Liquidity Heatmap SwiftEdgeDescription
Liquidity Heatmap with Buy/Sell Side (Blue/Red) is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential liquidity zones in the market by combining swing high/low detection with volume analysis, visualized as a heatmap overlay on the chart. This script highlights areas where significant buying or selling pressure may exist, often acting as support or resistance levels, and provides a clear visual representation of these zones using color-coded heatmap boxes and labeled bubbles.
What It Does
The script identifies key price levels (swing highs and lows) where liquidity is likely to be concentrated, such as stop-loss clusters or pending orders. These levels are then grouped into a heatmap, with blue zones representing potential buy-side liquidity (below the current price) and red zones indicating sell-side liquidity (above the current price). Each zone is marked with a bubble showing the estimated liquidity amount, derived from volume data, to help traders gauge the strength of the level.
How It Works
The script combines three main components to create a comprehensive liquidity visualization:
Swing Highs and Lows Detection:
The script uses the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions to identify swing highs and lows over a user-defined lookback period (Swing Length). These levels often represent areas where price has reversed, indicating potential liquidity zones where stop-losses or pending orders may be placed.
Volume Analysis:
Volume data at each swing high/low is captured and averaged over a specified period (Volume Average Length). This volume is then scaled using a multiplier (Volume Multiplier for Liquidity) to estimate the liquidity amount at each level, displayed in thousands (e.g., "10K") on the chart via labeled bubbles.
Heatmap Visualization:
The identified levels are grouped into price bins to form a heatmap. The price range is divided into a user-defined number of bins (Number of Heatmap Bins), and each bin is drawn as a colored box (blue for buy-side, red for sell-side). The transparency of the heatmap boxes can be adjusted (Heatmap Transparency) to ensure they do not obscure the price action.
Why Combine These Components?
The combination of swing highs/lows, volume analysis, and a heatmap provides a powerful way to visualize liquidity in the market. Swing highs and lows are natural points where liquidity tends to accumulate, as they often coincide with areas where traders place stop-losses or pending orders. By incorporating volume data, the script quantifies the potential strength of these levels, giving traders insight into the magnitude of liquidity present. The heatmap visualization then aggregates these levels into a clear, color-coded overlay, making it easy to see where buy-side and sell-side liquidity is concentrated without cluttering the chart.
This mashup is particularly useful because it bridges price action (swing levels), market activity (volume), and visual clarity (heatmap), offering a holistic view of potential support and resistance zones that might influence price movements.
How to Use It
Add the Indicator to Your Chart:
Apply the script to your chart by adding it from the Pine Script library. It will overlay directly on your price chart.
Interpret the Heatmap:
Blue Zones (Buy-Side Liquidity): These appear below the current price and indicate levels where buying pressure or stop-losses from short positions may be located.
Red Zones (Sell-Side Liquidity): These appear above the current price and indicate levels where selling pressure or stop-losses from long positions may be located.
The intensity of the color is controlled by the Heatmap Transparency setting—lower values make the zones more opaque, while higher values make them more transparent.
Analyze the Bubbles:
Each liquidity zone is marked with a bubble showing the estimated liquidity amount in thousands (e.g., "10K"). The size of the bubble is scaled by the Bubble Size Multiplier, with larger bubbles indicating higher liquidity.
Adjust Settings for Your Needs:
Liquidity Settings:
Swing Length: Controls the lookback period for detecting swing highs and lows. A smaller value (e.g., 10) is better for shorter timeframes like 1-minute charts, while a larger value (e.g., 50) suits higher timeframes.
Liquidity Threshold: Defines how close two levels must be to be considered the same, preventing duplicate zones.
Volume Average Length: Sets the period for averaging volume data at swing points.
Volume Multiplier for Liquidity: Scales the volume to estimate liquidity amounts shown in the bubbles.
Lookback Period (Hours): Limits how far back the script looks for liquidity zones.
Use Price Window Filter: If enabled, only shows zones within a price range defined by Liquidity Window (Points per Side).
Heatmap Settings:
Number of Heatmap Bins: Determines how many price bins the heatmap is divided into. More bins create a finer resolution but may clutter the chart.
Heatmap Bin Height (Points): Sets the vertical height of each heatmap box in price points.
