TrendMaAlignmentStrategy - Long term tradesThis is another strategy based on moving average alignment and HighLow periods. This is more suitable for long term trend traders and mainly for stocks.
Candle is colored lime if : Lookback Period has at least one bar with moving averages fully aligned OR None of the bars in Lookback periods has negatively aligned moving averages (More than half are positively aligned).
Candle is colored orange if : Lookback Period has at least one bar with moving averages fully aligned in negative way OR none of the bars in lookback has positively aligned moving averages (More than half are negatively aligned).
If either of above conditions are met, candle is colored silver.
Moving average alignment parameters:
Moving Average Type : MA Type for calculating Aligned Moving Average Index
Lookback Period : Lookback period to check highest and lowest Moving Average index.
HighLow parameters:
Short High/Low Period: Short period to check highs and lows
Long High/Low Period: Longer Period to check highs and lows.
If short period high == long period high, which means, instrument has made new high in the short period.
ATR Parameters:
ATR Length: ATR periods
StopMultiplyer: To set stop loss.
ReentryStopMultiplyer: This is used when signal is green buy stop loss on previous trade is hit. In such cases, new order will not be placed until it has certain distance from stop line.
Trade Prameters:
Exit on Signal : To be used with caution. Enabling it will allow us to get out on bad trades early and helps exit trades in long consolidation periods. But, this may also cause early exit in the trend. If instrument is trending nicely, it is better to keep this setting unchecked.
Trade direction : Default is long only. Short trades are not so successful in backtest. Use it with caution.
Backtest years : limit backtesting to certain years.
Part of the logic used from study's below:
Other strategies based on these two studies are below (which are meant for short - medium terms):
Cari dalam skrip untuk "stop loss"
2 Candles Inside ATR2 agitated candles falling inside ATR range, awaiting possibly a big move.
Buy / Sell signals at combined high / low can be used as order with other as stop loss.
Counter trade, when this minimal stop loss is hit, is also as useful. However, wait till the SL candle closes, before opening position on the other side.
Works quite well on 15 mins chart, with settings of ATR duration 25 and multiplier 0.6. These settings are configurable, so feel free.
inwCoin Percent from all-time highSimple study to show the fact to some newbies in the market that it is VERY HARD to make a profit and get your portfolio back to all-time high if you don't know how to stop loss...
Some people think "Oh, ez if you down -90% you need only +90% to get 100% of your capital again"
But... actually....if your portfolio down -90% you need to go 1000% from current price to reach your start capital!!!!
This study will show
- Current symbol detail
- Percent down from All-time High ( ATH )
- Percent up from current price to reach ATH again
Profit and Stoploss CalculatorThis script is designed to display three stop loss areas to assist either with automation of risk management or identify and alert when price is in a range of a trade for risk to reward ratio.
In this version there are three stop losses and 1 PT. Mainly because i will most likely only be using 1 of the SL to pair with the PT.
Stoploss areas are displayed on both sides of the price for long and short calculations along with the two profit factors but the settings in the indicator it self apply to both sides in terms of percentage.
[BoTo] Pump&Dump StrategyThis strategy uses only long positions. It isn't used short positions, it doesn't use marginal trade, it doesn't use a pyramiding.
It is strategy uses only one indicator. Ourselves have constructed the indicator for cryptocurrencies. We called it 'Pump&Dump Ocsilator'. You can read as this indicator works here:
Not usual stop
Strategy uses 2 ways for closing of an unprofitable position. But it is possible to use only one way.
Way 1: if the indicator has distinguished a dump, then the long position needs to be closed when the candle is closed (for an example: to close a position when time 00:00 if you have chosen daily timeframe)
Way 2: the user himself chooses the size in settings of this script. Percent. If the user has chosen 100%, means isn't used absolutely. Because the price will never fall by 100%. If the user has chosen less than 100%, for example 5%, then the long position needs to be closed if the low of a candle was less than this price level of choosed stop-loss. But the position needs to be closed too when the candle is closed.
