S&D Elite Pro Timing V4S&D Pro Elite — Pro Timing (PT)
A clean, signal-first Supply & Demand tool that maps institutional-style zones and prints a compact PT (Pro Timing) label only when a timing setup forms inside an active zone. Minimal UI, no clutter—just zones and timing where they matter.
Why
Some zones hold, some don’t. The trader’s job is to reduce noise. This tool is built to elevate signal-to-noise, remove distractions, and focus execution on the most structured areas of price.
What it does
Maps Supply & Demand zones across multiple timeframes with optional Quality Score (0–100) and opacity tinting.
Pro structures (Rally-Base-Rally / Drop-Base-Drop) via ATR-based impulse/continuation and a tight-base check.
PT labels (buy/sell) appear only when a Pro Timing setup forms in the zone (you choose what “inside” means: close inside / any overlap / wick only / full-body inside).
Mitigation-aware: optionally stop reacting to a zone after any touch, body touch, or a minimum penetration %.
One-switch control: Show Pro Zones master toggle, plus per-TF switches (3m…Weekly).
Alerts: PT Buy / PT Sell.
PT = Pro Timing
A compact price-timing confirmation detected when specific price-action conditions align within an S&D zone. Presented as a single, clean label—no counts or numerals.
How it works (brief)
Zone detection: impulse → base → continuation using ATR thresholds and base compactness; optional rule that the base sits inside the impulse range. Zones project right; broken zones auto-remove.
Quality Score: weighted blend of impulse strength, base tightness, and continuation body, with an inside-base bonus. You can filter out low-score zones and/or tint opacity by quality.
PT inside the zone: the PT label prints only when price meets your chosen zone-touch mode and the internal timing criteria.
Repainting
Forming Zones ON: boxes may change while the higher-TF candle is open (early heads-up by design).
Forming Zones OFF: zones and PT labels use confirmed data for the selected timeframes.
Settings (at a glance)
Pro Zone Options: Show Pro Zones (master), Forming Zones, per-TF toggles (3m…Weekly), Force Lower-TF Aggregation (1m base).
RBR/DBD Filter: Impulse min body × ATR(14), Base max body % of impulse, Base inside prior impulse (on/off), Continuation min body × ATR(14).
Quality Score: toggle, min score filter, opacity tint, adjustable weights (Impulse / Base / Continuation) + inside-base bonus.
PT × Zone Filter: Only show inside zones; trigger mode (Close inside / Overlap / Wick only / Body inside); stop after mitigation (Any touch / Body / Penetration ≥ %).
Visuals: Buy/Sell label colors + text colors; optional text inside zones (TF label, quality).
Recommended starting values
Zone Difference Scale: 1.6–2.0
Impulse min body × ATR: 1.6
Base max body %: 0.40–0.60
Continuation min body × ATR: 1.0–1.2
Min Quality Score: 60
Touch mode: Overlap (any part) for discovery; then tighten to Body inside or Wick only.
Usage tips
Start with 15m / 1h / 4h to build the backbone, add LTFs once structure is clear, and treat PT as timing confirmation inside structure—combine with trend/session/context and manage risk.

ZoneRadar by Chaitu50cZoneRadar
ZoneRadar is a tool designed to detect and visualize hidden buy or sell pressures in the market. Using a Z-Score based imbalance model, it identifies areas where buyers or sellers step in with strong momentum and highlights them as dynamic supply and demand zones.
How It Works
Z-Score Imbalance : Calculates statistical deviations in order flow (bull vs. bear pressure).
Buy & Sell Triggers: Detects when imbalances cross predefined thresholds.
Smart Zones: Marks potential buy (green) or sell (red) zones directly on your chart.
Auto-Merge & Clean: Overlapping or noisy zones are automatically merged to keep the chart clean.
History Control: Keeps only the most recent and strongest zones for focus.
Key Features
Customizable Z-Score level and lookback period
Cooldown filter to avoid over-signaling
Smart zone merging to prevent clutter
Adjustable price tolerance for merging overlapping zones (ticks)
Extend zones into the future with right extensions
Fully customizable colors and display settings
Alert conditions for Buy Pressure and Sell Pressure
Why ZoneRadar?
Simplifies complex order flow into clear, tradable zones
Helps identify high-probability reversal or continuation levels
Avoids noise by keeping only the cleanest zones
Works across any timeframe or market (stocks, futures, forex, crypto)

FlowScope [Hapharmonic]FlowScope: Uncover the Market's True Intent 🔬
Ever wished you could look inside the candles and see where the real action is happening? FlowScope is your microscope for the market's flow, designed to give you a powerful edge by revealing the volume distribution that price action alone can't show you.
Instead of just looking at the open, high, low, and close, FlowScope lets you dive deeper into the market's auction process. It groups candles together and builds a detailed Volume Profile for that period, showing you exactly where the trading happened and revealing the story behind the price action.
Let's explore how you can use it to gain a powerful new edge.
🧐 Core Concept: How It Works
At its heart, FlowScope does three key things:
It Groups Candles: You decide how many candles to group together. For example, setting " Group Candles " to 4 on a 5-minute chart effectively gives you a detailed 20-minute candle and profile. This helps you see the bigger picture and filter out market noise.
It Builds a Volume Profile: For each group, FlowScope analyzes the volume at every single price level. It then displays this as a horizontal histogram (we call this a "footprint" or profile). Longer bars mean more volume was traded at that price, indicating a "fair" price or an area of acceptance. Shorter bars mean price moved through quickly, indicating rejection.
It Creates a Custom "Grouped Candle": To summarize the group's overall price action, FlowScope draws a single, custom candle representing the entire group's:
Open: The open of the first candle in the group.
High: The absolute highest price reached within the group.
Low: The absolute lowest price reached within the group.
Close: The close of the last candle in the group.
This gives you a crystal-clear view of the group's net result, free from the back-and-forth noise of the individual candles inside it.
Below are some of the stunning preset color palettes you can choose from to customize your view:
🚀 How to Use: Practical Applications
FlowScope isn't just for looking pretty; it's a powerful analysis tool. Here are a few ways to integrate it into your trading:
Identify High-Volume Nodes (HVNs): Look for the longest bars in the profile. These are price levels where the market spent the most time and traded the most volume. HVNs often act as powerful "magnets" for price, becoming key areas of support and resistance.