Heatmap Transparency: Adjusts the transparency of the heatmap boxes (0 = fully opaque, 100 = fully transparent).
Display Settings:
Bubble Size Multiplier: Scales the size of the bubbles showing liquidity amounts.
Trading Application:
Use the heatmap to identify potential support (blue zones) and resistance (red zones) levels where price may react.
Pay attention to zones with larger bubbles, as they indicate higher liquidity and may have a stronger impact on price.
Combine with other analysis tools (e.g., trendlines, indicators) to confirm trade setups.
What Makes It Original?
This script stands out by integrating swing high/low detection with volume-based liquidity estimation and a heatmap visualization in a single tool. Unlike traditional support/resistance indicators that only plot static lines, this script dynamically aggregates liquidity zones into a heatmap, making it easier to see clusters of potential buying or selling pressure. The addition of volume-derived liquidity amounts in labeled bubbles provides a unique quantitative measure of each zone's strength, helping traders prioritize key levels. The color-coded buy/sell distinction further enhances its utility by visually separating zones based on their likely market impact.
Example Use Case
On a 1-minute chart of EUR/USD, you might set Swing Length to 10 to capture short-term pivots, Lookback Period (Hours) to 4 to focus on recent data, and Liquidity Window to 200 points (20 pips) to show only nearby zones. The heatmap will then display blue zones below the current price where buy-side liquidity may act as support, and red zones above where sell-side liquidity may act as resistance. A bubble showing "50K" at a blue zone indicates significant buy-side liquidity, suggesting a potential bounce if the price approaches that level.

Stop Hunts [MK]Liquidity rests above/below previous highs and lows because these are the areas where traders are most likely to leave their orders/stop losses. The market can tap into this liquidity source by going beyond the previous highs and lows, this liquidity can then be used to reverse the market in the opposite direction.
As traders we may want to know if price will continue beyond previous highs and lows, or reverse the market. If price looks to be reversing after tapping into liquidity, this can be a good area to enter a trade. The same area can be used as a take profit level also.
The indicator identifies previous high/lows in two ways:
1. previous high/lows using 'PIVOT POINTS'. Pivots are easy to spot and are obvious within a price trend. Also called 'higher highs", "lower lows" etc. The number of candles required to form the pivot point can be adjusted in the script settings.
see below example of pivot point and stop hunt:
www.tradingview.com
see how price reversed upwards after stop hunt on pivot point above.
2. previous candle high/lows. A previous candles high and low are also good areas of liquidity.
see below example of previous candle stop hunt:
see how price reversed upwards after stop hunt on previous candle low above.
Personally, I use the pivot point stop hunts on lower timeframes and previous candle stop hunts on higher timeframes. However users can adjust on which timeframes to show the indicator depending on their own trading style.
As ever all items within 'settings' are customizable.
The indicator is by no means a 'trading strategy' and users should be fully aware of the stop hunt concept and have conducted extensive back-testing before using with 'live' accounts.
The indicator may also serve as a 'teaching aid' to new students and as a reminder to more experienced traders.
Liquidity-Finder ICT / SMCIn the context of ICT and the Smart Money Concept, liquidity is likely viewed as a crucial factor for determining the strength and sustainability of a market move. Smart Money is often associated with large institutional traders who have the ability to influence liquidity.
Liquidity Sweep:
A liquidity sweep in this context might involve Smart Money intentionally executing trades across various price levels to assess market depth and liquidity. This information can be used to identify potential areas of interest for Smart Money to initiate or exit positions without causing significant price disruptions.
Stop Hunt:
Stop hunting is a concept that Smart Money traders may employ to deliberately trigger stop orders in the market. By doing so, they can create temporary price movements that allow them to accumulate or liquidate positions at more favorable prices before the market reacts.
Smart Money Concept (SMC):
The Smart Money Concept revolves around the idea that large institutional traders (Smart Money) have superior information and resources compared to retail traders. Understanding the behavior of Smart Money, as taught in ICT and SMC, involves analyzing market dynamics, order flow, and liquidity to make more informed trading decisions.
