Bias DailyThis indicator shows in a different way how to evaluate the BIAS Daily.
Evaluate yesterday's closed candle and that of the day before yesterday
The conditions are:
LONG BIAS =
Candle closed above High Candle [2 ]
- In this condition a long continuation can be considered
SHORT BIAS =
The candle closed below the low candle [2 ]
- In this condition a short continuation can be considered
IN THE RANGE =
The candle did not close below or above the Low and High candle
- In this condition it is better not to risk it
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose to show high or low BIAS levels
- Shows the Table in which the BIAS D is marked
The indicator should be used as TTrades shows in its videos, it can also be implemented in ICT strategies.
The indicator takes into consideration the last 2 candles already closed, so on the candle that is forming you can expect reactions in the Pd Array of the Candle Range , below I show examples of how to use it in Multitimeframe
BIAS LONG =
BIAS SHORT =

Order Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Volumized Order Blocks indicator! This new indicator can render order blocks with their volumetric information. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Volumized Order Blocks indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Order Blocks
Enable / Disable Volumetric Information
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart.
The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenario, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.
🚩UNIQUENESS
The ability to render the total volume of Order Blocks as well as bullish / bearish volume ratio is what sets this Order Block indicator apart from others. Also the ability to combine overlapping Order Block zones will result in cleaner charts for traders.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Volumetric Info -> The volumetric information of the Order Blocks will be rendered if activated.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
Breaker Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Volumized Breaker Blocks indicator! This new indicator can render breaker blocks with their volumetric information. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Volumized Breaker Block indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Breaker Blocks
Enable / Disable Volumetric Information
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Breaker blocks form when an order block fails, or "breaks". It is often associated with market going in the opposite direction of the broken order block, and they can be spotted by following order blocks and finding the point they get broken, ie. price goes below a bullish order block.
The volume of a breaker block is simply the total volume of the bar that the original order block is broken.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator can not only detect breaker blocks, but it can also detect them with their volumetric information. Volumetric information can be crucial when considering an breaker block's strength, which can be a crucial form of confluence in certain trading strategies.

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
We believe that the analytical elements that are within this indicator work best when they co-exist with each other on the chart. Trading often requires taking multiple elements into consideration for better accuracy on market analysis. Thus, we combined some of the useful strategies in one indicator for ease of use.
1. Volumized Fair Value Gaps
Fair value gaps often occur when there is an imbalance in the market, and can be spotted with a specific formation on the chart.
The volume when the FVG occurs plays an important role when determining the strength of it, so we've placed two bars on the FVG zone, indicating the high & low volumes of the FVG. The high volume is the total volume of the last two bars on a bullish FVG, while the low volume is - of the FVG. For a bearish FVG, the total volume of the last two bars is the low volume. The indicator can also detect FVGs that exist in other timeframes than the current chart.
2. Volumized Order Blocks
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart.
The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenerio, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.
3. Volumized Breaker Blocks
Breaker blocks form when an order block fails, or "breaks". It is often associated with market going in the opposite direction of the broken order block, and they can be spotted by following order blocks and finding the point they get broken, ie. price goes below a bullish order block.
The volume of a breaker block is simply the total volume of the bar that the original order block is broken. Often the higher the breaking bar's volume, the stronger the breaker block is.
4. Market Structures
Sometimes specific market structures form and break as the market fills buy & sell orders. Formed Change of Character (CHoCH) and Break of Structure (BOS) often mean that market will change direction, and they can be spotted by inspecting low & high pivot points of the chart.
5. Equal Highs & Lows
Equal Highs & Lows occur when there is a significant amount of difference between a candle's close price and it's high / low value, and it happens again in a specific range. EQH and EQL usually mean there is a resistance that blocks the price from going further up / down.
6. Buyside & Sellside Liquidity
Buyside & Sellside Liquidity zones are where most traders place their take-profits and stop-losses in their long / short positions. They are spotted by using high & low pivot points on the chart.
7. Premium & Discount Zones
The premium zone is a zone that is over the fair value of the asset's price, and the discount zone is the opposite. They are formed by the latest high & low pivot points.
8. MTF Highs / Lows
MTF Highs / Lows are actually pretty self-explanatory, you can enable / disable Daily, Weekly, Monthly & Pre-Market Highs and Lows.
🚩UNIQUENESS
Our new indicator offers a comprehensive toolkit for traders, combining multiple analytical elements with customizable settings to aid in decision-making across different market conditions and timeframes. The volumetric information of both FVGs and Order & Breaker Blocks will be present in your chart to serve you greater detail about them. The indicator also efficiently identifies market structures, liquidity zones and premium & discount zones to give you an insight about the current state of the market. And finally with the use of multiple timeframes , you can easily take a look at the bigger picture. We recommend reading the "How Does It Work" section of the descripton to get a better understanding about how this indicator is unique to others.
⚙️SETTINGS

MTF Market Structure - SMC IndicatorsThe Multi Timeframe Market Structure helps understand and identify bullish or bearish Market Structure by highlighting “KEY” Highs and Lows. It also identifies changes in market direction by identifying a “Shift in Market Structure” (See Point 2 below) or “Break in Market Structure” (See Point 3 Below).
