Historical LiquidityHistorical Liquidity Indicator – Backtesting Mitigated Hidden Order Blocks
🟠OVERVIEW: Historical Liquidity Indicator This script is a powerful backtesting tool and companion to our "Hidden Liquidity Indicator." It visualizes mitigated liquidity zones that have already been touched by price action. By showing a historical record of these events, it allows traders to systematically analyze past market structure, evaluate the effectiveness of liquidity zones, and refine their mitigation-based trading strategies.
🟠CORE LOGIC: The Connection to Hidden Liquidity The indicator's core logic is built upon the same proprietary methodology as our "Hidden Liquidity Indicator," which focuses on the relationship between Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and candle bodies. The central idea is to identify institutional footprints—specifically, where hidden order blocks form—before the price revisits and "mitigates" them.
The process involves two main steps:
1. Detection of Liquidity Zones: The script identifies and classifies a liquidity zone based on specific, rule-based criteria:
o Hidden Order Block (HOB): A strong zone where a candle body fits 100% inside a Fair Value Gap, and is untouched by any wicks. For an HOB to be considered valid, its equilibrium (midpoint) must be crossed by the FVG.
o Partial Hidden Order Block (PHOB): A weaker, but still significant, zone where a candle body fits at least 50% inside the FVG.
2. Tracking Mitigation: The indicator then continuously tracks these detected zones. A zone is considered mitigated when a subsequent candle's wick or body touches or enters at least 50% of that zone.
Once a zone is detected and subsequently mitigated according to these rules, the indicator stores this information and visualizes it historically on the chart. This allows traders to see exactly where and how these hidden liquidity zones influenced past price action.
🟠SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION The indicator offers extensive customization to adapt to various trading styles and analysis needs.
• General & Candle Settings:
o Show Partial HOB: Toggle the visibility of Partial Hidden Order Blocks (PHOBs).
o Candle back count: Determines the number of historical bars to be analyzed.
o BB Deviation / BB Min Size Perc: These settings allow for fine-tuning the underlying volatility calculation, which helps in identifying the specific conditions for HOB formation.
o Partial Min Size in FVG Perc: Customizes the percentage (default 50%) required for a candle body to be considered a PHOB.
• Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis: The indicator can check for liquidity zones on different timeframes. Users can select from pre-defined Low, Mid, or High Timeframe sets, or customize which specific timeframes are checked for analysis (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, 1D).
• Color & Visualization:
o HOBs and PHOBs: Users can customize the distinct colors for each type of liquidity zone.
o Box Border: Option to display or hide the border around the detected zones.
o Labels: Customize the color and text size of the labels describing each zone.
🟠PURPOSE & USAGE This indicator is specifically designed for systematic backtesting and strategic development. It is not intended to provide live trading signals. Its value lies in:
• Quantifying Success: It enables traders to measure the success rate of different HOB types across various timeframes and market conditions.
• Post-Mitigation Analysis: Users can analyze price behavior after a mitigation event, e.g., whether it led to continuation, reversal, or a retest.
• Identifying Support/Resistance: It helps to identify historical support and resistance levels that were formed by previously respected liquidity blocks, offering a data-driven alternative to traditional S/R methods.
🟠WHY IT MATTERS This indicator transforms subjective order block analysis into an objective, data-driven process. By providing a clear, visual history of which liquidity zones were actually respected or invalidated by the market, it empowers traders to build and validate their strategies on a foundation of empirical evidence rather than on intuition alone.

JCICT - ModelThe Unicorn model—an FVG (Fair Value Gap) nested within a breaker block—is one of the strongest algorithmic entry setups, often occurring after liquidity is taken at the opening price. Within the MMXM (Market Maker X Model) framework, this model typically forms after a phase of distribution or accumulation that aligns with the structured session cycle (Asia–London–New York). Notably, when a Unicorn setup forms after the Asian session—which usually consolidates or accumulates liquidity—it signals a high probability for reversal going into the London or New York sessions.
By applying a multiple time frame narrative, traders can align higher time frame bias (e.g., bullish on the Daily or H4) with lower time frame structures (such as M15–M5), where a breaker and FVG align. When price displaces through and reclaims the breaker block with strong impulse, it indicates that liquidity has been taken and the market is ready to move in the opposite direction. This is where the ICT methodology thrives—by seeking reversal points through liquidity manipulation rather than trend continuation.
If this model appears during killzones like the London Open or New York Open, and liquidity has been taken around the daily open, it significantly strengthens the probability of a high-quality reversal trade. Therefore, the Unicorn model is not merely a technical structure—it reflects a deeper narrative of smart money manipulation across sessions, confirmed by top-down bias and price action context.
EURUSD Kill Zone [Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital]EUR/USD Kil Zone
Core Logic: Navigating the New‑York Kill‑Zone
The EUR/USD Killzone is designed to exploit repeatable patterns that occur during the overlap of the London and New‑York trading sessions. Research shows that the New‑York “kill zone”—roughly 07:00–09:00 EST—produces the most dramatic moves in EUR‑ and USD‑linked currency pairs
During this window, large institutions often sweep out liquidity resting above or below the Asian and early‑London session extremes , triggering sharp reversals before a new intraday trend emerges. This is in contrast to the single pre-market sweeps occuring for GOLD/
This modeul uses ICT/Smart Money Concepts to read these patterns and waits for three confirmations before signalling a trade:
Liquidity Sweep & Rejection. Price must spike beyond the combined Asian and early‑London range and then reject that area (a sharp wick and opposite‑coloured candle), signalling that stops have been cleared. The module defines the Asian range from 00:00–05:00 EST and the London range from 02:00–05:00 EST, following the guideline that overlapping sessions produce the greatest volatility
Market Structure Break. It then waits for the 5‑minute price to close beyond the most recent swing high/low (pivot), confirming that a genuine shift in order flow has occurred rather than a simple stop‑run.
Fair‑Value‑Gap (FVG) Re‑Test. Upon the break, the script records the high and low of that 5‑minute “displacement” candle and defines a fair‑value gap—the imbalance between buyers and sellers. Rather than entering immediately, it sets a virtual limit order at the 50 % level of this gap. A trade is only triggered once price retraces to this mid‑point, providing a high‑probability, high‑reward entry.
