LuxAlgo® - Price Action Concepts™Price Action Concepts™ is a first of it's kind all-in-one indicator toolkit which includes various features specifically based on pure price action.
Order Blocks w/ volume data, real-time market structure (BOS, CHoCH, EQH/L) w/ 'CHoCH+' being a more confirmed reversal signal, a MTF dashboard, Trend Line Liquidity Zones (real-time), Chart Pattern Liquidity Zones, Liquidity Grabs, and much more detailed customization to get an edge trading price action automatically.
Many traders argue that trading price action is better than using technical indicators due to lag, complexity, and noisy charts. Popular ideas within the trading space that cater towards price action trading include "trading like the banks" or "Smart Money Concepts trading" (SMC), most prominently known within the forex community.
What differentiates price action trading from others forms of technical analysis is that it's main focus is on raw price data opposed to creating values or plots derived from price history.
Mostly all of the features within this script are generated purely from price action, more specifically; swing highs, swing lows, and market structure... which allows users to automate their analysis of price action for any market / timeframe.
🔶 FEATURES
This script includes many features based on Price Action; these are highlighted below:
Market structure (BOS, CHoCH, CHoCH+, EQH/L) (Internal & Swing) multi-timeframe
Volumetric Order Blocks & mitigation methods (bullish & bearish)
Liquidity Concepts
Trend Line Liquidity Zones
Chart Pattern Liquidity
Liquidity Grabs Feature
Imbalance Concepts MTF w/ multiple mitigation methods

+ more (see changelog below for current features)
🔶 BASIC DEMONSTRATION
In the image above we can see a demonstration of the market structure labeling within this indicator. The automatic BOS & CHoCH labels on top of dashed lines give clear indications of breakouts & reversals within the internal market structure (short term price action). The "CHoCH+" label is also demonstrated as it triggers only if price has already made a new higher low, or lower high.
We can also see a solid line with a larger BOS label in the middle of the chart. This label demonstrates a break of structure taking into account the swing market structure (longer term price action). All of these labels are generated in real-time.
🔶 USAGE & EXAMPLES
In the image below we can see how a trade setup could be created using Order Blocks w/ volume metrics to find points of interest in the market, swing / internal market structure to get indications of longer & shorter term reversals, and trend line liquidity zones to find more likely impulses & breakouts within trends.
We can see in the next image below that price came down to the highest volume order block marked out previously as our point of interest for an entry used in confluence with the overall market structure being bullish (swing CHoCH). Due to price closing below the middle Order Block at (24.77%), we saw it was mitigated, and then price revisited liquidity above the Trend Line zone above, leading us to the first Order Block as a target.
You will notice the % values adjust as Order Blocks are touched & mitigated, aligning with the correct volume detected when the Order Block was established.
In the image below we can see more features from within Price Action Concepts™ indicator, including Chart Pattern Liquidity, Fair Value Gaps (one of many Imbalance Concepts), Liquidity Grabs, as well as the primary market structures & OBs.
By using multiple features as such, users can develop a greater interpretation of where liquidity rests in the market, which allows them to develop trading plans a lot easier. Liquidity Grabs are highlighted as blue/red boxes on the wicks during specific price action that indicates the market has made an impulse specifically to take out resting buy or sell side orders.
We can notice in the trade demonstrated below (hindsight example) how price often moves to the areas of the most liquidity, even if unexpected according to classical technical analysis performed by retail traders such as chart patterns. Wicks to take out orders above & potentially trap traders are much more noticeable with features such as these.
The Chart Patterns which can be detected include:
Ascending/Descending Wedges (Asc/Desc Wedge)
Ascending/Descending Broadening Wedges (Asc/Desc BW)
Ascending/Descending/Symmetrical Triangles (Asc/Desc/Sym Triangle)
Double Tops/Bottoms (Double Top/Double BTM)
Head & Shoulders (H&S)
Inverted Head & Shoulders (IH&S)
General support & resistance during undetected patterns
In the image below we can see more features from within the indicator, including Balanced Price Range (another imbalance method similar to FVG), Market Structure Candle Coloring, Accumulation & Distribution zones, Premium & Discount zones w/ a percentage on each zone, the MTF dashboard, as well as the Previous Daily Highs & Lows (one of many highs/lows) displayed on the chart automatically.
The colored candles use more specific market structure analysis, specifically allowing users to visualize when trends are considered "normal" or "strong". By utilizing other features alongside this market structure analysis, such as noticing price retesting the PDL level + the Equilibrium as resistance, a Balanced Price Range below price, the discount with a high 72% metric, and the MTF dashboard displaying an overall bearish structure...
...users can instantly gain a deeper interpretation of price action, make highly confluent trading plans while avoiding classical technical indicators, and use traditional retail trading concepts such as chart patterns / trend lines to their advantage in finding logical areas of liquidity & points of interest in the market.
The image below shows the previous chart zoomed in with 2 liquidity concepts re-enabled & used alongside a new range targeting the same Discount zone.

Smart Money Decoded [GOLD]Title: Smart Money Decoded
Description:
Introduction
Smart Money Decoded is a comprehensive, institutional-grade visualization suite designed to simplify the complex world of Smart Money Concepts (SMC). While many indicators flood the chart with noise, this tool focuses on clarity, precision, and high-probability structure.
This script is built for traders who follow the "Inner Circle Trader" (ICT) methodologies but struggle to identify valid Zones, Displacement, and Liquidity Sweeps in real-time.
💎 Key Features & Logic
1. Refined Market Structure (BOS & CHoCH)
Instead of marking every minor pivot, this script uses a filtered Swing High/Low detection system.
HH/LL/LH/HL Labels: Only significant structure points are mapped.
BOS (Break of Structure): Marks trend continuations in the direction of the bias.
CHoCH (Change of Character): Marks potential trend reversals.
2. Advanced Order Blocks (with "Strict Mode")
Not all down-candles before an up-move are Order Blocks. This script separates the weak from the strong.
Standard OBs: Visualized with standard transparency.
⚡ SWEEP OBs (High Probability): Order Blocks that explicitly swept liquidity (Stop Hunt) before the reversal are highlighted with a thicker border, brighter color, and a ⚡ symbol. These are your high-probability "Turtle Soup" entries.
Strict Mode Toggle: In the settings, you can choose to hide all weak OBs and only see the ones that swept liquidity.
3. Dynamic Breaker Blocks
A true ICT Breaker is a failed Order Block that trapped liquidity.
This script automatically detects when a valid OB is mitigated (broken through) and projects it forward as a Breaker Block.
This ensures you are trading off valid flipped zones (Support becomes Resistance, Resistance becomes Support).
4. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Automatically detects Imbalances (Imbalance/Inefficiency).
Includes an ATR Filter to ignore tiny, insignificant gaps, keeping your chart clean.
Option to show the Consequent Encroachment (50% CE) level for precision entries.
5. Liquidity Zones (BSL / SSL)
Automatically plots Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) at key swing points.
Once price sweeps these levels, the zone is removed or marked as "Swept," helping you identify when the draw on liquidity has been met.
6. Institutional Data Panel
A dashboard in the top right corner displays:
Market Bias: Bullish/Bearish/Neutral based on structure.
Premium/Discount: Tells you if price is in the expensive (Premium) or cheap (Discount) part of the current dealing range.
Active Zones: Counts of current open arrays.
⚙️ How To Use This Indicator
Identify Bias: Look at the Structure Labels (HH/LL) and the Panel. Are we making Higher Highs?
Wait for the Trap: Look for a Liquidity Sweep (BSL/SSL taken) or a ⚡ Sweep OB.
Entry Confirmation: Watch for a return to a Fair Value Gap (FVG) or a retest of a Breaker Block (BRK).
Manage Risk: Use the visuals to place stops above/below invalidation points.
Customization:
Go to the settings to toggle "Strict Mode" for Order Blocks, change colors to match your theme, or adjust the lookback periods to fit your specific asset (Forex, Crypto, or Indices).

CandelaCharts - Turtle Soup Model📝 Overview
The ICT Turtle Soup Model indicator is a precision-engineered tool designed to identify high-probability reversal setups based on ICT’s renowned Turtle Soup strategy.
The Turtle Soup Model is a classic reversal setup that exploits false breakouts beyond previous swing highs or lows. It targets areas where retail traders are trapped into breakout trades, only for the price to reverse sharply in the opposite direction.
Price briefly breaks a previous high (for short setups) or low (for long setups), triggering stop orders and pulling in breakout traders. Once that liquidity is taken, smart money reverses price back inside the range, creating a high-probability fade setup.
📦 Features
Liquidity Levels: Projects forward-looking liquidity levels after a Turtle Soup model is formed, highlighting potential price targets. These projected zones act as magnet levels—areas where price is likely to reach based on the liquidity draw narrative. This allows traders to manage exits and partials with more precision.
Market Structure Shift (MSS): Confirms reversal strength by detecting a bullish or bearish MSS after a sweep. Acts as a secondary confirmation to filter out weak setups.
Custom TF Pairing: Choose your own combination of entry timeframe and context timeframe. For example, trade 5m setups inside a 1h HTF bias — perfect for aligning microstructure with macro intent.
HTF & LTF PD Arrays: Displays HTF PD Arrays (e.g., Fair Value Gaps, Inversion Fair Value Gaps) to serve as confluence zones.
History: Review and backtest past Turtle Soup setups directly on the chart. Toggle historical models on/off to study model behavior across different market conditions.
Killzone Filter: Limit signals to specific trading sessions or time blocks (e.g., New York AM, London, Asia, etc). Avoid signals in low-liquidity or choppy environments.
Standard Deviation: Calculates and projects four levels of standard deviation from the point of model confirmation. These zones help identify overextended moves, mean-reversion opportunities, and confluence with liquidity or PD arrays.
Dashboard: The dashboard displays the active model type, remaining time of the HTF candle, current bias, asset name, and date—providing real-time context and signal clarity at a glance.