What are Key Highs and Lows?
Not every high or low is a “Key” high or low. “Key” highs and lows are specific highs and lows that form the structure of the market and have significance in understanding the current trend in the market (see point 1 below).
The indicator identifies these “Key” highs and lows on multiple time frames, allowing the trader to keep a perspective of the Market Structure with multiple timeframes simultaneously (see point 5 below).
The key highs and lows identified by the indicator are as follows:
Key Lows : Identify significant Swing Lows, Short-term lows “STL”, Intermediate-Term Lows “ITL”, and Long-Term Lows “LTL”.
Key Highs : Identify significant Swing Highs, Short-term highs “STH”, Intermediate-Term Highs “ITH”, and Long-Term Highs “LTH”.
Significant Swing High : This is a price swing with one lower candle to the right and one lower candle to the left of it.
Significant Swing Low : This is a price swing with one higher candle to the right and one higher candle to the left of it.
Short-Term High “STH” is a price swing with one lower Significant Swing High to the right and one lower Significant Swing High to the left of it.
Short-Term Low “STL” is a price swing with one higher Significant Swing Low to the right and one higher Significant Swing Low to the left of it.
Intermediate-Term High “ITH” is a price swing with one lower STH to the right and one lower STH to the left of it.
Intermediate-Term Low “ITL” is a price swing with one higher STL to the right and one higher STL to the left of it.
Long-Term High “LTH” is a price swing with one lower ITH to the right and one lower ITH to the left of it.
Long-Term Low “ITL” is a price swing with one higher ITL to the right and one higher ITL to the left of it.
By identifying key highs and lows using the Market Structure Indicator, it can be used in multiple ways by using those reference points as follows:
1. Identifying Market Trends by Connecting Key Highs and Lows.
Bullish trend identification is when the indicator is making higher ITLs and ITHs.
Bearish Trend identification when the indicator is making lower ITLs and ITHs.
PS: it’s essential to understand the underlying market trend on multiple timeframes to use the next features correctly. Always use the Shifts and Breaks in Market Structures in line with the 1H or higher timeframes Market Trend for higher probability trade opportunities. This is because, generally, higher timeframes have more importance than lower timeframes.
2. Shift In Market Structure - SMS for Entries
A Shift in Market Structure “SMS” identifies potential reversal in short-term market trend relative to the timeframe where the SMS is identified.
This occurs after a run of any Significant Swing High or Low and then reversing, creating a Fair Value Gap “FVG”.
There can be Bullish and Bearish Market Structure Shifts.
When a Bullish Shift in Market Structure occurs, the indicator identifies an opportunity for the price to change from Bearish to Bullish, as seen in the image below.
When a Bearish Shift in Market Structure occurs, the indicator identifies an opportunity for the price to change from Bullish to Bearish.
3. Break In Market Structure - BMS for Entries
A Break in Market Structure “BMS” has a similar function to the Shift in Market Structure “SMS”; however, when it occurs, it identifies a potential longer-term trend reversal (compared to the SMS) relative to the timeframe where the BMS is identified.
Unlike “SMS”, the BMS occurs after a run only after a run on Key Highs or Lows.
Similar to the SMS, there can be Bullish and Bearish Breaks in Market Structure.
When a Bullish Break in Market Structure occurs, the indicator identifies an opportunity for a longer-term trend change from Bearish to Bullish, as seen in the image below.
The FVG must occur in the lower 50% of the impulse price leg (at Discount).
When a Bearish Break in Market Structure occurs, the indicator identifies an opportunity for a longer-term trend change from Bullish to Bearish.
The FVG must occur in the upper 50% of the impulse price leg (at Premium).
4. Inversion Break and Shift in Market Structure for Early Entries
Inversion “BMS” and “SMS” are similar to the normal SMS and BMS, but they occur:
Bullish: When the FVG of the Bearish BMS/SMS forms in the lower 50% of the impulse price leg (at Discount).
We use the FVG that forms from the Bearish SMS/BMS as an inversion FVG for potential entry after market trend change from Bearish to Bullish.
Bearish: When the FVG of the Bullish BMS/SMS forms in the upper 50% of the impulse price leg (at Premium).
We use the FVG that forms from the Bullish SMS/BMS as an inversion FVG for potential entry after market trend change from Bullish to Bearish.
5. Multi Time Frame analysis
The indicator allows multiple timeframe perspectives to be considered when using it.
The key Highs and Lows have significance not only on the current timeframe they are identified but also on lower or higher timeframes simultaneously.
This is because a ITL/ITH on the 1H means
It’s a LTL/LTH on one or more timeframes lower (15Min, 5M, and 1Min).
And at the same time, it’s a STL/STH on one timeframe higher (4H)
Also, it’s a Significant Low/High (marked with a dot) on two timeframes higher (Daily).
The same logic applies to all other Key Highs and Lows.
Another example is a Significant Low/High (swing marked with a dot below or above it) on the current timeframe (1D) means it’s a STL/STH on one timeframe lower (4H) and an ITL/ITH on two timeframes lower (1H) and a LTH/LTH on three timeframes lower or more (15M, 5M, 1Min, 30 Seconds, etc…).