These three filters help avoid common pitfalls when trading kill zones, such as false breakouts and news‑driven whipsaws. The indicator also monitors higher‑timeframe bias (4‑hour and daily charts) using 50‑ and 200‑period moving averages to gauge whether the intraday signal aligns with the broader trend.
Feature Set
The indicator provides a suite of visual and analytical tools to support disciplined trading:
Session Range Mapping: automatically draws the Asian (00:00–05:00 EST) and London (02:00–05:00 EST) session highs and lows, making it easy to see when price sweeps these levels.
Kill‑Zone Monitoring: a built‑in timer isolates the 07:30–09:00 EST window and limits the indicator to one trade per session to avoid over‑trading.
Pivot‑Break Detection: uses 5‑minute swing highs/lows to confirm that order flow has shifted before looking for entries.
Fair‑Value‑Gap Re‑test: defines an FVG from the displacement candle and waits for a 50 % retrace before triggering a signal. This improves risk‑to‑reward by entering at a discount (for longs) or premium (for shorts).
Higher‑Timeframe Dashboard: displays bullish/bearish/neutral biases on the 4‑hour and daily charts, plus a confidence rating (0–2) indicating how many of these timeframes agree with the signal direction.
Alerts: optional alerts can be configured for buy‑only, sell‑only or either‑direction signals.
Best Practices for Use
Align with Major Volatility Windows. The indicator is most effective during the New‑York kill zone. Avoid trading outside this window, and be aware of high‑impact news (e.g., FOMC announcements) that can distort price action
Check Higher‑Timeframe Bias. Use the dashboard to ensure the intraday signal aligns with the 4‑hour and daily trends. For instance, a long signal that aligns with a bullish daily bias carries higher conviction than one going against it.
Manage Risk Responsibly. Even with multiple filters, no strategy is foolproof. Use stop‑loss orders just beyond the liquidity sweep and size positions appropriately.
Combine with Fundamental Awareness. Check your economic calendar for European and U.S. data releases. If an important release occurs during the kill zone, consider standing aside or reducing risk.
Back‑test and Forward‑Test. Always validate the strategy across different market conditions and broker feeds. Pay attention to how spreads, volatility and news events influence the indicator.
Use as Part of a Toolkit. Consider combining the indicator with other confirmation tools such as momentum oscillators, volume analysis or price‑action patterns to refine entries further. Smart‑Money Concepts often use confluence, not a single signal.
What's in It for You?
The EUR/USD Liquidity Sweep Indicator distils institutional concepts—liquidity hunts, market‑structure shifts and fair‑value gaps—into an intuitive, automated tool. By waiting for a retrace into the displacement candle’s imbalance, it helps capture trades where risk‑to‑reward is skewed strongly in your favour. The dashboard encourages you to trade with the higher‑timeframe trend, and built‑in alerts ensure you never miss an opportunity.
In volatile kill‑zone environments, discipline and patience are vital. This indicator enforces both: it tracks session ranges, confirms structure, waits for a retrace, and triggers only when multiple conditions align. Coupled with sound risk management and your own judgement, it can become a cornerstone of a high‑probability trading plan.
Always remember that markets evolve. Continue to refine the indicator and your strategy as you gather more experience and data. The learning journey never ends, but this tool is designed to accelerate it.

Automated Scalping Signals with TP/SL Indicator [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Automated Scalping Signals with Take Profit & Stop Loss Indicator is a multi-timeframe trading system that combines market structure analysis with directional bias filtering to identify potential scalping opportunities. It detects Points of Interest (POI) including Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Order Blocks (OB) while cross-referencing entries with higher timeframe exponential moving average positioning to create systematic entry conditions.
The indicator features adaptive timeframe calculations that automatically scale analysis periods based on your chart timeframe, maintaining consistent analytical relationships across different trading sessions. It provides integrated trade management with stop loss calculation methods, configurable risk-reward ratios, and real-time performance tracking through dashboard displays showing trade statistics, bias direction, and active position status.
This advanced system is designed for low timeframe trading, typically performing optimally on 1 to 15-minute charts across popular instruments such as OANDA:XAUUSD , CME_MINI:MES1! , CME_MINI:ES1! , CME_MINI:MNQ1! , CBOT_MINI:YM1! , CBOT_MINI:MYM1! , BYBIT:BTCUSDT.P , BYBIT:ETHUSDT.P , or any asset and timeframe of your preference.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator operates using a dual-timeframe mathematical framework where higher timeframe exponential moving averages establish directional bias through cross-over analysis, while simultaneously scanning for specific market structure patterns on the POI timeframe. The timeframe calculation engine uses multiplication factors to determine analysis periods, ensuring the bias timeframe provides trend context while the POI timeframe captures structural formations.
The structural analysis begins with FVG detection, which systematically scans price action to identify imbalances where gaps exist between consecutive candle ranges with no overlapping wicks. When such gaps are detected, the algorithm measures their size against minimum thresholds to filter out insignificant formations. Concurrently, OB recognition analyzes three-candle sequences, examining specific open/close relationships that indicate potential institutional accumulation zones. Once these structural patterns are identified, the algorithm cross-references them against the higher timeframe bias direction, creating a validation filter that only permits entries aligned with the prevailing EMA cross-over state. When price subsequently intersects these validated POI zones, entry signals generate with the system calculating entry levels at zone midpoints, then applying the selected stop loss methodology combined with the configured risk-reward ratio to determine take profit placement.
To mirror realistic trading conditions, the indicator incorporates configurable slippage calculations that account for execution differences between intended and actual fill prices. When trades reach their take profit or stop loss levels, the algorithm applies slippage adjustments that worsen the exit prices in a conservative manner - reducing take profit fills and increasing stop loss impact. This approach ensures backtesting results reflect more realistic performance expectations by accounting for spread costs, market volatility during execution, and liquidity constraints that occur in live trading environments.
