Sonarlab - Trendline Liquidity Indicator**This is not a normal Trend Line Indicator**
Most of the concepts we get thought online are to good to be true. Buy and sell off the touch of the trend line and you will be winning! You probably find out already that this ain't the way to trade. Trend lines mostly gets broken and you will be taken out.
he reason behind this is that the trend lines sparks the interests of Institutions. They use those area's to stop people out and use them as fuel for their positions: Liquidity.
TLL: Trend Line Liquidity
Lets show you an example on how to use these TLL markings 👇
In this example above we can see a beautiful example of the TLL indicator mapping out the TLL. The Imbalance Indicator shows us with the BPR (balanced price range) there is a sign of going short. The other confluence we can add is the TLL, which price likes to clear in these situations.
In this other example we also see two TLL resting on top. We see that price tried to break the SL (swing low), but the fake out detection showed us this was a grab on liquidity. After that we can see that on the LTF we get a displacement and we can assume that price is going to target the TLL.
Another example where price cleared the TLL and used is a targets.
This indicator will map the Trend Line Liquidity for you, so you are more aware of the liquidity that is resting around you. The Indicator has the following inputs:
Sensitivity A lower sensitivity create smaller trend lines, where a higher sensitivity creates bigger trend lines.
Display limit : The amount of lines you want the indicator to display
Line type/ text size (styling options)
HTF Liquidity Levels█ OVERVIEW
The indicator introduces a new representation of the previous days, weeks, and months highs & lows ( DWM HL ) with a focus on untapped levels.
█ CONCEPTS
Untapped Levels
It is popularly known that the liquidity is located behind swing points or beyond higher time frames highs/lows (in a sense, an intraday swing point is a day high/low). These key areas are said "liquid" because of the accumulation of resting orders, mainly in the form of stop-loss orders. And this more significantly on higher time frames which have more time for stacking orders. As the result, the indicator aims to keep track of untapped levels that have their liquidity states intact.
Liquidity Pools
Once a liquidity level identified, or better, a cluster of liquidity levels work as magnets for the market. The price is more likely to make its way towards heavier pockets of liquidity, by proximity (the closest liquidity pool), and by difficulty (path with less obstacles). This phenomenon is referred as liquidity run, raid, purge, grab, hunt, sweep, you name it. Consequently, the indicator can help you frame a directional bias during your trading session.
█ NOTES
Drawings
Once a level is tapped, it is highlighted. At the end of each day, all tapped levels are cleared.

🎯 Key Features (in-depth):
The Market Structure component within ILPAC ™ shows the underlying trend of the market using swing high and lows and is purely price action based. Higher Highs(HH), Higher Lows(HL) labels generally indicate an uptrend and Lower Highs(LH) and Lower Lows(LL) indicate a downtrend. The trend of the market is also determined by Change of Characters (CHoCH) and Break of Structure patterns (BOS). The Market Structure component marks out all these automatically and colours the bars on your chart for easy visualisation of trend.
The Liquidity Heatmap component within ILPAC ™ visualizes areas of high and low liquidity in the market. It identifies zones where liquidity is concentrated not only at specific price levels but also over time, giving the user a 3 Dimensional view of liquidity. The heatmap colours represent different levels of liquidity, making it easy to see where large volumes of orders may exist. This component helps traders understand the liquidity landscape and make informed decisions based on potential support and resistance levels.
The Trend Lines component within ILPAC ™ automatically draws trend lines based on historical price data. It identifies significant highs and lows, connecting them to form trend lines that highlight the overall market direction as well as give breakout signals as shown in the image below. The component also includes a noise filter to reduce false signals and ensure only valid trend breakouts are displayed. Customizable colour settings allow traders to personalize the visual representation of trend lines on their charts.
The FOMO Bubbles component within ILPAC ™ identifies periods of market activity driven by Fear of Missing Out (FOMO). By analysing price action and volume, it highlights bubbles where traders are likely entering positions impulsively. These bubbles are displayed on the chart with customizable colours, providing a visual cue for potential overbought or oversold conditions. This component helps traders recognize and potentially capitalize on market exuberance or panic.
🎯Usage Examples:
At its core, the components within ILPAC ™ were designed to operate with each other as a form of confluence and robust analysis. Typically, Price action components such as the Market Structure and Trend Lines can be used for entries while the Liquidity components like FOMO Bubbles and the Heatmap can be used to find exit points. Here are some examples of how they can be used.
Trend Trading
Using the Market Structure component, enter a trade during a CHoCH and set TP at key areas of liquidity using the heatmap. Users can also choose to enter into a BOS which is an indication of a trend continuation.
Reversal Trading
Using the Liquidity Heatmap to find areas of liquidity for possible reversals, wait for a rejection from a liquidity zone and use the Trend Line Breakout signals as confluence for an entry. Exits can be set at liquidity zones or using FOMO Bubbles as take profit signals.
(These are just examples for reference, the ILPAC ™ offers significantly more possibilities for customisation and fine tuning of your trading strategy.)
🎯Conclusion:
The Institutional Liquidity and Price Action Concepts™ (ILPAC) indicator by AlgoAlpha is a powerful tool for traders, offering in-depth market insights through its Market Structure, Liquidity Heatmap, Trend Lines, and FOMO Bubbles components. By integrating Price Action based analysis with Liquidity analysis, ILPAC ™ boasts a superior design for the confluence between its components, using Price Action components for entry opportunities and Liquidity based components for exit opportunities. With its highly customizable settings, this indicator caters to all trading styles, from scalping to long-term investing. By providing clear visualizations and automatic trend and liquidity detection, ILPAC ™ empowers traders to make informed decisions, enhancing their trading strategies and improving overall market understanding.
Open Liquidity Heatmap [BigBeluga]Open Liquidity Heatmap is an indicator designed to display accumulated resting liquidity on the chart.
Unlike any other liquidity heatmap, this aims to accumulate liquidity at specific levels that build up over time, showing larger areas of liquidity.
🔶 FEATURES
The indicator includes the following settings:
Lookback : Used to determine the range calculation of the heatmap.
Leverage : Leverage of the liquidation (Counted as % in price, Example: 4.5 will return a distance from price of 4.5%, indicating any possible resting liquidity in this range).
Levels : Amount of levels to display (Each level is counted as liquidity resting on the chart; fewer levels will return a bigger area of liquidity sitting on the chart).
Mode : Apply a color gradient from the minimum liquidation to the maximum liquidity level. Set the maximum color gradient value (Counted as volume).
Offset : Automatically determine the offset range of the Volume Profiles. Manual offset of the Volume Profiles.
🔶 CALCULATION
for i = 0 to step - 1
float plotter = na
switch i
0 =>
plotter := hs
=>
plotter := hs - diff * ( i )
cls.hm.gnL(plotter)
cls.vp.put(plotter, 0)
We calculate levels like a normal volume profile with steps, from the highest point within the lookback to the lowest one. Each level will contain the corresponding amount of volume that the candle has closed in that range.
As we can see in the image above, we add liquidity each time the distance in % from price is between two levels.