💡 Framework
The Turtle Soup Model is designed to detect and interpret false breakout patterns by analyzing key price action components, each playing a vital role in identifying liquidity traps and generating actionable reversal signals.
The model incorporates the following timeframe pairing:
15s - 5m - 15m
1m - 5m - 1H
2m - 15m - 2H
3m - 30m - 3H
5m - 60m - 4H
15m - 1H - 8H
30m - 3H - 12H
1H - 4H - 1D
4H - 1D - 1W
1D - 1W - 1M
1W - 1M - 6M
1M - 6M - 12M
Below are the key components that make up the model:
Sweep
D-purge
MSS
Liquidity
Standard Deviation
HTF & LTF PD Arrays
The Turtle Soup Model operates through a defined lifecycle that identifies its current state and determines the validity of a trade opportunity.
The model's lifecycle includes the following statuses:
Formation (grey)
Invalidation (red)
Pre-Invalidation (purple)
Success (green)
By incorporating the phases of Formation, Invalidation, and Success, traders can effectively manage risk, optimize position handling, and capitalize on the high-probability opportunities presented by the Turtle Soup Model.
⚡️ Showcase
Introducing the Turtle Soup Model — a powerful trading tool engineered to detect high-probability false breakout reversals. This indicator helps you pinpoint liquidity sweeps, confirm market structure shifts, and identify precise entry and exit points, enabling more confident, informed, and timely trading decisions.
LTF PD Array
LTF PD Arrays are essential for model formation—a valid Turtle Soup setup will only trigger if a qualifying LTF PD Array is present near the sweep zone.
HTF PD Array
HTF PD Arrays provide macro-level context and are used to validate the direction and strength of the potential reversal.
Timeframe Alignment
In the Turtle Soup trading model, timeframe alignment is an essential structural component. The model relies on multi-timeframe context to identify high-probability reversal setups based on failed breakouts.
High-Probability Model
A high-probability setup forms when key elements align: a Sweep, Market Structure Shift (MSS), LTF and HTF PD Arrays.
Killzone Filters
Filter Turtle Soup Models based on key market sessions: Asia, London, New York AM, New York Launch, and New York PM . This allows you to focus on high-liquidity periods where smart money activity is most likely to occur, improving both the quality and timing of your trade setups.
Unlock your trading edge with the Turtle Soup Model — your go-to tool for sharper insights, smarter decisions, and more confident execution in the markets.
🚨 Alerts
This script offers alert options for all model types. The alerts need to be set up manually from TradingView.
Bearish Model
A bearish model alert is triggered when a model forms, signaling a high sweep, MS,S and LTF PD Array.
Bullish Model
A bullish model alert is triggered when a model forms, signaling a low sweep, MSS and LTF PD Array.

RSI Analysis with Statistical Summary Scientific Analysis of the Script "RSI Analysis with Statistical Summary"
Introduction
I observed that there are outliers in the price movement liquidity, and I wanted to understand the RSI value at those points and whether there are any notable patterns. I aimed to analyze this statistically, and this script is the result.
Explanation of Key Terms
1. Outliers in Price Movement Liquidity: An outlier is a data point that significantly deviates from other values. In this context, an outlier refers to an unusually high or low liquidity of price movement, which is the ratio of trading volume to the price difference between the open and close prices. These outliers can signal important market changes or unusual trading activities.
2. RSI (Relative Strength Index): The RSI is a technical indicator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It ranges from 0 to 100 and helps identify overbought or oversold conditions of a trading instrument. An RSI value above 70 indicates an overbought condition, while a value below 30 suggests an oversold condition.
3. Mean: The mean is a measure of the average of a dataset. It is calculated by dividing the sum of all values by the number of values. In this script, the mean of the RSI values is calculated to provide a central tendency of the RSI distribution.
4. Standard Deviation (stdev): The standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion or variation of a dataset. It shows how much the values deviate from the mean. A high standard deviation indicates that the values are widely spread, while a low standard deviation indicates that the values are close to the mean.
5. 68% Confidence Interval: A confidence interval indicates the range within which a certain percentage of values of a dataset lies. The 68% confidence interval corresponds to a range of plus/minus one standard deviation around the mean. It indicates that about 68% of the data points lie within this range, providing insight into the distribution of values.
Overview
This Pine Script™, written in Pine version 5, is designed to analyze the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of a stock or other trading instrument and create statistical summaries of the distribution of RSI values. The script identifies outliers in price movement liquidity and uses this information to calculate the frequency of RSI values. At the end, it displays a statistical summary in the form of a table.
Structure and Functionality of the Script
1. Input Parameters
- `rsi_len`: An integer input parameter that defines the length of the RSI (default: 14).
- `outlierThreshold`: An integer input parameter that defines the length of the outlier threshold (default: 10).
2. Calculating Price Movement Liquidity
- `priceMovementLiquidity`: The volume is divided by the absolute difference between the close and open prices to calculate the liquidity of the price movement.
3. Determining the Boundary for Liquidity and Identifying Outliers
- `liquidityBoundary`: The boundary is calculated using the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the price movement liquidity and its standard deviation.
- `outlier`: A boolean value that indicates whether the price movement liquidity exceeds the set boundary.
4. Calculating the RSI
- `rsi`: The RSI is calculated with a period length of 14, using various moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA) depending on the settings.
5. Storing and Limiting RSI Values
- An array `rsiFrequency` stores the frequency of RSI values from 0 to 100.
- The function `f_limit_rsi` limits the RSI values between 0 and 100.
6. Updating RSI Frequency on Outlier Occurrence
- On an outlier occurrence, the limited and rounded RSI value is updated in the `rsiFrequency` array.
7. Statistical Summary
- Various variables (`mostFrequentRsi`, `leastFrequentRsi`, `maxCount`, `minCount`, `sum`, `sumSq`, `count`, `upper_interval`, `lower_interval`) are initialized to perform statistical analysis.
- At the last bar (`bar_index == last_bar_index`), a loop is run to determine the most and least frequent RSI values and their frequencies. Sum and sum of squares of RSI values are also updated for calculating mean and standard deviation.
- The mean (`mean`) and standard deviation (`stddev`) are calculated. Additionally, a 68% confidence interval is determined.
8. Creating a Table for Result Display
- A table `resultsTable` is created and filled with the results of the statistical analysis. The table includes the most and least frequent RSI values, the standard deviation, and the 68% confidence interval.
9. Graphical Representation
- The script draws horizontal lines and fills to indicate overbought and oversold regions of the RSI.
Interpretation of the Results
The script provides a detailed analysis of RSI values based on specific liquidity outliers. By calculating the most and least frequent RSI values, standard deviation, and confidence interval, it offers a comprehensive statistical summary that can help traders identify patterns and anomalies in the RSI. This can be particularly useful for identifying overbought or oversold conditions of a trading instrument and making informed trading decisions.
Critical Evaluation
1. Robustness of Outlier Identification: The method of identifying outliers is solely based on the liquidity of price movement. It would be interesting to examine whether other methods or additional criteria for outlier identification would lead to similar or improved results.
2. Flexibility of RSI Settings: The ability to select various moving averages and period lengths for the RSI enhances the adaptability of the script, allowing users to tailor it to their specific trading strategies.
3. Visualization of Results: While the tabular representation is useful, additional graphical visualizations, such as histograms of RSI distribution, could further facilitate the interpretation of the results.
In conclusion, this script provides a solid foundation for analyzing RSI values by considering liquidity outliers and enables detailed statistical evaluation that can be beneficial for various trading strategies.
Fractal Consolidations [Pro+]Introduction:
Fractal Consolidations Pro+ pushes the boundaries of Algorithmic Price Delivery Analysis. Tailored for traders seeking precision and efficiency to unlock hidden insights, this tool empowers you to dissect market Consolidations on your terms, live, in all asset classes.
What is a Fractal Consolidation?
Consolidations occur when price is trading in a range. Normally, Consolidation scripts use a static number of "lookback candles", checking whether price is continuously trading inside the highest and lowest price points of said Time window.
After years spent studying price action and numerous programming attempts, this tool succeeds in veering away from the lookback candle approach. This Consolidation script harnesses the delivery mechanisms and Time principles of the Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm (IPDA) to define Fractal Consolidations – solely based on a Timeframe Input used for context.
Description:
This concept was engineered around price delivery principles taught by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT). As per ICT, it's integral for an Analyst to understand the four phases of price delivery: Consolidation , Expansion , Retracement , and Reversal .
According to ICT, any market movement originates from a Consolidation, followed by an Expansion .
When Consolidation ranges begin to break and resting liquidity is available, cleaner Expansions will take place. This tool's value is to visually aid Analysts and save Time in finding Consolidations in live market conditions, to take advantage of Expansion moves.

Fractal Consolidations Pro+ doesn't only assist in confirming Higher Timeframe trend continuations and exposing opportunities on Lower Timeframes. It's also designed for both advanced traders and new traders to save Time and energy in navigating choppy or rangebound environments.
CME_MINI:ES1! 30 Minute Consolidation forming Live, on the 5 Minute Chart:
By analyzing past price action, traders will find algorithmic signatures when Consolidations are taking place, therefore providing a clearer view of where and when price is likely to contract, continue consolidating, breakout, retrace, or reverse. A prominent signature to consider when using this script is ICT's Market Maker Buy/Sell Models. These signatures revolve around the engineering of Consolidations to manipulate price in a specific direction, to then reverse at the appropriate Time. Each stage of the Market Maker Model can be identified and taken advantage of using Fractal Consolidations.

