Liquidity Raids and Sweeps by TexmoonbeamLiquidity is a vital concept in trading. It gives us an indication of where buy / sell orders are in the market, and the direction price is likely to move once this liquidity has been taken.
The purpose of this indicator is to show you when and where there has been a 'raid' or 'sweep' of this liquidity, meaning a reversal might occur.
The indicator does this by looking for candle wicks, that go beyond a previous pivot high or low.
Settings:
Timeframe – This settings changes the timeframe that the indicator looks for raids/sweeps. Higher timeframes generally mean stronger moves.
Left bars – the number of bars gap higher/lower to the left of a pivot low/high. A higher number means the high or low was formed from a stronger move.
Right bars – the number of bars gap higher/lower to the right of a pivot low/high. A higher number means the high or low started a stronger move.
Max Gap – the maximum number of candles between a raid or sweep. Reduce this number on higher time frames if there are memory errors.
Min Gap – the minimum number of candles between a raid or sweep.
Alerts Wait For Close – If ticked, this means an alert will not be triggered by the current candle wick, overlapping a previous, until the close of that candle. Unticked you will be alerted as soon as the current candle crosses a previous high/low, though it might close far beyond that point and not actually turn out to be a raid/sweep.
Buy Side/Sell Side – line style and colour preferences for buy and sell side.
Strategy:
As seen in the example chart, the raid/sweep of liquidity, where only a wick reaches beyond a previous high or low, can be followed by a reversal of direction, often to seek other liquidity targets. This indicator could provide an opportunity to enter a trade at this point and the alert feature means you will be able to set up custom alerts on multiple charts or timeframes.
You should use other confluence and a lower time frame confirmation after a raid/sweep, to identify your entry, stop loss and targets. Familiarity with liquidity and smart money concepts are recommended.
Whale Flow PRO [Institutional Grade Trend System]Whale Flow PRO is an advanced market analysis algorithm designed to align retail traders with institutional liquidity cycles. Unlike standard lagging indicators, Whale Flow focuses on detecting the underlying phase of the market: Liquidity Building (Consolidation) vs. Institutional Expansion (Whale Runs).
This tool was engineered to solve the biggest problem in trading: getting trapped in choppy markets ("Whipsaws") and missing the true explosive moves.
⚙️ How It Works
The algorithm utilizes a proprietary volatility-adjusted volume model combined with dynamic price-action pivots. By analyzing the rate of change relative to historical volatility compression, the script identifies key "Pivot Lines" where liquidity is likely to flow.
Trend Filtering: It automatically filters out noise by calculating a custom "Consolidation Index". When the market is in a building phase, signals are suppressed to protect capital.
Whale Runs: When volatility expands beyond a specific threshold in the direction of the dominant trend, the system triggers a "Whale Run" mode, signaling high-probability entry zones.
📊 Key Features
Smart Dashboard (HUD): A real-time professional panel displaying the current Trend Direction, Market Phase (Run vs. Build), and active Pivot Levels.
Dynamic Heatmap: A visual ribbon at the bottom of the chart that tracks the historical strength of the trend flow.
Context-Aware Coloring:
Neon Green: Confirmed Bullish Flow (Whale Run).
Neon Red: Confirmed Bearish Flow (Dump).
Silver/Gray: Consolidation Zone (Safety Mode - No Trades).
Protection System: The "Liquidity Build" filter prevents entries during sideways movement, significantly increasing the win rate of the signals.

Binary Options 1 Minute Signals [TradingFinder] 1 Min Strategy🔵 Introduction
At first sight, price movement in binary options appears random, but behind every move lies a clear logic of liquidity and market imbalance. The market is always driven by the hunt for liquidity and the continuous rebalancing that takes place around Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). These zones are where institutional activity is concentrated and where Smart Money creates the most significant reactions.
When price approaches a key liquidity zone, it often performs a Liquidity Sweep to capture orders resting around previous highs or lows. This move usually presents itself as a False Breakout. Price briefly breaks a level to trigger stop losses and collect liquidity, then quickly reverses direction. Understanding this false breakout behavior is essential for identifying high probability reversals in binary options trading.
After the liquidity sweep, price typically retraces into a Fair Value Gap or Order Block, where the market seeks balance and new orders are introduced. This interaction between liquidity, imbalance, and institutional order flow forms the core logic of every Smart Money trading model.
By focusing on Liquidity Sweeps, False Breakouts, and the structure of FVGs and OBs, traders can read the true intention behind price movements. What seems like random volatility becomes a structured cycle of liquidity collection and reaction, offering clear opportunities for precision-based binary entries.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
This indicator works within the Smart Money framework and focuses on the connection between Liquidity Sweep, False Breakout, Fair Value Gap (FVG) and Order Block (OB).
It is created to help traders identify the moment when the market finishes collecting liquidity and begins to show signs of reversal.
The indicator studies how price behaves around zones where liquidity is concentrated, such as previous highs and lows or areas with visible inefficiency. When a clear reaction forms and a valid candle pattern confirms the shift in direction, the indicator generates a signal that represents the activity of Smart Money.
This tool does not respond to random volatility or noise. It waits for structure, liquidity and confirmation to align together before providing an entry. As a result, every signal has a logical base related to institutional order flow rather than ordinary price fluctuations. This approach allows traders to focus only on the movements that reflect true liquidity behavior.
🟣 Long Setup
A bullish setup takes place when the market moves downward and reaches a sell-side liquidity zone located below previous swing lows. In this area, price performs a Liquidity Sweep by moving under key levels to trigger stop losses and capture liquidity from trapped sellers.
This movement usually appears as a False Breakout because the market breaks below a level for a short moment and then quickly moves back inside the range.
Around this zone, a bullish Order Block or Fair Value Gap (FVG) often exists, showing where institutional demand is active.
When the indicator detects the presence of liquidity collection together with a valid bullish confirmation candle near an OB or FVG, it creates a Call signal.
This marks the moment when Smart Money is shifting from selling pressure to accumulation, and a strong bullish move often follows. For binary entries, the best opportunity usually comes immediately after the confirmation candle closes.
The reaction tends to happen quickly because the liquidity grab has completed and new institutional buying pressure is entering the market. This type of setup often provides a clean and precise entry with a high probability of success.
🟣 Short Setup
A bearish setup happens when the market rises and enters a buy-side liquidity area above previous highs. Here, the market performs a Liquidity Sweep to trigger stop losses placed above those highs and to absorb liquidity from trapped buyers.
This pattern forms what traders recognize as a False Breakout because the price only breaks the level temporarily before reversing in the opposite direction. A bearish Order Block or Fair Value Gap (FVG) often appears around this zone, showing where institutional selling interest exists.
Once the liquidity sweep completes and a bearish confirmation candle closes, the indicator produces a Put signal that reflects the shift from buying to selling pressure by Smart Money.
This moment often leads to a fast downward reaction as the market rebalances and fills the nearby inefficiency.
The most effective entry for binary trading is right after the confirmation candle closes, when the false breakout and liquidity collection are both completed. The price usually reacts sharply as the market transitions from liquidity hunting to a new directional move. This setup represents a structured view of how liquidity drives market cycles and how Smart Money creates precise reversals through controlled imbalance and reaction.
🔵 Settings
Time Frame : Defines the timeframe used for analysis. If left blank, the indicator automatically uses the chart’s current timeframe.
Swing Period : Determines how many candles are used to identify structural turning points such as swing highs and swing lows. Higher values increase accuracy but reduce the number of signals.
Signal Type : Specifies the type of signal generated by the indicator. The option All shows every signal, Main Signal displays only the primary one, and Alternative Signal produces a secondary signal that appears one candle after the main signal for additional confirmation.
Candle Pattern : Enables candle pattern logic for reversal confirmation. When active, the indicator issues a signal only when a valid candle formation confirms the market reaction.
Candle LookBack Check : Verifies that the last few candles move in the opposite direction of the signal to be generated. This condition acts as a confirmation filter, ensuring that the signal appears only after a clear counter-move in price.
Last Candle Direction : Considers the direction of the most recent candle in the analysis. It helps determine whether the final candle moves with or against the current trend.
Last Candle Shadow Ratio : Sets the ratio between the last candle’s wick and body to refine confirmation accuracy. Higher values require longer wicks, indicating stronger rejection and a more reliable reversal pattern.
🔵 Conclusion
Trading with Smart Money logic means understanding how liquidity moves through the market.
Each Liquidity Sweep, False Breakout, Fair Value Gap (FVG) and Order Block (OB) reflects the process of collecting and redistributing orders.
This indicator captures that sequence and turns it into precise, structured signals for binary entries. When liquidity is absorbed and a candle confirmation appears, the market reveals its true direction.
At that moment, traders can act with confidence, following institutional flow instead of reacting to random price moves.
Success with this system comes from patience, confirmation, and a clear reading of liquidity behavior, the core principles behind every Smart Money reversal.
