[COG]TMS Crossfire 🔍 TMS Crossfire: Guide to Parameters
📊 Core Parameters
🔸 Stochastic Settings (K, D, Period)
- **What it does**: These control how the first stochastic oscillator works. Think of it as measuring momentum speed.
- **K**: Determines how smooth the main stochastic line is. Lower values (1-3) react quickly, higher values (3-9) are smoother.
- **D**: Controls the smoothness of the signal line. Usually kept equal to or slightly higher than K.
- **Period**: How many candles are used to calculate the stochastic. Standard is 14 days, lower for faster signals.
- **For beginners**: Start with the defaults (K:3, D:3, Period:14) until you understand how they work.
🔸 Second Stochastic (K2, D2, Period2)
- **What it does**: Creates a second, independent stochastic for stronger confirmation.
- **How to use**: Can be set identical to the first one, or with slightly different values for dual confirmation.
- **For beginners**: Start with the same values as the first stochastic, then experiment.
🔸 RSI Length
- **What it does**: Controls the period for the RSI calculation, which measures buying/selling pressure.
- **Lower values** (7-9): More sensitive, good for short-term trading
- **Higher values** (14-21): More stable, better for swing trading
- **For beginners**: The default of 11 is a good balance between speed and reliability.
🔸 Cross Level
- **What it does**: The centerline where crosses generate signals (default is 50).
- **Traditional levels**: Stochastics typically use 20/80, but 50 works well for this combined indicator.
- **For beginners**: Keep at 50 to focus on trend following strategies.
🔸 Source
- **What it does**: Determines which price data is used for calculations.
- **Common options**:
- Close: Most common and reliable
- Open: Less common
- High/Low: Used for specialized indicators
- **For beginners**: Stick with "close" as it's most commonly used and reliable.
🎨 Visual Theme Settings
🔸 Bullish/Bearish Main
- **What it does**: Sets the overall color scheme for bullish (up) and bearish (down) movements.
- **For beginners**: Green for bullish and red for bearish is intuitive, but choose any colors that are easy for you to distinguish.
🔸 Bullish/Bearish Entry
- **What it does**: Colors for the entry signals shown directly on the chart.
- **For beginners**: Use bright, attention-grabbing colors that stand out from your chart background.
🌈 Line Colors
🔸 K1, K2, RSI (Bullish/Bearish)
- **What it does**: Controls the colors of each indicator line based on market direction.
- **For beginners**: Use different colors for each line so you can quickly identify which line is which.
⏱️ HTF (Higher Timeframe) Settings
🔸 HTF Timeframe
- **What it does**: Sets which higher timeframe to use for filtering (e.g., 240 = 4 hour chart).
- **How to choose**: Should be at least 4x your current chart timeframe (e.g., if trading on 15min, use 60min or higher).
- **For beginners**: Start with a timeframe 4x higher than your trading chart.
🔸 Use HTF Filter
- **What it does**: Toggles whether the higher timeframe filter is applied or not.
- **For beginners**: Keep enabled to reduce false signals, especially when learning.
🔸 HTF Confirmation Bars
- **What it does**: How many bars must confirm a trend change on higher timeframe.
- **Higher values**: More reliable but slower to react
- **Lower values**: Faster signals but more false positives
- **For beginners**: Start with 2-3 bars for a good balance.
📈 EMA Settings
🔸 Use EMA Filter
- **What it does**: Toggles price filtering with an Exponential Moving Average.
- **For beginners**: Keep enabled for better trend confirmation.
🔸 EMA Period
- **What it does**: Length of the EMA for filtering (shorter = faster reactions).
- **Common values**:
- 5-13: Short-term trends
- 21-50: Medium-term trends
- 100-200: Long-term trends
- **For beginners**: 5-10 is good for short-term trading, 21 for swing trading.
🔸 EMA Offset
- **What it does**: Shifts the EMA forward or backward on the chart.
- **For beginners**: Start with 0 and adjust only if needed for visual clarity.
🔸 Show EMA on Chart
- **What it does**: Toggles whether the EMA appears on your main price chart.
- **For beginners**: Keep enabled to see how price relates to the EMA.