Spot Low-Volume Nodes (LVNs): These are areas with very short bars or gaps in the profile. They represent price levels that the market moved through quickly and inefficiently. If price returns to an LVN, it's likely to move through it quickly again.
Analyze the Summary Box: This is where the real magic happens! ✨
Total Volume (Σ): The total volume for the entire group.
Buy (B) vs. Sell (S) Volume: FlowScope analyzes the lower timeframe action to estimate the buying and selling pressure that made up the total volume. Is a big red candle mostly aggressive selling, or was it just a lack of buyers? The B/S data gives you clues. A high-volume candle with nearly 50/50 buy/sell pressure might indicate absorption or a potential reversal.
Use the Grouped Candle for Clarity: Is the market in a clear uptrend, or is it just choppy? The grouped candle can give you a much clearer signal. A series of strong, green grouped candles shows much more conviction than a mix of small green and red candles.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
This is where you can truly make FlowScope your own. Let's walk through each setting.
Profile Settings
Group Candles: The number of standard chart candles you want to combine into a single FlowScope profile. A setting of 1 will analyze every single bar. A higher number gives you a broader market view. When Group Candles is set to 5, the data from the 5 individual candles are combined, and the volume is calculated accordingly.
Max Profile Boxes: This setting is more than just a number; it's a smart limit that ensures your profiles are always readable and relevant to the current market conditions.
Adaptive Sizing (The Ideal Goal): FlowScope first tries to create the perfect profile by making each volume box's height proportional to the current market volatility. It calculates an "ideal" box height based on the Average True Range ( ATR / 10 ). This is powerful because it automatically adapts: you get smaller, more detailed boxes in quiet, low-volatility markets, and larger, clearer boxes in volatile, fast-moving markets.
The Safety Cap (Your Setting): However, what if you group several candles during a massive price move? The price range could be huge! If we only used the small, ATR-based box height, you might end up with hundreds of tiny, unreadable boxes. This is where your Max Profile Boxes setting (defaulting to 50) comes in. It acts as a maximum detail cap . If the adaptive, volatility-based calculation determines that it would need more boxes than your setting (e.g., more than 50), the indicator will override it. It will then simply divide the entire price range of the group into exactly the number of boxes you specified (e.g., 50).
In short: You are setting the maximum allowable detail. FlowScope intelligently adapts the profile's granularity below that limit based on market volatility, ensuring you always get a clear and meaningful picture.
Style
Show Profile BG: A simple toggle to show or hide the faint background color behind the volume bars. Turning it off can create a cleaner look.
Color Mode: This dropdown controls how the volume profile text is colored.
Custom Gradient: This mode uses the three custom colors you select in the "Profile Colors" section to create a beautiful gradient across the profile.
Candle Color: This mode colors the profile based on whether the grouped candle was bullish (green) or bearish (red). The color will be a gradient, with the most intense color applied to the box with the highest volume; the colors of the other boxes will fade out from that point. It's a great way to see the profile's "mood" at a glance.
Profile Colors 🎨
Use Preset Palette: This is the master switch!
If checked: You can choose from 10 stunning, pre-designed color palettes from the Palette dropdown. The custom color pickers below will be disabled.
If unchecked (Default): The Palette dropdown will be disabled, and you can now choose your own three colors for the gradient.
Palette: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is checked) . Choose from 10 luxurious, eye-catching color schemes like "Solar Flare" or "Deep Space" to instantly change the look and feel of your chart.
Low Price / Mid Price / High Price: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is unchecked) . These three color pickers allow you to design your own unique gradient for the Custom Gradient color mode.
Candle Display
These settings control the custom "Grouped Candle" that summarizes the profile. When using the "Show Custom Candle" feature, you should change the chart's candlestick display to Bars for a cleaner view.
Show Custom Candle: This is the main toggle. When you check this box, the original chart candles will be hidden, and your custom FlowScope candle will be displayed instead. This custom candle is intentionally small to ensure it does not visually overlap with the volume profile boxes.
Show Body: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Toggles the visibility of the candle's body.
Wick Width & Body Width: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . These sliders let you control the thickness of the wick and body lines to match your personal style.
Up Color / Down Color: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Choose the colors for your bullish and bearish custom candles.
Experiment with the settings, find a style that works for you, and start seeing the market in a whole new light.
Happy trading! 📈😊

Cnagda Liquidit Trading SystemCnagda Liquidit Trading System helps spot where price is likely to trap traders and reverse, then gives simple, actionable Level to entry, place SL, and take profits with confidence. It blends imbalance zones, trend bias, order blocks, liquidity pools, high-probability fake Signal, and context-aware candle patterns into one clean workflow.
🟩🟥 Imbalance boxes: “Crowd rushed, gaps left”
What it is: Green/red boxes mark fast, one-sided moves where price “skipped” orders—think FVG-like zones that often get revisited.
Why it helps: Price frequently pulls back to “fill” these zones, creating clean retest entries with logical stops.
⏩How to use:
Green box = potential demand retest; Red box = potential supply retest. Enter on pullback into box, not on first impulse. Put stop on far side of box and aim first targets at recent swing points.
↕️ Swing bias (HH/HL vs LH/LL): “Which way is the road?”
What it is: Higher-highs/higher-lows = up-bias; Lower-highs/lower-lows = down-bias. system plots Buy/Sell OB levels aligned with that bias.
Why it helps: Trading with the broader flow reduces “hero trades” against institutions. Bias gives clearer entries and cleaner drawdowns.
⏩How to use:
Up-bias: look for long on Buy OB retests. Down-bias: look for short on Sell OB retests. Wait for a small rejection/engulfing to confirm before triggering.
🧱Order blocks: “Where big players remember”
What it is: last opposite-colored candle before an impulsive move—these zones often hold memory and reaction. system plots these as Buy/Sell OB lines.
Why it helps: Many breakouts pull back to the origin. Good entries often happen on retest, not on the breakout chase.
⏩ How to use:
Let price return into the OB, show wick rejection, and decent volume. Enter with stop beyond OB; define risk-reward before entry.
📊Volume coloring: “How Volume is move?”