SMC Structures and Multi-Timeframe FVG PYSMC Structures and Multi-Timeframe FVG Indicator
Tip: For optimal performance, adjust the number of FVGs displayed per timeframe in the settings. On high-performance devices, up to 8 FVGs per timeframe can be used without issues. If you experience slowdowns, reduce to 3 or 4 FVGs per timeframe. If the chart flashes, disable indicators one by one to identify conflicts, or try using the TradingView Mobile or Windows App for a smoother experience.
Overview
This Pine Script indicator enhances market analysis by integrating Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with Fair Value Gaps (FVG) across multiple timeframes. It identifies trend continuations (Break of Structure, BOS) and trend reversals (Change of Character, CHoCH) while highlighting liquidity zones through FVG detection. The indicator includes eight customizable Moving Average (MA) curve templates, disabled by default, to complement SMC and FVG analysis. Its originality lies in combining multi-timeframe FVG detection with SMC structure analysis, providing traders with a cohesive tool to visualize price action patterns and liquidity zones efficiently.
Features and Functionality
1. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
The indicator detects and displays bullish, bearish, and mitigated FVGs, representing liquidity zones where price inefficiencies occur. These gaps are dynamically updated based on price action:
Bullish FVG: Displayed in green when unmitigated, indicating potential upward liquidity zones.
Bearish FVG: Displayed in red when unmitigated, signaling potential downward liquidity zones.
Mitigated FVG: Shown in gray once the gap is partially filled by price action.
Fully Mitigated FVG: Automatically removed from the chart when the gap is fully filled, reducing visual clutter.
Users can customize the number of historical FVGs displayed via the settings, allowing focus on recent liquidity zones for targeted analysis.
2. SMC Structures
The indicator identifies key SMC price action patterns:
Break of Structure (BOS): Marked with gray lines, indicating trend continuation when price breaks a significant high or low.
Change of Character (CHoCH): Highlighted with yellow lines, signaling potential trend reversals when price fails to maintain the current structure.
High/Low Values: Blue lines denote the highest high and lowest low of the current structure, providing reference points for market context.
3. Multi-Timeframe FVG Analysis
A standout feature is the ability to analyze FVGs across multiple timeframes simultaneously. This allows traders to align higher-timeframe liquidity zones with lower-timeframe entries, improving trade precision. The indicator fetches FVG data from user-selected timeframes, displaying them cohesively on the chart.
4. Moving Average (MA) Templates
The indicator includes eight customizable MA curve templates in the Settings > Template section, disabled by default. These templates allow users to overlay MAs (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA) to complement SMC and FVG analysis. Each template is pre-configured with different periods and types, enabling quick adaptation to various trading strategies, such as trend confirmation or dynamic support/resistance.
How It Works
The script processes price action to detect FVGs by analyzing three-candle patterns where a gap forms between the high/low of the first and third candles. Multi-timeframe data is retrieved using Pine Script’s request.security() function, ensuring accurate FVG plotting across user-defined timeframes. BOS and CHoCH are identified by tracking swing highs and lows, with logic to differentiate trend continuation from reversals. The MA templates are computed using standard Pine Script TA functions, with user inputs controlling visibility and parameters.
How to Use
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart.
Configure Settings:
FVG Settings: Adjust the number of historical FVGs to display (default: 10). Enable/disable specific FVG types (bullish, bearish, mitigated).
Timeframe Selection: Choose up to three timeframes for FVG analysis (e.g., 1H, 4H, 1D) to align with your trading strategy.
Structure Settings: Toggle BOS (gray lines) and CHoCH (yellow lines) visibility. Adjust sensitivity for structure detection if needed.
MA Templates: Enable MA curves via the Template section. Select from eight pre-configured MA types and periods to suit your analysis.
Interpret Signals:
Use green/red FVGs for potential entry points targeting liquidity zones.
Monitor gray lines (BOS) for trend continuation and yellow lines (CHoCH) for reversal signals.
Align multi-timeframe FVGs with BOS/CHoCH for high-probability setups.
Optionally, use MA curves for trend confirmation or dynamic levels.
Clean Chart Usage: The indicator is designed to work standalone. Ensure no conflicting scripts are applied unless explicitly needed for your strategy.
Why This Indicator Is Unique
Unlike standalone FVG or SMC indicators, this script combines both concepts with multi-timeframe analysis, offering a comprehensive view of market structure and liquidity. The addition of customizable MA templates enhances flexibility, while the dynamic removal of mitigated FVGs keeps the chart clean. This mashup is purposeful, as it integrates complementary tools to streamline decision-making for traders using SMC strategies.

Inversion Fair Value Gap Signals [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script is a custom signal tool called Inversion Fair Value Gap Signals (IFVG) , designed to detect, track, and visualize fair value gaps (FVGs) and their inversions directly on price charts. It identifies bullish and bearish imbalances, monitors when these zones are mitigated or rejected, and extends them until resolution or expiration. What makes this script original is the inclusion of inversion logic—when a gap is filled, the area flips into an opposite "inversion fair value gap," creating potential reversal or continuation zones that give traders additional context beyond classic FVG analysis.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The script builds on the Smart Money Concepts (SMC) principle of fair value gaps, where inefficiencies form when price moves too quickly in one direction. Detection requires a three-bar sequence: a strong up or down move that leaves untraded price between bar highs and lows. To refine reliability, the script adds an ATR-based size filter and prevents overlap between zones. Once created, gaps are tracked in arrays until mitigation (price closing back into the gap), expiration, or transformation into an inversion zone. Inversions act as polarity flips, where bullish gaps become bearish resistance and bearish gaps become bullish support. Lower-timeframe volume data is also displayed inside zones to highlight whether buying or selling pressure dominated during gap creation.
🟠 FEATURES
Automatic detection of bullish and bearish FVGs with ATR-based thresholding.
Inversion logic: mitigated gaps flip into opposite-colored IFVG zones.
Volume text overlay inside each zone showing up vs down volume.
Visual markers (△/▽ for FVG, ▲/▼ for IFVG) when price exits a zone without mitigation.
🟠 USAGE
Apply the indicator to any chart and enable/disable bullish or bearish FVG detection depending on your focus. Use the colored gap zones as areas of interest: bullish gaps suggest possible continuation to the upside until mitigated, while bearish gaps suggest continuation down. When a gap flips into an inversion zone, treat it as potential support/resistance—bullish IFVGs below price may act as demand, while bearish IFVGs above price may act as supply. Watch the embedded up/down volume data to gauge the strength of participants during gap formation. Use the △/▽ and ▲/▼ markers to spot when price rejects gaps or inversions without filling them, which can indicate strong trending momentum. For practical use, combine alerts with your trade plan to track when new gaps form, when old ones are resolved, or when key zones flip into inversions, helping you align entries, targets, or reversals with institutional order flow logic.
High Probability Order Blocks [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script detects and visualizes high-probability order blocks by combining a volatility-based z-score trigger with a statistical survival model inspired by Kaplan-Meier estimation. It builds and manages bullish and bearish order blocks dynamically on the chart, displays live survival probabilities per block, and plots optional rejection signals. What makes this tool unique is its use of historical mitigation behavior to estimate and plot how likely each zone is to persist, offering traders a probabilistic perspective on order block strength—something rarely seen in retail indicators.
🟠 CONCEPTS
Order blocks are regions of strong institutional interest, often marked by large imbalances between buying and selling. This script identifies those areas using z-score thresholds on directional distance (up or down candles), detecting statistically significant moves that signal potential smart money footprints. A bullish block is drawn when a strong up-move (zUp > 4) follows a down candle, and vice versa for bearish blocks. Over time, each block is evaluated: if price “mitigates” it (i.e., closes cleanly past the opposite side and confirmed with a 1 bar delay), it’s considered resolved and logged. These resolved blocks then inform a Kaplan-Meier-like survival curve, estimating the likelihood that future blocks of a given age will remain unbroken. The indicator then draws a probability curve for each side (bull/bear), updating it in real time.
🟠 FEATURES
Live label inside each block showing survival probability or “N.E.D.” if insufficient data.
Kaplan-Meier survival curves drawn directly on the chart to show estimated strength decay.
Rejection markers (▲ ▼) if price bounces cleanly off an active order block.
Alerts for zone creation and rejection signals, supporting rule-based trading workflows.
🟠 USAGE
Read the label inside each block for Age | Survival% (or N.E.D. if there aren’t enough samples yet); higher survival % suggests blocks of that age have historically lasted longer.
Use the right-side survival curves to gauge how probability decays with age for bull vs bear blocks, and align entries with the side showing stronger survival at current age.
Treat ▲ (bullish rejection) and ▼ (bearish rejection) as optional confluence when price tests a boundary and fails to break.
Turn on alerts for “Bullish Zone Created,” “Bearish Zone Created,” and rejection signals so you don’t need to watch constantly.
If your chart gets crowded, enable Prevent Overlap ; tune Max Box Age to your timeframe; and adjust KM Training Window / Minimum Samples to trade off responsiveness vs stability.
