the difference from the high of the first bar to the low of the third bar when price is moving up or from the low of the first bar to the high of the third bar when price is moving down.
CME GAPS (BTC only)
CME gaps refer to price discrepancies that can occur in charts for futures contracts traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). These gaps typically arise from the fact that many futures markets, including those on the CME, operate nearly 24 hours a day but may have significant price movements during periods when the market is closed.
CME gaps occur when there is a difference between the closing price of a futures contract on one trading day and the opening price on the following trading day. This difference can create a "gap" on the price chart.
Opening Gaps: These usually happen when the market opens significantly higher or lower than the previous day's close, often influenced by news, economic data releases, or other market events occurring during non-trading hours.
Gaps can result from reactions to major announcements or developments, such as earnings reports, geopolitical events, or changes in economic indicators, leading to rapid price movements.
The importance of CME Gaps in Trading is the potential for Filling Gaps: Many traders believe that prices often "fill" gaps, meaning that prices may return to the gap area to establish fair value.
This can create potential trading opportunities based on the expectation of gap filling. Gaps can act as significant support or resistance levels. Traders monitor these levels to identify potential reversal points in price action.
The way the gap is identified in this indicator is by checking if current open is higher than previous bar close when price is moving up or if current open is lower than previous day close when price is moving down.
EQUILIBRIUM
Equilibrium in finance and trading refers to a state where supply and demand in a market balance each other, resulting in stable prices. It is a key concept in various economic and trading contexts. Here’s a concise description:
Market Equilibrium occurs when the quantity of a good or service supplied equals the quantity demanded at a specific price level. At this point, there is no inherent pressure for the price to change, as buyers and sellers are in agreement.
Equilibrium Price is the price at which the market is in equilibrium. It reflects the point where the supply curve intersects the demand curve on a graph. At the equilibrium price, the market clears, meaning there are no surplus goods or shortages.
In this indicator the equilibrium level is calculated simply by finding the midpoint of the Daily, Weekly, and Montly candles respectively.
NOTES
1) Performance. The algorithms are quite resource intensive and the time it takes the indicator to calculate all the levels could be 5 seconds or more, depending on the number of bars in the chart and especially if Montly Volume Profile levels are selected (POC, VAH or VAL).
2) Levels displayed vs the selected chart timeframe. On a timeframe smaller than the daily TF - both Daily, Weekly, and Monthly levels will be displayed. On a timeframe bigger than the daily TF but smaller than the weekly TF - the Weekly and Monthly levels will be display but not the Daily levels. On a timeframe bigger than the weekly TF but smaller than the monthly TF - only the Monthly levels will be displayed. Not Daily and Weekly.
CREDITS
The core algorithm for calculating the POC levels is based on the indicator "Naked Intrabar POC" developed by rumpypumpydumpy (https:www.tradingview.com/u/rumpypumpydumpy/).
The "Naked intrabar POC" indicator calculates the POC on the current chart timeframe.
This indicator (Multiple Naked Levels) adds two new features:
1) It calculates the POC on three specific timeframes, the Daily, Weekly, and Monthly timeframes - not only the current chart timeframe.
2) It adds functionaly by calculating the VAL and VAH of the volume profile on the Daily, Weekly, Monthly timeframes .
SMC Order Block [Truth Indie]Smart Money Concept (SMC)
For me, SMC is a trading philosophy that stems from those with knowledge and understanding of the structure of the Smart Money group's trading system. It is developed through the observation of price behavior.
SMC is related to the Smart Money group or those entities that can influence the market, such as financial institutions, banks, or funds. Market movements are often driven by market fundamentals or economics. The Smart Money group possesses extensive research data for analyzing the market's fundamentals and has the ability to steer the market in various directions based on market and economic fundamentals at a given time.
The SMC concept is adapted from the ICT concept, and it was developed and shared by The Inner Circle Trader.
I have been studying and trying to understand SMC for some time, and I have many questions I would like to explore. The challenge lies in the fact that different sources of knowledge on this topic often have varying teachings, and my proficiency in the English language is limited. As a result, I haven't had the opportunity to study from the primary source, The Inner Circle Trader.
This indicator was created for the purpose of researching Market Structure and Order Blocks, which are integral parts of the SMC Concept.
The fundamental principle for identifying Order Blocks is as follows:
1.Locate swings that create candlestick imbalances.
2.An imbalance refers to a candlestick that is larger than the preceding one and contains a Fair Value Gap (FVG).