What it is: Bar color reflects relative volume; inside bars are black. The dashboard also shows Volume and “Volume vs Prev.”
Why it helps: Patterns without volume often fade; volume validates strength and intent of moves.
⏩ How to use:
Favor entries where imbalance/OB/liquidity-grab coincide with higher volume. If volume is weak, reduce size or skip.
🧲 BSL/SSL liquidity pools: “Fishing for stops”
What it is: Equal highs cluster stops above (BSL); equal lows cluster stops below (SSL). system plots these and highlights the nearest one (“magnet”).
Why it helps: Price often sweeps these pools to trigger stops before reversing. This is a prime trap-reversal location.
⏩ How to use:
Watch nearest BSL/SSL. If price wicks through and closes back inside, anticipate a reversal. Trade reaction, not first poke. When price closes beyond, consider that pool mitigated and move on.
🟢🔴 Advanced liquidity grab: “Catch fakeout”
What it is: Bullish grab = makes a new low beyond a prior low but closes back above it, with a long lower wick, small body, and higher volume. Bearish is mirror. Labeled automatically.
Why it helps: It exposes trap moves (stop hunts) and often precedes true direction.
⏩ How to use:
Best when it aligns with a nearby imbalance/OB and supportive volume. Enter on reversal candle break or on retest. Stop goes beyond sweep wick.
🧠 Smart candlestick patterns (only in right place)
What it is: Engulfing, Hammer, Shooting Star, Hanging Man, Doji (with high volume), Morning/Evening Star, Piercing—but marked “effective” only if context (swing/trend/location) agrees.
Why it helps: same pattern in the wrong place is noise; in the right place, it’s signal.
⏩ How to use:
Location first (BSL/SSL/OB/imbalance), then pattern. Treat pattern as trigger/confirmation—one fresh label shows to keep chart clean.
🧭 Dashboard: “Context in a glance”
⏩ Reversal Level: current swing anchor—expect turns or reactions nearby; great for alerts and planning.
⏩ Volume vs Prev + Volume: Strength meter for signal candle—higher adds conviction.
⏩ Nearest Pool: next “magnet” area—look for sweeps/rejections there.
🧩Step-by-step trading flow (with mindset)
⏩ Set bias: HH/HL = long bias, LH/LL = short bias. Counter-trend only on clean sweeps with strong confirmation.
⏩ Find magnet: Check Nearest Pool (BSL/SSL). Focus attention there; it saves screen time.
⏩ Wait for event: Look for a sweep/grab label, or sharp rejection at pool/OB/imbalance. Avoid FOMO.
⏩ Add confluence: Stack 2–3 of these—imbalance box, OB, contextual pattern, supportive volume.
⏩Plan entry: Bullish: trigger above reversal candle high or take retest of FVG/OB. Stop below sweep wick/zone. Target at least 1:1.5–1:2.
Bearish: mirror above.
⏩Manage smartly: Take partials, move to breakeven or trail thoughtfully. Don’t drag stops inside zone out of emotion.
🎛️ Parameter tuning (to reduce human error)
⏩ swingLen: Smaller = faster but noisier; larger = cleaner but slower. Backtest first, then go live.
⏩ Tolerance (ATR or percent): ATR tolerance adapts to volatility (good for fast markets and lower TFs). Start around 0.15–0.30. In calm markets, try percent 0.05–0.15%.
⏩ minBarsGap: Start with 3–5 so equal highs/lows are truly equal—reduces false pools.
❌Common mistakes → ✅ Better habits
⏩Chasing every breakout → Wait for sweep/rejection, then confirm.
⏩Ignoring volume → Validate strength; cut size or skip on weak volume.
⏩Losing history of pools → If reviewing/backtesting, keep mitigated pools visible (dashed/faded).
⏩Over-tight tolerance/too small swingLen → Increases false signals; backtest to find balance.
📝 checklist (before entry)
⏩ Is there a nearby BSL/SSL and did a sweep/grab happen there?
⏩ Is there a close imbalance/OB that price can retest?
⏩ Do we have an effective pattern plus supportive volume?
⏩Is the stop beyond the wick/zone and RR ≥ 1:1.5?

True Order Block (OB) True Order Block (OB)
This script automatically detects and plots Order Blocks (OBs) based on the presence of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
Only Order Blocks are displayed on the chart.
🔎 How it works
The script looks for Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) according to a relaxed 3-candle definition.
Once an FVG is detected:
For a Bullish FVG → the last bearish candle before the gap is marked as the Bullish Order Block.
For a Bearish FVG → the last bullish candle before the gap is marked as the Bearish Order Block.
OBs are extended into the future until price either:
mitigates the zone (optional auto-removal), or
the number of live OBs exceeds the user’s maximum (FIFO cleanup).
⚙️ User settings
Draw Order Blocks (enable/disable plotting)
Minimum OB length (how far each zone extends initially)
Remove OB after violation (auto delete invalidated zones)
Max active OBs (limit on displayed zones for clarity)
Bullish/Bearish OB colors
✅ Key features
Fully automated OB detection
No clutter – only OBs are plotted (FVG logic hidden in the background)
Smart cleanup: mitigated zones are removed automatically
Customizable colors & limits

ICT Order Blocks HTFICT Order Blocks HTF (with Parent Swing Confirmation)
This indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify high-probability Higher-Timeframe (HTF) Order Blocks by confirming them with significant liquidity sweeps on your trading chart. It combines two core ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts to filter out noise and highlight only the most sensitive areas.
The Core Concept: A High-Probability Model
The most powerful trading setups often occur when a significant event on a lower timeframe happens at a key area on a higher timeframe. This indicator automates that analysis by looking for a specific confluence:
A Liquidity Sweep (LTF): First, it identifies a "Parent Swing" on your current chart. This is a significant swing high (BSL - Buy Side Liquidity) or swing low (SSL - Sell Side Liquidity) that has been validated by a market structure shift. These are the key liquidity pools the market targets.
An Order Block (HTF): Separately, it looks at a higher timeframe of your choice (e.g., 15m, 1H) to find institutional order blocks—the last up or down candle before a strong move.
The Confluence: The magic happens here. The indicator will only draw an HTF order block on your chart if it forms at the exact moment the price is interacting with one of the BSL or SSL liquidity pools from your current chart.