ICTProTools | ICT Insight - Time & Price Zones🚀 INTRODUCTION
The Time and Price Zones indicator builds upon the foundational concepts of ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts (SMC). These methodologies analyze the behavior of institutional traders (known as "smart money") by focusing on liquidity, key price levels, and market timing.
Liquidity refers to areas with high concentrations of pending orders (stops, take-profits, entries) in the market. Large institutions efficiently need to execute their massive orders without causing excessive slippage. To achieve this, they strategically create and exploit liquidity pools by driving the price toward areas where retail traders cluster their positions.
Then, through "liquidity grabs" or "stop hunts,” institutions accumulate or distribute positions at optimal prices . This strategy allows them to fill large orders with minimal market impact, typically clearing out retail traders' positions before the price reverses.
This indicator helps traders apply these principles by merging time-based and price-based analysis tools for better market understanding. By combining high-impact sessions like Kill Zones with pivotal price markers such as Previous Highs and Lows, traders can see where institutional activity intersects with liquidity pools, improving their decision-making.
This powerful combination allows users to monitor market dynamics in real time, helping them spot sentiment shifts and identify crucial turning points more effectively.
💎 FEATURES
Kill Zones
Kill Zones are critical periods of the trading day characterized by heightened institutional activity, resulting in increased liquidity and significant price movements. By recognizing these zones, you can strategically focus your efforts on the most advantageous moments for trading.
The Asian Session , which runs from 5 PM to 1 AM New York time, serves as an essential liquidity provider before the onset of more volatile trading periods. This session is intricately linked to the Smart Money Tool (SMT - See below), as the highs and lows established during this period provide foundational liquidity levels. You can set alerts when these levels are breached , allowing you to stay informed without constant chart monitoring and make timely trading decisions.
Transitioning into the London Kill Zone from 2 to 5 AM New York time marks the beginning of the European session, often associated with increased volatility. Following this, the New York Kill Zone , occurring from 7 to 10 AM , sees significant overlap between the London and New York sessions, where liquidity flows intensify and frequently correlate with notable price reversals. Finally, the London Close from 10 to 12 PM signifies the end of the European session, often ending the day with a retracement in the daily range.
Thanks to the timezone you can select relative to a region, Kill Zones will automatically adapt to time changes throughout the year and between different brokers , ensuring accurate Kill Zone timings without manual adjustments.
Incorporating our advanced Kill Zones indicator into your trading strategy gives you unparalleled insights and enhanced functionality. With integrated alerts for breaches of key levels, you can stay informed and ready to act without the need for constant chart monitoring, allowing you to focus on executing your trading strategies effectively.
We can see on this chart the identified Kill Zones during the trading day on EURUSD , including the Asian Session in gray, which tends to consolidate slightly (creating liquidity), the London Kill Zone in orange, which tends to move fast, often taking Asian quickly, the New York Kill Zone in green, with always a lot of movements, and the London Close in blue, seeming rather to retrace.
The midline indicates the 50% mark of the session, serving as a reference point for potential price reactions. Additionally, the highs and lows established during the Asian Session are linked to the Smart Money Tool (SMT) and can trigger alerts when breached. Here, you could have received an alert when Asian Low (marked AL) and Asian High (marked AH) were swept.
Previous & Open Levels
Previous and Open levels are key elements in ICT methodology, showing important price points from major timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly). These levels (Previous High, Low, Open, and their separators) help traders understand price dynamics and anticipate market shifts.
The Previous levels connect directly to the Smart Money Tool (SMT - See below) as they provide foundational liquidity levels. In ICT methodology, previous are levels where many traders place their Stop Loss, thus creating liquidity. This helps you understand potential market reactions and whether prices will likely continue their trend or reverse.
You’ll be instantly notified whenever the price interacts with any of these Previous levels. This means you can stay informed about critical market movements without the need to monitor your charts constantly.
The indicator also displays Opening prices and includes separators for daily, weekly, and monthly levels, offering a clear market overview.
Open levels can act as simplified indicators of Premium and Discount Zones. To be above the opening price can be considered as the Premium Zone , where the market offers higher prices, typically suitable for selling opportunities. Conversely, to be below this price can be considered as the Discount Zone , where prices are relatively lower, offering potential buying opportunities.
These visual elements help you identify crucial market zones that reflect both past price action and current market dynamics.
Our indicator offers you the exclusive ability to integrate the True Day Range, as described by ICT. Based on institutional logic, this concept defines the trading day starting at 00:00 New York time. You can adapt this flexible feature to match your trading style and analysis needs.
By incorporating our advanced Previous levels indicator into your trading arsenal, you gain powerful insights and enhanced functionality.
The chart above displays key Previous and open levels on EURUSD , including the Month, Week, and Day lines, along with separators for enhanced clarity. All levels are based on the True Day Range Mode. The notes indicate significant price points, highlighting how the price interacts with these important levels, which helps us to understand it…
We can start with the biggest liquidity, the Previous Month. In this example, we can see the PMH, and the price seems to have used this level as a reversal point. The PM levels are indeed significant liquidity zones. We can observe the creation of wicks that interact with this level, signaling a liquidity grab.
Following this, the price drops quickly before rebounding, creating a liquidity range, that will probably be liquidated then… This is why it rises again to form what is now the PDH (Previous Day High), using it as liquidity (inducement) while using the PWH (Previous Week High) as a rebound level. The PWH is indeed a High Resistance (HR) area since there is only a few liquidity at this point thanks to the liquidity grab. The price has no reason to move higher.
Looking ahead, we can forecast that the price may continue its decline, potentially targeting lower liquidity levels. There is likely additional liquidity beneath the current range, particularly near the PDL (Previous Day Low) and PWL (Previous Week Low).
Additionally, we can note that at this point, the price was above the D.O.P (Daily Open) and W.O.P (Weekly Open), areas where selling would be more favorable. The price reacts significantly around these levels, creating large wicks, demonstrating their importance.
SMT Dashboard (Smart Money Tool)
The Smart Money Tool (SMT) is a powerful concept within the ICT methodology that enables you to compare various assets based on liquidity uptake from significant price levels.
By utilizing the SMT, you can analyze any asset , whether it’s a currency pair, stock, cryptocurrency, or other financial instruments. The dashboard helps you identify the strongest and weakest assets by analyzing their interactions with critical liquidity levels and identifying divergences , including those related to the Previous Month, Previous Week, Previous Day, and Asian Session Highs and Lows. By doing so, he identifies the most bullish symbol. It will therefore tend to rise more easily, or at least fall less, than the other one.
The SMT includes alert functionality that notifies you whenever a new SMT is created or has changed , allowing you to stay informed about which asset is currently the strongest. This means you can react promptly to market changes without constantly monitoring your charts.
Additionally, since the SMT relies on the Previous levels, it is influenced by the selected mode, whether based on traditional Previous levels or the True Day Range . This flexibility ensures that you are using the most relevant information available for your trading decisions. Asian High and Asian Low levels are also calculated according to the schedules configured in the Kill Zones section.
In summary, the Smart Money Tool displays the strongest and weakest assets based on liquidity uptake, providing you with clear information on which asset to prioritize, so you can maximize your potential profits. By incorporating this concept into your approach, you align your decisions with prevailing market dynamics, offering you unparalleled insights and features tailored to enhance your trading strategy.
This chart displays the Smart Money Tool (SMT) dashboard on the GBPUSD symbol, which compares the liquidity uptake for EURUSD and GBPUSD pairs. The indicator shows that both Previous Month's and Week's High and Low were taken for both pairs. However, the Asian High (AH) has been breached on GBPUSD but not on EURUSD, while the Asian Low (AL) has been taken by EURUSD. As a result, GBPUSD is identified as the stronger asset, indicating that traders should focus on buying opportunities with GBPUSD rather than EURUSD. This analysis helps traders prioritize the best symbol for their strategies based on the most relevant liquidity divergences.

Understanding the Features:
Chapter 1: Entries Enhancements
In this chapter, we delve into strategies to refine trading entries, focusing on the multi-timeframe analysis of extreme or decisional order blocks in the High Time Frame timeframe as a key point of interest. We highlight the significance of transitioning to the Low Time Frame chart for observing pivotal shifts in market behavior. By examining these concepts, traders can gain deeper insights into market dynamics and make more informed entries decisions at critical junctures.
Practical Example:
We had an Order Block Extreme on the 1-hour timeframe, and currently, we are on the recommended chart for trade entry, which is the 5-minute timeframe. We are patiently waiting to observe a 5-minute ChoCh in the market to enter a buying position since it's an OB Extreme Demand on the 1-hour timeframe. Here, it's crucial and important to focus on the entry timeframe rather than checking what's happening in the higher timeframe. The indicator facilitates this task as it provides us with real-time perspective and visibility of everything happening in the higher timeframe.