Unlike many liquidity indicators that provide a single candle liquidity heatmap, this aims to add up liquidity (volume) in already present levels.
This can be extremely useful to see which levels are likely to be more liquid and tend to get a bigger reaction to the price.
Imagine it like a range of levels that each time price revisits that area, a new position area is added; we add volume in that area each time price visits that zone. Liquidity builds up in those zones, causing a bigger reaction to the price once the price visits it.
This indicator is not the same as a single candle heatmap like many others. What is a single candle heatmap?
A single candle heatmap is when a level is created on every new candle, coloring the level based on the total volume of it.
This indicator, on the contrary, aims to provide a more specific use by adding up liquidity each time price visits it.
🔶 BASIC DEMOSTRATION
This is a basic demonstration of how we can spot high liquidity points overall using confluence:
We see the POC of the liquidation in a low volume area of the normal volume profile adding up as confluence.
Resistance from the POC Volume Profile suggesting price will go lower.
Major long open liquidity down.
As we can see, price takes out all the long liquidity and right after pumping, indicating that all the major liquidity got taken out.
Some key note to take is that a POC in the liquidation heatmap in a low volume area of the normal Volume Profile add confluence of a possible big reaction in that zone.
In the forex market, we suggest to use a low distance from price (Leverage) while in a crypto market you can use the one that fit the best the current timeframe.
🔶 CONCLUSION
This indicator aims to show open resting liquidity that had built up over time, showing the most amount of liquidation in specific areas in an aggregated way unlike many liquidation heatmap indicators that show single-level liquidation.
🔶 RELATED SCRIPT
PT LiquidityVersion 1.0 of our Liquidity indicator helps determine areas where price might gravitate to fill liquidations. We have six levels of interest, broken down into three levels for shorts (highlighted in red) & three levels for longs (highlighted in green). Each level is labeled 25x, 50x, 100x. We added a cloud for a visual to assist in short/long liquidation zones. You want to be taking short setups at the top of the cloud when shorts get squeezed & taking long setups at the bottom of the cloud when longs get squeezed. The indicator has a proprietary formula that allows the levels to change based on volume and time frames. The levels are generated in real-time with a rolling VWMA.
Strategy:
If you are scalping, price tends to ping pong between the 50x & 100x longs (green) to 50x & 100x shorts (red). If we shift outside that zone, consider the trend to have changed. Look at a higher time frame (12h+) for trend direction. Price usually reverses when the daily takes all three liquidation levels. You want to see a strong reaction (wick) once we tap that last liquidation level.
This Oscillator was built around our buy sell indicator & it is used on all time frames for swinging & scalping. It is included as part of the library. Just message us for access!
Fractal Break Imbalance / Fair Value Gap (FVG) / Liquidity VoidFractal Break Imbalance / Fair Value Gap (FVG) / Liquidity Void
Order imbalances in either direction, either excess buy or sell orders, reduce liquidity. The market will seek to fill gaps sooner or later. The script marks an imbalance / FVG after a fractal break. It also marks any other imbalance.
Default Colours:
Green - Imbalance after fractal break to the upside
Red - Imbalance after fractal break to the downside
Yellow - Other imbalances
How To Use:
Gaps can be used to determine possible entries and targets. Those familiar with liquidity raids, supply and demand, and ICT concepts may realise it's potential.

Structural Liquidity Signals [BullByte]Structural Liquidity Signals (SFP, FVG, BOS, AVWAP)
Short description
Detects liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels, highlights the latest FVG, tracks AVWAP stretch, arms percentile extremes, and triggers after confirmed micro BOS.
Full description
What this tool does
Structural Liquidity Signals shows where price likely tapped liquidity (stop clusters), then waits for structure to actually change before it prints a trigger. It spots:
Liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at recent pivots and at prior day/week highs/lows.
The latest Fair Value Gap (FVG) that often “pulls” price or serves as a reaction zone.
How far price is stretched from two VWAP anchors (one from the latest impulse, one from today’s session), scaled by ATR so it adapts to volatility.
A “percentile” extreme of an internal score. At extremes the script “arms” a setup; it only triggers after a small break of structure (BOS) on a closed bar.
Originality and design rationale, why it’s not “just a mashup”
This is not a mashup for its own sake. It’s a purpose-built flow that links where liquidity is likely to rest with how structure actually changes:
- Liquidity location: We focus on areas where stops commonly cluster—recent pivots and prior day/week highs/lows—then detect sweeps (SFPs) when price wicks beyond and closes back inside.
- Displacement context: We track the last Fair Value Gap (FVG) to account for recent inefficiency that often acts as a magnet or reaction zone.
- Stretch measurement: We anchor VWAP to the latest N-bar impulse and to the Daily session, then normalize stretch by ATR to assess dislocation consistently across assets/timeframes.
- Composite exhaustion: We combine stretch, wick skew, and volume surprise, then bend the result with a tanh transform so extremes are bounded and comparable.
- Dynamic extremes and discipline: Rather than triggering on every sweep, we “arm” at statistical extremes via percent-rank and only fire after a confirmed micro Break of Structure (BOS). This separates “interesting” from “actionable.”
Key concepts
SFP (liquidity sweep): A candle briefly trades beyond a level (where stops sit) and closes back inside. We detect these at:
Pivots (recent swing highs/lows confirmed by “left/right” bars).
Prior Day/Week High/Low (PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
FVG (Fair Value Gap): A small 3‑bar gap (bar2 high vs bar1 low, or vice versa). The latest gap often acts like a magnet or reaction zone. We track the most recent Up/Down gap and whether price is inside it.
AVWAP stretch: Distance from an Anchored VWAP divided by ATR (volatility). We use:
Impulse AVWAP: resets on each new N‑bar high/low.
Daily AVWAP: resets each new session.
PR (Percentile Rank): Where the current internal score sits versus its own recent history (0..100). We arm shorts at high PR, longs at low PR.
Micro BOS: A small break of the recent high (for longs) or low (for shorts). This is the “go/no‑go” confirmation.
How the parts work together
Find likely liquidity grabs (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels.
Add context from the latest FVG and AVWAP stretch (how far price is from “fair”).
Build a bounded score (so different markets/timeframes are comparable) and compute its percentile (PR).
Arm at extremes (high PR → short candidate; low PR → long candidate).
Only print a trigger after a micro BOS, on a closed bar, with spacing/cooldown rules.
What you see on the chart (legend)
Lines:
Teal line = Impulse AVWAP (resets on new N‑bar extreme).
Aqua line = Daily AVWAP (resets each session).
PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL = prior day/week levels (toggle on/off).
Zones:
Greenish box = latest Up FVG; Reddish box = latest Down FVG.
The shading/border changes after price trades back through it.
SFP labels:
SFP‑P = SFP at Pivot (dotted line marks that pivot’s price).
SFP‑L = SFP at Level (at PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
Throttle: To reduce clutter, SFPs are rate‑limited per direction.
Triggers:
Triangle up = long trigger after BOS; triangle down = short trigger after BOS.
Optional badge shows direction and PR at the moment of trigger.
Optional Trigger Zone is an ATR‑sized box around the trigger bar’s close (for visualization only).