This indicator categorizes Order Blocks into four types, and you are encouraged to customize them to suit your preferences.
OB Type1
1.The closing price of candle has an opposite direction to the candle .
2.Candle has a wick longer than its body, by at least 1 times or more (adjustable).
3.Candle has a wick longer than candle , by at least 2 times or more (adjustable).
4.There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between the wicks of candle and .
OB Type1_HTF
-This condition is the same as OB Type1, but it involves analyzing 6 candles instead. This means looking at a larger time frame, twice as big as the original one.
OB Type2
1.The closing price of candle has the opposite direction to candle .
2.Candle has a body larger than its wick by at least 1 times or more (adjustable).
3.Candle has a body larger than candle by at least 2 times or more (adjustable).
4.There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between the wicks of candle and .
OB Type2_HTF means observing a larger time frame, specifically twice as big as the previous one.
OB Type3
1.The closing price of candle has the same direction as candle .
2.Candle has a wick longer than its body, by at least 1 times or more (adjustable).
3.Candle has a wick longer than candle , by at least 2 times or more (adjustable).
4.There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between the wicks of candle and .
OB Type3_HTF means observing a larger time frame, specifically twice as big as the previous one.
OB Type4
1.The closing price of candle has the same direction as candle .
2.Candle has a body larger than its wick by at least 1 times or more (adjustable).
3.Candle has a body larger than candle by at least 2 times or more (adjustable).
4.There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between the wicks of candle and .
OB Type4_HTF is an indicator that involves looking at a larger time frame, specifically twice as big as the original one.
Order Block Setting
1.Click to activate the OB search in different Types.
2.Adjust the body of the candle .
3.Adjust the strength of the candle or the Imbalance candle.
4.You can change the name of OB.
5.Adjust the font size and color.
6.Adjust the color of the OB BOX and History BOX.
7.Adjust the font of OB HTF.
1.It refers to the value of W for a specific candle.
2.It refers to the value of Im for a specific candle.
3.It refers to the values of W and Im in the HTF.
4.For OB Type1 and Type3, a higher W value will search for candles with a larger wick and a smaller body. When the W value is lower, it will search for candles with a smaller wick and a larger body, moving from low to high.
5.For OB Type2 and Type4, a lower W value will search for candles with a smaller wick and a larger body. When the W value is higher, it will search for candles with a larger wick and a smaller body, moving from high to low.
Market Structure
Comprising the process of breaking the price structure, resulting in BOS (Breakout of Structure) or CHoCH (Change of Character High), and creating new High or Low based on the price structure.
1.When the market forms a price structure with High and Low, when the price moves to disrupt the structure in either direction, it will lead to BOS or CHoCH, resulting in a new High or Low. You can adjust the method of breaking the structure using the close, high, or low.
2.When you break the price structure, a High or Low will be formed on one side, and it will lead to an Inducement Swing. When the price moves and collides, it will create a price range of High and Low. You can adjust the method of breaking the structure using the close, high, or low.
3.There is an option for testing Fibonacci (Fibo). Its function is similar to the Inducement Swing. You can adjust the Fibonacci settings.
Premium & Discount Zone
1.The Premium & Discount Zone will appear based on the current price structure. It helps you see the price zones you are interested in.
2.You can adjust the %Premium & Discount as needed.
3.The OB (Order Block) will be displayed when a price structure of High and Low forms within the Premium & Discount Zone. The OB in this indicator is not a recommendation to buy or sell. You need to research and test various conditions before making trading decisions.
Everyone's trading strategies are different, and it comes down to backtesting and selecting the strategy that suits your individual needs. Hopefully, this indicator will assist the TradingView community of traders in their trading endeavors.
ProConcepts (v-1.0.2)ProConcepts is a smart moeny concepts indicator that has several primary functions and features.
BOS Feature: BOS stands for break of structure and this is used to determine market structure support and resistance breakouts. The blue and red lines plot the pivot highs and lows on every time frame. When a trend is in a single direction and BOS appears, that is a strong sign that market structure is broken and the trend will continue.
CHOCH Feature: Similar to BOS the change of character feature is also a smart money concept where in a trend, CHOCH essentially is used to help determine a change of that trend with a low being violated in an uptrend or a high being violated in a downtrend. CHOCH is what determines the high lows of the trend.
Shaded Candle Feature: The candles are shaded either red or blue based on the trend. the CHOCH as discussed previously determines the trend and shades the candles blue and red according to the highs and lows.