This dual confirmation provides a refined, high-probability signal, indicating that a major liquidity event is fueling a reaction from a significant HTF level.
What the Indicator Does
Identifies Parent Swings: In the background, it constantly tracks and identifies BSL (red lines) and SSL (green lines) on your chart.
Finds HTF Order Blocks: It looks for bullish (last down-candle) and bearish (last up-candle) order blocks on the higher timeframe you select.
Draws Confirmed Zones: It draws a Bullish OB (Blue Box) only when an HTF bullish order block forms at an SSL level. It draws a Bearish OB (Orange Box) only when an HTF bearish order block forms at a BSL level.
Marks Key Levels: Each order block is automatically drawn with dashed lines marking its high, low, and midpoint (50% level) for precise entry and risk management.
Real-Time Invalidation: The order blocks extend into the future and are tracked in real-time. If price closes through a block a specified number of times, the zone is considered invalid and will be dimmed, keeping your chart clean.
How to Use This Indicator
The primary use for this indicator is to identify high-probability entry zones.
When a Bullish Order Block (Blue) appears, it signals a potential area of demand where you might look for long entries.
When a Bearish Order Block (Orange) appears, it signals a potential area of supply where you might look for short entries.
The internal lines (high, low, midpoint) can be used for more precise entries or for setting stop-loss levels.
Settings
Higher Timeframe for Order Blocks: Choose the HTF you want the indicator to analyze for order blocks (e.g., 15m, 1H, 4H).
OB Invalidation Threshold: Set how many times price must close fully through an order block before it is considered invalid.
Parent Swing Settings: You can adjust the lookback periods and invalidation threshold for the BSL/SSL detection to match your trading style. A larger lookback will find more significant liquidity pools.

ICT Sensitive Key Levels [Mariinus]Indicator Overview – Inspired by ICT Concepts
This indicator is inspired by the teachings of Inner Circle Trader (ICT), whose philosophies and principles have greatly shaped the way I view price action. One of the most powerful lessons that stuck with me is his quote:
"All you need is OHLC."
Another fundamental concept that underpins this tool is the idea that:
"Price is constantly moving in cycles from Premium or Discount to Equilibrium, from Equilibrium to Discount to Premium."
With these core ideas in mind, this indicator was developed to help traders who are already using an ICT-based framework. In addition to plotting the standard OHLC levels, the ICT Sensitive Key Levels indicator also includes derived levels that provide deeper Market insight. These include the Equilibrium of the full candle range (High to Low) as well as the Equilibrium of the wicks – offering a more nuanced view of price balance and potential turning points, in line with ICT’s core concepts.
⚠️ Important Disclaimer:
This is not a standalone trading plan.
This is not a buy or sell signal generator.
Instead, this tool is designed to support traders who follow ICT principles by helping them identify higher-probability PD Arrays – the key zones where setups are more likely to occur. If your trading plan includes looking for specific PD Arrays and structural frameworks taught by ICT, then this indicator is a visual aid to refine and focus your attention on the areas where your framework has a higher probability of playing out.
🔁 Backtesting & Daily Preparation
In addition to improving your real-time analysis, this indicator is also a valuable tool for accelerated backtesting . Rather than manually drawing out levels, the indicator automatically provides them, allowing you to analyze past price action faster and more efficiently .
It’s also ideal for preparing your trading day . By loading the indicator before the session starts, you get a clear visual of key levels that may play a role in your strategy. And if you find the chart too cluttered with lines, simply copy the ones that matter to you, draw them manually, and then turn the indicator off to keep your chart clean while keeping your zones intact.
⚙️ Explanation of the Settings
You can combine up to 4 timeframes to monitor their respective levels while operating on a lower timeframe. For each timeframe, you can:
• Set a lookback period to control how far back you want to calculate levels.
• Choose to display or hide the levels of the current candle , which helps you monitor intra-candle ebbs and flows.
Each level (e.g., High, Low, Open, Close, Equilibrium) can be customized:
• Color
• Line style
• Line width
• To hide a level , simply set its opacity to zero.
You can also enable dividers to clearly mark the start and end of higher timeframe candles on your lower timeframe chart. These dividers are also fully customizable:
• Color
• Style
• Width
• And again, if you prefer a cleaner chart, you can set the opacity to zero to hide them completely.
This setup gives you full control over how much or how little visual data you want to see, aligning the tool with your personal trading workflow.
💡 Example Use Cases
These examples are for educational purposes only. This tool is not financial advice and should always be used in conjunction with your own trading plan—whether it involves Fair Value Gaps, Order Blocks, or a custom combination of ICT-based elements.
• Example 1: A 1H Bearish Fair Value Gap overlapping with the Equilibrium Key Level of the Previous Day's Range – a high-probability zone for reaction.
• Example 2: A 1H Bullish Fair Value Gap in Discount, overlapping with the Equilibrium of Two Days Ago, followed by a move into a 1H Bearish Order Block that coincides with the Previous Day’s Equilibrium.
• Example 3: The same 1H PD Arrays viewed from a 4H chart, alongside Weekly Price Levels – giving you a higher timeframe context that supports or invalidates lower timeframe setups.
• Example 4: A combination of two timeframes for added context. A 4H Bullish Fair Value Gap is nested inside the current Weekly Equilibrium Key Level . On the 15M chart , we observe a reaction that creates an Inversion Fair Value Gap , which aligns with the Equilibrium Key Level of the previous 4H candle .
This indicator doesn’t replace your trading plan—it enhances your ability to execute it. It’s a precision tool made for ICT traders who understand context, structure, and probability.