Chapter 2: Inducements HTF
It is important and useful to be aware of the various liquidity points across the different timeframes we use; sometimes, a reliable entry point in the Lower Time Frame (LTF) may be surrounded by inducements. Consequently, this point becomes unreliable, and prior to the arrival of this functionality, such anomalies could not be detected, especially when focusing on the market in the LTF. From now on, there will be no more such issues.
Practical Example:
Suppose we identify an Order Block Extreme on the 5M timeframe, indicating a potential entry level. However, when we switch to the 5M timeframe to look for an entry point, we observe an accumulation of inducements around this Order Block coming from a higher timeframe, whether it's M15 or H1. This suggests a potential weakness in the entry point and significant market liquidity, which will act as a trap zone. Before the introduction of this feature, we might have missed this crucial observation, but now we can detect these anomalies and adjust our strategy accordingly.
The only practical way to see theses confluences is to use this Indicator, see the example below
Chapter 03: High/Low – Bos - ChoCh Markings HTF

This innovation ensures that critical market movements and sentiment across various timeframes are visible and actionable from a single, focused LTF perspective, enhancing decision-making and strategic planning in trading activities.
Understanding High/Low Markings in HTF Analysis
High/Low Markings in High Time Frame (HTF) analysis mark the market's extremities within a given period, pinpointing potential areas for reversals or continuation and delineating crucial support and resistance levels. These markings are not arbitrary but represent significant market responses, serving as essential indicators for traders and analysts to gauge market momentum and sentiment.
The Role of HTF in Market Analysis
HTF analysis extends a comprehensive view over market movements, distinguishing between ephemeral fluctuations and substantial trend shifts. By scrutinizing these high and low points across wider time frames, analysts can unravel the underlying market momentum, enabling more strategic, informed trading decisions.
Identifying High/Low Markings
Identifying these crucial points entails detailed chart analysis over extended durations—daily, weekly, or monthly. The search focuses on the utmost highs and lows within these periods, which are more than mere points on a chart. They are significant market levels that have historically elicited robust market reactions, serving as key indicators for future market behavior.

Order Blocks Indicator [TradingFinder] Lightning|CHOCH |OB | BOS🔵 Introduction
In "Price Action," an "Order Block" is essentially an area on the price chart where significant players such as institutional traders have executed their moves by placing noteworthy orders. These points often indicate areas where price either attempts to break through (resistance) or returns when it reaches there (support).
Therefore, when discussing the identification of order blocks, we typically refer to finding points where the price has stalled for a while and has accumulated strength before making a significant move in one direction.
Essentially, order blocks assist traders in understanding where large players with "smart money" have likely placed their bulk orders in the market. Traders use these order blocks as part of their overall analysis to identify probable levels where price may change direction.
This version of the order block indicator is designed for traders, adding many indicators to their charts. The minimal design helps minimize disruptions to user focus.
🔵 Identification of Order Blocks
To identify order blocks, first, a "Level Break" must occur. To identify a "Demand Zone," a "High Level Break" is required, and to identify a "Supply Zone," a "Low Level Break" is needed.
Demand Zone :
Supply Zone :
🔵 "Change of Character" or "Market Shift Structure"
"ChoCh" or "MSS" is the "Break Level" that is contrary to the previous trend. For example, if a "Bearish Level" is established in the market and consecutive "Low Levels" are being broken, the price turns upward, breaking a "High Level." This break is called "ChoCh" or "MSS."
🔵 "Break of Structure"
"Break of Structure," or "BoS" for short, is the "Break Level" in the direction of the current trend. For example, if a "Bullish Level" is established in the market, when the price breaks a "High Level," a "BoS" has occurred.
🔵 Features
🟣 Major Level
This feature helps you easily identify major levels. These levels form when the price breaks another major level.
🟣 Refine Order Block
The "Refinement" feature allows you to adjust the width of the order block based on your strategy. There are two modes, "Aggressive" and "Defensive," in Order Block Refine. The difference between "Aggressive" and "Defensive" lies in the width of the order block. For "Risk Averse" traders, the "Defensive" mode is suitable because it provides smaller stop losses and larger reward-to-risk ratios. For "Risk Taker" traders, the "Aggressive" mode is more suitable. These traders prefer to enter trades at higher prices and this mode, where the width of the order block is greater, is more suitable for this group of individuals.
🔵 How to Use
After adding the indicator to your chart, you will see a visual similar to the image below. Green order blocks are "Demand Zones" and red order blocks are "Supply Zones." The midpoint of the order blocks also indicates 50% of it.
Refine Order Block is defaulted to On and refines the order blocks. If you want the order blocks to remain original, you should set it to Off.
Refine is defaulted to "Defensive" mode. If you want it to be in "Aggressive" mode, you should change its mode through Refine Type.
Displaying "Major Levels" is turned off by default and to display them, you should set "Show High Level" and "Show Low Level" to "Yes." You can use these lines to identify liquidity or determine stop loss and take profit levels.
Liquidity Finder🔵 Introduction
The concept of "liquidity pool" or simply "liquidity" in technical analysis price action refers to areas on the price chart where stop losses accumulate, and the market, by reaching those areas and collecting liquidity (Stop Hunt), provides the necessary energy to move the price. This concept is prominent in the "ICT" and "Smart Money" styles. Imagine, as depicted below, the price is at a support level. The general trader mentality is that there is "demand" for the asset at this price level, and this demand will outweigh "supply" as before. So, it is likely that the price will increase. As a result, they start buying and place their stop loss below the support area.
Stop Hunt areas are essentially traders' "stop loss" levels. These are the liquidity that institutional and large traders need to fill their orders. Consequently, they penetrate the price below support areas or above resistance areas to touch their stop loss and fill their orders, and then the price trend reverses.
Cash zones are generally located under "Swings Low" and above "Swings High." More specifically, they can be categorized as support levels or resistance levels, above Double Top and Triple Top patterns, below Double Bottom and Triple Bottom patterns, above Bearish Trend lines, and below Bullish Trend lines.
Double Top and Triple Top :
Double Bottom and Triple Bottom :
Bullish Trend line and Bearish Trend line :
🔵 How to Use
To optimally use this indicator, you can adjust the settings according to the symbol, time frame, and your needs. These settings include the "sensitivity" of the "liquidity finder" function and the swing periods related to static and dynamic liquidity lines.
"Statics Liquidity Line Sensitivity" is a number between 0 and 0.4. Increasing this number decreases the sensitivity of the "Statics Liquidity Line Detection" function and increases the number of lines identified. The default value is 0.3.
"Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity" is a number between 0.4 and 1.95. Increasing this number increases the sensitivity of the "Dynamics Liquidity Line Detection" function and decreases the number of lines identified. The default value is 1.
"Statics Period Pivot" is set to 8 by default. By changing this number, you can specify the period for the static liquidity line pivots.
"Dynamics Period Pivot" is set to 3 by default. By changing this number, you can specify the period for the dynamic liquidity line pivots.
🔵 Settings
Access to adjust the inputs of Static Dynamic Liquidity Line Sensitivity, Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity, Statics Period Pivot, and Dynamics Period Pivot is possible from this section.
Additionally, you can enable or disable liquidity lines as needed using the buttons for "Show Statics High Liquidity Line," "Show Statics Low Liquidity Line," "Show Dynamics High Liquidity Line," and "Show Dynamics Low Liquidity Line."
SMC Fake Zones + InsideBarThis indicator is useful for whom trade with "Smart Money Concept (SMC)" strategy.
It helps SMD traders to identify fake or weak zones in the chart, So they can avoid taking position in this zones.
This indicator marks "Asia session" as well as "London and New York's Lunch Time (one hour before London and NY session starts)" zones.
It also marks Inside Bar candles which SMC trades consider as order flow. You can mark every Inside Bar or only those with opposite color via setting options.
*** As we know in SMC rules
1- Supply and Demand zones in "Asia session and Lunch Times" are fake zones for SMC trading and price will engulf them in most of times.
2- "Asia session high and low" has huge liquidity and usually price sweep that in London session.
This indicator will helps traders to visually identify those Fake zones and Asia session liquidity.
* You can change session times based on your time zone in settings.
* You can set options to show all Inside Bars or only with Opposite color in settings.
RSI Analytic Volume Matrix [RAVM] Overview
RSI Analytic Volume Matrix is an overlay indicator that turns classic RSI into a multi-layered market-reading engine. Instead of treating RSI 30 and 70 as simple buy/sell lines, RAVM combines RSI geometry (angle and acceleration), statistical volume analysis, and a 5×5 VSA-inspired matrix to describe what is really happening inside each candle.
The script is designed as an educational and analytical tool. It does not generate trading signals. Instead, it helps you read the market context, understand where the pressure is coming from (buyers vs. sellers), and see how price, momentum, and volume interact in real time.
Concept & Philosophy
RAVM is built around a hierarchical logic and a few core ideas:
• Hierarchical State Machine: First, RSI defines a context (where we are in the 0–100 range). Then the geometric engine evaluates the angle-of-turn of RSI using a Z-Score. Only after a meaningful geometric event is detected does the system promote a bar to a potential setup (warning vs. confirmed).
