cephxs + fadi / HTF PSPHTF PSP - PRECISION SWING POINTS
Detect divergence-based Precision Swing Points (PSPs) across multiple higher timeframes with automatic correlated asset detection.
WHAT'S NEW (vs Original HTF Candles)
This indicator builds on @fadizeidan's excellent ICT HTF Candles foundation with significant new functionality, depending on who you ask of course:
✨ PSP Divergence Detection: Automatically identifies Precision Swing Points where price diverges from correlated assets—the original has no divergence analysis
✨ Auto Asset Correlation: Uses AssetCorrelationUtils library to detect and pair correlated assets (ES↔NQ↔DXY, BTC↔ETH, Gold↔Silver, etc.)—no manual setup required
✨ Multi-Asset Comparison: Tracks up to 3 correlated assets simultaneously with divergence relationships between all pairs
✨ Dynamic Asset Reordering: When you switch charts, the indicator automatically reorders assets so your chart is always primary
✨ Inverse Correlation Support: Properly handles inversely correlated assets like DXY (bullish DXY = bearish signal for risk assets)
✨ HTF Sweep Detection: New sweep line feature highlights when HTF candles take out previous highs/lows and close back inside. One of my followers asked me for this, there you go anon.
🔧 Streamlined to 3 HTFs: Focused design with 3 HTF slots (vs 6) for cleaner charts and better performance
The original remains excellent for pure HTF candle visualization. This version adds institutional flow analysis through divergence detection.
WHAT IT DOES
This indicator displays Higher Timeframe (HTF) candles to the right of your chart and highlights Precision Swing Points—pivots where price diverges from correlated assets. When ES makes a new high but NQ doesn't follow, or gold pushes higher while DXY fails to confirm, you're looking at institutional repositioning.
PSPs mark these moments on your HTF candles, giving you a clean visual signal for potential reversals.
HOW IT WORKS
Divergence Detection
The indicator compares price action between your chart and up to two correlated assets. A divergence occurs when one asset makes a directional move (bullish/bearish candle) while a correlated asset moves the opposite direction.
Three divergence relationships are tracked:
Primary vs Secondary (e.g., ES vs NQ)
Primary vs Tertiary (e.g., ES vs DXY)
Secondary vs Tertiary (e.g., NQ vs DXY)
PSP Confirmation
A candle is marked as a PSP when:
A divergence exists between correlated assets
A swing pivot forms (high > previous high AND high > next high, or vice versa for lows)
This dual confirmation filters noise and highlights only meaningful institutional activity.
Automatic Asset Detection
In Auto mode, the indicator uses the AssetCorrelationUtils library to detect your chart's asset class and automatically select the most relevant correlated pairs:
Indices: ES ↔ NQ ↔ DXY, YM ↔ ES ↔ NQ
Forex: EURUSD ↔ DXY ↔ GBPUSD, USDJPY ↔ DXY ↔ US10Y
Crypto: BTC ↔ ETH ↔ DXY
Metals: Gold ↔ Silver ↔ DXY
Energy: CL (Oil) ↔ NG ↔ DXY
HTF Sweep Detection
Sweeps are detected when an HTF candle (C2) takes out the high or low of the previous candle (C1) and then closes back inside. This marks liquidity grabs on the higher timeframe.
HOW TO USE
Enable HTF timeframes: Select 1-3 higher timeframes relevant to your trading style (e.g., 30m, 90m, 4H for intraday traders)
Watch for PSP candles: When a candle body color changes to the divergence color, a PSP has formed
Note the direction: Bullish divergence (your asset bullish while correlated asset bearish) suggests upside; bearish divergence suggests downside
Combine with LTF structure: Use PSPs as bias, then look for entry on lower timeframes (CHoCH, FVG, etc.)
Sweeps confirm liquidity: A sweep followed by a PSP is a strong reversal signal

BEST PRACTICES
Use PSPs as directional bias, not direct entries—wait for LTF confirmation
A PSP at a key level (previous day high, weekly open) carries more weight
Multiple PSPs across different HTFs pointing the same direction = stronger signal
Sweeps that fail to hold (sweep + PSP) often mark significant reversals
In Auto mode, trust the library's asset selection—it's been tuned for common correlations
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Divergences and PSPs do not guarantee reversals—always use proper risk management and confirm signals with your own analysis. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