Liquidating:
Liquidating refers to the process of selling or closing out existing positions. In the context of Smart Money, the term could imply that institutional traders are actively managing their positions, either taking profits or cutting losses strategically based on their analysis of market conditions.

Liquidity Hunt SwiftEdgeThe "Liquidity Hunt Dashboard By SwiftEdge" indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying potential liquidity zones by placing a dynamic target line based on swing points and weighted liquidity. It leverages technical analysis tools such as SMA (Simple Moving Average), pivot points, and volume to predict market movements and provides daily statistics on hits and success rate. The target line updates automatically when the price hits it, adapting to the market trend (up, down, or neutral). A dashboard displays the current price, target level, prediction, and trend, making it easy to make informed trading decisions.
Features:
Target Line: A yellow dashed line marks the next expected liquidity level (up to approximately 20 pips away on 1m).
Prediction: Displays "Up (Chasing Sell Liquidity)," "Down (Chasing Buy Liquidity)," or "Neutral" based on trend and liquidity.
Daily Statistics: Tracks hits and success rate, resetting daily.
Trend Indicator: Shows market direction ("Up," "Down," or "Neutral") in the dashboard.
Dynamic Updates: The line moves to a new target level when the price hits the current target.

Liquidity Sweep DetectorThe Liquidity Sweep Detector represents a technical analysis tool specifically designed to identify market microstructure patterns typically associated with institutional trading activity. According to Harris (2003), institutional traders frequently employ tactics where they momentarily break through price levels to trigger stop orders before redirecting the market in the opposite direction. This phenomenon, commonly referred to as "stop hunting" or "liquidity sweeping," constitutes a significant aspect of institutional order flow analysis (Osler, 2003). The current implementation provides retail traders with a means to identify these patterns, potentially aligning their trading decisions with institutional movements rather than becoming victims of such strategies.
Osler's (2003) research documents how stop-loss orders tend to cluster around significant price levels, creating concentrations of liquidity. Taylor (2005) argues that sophisticated institutional participants systematically exploit these liquidity clusters by inducing price movements that trigger these orders, subsequently profiting from the ensuing price reaction. The algorithmic detection of such patterns involves several key processes. First, the indicator identifies swing points—local maxima and minima—through comparison with historical price data within a definable lookback period. These swing points correspond to what Bulkowski (2011) describes as "significant pivot points" that frequently serve as liquidity zones where stop orders accumulate.
The core detection algorithm utilizes a multi-stage process to identify potential sweeps. For high sweeps, it monitors when price exceeds a previous swing high by a specified threshold percentage, followed by a bearish candle that closes below the original swing high level. Conversely, for low sweeps, it detects when price drops below a previous swing low by the threshold percentage, followed by a bullish candle closing above the original swing low. As noted by Lo and MacKinlay (2011), these price patterns often emerge when large institutional players attempt to capture liquidity before initiating significant directional moves.
The indicator maintains historical arrays of detected sweep events with their corresponding timestamps, enabling temporal analysis of market behavior following such events. Visual elements include horizontal lines marking sweep levels, background color highlighting for sweep events, and an information table displaying active sweeps with their corresponding price levels and elapsed time since detection. This visualization approach allows traders to quickly identify potential institutional activity without requiring complex interpretation of raw price data.
Parameter customization includes adjustable lookback periods for swing point identification, sweep threshold percentages for signal sensitivity, and display duration settings. These parameters allow traders to adapt the indicator to various market conditions and timeframes, as markets demonstrate different liquidity characteristics across instruments and periods (Madhavan, 2000).
Empirical studies by Easley et al. (2012) suggest that retail traders who successfully identify and act upon institutional liquidity sweeps may achieve superior risk-adjusted returns compared to conventional technical analysis approaches. However, as cautioned by Chordia et al. (2008), such patterns should be considered within broader market context rather than in isolation, as their predictive value varies significantly with overall market volatility and liquidity conditions.

Liquidity Analysis with Volume, ATR, and Chaikin Oscillator
Script Name: Liquidity Analysis with Volume, ATR, and Chaikin Oscillator
Description: This script analyzes market liquidity using three key indicators: Volume, ATR (Average True Range), and the Chaikin Oscillator. Based on the combination of these indicators, the script identifies three market conditions and visually highlights them with background colors:
High Liquidity Uptrend (Green Background):
Occurs when volume is high, ATR is above the threshold, and the Chaikin Oscillator is positive. This indicates strong liquidity with an upward trend in the market.