🔸 EMA Color, Style, Width, Transparency
- **What it does**: Customizes how the EMA line looks on your chart.
- **For beginners**: Choose settings that make the EMA visible but not distracting.
🌊 Trend Filter Settings
🔸 Use EMA Trend Filter
- **What it does**: Enables a multi-EMA system that defines the overall market trend.
- **For beginners**: Keep enabled for stronger trend confirmation.
🔸 Show Trend EMAs
- **What it does**: Toggles visibility of the trend EMAs on your chart.
- **For beginners**: Enable to see how price moves relative to multiple EMAs.
🔸 EMA Line Thickness
- **What it does**: Controls how the thickness of EMA lines is determined.
- **Options**:
- Uniform: All EMAs have the same thickness
- Variable: Each EMA has its own custom thickness
- Hierarchical: Automatically sized based on period (longer periods = thicker)
- **For beginners**: "Hierarchical" is most intuitive as longer-term EMAs appear more dominant.
🔸 EMA Line Style
- **What it does**: Sets the line style (solid, dotted, dashed) for all EMAs.
- **For beginners**: "Solid" is usually clearest unless you have many lines overlapping.
🎭 Trend Filter Colors/Width
🔸 EMA Colors (8, 21, 34, 55)
- **What it does**: Sets the color for each individual trend EMA.
- **For beginners**: Use a logical progression (e.g., shorter EMAs brighter, longer EMAs darker).
🔸 EMA Width Settings
- **What it does**: Controls the thickness of each EMA line.
- **For beginners**: Thicker lines for longer EMAs make them easier to distinguish.
🔔 How These Parameters Work Together
The power of this indicator comes from how these components interact:
1. **Base Oscillator**: The stochastic and RSI components create the main oscillator
2. **HTF Filter**: The higher timeframe filter prevents trading against larger trends
3. **EMA Filter**: The EMA filter confirms signals with price action
4. **Trend System**: The multi-EMA system identifies the overall market environment
Think of it as multiple layers of confirmation, each adding more reliability to your trading signals.
💡 Tips for Beginners
1. **Start with defaults**: Use the default settings first and understand what each element does
2. **One change at a time**: When customizing, change only one parameter at a time
3. **Keep notes**: Write down how each change affects your results
4. **Backtest thoroughly**: Test any changes on historical data before trading real money
5. **Less is more**: Sometimes simpler settings work better than complicated ones
Remember, no indicator is perfect - always combine this with proper risk management and other forms of analysis!

2:30 [LuciTech]this is a technical analysis tool designed to highlight key price levels and patterns during a specific trading window, based on UK time (Europe/London). It overlays visual elements on the chart, including a 12 PM reference line, Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) levels, a highlighted 2:30 PM candle, and Engulfing Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). This indicator is intended for traders who focus on intraday price action and liquidity zones.
Features
The 12 PM Line displays a vertical line at 12:00 PM (UK time) to mark the start of the session. It’s customizable, allowing you to enable or disable it and adjust its color.
BSL/SSL Lines track the highest high (BSL) and lowest low (SSL) from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (UK time). These lines extend horizontally until 3:30 PM, after which they remain static at their last recorded levels. You can customize them by enabling or disabling visibility, adjusting colors, choosing a line style (solid, dashed, or dotted), and setting the width.
The 2:30 PM Candle highlights the candle at 2:30 PM (UK time) with a distinct color. It’s customizable, with options to enable or disable it and change its color.
Engulfing FVG (Fair Value Gap) identifies bullish and bearish engulfing patterns with a gap from the prior candle’s range. It draws a shaded box over the FVG area, and you can customize it by enabling or disabling it and adjusting the box color.
How It Works
The indicator operates within a session starting at 12:00 PM (UK time). BSL/SSL levels update between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM, with lines extending until 3:30 PM. After 3:30 PM, these lines freeze.
BSL/SSL lines show the highest price (BSL) and lowest price (SSL) reached during the 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM window. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, marking the final range boundaries.
The 2:30 PM candle emphasizes a key timestamp, often of interest to intraday traders.
Engulfing FVGs detect significant price gaps created by engulfing candles, which may indicate potential reversal or continuation zones.