Titan VSA + SMC Prime (Professional Institutional System)Titan VSA + SMC Prime is a comprehensive, hybrid trading system designed to bridge the gap between Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) By Sultan of Multan. This script is built for traders who want to identify institutional activity, spot liquidity traps, and trade in harmony with the "Smart Money."
Unlike standard indicators that repaint or lag, Titan Prime focuses on price action, structural shifts, and volume anomalies to generate high-probability setups.
🔥 Key Features
1. Smart Money Concepts (SMC) Suite
Market Structure: Automatically maps BOS (Break of Structure) and CHoCH (Change of Character) with real-time trend identification (Bullish/Bearish).
Institutional Zones: clearly plots Order Blocks (OB), Breaker Blocks (BB), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), and Supply/Demand Zones.
Mitigation Tracking: Zones are automatically marked as "Mitigated" or removed once price has tested them, keeping your chart clean.
Premium & Discount Zones: Automatically draws the Equilibrium (EQ) to help you sell in Premium and buy in Discount areas.
2. Advanced Liquidity & Traps
Liquidity Sweeps (⚔): Identifies when key Highs or Lows are swept to grab liquidity.
Inducement (IDM 🪤): Highlights short-term highs/lows that act as "traps" for retail traders before the real move occurs. This helps you avoid false breakouts.
3. Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) Engine
Volume Bar Coloring: Candles are color-coded based on volume intensity:
🟨 Yellow: Ultra High Volume (Institutional Activity).
⬜ Gray: Low Volume (Lack of interest).
VSA Signals: Automatically detects powerful VSA patterns including:
No Demand (ND) / No Supply (NS)
Stopping Volume & Climaxes (SC/BC)
UpThrusts (UT) & Springs
Effort to Rise / Fall
Absorption
4. The "Smart Entry" System
This is the core of the indicator. It does not spam signals. It waits for a specific institutional sequence:
Liquidity Sweep: Price grabs liquidity.
Displacement: Price reverses aggressively.
Retest: The system waits for a pullback to the Order Block or FVG.
Confirmation: Only then does it display a "RETEST COMPLETE ✅ - SMART ENTRY" label with suggested TP/SL levels.
5. Professional Dashboards
Trade Status Panel (Top-Right): Monitors active signals, Entry, Stop Loss, Take Profit, and VSA Trend Score.
SMC Status Panel (Bottom-Right): A live scanner showing the status of Supply/Demand, FVGs, Structure, and overall Market Bias at a glance.
How to Use
Identify Trend: Use the dashboard to check if the market structure is Bullish or Bearish.
Wait for Traps: Look for IDM or Liquidity Sweep (⚔) labels. Smart moves usually happen after these traps.
Entry Confirmation: Do not enter blindly. Wait for the "RETEST COMPLETE" label which confirms that price has respected a Smart Money Zone.
Confluence: The best trades occur when an SMC Zone aligns with a VSA Signal (e.g., A Buying Climax inside a Demand Zone).
Customization
Visual Control: Fully adjustable text sizes, colors, and box lengths to fit your charting style.
Zoom Stability: Labels and text are pinned to ensure they remain readable when zooming in or out.

Pressure Pivots - MPIPressure Pivots - MPI
A multi-factor reversal detection system built on a proprietary Market Pressure Index (MPI) that combines institutional order flow analysis, liquidity dynamics, and momentum exhaustion to identify high-probability pivot points with automated win rate validation.
What This System Does
This indicator solves the core challenge of reversal trading: distinguishing genuine exhaustion pivots from temporary retracements. It combines six independent detection mechanisms—divergence, liquidity sweeps, order flow imbalance, wick rejection, volume surges, and velocity exhaustion—weighted by reliability and unified through a custom pressure oscillator.
Three-Layer Architecture:
Layer 1 - Market Pressure Index (MPI): Proprietary volume-weighted pressure oscillator that measures buying vs. selling pressure using proportional intrabar allocation and dual-timeframe normalization (-1.0 to +1.0 range).
Layer 2 - Weighted Confluence Engine: Six detection factors scored hierarchically (divergence: 3.0 pts, liquidity: 2.5 pts, order flow: 2.0 pts, velocity: 1.5 pts, wick: 1.5 pts, volume: 1.0 pt). Premium signals (DIV/LIQ/OF) require 6.0+ score, standard signals (STD) require 4.0+ score.
Layer 3 - Automated Win Rate Validation: Every signal tracked forward and validated against actual pivot formation within 10-bar window. Real-time performance statistics displayed by signal type and direction.
The Market Pressure Index - Original Calculation
What MPI Measures: The balance of aggressive buying vs. aggressive selling within each bar, smoothed and normalized to create a continuous oscillator.
Calculation Methodology:
Step 1: Intrabar Pressure Decomposition
Buy Pressure = Volume × (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
Sell Pressure = Volume × (High - Close) / (High - Low)
Net Pressure = Buy Pressure - Sell Pressure
Step 2: Exponential Smoothing
Smooth Pressure = EMA(Net Pressure, 14)
Step 3: Normalization
Avg Absolute Pressure = SMA(|Net Pressure|, 28)
MPI Raw = Smooth Pressure / Avg Absolute Pressure
Step 4: Sensitivity Amplification
MPI = clamp(MPI Raw × 1.5, -1.0, +1.0)
Why This Is Different:
• vs. RSI: RSI measures price momentum without volume context. MPI integrates volume magnitude and distribution within each bar.
• vs. OBV: OBV uses binary classification (up bar = buy volume). MPI uses proportional allocation based on close position within range.
• vs. Money Flow Index: MFI uses typical price × volume. MPI uses intrabar positioning, revealing pressure balance regardless of bar-to-bar movement.
• vs. VWAP: VWAP shows average price. MPI shows directional pressure balance (who controls the bar).
MPI Interpretation:
• +0.7 to +1.0: Extreme buying pressure (strong uptrends, potential exhaustion)
• +0.3 to +0.7: Moderate buying pressure (healthy uptrends)
• -0.3 to +0.3: Neutral/balanced (ranging, consolidation)
• -0.7 to -0.3: Moderate selling pressure (healthy downtrends)
• -1.0 to -0.7: Extreme selling pressure (strong downtrends, potential exhaustion)
Critical Insight: MPI at extremes indicates pressure exhaustion risk , not automatic reversal. Reversals occur when extreme MPI coincides with confluence factors.
Six Confluence Factors - Detection Arsenal
1. Divergence Detection (Weight: 3.0 - Highest Priority)
Detects: Price making higher highs while MPI makes lower highs (bearish), or price making lower lows while MPI makes higher lows (bullish).
Why It Matters: Reveals weakening pressure behind price moves. Declining participation signals potential reversal.
Signal Type: Premium (DIV) - Historically highest win rates.
2. Liquidity Sweep Detection (Weight: 2.5)
Detects: Price penetrates recent swing high/low (triggering stops), then immediately reverses and closes back inside range.
Calculation: High breaks swing high by <0.3× ATR but closes below it (bearish), or low breaks swing low by <0.3× ATR but closes above it (bullish).
Why It Matters: Stop hunts mark institutional accumulation/distribution zones. Often pinpoints exact pivot points.
Signal Type: Premium (LIQ) - Extremely reliable with volume confirmation.
3. Order Flow Imbalance (Weight: 2.0)
Detects: Aggressive directional ordering where price consistently closes in upper/lower third of bars with elevated volume.
Calculation:
Close Position = (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
Aggressive Buy = Volume when Close Position > 0.65
Aggressive Sell = Volume when Close Position < 0.35
Imbalance = EMA(Aggressive Buy, 5) - EMA(Aggressive Sell, 5)
Strong Flow = |Imbalance| > 1.5 × Average
Why It Matters: Reveals institutional accumulation/distribution footprints before directional moves.
Signal Type: Premium (OF)
4. Wick Rejection Patterns (Weight: 1.5)
Detects: Pin bars, hammers, shooting stars where wick exceeds 60% of total bar range.
Why It Matters: Large wicks demonstrate failed attempts to push price, indicating strong opposition.
5. Volume Spike Detection (Weight: 1.0)
Detects: Volume exceeding 2× the 20-bar average.
Why It Matters: Confirms institutional participation vs. retail noise. Most effective when combined with wick rejection or liquidity sweeps.
6. Velocity Exhaustion (Weight: 1.5)
Detects: Parabolic moves (velocity >2.0× ATR over 3 bars) showing deceleration while MPI at extremes.
Calculation:
Velocity = Change(Close, 3) / ATR(14)
Exhaustion = |Velocity| > 2.0 AND MPI > |0.5| AND Velocity Slowing
Why It Matters: Extended moves are unsustainable. Momentum deceleration from extremes precedes reversals.
Signal Classification & Scoring
Weighted Confluence Scoring:
Each factor contributes points when present. Signals fire when total score exceeds thresholds:
Bearish Example:
+ At recent high (1.0)
+ Bearish divergence (3.0)
+ Wick rejection (1.5)
+ Volume spike (1.0)
+ Velocity slowing (1.5)
= 8.0 total score → BEARISH DIV SIGNAL
Bullish Example:
+ At recent low (1.0)
+ Liquidity sweep (2.5)
+ Strong buy flow (2.0)
+ Wick rejection (1.5)
= 7.0 total score → BULLISH LIQ SIGNAL
Dual Threshold System:
• Premium Signals (DIV/LIQ/OF): Require 6.0+ points. Must include divergence, liquidity sweep, or order flow. Higher win rates.
• Standard Signals (STD): Require 4.0+ points. No premium factors. More frequent, moderate win rates.
Visual Signal Color-Coding:
• Purple Triangle: DIV (Divergence signal)
• Orange Triangle: LIQ (Liquidity sweep signal)
• Aqua Triangle: OF (Order flow signal)
• Red/Green Triangle: STD (Standard signal)
• Yellow Diamond: Warning (setup forming, not confirmed)
Warning System - Early Alerts
Yellow diamond warnings fire when 2+ factors present but full confluence not met:
• At recent 10-bar high/low
• Wick rejection present
• Volume spike present
• MPI extreme or accelerating/decelerating
Critical: Warnings are NOT trade signals. They indicate potential setups forming. Wait for colored triangle confirmation.
Win Rate Validation - Transparent Performance Tracking
How It Works:
Signal Storage: Every signal recorded (bar index, price, type, direction)
Pivot Confirmation: System monitors next 10 bars for confirmed pivot formation at signal price (±2%)
Validation: If pivot forms within window → Win. If not → Loss.
Statistics: Win Rate = Validated Signals / Total Mature Signals × 100
Dashboard Displays:
• Overall win rate with visual bar
• Bearish signal win rate
• Bullish signal win rate
• Win rate by signal type (DIV/LIQ/OF/STD)
• Wins/Total for each category
Why This Matters:
After 30-50 signals, you'll know exactly which patterns work on your instrument:
Example Performance Analysis:
Overall: 58% (35/60)
Bearish: 52% | Bullish: 65%
DIV: 72% | LIQ: 68% | OF: 50% | STD: 38%
Insight: Focus on bullish DIV/LIQ signals (72%/68% win rate), avoid STD signals (38%), investigate bearish underperformance.
This transforms the indicator from signal generator to learning system.

