CRT + PO3 Range Theory Hey everyone, I’ve put together a little script for TradingView that tries to show the classic CRT + PO3 (Power of Three) pattern. It’s still a work in progress, so please use it on a demo account and let me know what you think!
What It Does
Accumulation Phase: On each higher‐timeframe bar (e.g. 2-hour), it draws a shaded zone where price is hanging out. That’s when we assume “big players” are quietly building positions.
Manipulation Phase: If price briefly pokes above or below that zone but then slips back inside, it marks that wick as a shake-out.
Distribution Phase: When price finally closes cleanly outside the zone, it draws another shaded area and drops a “Distribution” label plus a big LONG or SHORT arrow on that bar.
You can tweak it so it only shows signals when a bar closes (no more weird flashing mid-bar), or even allow “direct” Distribution on a clean breakout without waiting for a fake wick first.
How to Set It Up
Add the script from your Indicators list.
Pick your HTF (I like 2-hour or 4-hour).
Turn “Show Zone Labels” on or off—these are the little “Accumulation/Manipulation/Distribution” tags.
Turn “Show Entry Signals” on to get the big LONG/SHORT arrows.
If you hate flicker, check “Show signals only at bar close.”
If you want to catch a swift breakout (no fake-out needed), check “Allow direct Distribution on clean breakout.”
There are also sliders for zone colors, transparency, label size, and how far above/below the bars the labels sit.
Why It’s Still a Beta
I’m not a CRT/PO3 guru—this is more of a hobby project and a little facination for this strategy.
There might be edge cases where it misses a shake-out or flags a Distribution too early.
I take no responsibility for your trades—please only run it on a demo account until we’ve worked out the quirks.
Feedback Wanted!
If you try it out, I’d love to hear:
Did the Manipulation wicks line up where you expected?
Were the Distribution arrows on the right bars?
Any ideas for easier settings or extra alerts?
Thanks for testing and helping me turn this into something solid!
Range
Range Breakout [sgbpulse]Range Breakout
1. Overview
The "Range Breakout " indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify and visually display price ranges on your chart using pivot points. It dynamically draws two distinct boxes – an External Range and an Internal Range – helping traders pinpoint potential support and resistance zones. Beyond its visual representation, the indicator offers a comprehensive set of 12 unique breakout alerts, providing real-time notifications for significant price movements outside these defined ranges. Additionally, it integrates RSI and MFI metrics for momentum confirmation.
2. How It Works
The indicator operates by identifying pivot points based on user-defined "left" and "right" bar lengths. A high pivot is a bar with a specified number of lower highs both to its left and right, and similarly for a low pivot.
External Range: Calculated using longer pivot lengths (default: 15 bars left, 6 bars right). This range represents broader, more significant price consolidation areas.
Internal Range: Calculated using shorter pivot lengths (default: 4 bars left, 3 bars right). This range captures tighter, more immediate price consolidations within the broader trend.
The External Range will always be greater than or equal to the Internal Range, as it's based on a wider historical context. Both ranges are displayed as transparent boxes on your chart, dynamically adjusting as new pivots are formed.
3. Key Features and Settings
Customizable Pivot Lengths:
External Range (Left/Right Bars): Adjust sensitivity for identifying the broader price range. Longer lengths lead to more stable, but less frequent, range updates.
Internal Range (Left/Right Bars): Adjust sensitivity for the tighter, more immediate price range.
Tool Tips: Minimum 6 bars for the External Range, and minimum 2 bars for the Internal Range.
Customizable Range Colors: Easily change the background colors of the External and Internal Range boxes to match your chart's aesthetic.
Dynamic Range Display: The indicator automatically updates the range boxes as new pivot highs and lows are formed, always presenting the most current valid ranges.
RSI / MFI Settings:
Timeframe Source: Select the timeframe for RSI and MFI calculation.
- Chart: Calculation based on the current chart timeframe.
- Daily: Always calculated based on the daily ("D") timeframe, even if the chart is on a lower timeframe.
RSI Length: Period length for RSI calculation (default: 14).