Alert: "High Liquidity Uptrend detected."
High Liquidity Downtrend (Red Background):
Occurs when volume is high, ATR is above the threshold, and the Chaikin Oscillator is negative. This signals strong liquidity but with a downward market trend.
Alert: "High Liquidity Downtrend detected."
Low Liquidity Stagnant Market (Yellow Background):
Occurs when volume is low, and ATR is below the threshold. This suggests a market with low liquidity and minimal price movement, indicating a range or stagnant phase.
Alert: "Low Liquidity Stagnant market detected."
Input Settings Panel:
Volume Threshold: This value sets the minimum volume required to determine high liquidity. If the volume is above this value, it is considered "high volume."
ATR Length: Defines the number of periods used to calculate ATR. The higher the value, the more smoothed the ATR calculation.
ATR Threshold: This sets the minimum ATR value required to signal a market with significant volatility. If ATR is above this value, the market is considered to have high volatility.
These settings allow you to fine-tune the script based on the characteristics of the asset being analyzed.

With customizable settings for volume analysis and volatility measurement , this indicator can be integrated into a wide range of trading strategies. It not only highlights these zones visually but also provides volume data labels and alerts for timely decision-making.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Volume and Volatility Settings: Adjust the Volume SMA Length , Volume Threshold Multiplier , and Price Std. Dev. Length to suit the typical trading volume and volatility of the asset you are analyzing.
⚠ Confirmed Bars Only: Signals are generated only on confirmed bars. This minimizes false signals due to intra-bar noise and also prevents indicator repainting .
⚠ Risk Management: Liquidity zones may signal areas of potential accumulation or distribution, but they should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools (e.g., support/resistance levels, trendlines, or momentum indicators). Trading involves risk, and it is recommended to combine this indicator with proper risk management techniques.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Liquidity zones indicate potential interest areas but don't guarantee price reactions. Always confirm with additional analysis and proper risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
📈 Happy trading! 🚀
Liquidity LinesLiquidity Lines Indicator
This advanced TradingView indicator identifies key liquidity zones on your price chart by detecting bullish and bearish engulfing candles, which often signify areas where liquidity accumulates.

Key Features :
-Aggregated Bars Option : Smooth out price data by grouping bars together, enabling clearer liquidity zone identification on higher timeframes or noisy charts.
-Upper Liquidity Lines : Displays dashed lines at recent highs where bearish engulfing patterns indicate potential resistance or supply zones.
-Lower Liquidity Lines : Displays dashed lines at recent lows where bullish engulfing patterns suggest potential support or demand zones.
-Customizable Colors : Choose your preferred colors for bullish (default black) and bearish (default white) liquidity lines for better visual distinction.
-Automatic Line Cleanup : Maintains chart clarity by automatically removing old liquidity lines after a configurable limit.
-Dynamic Alerts : Trigger alerts when price breaches upper or lower liquidity lines, signaling potential breakout or reversal opportunities.
Use Cases :
Liquidity Sweep with EMAThis Pine Script indicator helps traders identify potential market reversals based on liquidity sweeps, where the price moves through the previous candle's low or high and then closes above or below the previous candle's wick. These are often seen as significant market moves or liquidity grabs before a potential reversal or continuation.
The indicator is also equipped with an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) as an optional visual aid to give traders a sense of the prevailing trend, though it is not used as part of the signal generation logic.
Key Features:
Liquidity Sweep Detection:
Bullish Sweep: Triggered when the current candle sweeps below the low of the previous candle and then closes above the high of the previous candle. This indicates a potential market reversal to the upside after the liquidity sweep.
Bearish Sweep: Triggered when the current candle sweeps above the high of the previous candle and then closes below the low of the previous candle. This indicates a potential market reversal to the downside after the liquidity sweep.
EMA:
The EMA (50) is plotted on the chart for visual trend guidance. While it is not used to confirm the signals, it can help traders see if the market is in a general uptrend or downtrend.