• Geometric Primacy: The angle and acceleration of RSI (RSI geometry) are more important than the raw RSI level itself. RAVM uses a geometric veto: if the geometric trigger is not confirmed, the confidence score is capped below 50%, even if volume looks interesting.
• RSI Beyond 30 and 70: Being above 70 or below 30 is not treated as an automatic overbought/oversold signal. RAVM treats those zones as contextual factors that contribute only a partial portion of the final score, alongside geometry, total volume expansion, buy/sell balance, and delta power.
• Volume Decomposition: Volume is decomposed into total, buy-side, sell-side, and delta components. Each of these is normalized with a Z-Score over a shared statistical window, so RSI geometry and volume live in the same statistical context.
• Educational Scoring Pipeline: RAVM builds a 0–100 "Quantum Score" for each detected setup. The score expresses how strong the story is across four dimensions: geometry (RSI angle-of-turn), total volume expansion, which side is driving that volume (buyers vs. sellers), and the power of delta. The score is designed for learning and weighting, not for mechanical trade entries.
• VSA Matrix Engine: A 5×5 matrix combines momentum states and volume dynamics. Each cell corresponds to an interpreted VSA-style scenario (Absorption, Distribution, No Demand, Stopping Volume, Strong Reversal, etc.), shown both as text and as a heatmap dashboard on the chart.
How RAVM Works
1. RSI Context & Geometry
RAVM starts with a classic RSI, but it does not stop at simple level checks. It computes the velocity and acceleration of RSI and normalizes them via a Z-Score to produce an Angle-of-Turn metric (Z-AoT). This Z-AoT is then mapped into a 0–1 intensity value called MSI (Momentum Shift Intensity).
The script monitors both classic RSI zones (around 30 and 70) and geometric triggers. Entering the lower or upper zone is treated as a contextual event only. A setup becomes "confirmed" when a significant geometric turn is detected (based on Z-AoT thresholds). Otherwise, the bar is at most a warning.
2. Volume & Statistical Engine
The volume engine can work in two modes: a geometric approximation (based on candle structure) or a more precise intrabar mode using up/down volume requests. In both cases, RAVM builds a volume packet consisting of:
• Total volume
• Buy-side volume
• Sell-side volume
• Delta (buy – sell)
Each of these series is normalized using a Z-Score over the same statistical window that is used for RSI geometry. This allows RAVM to answer questions such as: Is total volume exceptional on this bar? Is the expansion mostly coming from buyers or from sellers? Is delta unusually strong or weak compared to recent history?
3. Scoring System (Quantum Score)
For each bar where a setup is active, RAVM computes a 0–100 score intended as an educational confidence measure. The scoring pipeline follows this sequence:
A. RSI Geometry (MSI): Measures the strength of the RSI angle-of-turn via Z-AoT. This has geometric primacy over simple level checks.
B. RSI Zone Context: Being below 30 or above 70 contributes only a partial bonus to the score, reflecting the idea that these zones are context, not automatic signals. Mildly supportive zones (e.g., RSI below 50 for bullish contexts) can also contribute with lower weight.
C. Total Volume Expansion: A normalized Volume Power term expresses how exceptional the total volume is relative to its recent distribution. If there is no meaningful volume expansion, the score remains modest even if RSI geometry looks interesting.
D. Which Side Is Driving the Volume: RAVM then checks whether the expansion is primarily on the buy side or the sell side, using Z-Score statistics for buy and sell volume separately. This stage does not yet rely on delta as a power metric; it simply answers the question: "Is this expansion mostly driven by buyers, sellers, or both?"
E. Delta as Final Power: Only at the final stage does the script bring in delta and its Z-Score as a measure of how one-sided the pressure really is. A strong negative delta during a bullish context, for example, can highlight absorption, while a strong positive delta against a bearish context can highlight distribution or a buying climax.
If a setup is not geometrically confirmed (for example, a simple entry into RSI 30/70 without a strong geometric turn), RAVM caps the final score below 50%. This "Geometric Veto" enforces the idea that RSI geometry must confirm before a scenario can be considered high-confidence.
4. Overlay UI & Smart Labels
RAVM is an overlay indicator: all information is drawn directly on the price chart, not in a separate pane. When a setup is active, a smart label is attached to the bar, together with a vertical connector line. Each label shows:
• Direction of the setup (bullish or bearish)
• Trigger type (classic OS/OB vs. geometric/hidden)
• Status (warning vs. confirmed)
• Quantum Score as a percentage
Confirmed setups use stronger colors and solid connectors, while warnings use softer colors and dotted connectors. The script also manages label placement to avoid overlap, keeping the chart clean and readable.
In addition to labels, a dashboard table is drawn on the chart. It displays the currently active matrix scenario, the dominant bias, a short textual interpretation, the full 5×5 heatmap, and summary metrics such as RSI, MSI, and Volume Power.
RSI Is Not Just 30 and 70
One of the central design decisions in RAVM is to treat RSI 30 and 70 as context, not as fixed buy/sell buttons. Many traders mechanically assume that RSI below 30 means "buy" and RSI above 70 means "sell". RAVM explicitly rejects this simplification.
Instead, the script asks a series of deeper questions: How sharp is the angle-of-turn of RSI right now? Is total volume expanding or contracting? Is that expansion dominated by buyers or sellers? Is delta confirming the move, or is there a hidden absorption or distribution taking place?
In the scoring logic, being in a lower or upper RSI zone contributes only part of the final score. Geometry, volume expansion, the buy/sell split, and delta power all have to align before a high-confidence scenario emerges. This makes RAVM much closer to a structured market-reading tool than a classic overbought/oversold indicator.
Matrix User Manual – Reading the 5×5 Grid
The heart of RAVM is its 5×5 matrix, where the vertical axis represents momentum states (M1–M5) and the horizontal axis represents volume dynamics (V1–V5). Each cell in this grid corresponds to a VSA-style scenario. The dashboard highlights the currently active cell and prints a textual description so you can read the story at a glance.
1. Confirmation Scenarios
These scenarios occur when momentum direction and volume expansion are aligned:
• Bullish Confirmation / Strong Reversal: Momentum is shifting strongly upward (often from a depressed RSI context), and expanded volume is driven mainly by buyers. Often seen as a strong bullish reversal or continuation signal from a VSA perspective.
• Bearish Confirmation / Strong Drop: Momentum is turning decisively downward, and expanded volume is driven mainly by sellers. This maps to strong bearish continuation or sharp reversal patterns.
2. Absorption & Stopping Volume
• Absorption: Total volume expands, but the dominant flow is opposite to the recent price move or the geometric bias. For example, heavy selling volume while the geometric context is bullish. This can indicate smart money quietly absorbing orders from the crowd.
• Stopping Volume: Exceptionally high volume appears near the end of an extended move, while momentum begins to decelerate. Price may still print new extremes, but the effort vs. result relationship signals potential exhaustion and the possibility of a turn.
3. Distribution & Buying Climax
• Distribution: Heavy buying volume appears within a bearish or topping context. Rather than healthy accumulation, this often represents larger players offloading inventory to late buyers. The matrix will typically flag this as a bearish-leaning scenario despite strong upside prints.
• Buying Climax: A surge of buy-side volume near the end of a strong uptrend, with momentum starting to weaken. From a VSA point of view, this is often the last push where retail aggressively buys what smart money is selling.
4. No Demand & No Supply
• No Demand: Price attempts to rise but does so on low, non-expansive volume. The market is not interested in following the move, and the lack of participation often precedes weakness or sideways action.
• No Supply: Price tries to push lower on thin volume. Selling pressure is limited, and the lack of supply can precede stabilization or recovery if buyers step back in.
5. Trend Exhaustion
• Uptrend Exhaustion: Momentum remains nominally bullish, but the quality of volume deteriorates (e.g., more effort, less net result). The matrix marks this as an uptrend losing internal strength, often after a series of aggressive moves.
• Downtrend Exhaustion: Similar logic in the opposite direction: strong prior downtrend, but increasingly inefficient downside progress relative to the volume invested. This can precede accumulation or a relief rally.
6. Effort vs. Result Scenarios
• Bullish Effort, Little Result: Buyers invest notable volume, but price progress is limited. This may reveal hidden selling into strength or a lack of follow-through from the broader market.
• Bearish Effort, Little Result: Sellers push volume, but price does not decline proportionally. This can indicate absorption of selling pressure and potential underlying demand.
7. Neutral, Churn & Thin Markets
• Neutral / Thin Market: Momentum and volume both remain muted. RAVM marks these as neutral cells where aggressive decision-making is usually less attractive and observing the broader structure is more important.
• High Volume Churn / Volatility: Both sides are active with high volume but limited directional progress. This can correspond to battle zones, local ranges, or high volatility rotations where the main message is conflict rather than clear trend.
Inputs & Options
RAVM includes several input groups to adapt the tool to your preferences:
• Localization: Multiple language options for all labels and dashboard text (e.g., English, Farsi, Turkish, Russian).