RSI Overbought Level: Overbought level for RSI (default: 70.0).
RSI Oversold Level: Oversold level for RSI (default: 30.0).
MFI Length: Period length for MFI calculation (default: 14).
MFI Overbought Level: Overbought level for MFI (default: 80.0).
MFI Oversold Level: Oversold level for MFI (default: 20.0).
4. Synergy of Ranges & Breakout Strength
The interaction between the External and Internal Ranges provides deep insights into price movement and breakout strength:
Immediate Direction: The movement of the Internal Range (up or down) indicates the short-term directional bias within the broader framework of the External Range.
Strength Confirmation: A breakout of the External Range, followed by a breakout of the Internal Range, confirms the strength of the move and increases confidence in the breakout.
Strong Momentum ("Leaving" Ranges Behind): When price breaks out with exceptionally strong momentum, it continues to move aggressively and does not immediately form new pivots. In such situations, the existing ranges (External and Internal) remain in place while the candles "leave them behind." A "Full Candle" breakout, where the entire candle moves past both ranges, indicates a particularly powerful and decisive move.
Momentum (RSI / MFI) as Confirmation:
- RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the speed and change of price movements. Extreme values (above 70 or below 30) indicate overbought/oversold conditions respectively, confirming strong momentum in a breakout.
- MFI (Money Flow Index): Similar to RSI but incorporates volume. Extreme values (above 80 or below 20) indicate strong money flow in/out, reinforcing breakout confirmation.
- Importance of Confirmation: If a breakout occurs but momentum indicators do not confirm it (for example, an upside breakout while RSI is declining), this could signal weakness in the move and the risk of a false breakout (Fakeout).
5. Visuals
The indicator provides clear visual representations on the chart:
Range Boxes:
Two dynamic boxes are drawn on the chart: one for the External Range and one for the Internal Range.
These boxes update continuously, displaying the current range boundaries based on the latest pivots. They provide an immediate visual indication of support and resistance levels.
RSI/MFI Status Labels:
Small text labels appear to the right of the current bar, vertically centered.
They display the status of RSI and MFI: RSI OB (Overbought), RSI OS (Oversold), MFI OB, MFI OS, along with the exact value.
Important: The labels remain on the chart as long as the condition holds (indicator is above/below the level), unlike alerts which mark a singular crossover event.
Plotting of Key Values:
The indicator plots six invisible series on the chart, primarily to allow the user to view the exact numerical values of:
- The upper and lower bounds of the External Range (External High, External Low).
- The upper and lower bounds of the Internal Range (Internal High, Internal Low).
- The calculated RSI and MFI values (RSI, MFI).
These values are accessible for viewing through TradingView's Data Window and also via the Status Line when hovering over the relevant candle. This enables more precise quantitative analysis of range levels and momentum.
6. Comprehensive Breakout Alerts
The "Range Breakout " indicator provides 12 distinct alert conditions for breakouts, allowing you to select the required level of confirmation for each alert. All alerts are triggered only upon a fully confirmed bar close (barstate.isconfirmed) to minimize false signals and ensure reliability.
All breakout alerts are configured to detect a Crossover/Crossunder of the levels, meaning a specific event where the price moves from one side of the range to the other.
External Range Breakout UP
- Close: Price closes above the External Range.
- Real Body: The entire "real body" of the candle (min of open/close prices) closes above the External Range.
- Full Candle: The entire candle (the lowest point of the candle) closes above the External Range.
External Range Breakout DOWN
- Close: Price closes below the External Range.
- Real Body: The entire "real body" of the candle (max of open/close prices) closes below the External Range.
- Full Candle: The entire candle (the highest point of the candle) closes below the External Range.
Internal Range Breakout UP
- Close: Price closes above the Internal Range.
- Real Body: The "real body" of the candle closes above the Internal Range.
- Full Candle: The entire candle closes above the Internal Range.
Internal Range Breakout DOWN
- Close: Price closes below the Internal Range.
- Real Body: The "real body" of the candle closes below the Internal Range.
- Full Candle: The entire candle closes below the Internal Range.