Settings
12 PM Line Settings let you toggle visibility and set the line color.
BSL/SSL Line Settings allow you to toggle visibility, set BSL and SSL colors, choose a line style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), and adjust width (1-4).
2:30 Candle Settings let you toggle visibility and set the candle color.
Engulfing FVG Settings allow you to toggle visibility and set the box color.
Interpretation
The 12 PM Line serves as a reference for the session start.
BSL/SSL Lines may act as potential support or resistance zones or highlight liquidity areas. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, showing the session’s final range.
The 2:30 PM Candle can be monitored for price action signals, such as reversals or breakouts.
Engulfing FVGs shaded areas may indicate imbalances in supply and demand, useful for identifying trade opportunities or stop-loss placement.
Notes
The timezone is set to Europe/London (UK time). Ensure your chart’s timezone aligns for accurate results.
This indicator is best used on intraday timeframes, such as 1-minute or 5-minute charts.
It provides visual aids for analysis and does not generate buy or sell signals on its own.

Boilerplate Configurable Strategy [Yosiet]This is a Boilerplate Code!
Hello! First of all, let me introduce myself a little bit. I don't come from the world of finance, but from the world of information and communication technologies (ICT) where we specialize in data processing with the aim of automating it and eliminating all human factors and actors in the processes. You could say that I am an algotrader.
That said, in my journey through trading in recent years I have understood that this world is often shown to be incomplete. All those who want to learn about trading only end up learning a small part of what it really entails, they only seek to learn how to read candlesticks. Therefore, I want to share with the entire community a fraction of what I have really understood it to be.
As a computer scientist, the most important thing is the data, it is the raw material of our work and without data you simply cannot do anything. Entropy is simple: Data in -> Data is transformed -> Data out.
The quality of the outgoing data will directly depend on the incoming data, there is no greater mystery or magic in the process. In trading it is no different, because at the end of the day it is nothing more than data. As we often say, if garbage comes in, garbage comes out.
Most people focus on the results only, on the outgoing data, because in the end we all want the same thing, to make easy money. Very few pay attention to the input data, much less to the process.
Now, I am not here to delude you, because there is no bigger lie than easy money, but I am here to give you a boilerplate code that will help you create strategies where you only have to concentrate on the quality of the incoming data.
To the Point
The code is a strategy boilerplate that applies the technique that you decide to customize for the criteria for opening a position. It already has the other factors involved in trading programmed and automated.
1. The Entry
This section of the boilerplate is the one that each individual must customize according to their needs and knowledge. The code is offered with two simple, well-known strategies to exemplify how the code can be reused for your own benefits.
For the purposes of this post on tradingview, I am going to use the simplest of the known strategies in trading for entries: SMA Crossing
// SMA Cross Settings
maFast = ta.sma(close, length)
maSlow = ta.sma(open, length)
The Strategy Properties for all cases published here:
For Stock TSLA H1 From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Crypto XMR-USDT 30m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Forex EUR-USD 5m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
But the goal of this post is not to sell you a dream, else to show you that the same Entry decision works very well for some and does not for others and with this boilerplate code you only have to think of entries, not exits.
2. Schedules, Days, Sessions
As you know, there are an infinite number of markets that are susceptible to the sessions of each country and the news that they announce during those sessions, so the code already offers parameters so that you can condition the days and hours of operation, filter the best time parameters for a specific market and time frame.
3. Data Filtering
The data offered in trading are numerical series presented in vectors on a time axis where an endless number of mathematical equations can be applied to process them, with matrix calculation and non-linear regressions being the best, in my humble opinion.
4. Read Fundamental Macroeconomic Events, News
The boilerplate has integration with the tradingview SDK to detect when news will occur and offers parameters so that you can enable an exclusion time margin to not operate anything during that time window.
5. Direction and Sense
In my experience I have found the peculiarity that the same algorithm works very well for a market in a time frame, but for the same market in another time frame it is only a waste of time and money. So now you can easily decide if you only want to open LONG, SHORT or both side positions and know how effective your strategy really is.