• RSI Core Settings: RSI length, source, and upper/lower contextual zones (typically around 30 and 70).
• Geometric Engine: Z-AoT sigma thresholds, confirmation ratios, and normalization window multiplier. These control how sensitive the script is to RSI angle-of-turn events.
• Volume Engine: Choice between geometric approximation and intrabar up/down volume, Z-Score thresholds for volume expansion, and related parameters.
• Visual Interface: Toggles for smart labels, dashboard table, font sizes, dashboard position, and color themes for bullish, bearish, and warning states.

Dynamic Support and Resistance with Trend LinesDynamic Support and Resistance with Trend Lines (DSRTL)
1. Introduction & Methodology
The DSRTL indicator is designed to provide a multidimensional analysis of market structure. Unlike traditional tools that rely solely on price pivots, this script combines Static Volume-based Zones with Dynamic Trend Lines to evaluate the price's position relative to critical market components.
The S/R Identification Technique
Instead of standard pivot points, DSRTL utilizes Volume Analysis to highlight areas of significant trader participation:
- Strategy A:
Matrix Climax: Identifies candles within the lookback period that are near price extremes (Highs/Lows) and coincide with significant buying or selling volume.
- Strategy B:
Volume Extremes: Detects candles with the absolute highest buy/sell volumes within the selected lookback window, creating extreme volume-based S/R zones.
- Result:
This creates Support/Resistance (S/R) zones that are validated by actual market activity, not just price geometry.
Dynamic Trend Lines
To complement the static zones, the indicator employs two adaptive channel methods:
- Pivot Span: Connects recent significant pivots for a fast, reactive trend corridor.
- 5-Point Channel: Segments the lookback period into 5 parts to perform a linear regression analysis, creating a stable and statistically significant channel.
2. Volume Calculation Methodology
Accurate S/R detection requires distinguishing Buy Volume from Sell Volume. DSRTL offers two calculation modes:
- Geometry (Source File): Estimates buy/sell volume based on the Close price's position relative to the High/Low of the candle.
Note: This is an approximation that works on all plan types as it does not require intrabar data.
- Intrabar (Precise): Analyzes historical lower-timeframe data (e.g., 15S) to calculate intrabar-based volume deltas with higher precision compared to the geometric method.
Note: This offers superior accuracy. It requires access to historical intrabar data (depending on your plan limits). For the best analytical results, use this mode if available.
3. The Smart Matrix Engine (3D Analysis)
The core of DSRTL is its dashboard, powered by the "Smart Matrix Engine." This engine evaluates the current price in a multi-layer market structure context (Static Volume Zones + Dynamic Channels + Volume Metrics).:
A. S-State (Static): Where is the price relative to the Volume S/R zones?
B. D-State (Dynamic): Where is the price relative to the Trend Channels?
How to read the Matrix Map:
The dashboard displays a 5x5 grid representing 25 possible market scenarios.
- Rows (S1-S5): Represent the Static State (S1=Breakout, S3=Mid-Range, S5=Breakdown).
- Columns (D1-D5): Represent the Dynamic State (D1=Overextended Up, D3=Neutral, D5=Overextended Down).
- Active Cell: Marked with a dot, indicating the specific intersection of price action and market structure.

Access to this specific data depth depends entirely on your platform's subscription capabilities. If your plan does not support this level of historical intrabar data, the Precise mode may have limited coverage. In that case, you should switch to "Geometry" mode for a fully populated view.

Screener (SSA) [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script is a multi-symbol screener that serves as a dashboard companion to the "Smart Signals Assistant (SSA)" indicator. Its purpose is to monitor the entire suite of SSA components—from the core signals to all confluence tools—across a customizable watchlist of up to 18 assets. By displaying the real-time status of each indicator in a single table, it allows traders to get a bird's-eye view of the market, quickly identify assets with strong trend confluence, and filter for high-probability setups without needing to switch charts.
The screener is designed to mirror the modularity of the main SSA indicator, allowing you to enable or disable components in the table to match your preferred trading dashboard.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The screener is built directly on the analytical framework of the Smart Signals Assistant, applying its complex, proprietary algorithms to each symbol in your watchlist and summarizing the results. The combination of these different analytical concepts is what gives the screener its utility, as it helps traders find opportunities where multiple, distinct strategies align.
Each column in the table represents a core trading concept:
Smart Signals: This is the primary signal engine, designed to identify potential entry points. It operates in different modes to capture both long-term swings and faster scalping opportunities.
Fair Value Trail (FVT): This component provides a dynamic, volatility-adjusted baseline for the trend. It acts as a form of dynamic support or resistance, helping to confirm the validity of a trend shown by the Smart Signals.
Trend Spine: This tool is designed to identify the underlying "backbone" of the market's trend. It filters out short-term price noise to provide a more stable, clear indication of the dominant market direction.
Trend Bias: This measures the strength and conviction behind a trend. It helps distinguish between a strong, accelerating move and a weak, decelerating one, adding a layer of momentum analysis.
Firmament Clouds: These are volatility-based bands that create dynamic overbought and oversold zones. They help identify when price is potentially overextended and due for a pullback or consolidation.
Trend-Range Classifier (TRC): A machine-learning model that analyzes market characteristics to classify the current environment as either "Trending" or "Ranging." This is crucial for helping traders apply the right strategy for the current conditions.
🟠 FEATURES
This screener organizes the complex data from the SSA indicator into a simple, color-coded table. Here is a breakdown of each column and its possible values:
Asset: Displays the ticker symbol for the asset being analyzed.
Smart Signals: Shows the latest signal from the core engine.
▲: A standard bullish signal has been detected.
▼: A standard bearish signal has been detected.
▲+: A strong bullish signal with higher conviction has been detected.
▼+: A strong bearish signal with higher conviction has been detected.
Fair Value Trail: Indicates the trend direction based on the volatility trail.
▲: The FVT is in a bullish trend (acting as dynamic support).
▼: The FVT is in a bearish trend (acting as dynamic resistance).
Trend Spine: Shows the direction of the core underlying trend.
▲: The underlying trend backbone is bullish.
▼: The underlying trend backbone is bearish.
Trend Bias: Measures the current momentum strength.
Strong▲: Strong and accelerating bullish momentum.
Weak▲: Bullish momentum exists but is weakening.
Strong▼: Strong and accelerating bearish momentum.
Weak▼: Bearish momentum exists but is weakening.
Firmament Clouds: Identifies overbought/oversold conditions relative to volatility.
Very Overbought / Overbought: Price is significantly extended above its recent range.
Very Oversold / Oversold: Price is significantly extended below its recent range.
Neutral: Price is trading within its normal volatility range.
Trend-Range Classifier: Displays the market state as determined by the ML model.
Trend: The market is in a trending environment, suitable for trend-following strategies.
Range: The market is in a ranging or consolidating environment, suitable for mean-reversion strategies.
Exit Signal Count: Tracks the number of take-profit signals that have occurred since the last primary Smart Signal.
0, 1, 2, 3...: A numerical count of exit signals. A higher number suggests a trend may be maturing or exhausting.
🟠 USAGE
The main purpose of the screener is to quickly identify assets where multiple components of the SSA system are in alignment, indicating a high-confluence trading opportunity.
1. Setup and Configuration:
Add the screener to your chart.
Go into the settings and populate the "Watchlist" group with the symbols you wish to monitor.
Ensure the settings for the components (Time Horizon, Signal Mode, etc.) are synchronized with the settings on your main SSA indicator for consistency.
2. Interpreting the Columns for Trading Decisions:
Start with the Big Picture (TRC): First, look at the "Trend-Range Classifier" column. If it shows "Trend," you should be looking for trend-following setups. If it shows "Range," you might avoid taking strong trend signals.
Establish Directional Bias (Spine & Bias): For trend-following, look for assets where the "Trend Spine" and "Trend Bias" agree. A "▲" in the Spine column combined with a "Strong▲" in the Bias column indicates a healthy and robust uptrend.
Time Your Entry (Smart Signals): Once you have an asset with a clear bias, watch the "Smart Signals" column for a fresh signal that aligns with that bias. A "▲+" signal appearing in an asset with a strong bullish bias across other columns is a high-confluence entry point.
Add Context (FVT & Clouds): Use the "Fair Value Trail" and "Firmament Clouds" to refine your entry. A buy signal is generally stronger if the FVT is also bullish ("▲") and the price is not in a "Very Overbought" state according to the clouds.
Manage the Trade (Exit Count): After entering a trade, keep an eye on the "Exit Signal Count." As the number increases, it serves as a warning that the trend is becoming extended and it might be time to take partial profits or tighten your stop-loss.

Market Structure ICT Screener [TradingFinder] BoS ChoCh🔵 Introduction
Market Structure is the foundation of every Smart Money and ICT based trading model. It describes how price moves through a sequence of highs and lows, forming clear phases of expansion, retracement and reversal. Understanding this structure allows traders to read institutional order flow and align their positions with the true direction of liquidity.