Signal Analysis & Usage Guidelines
Buy Signal Mechanics
The buy signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bearish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle reclaims a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key support level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
Sell Signal Mechanics
The sell signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bullish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle rejects below a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key resistance level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
When to TAKE Signals
High Probability Buy Signals:
Signal appears AT or BELOW the VAL (Value Area Low)
Signal occurs at bullish order block confluence
Price is in LVN area below VAL (momentum acceleration zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% support
Multiple session POC levels provide support confluence
Previous session's VAL acting as current support
High Probability Sell Signals:
Signal appears AT or ABOVE the VAH (Value Area High)
Signal occurs at bearish order block confluence
Price is in HVN area above VAH (heavy resistance zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% resistance
Multiple session POC levels provide resistance confluence
Previous session's VAH acting as current resistance
When to AVOID Signals
Avoid Buy Signals When:
Signal appears ABOVE the VAH (buying into resistance)
Price is in HVN red zones (high volume resistance areas)
No clear support structure below current price
Volume profile shows heavy selling pressure (high bear percentages)
Signal occurs during low-volume periods between major sessions
Multiple bearish order blocks exist below current price
Avoid Sell Signals When:
Signal appears BELOW the VAL (selling into support)
Price is in LVN green zones (momentum could continue)
No clear resistance structure above current price
Volume profile shows heavy buying pressure (high bull percentages)
Signal occurs during Asian session ranges without clear direction
Multiple bullish order blocks exist above current price
Volume Profile Context for Signals
Understanding Bull/Bear Percentages:
70%+ Bull dominance at a level = Strong support expected
70%+ Bear dominance at a level = Strong resistance expected
50/50 Split = Neutral zone, less predictable
Use percentages to gauge conviction behind moves
POC (Point of Control) Interactions:
Signals above POC in uptrend = Higher probability
Signals below POC in downtrend = Higher probability
Signals against POC bias require extra confirmation
POC often acts as magnetic level for price return
Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: VAL/VAH Bounce Strategy
Wait for price to approach VAL (support) or VAH (resistance)
Look for signal confirmation at these critical levels
Enter with tight stops beyond the Value Area
Target opposite boundary or next session's levels
Strategy 2: Order Block + Volume Confluence
Identify order block alignment with VAL/VAH
Wait for signal within the confluence zone
Enter on signal with stop beyond order block
Use LVN areas as acceleration zones for targets
Strategy 3: LVN/HVN Strategy
LVN (Green) Areas: "Go Zones" - expect quick price movement through low volume
HVN (Red) Areas: "Stop Zones" - expect resistance and potential reversals
NPOC Areas: "Fill Zones" - price often returns to fill single print gaps
Strategy 4: Multi-Session Analysis
Use Daily/Weekly for major structure context
Use 4H for intermediate levels
Use 1H for precise entry timing
Ensure all timeframes align before taking signals
Strategy 5: Fibonacci + Volume Profile
Buy signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAL
Sell signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAH
Use 88.6% level as final support/resistance before major moves
50% level often aligns with POC for confluence
Signal Quality Assessment
Grade A Signals (Highest Probability):
Signal at VAL/VAH with order block confluence
Fibonacci level alignment (61.8%, 78.6%)
Volume profile shows 70%+ dominance in signal direction
Multiple timeframe structure alignment
Signal occurs during high-volume sessions (London/NY)
Grade B Signals (Moderate Probability):
Signal near POC with some confluence
Fibonacci 50% or 38.2% alignment
Mixed volume profile readings (50-70% dominance)
Some timeframe alignment present
Signal during overlap sessions
Grade C Signals (Lower Probability):
Signal with minimal confluence
Weak fibonacci alignment or none
Volume profile neutral or against signal
Conflicting timeframe signals
Signal during low-volume periods
Risk Management Guidelines
Position Sizing Based on Signal Quality:
Grade A: Standard position size
Grade B: Reduced position size (50-75%)
Grade C: Minimal position size (25%) or skip entirely
Stop Loss Placement:
Beyond order block boundaries
Outside Value Area (VAL/VAH)
Below/above fibonacci confluence levels

Important Disclaimers
This indicator is a technical analysis tool designed for educational purposes. It does not provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or trading signals that guarantee profits. All trading involves substantial risk of loss, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Users should conduct their own research, understand the risks involved, and consider consulting with qualified financial advisors before making trading decisions. The signals and analysis provided are based on historical price patterns and volume data, which may not predict future market movements accurately.
Best Practices
Never trade signals blindly - always consider volume profile context
Wait for confluence between multiple tools before entering
Respect the Value Area - avoid buying above VAH or selling below VAL
Use session context - Asian ranges vs London/NY breakouts
Practice proper risk management - position size based on signal quality
Understand the bigger picture - use multiple timeframes for context
Remember: Like the IDKFA cheat code, having all the tools doesn't guarantee success. The key is learning to use them together effectively and understanding when NOT to take a signal is often more important than knowing when to take one.
Hidden Orderblock,HOB,OB,BB,MT,MTF Hidden Order Block & Breaker Block (HOB/BB) Multi-Timeframe Analysis
A powerful tool for Smart Money traders and ICT-style practitioners seeking precision, confluence, and clean visual execution. This indicator identifies institutional price zones such as Hidden Order Blocks (HOB), Breaker Blocks (BB), Partial Hidden Order Blocks (PHOB), and traditional Order Blocks (OB)—all across multiple timeframes with minimal chart clutter.
✅ Key Features
1. Hidden Order Block (HOB) Detection
Identifies non-obvious order blocks often hidden within price action.
Requires the EQ (Equilibrium) of the block to pass through at least one Fair Value Gap (FVG).
Invalidation Rule: If price touches the EQ and then closes beyond it (depending on structure), the HOB is invalidated.
2. Breaker Block (BB) Detection
Highlights zones where price made a liquidity grab followed by a strong reversal.
Useful for anticipating support/resistance flips and high-probability reaction areas.
3. Partial Hidden Order Block (PHOB) Detection
A variation of HOBs where price only partially touches the EQ.
Often acts as an early warning zone for reversals or continuation.
Less strict than HOBs, but still institutionally relevant.
4. Traditional Order Block (OB) Detection
Identifies bullish/bearish OBs based on engulfing patterns and displacement.
Marks only the body of the engulfing candle, with the EQ line acting as a key validation/invalidation level.
Once the EQ is touched, the OB is considered invalidated.
5. Engulfing Filter Engine
Customizable logic for OB qualification.
“Easy Engulfing Mode” simplifies detection for newer traders or faster workflow.
Fine-tune aggressiveness and visual clarity with user-defined settings.
6. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Visualization
Overlay OBs, HOBs, BBs, and PHOBs from higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, 1D) on lower timeframes (15m, 1H).