Signal Presentation:
Buy Signal: The indicator will plot a green upward arrow below the candle when a bullish liquidity sweep is detected.
Sell Signal: The indicator will plot a red downward arrow above the candle when a bearish liquidity sweep is detected.
Timeframe Filter:
The indicator only generates signals on the following timeframes: 30-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and Daily. This helps to ensure the sweeps are significant and likely to result in meaningful price moves.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set up for both bullish and bearish sweep signals, so traders can be notified when these events occur.
Customizable:
EMA Length: The length of the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) can be adjusted. By default, it is set to 50, but you can modify this to fit your trading strategy.
Show EMA Option: You can toggle whether or not to display the EMA line on the chart.
How It Works:
The indicator looks for price action patterns where the current candle sweeps through the high or low of the previous candle and closes beyond the previous wick.
These patterns are often seen as potential traps, where the price initially moves in one direction (sweeping the liquidity) and then quickly reverses, making them important for traders who want to catch reversals or breakouts after a liquidity sweep.
The EMA (50) gives a general trend direction but doesn't directly affect the trade signals. It serves as a visual reference for trend analysis.
Potential Use Cases:
Reversal Trading: Traders can use this indicator to catch reversals after a liquidity sweep. The green upward arrows may indicate a bullish reversal, while the red downward arrows may indicate a bearish reversal.
Trend Trading: The EMA can help traders gauge the overall market trend. If the price is above the EMA, the market may be in an uptrend, and traders may focus on bullish sweeps. Conversely, if the price is below the EMA, the market may be in a downtrend, and traders may focus on bearish sweeps.
Confirmation with Other Indicators: Although the EMA is not used to confirm signals in this script, it can be combined with other indicators (like RSI, Volume, or MACD) to enhance the accuracy of your trades.
Final Thoughts:
This script is designed to identify liquidity sweeps and price reversals based on price action alone, without relying on complex indicators. The optional EMA serves as a helpful tool for understanding the overall market trend. It’s ideal for traders looking to spot potential reversal points after significant price sweeps and is suitable for multiple timeframes (30m, 1h, 4h, Daily).

Liquidity + Engulfment StrategyThis strategy identifies potential trading opportunities by combining bullish and bearish engulfing candle patterns with liquidity seal-off points. The logic is based on the concept of engulfing candles, which signal a shift in market sentiment, and liquidity lines, which represent local price extremes (highs and lows) that can indicate potential reversal or continuation points.
Key Features:
Mode Selection
The strategy allows for three modes: "Both", "Bullish Only", and "Bearish Only". Users can choose whether to trade both directions, only bullish setups, or only bearish setups.
Time Range
Users can define a specific time range for when the strategy is active, enabling tailored analysis and trade execution over a desired period.
Engulfing Candles
Bullish Engulfing: A candle that closes above the high of the previous bearish candle, signaling potential upward momentum.
Bearish Engulfing: A candle that closes below the low of the previous bullish candle, indicating a potential downtrend.
Liquidity Seal-Off Points
The strategy detects local highs and local lows within a specified lookback period, which can serve as critical support and resistance points.
A bullish signal is triggered when the price touches a lower liquidity point (local low), and a bearish signal is triggered at a higher liquidity point (local high).
Signal Confirmation
Signals are only triggered when both an engulfing candle and the price action at a liquidity seal-off point align. This helps filter out weaker signals.
Consecutive signals are prevented by locking the trade direction after an initial signal and waiting for the liquidity line to be broken before re-triggering a signal.
Entry and Exit Conditions
The strategy can enter both long (bullish) or short (bearish) positions based on the mode and signals.
Exit is based on opposing signals or reaching predefined stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Alerts
The strategy supports alert conditions to notify users when bullish engulfing after a lower liquidity touch or bearish engulfing after an upper liquidity touch is detected.

Liquidity + Internal Market Shift StrategyLiquidity + Internal Market Shift Strategy
This strategy combines liquidity zone analysis with the internal market structure, aiming to identify high-probability entry points. It uses key liquidity levels (local highs and lows) to track the price's interaction with significant market levels and then employs internal market shifts to trigger trades.
