Anomalous Holonomy Field Theory🌌 Anomalous Holonomy Field Theory (AHFT) - Revolutionary Quantum Market Analysis
Where Theoretical Physics Meets Trading Reality
A Groundbreaking Synthesis of Differential Geometry, Quantum Field Theory, and Market Dynamics
🔬 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION - THE MATHEMATICS OF MARKET REALITY
The Anomalous Holonomy Field Theory represents an unprecedented fusion of advanced mathematical physics with practical market analysis. This isn't merely another indicator repackaging old concepts - it's a fundamentally new lens through which to view and understand market structure .
1. HOLONOMY GROUPS (Differential Geometry)
In differential geometry, holonomy measures how vectors change when parallel transported around closed loops in curved space. Applied to markets:
Mathematical Formula:
H = P exp(∮_C A_μ dx^μ)
Where:
P = Path ordering operator
A_μ = Market connection (price-volume gauge field)
C = Closed price path
Market Implementation:
The holonomy calculation measures how price "remembers" its journey through market space. When price returns to a previous level, the holonomy captures what has changed in the market's internal geometry. This reveals:
Hidden curvature in the market manifold
Topological obstructions to arbitrage
Geometric phase accumulated during price cycles
2. ANOMALY DETECTION (Quantum Field Theory)
Drawing from the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly in quantum field theory:
Mathematical Formula:
∂_μ j^μ = (e²/16π²)F_μν F̃^μν
Where:
j^μ = Market current (order flow)
F_μν = Field strength tensor (volatility structure)
F̃^μν = Dual field strength
Market Application:
Anomalies represent symmetry breaking in market structure - moments when normal patterns fail and extraordinary opportunities arise. The system detects:
Spontaneous symmetry breaking (trend reversals)
Vacuum fluctuations (volatility clusters)
Non-perturbative effects (market crashes/melt-ups)
3. GAUGE THEORY (Theoretical Physics)
Markets exhibit gauge invariance - the fundamental physics remains unchanged under certain transformations:
Mathematical Formula:
A'_μ = A_μ + ∂_μΛ
This ensures our signals are gauge-invariant observables , immune to arbitrary market "coordinate changes" like gaps or reference point shifts.
4. TOPOLOGICAL DATA ANALYSIS
Using persistent homology and Morse theory:
Mathematical Formula:
β_k = dim(H_k(X))
Where β_k are the Betti numbers describing topological features that persist across scales.

💭 THE JOURNEY - FROM IMPOSSIBLE THEORY TO TRADING REALITY
Creating AHFT was a mathematical odyssey that pushed the boundaries of what's possible in Pine Script. The journey began with a seemingly impossible question: Could the profound mathematical structures of theoretical physics be translated into practical trading tools?
The Theoretical Challenge:
Months were spent diving deep into differential geometry textbooks, studying the works of Chern, Simons, and Witten. The mathematics of holonomy groups and gauge theory had never been applied to financial markets. Translating abstract mathematical concepts like parallel transport and fiber bundles into discrete price calculations required novel approaches and countless failed attempts.
The Computational Nightmare:
Pine Script wasn't designed for quantum field theory calculations. Implementing the Wilson loop integral, managing complex array structures for anomaly detection, and maintaining computational efficiency while calculating geometric phases pushed the language to its limits. There were moments when the entire project seemed impossible - the script would timeout, produce nonsensical results, or simply refuse to compile.
The Breakthrough Moments:
After countless sleepless nights and thousands of lines of code, breakthrough came through elegant simplifications. The realization that market anomalies follow patterns similar to quantum vacuum fluctuations led to the revolutionary anomaly detection system. The discovery that price paths exhibit holonomic memory unlocked the geometric phase calculations.
The Visual Revolution:
Creating visualizations that could represent 4-dimensional quantum fields on a 2D chart required innovative approaches. The multi-layer holonomy field, recursive quantum portals, and phase space flow representations went through dozens of iterations before achieving the perfect balance of beauty and functionality.
The Balancing Act:
Perhaps the greatest challenge was maintaining mathematical rigor while ensuring practical trading utility. Every formula had to be both theoretically sound and computationally efficient. Every visual had to be both aesthetically pleasing and information-rich.
The result is more than a strategy - it's a synthesis of pure mathematics and market reality that reveals the hidden order within apparent chaos.