Background:
Light green/red shading = a long/short setup is “armed” (not a trigger).
Dashboard (Mini/Pro) — what each item means
PR: Percentile of the internal score (0..100). Near 0 = bullish extreme, near 100 = bearish extreme.
Gauge: Text bar that mirrors PR.
State: Idle, Armed Long (with a countdown), or Armed Short.
Cooldown: Bars remaining before a new setup can arm after a trigger.
Bars Since / Last Px: How long since last trigger and its price.
FVG: Whether price is in the latest Up/Down FVG.
Imp/Day VWAP Dist, PD Dist(ATR): Distance from those references in ATR units.
ATR% (Gate), Trend(HTF): Status of optional regime filters (volatility/trend).
How to use it (step‑by‑step)
Keep the Safety toggles ON (default): triggers/visuals on bar‑close, optional confirmed HTF for trend slope.
Choose timeframe:
Intraday (5m–1h) or Swing (1h–4h). On very fast/thin charts, enable Performance mode and raise spacing/cooldown.
Watch the dashboard:
When PR reaches an extreme and an SFP context is present, the background shades (armed).
Wait for the trigger triangle:
It prints only after a micro BOS on a closed bar and after spacing/cooldown checks.
Use the Trigger Zone box as a visual reference only:
This script never tells you to buy/sell. Apply your own plan for entry, stop, and sizing.
Example:
Bullish: Sweep under PDL (SFP‑L) and reclaim; PR in lower tail arms long; BOS up confirms → long trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Bearish: Sweep above PDH/pivot (SFP‑L/P) and reject; PR in upper tail arms short; BOS down confirms → short trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Settings guide (with “when to adjust”)
Safety & Stability (defaults ON)
Confirm triggers at bar close, Draw visuals at bar close: Keep ON for clean, stable prints.
Use confirmed HTF values: Applies to HTF trend slope only; keeps it from changing until the HTF bar closes.
Performance mode: Turn ON if your chart is busy or laggy.
Core & Context
ATR Length: Bigger = smoother distances; smaller = more reactive.
Impulse AVWAP Anchor: Larger = fewer resets; smaller = resets more often.
Show Daily AVWAP: ON if you want session context.
Use last FVG in logic: ON to include FVG context in arming/score.
Show PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL: ON to see prior day/week levels that often attract sweeps.
Liquidity & Microstructure
Pivot Left/Right: Higher values = stronger/rarer pivots.
Min Wick Ratio (0..1): Higher = only more pronounced SFP wicks qualify.
BOS length: Larger = stricter BOS; smaller = quicker confirmations.
Signal persistence: Keeps SFP context alive for a few bars to avoid flicker.
Signal Gating
Percent‑Rank Lookback: Larger = more stable extremes; smaller = more reactive extremes.
Arm thresholds (qHi/qLo): Move closer to 0.5 to see more arms; move toward 0/1 to see fewer arms.
TTL, Cooldown, Min bars and Min ATR distance: Space out triggers so you’re not reacting to minor noise.
Regime Filters (optional)
ATR percentile gate: Only allow triggers when volatility is at/above a set percentile.
HTF trend gate: Only allow longs when the HTF slope is up (and shorts when it’s down), above a minimum slope.
Visuals & UX
Only show “important” SFPs: Filters pivot SFPs by Volume Z and |Impulse stretch|.
Trigger badges/history and Max badge count: Control label clutter.
Compact labels: Toggle SFP‑P/L vs full names.
Dashboard mode and position; Dark theme.
Reading PR (the built‑in “oscillator”)
PR ~ 0–10: Potential bullish extreme (long side can arm).
PR ~ 90–100: Potential bearish extreme (short side can arm).
Important: “Armed” ≠ “Enter.” A trigger still needs a micro BOS on a closed bar and spacing/cooldown to pass.
Repainting, confirmations, and HTF notes
By default, prints wait for the bar to close; this reduces repaint‑like effects.
Pivot SFPs only appear after the pivot confirms (after the chosen “right” bars).
PD/W levels come from the prior completed candles and do not change intraday.
If you enable confirmed HTF values, the HTF slope will not change until its higher‑timeframe bar completes (safer but slightly delayed).
Performance tips
If labels/zones clutter or the chart lags:
Turn ON Performance mode.
Hide FVG or the Trigger Zone.
Reduce badge history or turn badge history off.
If price scaling looks compressed:
Keep optional “score”/“PR” plots OFF (they overlay price and can affect scaling).
Alerts (neutral)
Structural Liquidity: LONG TRIGGER
Structural Liquidity: SHORT TRIGGER
These fire when a trigger condition is met on a confirmed bar (with defaults).
Limitations and risk
Not every sweep/extreme reverses; false triggers occur, especially on thin markets and low timeframes.
This indicator does not provide entries, exits, or position sizing—use your own plan and risk control.
Educational/informational only; no financial advice.

AlgoRhythmica - Liquidity MapThe AlgoRhythmica - Liquidity Map is a complex and performance heavy indicator, attempting to visualize and highlight areas of liquidity on the chart. It paints lines above and below price with different color and opacity based on the volume, and then highlight the areas with the highest cumulative volume.
What is liquidity and a liquidity map?
Liquidity refers to how quickly and easily an asset can be bought or sold in the market without affecting its price. High liquidity means that there are many buyers and sellers, and transactions can happen rapidly and smoothly.
Liquidity analysis involves examining where and how liquidity is distributed across different price levels.
Price often moves from liquidity zone to liquidity zone, and therefore, having an idea of where those zones are can give traders an understanding of potential support and resistance levels and where significant trading activities might occur.
Those looking to fill large buy orders for example would want to do that in liquid sell areas and vice versa. This indicator attempts to estimate the price levels where traders using leverage get liquidated, and therefore creates liquid areas for buying and selling.
In contrast to Bookmaps which chart the orders in the order book where traders want to transact, a liquidity map is charting where traders are 'forced' to transact due to stop-losses or margin calls. To do that, liquidity maps are mostly based on estimations. It could be based on pivot points, common stop-loss amounts, common leverage amounts or a combination of multiple factors.
As of the current version on release, this indicator is only using the leverage input by the user to estimate the liquidity.
How does it work and what makes it unique?
The indicator takes the volume in a candle and saves that volume in a line. Based on the leverage settings it then offsets that line above and below price. Say, a trader using 20x leverage without a stop-loss gets liquidated if price goes roughly 5% in the wrong direction. Therefore, by assuming common leverage amounts or common risk amounts, we can estimate where traders get liquidated or have their stop-losses based on their leverage or amount they are willing to risk.
Now keep in mind, this liquidity map is just estimating based on general assumptions, it doesn't have access to actual liquidity data.
But at the same time, we're not trading single individual traders, but we're trading the market as a whole, and interestingly enough, some risk and leverage amounts are more common than others. People like using those even numbers like 10x, 20x, 1% risk etc. That's why price do often react on the liquidity in liquidity maps such as this one.