Sessions Shading Feature: The background shading with lower opacity indicates a sessions feature that seperates the main trading sessions of the day, London, Asia, and New York. They are color coordinated and can be changed to fit your needs as a trader.
FVG Feature: FVG stands for fair value gap which is an area on the chart where there is a single directional movement either bullish for the blue FVG and bearish for the red FVG. These fvgs are strong areas of interest for rejections of price because they are agressive movements similar to an imbalance. The FVG should be used as a retest confirmation of a trend during a breakout of the BOS or a CHOCH.
High Low Feature: Disabled on the default chart is a a high low feature that marks all of the high lows of a trend so you can identify areas of support and resistance.
ZEN ALL IN ONE 🍵This custom indicator is a fusion of market structure, value zones, and institutional footprints — combining Moving Averages (MA's), the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP), and Fair Value Gaps (FVG's) into a cohesive analytical tool designed for traders who seek precision, timing, and deeper insight into market behavior.
Moving Averages (MA’s):
At the foundation of this tool are dynamic Moving Averages that adapt to price evolution over time. Whether you're identifying long-term trends with higher-period MA's or short-term momentum shifts with faster ones, these lines serve as the backbone of directional bias — smoothing out noise and highlighting the core movement of the market. They help reveal whether the current environment favors continuation or reversal, offering a clear lens through which to interpret price action.
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):
Layered atop this structure is the VWAP — a true measure of value and institutional sentiment. Unlike simple averages, VWAP accounts for volume at price, showing where the majority of trading activity has taken place. It acts as a gravitational center — a magnet for price in range-bound markets, and a dividing line in trending conditions. Professional traders and institutions often use VWAP as a benchmark, and when price deviates too far from it, mean reversion or breakout behaviors tend to emerge. This tool integrates VWAP to give you the "true price" — the one backed by volume and consensus.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG’s):
But value alone isn’t enough — we also need to know where price should return. That’s where Fair Value Gaps come in. These imbalances, often created by aggressive institutional moves, highlight inefficiencies in price delivery. When price moves too fast, it often skips levels — leaving behind areas where few or no trades occurred. These gaps are not just artifacts of speed — they’re magnets for future price action. By visualizing these FVGs, this indicator lets you anticipate retracements, identify liquidity zones, and spot potential reversal or continuation points before the crowd.
Together, a Unified Lens:
By combining these three elements — MA's for trend, VWAP for value, and FVG's for imbalance — this indicator becomes more than the sum of its parts. It's a roadmap that shows you where price is, where it’s likely to go, and where it should go. Whether you're day trading momentum or swing trading structure, this hybrid model provides multiple layers of confluence to refine your entries, exits, and overall market bias.
Trade with clarity. Trade with alignment. Trade where structure meets story.

RunRox - Entry Model🎯 RunRox Entry Model is an all-in-one reversal-pattern indicator engineered to help traders accurately identify key price-reversal points on their charts. It will be part of our premium indicator package and improve the effectiveness of your trading strategies.
The primary concept of this indicator is liquidity analysis, making it ideal for Smart Money traders and for trading within market structure. At the same time, the indicator is universal and can be integrated into any strategy. Below, I will outline the full concept of the indicator and its settings so you can better understand how it works.
🧬 CONCEPT
In the screenshot below, I’ll schematically illustrate the core idea of this indicator. It’s one of the patterns that the indicator automatically detects on the chart using a two-timeframe approach. We use the higher timeframe to identify liquidity zones, and the lower timeframe to capture liquidity removal and structure breaks. The schematic is shown in the screenshot below.
Our indicator includes three entry models in total , and I will discuss its functionality and features in more detail later in this post.
💡 FEATURES
Three entry models
PO3 HTF Bar
Entry Area
Optimization for each Entry Area
Filters
HTF FVG
Alert customization
Next, we will examine each entry model in detail.
🟠 ENTRY MODEL 1
The first model is the core one we’ll work with; all other models rely on its structure and construction. In the screenshot below, I’ll schematically show the complete model.
As shown in the screenshot above, we display higher-timeframe candles on the current chart to better visualize the entry model and keep the trader informed of what’s happening on the larger timeframe. The screenshot also highlights both the Long and Short models, as well as the Entry Area, which I will explain in more detail below.