• Position Size: Risk 0.5-2% of capital per trade
• Take Profit: 2-3× ATR or next structural level
Performance Analysis (After 30-50 Signals)
Review Dashboard Statistics:
Overall Win Rate:
• Target >50% for profitability with 1:1.5+ RR
• <45% = system may not suit instrument
• >65% = consider tightening thresholds
Directional Analysis:
• Bullish >> Bearish = uptrend bias, avoid counter-trend shorts
• Bearish >> Bullish = downtrend bias, avoid counter-trend longs
Signal Type Ranking:
• Focus on highest win rate types (typically DIV/LIQ)
• If STD <40% = raise threshold or ignore STD signals
• If premium type <50% = investigate (may need parameter adjustment)
Optimize Settings:
• Too many weak signals → Raise thresholds (premium 7.0-8.0, standard 5.0-6.0)
• Too few signals → Lower thresholds or reduce detection strictness
• Adjust factor weights based on what appears in winning signals
What Makes This Original
1. Proprietary Market Pressure Index
Unique Methodology:
• Proportional intrabar allocation: Unlike binary volume classification (OBV), MPI uses close position within range for proportional pressure assignment
• Dual-timeframe normalization: EMA smoothing (14) + SMA normalization (28) for responsiveness with context
• Bounded oscillator with sensitivity control: -1 to +1 range enables cross-instrument comparison while sensitivity allows customization
• Active signal integration: MPI drives divergence detection, extreme requirements, exhaustion confirmation (not just display)
vs. Existing Indicators:
• MFI uses typical price × volume (different pressure measure)
• CMF accumulates over time (not bounded oscillator)
• OBV is cumulative and binary (not proportional or normalized)
2. Hierarchical Confluence Engine
Why Simple Mashups Fail: Most multi-indicator systems create decision paralysis (RSI says sell, MACD says buy).
This System's Solution:
• Six factors weighted by reliability (3.0 down to 1.0)
• Dual thresholds (premium 6.0, standard 4.0)
• Automatic signal triage by quality tier
• Color-coded visual prioritization
Orthogonal Detection: Each factor detects different failure mode:
• Divergence = momentum exhaustion
• Liquidity = institutional manipulation
• Order Flow = smart money positioning
• Wick = supply/demand rejection
• Volume = participation confirmation
• Velocity = parabolic exhaustion
Complementary, not redundant. Weighted synthesis creates unified confidence measure.
3. Self-Validating Performance System
The Problem: Most indicators never reveal actual performance. Traders never know if it works on their instrument.
This Solution:
• Forward-looking validation (signals tracked to pivot confirmation)
• Pivot-based success criteria (objective, mechanical)
• Segmented statistics (by direction and type)
• Real-time dashboard updates
Result: After 30-50 signals, you have statistically meaningful data on what actually works on your specific market. Transforms indicator into adaptive learning system.
Technical Notes
No Repainting:
• All signals use confirmed bar data (closed bars only)
• Pivot detection has inherent lookback lag (5 bars)
• Divergence lines drawn after confirmation (retroactive visualization)
• Signals fire on bar close
Forward-Looking Disclosure:
• Win rate validation looks forward 10 bars for pivot confirmation
• Creates forward bias in statistics , not signal generation
• Real-time performance may differ until validation period elapses
Lookback Limits:
• Fibonacci/S/R: Limited by limitDrawBars (default 100)
• MPI calculation: 28 bars maximum
• Signal storage: 20 per direction (configurable)
Visual Limits:
• Max lines/labels/boxes: 500 each
• Auto-clearing prevents overflow
Limitations & Disclaimers
Not a Complete Trading System:
• Does not provide stop loss, take profit, or position sizing
• Requires trader risk management and market context analysis
Reversal Bias:
• Designed specifically for reversal trading
• Not optimized for trend continuation or breakouts
Learning Period:
• Statistics meaningless until 20-30 mature signals
• Preferably 50+ for statistical confidence
Instrument Dependency:
• Best: Liquid instruments (major forex, large-caps, BTC/ETH)
• Poor: Illiquid small-caps, low-volume altcoins (order flow unreliable)
Timeframe Dependency:
• Optimal: 15m - 4H charts
• Not Recommended: <5m (noise) or >Daily (insufficient signals)
No Guarantee of Profit:
• Win rate >50% does not guarantee profitability (depends on RR, sizing, execution)
• Past performance ≠ future performance
• All trading involves risk of loss
Warning Signals:
• Warnings are NOT trade signals
• Trading warnings produces lower win rates
• For preparation only