This Multi-time frame analysis is a great way to help traders understand Market Structure and Market trend on multiple timeframes simultaneously, and it also assists in Top-down analysis.
PS: Note that this multi-timeframe analysis approach and logic can be applied to any timeframe and for any type of trading (swing trading, day trading, scalping, or short-term trading) because the price is fractal.
For example, if a trader is a swing trader, then it’s best to identify trader opportunities on the 1H or higher; however, lower timeframes Market Structure can still be used to help the traders refine their entries and target key highs and lows in the opposite direction.
If a trader is a day trader or a scalper, the trader could use Market Structure on 15M or lower to identify trader opportunities and target key highs and lows in the opposite direction.
6. Setting Targets
The indicator can also be used to identify potential targets after the SMS or BMS occurs. Targets can be chosen above Key Highs or Lows depending on the trade objective and timeframe where the trade idea is identified.
Bonus Features
Highlight Market Structure Trend
This feature is an excellent backtesting visual tool to look at changes in market trends highlighted in colours. These changes are based on the Shift or Break in of Market Structure depending on the selection option.
When "Shift/Break" in Market Structure" is selected, a Bullish trend is highlighted in blue when a Bullish Shift/Break in Market Structure Occurs and in Red when a Bearish Shift/Break in Market Structure Occurs.
Notifications
Sends notifications when there is a Shift or Break in Market Structure on the current timeframe of choice.
IMGBasic - HTF Structure / Order Blocks / Breakers - V1.0IMG Indicators Overview
The IMG Indicators are crafted as comprehensive educational tools for price action traders. They incorporate a variety of concepts including:
1. Multiple Timeframe Analysis
2. Order Blocks (OB)
3. Breakers (BRKR)
4. Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
5. Overlaps of OB and FVG
6. Overlaps of BRKR and FVG
7. Analysis of Internal and External Liquidity
8. Strategies for Identifying Potential Entries, Stop-loss, and Target Levels
9. Risk Management and Position Sizing
These Price Action concepts can be applied to any market (Stocks / Options / Forex / Futures / Crypto ) and any timeframe.
Introduction to the IMG Basic Indicator
The IMG Basic Indicator serves as the foundational level within the IMG suite of indicators. Its core function is to acquaint traders with elementary price action concepts such as:
1. Higher Timeframe Market Structures through Multiple Timeframe Analysis
2. Higher Timeframe Order Blocks
3. Higher Timeframe Breakers
4. Breaks in Higher Timeframe Market Structure
Higher Timeframe Market Structure:
Market Structure can be defined using several techniques. The IMG indicators employ the Close through High/Low technique, which necessitates a candle close through a structural level to validate a structural break and designate a new range.
Example: H12 Market Structure visualisation on a H12 Chart with annotations:
By selecting a particular Market Structure timeframe in the settings, the indicator immediately illustrates both current and historical market structures for the chosen timeframe across all subordinate timeframes, subject to the limitations of your Tradingview subscription.
Example: H12 Market Structure visualisation on a H1 Chart with annotations:
Higher Timeframe Order Blocks (OB)
An Order Block represents the last candle of the opposite direction preceding a Market Structure Break. For instance, a bullish Order Block is identified as the final bearish candle leading to a bullish market structure break, and vice versa for bearish Order Blocks.
Example: H12 OB visualisation on a H12 Chart with annotations:
When activated, the indicator will highlight the Higher Timeframe Order Blocks responsible for a Market Structure Break on all subordinate timeframes relative to the chosen Market Structure Timeframe.
Note: if multiple OBs exist, the indicator will display the OB closest to the new range extreme
Example: H12 OB visualisation on a H1 Chart with annotations:
Higher Timeframe Breaker Blocks (BRKR)
A Breaker Block is identified as the most recent Order Block that has been breached by price, followed by an opposite Market Structure Break. For example, a bullish Breaker Block is the last bearish Order Block that price has passed through, followed by a bullish structural break, and the inverse is true for bearish Breakers.
Example: H12 Breaker visualisation on a H12 Chart with annotations:
Once enabled, the system will display Higher Timeframe Breaker Blocks after an opposite Market Structure Break is confirmed on all subordinate timeframes.
Example: H12 Breaker visualisation on a H1 Chart with annotations:
ALERTS: Higher Timeframe Market Structure Breaks (HTF MSBs)
The system provides notifications of confirmed Market Structure Breaks based on the selected Higher Timeframe Market Structure Timeframe. For instance, selecting a weekly structure will trigger an alert when price closes through a weekly structural level, and the same logic applies to other timeframes like D, H12, H4, H1 etc.
To enable alerts, right-click on the indicator and select “Add Alert on IMG ...”. You may customise the alert name as desired and then click 'Create' to finalise the alert setup.
General Note:
There is no system, indicator, algorithm, or strategy that can provide absolute certainty in predicting market movements. Use trading indicators as a tool to assist with trading decisions and manage your risk wisely.

Opening Range Gaps [TFO]This indicator displays Opening Range Gaps with an adjustable time window. Its intention is to capture the discrepancy between the close price of previous and new Real Trading Hours (RTH) sessions, i.e. yesterday's close compared to today's open. A gap will be drawn from this area with a solid line denoting its midpoint, and dashed lines denoting the upper and lower quartiles of its range. Its color is determined by whether the new session open price is above or below the previous session close.