6. Reading the money, THE PURPOSE OF EVERYTHING
The most important section in trading and the reason why many clients usually hire me as a financial programmer, is reading and controlling the money, because in the end everyone wants to win and no one wants to lose. Now they can easily parameterize how the money should flow and this is the genius of this boilerplate, because it is what will really decide if an algorithm (Indicator: A bunch of math equations) for entries will really leave you good money over time.
7. Managing the Risk, The Ego Destroyer
Many trades, little money. Most traders focus on making money and none of them know about statistics and the few who do know something about it, only focus on the winrate. Well, with this code you can unlock what really matters, the true success criteria to be able to live off of trading: Profit Factor, Sortino Ratio, Sharpe Ratio and most importantly, will you really make money?
8. Managing Emotions
Finally, the main reason why many lose money is because they are very bad at managing their emotions, because with this they will no longer need to do so because the boilerplate has already programmed criteria to chase the price in a position, cut losses and maximize profits.
In short, this is a boilerplate code that already has the data processing and data output ready, you only have to worry about the data input.
“And so the trader learned: the greatest edge was not in predicting the storm, but in building a boat that could not sink.”
DISCLAIMER
This post is intended for programmers and quantitative traders who already have a certain level of knowledge and experience. It is not intended to be financial advice or to sell you any money-making script, if you use it, you do so at your own risk.

// StochRSI transformation
stochRSI = ((ta.highest(rsi, stoch_length) - ta.lowest(rsi, stoch_length)) != 0) ?
(100 * (rsi - ta.lowest(rsi, stoch_length))) /
(ta.highest(rsi, stoch_length) - ta.lowest(rsi, stoch_length)) : 0
2. Signal Generation System:
// Core signal conditions
crossover_buy = crossOver(sk, sd, cross_threshold)
valid_buy_zone = sk < 30 and sd < 30
price_within_sma_bands = close <= sma_high and close >= sma_low
// Enhanced signal generation
if crossover_buy and valid_buy_zone and price_within_sma_bands and htf_allows_long
if is_bullish_candle
long_signal := true
else
awaiting_bull_confirmation := true
3. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
= request.security(syminfo.tickerid, mtf_period,
)
The HTF filter looks at a higher timeframe (default: 4H) to confirm the trend
It only allows:
Long trades when the higher timeframe is bullish
Short trades when the higher timeframe is bearish
📈 Trading Application Guide:
1. Signal Identification
• Oversold Opportunities (< 30 level)
- Look for bullish crosses of K-line above D-line
- Confirm with higher timeframe alignment
- Wait for price action confirmation (bullish candle)
• Overbought Conditions (> 70 level)
- Watch for bearish crosses of K-line below D-line
- Verify higher timeframe condition
- Confirm with bearish price action
2. Divergence Trading
• Bullish Divergence
- Price makes lower lows while indicator makes higher lows
- Most effective when occurring in oversold territory
- Use with support levels for entry timing
• Bearish Divergence
- Price makes higher highs while indicator shows lower highs
- Most reliable in overbought conditions
- Combine with resistance levels
3. Wave Effect Analysis
• Strong Waves
- Multiple wave lines moving in same direction indicate momentum
- Wider wave spread suggests increased volatility
- Use for trend strength confirmation
• Energy Field
- Higher intensity in trading zones suggests stronger moves
- Use for momentum confirmation
- Watch for energy field convergence with price action
The energy field is like a heat map that shows momentum strength
It gets stronger (more visible) when:
Price is in oversold (<30) or overbought (>70) zones
The indicator lines are moving apart quickly
A strong signal is forming
Think of it as a "strength meter" - the more visible the energy field, the stronger the potential move
4. Risk Management Integration
• Entry Confirmation
- Wait for all signal components to align
- Use higher timeframe for trend direction
- Confirm with price action and SMA positions
• Stop Loss Placement
- Consider placing stops beyond recent swing points
- Use ATR for dynamic stop calculation
- Account for market volatility
5. Position Management
• Partial Profit Taking
- Consider scaling out at overbought/oversold levels
- Use wave effect intensity for exit timing
- Monitor energy field for momentum shifts
• Trade Duration
- Short-term: Use primary signals in trading zones
- Swing trades: Focus on divergence signals
- Position trades: Utilize higher timeframe signals
⚠️ Important Usage Notes:
• Avoid:
- Trading against strong trends
- Relying solely on single signals
- Ignoring higher timeframe context
- Over-leveraging based on signals
Remember: This tool is designed to assist in analysis but should never be used as the sole decision-maker for trades. Always maintain proper risk management and combine with other forms of analysis.