Strategy
A pump-signal: if the candle green and her body is 3 times more than norm
A dump-signal: on the contrary, if the candle red and her body is 3 times more than norm
For opening of a long position: it is necessary any pump-signal (if the position hasn't been open yet)
For closing of a long position: several ways:
1) Or any dump-signal is necessary
2) Or a stop-loss which was chosen by the user is necessary
MACDouble & StochRSI w/ safeties and variable time interval v0.3UPDATE:
IMPORTANT!!! MAKE SURE "RECALCULATE AFTER ORDER FILLED" IS CHECKED. I will have it on by default in the future.
This is a continuation of my previous scripts of two MACD indicators with a Stochastic RSI indicator.
New features:
- Alternate MACD time interval
You can now set the time interval for the second MACD indicator to a different resolution than the displayed chart.
Uncheck the box and select the desired interval. For example, if your chart is set to 15min then first MACD will be set at 15 min and you can select 5 min for the second MACD.
- Alternate StoRSI time interval
You can (and should) set the StochRSI to a different time interval as well. StochRSI hasn't worked great with previous versions. Now you can set it to a different time resolution as well. I strongly recommend you set it at a higher (slower) resolution; for example if your chart is set at 15min then you should test setting the StochRSI at 30 or 45min.
- ' True" StochRSI logic
Trading logic for StochRSI is now a true StochRSI, instead of just reading "k" and ignoring "d", K now has to be greater than D to buy and less than to sell.
- Safeties
A primitive but low risk safety in the form of an uptrend/downtrend price safety. If current close+high isn't greater than the previous close and high then the buy order will not be executed. The same applies for sell orders.
- Cap on losses from short positions
A stop loss safety set to 9000 for exiting sell positions. This will need refinement in the future but this puts a cap on losses from any sell position. At an initial currency of 10,000 this translates to 90.00. If it is giving you problems simply delete line 78 from the source code.
Please feel free to ask any questions or send me suggestions. This is still very much a work in progress and I'll try to polish up the rough spots but it is fully functional. With a slower StochRSI and the safeties I have gotten it to consistently outperform the old 2x MACD strategy script---typically by 3-fold.
IPDA with Order Blocks [Enhanced]Summary of the Code
This script plots IPDA Standard Deviations on a price chart, helping traders visualize potential support and resistance levels based on a series of user-defined deviations. It uses swing high/low points and time-based fractal lookbacks (monthly, weekly, daily, or intraday) to define price anchors and compute deviation lines.
Key features include:
Deviations: It calculates and plots deviation levels based on the distance between swing highs and lows, which traders can use as price targets or zones of interest.
Timeframes:
Monthly (higher timeframe analysis)
Weekly (medium-term analysis)
Daily and Intraday (shorter-term precision)
Customization:
Choose which deviation levels (e.g., 0, 1, -1, -2) to display.
Hide labels or adjust their sizes for cleaner charts.
Option to remove invalidated deviation levels dynamically.
Visual Cleanliness: Automatically removes clutter by hiding or deleting invalid deviation levels and focusing on active price zones.
How to Utilize It for Intraday Trading to Make $1,000
Here’s how to effectively use the indicator to optimize intraday trading:
1. Set the Right Timeframe:
Use the 15-minute or 1-hour chart for intraday setups.
Ensure the "Intraday" lookback option is enabled to focus on shorter-term swings.
2. Interpret the Levels:
Bearish Order Blocks: Look for red lines (bearish deviation) as potential resistance zones where the price may reverse downward.
Bullish Order Blocks: Look for green lines (bullish deviation) as potential support zones where the price may bounce upward.
3. Plan Entries and Exits:
Entry: Buy near a green order block or short near a red order block, confirming the trade with additional signals (e.g., candlestick patterns, momentum indicators).
Stop Loss: Place your stop below the green line (for buys) or above the red line (for shorts).