So, when a candle is printed, and you are on a smaller timeframe and decided this is just the kind of market for 100x scalpers. You set the leverage to 100x in the settings and the indicator will paint lines above and below price offset by 1%. There are settings for three leverage amounts at the same time, so you might also set it to paint lines at 5% and 10%, just to catch those traders on higher timeframes if price really takes off.
Now let's talk about what makes this indicator really shine and stand out!
Normally, if we just left the indicator doing as above, there would be lines all over the place and very difficult to interpret which areas matter, or we could limit the indicator to only print lines at high volume candles. Now, you do have that option, but that wouldn't pick up areas where low volume trading has cumulated in the same range, such as over a weekend or during market gaps. Where other liquidity indicators out there might miss that liquidity, this indicator has several solutions for it.
The first solution is stacking semi-transparent lines on top of each other. Normally, lines of the same color and transparency wouldn't add and blend together. But this script offers a seamless transition from one color the next, blending those low volume liquidity lines together.
The second solution, and this is what I believe is really unique and powerful, is that this indicator also has the ability highlight certain liquidity. When enabled, it scans through all the lines, cumulate the volume within a specified range around the lines and then compare the cumulated volume range with the ranges around the other lines. New lines created in the range with the highest cumulated volume gets highlighted.
Without this feature you wouldn't necessarily be able to tell which of two strong areas are more liquid. When price later enters that area and crosses those lines, the liquidity there is then considered consumed and lines created in a different range will now begin to highlight.
All of this is of course enhanced, as in the picture above, when multiple copies of the indicator is used together and assigned to only calculate specific parts of the liquidity map, such as longs, shorts or specific leverage amounts.
Oh, and there's also options for assigning which part of the candle should generate the liquidity. Close, Middle Body or Open. The indicator will then assume that the majority of traders are entering their position in that part of the candle.
The offset is calculated from that part of the candle. By using multiple copies of the indicator, you can assign one for each part and that will give you the whole range of the candle. And you might assume more traders go long from the top, so to emphasize that liquidity, you could increase the size or transparency slightly of the lines generated from that part.
How do I use it?
Well, this isn't gonna give you trading signals or anything, but it will visualize the market for you in a new perspective.
Typically, high liquidity areas are often good areas for entry and TP. But always watch how the price reacts in those areas before entering a position. And remember, the liquidity estimation might not always be accurate.
Particularly watch the highlighted areas for long wicks and high volume, indicating that the liquidity was enough to meet the orders and a retrace or reversal could be imminent.
Watch what happens during consolidation, market gaps and weekends. Notice the lack of liquidity and how the market maker creates liquidity by inducing traders to take positions with quick moves that instantly reverses. You might know how that works in theory, but watching it happen real-time with visualized liquidity is very interesting.
While not necessary, and as I've mentioned earlier, dividing the different functions of the indicator on multiple copies will substantially increase it's accuracy and performance!
For example, use one copy of the indicator per leverage level, or one for shorts, one for longs. One that generates from the close, one from the middle etc. creating a much clearer picture of the liquidity like the picture comparison above.
This is what the indicator offers:
When you're estimating liquidity, you want to be able to do it with accuracy and interpretability. That's why the customization options of this indicator has been really important in the development.
Timeframe Options:
It supports a wide range of time periods, from daily to yearly, enabling traders to apply it across various trading strategies, from short-term day trading to long-term investment analysis. Assuming traders are eventually taking their profits, liquidity after the set time period disappears.
Rich Visual Settings:
The indicator comes with multiple preset color themes and a completely customizable option as well. These visual settings are designed to enhance the interpretability of liquidity data, with adjustable transparency and contrast features.
Liquidity Highlighting Function:
This unique feature emphasizes areas with high liquidity concentration. It scans and highlights significant liquidity zones, aiding traders in identifying critical market levels.
Liquidity Profile:
The LQ-Profile extends liquidity lines based on their associated volume, giving traders another way of identifying high liquidity zones.
Adjustable Liquidity Estimation:
Select and adjust leverage amounts based on your particular chart and analysis. Choose what positions and leverage amounts to display liquidity for. You also have the option to determine if wicks consume liquidity or not.
Since wicks indicate that price was rejected from that area, it doesn't necessarily mean all the liquidity in that area was consumed. You could assign an additional copy of the indicator consuming with wicks and another that doesn't. That way, half the liquidity gets consumed and the other half remains until another candle closes in that area. They choices are endless and it's all about your understanding and analysis here.
Multiple Performance Options:
Depending on your particular chart and timeframe, this indicator can be very performance heavy to load. Luckily it has plenty of performance options for limiting the calculations of the indicator.
Tooltips:
As usual, this indicator comes with extensive tooltips for every function, making sure you understand every part of it.
Happy trading!
DECODE Global Liquidity IndexDECODE Global Liquidity Index 🌊
The DECODE Global Liquidity Index is a powerful tool designed to track and aggregate global liquidity by combining data from the world's 13 largest economies. It offers a comprehensive view of financial liquidity, providing crucial insights into the underlying currents that can influence asset prices and market trends.
The economies covered are: United States, China, European Union, Japan, India, United Kingdom, Brazil, Canada, Russia, South Korea, Australia, Mexico, and Indonesia. The European Union accounts for major individual economies within the EU like Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Poland, etc.
Key Features:
1. Customizable Liquidity Sources
Include Global M2: You can opt to include the M2 money supply from the 13 listed economies. M2 is a broad measure of money supply that includes cash, checking deposits, savings deposits, money market securities, mutual funds, and other time deposits. (Note: Australia uses M3 as its primary measure, which is included when M2 is selected for Australia).
Include Central Bank Balance Sheets (CBBS): Alternatively, or in addition, you can include the total assets held by the central banks of these economies. Central bank balance sheets expand or contract based on monetary policy operations like quantitative easing (QE) or tightening (QT).
Combined View: If you select both M2 and CBBS, and data is available for both, the indicator will display an average of the two aggregated values. If only one source type is selected, or if data for one type is unavailable despite both being selected, the indicator will display the single available and selected component. This provides flexibility in how you define and analyze global liquidity.
2. Lead/Lag Analysis (Forward Projection):
Lead Offset (Days): This feature allows you to project the liquidity index forward by a specified number of days.
Why it's useful: Global liquidity changes can often be a leading indicator for various asset classes, particularly those sensitive to risk appetite, like Bitcoin or growth stocks. These assets might lag shifts in liquidity. By applying a lead (e.g., 90 days), you can shift the liquidity data forward on your chart to more easily visualize potential correlations and identify if current asset price movements might be responding to past changes in liquidity.
3. Rate of Change (RoC) Oscillator:
Year-over-Year % View: Instead of viewing aggregate liquidity, you can switch to a Year-over-Year (YoY%) Rate of Change (ROC) oscillator.
Why it's useful:
Momentum Identification: The ROC highlights the speed and direction of liquidity changes. Positive values indicate liquidity is increasing compared to a year ago, while negative values show it's decreasing.
Turning Points: Oscillators make it easier to spot potential accelerations, decelerations, or reversals in liquidity trends. A cross above the zero line can signal strengthening liquidity momentum, while a cross below can signal weakening momentum.