💻 Technical Code Breakdown
1. Core Calculations
// Base calculations for EMAs
ema_1 = ta.ema(close, ema_length_1)
ema_2 = ta.ema(close, ema_length_2)
ema_3 = ta.ema(close, ema_length_3)
ema_4 = ta.ema(close, ema_length_4)
// Proximity calculation for entry validation
ema_prox_raw = math.abs(close - ema_1) / ema_1 * 100
is_close_to_ema_long = close > ema_1 and ema_prox_raw <= prox_percent
```
### 2. Squeeze Detection System
```pine
// Bollinger Bands setup
BB_basis = ta.sma(close, length)
BB_dev = ta.stdev(close, length)
BB_upper = BB_basis + BB_mult * BB_dev
BB_lower = BB_basis - BB_mult * BB_dev
// Keltner Channels setup
KC_basis = ta.sma(close, length)
KC_range = ta.sma(ta.tr, length)
KC_upper_high = KC_basis + KC_range * KC_mult_high
KC_lower_high = KC_basis - KC_range * KC_mult_high
```
### 3. Scoring System Implementation
```pine
// Band Convergence Score
band_ratio = BB_width / KC_width
convergence_score = math.max(0, 40 * (1 - band_ratio))
// Price Position Score
price_range = math.abs(close - KC_basis) / (KC_upper_low - KC_lower_low)
position_score = 20 * (1 - price_range)
// Final Score Calculation
squeeze_score = convergence_score + position_score + vol_score + mom_score
```
### 4. Signal Generation
```pine
// Entry Signal Logic
long_signal = squeeze_release and
is_momentum_positive and
(not use_ema_trend or (bullish_trend and is_close_to_ema_long)) and
is_bullish_candle
short_signal = squeeze_release and

True Liquidity BlocksSo basically I've been deep diving into liquidity trading concepts similar to ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and developed an indicator that breaks down market movement through a volume-centric lens.
Key Concept:
Markets move not just by price, but by resolving trapped positions
Volume segments, not time intervals, show true market dynamics
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) becomes a key structural reference
What Makes This Different:
Tracks volume segments instead of fixed time frames
Identifies "trapped" trader positions
Measures liquidity level efficiency
Color-codes bars based on nearest liquidity zone
Indicator Features:
Cyan/Red liquidity levels showing buy/sell pressure
Efficiency tracking for each level
Dynamic volume-based segmentation
Bar coloring to show nearest liquidity zone
Theoretical Inspiration: Viewed markets as energy systems where:
Positions create potential energy
Price movement resolves this energy
Trends form through systematic position liquidation
VWAP Recalculation in Each Segment:
Segment Start:
VWAP resets when volume threshold User Inputtable (600,000) is reached
Uses the last 4 price values (High, Low, Close, Close) for calculation
Weighted by volume traded during that segment
Calculation Method:
pineCopy = ta.vwap(hlcc4, na(segment_start) ? true : na, 1)
hlcc4: Combines high, low, close prices
na(segment_start): Ensures reset at new segment
Weighted by volume, not equal time intervals
Key Points:
Dynamic recalculation each segment
Reflects most recent trading activity
Provides real-time fair price reference
Tracks positioning
Essentially, VWAP resets and recalculates with each new volume segment, creating a rolling, volume-weighted average price that maps trader positioning.
BSL (Buy Side Liquidity) and SSL (Sell Side Liquidity) Explained:
When a volume segment closes relative to VWAP, it creates natural positioning traps:
BSL (Cyan) - Created when price closes BELOW THAT SEGMENT'S VWAP:
Bulls are positioned BELOW VWAP (trapped)
Shorts are positioned ABOVE VWAP (In Profit)
SSL (Red) - Created when price closes ABOVE THAT SEGMENT"S VWAP:
Bulls are positioned ABOVE VWAP (trapped)
Shorts are positioned BELOW VWAP (trapped)
Core Mechanism:
VWAP acts as a reference point for trader positioning
Trapped positions create inherent market tension
Levels expand to show accumulating pressure
Color-coded for quick identification of potential move direction
The goal: Visualize where traders are likely "stuck" and must eventually resolve their positions or liquidate other's, driving market movement.