Profit Targets: Use deviation levels as targets (e.g., from the 0 level to +1 or -1).
4. Combine with Market Context:
Use the script alongside volume profile, trend indicators, or news events for confirmation.
Avoid trading during major news events unless aligned with deviations.
5. Position Sizing for $1,000 Goal:
Trade liquid instruments like Nasdaq futures (NQ) or major forex pairs.
Risk 1-2% of your capital on each trade and scale into positions if confirmed.
Target a profit of 10-20 points per trade on Nasdaq futures, with 1-2 trades daily.
6. Monitor Key Timeframes:
Pre-market (before 9:30 AM EST): Mark deviation levels to predict market open behavior.
Midday & Power Hour (3-4 PM EST): Watch for breakouts or retests around key deviation levels.
By combining this tool with disciplined risk management and a clear trading plan, you can systematically work toward your profit target while minimizing unnecessary risks

Position Size Calculator (Fixed % or ATR-based Stop Support)Position Size Calculator (Fixed % or ATR-based Stop Support)
Purpose and Background
This indicator allows traders to calculate appropriate position sizes directly on the chart, based on a key rule:
“What percentage of your capital are you willing to risk per trade?”
While many traders focus on entries and indicators, position sizing and risk allocation are often overlooked.
This tool visualizes and simplifies the “1% risk rule” promoted by IBD (Investor’s Business Daily) and William J. O’Neil, helping both beginners and experienced traders maintain disciplined capital management.
Key Features
Automatically calculates and displays:
・ Position Size
The number of units (shares, contracts, coins) you can hold based on your stop-loss range and risk allowance.
・ Stop Price
The price level at which your stop-loss would be triggered.
・ Risk Amount
The maximum loss per trade based on your portfolio size and risk percentage.
Two stop-loss modes available:
・ Fixed % Mode
O’Neil suggests using up to 8% stop-loss in uptrends and keeping it tighter (around 4%) in corrections. This mode allows flexible manual settings.
・ ATR-Based Mode
Uses the asset’s average volatility to dynamically calculate stop-loss width using the Average True Range (ATR).
ATR Usage and Recommended Settings
ATR helps you avoid noise-based stop-outs and align your risk with market volatility.
There are two parameters you can adjust:
・ ATR Length
Defines how many bars are used to calculate the average range.
・Shorter values (5–10) respond faster for day trades
・Longer values (14–21) offer smoother ranges for swing/position trades(Default is 14)
・ATR Multiplier
Sets how wide the stop-loss is by multiplying the ATR value:
・Day trading: 1.0–1.5×
・Swing trading: 1.5–2.5×
・Position trading: 2.0–3.0×
Practical Examples: Risk % × Stop-Loss % → Max Positions
This tool helps estimate how many positions you can hold in a portfolio based on your risk per trade and stop width.
Examples:
・Risk 0.5%, Stop 8% → Max 16 positions
・Risk 0.5%, Stop 4% → Max 8 positions
・Risk 1.0%, Stop 8% → Max 8 positions
・Risk 1.0%, Stop 4% → Max 4 positions
・Risk 2.0%, Stop 8% → Max 4 positions
・Risk 2.0%, Stop 4% → Max 2 positions
These assume worst-case scenarios where all positions are stopped out simultaneously within your overall portfolio risk limit.
Display & Customization Options
・ Currency Display: USD or JPY
No currency conversion is applied. Select based on your trading region (e.g., USD for U.S. stocks, JPY for Japanese stocks).
Support for additional currencies can be added upon request.
・ Show/Hide Decimal Places
Toggle decimals for better visibility. Ideal for fractional assets like crypto and CFDs.
・ Position of Output
Choose from top-right, middle-right, or bottom-right on the chart.
・ Text Display Size: Large / Normal / Small
Choose the table size that best suits your viewing preferences.