Cycle Analysis: It helps in assessing the cyclical nature of liquidity provision and its potential impact on market cycles.
This indicator aims to provide a clear, customizable, and insightful measure of global liquidity to aid traders and investors in their market analysis.
[TehThomas- Pro] - Liquidity SignalsOverview
This Pine Script indicator is designed to generate Buy and Sell signals based on liquidity sweeps and market structure shifts (MSS) or break of structure (BOS). The combination of liquidity sweeps and market structure changes provides a highly confluential signal that can be used to identify high-probability trade setups. This indicator is capable of working as a standalone tool or as part of a broader trading strategy.
Core Concepts
Liquidity Sweeps:
A liquidity sweep occurs when the price temporarily breaks a previous high or low, taking out stop losses or inducing breakout traders, only to reverse direction shortly after.
The indicator detects these liquidity sweeps at pivot points defined by a user-set pivotPeriod.
It plots Buyside Liquidity (resistance) or Sellside Liquidity (support) lines on the chart to indicate where liquidity pools are likely positioned.
Market Structure Shifts (MSS) and Break of Structure (BOS):
BOS: This occurs when the price closes above or below a previous swing high or low, indicating a potential shift in trend.
MSS: This is a more aggressive form of market structure change where the price action reverses after a liquidity sweep, signaling a potential reversal before a BOS confirmation.
The script tracks swing highs and swing lows using the pivot_strength setting to define how many bars are required on both sides of a pivot point.
Confluence of Signals:
The main signal is plotted when a Liquidity Sweep is followed by an MSS within a specified number of bars (25 by default).
This creates a high-probability trade signal because it combines both liquidity traps and market structure reversals.
Below, you can see the signals the indicator generates
There is one loss marked by the second circle.
Settings and Inputs
Liquidity Sweep Settings
pivotPeriod: Defines the left and right length of the pivot points to detect swing highs and lows.
maxLine: Maximum number of liquidity lines plotted on the chart.

lineExtend: Number of bars to extend liquidity lines into the future.
hitAction: Determines what happens when liquidity lines are hit (dotted, dashed, or delete).
Market Structure Settings
show_mss: Toggle to display MSS signals on the chart.
show_bos: Toggle to display BOS signals on the chart.
Customizable line styles, colors, and labels for both MSS and BOS.
How to Use the Indicator
Signal Confirmation:
A Buy Signal is most effective when combined with a liquidity sweep of sellside liquidity followed by a bullish market structure shift.
A Sell Signal is most effective when combined with a liquidity sweep of buyside liquidity followed by a bearish market structure shift.
Always check confluence with other indicators such as moving averages or volume analysis.
Trade Management:
Place stop-loss orders below the liquidity sweep low for buys or above the liquidity sweep high for sells.
Use the previous swing high or low as a target or set custom risk-reward ratios.

ICT Concepts(Liquidity, FVG & Liquidity Sweeps)📄 Description:
A Smart Money Concept (SMC)-based utility that blends ICT-style Liquidity Sweeps, Fair Value Gap (FVG) mapping, and Swing Structure proxies – designed for traders seeking clean precision in price imbalance analysis.
⸻
🔍 1. What This Script Does
T his indicator brings together three core Institutional Concepts:
• Liquidity Sweep Detection : Identifies buy/sell-side liquidity grabs (fakeouts) confirmed by volume spikes – a common precursor to institutional order flow shifts.
• Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) : Highlights inefficiencies between price legs using strict ICT-style 3-candle or gap-based rules. These are areas institutions often revisit.
• Swing Structure Proxy (OB Mapping) : Tracks dynamic swing highs/lows to act as proxy zones for potential order blocks and structural boundaries.
It also includes a cooldown-based signal filtering engine to prevent overfitting and noise, helping traders avoid false positives in choppy markets.
⚙️ 2. How It Works (Core Logic)
✅ A. Liquidity Sweep Engine
• Looks back N bars to find Equal Highs or Equal Lows.
• Triggers a signal only if price sweeps the level and closes on the other side with a volume spike.
• Customizable volume threshold (e.g., 1.5x average volume).
• Includes a signal cooldown period to reduce clutter and boost quality.
Bullish Sweep = Price dips below equal lows but closes higher
Bearish Sweep = Price spikes above equal highs but closes lower
Visuals: Signal arrows with alerts (BUY LQ / SELL LQ)
⸻
✅ B. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Zones
• Detects FVGs using:
• Sequential logic: Low > High (bullish), High < Low (bearish)
• Gap logic: Open gaps at bar open
• Dynamic box drawing:
• Automatically extends FVG zones until price fully closes through them.
• Different color coding for bullish (teal) and bearish (orange) gaps.
• Customizable:
• Opacity control
• Option to include/exclude gap-based FVGs
• Hide filled zones
• Limit total zones rendered (for performance)
⸻
✅ C. Swing High/Low Structure
• Uses a lookback period to find latest swing high/low levels.
• Acts as a proxy for Order Block zones or structural shift reference points.
• Plotted as red (high) and green (low) lines.
⸻
🚀 3. How to Use It
• Scalpers and Intraday Traders can use Liquidity Sweep + FVG Confluence to time reversals or catch early entries into trend continuation moves.
• Swing Traders can observe swing OB proxies and recent FVG zones to frame directional bias and target zones.
• Volume-Aware Traders benefit from the volume filter that confirms sweeps are meaningful – not just random stop hunts.
🔔 Set alerts on:
• Bullish Liquidity Sweeps
• Bearish Liquidity Sweeps
You can use this in combination with your own trend filters, or even confluence it with Order Blocks, VWAP, or EMA trend tools.
⸻
💡 What Makes It Original?
• The script doesn’t merely combine standard tools — it builds a cohesive ICT-style detection system using:
• A custom volume-confirmed liquidity sweep filter
• Dynamic FVG rendering with filled logic + performance optimization
• Visual hierarchy to avoid clutter: clean line plots, contextual boxes, and conditional signals
• Highly customizable yet lightweight, making it suitable for fast-paced decision making.
⸻
✅ Notes
• Invite-only script for serious traders interested in Smart Money and ICT concepts.
• Does not repaint signals.
• All visuals are dynamically managed for clarity and performance.
AlgoRhythmica - Liquidity StatsThe AlgoRhythmica - Liquidity Stats is a comprehensive trading indicator designed to analyze and plot liquidity data across various time periods. It uses estimated liquidity data and allows traders to select between 6 different scopes to analyze and view that data.
What is liquidity?
Liquidity refers to how quickly and easily an asset can be bought or sold in the market without affecting its price. High liquidity means that there are many buyers and sellers, and transactions can happen rapidly and smoothly.
Liquidity analysis involves examining where and how liquidity is distributed across different price levels.
Price often moves from liquidity zone to liquidity zone, and therefore, having an idea of whether there's more liquidity above or below price give traders an idea of where price might go next.
How does it work?