📚 INTEGRATED DOCUMENTATION
Once applied to your chart, AHFT includes comprehensive tooltips on every input parameter. The source code contains detailed explanations of the mathematical theory, practical applications, and optimization guidelines. This published description provides the overview - the indicator itself is a complete educational resource.
⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER
While AHFT employs advanced mathematical models derived from theoretical physics, markets remain inherently unpredictable. No mathematical model, regardless of sophistication, can guarantee future results. This strategy uses realistic commission ($0.62 per contract) and slippage (1 tick) in all calculations. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use appropriate risk management and never risk more than you can afford to lose.
🌟 CONCLUSION
The Anomalous Holonomy Field Theory represents a quantum leap in technical analysis - literally. By applying the profound insights of differential geometry, quantum field theory, and gauge theory to market analysis, AHFT reveals structure and opportunities invisible to traditional methods.
From the holonomy calculations that capture market memory to the anomaly detection that identifies phase transitions, from the adaptive intelligence that learns and evolves to the stunning visualizations that make the invisible visible, every component works in mathematical harmony.
This is more than a trading strategy. It's a new lens through which to view market reality.
Trade with the precision of physics. Trade with the power of mathematics. Trade with AHFT.
I hope this serves as a good replacement for Quantum Edge Pro - Adaptive AI until I'm able to fix it.

MMXM ICT [TradingFinder] Market Maker Model PO3 CHoCH/CSID + FVG🔵 Introduction
The MMXM Smart Money Reversal leverages key metrics such as SMT Divergence, Liquidity Sweep, HTF PD Array, Market Structure Shift (MSS) or (ChoCh), CISD, and Fair Value Gap (FVG) to identify critical turning points in the market. Designed for traders aiming to analyze the behavior of major market participants, this setup pinpoints strategic areas for making informed trading decisions.
The document introduces the MMXM model, a trading strategy that identifies market maker activity to predict price movements. The model operates across five distinct stages: original consolidation, price run, smart money reversal, accumulation/distribution, and completion. This systematic approach allows traders to differentiate between buyside and sellside curves, offering a structured framework for interpreting price action.
Market makers play a pivotal role in facilitating these movements by bridging liquidity gaps. They continuously quote bid (buy) and ask (sell) prices for assets, ensuring smooth trading conditions.
By maintaining liquidity, market makers prevent scenarios where buyers are left without sellers and vice versa, making their activity a cornerstone of the MMXM strategy.
SMT Divergence serves as the first signal of a potential trend reversal, arising from discrepancies between the movements of related assets or indices. This divergence is detected when two or more highly correlated assets or indices move in opposite directions, signaling a likely shift in market trends.
Liquidity Sweep occurs when the market targets liquidity in specific zones through false price movements. This process allows major market participants to execute their orders efficiently by collecting the necessary liquidity to enter or exit positions.
The HTF PD Array refers to premium and discount zones on higher timeframes. These zones highlight price levels where the market is in a premium (ideal for selling) or discount (ideal for buying). These areas are identified based on higher timeframe market behavior and guide traders toward lucrative opportunities.
Market Structure Shift (MSS), also referred to as ChoCh, indicates a change in market structure, often marked by breaking key support or resistance levels. This shift confirms the directional movement of the market, signaling the start of a new trend.
CISD (Change in State of Delivery) reflects a transition in price delivery mechanisms. Typically occurring after MSS, CISD confirms the continuation of price movement in the new direction.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) represents zones where price imbalance exists between buyers and sellers. These gaps often act as price targets for filling, offering traders opportunities for entry or exit.
By combining all these metrics, the Smart Money Reversal provides a comprehensive tool for analyzing market behavior and identifying key trading opportunities. It enables traders to anticipate the actions of major players and align their strategies accordingly.
MMBM :
MMSM :
🔵 How to Use
The Smart Money Reversal operates in two primary states: MMBM (Market Maker Buy Model) and MMSM (Market Maker Sell Model). Each state highlights critical structural changes in market trends, focusing on liquidity behavior and price reactions at key levels to offer precise and effective trading opportunities.
The MMXM model expands on this by identifying five distinct stages of market behavior: original consolidation, price run, smart money reversal, accumulation/distribution, and completion. These stages provide traders with a detailed roadmap for interpreting price action and anticipating market maker activity.
🟣 Market Maker Buy Model
In the MMBM state, the market transitions from a bearish trend to a bullish trend. Initially, SMT Divergence between related assets or indices reveals weaknesses in the bearish trend. Subsequently, a Liquidity Sweep collects liquidity from lower levels through false breakouts.