Two of the most critical components in Market Structure are the Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH). A BOS represents trend continuation, confirming strength within the current direction. In contrast, CHOCH also known as a Market Structure Shift (MSS) signals the first sign of a trend reversal or liquidity shift where order flow begins to change from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
Because the market is fractal, structure can exist at multiple levels known as Major (External) and Minor (Internal). Major structure defines the overall trend on higher timeframes while minor or internal structure reveals short term swings and early reversals within that larger move.
🔵 How to Use
Understanding Market Structure starts with identifying how price interacts with previous swing highs and swing lows. Every trend in the market, whether bullish or bearish, is built from a sequence of impulsive and corrective moves. Impulsive legs show strong displacement in the direction of liquidity flow, while corrective legs represent temporary pullbacks as the market rebalances before the next expansion. Recognizing these sequences is essential for reading the story of price and anticipating what may happen next.
A Break of Structure (BOS) occurs when price decisively moves beyond a previous structural point by breaking above the last high in an uptrend or falling below the last low in a downtrend. This event confirms that the current trend remains intact and that liquidity has been successfully taken from one side of the market. A BOS acts as confirmation of continuation and reflects strength within the existing directional bias.
A Change of Character (CHOCH) appears when price violates structure in the opposite direction of the prevailing trend. This is the first signal that market sentiment and order flow may be shifting. For example, during a downtrend if price breaks above a previous high, it indicates that sellers are losing control and a potential bullish reversal may be developing. In an uptrend, when price drops below a recent low, it suggests a possible bearish transition.
Because the market is fractal, structure exists across multiple layers. Major structure reflects the dominant movement visible on higher timeframes and defines the broader directional bias. Minor or internal structure represents smaller swings within that move and helps identify early transitions before they appear on the higher timeframe. When internal and external structures align, they offer a high probability signal for trend continuation or reversal.
By observing BOS and CHOCH across both internal and external structures, traders can clearly visualize when the market is expanding, contracting or preparing to shift direction. This structured understanding of price movement forms the foundation for precise trend analysis and high quality decision making in any Smart Money or ICT based trading approach.

🔵 Conclusion
Mastering Market Structure and understanding the relationship between BOS and CHOCH allows traders to see the market with greater clarity and confidence. These two elements reveal how liquidity moves through different phases of expansion and retracement and how institutional order flow shifts between accumulation and distribution.
By analyzing both internal and external structures, traders can align short term and long term perspectives and anticipate where price is most likely to react. The ability to read these structural shifts helps identify continuation points, reversals and areas where liquidity is engineered or collected.
Incorporating Market Structure into a consistent trading process transforms the way a trader views the chart. Instead of reacting to random movements, each swing, break and shift becomes part of a logical framework that reflects the true behavior of the market. Understanding BOS and CHOCH is not just a concept but a complete language of price that guides every professional decision in Smart Money and ICT based trading.

Extreme Pressure Zones Indicator (EPZ) [BullByte]Extreme Pressure Zones Indicator(EPZ)
The Extreme Pressure Zones (EPZ) Indicator is a proprietary market analysis tool designed to highlight potential overbought and oversold "pressure zones" in any financial chart. It does this by combining several unique measurements of price action and volume into a single, bounded oscillator (0–100). Unlike simple momentum or volatility indicators, EPZ captures multiple facets of market pressure: price rejection, trend momentum, supply/demand imbalance, and institutional (smart money) flow. This is not a random mashup of generic indicators; each component was chosen and weighted to reveal extreme market conditions that often precede reversals or strong continuations.
What it is?
EPZ estimates buying/selling pressure and highlights potential extreme zones with a single, bounded 0–100 oscillator built from four normalized components. Context-aware weighting adapts to volatility, trendiness, and relative volume. Visual tools include adaptive thresholds, confirmed-on-close extremes, divergence, an MTF dashboard, and optional gradient candles.
Purpose and originality (not a mashup)
Purpose: Identify when pressure is building or reaching potential extremes while filtering noise across regimes and symbols.
Originality: EPZ integrates price rejection, momentum cascade, pressure distribution, and smart money flow into one bounded scale with context-aware weighting. It is not a cosmetic mashup of public indicators.
Why a trader might use EPZ
EPZ provides a multi-dimensional gauge of market extremes that standalone indicators may miss. Traders might use it to:
Spot Reversals: When EPZ enters an "Extreme High" zone (high red), it implies selling pressure might soon dominate. This can hint at a topside reversal or at least a pause in rallies. Conversely, "Extreme Low" (green) can highlight bottom-fish opportunities. The indicator's divergence module (optional) also finds hidden bullish/bearish divergences between price and EPZ, a clue that price momentum is weakening.
Measure Momentum Shifts: Because EPZ blends momentum and volume, it reacts faster than many single metrics. A rising MPO indicates building bullish pressure, while a falling MPO shows increasing bearish pressure. Traders can use this like a refined RSI: above 50 means bullish bias, below 50 means bearish bias, but with context provided by the thresholds.
Filter Trades: In trend-following systems, one could require EPZ to be in the bullish (green) zone before taking longs, or avoid new trades when EPZ is extreme. In mean-reversion systems, one might specifically look to fade extremes flagged by EPZ.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation: The dashboard can fetch a higher timeframe EPZ value. For example, you might trade a 15-minute chart only when the 60-minute EPZ agrees on pressure direction.
Components and how they're combined
Rejection (PRV) – Captures price rejection based on candle wicks and volume (see Price Rejection Volume).
Momentum Cascade (MCD) – Blends multiple momentum periods (3,5,8,13) into a normalized momentum score.
Pressure Distribution (PDI) – Measures net buy/sell pressure by comparing volume on up vs down candles.
Smart Money Flow (SMF) – An adaptation of money flow index that emphasizes unusual volume spikes.
Each of these components produces a 0–100 value (higher means more bullish pressure). They are then weighted and averaged into the final Market Pressure Oscillator (MPO), which is smoothed and scaled. By combining these four views, EPZ stands out as a comprehensive pressure gauge – the whole is greater than the sum of parts
Context-aware weighting:
Higher volatility → more PRV weight
Trendiness up (RSI of ATR > 25) → more MCD weight
Relative volume > 1.2x → more PDI weight
SMF holds a stable weight
The weighted average is smoothed and scaled into MPO ∈ with 50 as the neutral midline.
What makes EPZ stand out
Four orthogonal inputs (price action, momentum, pressure, flow) unified in a single bounded oscillator with consistent thresholds.
Adaptive thresholds (optional) plus robust extreme detection that also triggers on crossovers, so static thresholds work reliably too.
Confirm Extremes on Bar Close (default ON): dots/arrows/labels/alerts print on closed bars to avoid repaint confusion.
Clean dashboard, divergence tools, pre-alerts, and optional on-price gradients. Visual 3D layering uses offsets for depth only,no lookahead.
Recommended markets and timeframes
Best: liquid symbols (index futures, large-cap equities, major FX, BTC/ETH).
Timeframes: 5–15m (more signals; consider higher thresholds), 1H–4H (balanced), 1D (clear regimes).
Use caution on illiquid or very low TFs where wick/volume geometry is erratic.
Logic and thresholds
MPO ∈ ; 50 = neutral. Above 50 = bullish pressure; below 50 = bearish.
Static thresholds (defaults): thrHigh = 70, thrLow = 30; warning bands 5 pts inside extremes (65/35).
Adaptive thresholds (optional):
thrHigh = min(BaseHigh + 5, mean(MPO,100) + stdev(MPO,100) × ExtremeSensitivity)
thrLow = max(BaseLow − 5, mean(MPO,100) − stdev(MPO,100) × ExtremeSensitivity)
Extreme detection
High: MPO ≥ thrHigh with peak/slope or crossover filter.
Low: MPO ≤ thrLow with trough/slope or crossover filter.
Cooldown: 5 bars (default). A new extreme will not print until the cooldown elapses, even if MPO re-enters the zone.
Confirmation
"Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" (default ON) gates extreme markers, pre-alerts, and alerts to closed bars (non-repainting).
Divergences
Pivot-based bullish/bearish divergence; tags appear only after left/right bars elapse (lookbackPivot).
MTF
HTF MPO retrieved with lookahead_off; values can update intrabar and finalize at HTF close. This is disclosed and expected.
Inputs and defaults (key ones)
Core: Sensitivity=1.0; Analysis Period=14; Smoothing=3; Adaptive Thresholds=OFF.
Extremes: Base High=70, Base Low=30; Extreme Sensitivity=1.5; Confirm Extremes on Bar Close=ON; Cooldown=5; Dot size Small/Tiny.
Visuals: Heatmap ON; 3D depth optional; Strength bars ON; Pre-alerts OFF; Divergences ON with tags ON; Gradient candles OFF; Glow ON.

Header: EPZ ANALYSIS.
Large readout: Current MPO; color reflects state (extreme, approaching, or neutral).