cephxs + fadi / Previous Time Based Dealing RangesPREVIOUS TIME BASED DEALING RANGES
Visualize previous and current higher timeframe dealing ranges with dual-box OHLC representation, extending reference lines, and HTF candle displays.
Open Source Fork of @fadizeidan 's HTF Candles Indicator
OVERVIEW
This indicator displays time-based dealing ranges from higher timeframes directly on your chart. It shows the complete price action structure of previous (or current/forming) periods using a dual-box system: one box for the full High-Low range and another for the Open-Close body. Reference lines extend from key levels to help identify potential support, resistance, and mean reversion zones.
Perfect for traders who use ICT concepts, market structure analysis, or any methodology that relies on understanding where price has been relative to previous dealing ranges.
KEY FEATURES
Dual-Box Range Visualization: Each range displays two boxes - the full H-L range (outer) and the O-C body (inner) - giving immediate visual context of candle structure
Multiple Timeframes: Support for 90m, 4H, 6H, 1D, 1W, 1M, and 3M ranges
Previous/Current Mode: View completed ranges (Previous) or the forming range (Current) with real-time updates
Auto Mode: Automatically selects the appropriate range based on your chart timeframe
Reference Lines: Extending lines from High, Mid, Low (or Quadrants: H/75/M/25/L) with trade-into detection

cephxs / New X Opening Gaps [Pro +]NWOG & NDOG - OPENING GAPS
Smart Gap Detection with Intelligent Filtering
Visualizes New Week Opening Gaps (NWOGs) and New Day Opening Gaps (NDOGs) with built-in intelligence to show you only what matters. No more cluttered charts with gaps from 3 months ago that price will never revisit.
THE PROBLEM WITH GAP INDICATORS
Most gap indicators dump every single gap on your chart and call it a day. You end up with 50 boxes cluttering your screen, half of which are miles away from current price and the other half are so tiny they're basically noise.
This one's different and I explain why below.
SMART FILTERING (THE GOOD STUFF)
Two filters work together to keep your chart clean:
Size Filter: Uses ATR-based detection to filter out insignificant gaps, dynamic with less volatile time periods
- Filter None: Show everything (if you really want chaos)
- Filter Insignificant: Hide the micro-gaps that don't matter
- Juicy Gaps Only: Only show gaps worth paying attention to
Distance Filter: Only displays gaps within range of current price
- Really Close: 0.5 ATR - tight focus on immediate levels
- Balanced: 1 ATR - sweet spot for most traders
- Slightly Far: 3 ATR - wider view for swing traders
Cleanup Interval: Controls how quickly out-of-range gaps disappear
- Immediately: Gaps hide/show every bar as price moves
- 5 / 15 / 30 Minutes: Gaps only update visibility at interval boundaries - reduces visual noise during choppy price action
The magic: gaps appear and disappear as price moves toward or away from them. Old gaps that price has left behind fade out, and gaps that become relevant fade back in. Use delayed cleanup intervals if you want gaps to "stick around" a bit longer before disappearing.
GAP TYPES EXPLAINED
New Week Opening Gaps (NWOGs):
The gap between Friday's close and Monday's open. These form over the weekend when markets are closed and often act as significant support/resistance.
Two classifications:
Void Gaps: Gap direction aligns with Friday's candle direction (continuation)
Overlap Gaps: Gap direction conflicts with Friday's candle (potential reversal)
New Day Opening Gaps (NDOGs):
The gap between one day's close and the next day's open. Smaller but frequent - useful for intraday traders looking for fill targets.
FEATURES
Automatic Week/Day Detection: Handles forex (17:00 ET open) and futures (18:00 ET open) correctly
DST-Aware: Uses New York timezone with automatic daylight saving adjustments
50% Equilibrium Line: Marks the midpoint of each gap - key level for entries
Days Ago Labels: Shows how old each gap is at a glance
Extension Modes: Choose between live-extending boxes or fixed-width boxes
Separate Color Schemes: Different colors for void vs overlap NWOGs, bullish vs bearish NDOGs

TIMEFRAME NOTES
Works on daily timeframe and below. Above daily, the indicator disables itself since NWOG/NDOG gap detection requires daily open/close data.
ASSET SUPPORT
Automatically handles different market open times:
Forex: Week opens Sunday 17:00 ET, closes Friday 17:00 ET
Futures: Week opens Sunday 18:00 ET, closes Friday 16:15 ET
Stocks/Other: Uses session-based detection
FAQ
Why do gaps appear and disappear?
That's the distance filter working. As price moves, gaps that were far away become relevant and appear. Gaps that price leaves behind disappear. This keeps your chart focused on actionable levels.
What's the difference between void and overlap gaps?
Void gaps continue Friday's direction (trend continuation). Overlap gaps conflict with Friday's direction (potential reversal setup). Different traders prefer different types.
Why can't I see any gaps?
Check your filter settings. "Juicy Gaps Only" with "Really Close" distance filter is very selective. Try "Filter Insignificant" with "Balanced" for more gaps.
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only. Opening gaps are one tool among many - they don't guarantee fills or reversals. Always use proper risk management and never trade based on a single indicator. Past gap fills don't guarantee future performance. Do your own analysis.
CHANGELOG
Pro +: Added smart size/distance filtering, void/overlap classification, NDOG support, DST-aware timezone handling