It also has a performance dashboard that continuously tracks and displays comprehensive trading metrics:
1/ Bias TF / POI TF: Displays the calculated timeframes used for bias analysis and POI detection, showing the actual periods (e.g., "15m / 5m") that result from the multiplier settings to confirm proper adaptive timeframe selection
2/ Bias Direction: Shows current market trend assessment (Bullish, Bearish, or Sideways) derived from EMA cross-over analysis to indicate which trade directions align with prevailing momentum
3/ Data Processing: Indicates how many price bars have been analyzed by the system, helping users verify if complete historical data has been processed for comprehensive strategy validation
4/ Total Trades: Displays the cumulative number of completed trades plus any active positions, providing volume assessment for statistical significance of other metrics
5/ Wins/Losses: Shows the raw count of profitable versus unprofitable trades, offering immediate insight into strategy effectiveness frequency
6/ Win Rate: Reveals the percentage of successful trades, where values above 50% generally indicate effective entry timing and values below suggest strategy refinement needs
7/ Total R-Multiple: Displays cumulative risk-reward performance across all trades, with positive values demonstrating profitable system operation and negative values indicating net losses requiring analysis
8/ Average R Win/Loss: Shows average risk-reward ratios for winning and losing trades separately, where winning averages approaching the configured take profit ratio indicate minimal slippage impact while losing averages near -1.0 suggest effective stop loss execution
9/ TP Ratio / Slippage: Displays the configured take profit ratio and slippage settings with calculated performance impact, showing how execution costs affect actual versus theoretical returns
10/ Profit Factor: Calculates the ratio of total winning amounts to total losing amounts, where values above 1.5 suggest robust profitability, values between 1.0-1.5 indicate modest success, and values below 1.0 show net losses
11/ Maximum Drawdown: Tracks the largest peak-to-trough decline in R-multiple terms, with smaller negative values indicating better capital preservation and risk control during losing streaks
🟢 How to Use
Start by applying the indicator to your chart and observe its performance across different market conditions to understand how it identifies bias direction and POI formations. Then navigate to the settings panel to configure the Bias Timeframe Multiplier for trend context sensitivity and POI Timeframe Multiplier for structural analysis frequency according to your trading preference and objectives.
Next, fine-tune the EMA periods in Bias Settings to control trend detection sensitivity and select your preferred POI types based on your analytical preference. Proceed to configure your Risk Management approach by selecting from the available stop loss calculation methods and setting the Take Profit ratio that aligns with your risk tolerance and profit objectives. Complete the setup by customizing Display Settings to control table visibility and trade visualization elements, adjusting UI positioning and colors for optimal chart readability, then activate Alert Conditions for automated notifications on trade entries, exits, and bias direction changes to support systematic trade management.

Path of Least ResistancePath of Least Resistance (PLR)
Concept Overview
The Path of Least Resistance indicator identifies key zones on your chart that act like "muddy" or "sticky" areas where price tends to get bogged down, creating choppy and unpredictable price action. Between these zones lie the "empty spaces" - clear paths where price can move freely with momentum and direction.
The Analogy: Muddy Fields vs Open Roads
Think of your chart like a landscape:
🟫 ZONES (Muddy/Sticky Areas)
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) from higher timeframes
Pivot wick zones from higher timeframe pivots
Areas where price gets "stuck" and churns
Like walking through thick mud - slow, choppy, unpredictable movement
Price action becomes erratic and difficult to trade
🟢 EMPTY SPACES (Open Roads)
The clear areas between zones
Where price can move freely with momentum
Like driving on an open highway - smooth, directional movement
The "Path of Least Resistance" for price movement
Trading Philosophy
AVOID Trading Within Zones:
Price action is typically choppy and unpredictable
Higher probability of false signals and whipsaws
Like trying to drive through mud - you'll get stuck
TRADE Through the Empty Spaces:
Look for moves that travel between zones
Price tends to move with momentum and direction
Higher probability setups with cleaner price action
Like taking the highway instead of back roads
Zone Types Detected
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
Imbalances from higher timeframe candles
Areas where price "owes" a return visit
Often act as magnets, creating choppy price action
Pivot Wick Zones
Upper and lower wicks from higher timeframe pivots
Rejection areas where price previously struggled
Often create resistance/support that leads to choppy movement
Color Coding System
The zones dynamically change color based on current price position:
🔴 RED ZONES : Price is below the zone (bearish context)
🟢 GREEN ZONES : Price is above the zone (bullish context)
🔘 GRAY ZONES : Price is within the zone (neutral/choppy area)
The "Mum Trades" Strategy
The best trades - what we call "Mum trades" (trades so obvious even your mum could spot them) - happen in the empty spaces between zones:
✅ High Probability Characteristics:
Clear directional movement between zones
Less noise and false signals
Higher momentum and follow-through
Cleaner technical patterns
❌ Avoid These Areas:
Trading within the muddy zones
Expecting clean moves through sticky areas
Fighting against the natural flow of price
Key Features
Auto Timeframe Detection : Automatically selects appropriate higher timeframe
Dynamic Zone Management : Overlapping zones are automatically cleaned up
Real-time Alerts : Get notified when price enters/exits zones
Visual Clarity : Clean zone display with extending boundaries
How to Use
Identify the Zones : Let the indicator mark the muddy areas
Find the Paths : Look for clear spaces between zones
Plan Your Trades : Target moves that travel through empty space
Avoid the Mud : Stay away from trading within the zones
Follow the Flow : Trade with the path of least resistance
Remember
Price, like water, always seeks the path of least resistance. By identifying where that path is clear (empty spaces) versus where it's obstructed (zones), you can align your trading with the natural flow of the market rather than fighting against it.
The goal is simple: Trade the highways, avoid the mud.
4-EMA Signals + MTF Analysis4-EMA Signals + MTF Analysis Indicator: User Guide
This indicator is designed for active traders; from scalpers / intra-day traders to swing-traders who simply want an easy to understand, simple, but yet comprehensive and easy-to-understand indicator with a quick overview of initial market momentum and overall market direction to assist the trader in their initial trading.
The main feature of this indicator is that It overlays four exponential moving averages (EMAs), and provides a dashboard of real-time trend signals for both buy and sell (long/short) scenarios.
Settings Overview
MA Period Setup
Custom: Set your own EMA periods.
Conservative, Aggressive, Fibonacci: Quickly apply preset EMA period combinations for different trading styles.
EMA Periods (Custom Setup)
Fast EMA: Shortest EMA, reacts quickly to price (default 7).
Medium-Short EMA: Intermediate speed (default 25).
Medium-Long EMA: Slower, filters out more noise (default 70).
Slow EMA: Longest-term trend (default 200).
(These settings can be adjusted to suit your individual needs)
Main Indicator Features
Four EMAs : Plotted in distinct colors (green, yellow, orange, red) for quick trend recognition - this can be altered in colour to your personal preferences.