Volume Cluster Heatmap [BackQuant]Volume Cluster Heatmap
A visualization tool that maps traded volume across price levels over a chosen lookback period. It highlights where the market builds balance through heavy participation and where it moves efficiently through low-volume zones. By combining a heatmap, volume profile, and high/low volume node detection, this indicator reveals structural areas of support, resistance, and liquidity that drive price behavior.
What Are Volume Clusters?
A volume cluster is a horizontal aggregation of traded volume at specific price levels, showing where market participants concentrated their buying and selling.
High Volume Nodes (HVN) : Price levels with significant trading activity; often act as support or resistance.
Low Volume Nodes (LVN) : Price levels with little trading activity; price moves quickly through these areas, reflecting low liquidity.
Volume clusters help identify key structural zones, reveal potential reversals, and gauge market efficiency by highlighting where the market is balanced versus areas of thin liquidity.
By creating heatmaps, profiles, and highlighting high and low volume nodes (HVNs and LVNs), it allows traders to see where the market builds balance and where it moves efficiently through thin liquidity zones.
Example: Bitcoin breaking away from the high-volume zone near 118k and moving cleanly through the low-volume pocket around 113k–115k, illustrating how markets seek efficiency:
Core Features
Visual Analysis Components:
Heatmap Display : Displays volume intensity as colored boxes, lines, or a combination for a dynamic view of market participation.
Volume Profile Overlay : Shows cumulative volume per price level along the right-hand side of the chart.
HVN & LVN Labels : Marks high and low volume nodes with color-coded lines and labels.
Customizable Colors & Transparency : Adjust high and low volume colors and minimum transparency for clear differentiation.
Session Reset & Timeframe Control : Dynamically resets clusters at the start of new sessions or chosen timeframes (intraday, daily, weekly).
Alerts
HVN / LVN Alerts : Notify when price reaches a significant high or low volume node.
High Volume Zone Alerts : Trigger when price enters the top X% of cumulative volume, signaling key areas of market interest.
How It Works
Each bar’s volume is distributed proportionally across the horizontal price levels it touches. Over the lookback period, this builds a cumulative volume profile, identifying price levels with the most and least trading activity. The highest cumulative volume levels become HVNs, while the lowest are LVNs. A side volume profile shows aggregated volume per level, and a heatmap overlay visually reinforces market structure.
Applications for Traders
Identify strong support and resistance at HVNs.
Detect areas of low liquidity where price may move quickly (LVNs).
Determine market balance zones where price may consolidate.
Filter noise: because volume clusters aggregate activity into levels, minor fluctuations and irrelevant micro-moves are removed, simplifying analysis and improving strategy development.
Combine with other indicators such as VWAP, Supertrend, or CVD for higher-probability entries and exits.
Use volume clusters to anticipate price reactions to breaking points in thin liquidity zones.
Advanced Display Options
Heatmap Styles : Boxes, lines, or both. Boxes provide a traditional heatmap, lines are better for high granularity data.
Line Mode Example : Simplified line visualization for easier reading at high level counts:
Profile Width & Offset : Adjust spacing and placement of the volume profile for clarity alongside price.
Transparency Control : Lower transparency for more opaque visualization of high-volume zones.
Best Practices for Usage
Reduce the number of levels when using line mode to avoid clutter.
Use HVN and LVN markers in conjunction with volume profiles to plan entries and exits.
Apply session resets to monitor intraday vs. multi-day volume accumulation.
Combine with other technical indicators to confirm high-probability trading signals.
Watch price interactions with LVNs for potential rapid movements and with HVNs for possible support/resistance or reversals.
Technical Notes
Each bar contributes volume proportionally to the price levels it spans, creating a dynamic and accurate representation of traded interest.
Volume profiles are scaled and offset for visual clarity alongside live price.
Alerts are fully integrated for HVN/LVN interaction and high-volume zone entries.
Optimized to handle large lookback windows and numerous price levels efficiently without performance degradation.
This indicator is ideal for understanding market structure, detecting key liquidity areas, and filtering out noise to model price more accurately in high-frequency or algorithmic strategies.
Opening Range Gaps [TakingProphets]What is an Opening Range Gap (ORG)?
In ICT, the Opening Range Gap is defined as the price difference between the previous session’s close (e.g., 4:00 PM EST in U.S. indices) and the current day’s open (9:30 AM EST).
That gap is a liquidity void—an area where no trading occurred during regular hours.
Why ICT Traders Care About ORG
Liquidity Void (Gap Fill Logic)
-Because the gap is an untraded area, it naturally acts as a draw on liquidity.
-Price often seeks to rebalance by retracing into or fully filling this void.
Premium/Discount Sensitivity
-Once the ORG is defined, ICT treats it as a mini dealing range.
-Above EQ (Consequent Encroachment) = algorithmic premium (sell-sensitive).
-Below EQ = algorithmic discount (buy-sensitive).
-Price reaction at these levels gives a precise read on institutional intent intraday.
Support/Resistance from ORG
-If the session opens above prior close, the gap often acts as support until violated.
-If the session opens below prior close, the gap often acts as resistance until reclaimed.
Key ICT Concepts Anchored to ORG
Consequent Encroachment (CE): The midpoint of the gap. The algo is highly sensitive to CE as a decision point: reject → continuation; reclaim → reversal.
Draw on Liquidity (DoL): Price is algorithmically “pulled” toward gap fills, CE, or the opposite side of the ORG.
Order Flow Confirmation: If price ignores the gap and runs away from it, this signals strong institutional order flow in that direction.
Confluence with Other Tools: FVGs, OBs, and HTF PD arrays often overlap with ORG levels, strengthening setups.
Practical Application for Traders
Bias Formation:
Use ORG EQ as a line in the sand for intraday bias.
If price trades below ORG EQ after the open → look for short setups into the prior day’s low or external liquidity.
If price trades above ORG EQ → favor longs into highs/liquidity pools.
Execution Framework:
Wait for liquidity raids or market structure shifts at ORG edges (.00, .25, .50, .75).
Target: EQ, opposite quarter, or full gap fill.
Precision Reads:
ORG lines let traders anticipate where algorithms are likely to respond, providing mechanical invalidation and clear targets without clutter.
Rapid HTF Price Action DashboardRapid HTF Price Action Dashboard V2.0
Overview
Stop the constant switching between timeframes. The Rapid HTF Price Action Dashboard is an all-in-one analysis suite designed to give you a crystal-clear view of the market's true intent by projecting critical higher-timeframe (HTF) data directly onto your trading chart.
This tool is more than just a pattern indicator; it's a complete dashboard that provides institutional-grade insights into price action. It helps you anticipate market moves by showing you where liquidity lies and how the bigger players are positioning themselves, all from the comfort of your lower-timeframe chart.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Dashboard: A clean, intuitive panel on the right of your chart displays the last two closed higher-timeframe candles (Candle A & B) and the live, developing one (Candle C).
Projected HTF Levels: Automatically draws and projects the previous HTF candle's high and low across your chart, acting as critical dynamic support and resistance levels.
Advanced Pattern Recognition: Identifies seven high-conviction candlestick patterns based on our proprietary filtering system, designed to eliminate noise and pinpoint only the most potent signals.
The Logic: Why Our Signals Are More Accurate
This indicator goes far beyond textbook definitions. We don't just look for shapes; we look for the story behind the price action. Each pattern is filtered through a rigorous set of conditions to ensure it represents true market conviction.
Hammers & Inverted Hammers: The Liquidity Grab
Classic Hammer/IH patterns are often misleading. Ours are different. We identify them as true liquidity grab signals, a core concept used in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodologies.
A Hammer (H) is only valid if its low wick has pierced below the low of the previous candle (low < low ). This signifies a "stop hunt" where liquidity was absorbed below a key level before buyers aggressively pushed the price up.
An Inverted Hammer (IH) is only valid if its high wick has pierced above the high of the previous candle (high > high ). This shows liquidity was taken above a prior high before sellers took control and suppressed the price.
Harami: Filtering for Conviction
A classic Harami (an inside bar) can often just be a weak doji, signaling indecision. We filter this noise out.
Our Harami signal (BeH, BuH) requires the inside candle to have a meaningful body (defaulting to 30% of its own range, but fully customizable).
Furthermore, we have enhanced the logic to ensure the body of the inside candle is strictly contained within the body of the previous candle, making it a more precise and reliable signal of consolidation before a potential expansion.
Power Engulfing: A Signal of Overwhelming Force
We don't flag just any engulfing candle. We look for true displacement and momentum.
Our Power Engulfing pattern (BE, BuE) requires the body of the current candle to completely engulf the body of the previous candle.
Crucially, it must also close decisively beyond the entire range (including the wick) of the previous candle. A Bullish Engulfing must close above the previous high, and a Bearish Engulfing must close below the previous low. This confirms overwhelming force has entered the market and a reversal is highly probable.
How to Use the Dashboard
Set Your Reference Timeframe (refTF): Choose the higher timeframe you want to analyze (e.g., "240" for 4-Hour).
Identify the Narrative: Use the projected High/Low lines as your key support and resistance zones. A primary strategy is to wait for price to interact with these levels.
Anticipate the Draw on Liquidity: Watch as price approaches the previous HTF high or low. The dashboard helps you predict the market's next move. For example, if price is trading below the previous HTF low, you can anticipate a potential sweep of that level.
Confirm with a Signal: When a signal like a Hammer (H) appears on the dashboard after sweeping the previous low, it provides high-conviction confirmation that liquidity has been taken and price is ready to reverse.
Ultra VolumeVisualizes volume intensity using dynamic color gradients and percentile thresholds. Includes optional SMA, bar coloring, and adaptive liquidity boxes to highlight high- and low-volume zones in real time.
Introduction
The Ultra Volume indicator enhances volume analysis by categorizing volume bars into percentile-based intensity levels. It uses color-coded gradients to quickly identify periods of unusually high or low activity. The script also includes an optional simple moving average (SMA), bar coloring, and visual box overlays to highlight zones of significant liquidity shifts.
Detailed Description
.........
Volume Classification
Volume is segmented into five tiers: Extra High, High, Medium, Normal, and Low, using percentile ranks calculated over a dynamically adjusted historical window. This segmentation adapts based on the chart's timeframe – using 100 bars for daily and 1440/minutes for intraday – allowing for consistent behavior across resolutions.
.....
Color Gradients
Each volume bar is colored based on its percentile category, smoothly transitioning between thresholds for visual clarity. This makes it easy to spot volume spikes or droughts relative to recent history.
.....
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
An optional SMA can be plotted on top of the volume bars for trend comparison and baseline reference. Its length and color are fully customizable.
.....
Bar Coloring
You can optionally color the chart's candlesticks to reflect the same volume intensity as the histogram bars, reinforcing visual cues across the chart.
.....
Liquidity Boxes
Two adaptive box systems highlight zones of increased or decreased liquidity:
High Liquidity Boxes expand upward when price exceeds the previous box’s top.
Low Liquidity Boxes expand downward when price breaks the previous box’s bottom.
These boxes persist and auto-adjust over time unless reset, helping traders spot key zones of volume-driven price action.
.....
Box Indexing
A configurable index shift determines how far back in the chart the boxes originate. Setting this to 501 makes them "stick" to the candle where they were first created.
.....
Data Handling
A safety check ensures the script throws an error if volume data is unavailable (e.g., for some crypto or CFD symbols).
.........
Summary
Ultra Volume is a practical tool for traders who want more than just raw volume bars. With intelligent percentile-based classification, real-time adaptive liquidity zones, and fully customizable visual elements, it turns volume into a highly readable, actionable signal.

The Fractal Range Model follows a specific lifecycle, which highlights the current state of the model and determines whether a trade opportunity is valid.
The model's lifecycle includes the following statuses:
Formation (grey)
Invalidation (red)
Success (green)
1. Formation
The Formation phase marks the initial setup of the Fractal Range Model. During this stage, the model identifies and plots key components, such as:
Sweeps: Market movements that indicate a potential reversal or strong shift in trend.
CISD (Change In State of Delivery): A structural change that provides insight into trend shifts.
Once these components are detected, the model automatically calculates and displays Projections and Liquidity Levels , offering insights into potential price action movements.
At this stage, the model also identifies and displays the following key elements:
HTF PD Arrays (Higher-Timeframe Price Delivery Arrays)
LTF PD Arrays (Lower-Timeframe Price Delivery Arrays)
Smart Money Technique (SMT)
If any of these elements are present, they will be automatically displayed on the chart.
2. Invalidation
A Fractal Range Model is considered invalidated when the price does not reach the 2 Standard Deviation level or the first identified liquidity level, and when the price breaks above the high that formed the Sweep.
Invalidation signals that the original setup is no longer reliable, and traders should avoid taking action based on the model's original parameters.
Key invalidation conditions:
Price fails to reach the 2 Standard Deviation level.
Price fails to reach the first liquidity level.
Price breaks the high/low that initiated the Sweep.
A potentially invalidated model is marked with a purple color above the label, indicating the sweep is invalidated by the next candle, but not the high that formed the sweep.
3. Success
A Fractal Range Model is considered successful when the price reaches the 2 Standard Deviation level or the first identified liquidity level. This indicates that the model's predictions align with actual market movements, confirming the setup's validity and providing a potential trading signal.
At this stage, alongside Projections and Liquidity levels, you'll also notice the C-area — the region between the current candle's open and the previous candle's mean. If respected, price action will follow the model's direction.
Key success conditions:
Price reaches the 2 Standard Deviation level.
Price reaches the first liquidity level.
By leveraging these phases, Formation, Invalidation, and Success, traders can effectively manage their positions, minimize risk, and capitalize on high-probability setups based on the Fractal Range Model.