7. Ideal Use Cases
This indicator is ideal for traders who:
Want to clearly identify and monitor price consolidation zones.
Seek confirmation for breakout strategies across various timeframes.
Require reliable and automated alerts for potential entry or exit points based on range expansion.
8. Complementary Indicator
For even more comprehensive market analysis, we highly recommend using this indicator in conjunction with Market Structure Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS .
This powerful complementary indicator automatically and accurately identifies significant support and resistance levels by locating high and low pivot points, as well as key Pre-Market High/Low levels. Its strength lies in its dynamic adaptability to any timeframe and asset, providing precise and relevant real-time levels while maintaining a clean chart. It also identifies Break of Structure (BoS) to signal potential trend changes or continuations.
Using both indicators together provides a robust framework for identifying defined ranges and potential trend shifts, enabling more informed trading decisions.

The Essa System V1.5The Essa System V1.5
Overview
The Essa System is a comprehensive trading strategy and backtesting tool designed for traders who use market structure and Fibonacci retracements. It automatically identifies significant trading ranges, calculates key retracement levels, and then backtests a complete trading strategy based on entries at these levels.
This is more than just an indicator; it's a full suite of analytical tools designed to help you develop, test, and analyze a complete trading plan directly on your chart.
How It Works
The system's logic is based on a classic price action concept:
Range Detection: First, it automatically identifies a significant trading range by finding the highest high and lowest low based on pivot points over a user-defined lookback period.
Fibonacci Analysis: Once the range direction (bullish or bearish) is established, the script calculates and displays key Fibonacci retracement levels (50%, 61.8%, 70.5%, and 78.6%).
Trade Execution: The system then looks for historical and live trading opportunities, entering a trade when the price pulls back to one of the enabled Fibonacci levels. All trades are managed with a predefined Stop Loss and Take Profit in pips.
Key Features
Automatic Range & Fibonacci Analysis: Automatically draws the primary trading range and key Fib levels, updating as market structure evolves.
Historical Backtesting: Plots all historical trade entries based on the strategy rules, allowing for a complete performance review over the chosen chart history.
Detailed Trade Visuals: Displays active trades on the chart with clear lines and boxes for entry, stop loss, and take profit zones.
Advanced Session Filtering: Allows you to isolate trades to specific market sessions (London, New York, Asia) with timezone support and daily trade limits.
Built-in Risk Management: A cornerstone of the system. It automatically calculates the required position size for each trade based on your specified Account Size, Risk Percentage, and Stop Loss.
Comprehensive Performance Tables: The script includes two powerful analytical tables:
Trade Helper Table: Shows the status of live or potential upcoming trades, including entry/SL/TP prices and the calculated position size.
History Table: Logs all recent trades and calculates key statistics like Profit Factor, Win Rate, and the overall PnL impact on your account balance.
Customizable Strategy: Fine-tune every aspect of the strategy with inputs for the lookback period, SL/TP in pips, which Fib levels are tradable, and a cooldown timer to prevent over-trading.
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Navigate to the settings and, under "Account Settings," configure your Account Size and Risk Per Trade (%). This is essential for the PnL and position sizing calculations to be meaningful.
Under "Session Filter Settings," adjust the sessions you wish to trade.
Analyze the historical trades and the performance tables to understand the strategy's behaviour on your chosen asset and timeframe.
Disclaimer: This is a tool for strategy analysis and backtesting. It is not financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use proper risk management.

Simple Sessions & LevelsWhat this indicator does:
This script marks out two essential types of price levels for intraday and swing traders:
The high and low of a customizable 15-minute opening range after the market/session open.
The previous day’s high, midpoint (“halfback”), and low.
How it works:
The script lets you set the session start time (hour and minute) to match your market.
It then calculates the high and low of the first 15 minutes after the session opens and plots those as solid lines.
It also plots the prior day’s high, halfback (midpoint), and low on your chart for easy reference.
Each line and each label can be toggled on or off independently in the settings for maximum customization.
Colors for each level are also fully customizable.
How to use it:
Add the script to your chart.