Internally, the indicator is simulating a complete liquidity map of the chart and cleverly estimates where traders might face losses (liquidations). It does this by looking at the volume of trading in each candle and projecting where, given certain common trading practices like using 10x or 20x leverage, traders are likely to get squeezed out of their positions. These projected squeeze-out points helps in visualizing potential future price movements, as prices often move towards these areas to balance out. But instead of rendering the liquidity on the main chart, which can get cluttered, this data is viewed in a separate panel through a selection of different scopes.
Keep in mind though, this liquidity data here is just an estimation based on general assumptions, it doesn't have access to actual liquidity data.
However, some risk and leverage amounts are more common than others. People like using those even numbers like 10x, 20x leverage or 1% stop loss etc. And that's why the liquidity estimations in this and other liquidity indicators can still be quite accurate.
Special Feature:
A special feature to this indicator is it's unique eye for 'vector candles'—those high-impact candles signaling significant market moves. It tracks these candles over time to see if the market revisits them, a behavior that can indicate major market maker activities and potential price reversal points.
The 6 different plotting scopes:
Liquidity Dominance:
The Liquidity Dominance is the long liquidity minus the short liquidity. When there's more liquidity above price, price tends to go up. There's also a 50 EMA running through it, indicating whether the liquidity dominance is particularly extended.
There is also a setting for normalizing the dominance to an adjustable EMA. Normalizing means that the value of the EMA will then become the zero-value of the dominance. This can be particularly effective in trending markets because it allows traders to see more clearly how the liquidity deviates from it's EMA.
Split Dominance:
This is simply the long and short liquidity plotted separately with a 200 SMA running through. This gives traders a slight more in-depth look at the liquidity. Looking at the difference between long and short liquidity and using the SMA as a reference, traders can more easily spot a trend shift and whether the liquidity types are about to cross each other.
Stochastic LQ:
Instead of using price data, the Stochastic LQ applies the stochastic oscillator formula to liquidity data. It measures the position of the current liquidity level relative to its high-low range over a specified period. By doing so, it aims to provide a clear picture of whether buyers or sellers are dominating the liquidity landscape within the chosen lookback period.
Liquidations:
This will display the amount of volume that was consumed when price wicked or crossed into a liquidity level on that particular bar. There's also a setting to cumulate the liquidations over the selected period. This will show you whether longs or shorts are suffering the most.
Vector Count:
This tool counts the number of unrecovered vector candles. If there are more to the upside, price is likely to go up. The vector count also has a setting for normalizing the count to an EMA. Some older vectors never get recovered and therefore normalizing the count to an EMA can be a more useful way of focusing on more recent vectors.
Total LQ:
By focusing on the total liquidity without differentiating between long and short positions, this tool simplifies the liquidity landscape. High total liquidity can support the sustainability of current trends, as it shows that there is enough market participation to support the price direction.
Additional Features:
Vector Recovery Dots:
A feature to visually identify recovered vector candles, indicating potential market reaction points for strategic entry or exit decisions.
This is used in combination with any of the tools. It will plot dots whenever a vector candle has been recovered. A recovered vector candle while liquidity is extended, could indicate a top or a bottom.
Dynamic Period Selection:
Choose between aggregating the liquidity over a fixed period (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly etc.) which then stays the same when the user switches timeframe, or choose a dynamic period with a fixed amount of candles which then dynamically shifts when changing time frame. This offers flexibility to look at liquidity over different time frames. Liquidity that falls outside of the selected period is considered gone, as traders eventually close their positions.
Lookback and Sensitivity Adjustment:
Customize the lookback period for volume averages and adjust sensitivity to refine the indicator's responsiveness to volume changes and liquidity calculations.
Leverage Settings:
Input specific leverage amounts to calculate liquidity on. These should be adjusted depending on the chart and timeframe the user is looking at. Decide on up to three different leverage amounts that traders would typically use on the chart and timeframe you're on. The liquidity will then be calculated using that leverage.
Tooltips:
The indicator comes with extensive tooltips for every function, making sure the user understand every part of it.
And as usual, use it together with other market analysis and perhaps a liquidity map of your choice.

ICT LIQUIDITY indicator [Focused Trader]This indicator allows you to draw liquidity according to ICT. Specifically, you can choose to draw liquidity for specific sessions (Asia,New York,London).
Filtering by session
You can chooose to display only liquidities created in specific session. For example, the favourite liquidity is that of Asia. And then, in London market usually grabs it. So you set to display only liquidites of asia.
Session background
You can also display background over specific session, this is very usefull to see how market behaves - liquidity created in Asia is very often taken in London session. You can use any colour you'd like.
Colouring and style of lines
There is an option to choose colour for liquidity lines from different sessions and also choose specific colour for highs and lows. You can also set different styles (dash, dot, arrow, ...) of liquidty lines.
Liquidity Point LinesLiquidity Point Lines
The "Liquidity Point Lines" indicator helps traders identify potential areas of liquidity in the market by drawing lines at specific price levels where significant "liquidation events" may have occurred. These events are determined by analyzing the MACD Histogram and identifying pivot points that suggest strong movements, which are often associated with the flushing out of short or long positions.
How It Works
This indicator leverages the MACD Histogram to gauge the strength of price momentum. It then identifies pivot highs and lows within the MACD Histogram's values. When a significant pivot is detected, the indicator interprets this as a potential "liquidity point" — a price level where a substantial amount of buy or sell orders (often due to liquidations) may have been executed.
The indicator distinguishes between:
Shorts Liquidation Points (Resistance): These are identified when the MACD Histogram registers a pivot high, suggesting a strong upward movement that could have liquidated short positions. Lines are drawn at the high price of the bar where this pivot occurred.
Longs Liquidation Points (Support): Conversely, these are identified when the MACD Histogram registers a pivot low, indicating a strong downward movement that might have liquidated long positions. Lines are drawn at the low price of the bar where this pivot occurred.
Key Features and Settings
The "Liquidity Point Lines" indicator offers extensive customization to tailor its sensitivity and visual representation:
MACD Settings for Liquidity: Configure the underlying MACD calculation with adjustable Fast Length, Slow Length, Source, Signal Smoothing, and MA Types (SMA/EMA) for both the Oscillator and Signal Line.
Liquidity Points Settings:
Pivot Lookback Left/Right: Define the number of bars to look back on either side to identify a pivot in the MACD Histogram.
Dynamic Strength Thresholds: This powerful feature allows the indicator to dynamically calculate the significance of a liquidation event. When enabled, it uses the average absolute histogram value over a specified Dynamic Threshold Lookback Period and applies Small and Medium Threshold Factors to determine the strength (Small, Medium, or Large) of the liquidity point.
Fixed Strength Thresholds: If dynamic thresholds are disabled, you can set fixed numerical values for Small and Medium Histogram Thresholds to define the strength categories.
Color & Style Customization: Assign distinct colors for Small, Medium, and Large liquidation points, choose the Line Style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), and set the Label Text Color.
Label X Offset (To Right): Adjust the horizontal position of the liquidity point labels on your chart.
Liquidity Points Management:
Max Active Liquidity Lines: Control the maximum number of liquidity lines displayed simultaneously on your chart. Older lines are automatically removed to maintain clarity, except for lines that have been "touched" (i.e., price has interacted with that liquidity level).