The Gap Session parameter allows users to define the specific time window for which to capture the "gap" in price. Using U.S. index futures as an example, we can use 16:00 - 09:30 (EST) to capture the discrepancy between the previous day's close price and the current day's open price. However, this parameter is left as adjustable for users that may want to observe different markets or simply experiment with different time windows.
Show Session Delineations will draw vertical timestamps denoting the start and end times of the provided Gap Session. Track Start Price serves as a visual aid to track the initial price of the Gap Session until its end price is validated, for easy visual verification of a gap's upper and lower bounds. With both options turned off, the indicator will only display the gap boxes and lines, as shown here:
Extend Boxes will draw all gaps with an indefinite extension to the right. This can get messy with a large number of boxes, which is why we have a Keep Last parameter to limit how many sessions' drawings should be stored. Any drawings that were made beyond this number of sessions in the past will automatically be deleted.
The Timeframe Limit will dictate that the indicator as a whole will only draw objects on timeframes less than or equal to this timeframe, determined by the user. In some cases this may help users avoid resolution errors which may arise from using timeframes that are too large for a given session. For example, if a user wanted to track a Gap Session of 16:15-09:30, the Timeframe Limit should be set to 15 minutes because the close price at 16:15 cannot be observed on a 30 minute chart (or greater).
Advanced VSA: Trend and Range LevelsThe indicator is designed for traders who are more interested in market structures and price action using volumes. Analyzing volumes, key market levels, market phases (trend or range/sideways), and multiple timeframes can help the trader build a clearer and more comprehensive view of the market. The data analysis algorithm is developed based on VSA methods, elements of the ICT concept, and the results of my research to assist trader in gaining a better understanding of the market and uncovering information that might go unnoticed.
The key idea is to consider multiple timeframes in trading. Understanding larger market movements from higher timeframes can provide a deeper context when making trading decisions, aiming to assist in more effective entries and exits. This is achieved by identifying the trend and its support levels on multiple timeframes, identifying ranges and their current boundaries, as well as buyer and seller interest zones.
Key Features
Trend Identification: The indicator determines the trend and its current support level. All significant price &movements occur in the form of impulses (either by sellers or buyers). An impulse consists of one or several consecutive candlesticks, at least one of which has a closing price beyond the boundaries of the previous impulse. The indicator displays the base of the impulse and/or the entire impulse. The base of the impulse represents the trend's support level.
Range Identification: The indicator can identify ranges and their current boundaries. Institutional traders take positions within price ranges, and many market reversals occur after flats. A range is a sequential price movement up and down within a specific price range. A range is formed by a minimum of 4 points, 2 above and 2 below, and is defined by its boundaries. The indicator detects ranges based on two (two consecutive impulses in one direction) or three impulses (the first and third in one direction, and the second in the opposite direction). The indicator displays the current boundary points of the range and the level of protection after exiting the range and initiating a trend.
Buyer and seller zones within impulses: After the impulse ends, a correction occurs. It is advisable to look for entry points during this correction in the direction of the impulse from the zone of interest of the owner of the impulse: the buyer's zone for a long impulse and the seller's zone for a short impulse. A zone consists of a series of consecutive candlesticks grouped on the chart in a specific manner.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Identification: The indicator also identifies the trend on two higher timeframes and displays the two latest bases of impulses from those higher timeframes on the chart.
Additional Features
Identification of Test Levels and Effort. A test is the price's return to a zone or to a candle of effort, followed by a continuation in the direction of the initial price movement. It is characterized by the test level. An effort or effort candle is a single candle that is individually larger in volume than the previous 2.
Example Use Cases
You can display the base levels of impulses from a 4-hour time frame and a daily time frame on a 15-minute chart to keep track of important levels from higher timeframes.
By exploring different timeframes, you can identify consolidations (range/sideways movements) and trade within them in the direction of the trend from higher timeframes.
If the market is in a trending phase (the presence of a trend is determined by two consecutive impulses in the same direction), look for trades in the direction of the impulse, following these priorities:
When the impulse base level is protected by the host of the impulse.
During corrections, look for buy trades in the buyer's zone for an uptrend and sell trades in the seller's zone for a downtrend.
During corrections, look for buy trades from a buyer's effort candle for an uptrend and sell trades from a seller's effort candle for a downtrend.
If the market is in a consolidation phase (range), look for trades:
When the current or maximum/minimum historical boundaries of the consolidation (range) are protected, look for trades towards the opposite current boundary.
If the price exits the consolidation/range (closes outside all consolidation boundaries, including both current and historical boundaries), then during corrections, look for trades in the direction of the exit.
Settings
Trend: Display base levels of impulses and/or the entire impulse. Sideways Ranges (Sideways Markets): Display the required number of sideways ranges on the chart, along with protection levels for exiting the sideways range. There are two modes for finding sideways ranges. The first mode requires touching points. The second mode (advanced) does not require precise touching of points if there are increased volumes at the extreme points of the sideways range. Touching these volumes is sufficient for the price.