Set the session start hour and minute to match the open of the market or instrument you trade.
Choose which levels and labels you want displayed by using the toggles in the settings.
The indicator will automatically draw the session range and prior day levels for you.
Use these lines as reference for key support, resistance, and potential trade entry/exit points.
What makes it unique and useful:
This tool combines a flexible session opening range with classic daily reference levels in one package. You have complete control over which levels and labels are shown, making it adaptable for any trading style. It’s especially useful for day traders who want to quickly identify volatility windows and the most important price levels from the previous session.
Opening Range Breakout (15 mins Range)Take the guesswork out of your trading with the Opening Range Breakout Pro script. This tool automatically marks the high and low of the first 15 minutes of the NYSE session, then highlights the first candle to break out above or below this range—removing ambiguity from your trade entries.
The opening range is one of the most powerful concepts in day trading. By identifying the price range set during the market’s first minutes, you gain a clear framework for your trades. When price breaks out above the range, it often signals a strong bullish move; a break below signals bearish momentum. This script visually marks these moments, so you can react quickly and confidently.
Why use Opening Range Breakout Pro?
• Defined Entry and Exit Points: The script gives you clear, objective breakout levels—no more guessing when to enter a trade.
• Removes Emotional Trading: With visual cues for breakouts, you can follow a systematic approach and avoid hesitation or FOMO.
• Backtested, Time-Tested Strategy: The opening range breakout has been used by professional traders for decades to capture early trends and maximize profit potential.
• High Reward Potential: By capitalizing on the volatility and momentum of the opening session, traders often catch the best moves of the day.
• Easy to Use: Just add to your chart—no configuration needed. The script works on any NYSE stock, on a 5-minute chart.
How it works:
• Draws the opening 15-minute high and low as orange lines.
• Labels the range prices for quick reference.
• Marks the first candle to close above the range with an orange ▲, and the first to close below with an orange ▼.
Take control of your trading day, remove uncertainty, and trade with confidence—just like the pros.

Dynamic Range Filter with Trend Candlesticks (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Dynamic Range Filter with Trend Candlesticks (Zeiierman) is a volatility-responsive trend engine that adapts in real-time to market structure, offering a clean and intelligent visualization of directional bias. It blends dynamic range calculation with customizable smoothing techniques and layered trend confirmation logic, making it ideal for traders who rely on clear trend direction, structural range analysis, and momentum-based candlestick signals.
By measuring scaled volatility over configurable lengths and applying advanced moving average techniques, this indicator filters out market noise while preserving true directional intent. Complementing this, a dual-trend system (range-based and candle-based) enhances clarity and responsiveness, particularly during shifting market conditions.
█ How It Works
⚪ Scaled Volatility Band Calculation
At the core lies a volatility engine that constructs adaptive range bands around price using smoothed high/low calculations. The bands are dynamically adjusted using:
High/Low Smoothing – Applies a moving average to the raw high and low data before calculating the range.
Scaled Range Volatility – A 2.618 multiplier scales the distance between smoothed highs and lows, forming a responsive volatility envelope.
Band Multiplier – Controls how wide the upper/lower range bands extend from the mean.
This filtering process minimizes false signals and highlights only structurally meaningful moves.
⚪ Multi-Type Smoothing Engine
Users can choose from a wide array of smoothing algorithms for trend construction, including:
HMA (default), SMA, EMA, RMA
KAMA – Adapts to market volatility using efficiency ratios.
VIDYA – Momentum-sensitive smoothing using CMO logic.
FRAMA – Dynamically adjusts to fractal dimension in price.
Super Smoother – Ideal for eliminating aliasing in range signals.
This provides the trader with fine-tuned control over reactivity vs. smoothness.
⚪ Trend Detection (Dual Engine)
The indicator includes two independent trend tracking systems:
Main Trend Filter – Based on adaptive volatility band shifts.
Candle Trend Filter – A second-tier confirmation using smoothed candle data, ideal for directional candles and confirmation entries.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Confirmation
Use the Trend Line and colored candlesticks for high-probability entries in the trend direction. The more trend layers that align, the higher the confidence.