Buy/Sell Signals : Triangles appear below/above bars when EMA crossovers occur, optionally filtered by volume - the volume filter when applied greatly reduces the influx of signals, only giving high-quality signals!
Trading Sessions + Backgrounds : A trading session feature has been added: (London, New York, Asia, Sydney) with the choice of a background to indicate each global trading session.
Volume Overlay : Volume bars and a blue volume moving average line for context.
Dashboard Table (Top Right):
Market Direction: Shows the overall EMA alignment (bullish, bearish, weak, consolidating).
The initial trend on the 5m, 15m, 1H, and 4H time-frame to give a quick snapshot of overall trend direction.
How to Use
Trend Identification :
-- Use the EMA alignment and dashboard table to quickly see if the market is bullish, bearish, or consolidating.
EMA Set-up
-- Adjust the EMA settings to your specific requirements, the signals will alter depending on the volatility of the instrument your trading.
Signal Confirmation :
-- ''Buy'' signals simply appear when the faster EMAs cross above slower EMAs in and ''Sell'' signals simply appear when they cross below.
Volume Context :
--Use the volume moving average and the optional volume filter to avoid signals during low-activity periods.
No Repainting :
-- All signals and dashboard readings are calculated using only confirmed, closed bars. What you see in real time is exactly what will appear in your back-test — no repainting or look-ahead bias.
Alerts / Notifications
Now for the fun part:
1. Enable Buy/Sell Signal Alerts: Get notifications when buy or sell signals occur.
2. For Alerts to function correctly, set the ''condition'' to the indicator itself.
3. Select ''EMA Bearish Cross'' or ''EMA Bullish Cross'' depending whether you want alerts for either buy/sell signals - Or one can simply set alerts for both scenarios.
4. For ''Interval'' set to ''Same as chart'' - So, the time-frame which you'd like to trade on.
5. For ''Trigger'' set to ''Once Per Bar Close''.
6. Save.
7. Wait for a signal to occur!
NOTE: Before placing a trade, it's often best to also assess the market conditions at that time also - and not rely solely on the signals, the signals are to assist, and it's often occurred a signal has shown, but a pull-back occurs, and a FVG in discount holds -- it's this FVG holding, accompanied by volume, that's the real entry, possibly.
Tip: For the cleanest results, use the indicator during the most active sessions and always check multi-time-frame trend alignment before entering trades. Good Luck! :)
CandelaCharts - Unicorn Model📝 Overview
The Unicorn Model is an advanced indicator that pinpoints high-probability reversal setups based on the ICT Unicorn formation. It uses a zigzag-based structure to detect engineered liquidity grabs followed by sharp displacements in the opposite direction—ideal for fade entries or the start of new trends.
The indicator is enhanced with macro time filters, allowing it to align model detections with key trading sessions and institutional flow windows.
The ICT Unicorn Model is a precision-driven intraday strategy rooted in smart money concepts. It combines time-of-day sensitivity, engineered liquidity runs, and institutional order flow to uncover high-quality trading opportunities.
📦 Features
Liquidity Levels: Projects forward-looking liquidity zones after a Unicorn model is confirmed, highlighting potential price targets. These zones act as magnet areas where price is likely to be drawn, helping traders manage exits, partials, and re-entries with greater precision.
Unicorn: The Unicorn formation utilizes a smart money framework and a dynamic zigzag detection method to identify engineered liquidity grabs—sharp sweeps of previous highs or lows—followed by impulsive reversals.
Macros: These time-based intervals represent key moments when institutional algorithms are most active, seeking liquidity, rebalancing, or delivering price to key levels like fair value gaps and liquidity pools.
Custom TF Pairing: Choose your preferred combination of entry timeframe and context timeframe. For example, trade 5m setups within a 1h HTF bias, allowing precise alignment of microstructure with broader directional intent.
HTF & LTF PD Arrays: Displays high- and low-timeframe PD Arrays (e.g., Fair Value Gaps, Inversion Fair Value Gaps) that act as zones of interest or rejection, enhancing confluence and risk control.
History: Backtest previous Unicorn setups directly on the chart. Toggle historical models to analyze past behavior, improve your confidence, and fine-tune your trade execution across varying market regimes.
Killzone Filter: Restrict signal generation to specific trading sessions or killzones (e.g., London Open, New York AM). This minimizes false positives in low-volume or overlapping ranges.
Standard Deviation: Dynamically calculates and plots four deviation bands from the model confirmation point. These levels offer insight into stretch targets, volatility bands, and potential mean-reversion zones.
Dashboard: A real-time control panel showing the active model, HTF candle timer, current directional bias, asset name, and session date—offering clarity and fast decision-making at a glance.

Through the phases of Formation, Invalidation, and Success, traders can effectively manage positions, minimize risk, and capitalize on the high-probability setups presented by the Unicorn Model.
⚡️ Showcase
The Unicorn Model is an advanced trading framework designed to elevate your market analysis and increase your trading edge. By leveraging smart money concepts and sophisticated pattern detection, it helps you spot key liquidity sweeps, reversal zones, and high-probability setups, enabling more precise entries, exits, and risk management tailored to market structure.
LTF PD Array
LTF PD Arrays are crucial to the Unicorn Model and must align with the Zigzag Breaker for the setup to be considered valid.
HTF PD Array
Higher-Timeframe PD Arrays deliver essential macro context, serving to validate both the direction and momentum of potential reversals.
Timeframe Alignment
Timeframe alignment is a fundamental element of the Unicorn trading model. By integrating multi-timeframe context, the model effectively identifies high-probability models.
Killzone Filters
Filter Unicorn Models according to key market sessions—Asia, London, New York AM, New York Launch, and New York PM—to target periods of high liquidity. This approach improves the accuracy and timing of trade setups by capturing moments when smart money is most active.
Macros
The Unicorn Model uses ICT Macro Times to identify key trading periods when institutional activity is most intense. By syncing setups with these critical windows, the model improves accuracy and provides better context for entries, risk management, and potential reversals.
Gain a trading advantage with the Unicorn Model — your essential tool for clearer insights, smarter decision-making, and more confident trade execution.

Breaker Blocks & Unicorns (with Deviations) by RiseBreaker Block and Unicorns (with Deviations) - The Highest Probability ICT Pattern
This advanced indicator identifies and tracks ICT Breaker Blocks, while incorporating powerful supplementary features including Unicorn patterns and customizable deviation levels.