Zones: Display zones on the chart. Choose the types of displayed zones and their colors. They are divided into three types. The first type is the most promising for finding trades. Type 3 represents more aggressive trades.
Test Levels: Display test levels for zones and efforts on the chart. There are three types of test levels. The first type is the most promising for finding trades. Type 3 is not recommended for finding trades as it represents the most aggressive trades.
Higher Time Frames: Choose 2 timeframes and the types of displayed impulse base lines.
Omega Smart AnalystThe Omega Smart analyst is a tool designed to help traders visualize in a clearer way key price levels on the chart based on the price and the volume.
The indicator has some features, including:
- Option to customize the colors for all of the tools available to have common aesthetics
- Option to choose the length and the sensitivity for all of the tools
Volume clusters: display automatic volume clusters that can be used as support or resistance following the order block theory. These levels can be highlighted or extended in the settings.
Support and resistance: show automatic support and resistance levels based on volume.
Candle coloring: color candles based on volume and volatility, great to use as a signal confirmation.
Full levels: show previous high, low, and close levels on the chart, great to use to detect liquidity and breakouts
Bias target: a tool to enhance one of the low or high of the previous full levels according to the daily liquidity bias ICT method. As shown in the picture above you can also choose to display only these levels.
Market structure: show the current trend according to the market structure.
Structure origin: shows the main level of support and resistance with an area that gives also an indication of the current price volatility.

AMD-PO3-Goldbach levels [promuckaj]This script is developed on time & price, algorithmic market theory that is well explained in the book "Demystifying ICT" by Hopiplaka.
Indicators main features:
*PO3 - Goldbach(IPDA) levels which is based on the size of a price range (dealing range) as a factor of power of three (3^n).
There is PO3 numbers starting from 3 to 177147 as predefined, but also there is field for custom one so that users can experiment.
By selecting the PO3 number script calculate range low and range high using PO3 formula based on the current price and represent it on the chart into multiple levels of Goldbach numbers. At each this levels it is expected to see price that form block, fair value gap etc..., as defined in concept by ICT.
Levels:
Ext => External range
Low => Range low
High => Range high
FVG => Fair value gap
RB => Rejection block
OB => Order block
LV => Liquidity void
BR => Breaker
MB => Mitigation block
*AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution) cycles, that can be modified by changing timings and colors.
Using PO3-Goldbach levels to identify where at the current time profile price is, there can be done trades in line with AMD cycles.
Default timings are set for Forex pairs.
*FVG, HIPPO, Displacement is well known parts of a market structure, so those three are also implemented here with some possible changes for them (colors, extension, labels...).
FVG => Fair value gap, imbalances in the market, or when buying and selling are not equal, in most cases can become a magnet for the price.
HIPPO => Hidden interbank price point objective, invention by Hopiplaka to demonstrate meaning of this "hidden" order block. It basically take the wicks of 2 consecutive bars that create a fair value gap.
DISPLACEMENT => It is practically similar to FVG but with option to measure length and strength, where in combination it will calculate and mark candle by looking back to the bars to determine the candle range standard deviation.
FEATURES:
-Multiple PO3 numbers, including special option to set your custom one
-Color and style customization
-Main levels mode, only Low, High and Equilibrium levels
-PO3 table with all PO3 calcs from multiple numbers, and mark the same levels from multiple
-Option to shift DR up or down
-Option to show you always upper/lower main DR levels (Low/High/Eq.)
NOTE:
-First of all special thanks to fxdmn that gives me idea from his indicator, how to present this through my own script.
-GB levels requires the correct symbols price calculation to work properly, everything is done by auto calc, tested well on EURUSD,SP500,DXY,Gold and BTC.
Market Structure [TFO]The purpose of this indicator is to provide a simple approach to Market Structure. When price is closing over swing highs, we may categorize that as bullish structure; and when price is closing below swing lows, we may categorize that as bearish structure.
We can easily find swing highs and lows via the following built-in Pine Script functions:
ta.pivothigh()
ta.pivotlow()
We can pass in our Pivot Strength parameter to determine the size/significance of these pivots. The lowest value of 1 will validate a swing high when a given high is larger than that of 1 bar to the left and right of it. A pivot strength of 3, for example, would validate a swing high only when a high is larger than that of the 3 bars to the left and right of it, making it much more selective.
In any case, we can simply track the most recent swing highs and lows and check for when price through them. Enabling the Show Pivots option will mark all the swing highs and lows that are being considered for future structure breaks.
If the trend is bearish and we begin closing over swing highs, that would mark a Market Structure Shift (MSS). If the trend is already bullish and we are closing over swing highs, that would mark a Break of Structure (BOS), and vice versa for bearish conditions. MSS essentially signifies reversals in Market Structure while BOS signifies continuations.
Users may also create alerts for Any/Bull/Bear BOS or MSS. Simply create a new alert, select this indicator, and select the desired BOS or MSS criteria.
SMC Order Block [Truth Indie]Smart Money Concept (SMC)
For me, SMC is a trading philosophy that stems from those with knowledge and understanding of the structure of the Smart Money group's trading system. It is developed through the observation of price behavior.