⚪ Reversal Zones
When the price reaches the outer bands or fails to break them, look for candle color shifts or a crossover in the range to anticipate possible reversals or consolidations.
█ Settings
Scaled Volatility Length – Controls the lookback used to stabilize the base volatility band.
MA Type & Length – Choose and fine-tune the smoothing method (HMA, EMA, KAMA, etc.)
High/Low Smoother – Pre-smoothing for structural high/low banding.
Band Multiplier – Adjusts the width of the dynamic bands.
Trend Length (Candles) – Length used for candle-based trend confirmation.

Range Progress TrackerRANGE PROGRESS TRACKER(RPT)
PURPOSE
This indicator helps traders visually and statistically understand how much of the typical price range (measured by ATR) has already been covered in the current period (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly). It includes key features to assist in trend exhaustion analysis, reversal spotting, and smart alerting.
CORE LOGIC
The indicator calculates the current range of the selected time frame (e.g., Daily), which is:
Current Range = High - Low
This is then compared to the ATR (Average True Range) of the same time frame, which represents the average price movement range over a defined period (default is 14).
The comparison is expressed as a percentage, calculated with this formula:
Range % = (Current Range / ATR) × 100
This percentage shows how much of the “average expected move” has already occurred.
WHY IT MATTERS
When the current range approaches or exceeds 100% of ATR, it means the price has already moved as much as it typically does in a full session.
This indicates a lower probability of continuing the trend with a new high or low, especially when the price is already near the session's high or low.
This setup can signal:
A possible consolidation phase
A reversal in trend
The market entering a corrective phase
SMART ALERTS
The indicator can alert you when:
A new high is made after the range percentage exceeds your set threshold.
A new low is made after the range percentage exceeds your set threshold.
You can adjust the Range % Alert Threshold in the settings to tailor it to your trading style.
Range Filter Strategy with ATR TP/SLHow This Strategy Works:
Range Filter:
Calculates a smoothed average (SMA) of price
Creates upper and lower bands based on standard deviation
When price crosses above upper band, it signals a potential uptrend
When price crosses below lower band, it signals a potential downtrend
ATR-Based Risk Management:
Uses Average True Range (ATR) to set dynamic take profit and stop loss levels
Take profit is set at entry price + (ATR × multiplier) for long positions
Stop loss is set at entry price - (ATR × multiplier) for long positions
The opposite applies for short positions
Input Parameters:
Adjustable range filter length and multiplier
Customizable ATR length and TP/SL multipliers
All parameters can be optimized in TradingView's strategy tester
You can adjust the input parameters to fit your trading style and the specific market you're trading. The ATR-based exits help adapt to current market volatility.
Daily Price RangeThe indicator is designed to analyze an instrument’s volatility based on daily extremes (High-Low) and to compare the current day’s range with the typical (median) range over a selected period. This helps traders assess how much of the "usual" daily movement has already occurred and how much may still be possible during the trading day.

How to use this indicator:
The ADR and ATR can be used to provide information about average price moves to help set targets, stop losses, entries and exits based on the potential average moves.
Example: If the "% of ADR" is reading 100%, then 100% of the asset's average price range has been covered, suggesting that an additional move beyond the range has a lower probability.
Example: "ADR % of Price" provides potential price movement in percentage which can be used to asses R/R for asset.
Example: ADR (D) reading is 100% at market close but ATR (D) is at 70% at close. This suggests that there is a potential move of 30% in Pre/Post market as suggested by averages.
Notes:
These indicators are available as oscillators to place under your chart through trading view but this indicator will place them on the chart in numerical only format.

Compression Patterns (w/ Trend + Proximity Filter)🧠 Description:
This indicator identifies high-probability price compression patterns within trending environments — a setup prized by experienced swing and day traders alike. It combines the classic NR4, NR7, 2-Bar NR, 3-Bar NR, and Inside Day formations with a powerful trend filter and proximity logic to deliver clear, focused signals.
🔍 What's Inside:
▪️ Compression Patterns
The core of this tool lies in the logic of price compression. These patterns signal the market taking a breath — volatility contracts, volume dries up, and price coils like a spring.