Enhances top-down confluence without switching charts.
Keeps the visual experience clean and intuitive.
7. Minimalist Visual Design
Only the zone boundaries and EQ lines are displayed.
No extra noise—perfect for both scalpers and swing traders.
Dynamic label positioning and styling for improved chart aesthetics.
8. Performance-Optimized Code
Lightweight, real-time rendering.
Designed for responsiveness—even on lower timeframes with dense historical data.
⚙️ How It Works (Simplified Logic)
Order Block Detection:
Scans for engulfing candles that show displacement.
Defines the OB as the body of the engulfing candle.
EQ line is marked and projected forward until invalidated.
Hidden Order Block Logic:
Starts from a traditional OB, but requires the EQ to pass through at least one FVG.
Upon a close beyond the EQ in the opposite direction, the HOB is invalidated.
PHOB Logic:
Similar to HOBs, but allows partial touches of the EQ before reacting.
Breaker Block Logic:
Identifies liquidity sweeps followed by impulsive moves.
Marks these zones as BBs for potential reaction areas.
📈 Use Cases
Detect institutional price zones with high precision.
Simplify decision-making with visual EQs and MTF overlays.
Integrate seamlessly into:
Smart Money Concepts (SMC)
ICT-style trading
Wyckoff methodology
Discretionary zone-to-zone strategies
🧠 Definitions Summary
OB (Order Block):
Engulfed candle body; EQ is the midpoint of the body. Invalid once EQ is touched.
HOB (Hidden Order Block):
Like OB, but EQ must pass through at least one FVG.
Invalidated when a candle touches EQ and closes beyond it.
PHOB (Partial Hidden Order Block):
Like HOB, but allows partial touch of the EQ to remain valid.

CANX Supply and Demand - Order Block - Candle Identification© CanxStixTrader
CANX Supply and Demand - Order Block - Candle Identification
Description
Designed as a visual aid, to highlight the last up or down candle before a fractal break. We can assume these candles where the point of origin that generated enough strength to break recent structure. By using them as reference points, traders are expected to follow their own set of rules and mark higher probability supply and demand zones in the area.
How to use:
Expect price to retest in these areas, and if they fail, a potential retest in the opposite direction . The greater the number of times a zone is tested, the more likely it is to break. A fresh zone that has not yet been tested will have a higher probability of a bounce.
Fractal period and candle break type can be customized in the settings. This works on all time frames.
**The indicator is set to my optimal settings for the 5 minute or 15 minute time frame** Please mess around to find your comfort zone and back test the results.
The lower the period number the more noise this creates on the market. The higher the number the less noise and more potential for a stronger zone.

Tweak FVG/Order Block parameters:
Adjust Lookback Bars and Filter Gaps by % to fine-tune the number of zones.
Customize your EMAs (periods and colors) to suit your trend-following or mean-reversion approach.
Combine the layers: watch how price behaves within session boxes, around FVG/Order Blocks, and relative to your EMAs to plan entries and exits.
Order Blocks [TakingProphets]The Order Blocks indicator automatically finds and highlights institutional Order Blocks (OBs) on your chart — powerful price zones where smart money has previously entered the market with large orders. These areas often act as strong support or resistance, and they’re key tools for traders using ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) strategies.
📘 What’s an Order Block?
An Order Block is usually the last bullish or bearish candle before a big move or shift in market structure. It represents where banks, funds, or institutions placed large buy or sell orders. Retail traders often miss these zones, but smart money traders use them to anticipate where price may return, stall, or even reverse.
This indicator identifies these zones for you — both bullish and bearish — so you don’t have to manually mark them.
🔍 How the Indicator Works
It waits for a market structure shift — when price breaks out of a recent high or low range.
Then it looks back to find the last opposite candle before that breakout — that candle becomes the OB.
It draws a box from the open of that candle to the high/low (depending on type) and keeps updating the box forward.
You can choose how strict the OBs need to be (Small, Medium, or Large) using ATR-based size filtering.
🔄 Breaker Blocks (Optional Feature)
If price closes through an Order Block in the opposite direction, that OB is considered invalid. But instead of deleting it, the indicator can automatically draw a Breaker Block. Breakers are important because they often become new support or resistance zones — a sign the market has flipped direction and is now respecting that level in a new way.
🎛 Custom Settings
Choose OB detection sensitivity: High (shows smaller moves), Medium, or Low (only the biggest institutional moves).
Customize colors and whether you want to show borders on each block.
Turn Breaker Blocks on or off based on your strategy.
Everything is dynamic and updates live as price evolves.
💡 Why Use It?
Knowing where smart money entered the market gives you a huge edge. Price often returns to these Order Blocks to "rebalance" or fill unfilled orders. With this indicator, you’ll:
Spend less time marking charts.
Spot high-probability entry zones faster.
Avoid common retail traps and trade with the algorithm.
CoffeeShopCrypto High Timeframe Dynamic Order BlocksThis indicator automates the detection of significant order blocks in real time, from higher timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly) and dynamically adapts their zone boundaries to your current chart timeframe regardless of what you change it to. By analyzing market structure across multiple time horizons, it identifies institutional-level supply/demand zones and precisely recalculates their parameters to match your active chart's resolution - whether you're viewing 1-minute or 4-hour candles or even higher.
Key Technical Features:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Scans daily/weekly/monthly data to identify the most significant order blocks that influence all lower timeframes
Adaptive Zone Calculation: Automatically recalculates zone boundaries when you change timeframes, maintaining accurate price levels and candle formations specific to your chart
Smart Price Action Filtering: Isolates only the relevant candles that formed each order block within your current timeframe's context
Structural Precision: Adjusts zone width and position based on the actual candle wicks/bodies that created the order block in your active timeframe.
What they look like when calculated instantly.
About Order Blocks (Market Structure Perspective):
Order blocks represent concentrated areas where institutional traders executed significant positions, creating imbalances in market structure.
These zones become:
Bullish Order Blocks: Demand areas where aggressive buying overwhelmed sellers, often appearing as consolidation before strong upward movements.
Bearish Order Blocks: Supply zones where distribution activity preceded substantial downward moves.