・ Explanation of Displayed Labels
・ Position Size : Units to buy/sell based on risk
・ Stop Price : Price where stop-loss is triggered
・ Risk Amount : Max loss allowed for the trade
How to Use
１、Set your Portfolio Size
２、Choose your Currency (USD or JPY)
３、Input Risk per Trade (%) (e.g., 1%)
４、Select Stop Loss Method
・ Fixed % : Enter a manual stop-loss percent (e.g., 8%)
・ ATR : Then also enter:
・ ATR Length : Number of bars used to calculate ATR (e.g., 14)
・ ATR Multiplier : Factor applied to ATR to determine stop-loss (e.g., 2.0)
５、Adjust decimals, label position, or text size as needed
６、The result is displayed in a table directly on your chart
Notes
・ Uses the current close price (close) as the basis
Real-time bid/ask data isn't available in Pine Script, so the close price is used for consistent results.
・ No buy/sell signals are generated
This tool is for position sizing and risk calculation only, not trade entries.
Recommended For
・Traders who want precise, rule-based position sizing
・Users following IBD or O’Neil’s 1% risk principle
・Those incorporating ATR for stop-loss strategies
・Multi-asset traders (stocks, crypto, CFDs, etc.)
・ Anyone who wants to calculate position size and risk without using a calculator or external tool—fully inside TradingView
Dynamic Liquidity Depth [BigBeluga]
Dynamic Liquidity Depth
A liquidity mapping engine that reveals hidden zones of market vulnerability. This tool simulates where potential large concentrations of stop-losses may exist — above recent highs (sell-side) and below recent lows (buy-side) — by analyzing real price behavior and directional volume. The result is a dynamic two-sided volume profile that highlights where price is most likely to gravitate during liquidation events, reversals, or engineered stop hunts.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Two-Sided Liquidity Profiles:
Plots two separate profiles on the chart — one above price for potential sell-side liquidity , and one below price for potential buy-side liquidity . Each profile reflects the volume distribution across binned zones derived from historical highs and lows.
Real Stop Zone Simulation:
Each profile is offset from the current high or low using an ATR-based buffer. This simulates where traders might cluster their stop-losses above swing highs (short stops) or below swing lows (long stops).
Directional Volume Analysis:
Buy-side volume is accumulated only from bullish candles (close > open), while sell-side volume is accumulated only from bearish candles (close < open). This directional filtering enhances accuracy by capturing genuine pressure zones.
Dynamic Volume Heatmap:
Each liquidity bin is rendered as a horizontal box with a color gradient based on volume intensity:
- Low activity bins are shaded lightly.
- High-volume zones appear more vividly in red (sell) or lime (buy).
- The maximum volume bin in each profile is emphasized with a brighter fill and a volume label.
Extended POC Zones:
The Point of Control (PoC) — the bin with the most volume — is extended backwards across the entire lookback period to mark critical resistance (sell-side) or support (buy-side) levels.
Total Volume Summary Labels:
At the center of each profile, a summary label displays Total Buy Liquidity and Total Sell Liquidity volume.
This metric helps assess directional imbalance — when buy liquidity is dominant, the market may favor upward continuation, and vice versa.
Customizable Profile Granularity:
You can fine-tune both Resolution (Bins) and Offset Distance to adjust how far profiles are displaced from price and how many levels are calculated within the ATR range.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates an ATR-based buffer above highs and below lows to define the top and bottom of the liquidity zones.
Using a user-defined lookback period, it scans historical candles and divides the buffered zones into bins.
Each bin checks if bullish (or bearish) candles pass through it based on price wicks and body.
Volume from valid candles is summed into the corresponding bin.
When volume exists in a bin, a horizontal box is drawn with a width scaled by relative volume strength.
The bin with the highest volume is highlighted and optionally extended backward as a zone of importance.
Total buy/sell liquidity is displayed with a summary label at the side of the profile.