It was just a fun experiment but If ya'll have any thoughts on it or what I could do to improve it, I would appreciate it.
Just a little note, It's optimized for futures, but if u uncheck the "Rest at Futures Open ?" setting, it allow full reign of any asset with volume data.

MMXM ICT [TradingFinder] Market Maker Model PO3 CHoCH/CSID + FVG🔵 Introduction
The MMXM Smart Money Reversal leverages key metrics such as SMT Divergence, Liquidity Sweep, HTF PD Array, Market Structure Shift (MSS) or (ChoCh), CISD, and Fair Value Gap (FVG) to identify critical turning points in the market. Designed for traders aiming to analyze the behavior of major market participants, this setup pinpoints strategic areas for making informed trading decisions.
The document introduces the MMXM model, a trading strategy that identifies market maker activity to predict price movements. The model operates across five distinct stages: original consolidation, price run, smart money reversal, accumulation/distribution, and completion. This systematic approach allows traders to differentiate between buyside and sellside curves, offering a structured framework for interpreting price action.
Market makers play a pivotal role in facilitating these movements by bridging liquidity gaps. They continuously quote bid (buy) and ask (sell) prices for assets, ensuring smooth trading conditions.
By maintaining liquidity, market makers prevent scenarios where buyers are left without sellers and vice versa, making their activity a cornerstone of the MMXM strategy.
SMT Divergence serves as the first signal of a potential trend reversal, arising from discrepancies between the movements of related assets or indices. This divergence is detected when two or more highly correlated assets or indices move in opposite directions, signaling a likely shift in market trends.
Liquidity Sweep occurs when the market targets liquidity in specific zones through false price movements. This process allows major market participants to execute their orders efficiently by collecting the necessary liquidity to enter or exit positions.
The HTF PD Array refers to premium and discount zones on higher timeframes. These zones highlight price levels where the market is in a premium (ideal for selling) or discount (ideal for buying). These areas are identified based on higher timeframe market behavior and guide traders toward lucrative opportunities.
Market Structure Shift (MSS), also referred to as ChoCh, indicates a change in market structure, often marked by breaking key support or resistance levels. This shift confirms the directional movement of the market, signaling the start of a new trend.
CISD (Change in State of Delivery) reflects a transition in price delivery mechanisms. Typically occurring after MSS, CISD confirms the continuation of price movement in the new direction.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) represents zones where price imbalance exists between buyers and sellers. These gaps often act as price targets for filling, offering traders opportunities for entry or exit.
By combining all these metrics, the Smart Money Reversal provides a comprehensive tool for analyzing market behavior and identifying key trading opportunities. It enables traders to anticipate the actions of major players and align their strategies accordingly.
MMBM :
MMSM :
🔵 How to Use
The Smart Money Reversal operates in two primary states: MMBM (Market Maker Buy Model) and MMSM (Market Maker Sell Model). Each state highlights critical structural changes in market trends, focusing on liquidity behavior and price reactions at key levels to offer precise and effective trading opportunities.
The MMXM model expands on this by identifying five distinct stages of market behavior: original consolidation, price run, smart money reversal, accumulation/distribution, and completion. These stages provide traders with a detailed roadmap for interpreting price action and anticipating market maker activity.
🟣 Market Maker Buy Model
In the MMBM state, the market transitions from a bearish trend to a bullish trend. Initially, SMT Divergence between related assets or indices reveals weaknesses in the bearish trend. Subsequently, a Liquidity Sweep collects liquidity from lower levels through false breakouts.
After this, the price reacts to discount zones identified in the HTF PD Array, where major market participants often execute buy orders. The market confirms the bullish trend with a Market Structure Shift (MSS) and a change in price delivery state (CISD). During this phase, an FVG emerges as a key trading opportunity. Traders can open long positions upon a pullback to this FVG zone, capitalizing on the bullish continuation.