When this happens in the right context, the next move is often explosive.
NR4 / NR7: Narrowest range in 4 or 7 bars — excellent for spotting the quiet before the storm.
2-Bar NR / 3-Bar NR: These identify the tightest consecutive 2 or 3-day ranges over the past 20 days — contextually rare and powerful.
Inside Day: A simple but highly effective consolidation pattern, especially when it clusters around key moving averages.
▪️ Trend Filter (EMA Stack)
You could say this is where most indicators fall apart — no context.
This one doesn’t make that mistake.
Signals only fire when the 10 EMA > 20 EMA > 50 EMA, and price is above the 20 EMA. That’s a strong, established uptrend — the only environment where breakouts are statistically favourable.
Why?
Because trend following works.
It may not give you fixed daily returns, but it’s the only strategy with theoretically infinite profit potential. You risk little, trade less, and position yourself for rare but massive moves. That’s the edge.
▪️ Proximity Filter (1 ATR to EMA)
We’ve added another layer of discipline. Signals only fire when price is:
Within 1 ATR of the 10 EMA (if price is above it), or
Within 1 ATR of the 20 EMA (if price is below the 10 EMA)
This ensures you’re not chasing. You’re waiting for tight, controlled pullbacks into dynamic support — exactly where institutions add size, not exit.
⚙️ Fully Customisable:
Toggle visibility of each pattern
Custom colours and transparency for label & background
Adjustable ATR length and multiplier
Change label text if needed (useful for translations or tweaks)
🎯 Ideal Use Case:
Swing trading off the daily chart
Day trading with VWAP/MACD filters (in alternate versions)
Supplementing price action strategies
🔚 Final Word:
This isn’t an “everything scanner.”
It’s a discerning sniper scope for traders who wait patiently for clean trends, tight consolidations, and perfect proximity — then strike.
Trading Sessions [BigBeluga]
This indicator brings Smart Money Concept (ICT) session logic to life by plotting key global trading sessions with volume and delta analytics. It not only highlights session ranges but also tracks their midpoints — which often act as intraday support/resistance levels.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Visual session boxes: Plots boxes for Tokyo, London, New York, and Sydney sessions based on user-defined UTC+0 time ranges.
Volume & delta metrics: Displays total volume and delta volume (buy–sell difference) within each session.
Mid, High & Low Range Extension: Once a session ends, the high, low, and midpoint levels automatically extend — ideal for detecting SR zones.
Session labels: Each box includes a label with session name, time, volume, and delta for quick reference.
Custom session control: Enable or disable sessions individually and configure start/end times.
Clean aesthetics: Transparent shaded boxes with subtle borders make it easy to overlay without clutter.
Sessions Dashboard: Shows the time range of each session and tells you whether the session is currently active.
🔵 USAGE
Enable the sessions you want to monitor (e.g., New York or Tokyo) from the settings.
Use session volume and delta values to gauge the strength and direction of institutional activity.
Watch for price interaction with the extended range — it often acts as dynamic support/resistance after the session ends.
Overlay it with liquidity tools or breaker blocks for intraday strategy alignment.
🔵 EXAMPLES
Extended Future Range acted as resistance/support.
Delta value helped confirm bullish pressure during New York open.
Multiple sessions helped identify kill zone overlaps and high-volume turns.

Grid Level Visualizer v1.0Overview
This indicator draws a customizable grid of horizontal price levels directly on your chart. It's designed to help traders visualize potential support and resistance zones, manage grid trading strategies, or simply divide a price range into equal segments. The script offers interactive controls, extensive customization options, and alert functionality.
Key Features:
Customizable Grid: Draws a grid based on user-defined Upper Price Bound and Lower Price Bound.
Interactive Bounds: Easily adjust the Upper and Lower bounds by dragging the corresponding lines directly on the chart (click the line first to select, then drag). Bounds can also be set numerically in the settings.
Adjustable Levels: Specify the total number of horizontal lines in the grid (Number of Grid Levels), including bounds.