Visual Interpretation
Each liquidity line is colored according to the strength of the detected liquidation event, making it easy to visually assess the potential significance of the price level. Lines extend to the right, serving as ongoing reference points. When the price interacts with a liquidity line (i.e., "touches" it), the line and its corresponding label are removed, indicating that the liquidity at that level may have been absorbed.
This indicator can be a valuable tool for identifying potential support and resistance levels, understanding market reactions to "liquidation cascades," and informing your trading decisions.
Leonid's Bitcoin Macro & Liquidity Regime Tracker🧠 Macro Overlay Score (Bitcoin Liquidity Regime Tracker)
This indicator combines the most important macroeconomic and on-chain inputs into a single unified score to help investors identify Bitcoin’s long-term cycle phases. Each input is normalized into a 0–100 score and blended using configurable weights to generate a dynamic, forward-looking macro regime tracker.
✅ Best used on the **Bitcoin All Time History Index with Weekly resolution** (`INDEX:BTCUSD`) for maximum historical context and signal clarity.

📈 Why Macro?
Macro liquidity conditions — interest rates, monetary expansion, dollar strength, credit risk — drive Bitcoin cycles . Risk assets like BTC thrive during periods of:
Monetary easing
Liquidity injections
Expansionary central bank policy
This overlay surfaces those periods *before* price follows. It captures cycle shifts in the business cycle, monetary policy, and investor sentiment — making it ideal for long-term allocators, macro-aligned investors, and cycle-focused BTC holders.
🔔 This is **not** designed for short-term or swing trading. It is optimized for **macro trend confirmation and regime awareness** — not fast entry/exit signals.

🧠 Interpreting the Signal
| Signal Type | Meaning |
|-------------------|---------------------------------------------|
| Macro Score ↑ | Liquidity improving → Bullish regime forming |
| Macro Score ↓ | Liquidity deteriorating → Caution warranted |
| Score < 40 & Rising | 🔵 Accumulation cycle likely beginning |
| Score > 70 & Falling | 🟡 Distribution / Macro exhaustion |
| Net Liquidity ↑ | Strong driver of BTC upside historically |
---
❓ FAQ
Q: Why did the Macro Score peak in March 2021, but Bitcoin topped in November?
> The indicator reflects **macro liquidity**, not price momentum. M2 growth slowed, DXY bottomed, and the Fed stopped expanding WALCL by Q1 2021 — all signs of macro exhaustion. BTC continued on **residual momentum**, but the smart money began exiting months earlier.
Q: What does the score range mean?
- 0–25 : Tight liquidity, unfavorable conditions
- 50 : Neutral environment
- 75–100 : Strong easing, liquidity surge
Q: Is this good for short-term signals?
> No. This is a **macro-level overlay**, best used for 3–12 month context shifts, not day trades.
Q: Can I adjust the weights?
> Yes. You can tune the influence of each input to match your thesis (e.g., overweight on-chain, or global liquidity).
Q: Do I need special data access?
> No. All symbols are public TradingView datasets (FRED, CryptoCap, etc.). Just use this on a BTC chart like `BTCUSD`.
---
✅ How to Use
- Load on **`INDEX:BTCUSD`**, set to **Weekly timeframe**
- Confirm long-term bottoms when score is low and rising (Accumulation → Expansion)
- Watch for tops when score is high and falling (Distribution → Capitulation)
- Combine with price structure, realized profit/loss, and market sentiment

Low Liquidity Zones [PhenLabs]📊 Low Liquidity Zones
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
Low Liquidity Zones identifies and highlights periods of unusually low trading volume on your chart, marking areas where price movement occurred with minimal participation. These zones often represent potential support and resistance levels that may be more susceptible to price breakouts or reversals when revisited with higher volume.
Unlike traditional volume analysis tools that focus on high volume spikes, this indicator specializes in detecting low liquidity areas where price moved with minimal resistance. Each zone displays its volume delta, providing insight into buying vs. selling pressure during these thin liquidity periods. This combination of low volume detection and delta analysis helps traders identify potential price inefficiencies and weak structures in the market.
🚀 Points of Innovation
• Identifies low liquidity zones that most volume indicators overlook but which often become significant technical levels
• Displays volume delta within each zone, showing net buying/selling pressure during low liquidity periods
• Dynamically adjusts to different timeframes, allowing analysis across multiple time horizons
• Filters zones by maximum size percentage to focus only on precise price levels
• Maintains historical zones until they expire based on your lookback settings, creating a cumulative map of potential support/resistance areas
🔧 Core Components
• Low Volume Detection: Identifies candles where volume falls below a specified threshold relative to recent average volume, highlighting potential liquidity gaps.
• Volume Delta Analysis: Calculates and displays the net buying/selling pressure within each low liquidity zone, providing insight into the directional bias during low participation periods.
• Dynamic Timeframe Adjustment: Automatically scales analysis periods to match your selected timeframe preference, ensuring consistent identification of low liquidity zones regardless of chart settings.
• Zone Management System: Creates, tracks, and expires low liquidity zones based on your configured settings, maintaining visual clarity on the chart.
🔥 Key Features
• Low Volume Identification: Automatically detects and highlights candles where volume falls below your specified threshold compared to the moving average.
• Volume Delta Visualization: Shows the net volume delta within each zone, providing insight into whether buyers or sellers were dominant despite the low overall volume.
• Flexible Timeframe Analysis: Analyze low liquidity zones across multiple predefined timeframes or use a custom lookback period specific to your trading style.
• Zone Size Filtering: Filters out excessively large zones to focus only on precise price levels, improving signal quality.
• Automatic Zone Expiration: Older zones are automatically removed after your specified lookback period to maintain a clean, relevant chart display.
🎨 Visualization
• Volume Delta Labels: Each zone displays its volume delta with “+” or “-” prefix and K/M suffix for easy interpretation, showing the strength and direction of pressure during the low volume period.
• Persistent Historical Mapping: Zones remain visible for your specified lookback period, creating a cumulative map of potential support and resistance levels forming under low liquidity conditions.

✅ Best Use Cases
• Identifying potential support and resistance levels that formed during periods of thin liquidity
• Spotting price inefficiencies where larger players may have moved price with minimal volume
• Finding low-volume consolidation areas that may serve as breakout or reversal zones when revisited
• Locating potential stop-hunting zones where price moved on minimal participation
• Complementing traditional support/resistance analysis with volume context
⚠️ Limitations
• Requires volume data to function; will not work on symbols where the data provider doesn’t supply volume information
• Low volume zones don’t guarantee future support/resistance - they simply highlight potential areas of interest
• Works best on liquid instruments where volume data has meaningful fluctuations
• Historical analysis is limited by the maximum allowed box count (500) in TradingView
• Volume delta in some markets may not perfectly reflect buying vs. selling pressure due to data limitations
💡 What Makes This Unique
• Focus on Low Volume: Unlike some indicators that highlight high volume events particularly like our very own TLZ indicator, this tool specifically identifies potentially significant price zones that formed with minimal participation.
• Delta + Low Volume Integration: Combines volume delta analysis with low volume detection to reveal directional bias during thin liquidity periods.