The schematic model on the lower timeframe is shown in the screenshot above. It illustrates that after the Entry Model forms, we draw the Entry Area on the next candle and wait for a price pullback into this zone for the optimal trade entry. Statistically, before moving higher, the price typically revisits the Entry Area, covering the imbalances created by MSS; thus, the Entry Area represents the ideal entry point.
🟩 Entry Area
Once the Entry Model has formed, we focus on identifying the optimal pullback zone for taking a position. To determine which retracement area performs best, we conducted extensive historical backtesting on potential zones and selected those that consistently delivered the strongest results. This process yields Entry Areas with the highest probability of a successful reversal.
On the screenshot above, you can see an example of the Entry Area and which zones carry a higher versus lower probability of reversal. Zones rendered with greater transparency have historically delivered weaker results than the more opaque zones. The deeper-colored areas represent the optimal entry zones and can improve your risk-reward ratio by allowing you to enter at more favorable prices.
It’s important to remember that the entire Entry Area functions as a potential zone for scaling into a position. However, if your risk-to-reward ratio isn’t favorable, you can wait for the price to retrace to lower levels within the Entry Area and enter with a more attractive risk-to-reward.
🟢 Pattern Rating
Each entry model receives a rating in the form of green circles next to its name 🟢. The rating ranges from one to four circles, based on the historical performance of similar patterns. To calculate this rating, we backtest past data by analyzing candle behavior during the model’s formation and assign circles according to how similar patterns performed historically.
Example Ratings:
🟢 – One circle
🟢🟢 – Two circles
🟢🟢🟢 – Three circles
🟢🟢🟢🟢 – Four circles
The more green circles a model has, the more reliable it is—but it’s crucial to rely on your own analysis when identifying strong reversal points on the chart. This rating reflects the model’s historical performance and does not guarantee future results, so keep that in mind!
Below is a screenshot showing four model variations with different ratings on the chart.
⚠️ Unconfirmed Pattern
Entry Model 1 is designed so that, until the higher-timeframe candle closes, the pattern remains unconfirmed and is hidden on the chart. For traders who prefer to see setups as they form, there’s a dedicated feature that displays the unconfirmed pattern at the moment of its appearance - triggered by the Market Structure Shift - before the HTF candle closes. The screenshot below shows what the pattern looks like prior to confirmation.
‼️IMPORTANT: Until the pattern is confirmed and the higher-timeframe candle has closed, the model may disappear from the chart if price reverses and the HTF candle closes below the previous bar. Therefore, this mode is suitable only for experienced traders who want to see market moves in advance. Remember that the pattern can be removed from the chart, so we recommend waiting for the HTF candle to close before deciding to enter a trade.‼️
✂️ Filters
For the primary model, there are four filters designed to enhance entry points or exclude less-confirmed patterns. The filters available in the indicator are:
Bounce Filter
Market Shift Mode
Same Wave Filter
Only with Divergence
I will explain how each of these filters works below.
- Bounce Filter
The Bounce Filter identifies significant deviations of price from its mean and only displays the Entry Model once the asset’s price moves beyond the average level. The screenshot below illustrates how this appears on the chart.
The actual average-price calculation is more sophisticated than what’s shown in the screenshot, that image is just an illustrative example. When the price deviates significantly from the N-bar average, we start looking for the Entry Model. This approach works particularly well in range-bound markets without a clear trend, as it lets you trade strong deviations from the mean.
- Market Shift Mode
This filter works by detecting the initial impulse that triggered the liquidity sweep on the previous higher-timeframe candle, and then holding the Market Structure Shift level at that point after the sweep. If the filter is turned off, price may move higher following the liquidity removal, creating a new MSS level and potentially producing a false structure shift and entry signal on the formed model.
This filter helps you more accurately identify genuine shifts - but keep in mind that the model can still perform well without it, so choose the setting that best suits your trading style.
- Same Wave Filter
The Same Wave Filter removes entry models that form without a clear lower-timeframe structure when liquidity is swept from the previous higher-timeframe candle. In other words, if the prior HTF candle and the current one belong to the same impulse wave - without any retracements on the LTF - the model is filtered out.
Keep in mind that this filter may also exclude patterns that could have produced positive results, so whether to enable it depends on your trading system.
- Only with Divergence
The Only with Divergence filter detects divergence between the lows of successive candles and indicators like RSI. When the low that swept liquidity diverges from the previous candle’s low, the indicator displays a “DIV” label. Although RSI is cited as an example, our divergence calculation is more advanced. This filter highlights patterns where low divergence signals genuine liquidity manipulation and a likely aggressive price reversal.