Key Features:
Internal Shift Logic: Instead of relying on traditional candlestick patterns like engulfing candles, this strategy utilizes internal market shifts. A bullish shift occurs when the price breaks previous bearish levels, and a bearish shift happens when the price breaks previous bullish levels, indicating a change in market direction.
Liquidity Zones: The strategy dynamically identifies key liquidity zones (local highs and lows) to detect potential reversal points and prevent trades in weak market conditions.
Mode Options: You can choose to run the strategy in "Both," "Bullish Only," or "Bearish Only" modes, allowing for flexibility based on market conditions.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit: Customizable stop-loss and take-profit levels are integrated to manage risk and lock in profits.
Time Range Control: You can specify the time range for trading, ensuring the strategy only operates during the desired period.
This strategy is ideal for traders who want to combine liquidity analysis with internal structure shifts for precise market entries and exits.
This description clearly outlines the strategy's logic, the flexibility it provides, and how it works. You can adjust it further to match your personal trading style or preferences!
Liquidity IndicatorThe Liquidity Indicator helps identify key price levels where liquidity may be concentrated by highlighting local highs and local lows on the chart. These levels are calculated using a lookback period to determine the highest and lowest points in the recent price action.
Local Highs: Displayed as red lines, these indicate recent peaks where price has experienced rejection or a possible reversal point.
Local Lows: Displayed as green lines, these represent recent troughs where price may find support or experience a bounce.
This indicator is useful for spotting potential areas of interest for price reversal or continuation, as high liquidity zones may lead to more significant price movements.
Key Features:
Adjustable lookback period to define the scope for identifying local highs and lows.
Continuous plotting without any time restrictions, providing real-time insights into liquidity conditions.
Alerts available for when a local high or local low is detected, enabling timely market analysis.
Use Case:
This indicator can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools or strategies to help identify significant price levels where liquidity could impact price action. It is suitable for both intraday and swing traders looking for key price zones where potential reversals or continuations might occur.
Liquidity weighted SupertrendOverview
The Liquidity Weighted Supertrend Indicator (LWST) is an advanced iteration of the traditional Supertrend indicator, meticulously crafted to improve trend detection by incorporating liquidity into its calculations. By weighting price movements according to trading volume, the LWST becomes more responsive to significant market activities, offering traders a more accurate depiction of market trends.
Indicator Description
The Liquidity Weighted Supertrend Indicator is a versatile and adaptive tool designed to assist traders in recognizing trends and potential reversal points within the market. This indicator features two operational modes: Aggressive and Smoothed, allowing traders to tailor trend detection to their specific trading style and market conditions.
Key Features
Two Supertrend Modes:
Aggressive Mode: This mode offers more responsive signals, ideal for short-term trading. It utilizes an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to smooth the price data, resulting in quicker reactions to market changes.
Smoothed Mode: This mode provides more stable signals, suitable for longer-term trading, by employing a Simple Moving Average (SMA). Note that when "Smoothed" mode is selected, the "Fast MA length" input is not utilized, focusing instead on producing smoother trend lines.
LWMA Calculation:
The Liquidity Weighted Moving Average (LWMA) is a distinctive feature of the LWST, blending volume and price action to filter out market noise and pinpoint significant price movements. This calculation begins with the liquidity factor, determined by multiplying volume with the price change, which is then smoothed using an EMA for accuracy.
Customizable Parameters:
Factor: Adjusts the Supertrend line's sensitivity to price movements.
Supertrend Length: Defines the lookback period for the Average True Range (ATR) calculation, which affects the width of the Supertrend channel.
Fast and Slow MA Lengths: Allows customization of the fast and slow moving averages used in the LWMA calculation, offering further control over the indicator's responsiveness.
How the Indicator Works
LWMA Smoothing:
The LWST calculates liquidity by multiplying volume with the absolute difference between the close and open prices. This liquidity value is smoothed using an EMA and compared to its standard deviation, identifying significant price movements. Depending on the selected mode, the price data (hl2) is smoothed either with an EMA (in Aggressive Mode) or an SMA (in Smoothed Mode). It’s important to note that when Smoothed mode is active, the "Fast MA length" input does not affect the output.
Visual Signals:
The Supertrend line is visually represented on the chart, with different colors indicating bullish (lime) and bearish (red) trends.