How It Works Differently:
The indicator identifies these critical areas by analyzing the relationship between consecutive candles' opens, highs, lows, and closes - particularly focusing on break-of-structure patterns that confirm zone validity.
Traditional order block indicators simply copy higher timeframe zones to lower charts. These common orderblocks are said be found as the candle before the candle that caused a huge market swing. In a break long, you would look backwards to find the first previous bearish candle. The opposite find would be for a break short.
This is a most unreliable method in finding orderblocks and simply is not true.
Zone Extensions. Choose how far into the future you want your zone to go to. There is no wrong number but you don't want to go too far.
This scripts performs true multi-timeframe analysis by:
Detecting the original order block formation conditions on HTFs
Drilling down to find the exact "candle sequence" that created the zone in your current timeframe.
Continuously monitoring for structural breaks that invalidate zones
Automatically adjusting all visual elements when you switch timeframes
Usage Benefits:
Eliminates manual timeframe switching to identify significant zones
Maintains visual consistency when changing chart resolutions
Provides cleaner charts by only showing relevant order blocks
Adapts to any market (Forex, Stocks, Crypto) and any timeframe combination
Breached Zones. The zone becomes invalidated but the Supply or Demand line is still relevant.
Note on Trading:
While this indicator precisely identifies order block locations, trading methodologies using these zones depend on individual strategy preferences. The tool focuses exclusively on accurate technical detection and adaptive visualization across timeframes.
How to Use Them:
As long as you don't have price action breach of a Bullish Zone Demand Floor you can keep using that zone as a bullish orderblock until its Demand Floor has been breached.
This also means you can still use its Demand Floor as a support level while the Zone itself is no longer relevant. This eliminates the orderblock ZONE as being an orderblock and now you only have a supply floor left to use as support.
As long as you don't have price action breach of a Bearish Zone Supply Wall you can keep using that zone as a bearish orderblock until its Supply Wall has been breached.
This also means you can still use its Supply Wall as a resistance level while the Zone itself is no longer relevant. This eliminates the orderblock ZONE as being an orderblock and now you only have a resistance level.
Once either has been breached, you would find liquidity behind the zone of the ordreblock. This is where price will seek support or resistance depending on the zone type.
Orderblocks has a BODY and who knew they could be so cute. I mean look at this structure.
This is how they are built and what their levels represent.

Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
Smarter Money Concepts - OBs (Order Blocks) is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify and visualize institutional order zones on your charts. Order blocks represent significant areas of liquidity where smart money has entered positions before major moves. By tracking these zones, traders can anticipate potential reversals, continuations, and key reaction points in price action.
This indicator incorporates volume filtering technology to identify only the most significant order blocks, eliminating low-quality signals and focusing on areas where institutional participation is likely present. The combination of price structure analysis and volume confirmation provides traders with high-probability zones that may attract future price action for tests, rejections, or breakouts.
🚀 Points of Innovation

Structure Recognition System : Employs technical analysis algorithms to find significant swing points for accurate order block identification
Dual Directional Tracking : Simultaneously monitors both bullish and bearish order blocks for comprehensive market structure analysis
🔧 Core Components
Order Block Detection : Identifies institutional entry zones by analyzing price action before significant breaks of structure, capturing where smart money has likely positioned before moves.
Volume Filtering Algorithm : Calculates relative volume compared to a moving average to qualify only order blocks formed with significant market participation, eliminating noise.
Structure Break Recognition : Uses price action analysis to detect legitimate breaks of market structure, ensuring order blocks are identified only at significant market turning points.
Dynamic Block Management : Continuously monitors price interaction with existing blocks, extending, maintaining, or removing them based on current market behavior.
🔥 Key Features
Volume-Based Filtering : Filter out insignificant blocks by requiring a minimum volume threshold, focusing only on zones with likely institutional activity
Visual Block Highlighting : Color-coded boxes clearly mark bullish and bearish order blocks with customizable appearance
Flexible Mitigation Options : Choose between “Wick” or “Close” methods for determining when a block has been tested or mitigated
Scan Range Adjustment : Customize how far back the indicator looks for structure points to adapt to different market conditions and timeframes
Break Source Selection : Configure which price component (close, open, high, low) is used to determine structure breaks for precise block identification
🎨 Visualization
Bullish Order Blocks : Blue-colored rectangles highlighting zones where bullish institutional orders were likely placed before upward moves, representing potential support areas.
Bearish Order Blocks : Red-colored rectangles highlighting zones where bearish institutional orders were likely placed before downward moves, representing potential resistance areas.
Block Extension : Order blocks extend to the right of the chart, providing clear visualization of these significant zones as price continues to develop.
📖 Usage Guidelines
Order Block Settings
Scan Range : Default: 25. Defines how many bars the indicator scans to determine significant structure points for order block identification.

✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying high-probability support and resistance zones for trade entries and exits
Finding optimal stop-loss placement behind significant order blocks
Detecting potential reversal areas where price may react after extended moves
Confirming breakout trades when price clears major order blocks
Building a comprehensive market structure map for medium to long-term trading decisions
Pinpointing areas where smart money may have positioned before major market moves
⚠️ Limitations
Most effective on higher timeframes (1H and above) where institutional activity is more clearly defined
Can generate multiple signals in choppy market conditions, requiring additional filtering
Volume filtering relies on accurate volume data, which may be less reliable for some securities
Recent market structure changes may invalidate older order blocks not yet automatically removed
Block identification is based on historical price action and may not predict future behavior with certainty
💡 What Makes This Unique
Volume Intelligence : Unlike basic order block indicators, this script incorporates volume analysis to identify only the most significant institutional zones, focusing on quality over quantity.
Structural Precision : Uses sophisticated break of structure algorithms to identify true market turning points, going beyond simple price pattern recognition.
Dynamic Block Management : Implements automatic block tracking, extension, and cleanup to maintain a clean and relevant chart display without manual intervention.
Institutional Focus : Designed specifically to highlight areas where smart money has likely positioned, helping retail traders align with institutional perspectives rather than retail noise.
🔬 How It Works
1. Structure Identification Process :
The indicator continuously scans price action to identify significant swing points and structure levels within the specified range, establishing a foundation for order block recognition.