🌀 Model Settings
Trade Direction: Choose whether to display models for Long or Short trades.
Fractal: Select between automatic fractal detection—which adapts the lower-timeframe (LTF) and higher-timeframe (HTF) candles—or Custom.
Custom Fractal: When Custom is selected, manually specify the LTF and HTF timeframes used to detect the patterns.
History Pattern Limit: Set the maximum number of patterns to display on the chart to keep it clean and uncluttered.
🎨 Model Style
You can flexibly customize the model’s appearance by choosing your preferred line thickness, color, and the other settings we discussed above.
🔵 ENTRY MODEL 2
This model appears under specific conditions when Model 1 cannot form. It’s a price-reversal model constructed according to different rules than the first model. The screenshot below shows how it looks on the chart.
This model forms less frequently than Model 1 but delivers equally strong performance and is displayed as a position-entry zone.
Like the Entry Area in Entry Model 1, this zone is calculated automatically and highlights the best entry levels: areas that showed the strongest historical results are rendered in a brighter shade.
🎨 Model Style
You can flexibly customize the style of Entry Model 2 - its color, opacity, visibility, and the average price of the previous candle.
🟢 ENTRY MODEL 3
Entry Model 3 is a continuation pattern that only forms after Entry Model 1 has completed and delivered the necessary price move to trigger Model 3.
Below is a schematic illustration of how Model 3 is intended to work.
🎨 Model Style
As with the previous models, you can flexibly customize the style of this zone.
⬆️ HTF CANDLES
One of the standout features of this indicator is the ability to plot higher-timeframe (HTF) candles directly on your lower-timeframe (LTF) chart, giving you clear visualization of the entry models and insight into what’s unfolding on the larger timeframe.
You can fully customize the HTF candles - select their style, the number of bars displayed, and tweak various settings to match your personal trading style.
HTF FVG

✅ USAGE EXAMPLES
Now I’ll demonstrate several ways to apply this indicator across different trading strategies.
Primarily, it’s most effective within the Smart Money framework - where liquidity and manipulation are the core focus - so it integrates seamlessly into your SMC-based approach.
However, it can also be employed in other strategies, such as classic technical analysis or Elliott Wave, to capitalize on reversal points on the chart.
Example 1
The first example illustrates forming a downtrend using a Smart Money strategy. After the market structure shifts and the first BOS is broken, we begin looking for a short entry.
Once Entry Model 1 is established, a Fair Value Gap appears, which we use as our position-entry zone. The nearest target becomes the newly formed BOS level.
In this trade, it was crucial to wait for a strong downtrend to develop before hunting for entries. Therefore, we waited for the first BOS to break and entered the trade to ride the continuation of the downtrend down to the next BOS level.
Example 2
The next example illustrates a downtrend developing with a Fair Value Gap on the 1-hour timeframe. The FVG is also displayed directly on the HTF candles in the chart.
The pattern forms within the HTF Fair Value Gap, indicating that we can balance this inefficiency and ride the continuation of the downtrend.
The target can simply be a 1:2 or 1:3 risk–reward ratio, as in our case.
📌 CONCLUSION
These two examples illustrate how this indicator can be used to identify reversals or trend continuations. In truth, there are countless ways to incorporate this tool, and each trader can adapt the model to fit their own strategy.
Always remember to rely on your own analysis and only enter trades when you feel confident in them.
ICT Order Blocks v2 (Debug)Josh has a very large PP xD
Understanding Order Blocks (OBs) - The ICT Perspective
This document delves into the concept of Order Blocks (OBs) from the perspective of the ICT methodology. It outlines what OBs are, their significance in trading, and how the "ICT Order Blocks v2 (Refined)" indicator functions to identify and visualize these critical price levels. By understanding OBs, traders can better navigate market movements and make informed decisions based on institutional trading behavior.
What is an Order Block (OB)?
Within ICT methodology, an Order Block represents a specific price candle where significant buying or selling interest from institutions (Smart Money) is believed to have occurred. They are potential areas where price might return and react.
Bullish Order Block: Typically the last down-closing candle before a strong, impulsive upward move (displacement). It suggests institutions may have absorbed selling pressure and initiated long positions here.
Bearish Order Block: Typically the last up-closing candle before a strong, impulsive downward move (displacement). It suggests institutions may have distributed long positions or initiated short positions here.
Why are OBs Significant (ICT View)?