Status badge: "Extreme High/Low", "Approaching High/Low", "Bullish/Neutral/Bearish".
HTF cell (when MTF ON): Higher-timeframe MPO, color-coded vs extremes; updates intrabar, settles at HTF close.
Predicted (when MTF OFF): Simple MPO extrapolation using momentum/acceleration—illustrative only.
Thresholds: Current thrHigh/thrLow (static or adaptive).
Components: ASCII bars + values for PRV, MCD, PDI, SMF.
Market metrics: Volume Ratio (x) and ATR% of price.
Strength: Bar indicator of |MPO − 50| × 2.
Confidence: Heuristic gauge (100 in extremes, 70 in warnings, 50 with divergence, else |MPO − 50|). Convenience only, not probability.
How to read the oscillator
MPO Value (0–100): A reading of 50 is neutral. Values above ~55 are increasingly bullish (green), while below ~45 are increasingly bearish (red). Think of these as "market pressure".
Extreme Zones: When MPO climbs into the bright orange/red area (above the base-high line, default 70), the chart will display a dot and downward arrow marking that extreme. Traders often treat this as a sign to tighten stops or look for shorts. Similarly, a bright green dot/up-arrow appears when MPO falls below the base-low (30), hinting at a bullish setup.
Heatmap/Candles: If "Pressure Heatmap" is enabled, the background of the oscillator pane will fade green or red depending on MPO. Users can optionally color the price candles by MPO value (gradient candles) to see these extremes on the main chart.
Prediction Zone(optional): A dashed projection line extends the MPO forward by a small number of bars (prediction_bars) using current MPO momentum and acceleration. This is a heuristic extrapolation best used for short horizons (1–5 bars) to anticipate whether MPO may touch a warning or extreme zone. It is provisional and becomes less reliable with longer projection lengths — always confirm predicted moves with bar-close MPO and HTF context before acting.
Divergences: When price makes a higher high but EPZ makes a lower high (bearish divergence), the indicator can draw dotted lines and a "Bear Div" tag. The opposite (lower low price, higher EPZ) gives "Bull Div". These signals confirm waning momentum at extremes.
Zones: Warning bands near extremes; Extreme zones beyond thresholds.
Crossovers: MPO rising through 35 suggests easing downside pressure; falling through 65 suggests waning upside pressure.
Dots/arrows: Extreme markers appear on closed bars when confirmation is ON and respect the 5-bar cooldown.
Pre-alert dots (optional): Proximity cues in warning zones; also gated to bar close when confirmation is ON.
Histogram: Distance from neutral (50); highlights strengthening or weakening pressure.
Divergence tags: "Bear Div" = higher price high with lower MPO high; "Bull Div" = lower price low with higher MPO low.
Pressure Heatmap : Layered gradient background that visually highlights pressure strength across the MPO scale; adjustable intensity and optional zone overlays (warning / extreme) for quick visual scanning.
A typical reading: If the oscillator is rising from neutral towards the high zone (green→orange→red), the chart may see strong buying culminating in a stall. If it then turns down from the extreme, that peak EPZ dot signals sell pressure.
Alerts
EPZ: Extreme Context — fires on confirmed extremes (respects cooldown).
EPZ: Approaching Threshold — fires in warning zones if no extreme.
EPZ: Divergence — fires on confirmed pivot divergences.
Tip: Set alerts to "Once per bar close" to align with confirmation and avoid intrabar repaint.
Practical usage ideas
Trend continuation: In positive regimes (MPO > 50 and rising), pullbacks holding above 50 often precede continuation; mirror for bearish regimes.
Exhaustion caution: E High/E Low can mark exhaustion risk; many wait for MPO rollover or divergence to time fades or partial exits.
Adaptive thresholds: Useful on assets with shifting volatility regimes to maintain meaningful "extreme" levels.
MTF alignment: Prefer setups that agree with the HTF MPO to reduce countertrend noise.
Examples
Screenshots captured in TradingView Replay to freeze the bar at close so values don't fluctuate intrabar. These examples use default settings and are reproducible on the same bars; they are for illustration, not cherry-picking or performance claims.
Example 1 — BTCUSDT, 1h — E Low
MPO closed at 26.6 (below the 30 extreme), printing a confirmed E Low. HTF MPO is 26.6, so higher-timeframe pressure remains bearish. Components are subdued (Momentum/Pressure/Smart$ ≈ 29–37), with Vol Ratio ≈ 1.19x and ATR% ≈ 0.37%. A prior Bear Div flagged weakening impulse into the drop. With cooldown set to 5 bars, new extremes are rate-limited. Many traders wait for MPO to curl up and reclaim 35 or for a fresh Bull Div before considering countertrend ideas; if MPO cannot reclaim 35 and HTF stays weak, treat bounces cautiously. Educational illustration only.
Example 2 — ETHUSD, 30m — E High
A strong impulse pushed MPO into the extreme zone (≥ 70), printing a confirmed E High on close. Shortly after, MPO cooled to ~61.5 while a Bear Div appeared, showing momentum lag as price pushed a higher high. Volume and volatility were elevated (≈ 1.79x / 1.25%). With a 5-bar cooldown, additional extremes won't print immediately. Some treat E High as exhaustion risk—either waiting for MPO rollover under 65/50 to fade, or for a pullback that holds above 50 to re-join the trend if higher-timeframe pressure remains constructive. Educational illustration only.
Known limitations and caveats
The MPO line itself can change intrabar; extreme markers/alerts do not repaint when "Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" is ON.
HTF values settle at the close of the HTF bar.
Illiquid symbols or very low TFs can be noisy; consider higher thresholds or longer smoothing.
Prediction line (when enabled) is a visual extrapolation only.
For coders
Pine v6. MTF via request.security with lookahead_off.
Extremes include crossover triggers so static thresholds also yield E High/E Low.
Extreme markers and pre-alerts are gated by barstate.isconfirmed when confirmation is ON.
Arrays prune oldest objects to respect resource limits; defaults (80/80/60) are conservative for low TFs.
3D layering uses negative offsets purely for drawing depth (no lookahead).
Screenshot methodology:
To make labels legible and to demonstrate non-repainting behavior, the examples were captured in TradingView Replay with "Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" enabled. Replay is used only to freeze the bar at close so plots don't change intrabar. The examples use default settings, include both Extreme Low and Extreme High cases, and can be reproduced by scrolling to the same bars outside Replay. This is an educational illustration, not a performance claim.

CISD [TakingProphets]🧠 Indicator Purpose:
The "CISD - Change in State of Delivery" is a precision tool designed for traders utilizing ICT (Inner Circle Trader) conecpets. It detects critical shifts in delivery conditions after liquidity sweeps — helping you spot true smart money activity and optimal trade opportunities. This script is especially valuable for traders applying liquidity concepts, displacement recognition, and market structure shifts at both intraday and swing levels.
🌟 What Makes This Indicator Unique:
Unlike basic trend-following or scalping tools, CISD operates through a two-phase smart money logic:
Liquidity Sweep Detection (sweeping Buyside or Sellside Liquidity).
State of Delivery Change Identification (through bearish or bullish displacement after the sweep).
It intelligently tracks candle sequences and only signals a CISD event after true displacement — offering a much deeper context than ordinary indicators.
⚙️ How the Indicator Works:
Swing Point Detection: Identifies recent pivot highs/lows to map Buyside Liquidity (BSL) and Sellside Liquidity (SSL) zones.
Liquidity Sweeps: Watches for price breaches of these liquidity points to detect institutional stop hunts.
Sequence Recognition: Finds series of same-direction candles before sweeps to mark institutional accumulation/distribution.
Change of Delivery Confirmation: Confirms CISD only after significant displacement moves price against the initial candle sequence.
Visual Markings: Automatically plots CISD lines and optional labels, customizable in color, style, and size.
🎯 How to Use It:
Identify Liquidity Sweeps: Watch for CISD levels plotted after a liquidity sweep event.
Plan Entries: Look for retracements into CISD lines for high-probability entries.
Manage Risk: Use CISD levels to refine your stop-loss and profit-taking zones.
Best Application:
After stop hunts during Killzones (London Open, New York AM).
As part of the Flow State Model: identify higher timeframe PD Arrays ➔ wait for lower timeframe CISD confirmation.
🔎 Underlying Concepts:
Liquidity Pools: Highs and lows cluster stop orders, attracting institutional sweeps.
Displacement: Powerful price moves post-sweep confirm smart money involvement.
Market Structure: CISD frequently precedes major Change of Character (CHoCH) or Break of Structure (BOS) shifts.
🎨 Customization Options:
Adjustable line color, width, and style (solid, dashed, dotted).
Optional label display with customizable color and sizing.
Line extension settings to keep CISD zones visible for future reference.
✅ Recommended for:
Traders studying ICT Smart Money Concepts.
Intraday scalpers and higher timeframe swing traders.
Traders who want to improve entries around liquidity sweeps and institutional displacement moves.