• Flexible Lookback System: The dynamic timeframe system allows analysis across any timeframe while maintaining consistent zone identification criteria.
• Support/Resistance Zone Generation: Automatically builds a visual map of potential technical levels based on volume behavior rather than just price patterns.
🔬 How It Works
1. Volume Baseline Calculation:
The indicator calculates a moving average of volume over your specified period to establish a baseline for normal market participation. This adaptive baseline accounts for natural volume fluctuations across different market conditions.
2. Low Volume Detection:
Each candle’s volume is compared to the moving average and flagged when it falls below your threshold divisor. The indicator also filters zones by maximum size to ensure only precise price levels are highlighted.
3. Volume Delta Integration:
For each identified low volume candle, the indicator retrieves the volume delta from a lower timeframe. This delta value is formatted with appropriate scaling (K/M) and displayed within the zone.
4. Zone Management:
New zones are created and tracked in a dynamic array, with each zone extending rightward until it expires. The system automatically removes expired zones based on your lookback period to maintain a clean chart.
💡 Note:
Low liquidity zones often represent areas where price moved with minimal participation, which can indicate potential market inefficiencies. These zones frequently become important support/resistance levels when revisited, especially if approached with higher volume. Consider using this indicator alongside traditional technical analysis tools for comprehensive market context. For best results, experiment with different volume threshold settings based on the specific instrument’s typical volume patterns.
[GrandAlgo] Liquidity HeatmapThe Liquidity Heatmap is a unique indicator designed to identify and highlight zones where price is likely to react based on liquidity dynamics. Unlike tools that analyze volume across all price levels, this indicator focuses specifically on liquidity concentrated around potential reversal zones. By evaluating price action and volume at these critical levels, it identifies areas of heightened interest for traders.
Key Features:
Dynamic Liquidity Zones:
Automatically calculates liquidity zones based on historical price activity, ensuring real-time relevance.
Volume-Based or Candle Interaction Analysis:
Choose between volume-based evaluation to focus on order flow or candle-based interaction for a broader perspective.
Customizable Percentile Threshold:
Filter zones based on their significance by setting a threshold to display only the top liquidity areas.
Lookback Period Control:
Define how many candles the indicator should analyze, allowing you to focus on short-term or long-term liquidity levels.
Color-Coded Visuals:
Liquidity zones are displayed using gradients, with green representing potential bullish zones (below price) and red representing potential bearish zones (above price). Stronger zones are indicated with darker colors.
How It Works:
The Liquidity Heatmap divides the price range into multiple levels, evaluating each level for interaction with historical price data. Liquidity zones are calculated based on:
Volume Concentration: When enabled, the indicator evaluates zones using historical volume, highlighting areas with significant order flow.
Candle Interactions: When volume-based analysis is disabled, the indicator calculates the number of candles interacting with each zone to determine its importance.
Zones that meet the user-defined percentile threshold are highlighted on the chart. Color gradients indicate the strength of each zone, allowing traders to prioritize the most significant areas. Real-time alerts notify users when the price touches these zones, providing actionable insights.
The image illustrates the volume-based analysis feature of the Liquidity Heatmap indicator. Liquidity zones are dynamically highlighted with intuitive color gradients—green for bullish volume and red for bearish volume—providing a clear visual representation of areas with concentrated liquidity at potential reversal points. This feature helps traders focus on zones with significant market activity, enhancing their decision-making process.

🔶 USAGE
Definitions of Liquidity refer to the availability of orders at specific price levels in the market, allowing transactions to occur smoothly.
In the context of Inner Circle Trader's teachings, liquidity mainly relates to stop losses or pending orders and liquidity level/pool, highlighting a concentration of buy or sell orders at specific price levels. Smart money traders, such as banks and other large institutions, often target these liquidity levels/pools to accumulate or distribute their positions.
There are two types of liquidity; Buyside liquidity and Sellside liquidity .
Buyside liquidity represents a level on the chart where short sellers will have their stops positioned, and Sellside liquidity represents a level on the chart where long-biased traders will place their stops.
These areas often act as support or resistance levels and can provide trading opportunities.
When the liquidity levels are breached at which many stop/limit orders are placed have been traded through, the script will create a zone aiming to provide additional insight to figure out the odds of the next price action.
Reversal: It’s common that the price may reverse course and head in the opposite direction, seeking liquidity at the opposite extreme.
Continuation: When the zone is also broken it is a sign for continuation price action.
It's worth noting that ICT concepts are specific to the methodology developed by Michael J. Huddleston and may not align with other trading approaches or strategies.
🔶 DETAILS
Liquidity voids are sudden changes in price when the price jumps from one level to another. Liquidity voids will appear as a single or a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction. These candles typically have large real bodies and very short wicks, suggesting very little disagreement between buyers and sellers. The peculiar thing about liquidity voids is that they almost always fill up.
🔶 ALERTS
When an alert is configured, the user will have the ability to be notified in case;
Liquidity level is detected/updated.
Liquidity level is breached.

ICT SM Trades (liquidity find & grab, MSS, FVG, killzones)Indicator looks for ICT & Smart Money trades on any timeframe. These types of trades reveal how the big institutions, banks and hedge funds trade with big money. If they want their very big positions to be filled they need to find areas in chart where the majority of the money is sitting. Where is it? Where is the majority of orders placed? Right below supports or right above resistance, these orders are stoplosses or stop orders. So they need to push the price to these areas, take all the available stoplosses and trigger all the available stop orders in order to fill their positions and then push the price to the opposite side to make profit (and retail to lose).
Indicator looks for support or resistance (S/R) areas which are represented by dotted lines. This S/R areas are created by minimum of 2 pivot high/low (H/L). Every pivot H/L that creates the S/R area is marked with diamond label. This S/R area is called liquidity. After liquidity is created, indicator looks for liquidity grab (mostly represented by fast spike to this area - it is labeled with x-cross) and then price should go fast to the opposite side of the created structure. Indicator considers as a created structure everything that was created on the other side of the candles from the oldest pivot H/L which creates particular liquidity. For example, if liquidity is created with 3 pivot highs, indicator looks at the oldest pivot high and from there it is looking for the lowest low. Under this lowest low is dashed line which means that this level should be broken with closed candle. This action is called market structure shift (MSS), when the price shifted very fast from highs to lows. After MSS, when the price went fast to one direction, there were some imbalances in prices, in our example selling pressure was a lot bigger than buying pressure and there were created some long untested bearish candles. This untested areas in candles are called imbalances or gaps of fair value gaps (FVG). These are labeled with rectangles. It is expected that these gaps will be tested in near future to "balance the market".
We can put limit orders into these gaps and await some retracement after MSS to open our positions and after the positions are opened we can expect trend continuation in the direction where market structure shift was made (away from liquidity grab). So stoplosses can be placed above/below liquidity grab candle (marked with x-cross).
In settings of the indicator you can set whether only long or only short trades will be shown. Long trades are green and short trades are red. You can set if fair value gaps will be shown as well. The last thing in settings is session. You can set custom session which will be shown as background color on your chart.