🟣 Market Maker Sell Model
In the MMSM state, the market shifts from a bullish trend to a bearish trend. Here, SMT Divergence highlights weaknesses in the bullish trend. A Liquidity Sweep then gathers liquidity from higher levels.
The price reacts to premium zones identified in the HTF PD Array, where major sellers enter the market and reverse the price direction. A Market Structure Shift (MSS) and a change in delivery state (CISD) confirm the bearish trend. The FVG then acts as a target for the price. Traders can initiate short positions upon a pullback to this FVG zone, profiting from the bearish continuation.
Market makers actively bridge liquidity gaps throughout these stages, quoting continuous bid and ask prices for assets. This ensures that trades are executed seamlessly, even during periods of low market participation, and supports the structured progression of the MMXM model.
The price’s reaction to FVG zones in both states provides traders with opportunities to reduce risk and enhance precision. These pullbacks to FVG zones not only represent optimal entry points but also create avenues for maximizing returns with minimal risk.

CandelaCharts - Swing Failure Pattern (SFP)# SWING FAILURE PATTERN
📝 Overview
The Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) indicator is designed to identify and highlight Swing Failure Patterns on a user’s chart. This pattern typically emerges when significant market participants generate liquidity by driving price action to key levels. An SFP occurs when the price temporarily breaks above a resistance level or below a support level, only to quickly reverse and return within the previous range. These movements are often associated with stop-loss hunting or liquidity grabs, providing traders with potential opportunities to anticipate reversals or key market turning points.
A Bullish SFP occurs when the price dips below a key support level, triggering stop-loss orders, but then swiftly reverses upward, signaling a potential upward trend or reversal.
A Bearish SFP happens when the price spikes above a key resistance level, triggering stop-losses of short positions, but then quickly reverses downward, indicating a potential bearish trend or reversal.
The indicator is a powerful tool for traders, helping to identify liquidity grabs and potential reversal points in real-time. Marking bullish and bearish Swing Failure Patterns on the chart, it provides clear visual cues for spotting market traps set by major players, enabling more informed trading decisions and improved risk management.

📒 Usage
The best approach is to combine a few complementary indicators to gain a clearer market perspective. This doesn’t mean relying on the Golden Cross, RSI divergences, SFPs, and funding rates simultaneously, but rather focusing on one or two that align well in a given scenario.
The example above demonstrates the confluence of a Bearish Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) with an RSI divergence. This combination strengthens the signal, as the Bearish SFP indicates a potential reversal after a liquidity grab, while the RSI divergence confirms weakening momentum at the key level. Together, these indicators provide a more robust setup for identifying potential market reversals with greater confidence.

4H CRT (1AM and 5AM)This TradingView script is designed to assist traders in implementing the "4-Hour Candle Ranges Theory Strategy (CRT)" by identifying key levels and setups based on the 1am and 4am (5am) 4-hour candles. This strategy is particularly effective for trading high-volatility assets such as Gold, EUR/USD, NAS100, US30, and S&P500, with US30 showing a notably high win rate. Here's how the strategy works:
Key Features:
1. Marking 1am and 4am 4-Hour Candle Ranges
- The script highlights the high and low of the 1am 4-hour candle.
- It visually tracks whether the high or low of the 1am candle is taken out by the subsequent 4-hour candle (5am).
2. Entry Setup Rules
- Primary Setup: Wait for the high or low of the 1am candle to be taken out by the 5am candle. Once this sweep occurs, wait for a Market Structure Shift (MSS) on the lower time frame (15min) to confirm your entry.
- Secondary Setup: If the 5am candle fails to take out the high or low of the 1am candle, the setup focuses on the levels formed by the 5am candle.
3. Trade Execution on 15-Minute Timeframe
- The script supports a lower time frame (15min) view to identify MSS and fine-tune entries.
4. Rinse and Repeat
- This process can be applied daily for consistent opportunities across the specified assets.
Advantages:
- Provides clear visual markers for key levels based on the 4-hour candles.
- Automates level plotting, saving traders time and reducing manual errors.
- Integrates well with the 15-minute timeframe for precise entry triggers.