🔵 USAGE/b]
Identify Stop Hunt Zones: High-volume clusters near swing highs/lows are likely liquidation zones targeted during fakeouts.
Fade or Follow Reactions: Price hitting a high-volume bin may reverse (fade opportunity) or break with strength (confirmation breakout).
Layer with Other Tools: Combine with market structure, order blocks, or trend filters to validate entries near liquidity.
Adjust Offset for Sensitivity: Use higher offset to simulate wider stop placement; use lower for tighter scalping zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Dynamic Liquidity Depth transforms raw price and volume into a spatial map of liquidity. By revealing areas where stop orders are likely hidden, it gives traders insight into price manipulation zones, potential reversal levels, and breakout traps. Whether you're hunting for traps or trading with the flow, this tool equips you to navigate liquidity with precision.
Guppy Multiple Moving Average (GMMA)The GMMA Momentum Indicator plots 12 EMAs on your chart, divided into two groups:
Short-term EMAs (6 lines, default periods: 3, 5, 8, 10, 12, 15): Represent short-term trader sentiment and momentum.
Long-term EMAs (6 lines, default periods: 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60): Reflect long-term investor behavior and broader market trends.
By analyzing the interaction between these two groups, the indicator identifies:
Bullish and bearish trends based on the relative positions of the short- and long-term EMAs.
Momentum strength through the spread or convergence of the EMAs.
Potential reversals or breakouts via compression signals.
This PineScript version enhances the traditional GMMA by adding visual cues like background colors, bearish signals, and compression detection, making it ideal for swing traders seeking clear, actionable insights.
The GMMA Momentum Indicator provides several key features:
1. Trend Identification
Bullish Trend: When the short-term EMAs (green lines) are above the long-term EMAs (blue lines) and spreading apart, it signals strong upward momentum. The chart background turns light green to highlight this condition.
Bearish Trend: When the short-term EMAs cross below the long-term EMAs and converge, it indicates downward momentum. The background turns light red, and an orange downward triangle appears above the bar to mark a new bearish signal.
2. Momentum Analysis
The spread between the short-term EMAs reflects the strength of short-term momentum. A wide spread suggests strong momentum, while a tight grouping indicates weakening momentum or consolidation. Similarly, the long-term EMAs act as dynamic support or resistance, guiding traders on the broader trend.
3. Compression Detection
Compression occurs when both the short-term and long-term EMAs converge, signaling low volatility and a potential breakout or reversal. A yellow upward triangle appears below the bar when compression is detected, alerting traders to watch for price action.
4. Visual Cues
Green short-term EMAs: Show short-term trader activity.
Blue long-term EMAs: Represent long-term investor sentiment.
Background colors: Light green for bullish trends, light red for bearish trends, and transparent for neutral conditions.
Orange downward triangles: Mark new bearish trends.
Yellow upward triangles: Indicate compression, hinting at potential breakouts.
How to Use the GMMA Momentum Indicator for Swing Trading
Swing trading involves capturing price moves over days to weeks, and the GMMA Momentum Indicator is an excellent tool for this strategy. Here’s how to use it effectively:
1. Identifying Trade Entries
Buy Opportunities:
Look for a bullish trend (green background) where the short-term EMAs are above the long-term EMAs and spreading apart, indicating strong momentum.
A compression signal (yellow triangle) followed by a breakout above resistance or a bullish candlestick pattern can confirm an entry.
Example: On a daily chart, if the short-term EMAs cross above the long-term EMAs and the background turns green, consider entering a long position, especially if volume supports the move.
Sell Opportunities:
Watch for a bearish signal (orange downward triangle) or a bearish trend (red background) where the short-term EMAs cross below the long-term EMAs.
Example: If the short-term EMAs collapse below the long-term EMAs and an orange triangle appears, it may signal a shorting opportunity or a time to exit longs.
2. Managing Trades
Use the long-term EMAs as dynamic support (in uptrends) or resistance (in downtrends) to set stop-loss levels or trail stops.