SMC is related to the Smart Money group or those entities that can influence the market, such as financial institutions, banks, or funds. Market movements are often driven by market fundamentals or economics. The Smart Money group possesses extensive research data for analyzing the market's fundamentals and has the ability to steer the market in various directions based on market and economic fundamentals at a given time.
The SMC concept is adapted from the ICT concept, and it was developed and shared by The Inner Circle Trader.
I have been studying and trying to understand SMC for some time, and I have many questions I would like to explore. The challenge lies in the fact that different sources of knowledge on this topic often have varying teachings, and my proficiency in the English language is limited. As a result, I haven't had the opportunity to study from the primary source, The Inner Circle Trader.
This indicator was created for the purpose of researching Market Structure and Order Blocks, which are integral parts of the SMC Concept.
The fundamental principle for identifying Order Blocks is as follows:
1.Locate swings that create candlestick imbalances.
2.An imbalance refers to a candlestick that is larger than the preceding one and contains a Fair Value Gap (FVG).
This indicator categorizes Order Blocks into four types, and you are encouraged to customize them to suit your preferences.
OB Type1
1.The closing price of candle has an opposite direction to the candle .
2.Candle has a wick longer than its body, by at least 1 times or more (adjustable).
3.Candle has a wick longer than candle , by at least 2 times or more (adjustable).
4.There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between the wicks of candle and .
OB Type1_HTF
-This condition is the same as OB Type1, but it involves analyzing 6 candles instead. This means looking at a larger time frame, twice as big as the original one.
OB Type2
1.The closing price of candle has the opposite direction to candle .
2.Candle has a body larger than its wick by at least 1 times or more (adjustable).
3.Candle has a body larger than candle by at least 2 times or more (adjustable).
4.There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between the wicks of candle and .
OB Type2_HTF means observing a larger time frame, specifically twice as big as the previous one.
OB Type3
1.The closing price of candle has the same direction as candle .
2.Candle has a wick longer than its body, by at least 1 times or more (adjustable).
3.Candle has a wick longer than candle , by at least 2 times or more (adjustable).
4.There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between the wicks of candle and .
OB Type3_HTF means observing a larger time frame, specifically twice as big as the previous one.
OB Type4
1.The closing price of candle has the same direction as candle .
2.Candle has a body larger than its wick by at least 1 times or more (adjustable).
3.Candle has a body larger than candle by at least 2 times or more (adjustable).
4.There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between the wicks of candle and .
OB Type4_HTF is an indicator that involves looking at a larger time frame, specifically twice as big as the original one.
Order Block Setting
1.Click to activate the OB search in different Types.
2.Adjust the body of the candle .
3.Adjust the strength of the candle or the Imbalance candle.
4.You can change the name of OB.
5.Adjust the font size and color.
6.Adjust the color of the OB BOX and History BOX.
7.Adjust the font of OB HTF.
1.It refers to the value of W for a specific candle.
2.It refers to the value of Im for a specific candle.
3.It refers to the values of W and Im in the HTF.
4.For OB Type1 and Type3, a higher W value will search for candles with a larger wick and a smaller body. When the W value is lower, it will search for candles with a smaller wick and a larger body, moving from low to high.
5.For OB Type2 and Type4, a lower W value will search for candles with a smaller wick and a larger body. When the W value is higher, it will search for candles with a larger wick and a smaller body, moving from high to low.
Market Structure
Comprising the process of breaking the price structure, resulting in BOS (Breakout of Structure) or CHoCH (Change of Character High), and creating new High or Low based on the price structure.
1.When the market forms a price structure with High and Low, when the price moves to disrupt the structure in either direction, it will lead to BOS or CHoCH, resulting in a new High or Low. You can adjust the method of breaking the structure using the close, high, or low.
2.When you break the price structure, a High or Low will be formed on one side, and it will lead to an Inducement Swing. When the price moves and collides, it will create a price range of High and Low. You can adjust the method of breaking the structure using the close, high, or low.
3.There is an option for testing Fibonacci (Fibo). Its function is similar to the Inducement Swing. You can adjust the Fibonacci settings.
Premium & Discount Zone
1.The Premium & Discount Zone will appear based on the current price structure. It helps you see the price zones you are interested in.
2.You can adjust the %Premium & Discount as needed.
3.The OB (Order Block) will be displayed when a price structure of High and Low forms within the Premium & Discount Zone. The OB in this indicator is not a recommendation to buy or sell. You need to research and test various conditions before making trading decisions.
Everyone's trading strategies are different, and it comes down to backtesting and selecting the strategy that suits your individual needs. Hopefully, this indicator will assist the TradingView community of traders in their trading endeavors.
Nadaraya-Watson Envelope: Modified by YosietRange Filter indicator based on the LuxAlgo Nadaraya-Watson Envelope () indicator adding the SMA 30 high and SMA 7 low to predict the changes of the trends lines price.
WARNING: This indicator, as the same as the original, repaints the chart and could affect the exact values of the prices.
SMA Low 7 was identified using tensorflowJS years ago as accurate and abstract rsi indicator
SMA High 30 was identified using tensorflowJS years ago as accurate and strong trend line
This two SMAs were added to the original indicator Nadaraya-Watson to predict the exact points where the price will change direction or will re-test the trend to continue on.
The signals will act as the Williams Fractals, replacing the original signals of the indicator.