Institutional Footprint: They mark potential zones of large order execution.
Support/Resistance: Unmitigated OBs can act as sensitive price levels where reactions are expected. Bullish OBs may provide support; Bearish OBs may provide resistance.
Origin of Moves: They often mark the origin point of significant price swings.
Liquidity Engineering: Institutions might drive price back to OBs to mitigate earlier positions or to engineer liquidity before continuing a move.
Common Refinements
ICT often emphasizes higher probability OBs that are associated with:
Displacement: The move away from the OB is sharp and decisive.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs): An FVG forming immediately after the OB strengthens its validity.
OB Mitigation: This refers to price returning to the level of the Order Block after its formation. Price might react at the edge (proximal line) or the 50% level (mean threshold) of the OB. An OB is often considered fully mitigated or invalidated if price trades decisively through its entire range, especially with a candle body closing beyond it.
How the "ICT Order Blocks v2 (Refined)" Indicator Works
This indicator automates the detection and visualization of the most recent unmitigated Order Block of each type (Bullish/Bearish), incorporating optional filters.
Detection:
It looks at the relationship between the candle two bars ago ( ), the previous candle ( ), and potentially the current candle ( ).
Bullish OB: Identifies if candle was a down-close (close < open ) AND candle broke above the high of candle (high > high ).
Bearish OB: Identifies if candle was an up-close (close > open ) AND candle broke below the low of candle (low < low ).
Accuracy Filters (Optional Inputs):
These filters help identify potentially higher-probability OBs:
Require Fair Value Gap (FVG)?: If enabled, the indicator checks if an FVG formed immediately after the OB candle ( ). Specifically, it looks for a gap between candle and candle (low > high for Bullish OB confirmation, high < low for Bearish).
Require Strong Close Breakout?: If enabled, it requires the breakout candle ( ) to close beyond the range of the OB candle ( ). (close > high for Bullish, close < low for Bearish). This suggests stronger confirmation.
Storing the Most Recent OB:
When an OB is detected and passes any enabled filters, its details (high, low, formation bar index) are stored. Crucially, this indicator only tracks the single most recent valid unmitigated OB of each type (one Bullish, one Bearish) using var variables. If a newer valid OB forms, it replaces the previously stored one.
Drawing Boxes:
If a valid Bullish OB is being tracked (and Show Bullish OBs is enabled), it draws a box (box.new) using the high and low of the identified OB candle ( ). The same process applies to Bearish OBs (Show Bearish OBs enabled). The boxes automatically extend to the right (extend.right) and their right edge is updated on each new bar (box.set_right) until they are mitigated. Labels ("Bull OB" / "Bear OB") are displayed inside the boxes.
Mitigation & Box Deletion:
The indicator checks if the current closing price (close ) has moved entirely beyond the range of the tracked OB.
Mitigation Rule Used: A Bullish OB is considered mitigated if close < bull_ob_low. A Bearish OB is considered mitigated if close > bear_ob_high. Once an OB is marked as mitigated, the indicator stops tracking it and its corresponding box is automatically deleted (box.delete) from the chart.
This indicator provides a dynamic visualization of the most recent, potentially significant Order Blocks that meet the specified criteria, helping traders identify key areas of interest based on ICT principles.
Hidden LiquidityHidden Liquidity Indicator: Detecting Breaker Blocks and Hidden Order Blocks (HOBs)
The Hidden Liquidity Indicator is a powerful tool designed to assist traders in identifying breaker blocks and hidden order blocks (HOBs). By analyzing untouched candle bodies within order blocks, it provides a systematic approach to evaluating fair value gaps (FVGs) and order blocks based on engulfing candles.
Features of the Hidden Liquidity Indicator
This indicator effectively differentiates between complete HOBs, partial HOBs and partially mitigated HOBs (PMHOBs), allowing traders to assess market structure with precision. The key classifications include:
HOB (Hidden Order Block): The candle body fully aligns within the FVGs without being touched by wicks, establishing a strong and reliable breaker block.
PMHOB (Partial Mitigated Hidden Order Block) : The candle body is mitigated by less than 50%, making it a weaker version of the Hidden OB.
PHOBs (Partial Hidden Orderblock) : The candle body fits at least by 50% in the FVG making it also weaker than a common HOB
For an HOB to be considered valid, its equilibrium must be crossed by the FVGs, ensuring a focused and high-quality analysis of market structure.