Monitor the spread of the short-term EMAs. A widening spread suggests the trend is strong, while convergence may indicate it’s time to take profits or tighten stops.
3. Anticipating Reversals
Compression signals (yellow triangles) highlight periods of low volatility, often preceding significant price moves. Combine these with price action (e.g., breakouts or reversals) or other indicators (e.g., RSI or volume) for confirmation.
Example: If a compression signal appears near a key support level and the price breaks upward, it could signal the start of a new bullish swing.
4. Best Practices
Timeframes: The indicator works well on daily or 4-hour charts for swing trading, but you can adjust the EMA periods for shorter (e.g., 1-hour) or longer (e.g., weekly) timeframes.
Confirmation: Combine the GMMA with other tools like support/resistance levels, candlestick patterns, or oscillators (e.g., MACD) to reduce false signals.
Risk Management: Always use proper position sizing and stop-losses, as EMAs are lagging indicators and may produce delayed signals in choppy markets.

CandelaCharts - Liquidity Key Zones (LKZ)📝 Overview
The Liquidity Key Zones indicator displays the previous high and low levels for daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly timeframes. These levels serve as crucial price zones for trading any market or instrument. They are also high-probability reaction zones, ideal for trading using straightforward confirmation patterns.
Each of these levels plays a significant role in determining whether the market continues its momentum or reverses its bias. I like to think of these levels as dual magnets—they simultaneously attract and repel price. You might wonder how having opposing views can be useful. The key is to remain neutral about direction and establish your own rules to identify when these zones are likely to attract or repel price. I have my own set of rules, and you can develop yours.

📒 Usage
When the price breaks through a significant level, such as a daily, weekly, or monthly high or low, it often signals a potential reversal in market direction. This occurs because these levels represent key areas of support or resistance, where traders anticipate heightened activity, including profit-taking, stop-loss orders, or new positions being initiated.
Once the price breaches these levels, it may trigger a sharp reaction as market participants adjust their strategies, leading to a reversal. Monitoring price action and volume around these levels can provide valuable confirmation of such reversals.
Another effective approach to utilizing these pivot points is by incorporating them into a structured trading strategy, such as the X Model, which leverages multiple timeframes and technical tools to refine trade entries and exits.
X Model conditions:
(D1) Previous Day High (ERL)
(H1) Bullish FVG/IFVG/OB (IRL)
(m15) MSS / SMT
Only Short Above 00:00
By combining these elements, the X Model offers a comprehensive framework for leveraging pivot levels effectively, emphasizing confluence between liquidity zones, time-based rules, and multi-timeframe analysis to enhance trading accuracy and consistency.
🚨 Alerts
This script provides alert options for all signals.
Bearish Signal

Arpeet MACDOverview
This strategy is based on the zero-lag version of the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator, which captures short-term trends by quickly responding to price changes, enabling high-frequency trading. The strategy uses two moving averages with different periods (fast and slow lines) to construct the MACD indicator and introduces a zero-lag algorithm to eliminate the delay between the indicator and the price, improving the timeliness of signals. Additionally, the crossover of the signal line and the MACD line is used as buy and sell signals, and alerts are set up to help traders seize trading opportunities in a timely manner.
Strategy Principle
Calculate the EMA (Exponential Moving Average) or SMA (Simple Moving Average) of the fast line (default 12 periods) and slow line (default 26 periods).
Use the zero-lag algorithm to double-smooth the fast and slow lines, eliminating the delay between the indicator and the price.
The MACD line is formed by the difference between the zero-lag fast line and the zero-lag slow line.
The signal line is formed by the EMA (default 9 periods) or SMA of the MACD line.
The MACD histogram is formed by the difference between the MACD line and the signal line, with blue representing positive values and red representing negative values.
When the MACD line crosses the signal line from below and the crossover point is below the zero axis, a buy signal (blue dot) is generated.