Big Whale Finder (BWF)The Big Whale Finder (BWF) indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to detect large, hidden orders in financial markets. These orders, often placed by institutional traders or "whales," are significant in size but executed in a way that minimizes their impact on the market price.
This tool uses volume-based analysis to identify these orders, focusing on the detection of unusual volume spikes occurring in price regions where the market remains stagnant or shows minimal movement. The indicator aims to help traders identify potential areas of institutional activity, providing a strategic advantage by recognizing patterns of hidden liquidity.
Core Logic and Methodology
The BWF indicator combines two key factors to identify potential "whale" activity:
Volume Analysis: The first condition evaluates the volume relative to its average over a defined period. This is done by calculating the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume and comparing current volume levels against this average. When the volume is significantly higher than the historical average, it signals the presence of a potentially large order.
Volume Threshold=Current Volume>(Average Volume×Threshold Factor)
Volume Threshold=Current Volume>(Average Volume×Threshold Factor)
According to market theory, large trades or "whale" activities often require substantial volumes to be executed. Identifying these anomalies can offer insights into the behavior of institutional players who seek to execute large transactions without disturbing the market (Lo, 2004).
Price Movement Analysis: The second condition considers the price change in relation to the volume. Specifically, if high volumes are detected but the price remains relatively stable, this suggests that large orders are being executed without significantly impacting the market price.
This phenomenon often occurs in "liquidity pools" or through algorithms designed to mask the true size of the orders. The indicator uses a price change threshold to identify this stagnation, with the condition that price movement remains below a certain percentage threshold.

ICT Setup 03 [TradingFinder] Judas Swing NY 9:30am + CHoCH/FVG🔵 Introduction
Judas Swing is an advanced trading setup designed to identify false price movements early in the trading day. This advanced trading strategy operates on the principle that major market players, or "smart money," drive price in a certain direction during the early hours to mislead smaller traders.
This deceptive movement attracts liquidity at specific levels, allowing larger players to execute primary trades in the opposite direction, ultimately causing the price to return to its true path.
The Judas Swing setup functions within two primary time frames, tailored separately for Forex and Stock markets. In the Forex market, the setup uses the 8:15 to 8:30 AM window to identify the high and low points, followed by the 8:30 to 8:45 AM frame to execute the Judas move and identify the CISD Level break, where Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones are subsequently detected.
In the Stock market, these time frames shift to 9:15 to 9:30 AM for identifying highs and lows and 9:30 to 9:45 AM for executing the Judas move and CISD Level break.
Concepts such as Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) are crucial in this setup. An Order Block represents a chart region with a high volume of buy or sell orders placed by major financial institutions, marking significant levels where price reacts.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) refers to areas where price has moved rapidly without balance between supply and demand, highlighting zones of potential price action and future liquidity.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The Judas Swing setup enables traders to pinpoint entry and exit points by utilizing Order Block and FVG concepts, helping them align with liquidity-driven moves orchestrated by smart money. This setup applies two distinct time frames for Forex and Stocks to capture early deceptive movements, offering traders optimized entry or exit moments.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In the Bullish Judas Swing setup, the first step is to identify High and Low points within the initial time frame. These levels serve as key points where price may react, forming the basis for analyzing the setup and assisting traders in anticipating future market shifts.
In the second time frame, a critical stage of the bullish setup begins. During this phase, the price may create a false break or Fake Break below the low level, a deceptive move by major players to absorb liquidity. This false move often causes smaller traders to enter positions incorrectly. After this fake-out, the price reverses upward, breaking the CISD Level, a critical point in the market structure, signaling a potential bullish trend.
Upon breaking the CISD Level and reversing upward, the indicator identifies both the Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG). The Order Block is an area where major players typically place large buy orders, signaling potential price support. Meanwhile, the FVG marks a region of supply-demand imbalance, signaling areas where price might react.
Ultimately, after these key zones are identified, a trader may open a buy position if the price reaches one of these critical areas—Order Block or FVG—and reacts positively. Trading at these levels enhances the chance of success due to liquidity absorption and support from smart money, marking an opportune time for entering a long position.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In the Bearish Judas Swing setup, analysis begins with marking the High and Low levels in the initial time frame. These levels serve as key zones where price could react, helping to signal possible trend reversals. Identifying these levels is essential for locating significant bearish zones and positioning traders to capitalize on downward movements.
In the second time frame, the primary bearish setup unfolds. During this stage, price may exhibit a Fake Break above the high, causing a brief move upward and misleading smaller traders into incorrect positions. After this false move, the price typically returns downward, breaking the CISD Level—a crucial bearish trend indicator.
With the CISD Level broken and a bearish trend confirmed, the indicator identifies the Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG). The Bearish Order Block is a region where smart money places significant sell orders, prompting a negative price reaction. The FVG denotes an area of supply-demand imbalance, signifying potential selling pressure.
When the price reaches one of these critical areas—the Bearish Order Block or FVG—and reacts downward, a trader may initiate a sell position. Entering trades at these levels, due to increased selling pressure and liquidity absorption, offers traders an advantage in profiting from price declines.
🔵 Settings
Market : The indicator allows users to choose between Forex and Stocks, automatically adjusting the time frames for the "Opening Range" and "Trading Permit" accordingly: Forex: 8:15–8:30 AM for identifying High and Low points, and 8:30–8:45 AM for capturing the Judas move and CISD Level break. Stocks: 9:15–9:30 AM for identifying High and Low points, and 9:30–9:45 AM for executing the Judas move and CISD Level break.
Refine Order Block : Enables finer adjustments to Order Block levels for more accurate price responses.
Mitigation Level OB : Allows users to set specific reaction points within an Order Block, including: Proximal: Closest level to the current price. 50% OB: Midpoint of the Order Block. Distal: Farthest level from the current price.
FVG Filter : The Judas Swing indicator includes a filter for Fair Value Gap (FVG), allowing different filtering based on FVG width: FVG Filter Type: Can be set to "Very Aggressive," "Aggressive," "Defensive," or "Very Defensive." Higher defensiveness narrows the FVG width, focusing on narrower gaps.
Mitigation Level FVG : Like the Order Block, you can set price reaction levels for FVG with options such as Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal.
CISD : The Bar Back Check option enables traders to specify the number of past candles checked for identifying the CISD Level, enhancing CISD Level accuracy on the chart.
🔵 Conclusion
The Judas Swing indicator helps traders spot reliable trading opportunities by detecting false price movements and key levels such as Order Block and FVG. With a focus on early market movements, this tool allows traders to align with major market participants, selecting entry and exit points with greater precision, thereby reducing trading risks.
Its extensive customization options enable adjustments for various market types and trading conditions, giving traders the flexibility to optimize their strategies. Based on ICT techniques and liquidity analysis, this indicator can be highly effective for those seeking precision in their entry points.
Overall, Judas Swing empowers traders to capitalize on significant market movements by leveraging price volatility. Offering precise and dependable signals, this tool presents an excellent opportunity for enhancing trading accuracy and improving performance

To trade these effectively, it is important to understand the time of day when certain macros come into play, and it is strongly advised to introduce the concept of liquidity in your analysis.
Macros can be classified into three categories where the Macro classification is calculated based on the Market Structure prior to macro and the Market Structure during the macro duration:
Manipulation Macro
Manipulation macros are characterized by liquidity being swept both on the buyside and sellside.
Expansion Macro
Expansion macros are characterized by liquidity being swept only on the buyside or sellside. Prices within these macros are highly correlated with the overall trend.
Accumulation Macro
Accumulation macros are characterized by an accumulation of liquidity. Prices within these macros tend to range.
The script returns the maximum/minimum price values reached during the macro interval alongside the average between the maximum/minimum and extends them until a new macro starts. These levels can act as supports and resistances.
🔶 DETAILS
All required data for the macro detection and classification is retrieved using 1 minute data sets, this includes candles as well as pivot/swing highs and lows. This approach guarantees the visually presented objects are same (same highs/lows) on higher timeframes as well as the macro classification remain same as it is in 1 min charts.
8 Macros can be displayed by the script (4 are enabled by default):
02:33 AM 03:00 London Macro
04:03 AM 04:30 London Macro
08:50 AM 09:10 New York Macro
09:50 AM 10:10 New York Macro
10:50 AM 11:10 New York Macro
11:50 AM 12:10 New York Launch Macro
13:10 PM 13:40 New York Macro
15:15 PM 15:45 New York Macro
🔶 ALERTS
When an alert is configured, the user will have the ability to be notified in advance of the next Macro time, where the value specified in 'Alert Macro Times in Advance (Minutes)' option indicates how early to be notified.
🔶 LIMITATIONS
The script is supported on 1 min, 3 mins and 5 mins charts.

Global Market Scanner [Armi Goldman]Concept
This indicator is designed to provide a comprehensive "Bird's Eye View" of the global financial economy. Instead of focusing on a single chart, this dashboard allows traders to monitor capital rotation across every major asset class simultaneously. By tracking the Money Flux (daily percentage change) of these markets, users can instantly identify if the market environment is "Risk-On" (flowing into assets) or "Risk-Off" (fleeing to cash/bonds).
Features
The dashboard displays a real-time table in the top-right corner tracking 9 key sectors:
US M2 Money Supply: The broad measure of liquidity availability.
US Dollar (DXY): The global currency baseline.
Global Stocks (VT): World equities performance.
Crypto Market: Total cryptocurrency market capitalization.
Commodities: Gold, Silver, and Crude Oil (WTI).
Real Estate: Vanguard Real Estate ETF (VNQ).
Bonds: US Aggregate Bond Market.
How it Works
The script utilizes request.security() to fetch data from multiple asset classes regardless of the chart you are currently viewing.
Flux Calculation: The "Flux" column calculates the daily percentage change (Close - Open) / Open. This reveals the immediate direction of capital flow for the current session.
M2 Trend: For the Money Supply, the script calculates a 30-day rate of change to determine if the Fed is effectively "Inflating" (adding liquidity) or "Tightening" (removing liquidity).
Status Logic: The status column uses conditional logic to assign readable labels (e.g., "INFLOW" vs "OUTFLOW" or "STRONGER" vs "WEAKER") based on the positive or negative value of the Flux.
How to Use
Risk-On Signal: If Stocks, Crypto, and Real Estate show green "INFLOW" status while the Dollar (DXY) is red, capital is deploying into risk assets.
Flight to Safety: If Gold and Bonds are green while Equities are red, investors may be hedging against fear.
Cash is King: If DXY is strong (Green) and almost all other assets are red, liquidity is drying up and moving into Cash.
Liquidity Watch: Monitor the US M2 Supply. A simplified view is that when M2 is "Inflating," it provides a long-term tailwind for asset prices.
Tickers Used
Liquidity: ECONOMICS:USM2
Currency: TVC:DXY
Equities: AMEX:VT (Total World Stock ETF)
Real Estate: AMEX:VNQ (Vanguard Real Estate)
Bonds: AMEX:AGG
Commodities: TVC:GOLD, TVC:SILVER, TVC:USOIL