Visualization and Market Structure Analysis
The Hidden Liquidity Indicator utilizes distinct color codes to enhance readability and clarity:
Bullish HOBs – Green
Bearish HOBs – Red
PMHOBs – Orange
PHOBs - Blue
Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF)
The indicator is capable of identifying HOBs,PHOBS and PMHOBs across all timeframes. Traders can seamlessly integrate their preferred timeframes by configuring the settings in TradingView.
Settings
You can choose wether you want the indicator to show PHOBs and PMHOBs
Why Use the Hidden Liquidity Indicator?
This indicator provides a structured and precise methodology for analyzing order blocks and breaker blocks. By focusing on untouched candle bodies and equilibrium levels, it offers a unique perspective on market structure that is often overlooked by traditional order block indicators. Its multi-timeframe analysis capability makes it an indispensable tool for traders seeking to refine their market strategy and enhance decision-making.
This guide serves as a comprehensive reference for optimizing the Hidden Liquidity Indicator, enabling traders to leverage its full potential for effective market analys
John Bob-Trading-BotDeveloped by Ayebale John Bob with the help of his bestie, this innovative strategy combines advanced Smart Money Concepts with practical risk management tools to help traders identify and capitalize on key market moves.
Key Features:
Smart Money Concepts & Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
The strategy monitors price action for fair value gaps, which are visualized as extremely faint horizontal lines on the chart. These FVGs signal potential areas where institutional traders might have entered or exited positions.
Dynamic Entry Signals:
Buy signals are triggered when the price crosses above the 50-bar lowest low or when a bullish FVG is detected. Conversely, sell signals are generated when the price falls below the 50-bar highest high or a bearish FVG is identified. Each signal is visually marked on the chart with clear buy (green) and sell (red) labels.
Multi-Level Order Execution:
Once an entry signal occurs, the strategy places five separate orders, each with its own take-profit (TP) level. The TP levels are calculated dynamically using the Average True Range (ATR) and a set of predefined multipliers. This allows traders to scale out of positions as the market moves favorably.
Dynamic Risk Management:
A stop-loss is automatically set at a distance determined by the ATR, ensuring that risk is managed in accordance with current market volatility.
Real-Time Trade Information Table:
In the bottom-right corner of the chart, a trade information table displays essential details about the current trade:
Side: Displays "BUY NOW" (with a dark green background) for long entries or "SELL NOW" (with a dark red background) for short entries.
Entry Price & Stop-Loss: Shows the entry price (highlighted in green) and the corresponding stop-loss level (highlighted in red).
Take-Profit Levels: Lists the five TP levels, each of which turns green once the market price reaches that target.
Timer: A live timer in minutes counts from the moment the current trade trigger started, helping traders track the duration of their active trades.
Visual Progress Bar:
A histogram-style progress bar is plotted on the chart, visually representing the percentage gain (or loss) relative to the entry price.
This strategy was meticulously designed to incorporate both technical analysis and smart risk management, offering a robust trading solution that adapts to changing market conditions. Whether you're a seasoned trader or just starting out, the AyebaleJohnBob Trading Bot equips you with the tools and visual cues needed to make well-informed trading decisions.

CandelaCharts - Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG) 📝 Overview
An ICT Inversion Fair Value Gap, often called an Inverse FVG, occurs when a Fair Value Gap (FVG) fails to maintain price support or resistance, resulting in a price breach beyond the FVG. This phenomenon highlights an initial shift in price momentum, signaling potential reversals or retracements.
A Bullish IFVG forms when the price breaks above a bearish fair value gap, signaling a potential shift to bullish momentum.
A Bearish IFVG forms when the price breaks below a bullish fair value gap, signaling a potential shift to bearish momentum.
The IFVG Indicator is a powerful tool designed to automatically detect Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) on your charts. It highlights key zones where price breaches fair value gaps, signaling potential momentum shifts or trend reversals. Whether you're tracking bullish or bearish IFVGs, this indicator provides clear visual cues, helping you make informed trading decisions with precision and confidence. Perfect for traders seeking to anticipate market structure changes effortlessly.

Bearish BreakerDescription:
The Bearish Breaker is designed to detect significant bearish candles that meet specific customizable conditions, allowing traders to easily identify potential sell signals or strong downtrends. This indicator highlights bearish candles based on size, close position within the candle's range, and other specific criteria, with options to plot Fibonacci levels, a stop loss line, and dollar loss estimation.