These patterns develop through a precise market structure sequence culminating in structural breaks. Following Breaker Block confirmation, users can optionally enable highly customizable deviation levels. Additionally, the indicator can scan active Breaker Blocks for overlapping Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Inverted Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs)-(also known as "Unicorns") that represent high-probability trading opportunities, highly regarded in the ICT community.
This comprehensive tool provides unmatched functionality for traders and analysts seeking to track, backtest, and execute Breaker Block strategies. With its extensive feature set and granular customization options, it delivers capabilities that surpass existing alternatives in the market.
What is an ICT Breaker Block?
To explain this, we must understand the ABC sequence that form this pattern. It consists of:
Initial range (from A -> B)
First break point, commonly called "Manipulation" (C)
Second break, which is when the pattern is formed.
Each of these "points" consist of pivot levels, with an adjustable strength.
Breaker Blocks are invalidated and made inactive if price breaks the "C point", or manipulation.
Unicorns
Unicorns are Fair Value Gaps or Inverted Fair Value Gaps that overlap a Breaker Block. Breakers have their associated Unicorn, which is updated until price retraces into said gap.
Standard Deviations
This indicator has options to display deviations based on Breaker Blocks:
Breaker Deviations -> using the initial range (A -> B).
Manipulation Deviations -> using the manipulation (B -> C).

CommonUtils█ OVERVIEW
This library is a utility tool for Pine Script™ developers. It provides a collection of helper functions designed to simplify common tasks such as mapping user-friendly string inputs to Pine Script™ constants and formatting timeframe strings for display. The primary goal is to make main scripts cleaner, more readable, and reduce repetitive boilerplate code. It is envisioned as an evolving resource, with potential for new utilities to be added over time based on community needs and feedback.
█ CONCEPTS
The library primarily focuses on two main concepts:
Input Mapping
Pine Script™ often requires specific constants for function parameters (e.g., `line.style_dashed` for line styles, `position.top_center` for table positions). However, presenting these technical constants directly to users in script inputs can be confusing. Input mapping involves:
Allowing users to select options from more descriptive, human-readable strings (e.g., "Dashed", "Top Center") in the script's settings.
Providing functions within this library (e.g., `mapLineStyle`, `mapTablePosition`) that take these user-friendly strings as input.
Internally, these functions use switch statements or similar logic to convert (map) the input string to the corresponding Pine Script™ constant required by built-in functions.
This approach enhances user experience and simplifies the main script's logic by centralizing the mapping process.
Timeframe Formatting
Raw timeframe strings obtained from variables like `timeframe.period` (e.g., "1", "60", "D", "W") or user inputs are not always ideal for direct display in labels or panels. The `formatTimeframe` function addresses this by:
Taking a raw timeframe string as input.
Parsing this string to identify its numerical part and unit (e.g., minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, seconds, milliseconds).
Converting it into a more standardized and readable format (e.g., "1min", "60min", "Daily", "Weekly", "1s", "10M").
Offering an optional `customSuffix` parameter (e.g., " FVG", " Period") to append to the formatted string, making labels more descriptive, especially in multi-timeframe contexts.
The function is designed to correctly interpret various common timeframe notations used in TradingView.
█ NOTES
Ease of Use: The library functions are designed with simple and understandable signatures. They typically take a string input and return the corresponding Pine Script™ constant or a formatted string.
Default Behaviors: Mapping functions (`mapLineStyle`, `mapTablePosition`, `mapTextSize`) generally return a sensible default value (e.g., `line.style_solid` for `mapLineStyle`) in case of a non-matching input. This helps prevent errors in the main script.
Extensibility of Formatting: The `formatTimeframe` function, with its `customSuffix` parameter, allows for flexible customization of timeframe labels to suit the specific descriptive needs of different indicators or contexts.
Performance Considerations: These utility functions primarily use basic string operations and switch statements. For typical use cases, their impact on overall script performance is negligible. However, if a function like `formatTimeframe` were to be called excessively in a loop with dynamic inputs (which is generally not its intended use), performance should be monitored.
No Dependencies: This library is self-contained and does not depend on any other external Pine Script™ libraries.
█ EXPORTED FUNCTIONS
mapLineStyle(styleString)
Maps a user-provided line style string to its corresponding Pine Script™ line style constant.
Parameters:
styleString (simple string) : The input string representing the desired line style (e.g., "Solid", "Dashed", "Dotted" - typically from constants like LS1, LS2, LS3).
Returns: The Pine Script™ constant for the line style (e.g., line.style_solid). Defaults to line.style_solid if no match.
mapTablePosition(positionString)
Maps a user-provided table position string to its corresponding Pine Script™ position constant.
Parameters:
positionString (simple string) : The input string representing the desired table position (e.g., "Top Right", "Top Center" - typically from constants like PP1, PP2).
Returns: The Pine Script™ constant for the table position (e.g., position.top_right). Defaults to position.top_right if no match.
mapTextSize(sizeString)
Maps a user-provided text size string to its corresponding Pine Script™ size constant.

sizeString (simple string) : The input string representing the desired text size (e.g., "Tiny", "Small" - typically from constants like PTS1, PTS2).
Returns: The Pine Script™ constant for the text size (e.g., size.tiny). Defaults to size.small if no match.
formatTimeframe(tfInput, customSuffix)
Formats a raw timeframe string into a more display-friendly string, optionally appending a custom suffix.
Parameters:
tfInput (simple string) : The raw timeframe string from user input or timeframe.period (e.g., "1", "60", "D", "W", "1S", "10M", "2H").
customSuffix (simple string) : An optional suffix to append to the formatted timeframe string (e.g., " FVG", " Period"). Defaults to an empty string.
Returns: The formatted timeframe string (e.g., "1min", "60min", "Daily", "Weekly", "1s", "10min", "2h") with the custom suffix appended.
Anchored VWAP by Time (Math by Thomas)📄 Description
This tool lets you plot an Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) starting from any specific date and time you choose. Unlike standard VWAPs that reset daily or weekly, this version gives you full control to track institutional pricing zones from precise anchor points—such as key swing highs/lows, market open, or news-driven candles.
It’s especially useful for price action and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) traders who track liquidity, fair value gaps (FVGs), and institutional zones.
🇮🇳 For NSE India Traders
You can anchor VWAP to Indian market open (e.g., 9:15 AM IST) or major events like RBI policy, earnings, or breakout candles.