Custom Styling: Independently configure the color, width, and style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) for the boundary lines and the intermediate grid lines.
Price Labels: Optional display of price values for each grid level, positioned on the right side near the current bar.
Labels for boundary levels automatically inherit the boundary line colors.
Adjustable horizontal offset (Price Label Offset (X)) for labels.
Customizable text size (Text Size) and color (Price Text Color (Mid)) for mid-levels.
Grid Start Time: Define a specific date and time (Grid Start Time) from which the grid lines should start appearing on the chart (defaults to the beginning of the current month).
Line Extension: Grid lines automatically extend to the right margin of the chart.
Alert Condition: Provides a "Grid Level Cross" condition for creating custom alerts when price crosses any active grid level.
Alert Toggle: An option (Enable Alert Condition?) in the settings to enable or disable the availability of the "Grid Level Cross" condition when creating alerts.
Real-time Calculation: Uses calc_on_every_tick=true for responsive alert checking against the current price.
How to Use:
Add the "Improved Grid Level Visualizer" indicator to your chart.
Set Bounds: Adjust the Upper Price Bound and Lower Price Bound lines by clicking and dragging them on the chart, or set precise values in the indicator settings.
Set Levels: Define the Number of Grid Levels you need in the settings.
Set Start Time: Use the Grid Start Time input to control when the grid visualization begins.
Customize: Configure colors, line styles, label visibility, etc., in the settings panel.
Set Alerts (Optional): Follow the steps below.
Notes:
The grid levels are calculated purely based on the mathematical division of the specified price range. They do not automatically adapt to market structure unless you manually adjust the bounds.
When changing the Grid Start Time after the indicator has been running, you might need to refresh the chart or remove/re-add the indicator for the visual starting point to update correctly.
Smart % Levels📈 Smart % Levels – Visualize Significant Percentage Moves
What it does:
This indicator plots horizontal levels based on a percentage change from the previous day's close (or open, if selected). It allows traders to visualize price movements relative to meaningful thresholds like ±1%, ±2%, etc.
What makes it different:
Unlike other level indicators, Smart % Levels only displays the relevant levels based on current price action. This avoids clutter by showing only the levels that are being approached or crossed by the current price. It's a clean and dynamic way to visualize key price zones for intraday analysis.
How it works:
- Select between using the previous day's Close or Open as the reference
- Choose the percentage spacing between levels (e.g., 1%, 0.5%, etc.)
- Enable optional labels to see the exact percentage of each level
- Automatically filters levels to only show those between yesterday's price and today's current price
- Includes customization for colors, line styles, widths, and opacity
Best for:
Day traders and scalpers who want a quick, clean view of how far the current price has moved from yesterday’s reference, without being overwhelmed by unnecessary lines.
Extra notes:
- The levels are recalculated each day at the market open
- All graphics reset at the start of each session to maintain clarity
- This script avoids repainting by only plotting levels relative to available historical data (no lookahead)

Visual Structure Mapping with configurable line color and width.
Perfect for identifying key structure shifts
Mapping trending vs consolidating phases
Building your own internal order flow frameworks
Inputs:
Swing Period: Defines how many bars to the left/right are used to detect pivot highs/lows.
Line Customization: Adjust style, width and color for visual clarity.
Connection Parameters: Select which swing types to connect, and control how far back and forward to look when making the connection.
Connection Examples:
HH to LH - Mapping potential bearish transition. Often signals weakening bullish momentum and a potential bearish shift in structure.
LL to HL - Mapping potential bullish transition. Suggests buyers stepping in earlier and potential bullish momentum building.
HL to LH (or LH to HL) - these can indicate sideways structure — often in consolidating or compressing price action depending on custom steps.
HH to HH (or LL to LL) - Connecting successive HHs or LLs visualizes higher highs in uptrends or lower lows in downtrends — a classic trend-following perspective.
HL to HL (or LH to LH) - Connecting successive HLs (or LHs) can highlight the “internal” structure between impulse legs, often defining minor trend channels or short-term ranges within the larger trend.