When the MACD line crosses the signal line from above and the crossover point is above the zero axis, a sell signal (red dot) is generated.
The strategy automatically places orders based on the buy and sell signals and triggers corresponding alerts.
Advantage Analysis
The zero-lag algorithm effectively eliminates the delay between the indicator and the price, improving the timeliness and accuracy of signals.
The design of dual moving averages can better capture market trends and adapt to different market environments.
The MACD histogram intuitively reflects the comparison of bullish and bearish forces, assisting in trading decisions.
The automatic order placement and alert functions make it convenient for traders to seize trading opportunities in a timely manner, improving trading efficiency.
Risk Analysis
In volatile markets, frequent crossover signals may lead to overtrading and losses.
Improper parameter settings may cause signal distortion and affect strategy performance.
The strategy relies on historical data for calculations and has poor adaptability to sudden events and black swan events.
Optimization Direction
Introduce trend confirmation indicators, such as ADX, to filter out false signals in volatile markets.
Optimize parameters to find the best combination of fast and slow line periods and signal line periods, improving strategy stability.
Combine other technical indicators or fundamental factors to construct a multi-factor model, improving risk-adjusted returns of the strategy.
Introduce stop-loss and take-profit mechanisms to control single-trade risk.
Summary
The MACD Dual Crossover Zero Lag Trading Strategy achieves high-frequency trading by quickly responding to price changes and capturing short-term trends. The zero-lag algorithm and dual moving average design improve the timeliness and accuracy of signals. The strategy has certain advantages, such as intuitive signals and convenient operation, but also faces risks such as overtrading and parameter sensitivity. In the future, the strategy can be optimized by introducing trend confirmation indicators, parameter optimization, multi-factor models, etc., to improve the robustness and profitability of the strategy.
ICT Concepts: MML, Order Blocks, FVG, OTECore ICT Trading Concepts
These strategies are designed to identify high-probability trading opportunities by analyzing institutional order flow and market psychology.
1. Market Maker Liquidity (MML) / Liquidity Pools
Idea: Institutional traders ("market makers") place orders around key price levels where retail traders’ stop losses cluster (e.g., above swing highs or below swing lows).
Application: Look for "liquidity grabs" where price briefly spikes to these levels before reversing.
Example: If price breaks a recent high but reverses sharply, it may indicate a liquidity grab to trigger retail stops before a trend reversal.
2. Order Blocks (OB)
Idea: Institutional orders are often concentrated in specific price zones ("order blocks") where large buy/sell decisions occurred.
Application: Identify bullish order blocks (strong buying zones) or bearish order blocks (strong selling zones) on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H/4H charts).
Example: A bullish order block forms after a strong rally; price often retests this zone later as support.
3. Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Idea: A price imbalance occurs when candles gap without overlapping, creating an area of "unfair" price that the market often revisits.
Application: Trade the retracement to fill the FVG. A bullish FVG acts as support, and a bearish FVG acts as resistance.
Example: Three consecutive candles create a gap; price later returns to fill this gap, offering a entry point.
4. Time-Based Analysis (NY Session, London Kill Zones)
Idea: Institutional activity peaks during specific times (e.g., 7 AM – 11 AM New York time).
Application: Focus on trades during high-liquidity periods when banks and hedge funds are active.
Example: The "London Kill Zone" (2 AM – 5 AM EST) often sees volatility due to European market openings.
5. Optimal Trade Entry (OTE)
Idea: A retracement level (similar to Fibonacci retracement) where institutions re-enter trends after a pullback.
Application: Look for 62–79% retracements in a trend to align with institutional accumulation/distribution zones.
Example: In an uptrend, price retraces 70% before resuming upward—enter long here.
6. Stop Hunts
Idea: Institutions manipulate price to trigger retail stop losses before reversing direction.
Application: Avoid placing stops at obvious levels (e.g., above/below recent swings). Instead, use wider stops or wait for confirmation.