The time input uses UTC by default, so for Indian Standard Time (IST), remember:
9:15 AM IST = 3:45 AM UTC
3:30 PM IST = 10:00 AM UTC
⚙️ How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Open the settings panel.
Under “Anchor Start Time”, choose the date & time to begin the VWAP.
Use UTC format (adjust from IST if needed).
Customize the line color and thickness to suit your chart style.
The VWAP will begin plotting from that time forward.
🔎 Best Use Cases
Track VWAP from intraday range breakouts
Anchor from swing highs/lows to identify mean reversion zones
Combine with your FVGs, Order Blocks, or CHoCHs
Monitor VWAP reactions during key macro events or expiry days
🔧 Clean Design
No labels are used, keeping your chart clean.
Works on all timeframes (1min to Daily).
Designed for serious intraday & positional traders.

1. Introduction
The Swing-Failure-Pattern (SFP) – Confirmed Short indicator spots and tracks bearish SFPs on any market and timeframe, with defaults tuned for Daily charts.
A bearish SFP occurs when price sweeps a prior swing high (liquidity grab) and then decisively rejects lower , signalling a possible trend reversal or sharp pullback.
This script automatically:
Identifies the liquidity sweep & rejection (‐"SFP-SHORT" label)
Confirms directional intent via a structure-breaking close below the setup low
Paints a preferred sell-on-retest zone and tracks its validity
Identifies optimal entry opportunities when price retests the zone
Generates optional retest and entry alerts when trading conditions appear
Self-cleans after a configurable number of bars – keeping your chart tidy
Default Timeframe : Daily
Default Market : Crypto / FX majors
Works On : All symbols + timeframes – simply adjust parameters.
2. Core Concept – What Is an SFP?
Sweep (Liquidity Grab) – Price trades above a meaningful swing high, triggering stops & inducing breakout buyers.
Rejection – The same bar (or the next) closes back below the swept high, invalidating the breakout.
Structure Break – Bears confirm intent by closing below the "setup low" (the most recent pivot low before the sweep).
Retest – Price retraces to the sweep zone. Traders seek entries inside the upper half of that zone with invalidation just above the swing high.
The indicator encodes these four steps so you can spot high-quality bearish reversals without manual bar-by-bar analysis.
3. How the Indicator Works
Phase: Sweep & Rejection
Script Logic: high > lastSwingHigh and close < lastSwingHigh
Visual Cue: Red SFP-SHORT label above candle
Phase: Structure Break
Script Logic: Close < setupLow while pattern locked
Visual Cue: Zone (red line-box) plotted; SFP-SHORT label stays
Phase: Retest Tracking
Script Logic: Zone stays active for retestExpiry bars or until tapped
Visual Cue: Orange SFP-RETEST label when hit
Phase: Entry Signal
Script Logic: Price rejection within retest zone
Visual Cue: Green ENTRY label at optimal entry point
Phase: Expiry / Cleanup
Script Logic: Zone deleted after expiry
Visual Cue: Labels fade but remain visible for reference
All calculations reset after each completed/expired pattern ensuring fresh, uncluttered signals.
4. Visual Elements & Their Meaning
SFP-SHORT (red) – Bar that swept a prior high and closed below it.
Red Box / Line – Preferred sell zone between the swing high (upper bound) and dynamic lower bound (see sizing methods). Extends right until filled/expired.
SFP-RETEST (orange) – Bar that first tags the zone after confirmation.
ENTRY (green) – Appears when a high-probability entry signal occurs within the retest zone.
EXPIRED (gray) – Appears when the retest zone expires without being hit.
Visual Persistence – Labels fade but remain visible after expiry for reference and historical analysis.
5. Input Parameters Explained
Pivot Detection
Pivot left / right : Bars left/right of the pivot that must stay below/above it. Tip : Symmetrical values (3/3) work best for clean structure.
Retest Management
Retest expiry (bars) : Lifespan of a retest zone before it is considered stale. Default: 14 bars on Daily . Tip : Shorten for intraday, lengthen for swing trading.
Retest Zone Sizing
Sizing method : Select Static %, ATR-based or Hybrid logic for the lower boundary. Tip : Hybrid balances tight stops with realistic fills.
Static % : Fixed fraction of sweep range when Static/Hybrid is selected. Tip : Higher % deepens zone & widens stop.
ATR period : Look-back length for ATR when volatility sizing is used. Tip : Increase to smooth choppy markets.
ATR multiplier : Multiplier applied to ATR in ATR-based/Hybrid mode. Tip : Higher value widens zone during volatility.
Visual – Retest Zone
Show retest zone box : Toggles drawing of the semi-transparent sell zone box. Tip : Disable for ultra-clean look.
Retest box color : Fill colour of the box (alpha = transparency). Tip : Match your chart theme.
Max retest boxes : How many historical boxes remain visible (0 = unlimited). Tip : Lower to boost performance.
Only show active boxes : Automatically deletes a box once it's hit. Tip : Reduces clutter during back-testing.
Visual – General
Minimal mode : Hides most visuals apart from critical labels. Tip : Ideal for screenshots.
Show retest zone line : Draws a vertical line linking upper/lower boundaries. Tip : Acts as a quick depth guide.
Show ENTRY labels : Plots 'ENTRY' on optimal candles. Tip : Turn off for manual confirmation.
Labels
Label size : Overall size of all labels. Tip : tiny / small / normal.
Use simple label style : Switches to pixel text style for labels. Tip : Faster rendering on low-spec machines.

minPct / maxPct (hard-coded) : Internal floor/cap for Hybrid logic. Tip : Exposed in code for power-users only.
Zone-Sizing Methods
Static – Lower bound = sweepRange × staticPct.
ATR-based – Lower bound = ATR × multiplier, normalised to the sweepRange.
Hybrid – Uses the greater of Static and ATR-based (capped by an internal safety ceiling).
6. Step-by-Step Trading Playbook
Identify Context – Prefer setups against extended moves into obvious highs (e.g., daily swing highs, prior week high, round numbers).
Wait for SFP Confirmation – The indicator will label an SFP-SHORT only after the candle closes. Do not front-run.
Structure-Break Close – A close below setupLow turns the zone live. This is your go signal – prepare sell orders.
Place Orders in the Zone
Entry : Limit order anywhere between retestLower and the swing high.