- Optimized for popular trading instruments, especially US30 for a higher probability of success.
This script simplifies the application of CRT by automating the process of identifying and marking critical levels, enabling traders to focus on executing high-probability setups effectively.

CandelaCharts - Volume Imbalance (VI) 📝 Overview
Volume Imbalance occurs when there’s a noticeable gap between the bodies of two consecutive candlesticks, with no overlap between them. While the wicks of the candles might intersect, the candle bodies remain entirely separate. This phenomenon often signifies that the algorithm driving market activity did not evenly distribute prices between these two levels, leaving behind a small Volume Imbalance (VI).
A Bullish Volume Imbalance forms when the body of a green candlestick gaps above the previous candle’s body, with no overlap, indicating strong upward momentum and insufficient sell-side liquidity.
A Bearish Volume Imbalance forms when the body of a red candlestick gaps below the previous candle’s body, with no overlap, signaling intense downward pressure and a lack of buy-side liquidity.
This indicator can automatically identify volume imbalances by scanning candlestick patterns and detecting gaps between consecutive candle bodies. These volume imbalances act as price magnets, often attracting the market back to fill the gap before resuming its original direction. Recognizing and leveraging these gaps can be a powerful tool in technical analysis for predicting price movements.

Breakaway Fair Value Gaps [LuxAlgo]The Breakaway Fair Value Gap (FVG) is a typical FVG located at a point where the price is breaking new Highs or Lows.
🔶 USAGE
In the screenshot above, the price range is visualized by Donchian Channels.
In theory, the Breakaway FVGs should generally be a good indication of market participation, showing favor in the FVG's breaking direction. This is a combination of buyers or sellers pushing markets quickly while already at the highest high or lowest low in recent history.
While this described reasoning seems conventional, looking into it inversely seems to reveal a more effective use of these formations.
When the price is pushed to the extremities of the current range, the price is already potentially off balance and over-extended. Then an FVG is created, extending the price further out of balance.
With this in consideration, After identifying a Breakaway FVG, we could logically look for a reversion to re-balance the gap.
However, it would be illogical to believe that the FVG will immediately mitigate after formation. Because of this, the dashboard display for this indicator shows the analysis for the mitigation likelihood and timeliness.
In the example above, the information in the dashboard would read as follows (Bearish example):
Out of 949 Bearish Breakaway FVGs, 80.19% are shown to be mitigated within 60 bars, with the average mitigation time being 13 bars.
The other 19.81% are not mitigated within 60 bars. This could mean the FVG was mitigated after 60 bars, or it was never mitigated.
The unmitigated FVGs within the analysis window will extend their mitigation level to the current bar. We can see the number of bars since the formation is represented to the right of the live mitigation level.
Utilizing the current distance readout helps to better judge the likelihood of a level being mitigated.
Additionally, when considering these mitigation levels as targets, an additional indicator or analysis can be used to identify specific entries, which would further aid in a system's reliability.

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.
Liquidity Channels [TFO]This indicator was built to visually demonstrate the significance of major, untouched pivots. With traders commonly placing orders at or near significant pivots, these areas are commonly referred to as Resting Liquidity. If we attribute some factor of growth over time, we can quickly visualize that certain pivots originated much further away than others, if their channels appear larger.
A pivot in this case is validated by the Liquidity Strength parameter. If set to 50 for example, then a pivot high is validated if its high is greater than the high of the 50 bars to the left and right of itself. This also implies a delay in finding pivots, as the drawings won't actually appear until validation, which would occur 50 bars after the original high has formed in this case. This is typical of indicators using swing highs and lows, as one must wait some period of time to validate the pivots in question.
The Channel Growth parameter dictates how much the Liquidity Channels will expand over time. The following chart is an example, where the left-hand side is using a Channel Growth of 1, and the right-hand side is using a Channel Growth of 10.
When price reaches these levels, they become invalidated and will stop extending to the right. The other condition for invalidation is the Delete After (Bars) parameter which, when enabled, declares that untouched levels will be deleted if the distance from their origin exceeds this many bars.
This indicator also offers an option to Hide Expanding Channels for those who just want the actual levels on their chart, without the extra visuals, which would look something like the below chart.