Son Model ICT [TradingFinder] HTF DOL H1 + Sweep M15 + FVG M1🔵 Introduction
The ICT Son Model setup is a precise trading strategy based on market structure and liquidity, implemented across multiple timeframes. This setup first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe to validate the trend. After confirmation, the price forms a new swing in the 5-minute timeframe, absorbing liquidity.
Once this level is broken, traders typically drop to the 30-second (30s) timeframe and enter trades based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). However, since access to the 30-second timeframe is not available to most traders, we take the entry signal directly from the 5-minute timeframe, using the same liquidity zones and confirmed breakouts to execute trades. This approach simplifies execution and makes the strategy accessible to all traders.
This model operates in two setups :
Bullish ICT Son Model and Bearish ICT Son Model. In the bullish setup, liquidity is first accumulated at the lows of the 1-hour timeframe, and after confirming a market structure shift, a long position is initiated. Conversely, in the bearish setup, liquidity is first drawn from higher levels, and upon confirmation of a bearish trend, a short position is executed.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The ICT Son Model setup is designed around liquidity analysis and market structure shifts and can be applied in both bullish and bearish market conditions. The strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe.
After this shift, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity. When this level is broken in the 5-minute timeframe, the trader enters based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). While the ideal entry is in the 30-second (30s) timeframe, due to accessibility constraints, we take entry signals directly from the 5-minute timeframe.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In the Bullish ICT Son Model, the 1-hour timeframe first identifies liquidity at the market lows, where price sweeps this level to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bullish shift.
After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a higher level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a long position, placing the stop-loss below the FVG.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In the Bearish ICT Son Model, liquidity at higher market levels is identified in the 1-hour timeframe, where price sweeps these levels to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bearish trend.
After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a lower level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a short position, placing the stop-loss above the FVG.
🔵 Settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar.
MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar.
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Son Model setup is a structured and precise method for trade execution based on liquidity analysis and market structure shifts. This strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour timeframe and then confirms a trend shift using the 5-minute timeframe.
Trade entries are executed based on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), which highlight optimal entry points. By applying this model, traders can leverage existing market liquidity to enter high-probability trades. The bullish setup activates when liquidity is swept from market lows and a market structure shift confirms an upward trend, whereas the bearish setup is used when liquidity is drawn from market highs, confirming a downtrend.
This approach enables traders to identify high-probability trade setups with greater precision compared to many other strategies. Additionally, since access to the 30-second timeframe is limited, the strategy remains fully functional in the 5-minute timeframe, making it more practical and accessible for a wider range of traders.
Zerg range filter credit to Kivanc turkish pinecoder for base indicator i reworked with chatgpt and some common sense
this indicator similar to the ADX but i think its better visually to keep you out of market conditions that are unfavorable.
i made original indicator to work in a 0-100 enviroment (before it was a zero middle line oscillator) and added background coloring that has a lower and higher threshold setting. i also added a smoothing moving average. this will trigger threshold levels (not the core oscillator)
above higher level would indicate trending market conditions and its purple. these are the areas where you might want to buy low period moving average bounces like 10 or 21 ema
lower band will paint indicator background blue and its cold, meaning range bound trade ideas are likely play out better. selling resistance and buying horizontal supports for example.
you are encourage to play with lookback period and change thresholds until you find something that works for your trading.
on the picture above it illustrates how i intended its usage.
it also shows divergences which was not intended but also a function.
you can also observe as the oscillator likes to coil up into a tight range (horizontal or a wedge formation) and when these break their trendlines explosive moves are incoming usually.
if you have a trading system and can generate a lot of signals but want to filter out some loser trades this could be the indicator you were looking for.
i hope this will be inline with community guidelines. my other publishing got removed unfortunately
Opening Range Breakout (ORB)This is an Opening Range Break indicator. Best if used on a 5 minute chart. It plots the opening 30 minutes high and low of a ticker. (meaning mostly for stocks, options, etfs) and then it alerts a buy signal upon break of opening high and a sell signal upon break of opening low. This is a day trading type of indicator and there is a new opening range everyday.