Stop : 1-2 ticks/pips above the swing high.
Risk Management
Size position so risk per trade ≤ account risk % (common: 0.5-1%).
If no retest before retestExpiry bars → cancel order .
Targets
Conservative: First liquidity pocket / FVG below.
Aggressive: 2-3× risk or next HTF support.
Trail or Partial – Consider trailing stop once 1R is achieved or partial profit at 1R.
7. Example Workflow (Daily BTC-USDT)
BTC trades to a fresh one-month high at $31 050 sweeping prior highs.
Candle closes at $30 420 – below the swept high – SFP-SHORT label appears.
Two days later, candle closes below setupLow at $29 880 – confirmation & zone plotted (upper = $31 050, lower ≈ $30 550).
Five days later price retests the zone hitting $30 750 – SFP-RETEST alert fires, trade filled.
Stop placed @ $31 120 (70$ risk). 1R target = $29 680 reached four days later.
8. Alerts & Automation
SFP Short confirmed
Fires When: Structure-break close below setupLow.
Suggested Action: Prepare/submit sell-limit order in the zone.
SFP Short retest
Fires When: Price enters the retest zone.
Suggested Action: Monitor for entry signals or prepare for manual entry.
SFP Short Entry Signal
Fires When: Optimal entry conditions detected within retest zone.
Suggested Action: Execute short trade with defined risk parameters.
Use TradingView's Webhook URL to forward alerts to a trade-execution bot (e.g., PineConnector) for automated order placement.
9. Tips, Tricks & Best Practices
Combine with HTF Bias – Only take bearish SFPs in bearish weekly trend.
Watch Volume – High volume on the sweep bar adds conviction.
Time Window – SFPs during NY session FX / US session crypto tend to be stronger.
Cluster Zones – Multiple overlapping SFP zones increase probability; treat the cluster as one larger supply.
Avoid News – Skip SFPs forming minutes before high-impact macro news.
10. FAQ
Q: Can I use this on lower timeframes?
A: Yes – reduce retestExpiry (e.g., 15 bars on 15-minute) and test ATR-based sizing.
Q: Does it work for longs?
A: This script focuses on bearish SFPs. Clone & invert conditions for longs.
Q: Why did a zone disappear?
A: Either it expired (retestExpiry) without a retest or the cleanup routine removed old visuals to stay within Pine limits (500 objects per type).
Q: What's the difference between the "SFP-RETEST" and "ENTRY" signals?
A: "SFP-RETEST" indicates price has entered the zone, while "ENTRY" signals an optimal entry opportunity based on price rejection within the zone.
Q: How do I customize the label appearance?
A: Use the "Label size" and "Use simple label style" settings to adjust all labels to your preferred visual style.
Happy trading & trade safe!
11. Advanced Configuration & Asset-Class Playbook
Why does the retest box feel "too high" and how do I actually get filled? Use the quick tweaks below or the power-user code snippet to shape the zone to your personality and instrument.
11.1 Why the default box is shallow
The Static 25 % / ATR-Hybrid logic keeps stops small. Around 50 % of Daily BTC SFPs never look back – that's the cost of tight risk. If you need higher fill-rates, deepen the zone (11.2).
11.2 Three slider moves – no coding required
Retest zone sizing method – switch Static → Hybrid or ATR-based
Static % – raise from 0.25 → 0.45-0.60
ATR multiplier – raise from 1.0 → 1.5-2.0
Each turn pulls the lower edge of the box deeper while keeping the invalidation at the swing high.
11.3 One-liner for coders
To allow >60 % of the sweep range edit the source:
Old code:
minPct = 0.05
maxPct = 0.60
New code:
minPct = 0.05
maxPct = input.float(0.60, "Max retest % of sweep", step = 0.05, minval = 0.10, maxval = 0.95)
Then dial the cap up to ~0.80-0.90 from the settings panel.
11.4 If price never comes back…
No-retest partial – take 25-40 % size on the confirmation candle, stop above the high.
Lower-TF confirmation – drop to 4 h / 1 h and hunt an internal SFP or bearish FVG inside the sweep.
ATR trail – if price dumps immediately, trail the stop above each new lower-high.
11.5 Asset-Class Cheat-Sheet
Crypto – Daily : Static %: 0.20-0.35, ATR mult: 1.0, Retest Expiry: 12-20 . Notes : High volatility; sweeps expand fast.
FX Majors – 4 h/D : Static %: 0.25-0.40, ATR mult: 1.2, Retest Expiry: 15-25 . Notes : ATR handles session compression.
Index Futures – 1 h : Static %: 0.30-0.50, ATR mult: 1.5, Retest Expiry: 10-20 . Notes : Hybrid recommended; gaps tighten sweeps.
US Equities – 30 m : Static %: 0.35-0.55, ATR mult: 1.5-2.0, Retest Expiry: 10-14 . Notes : Consider no-retest entry on earnings spikes.

ICT-Elliott Hybrid Oscillator네이버 프리미엄 콘텐츠 > 재테크 사관학교 검색
This indicator uses Elliott Wave Theory and ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts to help easily and accurately predict when asset prices like cryptocurrencies or stocks will rise or fall.
📌 Easy Explanation of Terms
✅ What is Elliott Wave?
A theory stating that price movements follow a specific pattern (5 upward waves + 3 downward waves) repeatedly. Simply put, it's about repetitive cycles of rises and falls creating overall trends.
✅ What is ICT Theory?
A strategy that identifies optimal trading times by observing critical price areas traded by institutional investors (Order Blocks), imbalances in price (Fair Value Gaps - FVG), and major turning points (Break of Structure - BOS).
📈 Signals Provided by the Indicator
🔹 ① Pivot Highs & Lows
Red ▼: Short-term high (increased likelihood of price falling)
Green ▲: Short-term low (increased likelihood of price rising)
🔹 ② Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Green highlighted area: Zone where price is likely to rise again
Red highlighted area: Zone where price is likely to fall again
🔹 ③ Break of Structure (BOS)
Blue "BOS Up": Indicates a shift to an upward trend
Orange "BOS Down": Indicates a shift to a downward trend
⏳ Recommended Timeframe Combinations
| Major Trend (Basic Analysis) | Entry Point (Detailed Analysis) | Short-term Timing (Precision Analysis) |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| 4-hour | 1-hour | 15-minute |
Use the 4-hour timeframe to gauge overall trends,
the 1-hour timeframe to pinpoint exact entry and exit points,
and the 15-minute timeframe for precise timing.