Buy and sell signals are clearly marked with arrows: green triangles indicate potential buying opportunities (when the price crosses above the Supertrend line), and red triangles suggest selling opportunities (when the price crosses below the Supertrend line).
Additional arrows may appear, signaling potential trend reversals, providing further confirmation for traders.
How to Use the Indicator
Configuring the Indicator:
Supertrend Type: Choose between Aggressive and Smoothed modes depending on your trading strategy and the current market conditions. Aggressive mode is better suited for shorter timeframes, while Smoothed mode provides more consistent signals for longer-term analysis.
Factor and Length Settings: Customize the Factor, Supertrend Length, and Moving Average lengths to fine-tune the sensitivity and responsiveness of the Supertrend line, adapting the indicator to various market environments.
Interpreting the Signals:
Trend Identification: The Supertrend line offers a clear visualization of the current market trend. A green line indicates a bullish trend, suggesting upward price movement, while a red line indicates a bearish trend, signaling potential downward price movement.
Entry and Exit Points: The arrows plotted by the LWST provide straightforward entry and exit signals. Green arrows signal potential buy opportunities, indicating that the price may continue to rise, while red arrows signal potential sell opportunities, suggesting that the price may decline. These visual cues help traders make informed decisions based on the current market trend.
Liquidity LevelsThe "Liquidity Levels" indicator on TradingView is designed to identify and highlight liquidity levels in the market. This indicator is based on pivot highs and lows with an adjustable offset to adjust the importance and length of the identified levels.
The strength of this indicator lies in its ability to highlight changes in liquidity levels, which can be crucial for traders. By marking pivot highs and lows, potential areas of high liquidity are highlighted, which can indicate where significant market movements or reversal points may occur.
The flexibility of whether the calculation is based on the closing price or the high/low prices allows for customisable analysis. The visual representation of liquidity levels by lines makes it easier to identify and monitor these key areas in the chart, which can provide additional value for traders.
Liquidity Channel with B/SIndicator - Liquidity Level
Which calculates the liquidity levels based on the highest high and lowest low of the specified period. It determines the middle line, upper line, and lower line of the liquidity channel. The liquidity level is the average of the upper and lower lines, and the liquidity level distance is half of the difference between the upper and lower lines.
Here, the code determines if the conditions for overbought and oversold signals are met. It compares the current closing price with the previous opening price to determine the color of the bar (red or green). If the conditions are met and the bar color matches the expected direction (red for overbought and green for oversold), the respective signals are triggered.
The code plots buy and sell signals on the chart using shape labels. It displays "Buy" labels below the bars for buy signals and "Sell" labels above the bars for sell signals. Additionally, it colors the bars in gray. The code also sets up alert conditions to send notifications when buy or sell signals occur.
*************** Please note that this is a high-level overview of the code's functionality. The specific details and calculations may vary based on the parameters and settings provided in the code.
*************** Remember, trading involves risks, and it's important to thoroughly test any strategy and consider risk management principles before using it in live trading. It's recommended to consult with a knowledgeable financial advisor or professional trader for guidance and assistance in developing and implementing trading strategies.

Liquidity Sweep Reversal [Grimoire]The Liquidity Sweep Reversal indicator is designed to spot potential turning points by watching for “liquidity sweeps” above key prior highs. Specifically, it marks when price briefly pushes above levels such as:
The high of the previous candle
The high of the prior trading day
The high of the previous week
These sweeps often trigger stop-hunts or liquidity hunts, after which price frequently reverses. By highlighting those moments, the indicator helps you anticipate and trade these reversal moves more easily.
RSI + MACD + Liquidity FinderLiquidity Finder: The liquidity zones are heuristic and based on volume and swing points. You may need to tweak the volumeThreshold and lookback to match the asset's volatility and timeframe.
Timeframe: This script works on any timeframe, but signals may vary in reliability (e.g., higher timeframes like 4H or 1D may reduce noise).
Customization: You can modify signal conditions (e.g., require only RSI or MACD) or add filters like trend direction using moving averages.
Backtesting: Use TradingView's strategy tester to evaluate performance by converting the indicator to a strategy (replace plotshape with strategy.entry/strategy.close).