Key Features:
1. Customizable Candle Highlighting Conditions:
Highlights candles that are bearish and whose body is greater than a user-defined multiple of the average candle body size over a specified period.
2.Checks if the candle’s close is within a customizable percentage from the bottom of the candle’s range (default is 35%).
3. Ensures the close is lower than the lows of the previous two candles.
Visual Markings:
1. A plus sign appears below large bearish candles that meet the highlighting criteria.
2. Optionally plots a line at the low of the previous candle, labeled as "FVG" (Fair Value Gap).
3. Fibonacci Levels:
Plots 61.8% and 50% Fibonacci levels from the low to high of the highlighted candle.
4. Provides options to show/hide labels and adjust line colors.
5. Shaded Area:
Fills the area between the 50% and 61.8% levels with customizable color and transparency.
Stop Loss and Dollar Calculation:
1. Calculates a stop loss level, set a user-defined number of ticks above the high of the highlighted candle.
2. Displays a label with the potential dollar loss from the "FVG" to the stop loss line, using a specified dollar value per tick.
How To Use
1. Highlight Conditions: Adjust parameters like the average body length, threshold multiplier, and close percentage to fine-tune the bearish candle detection. typically I like to use the 4-6 body length with a 1.5 multiplier
2. Visual Elements: Toggle labels, colors, and transparency of Fibonacci and FVG lines, allowing you to customize the display for clarity.
3. Risk Management: Set the dollar value per tick and stop loss distance (in ticks) to display potential risk for your specific instrument , for example dollar per tick on NQ is $5 , ES is $12.50, CL is $10
4. Alerts:
An alert can be set to trigger each time a large bearish candle forms and meets all conditions, helping you stay notified of potential bearish momentum shifts.
5. Parameters:
Threshold Multiplier: Adjusts the size threshold for highlighting a bearish candle.
Close Percent in Range: Sets how close to the bottom of the candle’s range the close must be (0-100%). I like the candle to close in the lower 75 percent of the candle.
6. Stop Loss Ticks Above High: Controls how far above the high of the highlighted candle to place the stop loss.
7. Dollar Value per Tick: Calculates potential dollar loss between the FVG level and stop loss based on the asset’s tick value.
8. To trade this setup I like to wait for the first 1-2 candles after the highlighted breaker candle to pull back into the shaded area for a short position and target the low of the breaker candle or a 2-1 risk to reward.
Ideal For:
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to identify strong bearish momentum, manage risk visually, and use Fibonacci and fair value gaps on large bearish candles as potential areas for short entries with suggested stop loss areas and target profits.

Key Prices & LevelsThis indicator is designed to visualize key price levels & areas for NY trading sessions based on the price action from previous day, pre-market activity and key areas from NY session itself. The purpose is to unify all key levels into a single indicator, while allowing a user to control which levels they want to visualize and how.
The indicator identifies the following:
Asia Range High/Lows, along with ability to visualize with a box
London Range High/Lows, along with ability to visualize with a box
Previous Day PM Session High/Lows
Current Day Lunch Session High/Lows, starts appearing after 12pm EST once the lunch session starts
New York Open (8:30am EST) price
9:53 Open (root candle) price
New York Midnight (12:00am EST) price
Previous Day High/Lows
First 1m FVG after NY Session Start (after 9:30am), with the ability to configure minimum FVG size.
Opening Range Gap, showing regular market hours close price (previous day 16:15pm EST close), new session open price (9:30am EST open) and optionally the mid-point between the two
Asia Range 50% along with 2, 2.5, 4 and 4.5 deviations of the Asia range in both directions
Configurability:
Each price level can be turned off
Styles in terms of line type, color
Ability to turn on/off labels for price levels and highlighting of prices on price scale
Ability to control label text for price levels
How is it different:
Identifies novel concepts such as 9:53 open, root candle that can be used as a bounce/resistance area during AM/PM sessions as well as confirmation of direction once closed over/under to indicate price's willingness to continue moving in the same direction.
It also shows 1st 1m FVG after New York Session open, that can be used to determine direction of the price action depending on PA's reaction to that area. While both 9:53 and 1m FVG are 1m based markers, these levels are visualized by the indicator on all timeframes from 15s to 1h.
Additionally the indicator is able to both highlight key prices in the price scale pane as well as combine labels to minimize clutter when multiple levels have the same price.
Lastly for in-session ranges such as Lunch High/Low the indicator updates the range in real-time as opposed to waiting for the lunch session to be over.