Include Source
🕯 Recommended Candle Patterns
* Pin Bar (Long wick candle) → Trend reversal signal
* Engulfing Candle (fully covering previous candle) → Strong trend reversal signal
* Hammer & Shooting Star (small body with a long wick) → Bullish or bearish reversal signal
* Doji (balance between buyers and sellers) → High potential for trend reversal
US30 Smart Money 5M/4H Strategy🧠 How It Works
✅ 1. 4H Trend Bias Detection
Uses the 4-hour chart (internally) to determine if the market is in an uptrend or downtrend.
Background turns green for bullish trend, red for bearish trend.
This helps filter trades — only take longs during uptrend, shorts during downtrend.
✅ 2. Liquidity Sweeps (Stop Hunts) on 5M
Highlights candles that break previous highs/lows and then reverse (typical of institutional stop raids).
Draws a shaded red box above sweep-high candles and green box under sweep-lows.
These indicate key reversal zones.
✅ 3. Order Block Zones
Detects bullish/bearish engulfing patterns after liquidity sweeps.
Draws a supply or demand zone box extending forward.
These zones show where institutions likely placed large orders.
✅ 4. FVG Midpoint from 30-Min Chart
Detects Fair Value Gaps (imbalances) on the 30-minute chart.
Plots a line at the midpoint of the gap (EQ level), which is often revisited for entries or rejections.
✅ 5. Buy/Sell Signals (Non-Repainting)
Buy = 4H uptrend + 5M liquidity sweep low + bullish engulfing candle.
Sell = 4H downtrend + 5M liquidity sweep high + bearish engulfing.
Prints green “BUY” or red “SELL” label on the chart — these do not repaint.
📈 How to Use It
Wait for trend bias — only take trades in the direction of the 4H trend.
Watch for liquidity sweep boxes — these hint a stop hunt just occurred.
Look for a signal label (BUY/SELL) — confirms entry criteria.
Use FVG EQ lines & Order Block zones as confluence or targets.
Take trades after NY open (9:30 AM EST) for best momentum.
ICT Turtle Soup (Liquidity Reversal)ICT Turtle Soup — Liquidity Reversal Detection
Trap the Trap: A Precision Reversal Strategy from the Inner Circle Trader Playbook
This indicator implements the Turtle Soup liquidity reversal setup — a widely used ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concept that targets false breakouts beyond recent swing highs or lows. These patterns typically occur when price grabs liquidity above or below a known level, then snaps back, trapping retail traders and creating a high-probability reversal scenario.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Detects Liquidity Sweeps Above/Below Key Swing Levels
Uses a customizable swing lookback to identify recent swing highs and lows.
Triggers a Bearish Turtle Soup when price runs above a previous swing high and closes back below.
Triggers a Bullish Turtle Soup when price sweeps below a prior swing low and closes back above.
Plots Clear Visual Signals
Reversal signals appear as 🐢🔻 (Bearish) or 🐢🔺 (Bullish) markers directly on your chart.
Optional labels can be enabled for enhanced journaling and review.
Real-Time Alerts
Receive alert notifications when a Turtle Soup setup is detected — ideal for scalpers or intraday traders watching for reversals around liquidity pools.
⚙️ Customization Options:
Set the swing lookback sensitivity (default: 5)
Enable or disable labels
Choose label font size
Customize colors for bullish and bearish signals
💡 How to Use:
Deploy on intraday timeframes (e.g. 5m–15m) for high-resolution liquidity analysis.
Watch for signals at key highs/lows, session extremes, or zones where liquidity is likely resting.
Combine with tools like FVGs, Order Blocks, and OTE zones for layered confirmation.
🔗 Combine With These Tools for a Complete SMC Edge:
✅ First FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector
✅ ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + OB + Fibonacci OTE Levels
✅ Liquidity Levels — Smart Swing Lows
Together, these tools form a high-precision Smart Money toolkit — helping traders map, anticipate, and act on institutional-level liquidity events with clarity and confidence.
ICT Turtle Soup (Liquidity Reversal)ICT Turtle Soup — Liquidity Reversal Detection
Classic Liquidity Trap Reversal Strategy for Smart Money Traders
This indicator implements the ICT Turtle Soup concept — a classic liquidity-based reversal pattern — which occurs when price runs above or below a recent swing level to grab liquidity, then sharply reverses. This pattern is commonly used in Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Inner Circle Trader (ICT) strategies to anticipate false breakouts and high-probability reversals.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Identifies Swing Highs & Lows
Detects recent swing highs and lows using a customizable lookback period.
Tracks Liquidity Grabs
A bearish Turtle Soup setup is triggered when price breaks above a recent swing high but closes back below it.
A bullish Turtle Soup setup is triggered when price breaks below a recent swing low but closes back above it.
These conditions often signal liquidity traps, where price sweeps resting orders before reversing.
Plots Signals Directly on the Chart
Turtle Soup setups are marked with 🐢🔻 (bearish) and 🐢🔺 (bullish) labels.
Optional full-text labels can also be displayed for clarity and journaling.
Includes Alert Conditions
Alerts can be enabled to notify you of bullish or bearish Turtle Soup reversals in real-time.
⚙️ Customization Features:
Adjustable swing lookback period
Enable/disable Turtle Soup labels
Set label font size
Choose your preferred bullish/bearish signal colors
💡 How to Use:
Add this script to your chart (ideally on intraday timeframes such as 5m–15m).
Wait for a Turtle Soup signal near a key swing high/low or liquidity zone.
Combine with other confirmation tools (e.g., FVGs, Order Blocks, OTE) for stronger setups.
Use alerts to stay ahead of fast-moving reversals.
🧠 Why It Works:
Turtle Soup setups are rooted in liquidity theory — they exploit the market’s tendency to sweep obvious swing levels before reversing. These moves often trap retail traders and mark the beginning of Smart Money entries.
🔗 Best Used With:
Maximize the edge by combining this with other SMC tools:
✅ First FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector
✅ ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + OB + Fibonacci OTE Levels
✅ Liquidity Levels — Smart Swing Lows
Together, they create a complete ecosystem for identifying, confirming, and executing liquidity-driven trade setups with precision.