For those ICT/SMC traders, the bands and SMAs can toggle off in the settings of this indicator.
SETTINGS
Can set the source of the UPPER band indivuadilly
Can set the source of the LOWER band indivuadilly
Can toggle the visibility of the bands, this will not affect the calculations
Can toggle the visibility of SMAs
ALERTS AND SIGNALS
When the SMA LOW 7 cross under or over the bands, will trigger a signal orange
When the SMA 30 High cross over the upper band, will trigger a short signal purpple
HOW TO USE IT
If the both signals appears (sma 7 low and sma 30 high) crossing the upper band at the same point, this means that the price will drop strongly.
If the sma 7 low cross signal (orange triangle) appears under the price and lower band, means that the price will go up.
The separation of the signals from the chart will suggest the force of the movement. While more distance be, strongest reaction of the price.

Session CandlesThis indicator is designed to visually represent different trading sessions on a price chart, highlighting candlestick colors to distinguish between bullish (upward movement) and bearish (downward movement) trends during various market sessions. Here's an overview of how the indicator works:
1. Session Definition: The indicator defines four distinct trading sessions:
- London Session: Typically covering the European trading hours.
- New York AM Session: Representing the morning hours of the New York trading session.
- New York PM Session: Representing the afternoon hours of the New York trading session.
- Asia Session: Encompassing the trading hours of the Asian markets.
2. Configuration Options: Users can customize the behavior of the indicator through input options. For each session, users can enable or disable the display of session-specific candles.
3. Candle Coloring: The indicator determines the color of candles based on the following criteria:
- For each session, it checks whether the current candle's closing price is higher than its opening price.
- If the closing price is higher, the candle is considered bullish, and a user-defined green color is used for the candle.
- If the closing price is lower, the candle is considered bearish, and a user-defined red color is applied.
4. Display: The indicator then applies the calculated candle colors to the respective candles of each trading session on the price chart. This visual distinction helps traders quickly identify the prevailing trend during different market sessions.
To use the indicator, traders can overlay it on their price charts in TradingView. By enabling or disabling specific trading sessions, they can focus on the trends and price movements during those specific time periods.
Please note that the actual appearance of the indicator on the chart depends on the user's chosen settings for session enablement and color preferences.
Premium Dashboard [TFO]The purpose of this indicator is to serve as a scanner/dashboard for several symbols across multiple timeframes. At the time of release, the scanner looks for the following criteria on all selected timeframes:
- Whether price is in a Fair Value Gap (FVG)
- Whether price is in an Order Block (OB)
- Current Market Structure
- Nearest Liquidity Pivots
- Proximity to said Liquidity Pivots
For FVGs, the user selects a Displacement Strength to validate FVGs from the selected timeframes; larger values require greater displacement. The table will indicate whether price is presently trading in a valid bullish FVG, bearish FVG, or none.
With OBs, the user selects a similar Displacement Strength to validate OBs from the selected timeframes. Again, larger values require greater displacement to validate an OB. The table will indicate whether price is presently trading in a bullish OB, bearish OB, or none.
For Market Structure, the table will indicate whether the current structure is bullish or bearish on each respective timeframe. A pivot strength parameter is used to determine which swing highs and swing lows warrant valid Market Structure Shifts (reversals) or Breaks of Structure (continuations).
The Liquidity section of the dashboard displays the nearest Buyside and Sellside Liquidity (major highs and lows) from each respective timeframe. A similar pivot strength parameter is used to determine how "strong" the highs and lows must be in order to be considered valid.
The Premium / Discount section offers an alternative view of the nearest Liquidity Pivots, where it will instead display a percent value to describe how close price is to Buyside or Sellside Liquidity. Values approaching 100% imply price is trading close to the nearest Buyside Liquidity, while values approaching 0% imply price is trading close to Sellside Liquidity.
Users can also choose to show any of the above features on their current chart: FVGs, OBs, cumulative Market Structure, and Liquidity, all from the various selected timeframes.
FVG w/ Fibs [QuantVue]The "FVG w/ Fibs" indicator is a trading tool designed to identify and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) while overlaying two Fibonacci retracement levels.
• Bullish FVG: Occurs when the low of the current bar is higher than the high of two bars ago, and the previous close is higher than the high of two bars ago.
• Bearish FVG: Occurs when the high of the current bar is lower than the low of two bars ago, and the previous close is lower than the low of two bars ago.
The indicator filters these gaps based on user-defined criteria such as the minimum percentage size of the gap.
Once identified, these FVGs are highlighted on the chart using customizable boxes and the 50% and 61.8% (default settings) Fibonacci retracement levels are calculated and drawn based on the size of the identified FVG.
• Dynamically updates and extends the boxes as the price evolves.
• Alerts / visual changes for FVGs that get filled.
• User option for fills by Wicks or Close
• User-customizable settings for box colors, styles, and Fibonacci level appearances
Give this indicator a BOOST and COMMENT your thoughts!
We hope you enjoy.
Cheers!

Quarterly Cycles [Daye's Theory]This is entirely based on quarters theory by Daye (@traderdaye in Twitter). I'm merely the creator of the indicator and full credits for the underlying concept goes to Daye.