LEGEND IsoPulse Fusion Universal Volume Trend Buy Sell RadarLEGEND IsoPulse Fusion • Universal Volume Trend Buy Sell Radar
One line summary
LEGEND IsoPulse Fusion reads intent from price and volume together, learns which features matter most on your symbol, blends them into a single signed Fusion line in a stable unit range, and emits clear Buy Sell Close events with a structure gate and a liquidity safety gate so you act only when the tape is favorable.
What this script is and why it exists
Many traders keep separate windows for trend, volume, volatility, and regime filters. The result can feel fragmented. This script merges two complementary engines into one consistent view that is easy to read and simple to act on.
LEGEND Tensor estimates directional quality from five causally computed features that are normalized for stationarity. The features are Flow, Tail Pressure with Volume Mix, Path Curvature, Streak Persistence, and Entropy Order.
IsoPulse transforms raw volume into two decaying reservoirs for buy effort and sell effort using body location and wick geometry, then measures price travel per unit volume for efficiency, and detects volume bursts with a recency memory.
Both engines are mapped into the same unit range and fused by a regime aware mixer. When the tape is orderly the mixer leans toward trend features. When the tape is messy but a true push appears in volume efficiency with bursts the mixer allows IsoPulse to speak louder. The outcome is a single Fusion line that lives in a familiar range with calm behavior in quiet periods and expressive pushes when energy concentrates.
What makes it original and useful
Two reservoir volume split . The script assigns a portion of the bar volume to up effort and down effort using body location and wick geometry together. Effort decays through time using a forgetting factor so memory is present without becoming sticky.
Efficiency of move . Price travel per unit volume is often more informative than raw volume or raw range. The script normalizes both sides and centers the efficiency so it becomes signed fuel when multiplied by flow skew.
Burst detection with recency memory . Percent rank of volume highlights bursts. An exponential memory of how recently bursts clustered converts isolated blips into useful context.
Causal adaptive weighting . The LEGEND features do not receive static weights. The script learns, causally, which features have correlated with future returns on your symbol over a rolling window. Only positive contributions are allowed and weights are normalized for interpretability.
Regime aware fusion . Entropy based order and persistence create a mixer that blends IsoPulse with LEGEND. You see a single line rather than two competing panels, which reduces decision conflict.
How to read the screen in seconds
Fusion area . The pane fills above and below zero with a soft gradient. Deeper fill means stronger conviction. The white Fusion line sits on top for precise crossings.
Entry guides and exit guides . Two entry guides draw symmetrically at the active fused entry level. Two exit guides sit inside at a fraction of the entry. Think of them as an adaptive envelope.
Letters . B prints once when the script flips from flat to long. S prints once when the script flips from flat to short. C prints when a held position ends on the appropriate side. T prints when the structure gate first opens. A prints when the liquidity safety flag first appears.
Price bar paint . Bars tint green while long and red while short on the chart to mirror your virtual position.
HUD . A compact dashboard in the corner shows Fusion, IsoPulse, LEGEND, active entry and exit levels, regime status, current virtual position, and the vacuum z value with its avoid threshold.
What signals actually mean
Buy . A Buy prints when the Fusion line crosses above the active entry level while gates are open and the previous state was flat.
Sell . A Sell prints when the Fusion line crosses below the negative entry level while gates are open and the previous state was flat.
Close . A Close prints when Fusion cools back inside the exit envelope or when an opposite cross would occur or when a gate forces a stop, and the previous state was a hold.
Gates . The Trend gate requires sufficient entropy order or significant persistence. The Avoid gate uses a liquidity vacuum z score. Gates exist to protect you from weak tape and poor liquidity.
Inputs and practical tuning
Every input has a tooltip in the script. This section provides a concise reference that you can keep in mind while you work.
Setup
Core window . Controls statistics across features. Scalping often prefers the thirties or low fifties. Intraday often prefers the fifties to eighties. Swing often prefers the eighties to low hundreds. Smaller responds faster with more noise. Larger is calmer.
Smoothing . Short EMA on noisy features. A small value catches micro shifts. A larger value reduces whipsaw.
Fusion and thresholds
Weight lookback . Sample size for weight learning. Use at least five times the horizon. Larger is slower and more confident. Smaller is nimble and more reactive.
Weight horizon . How far ahead return is measured to assess feature value. Smaller favors quick reversion impulses. Larger favors continuation.
Adaptive thresholds . Entry and exit levels from rolling percentiles of the absolute LEGEND score. This self scales across assets and timeframes.
Entry percentile . Eighty selects the top quintile of pushes. Lower to seventy five for more signals. Raise for cleanliness.
Exit percentile . Mid fifties keeps trades honest without overstaying. Sixty holds longer with wider give back.
Order threshold . Minimum structure to trade. Zero point fifteen is a reasonable start. Lower to trade more. Raise to filter chop.
Avoid if Vac z . Liquidity safety level. One point two five is a good default on liquid markets. Thin markets may prefer a slightly higher setting to avoid permanent avoid mode.
IsoPulse
Iso forgetting per bar . Memory for the two reservoirs. Values near zero point nine eight to zero point nine nine five work across many symbols.
Wick weight in effort split . Balance between body location and wick geometry. Values near zero point three to zero point six capture useful behavior.
Efficiency window . Travel per volume window. Lower for snappy symbols. Higher for stability.
Burst percent rank window . Window for percent rank of volume. Around one hundred to three hundred covers most use cases.
Burst recency half life . How long burst clusters matter. Lower for quick fades. Higher for cluster memory.
IsoPulse gain . Pre compression gain before the atan mapping. Tune until the Fusion line lives inside a calm band most of the time with expressive spikes on true pushes.
Continuation and Reversal guides . Visual rails for IsoPulse that help you sense continuation or exhaustion zones. They do not force events.
Entry sensitivity and exit fraction
Entry sensitivity . Loose multiplies the fused entry level by a smaller factor which prints more trades. Strict multiplies by a larger factor which selects fewer and cleaner trades. Balanced is neutral.
Exit fraction . Exit level relative to the entry level in fused unit space. Values around one half to two thirds fit most symbols.
Visuals and UX
Columns and line . Use both to see context and precise crossings. If you present a very clean chart you can turn columns off and keep the line.
HUD . Keep it on while you learn the script. It teaches you how the gates and thresholds respond to your market.
Letters . B S C T A are informative and compact. For screenshots you can toggle them off.
Debug triggers . Show raw crosses even when gates block entries. This is useful when you tune the gates. Turn them off for normal use.

Core window in the thirties to low fifties.
Horizon around five to eight.
Entry percentile around seventy five.
Exit fraction around zero point five five.

Core window around eighty to one hundred twenty.
Horizon around twelve to twenty.
Entry percentile around eighty to eighty five.
Exit fraction around zero point six zero to zero point seven zero.
Order threshold around zero point two zero.
Avoid level around one point two zero.
How to connect signals to your risk plan
This is an indicator. You remain in control of orders and risk.
Stops . A simple choice is an ATR multiple measured on your chart timeframe. Intraday often prefers one point two five to one point five ATR. Swing often prefers one point five to two ATR. Adjust to symbol behavior and personal risk tolerance.
Exits . The script already prints a Close when Fusion cools inside the exit envelope. If you prefer targets you can mirror the entry envelope distance and convert that to points or percent in your own plan.
Position size . Fixed fractional or fixed risk per trade remains a sound baseline. One percent or less per trade is a common starting point for testing.
Sessions and news . Even with self scaling, some traders prefer to skip the first minutes after an open or scheduled news. Gate with your own session logic if needed.
Limitations and honest notes
No look ahead . The script is causal. The adaptive learner uses a shifted correlation, crosses are evaluated without peeking into the future, and no lookahead security calls are used. If you enable intrabar calculations a letter may appear then disappear before the close if the condition fails. This is normal for any cross based logic in real time.
No performance promises . Markets change. This is a decision aid, not a prediction machine. It will not win every sequence and it cannot guarantee statistical outcomes.
No dependence on other indicators . The chart should remain clean. You can add personal tools in private use but publications should keep the example chart readable.
Standard candles only for public signals . Non standard chart types can change event timing and produce unrealistic sequences. Use regular candles for demonstrations and publications.
Internal logic walkthrough
LEGEND feature block
Flow . Current return normalized by ATR then smoothed by a short EMA. This gives directional intent scaled to recent volatility.
Tail pressure with volume mix . The relative sizes of upper and lower wicks inside the high to low range produce a tail asymmetry. A volume based mix can emphasize wick information when volume is meaningful.
Path curvature . Second difference of close normalized by ATR and smoothed. This captures changes in impulse shape that can precede pushes or fades.
Streak persistence . Up and down close streaks are counted and netted. The result is normalized for the window length to keep behavior stable across symbols.
Entropy order . Shannon entropy of the probability of an up close. Lower entropy means more order. The value is oriented by Flow to preserve sign.
Causal weights . Each feature becomes a z score. A shifted correlation against future returns over the horizon produces a positive weight per feature. Weights are normalized so they sum to one for clarity. The result is angle mapped into a compact unit.
IsoPulse block
Effort split . The script estimates up effort and down effort per bar using both body location and wick geometry. Effort is integrated through time into two reservoirs using a forgetting factor.
Skew . The reservoir difference over the sum yields a stable skew in a known range. A short EMA smooths it.
Efficiency . Move size divided by average volume produces travel per unit volume. Normalization and centering around zero produce a symmetric measure.
Bursts and recency . Percent rank of volume highlights bursts. An exponential function of bars since last burst adds the notion of cluster memory.
IsoPulse unit . Skew multiplied by centered efficiency then scaled by the burst factor produces the raw IsoPulse that is angle mapped into the unit range.
Fusion and events
Regime factor . Entropy order and streak persistence form a mixer. Low structure favors IsoPulse. Higher structure favors LEGEND. The blend is convex so it remains interpretable.
Blended guides . Entry and exit guides are blended in the same way as the line so they stay consistent when regimes change. The envelope does not jump unexpectedly.
Virtual position . The script maintains state. Buy and Sell require a cross while flat and gates open. Close requires an exit or force condition while holding. Letters print once at the state change.
Disclosures
This script and description are educational. They do not constitute investment advice. Markets involve risk. You are responsible for your own decisions and for compliance with local rules. The logic is causal and does not look ahead. Signals on non standard chart types can be misleading and are not recommended for publication. When you test a strategy wrapper, use realistic commission and slippage, moderate risk per trade, and enough trades to form a meaningful sample, then document those assumptions if you share results.
Closing thoughts
Clarity builds confidence. The Fusion line gives a single view of intent. The letters communicate action without clutter. The HUD confirms context at a glance. The gates protect you from weak tape and poor liquidity. Tune it to your instrument, observe it across regimes, and use it as a consistent lens rather than a prediction oracle. The goal is not to trade every wiggle. The goal is to pick your spots with a calm process and to stand aside when the tape is not inviting.