2. Break Detection :
When price breaks an established structure level (crossing below a significant low for bearish breaks or above a significant high for bullish breaks), the indicator marks this as a potential zone for order block formation.
3. Volume Qualification :
For each potential order block, the algorithm calculates the relative volume compared to the configured period average. Only blocks formed with volume exceeding the minimum ratio threshold are displayed.
4. Block Creation and Management :
Valid order blocks are created, tracked, and managed as price continues to develop. Blocks extend to the right of the chart until they are either mitigated by price action or expire after the designated timeframe.
5. Continuous Monitoring :
The indicator constantly evaluates price interaction with existing blocks, determining when blocks have been tested, mitigated, or invalidated, and updates the visual representation accordingly.
💡 Note:
Order Blocks represent areas where institutional traders have likely established positions and may defend these zones during future price visits. For optimal results, use this indicator in conjunction with other confluent factors such as key support/resistance levels, trendlines, or additional confirmation indicators. The most reliable signals typically occur on higher timeframes where institutional activity is most prominent. Start with the default settings and adjust parameters gradually to match your specific trading instrument and style.
RSI Support & Resistance Breakouts with OrderblocksThis tool is an overly simplified method of finding market squeeze and breakout completely based on a dynamic RSI calculation. It is designed to draw out areas of price levels where the market is pushing back against price action leaving behind instances of short term support and resistance levels you otherwise wouldn't see with the common RSI.
It uses the changes in market momentum to determine support and resistance levels in real time while offering price zone where order blocks exist in the short term.
In ranging markets we need to know a couple things.
1. External Zone - It's important to know where the highs and lows were left behind as they hold liquidity. Here you will have later price swings and more false breakouts.
2. Internal Zone - It's important to know where the highest and lowest closing values were so we can see the limitations of that squeeze. Here you will find the stronger cluster of orders often seen as orderblocks.
In this tool I've added a 200 period Smoothed Moving Average as a trend filter which causes the RSI calculation to change dynamically.
Regular Zones - without extending
The Zones draw out automatically but are often too small to work with.
To solve this problem, you can extend the zones into the future up to 40 bars.
This allows for more visibility against future price action.
--------------------------------------------
Two Types of Zones
External Zones - These zones give you positioning of the highest and lowest price traded within the ranging market. This is where liquidity will be swept and often is an ultimate breaking point for new price swings.
How to use them :
External Zones - External zones form at the top of a pullback. After this price should move back into its impulsive wave.
During the next corrective way, if price breaches the top of the previous External Zone, this is a sign of trend weakness. Expect a divergence and trend reversal.
Internal Zones - (OrderBlocks) Current price will move in relation to previous internal zones. The internal zone is where a majority of price action and trading took place. It's a stronger SQUEEZE area. Current price action will often have a hard time closing beyond the previous Internal Zones high or low. You can expect these zones to show you where the market will flip over. In these same internal zones you'll find large rejection candles.
**Important Note** Size Doesn't Matter
The size of the internal zone does not matter. It can be very small and still very powerful.
Once an internal zone has been hit a few times, its often not relevant any longer.
Order Block Zone Examples
In this image you can see the Internal Zone that was untouched had a STRONG price reaction later on.
Internal Zones that were touched multiple times had weak reactions later as price respected them less over time.
Zone Overlay Breakdown
The Zones form and update in real time until momentum has picked up and price begins to trend. However it leaves behind the elements of the inducement area and all the key levels you need to know about for future price action.
Resistance Fakeout : Later on after the zone has formed, price will return to this upper zone of price levels and cause fakeouts. A close above this zone implies the market moves long again.
Midline Equilibrium : This is simply the center of the strongest traded area. We can call this the Point of Control within the orderblock. If price expands through both extremes of this zone multiple times in the future, it eliminates the orderblock.
Support Fakeout : Just like its opposing brother, price will wick through this zone and rip back causing inducement to trap traders. You would need a clear close below this zone to be in a bearish trend.
BARCOLOR or Candle Color: (Optional)
Bars are colored under three conditions
Bullish Color = A confirmed bullish breakout of the range.
Bearish Color = A confirmed bearish breakout of the range.
Squeeze Color = Even if no box is formed a candle or candles can have a squeeze color. This means the ranging market happened within the high and low of that singular candle.
Order Block Indicator | DTDHello trader comuunity!
I'm uploading a basic script that I felt necessary to make to help me with some gaps in my day trading. I personally am a visual trader that benefits greatly from automating some the ideas I have in my head. There are awesome builders out there and me creating this script isn't a knock on what's currently available to us, but something I wanted to be able to manage. I am opening up what I've found extremely helpful to my own trading to the community.
Here we have a very simple ATR-based order block (OB) finder. It's not anything original, but I do find consistent opportunities when combined with other tools I use to measure the market. It takes into consideration the previous 25 candles to determine if the OB is significant enough to mark. I use the average of 25 because I simply like it. I use the 25 EMA as part of my "trending" templates and find it to be a hybrid timeframe of sorts. You can find macro and micro trade locations by switching timeframes.
The main elements of the script are:
1. ATR based tracking | A bullish OB is defined as a down close candle that is eclipsed by an up-close candle that closes above its high and sustained for 2 consecutive candles. Inversely, a bearish OB is defined by an up-close candle immediately followed by a down-close candle that closes below the low of the up-close candle and sustains for 2 consecutive candles.
2. Coloring the OB | Though up-close and down-close define bearish and bullish levels, with this script I basically make OBs to switch colors based on where price is relative to the block. So a bullish block can become bearish and bearish can become bullish. Each block also has a dashed midpoint.
3. Order Block Mitigation | When price retests an OB by closing inside of it and retracing back out, that is considered mitigation. You will see price tap into it, but continues to track as a valid block, it's because it didn't close inside the block. This is subject to change in the future, but it's how the script functions for now.
______________
There are nuances to the script that you will see as you use it. Sometimes mitigated OBs act as levels to consider as well. When multiple blocks overlap I consider that a high traffic area. I would never suggest to use an indicator by itself for trade ideas, but blocks that align on multiple timeframes are good to consider.
At the end of the day it's a support and resistance measure. I'll comment an update with a snapshot of the indicator with another proprietary indicator I've made that provides ample intraday trading opportunities.
Cheers,
DTD