The idea is to split year, month, week and day into quarters at specific times which lead to PO3 (Accumulation-Manipulation-Distribution) cycles within those quarters.
They present in one of these two forms:
Q1. (A)ccumulation - Consolidation
Q2. (M)anipulation - Judas Swing
Q3. (D)istribution - Low Resistance Liquidity Run
Q4. (X) - Continuation/Reversal of previous quarter
(OR)
Q1. (X) - Continuation/Reversal of previous quarter
Q2. (A)ccumulation - Consolidation
Q3. (M)anipulation - Judas Swing
Q4. (D)istribution - Low Resistance Liquidity Run
As of now, the indicator assumes everything as AMDX, but if some clever idea comes in the future, I'll try to implement XAMD as well.
Similar to True Day Opens, there are True Monthly Opens, True Weekly Opens and True Session Opens, all of which form during the second quarters of those periods, all of which are marked by the indicator. For timeframes in H1 and below, the indicator shows weekly, daily and session quarter cycle phases. For higher timeframes, it shows yearly, monthly and weekly cycle phases.
Daye @joshuuuThis indicator is based on Dayes studies about 90minute cycles and true opens.
Similar to how ICT teaches the true day open at 0.00, Daye came up with his true year, true month, true week and true session opens.
True Year - April 1st
True Month - 2nd Monday
True Week - Monday, 6pm
True Day - 12am (Midnight)
True Session - 1:30am (London), 7:30am (New York), 1:30pm (Afternoon)
Ideally, for a bearish scenario, we would like to see price trade above the opening price to then reverse and trade lower.
Ideally, for a bullish scenario, we would like to see price trade below the opening price to then reverse and trade higher.
The moves into the opposite direction are used my smart money to accumulate their positions and trap traders into wrong positions.
This indicator also shows 90 minutes cycles.
90min Cycle Cheat Sheet:
Q1. (A)ccumulation - Consolidation
Q2. (M)anipulation - Judas Swing (Trade this)
Q3. (D)istribution - LRLR (Trade this)
Q4. (X) - Continuation/Reversal of previous q.
Or
Q1. (X) - Continuation/Reversal of previous q.
Q2. (A)ccumulation - Consolidation
Q3. (M)anipulation - Judas Swing (Trade this)
Q4. (D)istribution - LRLR (Trade this)
This shows that if q1 consolidates and q2 takes out one side and reverses we anticipate q3 to have a strong move.
however, if q2 consolidates, we anticipate q3 to take out one side, reverse and then have a strong move in q4.
First and Last Candle HighlightSimple indicator that colors the 8:30 am Morning open candle, 3pm close candle and overnight 12:00am candle for ES as a quick reference for ICT strategies or any other strategies that provide added confluence to your style of trading. the time is set to UTC -5 for chicago time but im sure it will auto adjust for any other time zone if not message me and i will leave the script open for you to edit to your liking
Inverse FVG with Rejections [TFO]This indicator is made to look for Inverse Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) and show rejections from relevant areas. Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) are created when there is an energetic move that leaves a gap between the preceding and following candle's wicks. When that area is violated, we may consider that area as an Inverse FVG, treating it along the lines of a "support turned resistance" type setup with proper context.
Once a Fair Value Gap (FVG) is found with sufficient user-defined displacement, it is saved until price fully closes through that area, at which point it becomes an IFVG, which is also saved until price once again closes through that area.
Users can select a specific time period from which to look for and save FVGs, such as during the New York trading session in the following example.
Lastly, users can enable rejections that look for swing lows in bullish FVGs/IFVGs and swing highs in bearish FVGs/IFVGs. The following picture shows an instance of rejections from both regular and inverse FVGs, meaning the pivots were formed in a mutually shared area between a FVG and IFVG.
Previous Days High & Low With AlertsAlerts: The updated script includes alerts for when the current price touches either the previous day's high (PDH) or low (PDL). This allows traders to receive notifications when these levels are breached.
Observing PDH/PDL: The script will display a single horizontal line representing both the Previous Day High (PDH) and Previous Day Low (PDL) from yesterday on the chart.
Alert Notifications: If you enabled alerts (by setting the "Enable Alerts" input to "true"), the script will trigger alerts when the current price action touches either the PDH or PDL.
SMC Structures and FVGThe SMC Structures and FVG indicator allows the user to easily identify trend continuations (Break Of Structure) or trend changes (CHange Of CHaracter) on any time frame. In addition, it display all FVG areas, whether they are bullish, bearish, or even mitigated.
Fair Value Gap :
The FVG process shows every bullish, bearish or even mitigated FVG liquidity area. When a FVG is fully mitigated it will directly be removed of the chart.
There is an history of FVG to show. By selecting specific number of FVG to show in the chart, the user can focus its analysis on lasts liquidity area.
Here's the rules for FVG color :
Green when it's a bullish FVG and has not been mitigated
Red when it's a bearish FVG and has not been mitigated
Gray when the bullish / bearish FVG has been mitigated
Removed when the FVG has been fully mitigated
Structures analysis:
The Structure process show BOS in grey lines and CHoCH in yellow lines. It shows to the user the lasts price action pattern.
The blue lines are the high value and the low value of the current structure.