Rapid ICT Suite - MTF Concepts & iFVGTitle: Rapid ICT Suite - MTF Concepts & iFVG
Overview
Unlock a new level of market analysis with the Rapid ICT Suite, a comprehensive, all-in-one indicator designed for the discerning price action trader. This powerful tool merges two distinct analytical engines into one seamless experience, allowing you to overlay critical Higher Timeframe (HTF) market structure onto your current chart while simultaneously tracking real-time Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and their inversions (iFVGs).
Whether you are a scalper needing to respect 1H structure, a day trader aligning with the 4H bias, or a swing trader mapping the daily trend, this indicator provides the clarity and context you need to make higher-probability trading decisions. It was built from the ground up to solve common issues traders face, delivering stable, precise, and flexible analysis.
The Strategy: Targeting IRL with iFVG Entries
The Destination (The "Why"): Internal Range Liquidity (IRL)
On a Higher Timeframe (HTF), we will identify major Internal Range Liquidity (IRL) zones. In the context of ICT, IRL simply refers to unmitigated Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) that exist within a broader trading range.
These HTF FVGs act as powerful magnets for price. The market will often seek out these zones to rebalance before continuing its next major move. By plotting these on our chart, we establish a clear directional bias and a high-probability target. Our indicator will now label these HTF FVG boxes as "IRL".
The Entry Signal (The "How"): Inverted Fair Value Gaps (iFVG)
Once we have our HTF IRL target, we drop down to our Lower Timeframe (LTF) for execution.
We wait for price to create an Inverted Fair Value Gap (iFVG). An iFVG is a regular FVG that has failed and been traded through, signifying a shift in momentum.
An iFVG appearing on the LTF provides a high-precision entry signal to take a trade in the direction of the HTF IRL zone. It's our confirmation that the market is likely now making its move towards that destination.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Order Blocks (Boxes): Automatically identify and plot key HTF demand and supply zones (Order Blocks) onto your chart.
Multi-Timeframe Fair Value Gaps (Boxes): See where HTF imbalances exist, giving you a clear map of institutional reference points and potential targets.
Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Pools (Boxes): Pinpoint where buy-side and sell-side liquidity is likely resting, based on clusters of old highs and lows.
Current Timeframe FVG & iFVG (Lines/Labels): A second, independent engine tracks FVGs on your chosen timeframe, monitors them for mitigation, and automatically identifies when an FVG has been inverted (iFVG), a crucial shift in market dynamics.
The "Rapid" Advantage: Solving Trader Frustrations
This indicator was engineered to overcome three of the most common problems with technical indicators:
1. ✅ No More Flickering or "Ghost" Signals
The Problem: Many indicators show signals on the live, forming candle. This causes zones or signals to appear and disappear ("flicker"), leading to confusion and false entries.
The Solution: The Rapid ICT Suite uses 100% confirmed, closed-candle data for all its calculations (OB, FVG, and Liquidity). A zone will only appear on your chart after the price action that confirms it is complete. This means every signal is stable, reliable, and non-repainting.
2. ✅ Frame-Perfect, Precise Placement
The Problem: Indicators that use lookback logic often draw their signals one candle too late, causing a visual disconnect between the price pattern and the signal itself.
The Solution: We have corrected this common flaw. Every box and line is drawn starting from the exact confirmation candle of the pattern. This frame-perfect precision is critical for accurate analysis and planning your entries.
3. ✅ The Dual Analysis Engine: Uncluttered & Flexible
The Problem: Trying to analyze multiple timeframes at once can lead to cluttered charts and mental overload .
The Solution: This suite contains two independent parts that you can control separately.
Part 1 gives you the macro context—the HTF structure where big moves originate.
Part 2 gives you the micro details—the real-time FVG and iFVG story on your trading timeframe.
Use them together for a complete picture, or toggle one off to focus on a specific aspect of your strategy. This flexibility keeps your workspace clean and your analysis sharp.
How to Use & Settings Explained
The indicator settings are neatly organized into two main parts.
Part 1: MTF Concepts (OB, FVG, Liq)
This section controls the Higher Timeframe boxes that are overlaid onto your current chart.
Higher-TF for OB/FVG/Liq: This is the most important setting. Select the higher timeframe you want to analyze. For example, if you are trading on the 15-minute chart, you might set this to 240 (4-Hour) to see the key 4H zones.
Show Order-Blocks / FVGs / Liquidity: Simple toggles to turn each type of HTF zone on or off.
Max... Count: Controls how many of the most recent zones are displayed on the chart, preventing clutter from old, irrelevant zones.
Part 2: FVG & iFVG (Lines/Labels)
This section controls the second engine, which analyzes FVGs and iFVGs on its own selected timeframe.
Timeframe for FVG/iFVG: Choose the timeframe for this analysis. You can leave it blank to use your current chart's timeframe, or set it to a specific one.
Mitigation Type & Mitigation %: A powerful feature to define when an FVG is considered "used up."
Type: Choose if mitigation is counted from the candle's Wick or Close.
Percent: Set how far price must retrace into an FVG (e.g., 50%) before it is considered mitigated and the lines are removed from your chart.
FVG/iFVG Count: Controls how many of the most recent FVG/iFVG zones are displayed.
Style & Color Settings: Fully customize the appearance of the lines and labels to match your chart theme.
Final Words
This indicator was built to provide actionable clarity. By understanding the interplay between higher-timeframe structure and current price action, you can significantly enhance your trading edge. Thank you for choosing the Rapid ICT Suite.
Happy trading!

LIT - ConfirmationsOverview
The LIT - Confirmations Indicator is a dynamic checklist tool designed for traders who uses LIT Strategy (Liquidity Inducement Theory) following liquidity and smart money concepts as benefit. This tool allows users to document and track essential trading confirmations directly on their TradingView charts, offering a structured and visual approach to market analysis.
What Makes This Unique?
Unlike other open-source tools, the LIT - Confirmations Indicator introduces a fully interactive and customizable table directly on the chart. This table provides real-time feedback with clear ✅ (checked) and ❌ (unchecked) visual indicators for each confirmation. The user can position the table on the chart according to their preference, ensuring it integrates seamlessly into their trading workflow without obscuring critical chart data.
How It Works
1. Predefined Confirmations
The indicator includes a set of commonly used trading confirmations:
Identify Liquidity: Mark areas where liquidity might pool.
Inducement: Confirm the presence of inducements before market reversals.
Relevant Break of Structure (BOS): Validate critical structural changes.
Mitigation after RBoS: Check for mitigation following a BOS.
Smart Money Trap (SMT): Identify traps often utilized by smart money.
Timing: Ensure trades are entered during high-probability time windows.
Mitigation to the Leftside: Confirm whether price action aligns with prior mitigations.
Set Targets: Define and document logical take-profit or stop-loss levels.
2.Interactive Table Display
A table is dynamically created on the chart, showing all confirmations with their current state (checked or unchecked).
Users can choose the position of the table (top, middle, or bottom and left, center, or right) and customize its background color for better visibility.
3. Customization
All confirmations are toggled through the input settings, allowing traders to adapt the indicator to their unique strategies.
The display can be easily adjusted to match the trader’s preferences without cluttering the chart.
How to Use
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Open the settings panel to activate the relevant confirmations for your analysis.
3. Use the Display Settings section to adjust the table's position and background color.
4. View the table on your chart to track selected confirmations in real-time.
Who Is This For?
This indicator is ideal for traders who:
Use Liquidity Inducent Theory strategy in their analysis.
Prefer a structured and systematic trading approach.
Need an on-chart tool to document confirmations without relying on external notes or tools.
Why Closed Source?
The logic behind the interactive table and confirmation system is specifically tailored to LIT practitioners and is not publicly available in existing open-source scripts. The closed-source nature of this script protects its unique implementation, ensuring the integrity and exclusivity of the tool.
Disclaimer
This indicator does not provide trading signals or strategies. It is a tool to document user-defined confirmations and should be used in conjunction with a thorough understanding of market behavior and risk management practices.