After this, the price reacts to discount zones identified in the HTF PD Array, where major market participants often execute buy orders. The market confirms the bullish trend with a Market Structure Shift (MSS) and a change in price delivery state (CISD). During this phase, an FVG emerges as a key trading opportunity. Traders can open long positions upon a pullback to this FVG zone, capitalizing on the bullish continuation.
🟣 Market Maker Sell Model
In the MMSM state, the market shifts from a bullish trend to a bearish trend. Here, SMT Divergence highlights weaknesses in the bullish trend. A Liquidity Sweep then gathers liquidity from higher levels.
The price reacts to premium zones identified in the HTF PD Array, where major sellers enter the market and reverse the price direction. A Market Structure Shift (MSS) and a change in delivery state (CISD) confirm the bearish trend. The FVG then acts as a target for the price. Traders can initiate short positions upon a pullback to this FVG zone, profiting from the bearish continuation.
Market makers actively bridge liquidity gaps throughout these stages, quoting continuous bid and ask prices for assets. This ensures that trades are executed seamlessly, even during periods of low market participation, and supports the structured progression of the MMXM model.
The price’s reaction to FVG zones in both states provides traders with opportunities to reduce risk and enhance precision. These pullbacks to FVG zones not only represent optimal entry points but also create avenues for maximizing returns with minimal risk.

Change in State of Delivery (CISD) [LuxAlgo]The Change In State Of Delivery (CISD) indicator detects and displays Change in State Of Delivery, a concept related to market structures.
Users can choose between two different CISD detection methods. Various filtering options are also included to filter out less significant CISDs.
🔶 USAGE
A Change in State of Delivery (CISD) is a concept closely related to market structures, where price breaks a level of interest, confirming trends and their continuations from the resulting breakouts.
Unlike more traditional market structures which rely on swing points, CISDs rely on a persistent sequence of candles, using the sequence extremes as breakout levels.
CISDs are detected as follows:
Bullish: The price closes above the opening price of the first candle in a sequence of bearish candles (or its own opening price if it's the only candle).
Bearish: The price closes below the opening price of the first candle in a sequence of bullish candles (or its own opening price if it's the only candle).
If a newly detected CISD aligns with the indicator's current established trend, this confirms a trend continuation (represented with a dashed line).
On the other hand, if a newly detected CISD is in the opposite direction to the detected trend it can confirm a trend reversal (represented with a solid line).
🔹 Liquidity Sweep Detection Method
Using Liquidity Sweeps to update CISD breakout levels allows us to obtain less frequent and more relevant levels that are less sensitive to noisy price variations.
Sweeps are obtained from detected Swing Points , with a higher Swing Length allowing us to obtain longer-term swing levels and potentially more detected sweeps from a specific level over time.
Note: The 'Swing Length' setting is only applicable on the Liquidity Sweep Detection Method and will only change the Liquidity levels.
A Liquidity Sweep is valid when the price reaches an important liquidity level , after which the price closes below/above this level.
Bullish scenario: The price goes below a previous unbroken Swing Low but closes above.
Bearish scenario: The price goes above a previous unbroken Swing High but closes below.
After a Liquidity Sweep has been detected, the last level of importance acts as support/resistance . Breaking this level in the other direction changes the state of delivery .
Users must keep observing the price and significant levels, as highlighted by the white rectangle in the above example.
🔹 CISD Filtering
Users can adjust the following two settings:
Minimum CISD Duration: The minimum length of the 'CISD' line
Maximum Swing Validity: The maximum length of the 'CISD' line; potential CISD lines that aren't broken are deleted when exceeding the limit.
The chart can get cluttered when the Minimum CISD Duration is low. Users could focus on a switch in trend (first solid line CISD ), where the following dashed CISD lines can be seen as extra opportunities/confirmations.
🔶 DETAIL
🔹 Using Different Timeframes
When an important liquidity level (Previous Swing high/low, FVG, etc.) is reached on the higher timeframe, the user can move to a lower timeframe to check whether there is a CISD .
Above example:
The high of the last candle breaches a liquidity level (previous Swing High). The opening price of the last candle acts as a trigger/confirmation level.
A confirmed CISD is seen in a lower timeframe, just after this Liquidity Sweep. This could be an early opportunity.
Later, a confirmed CISD on the higher timeframe is established.
🔶 SETTINGS
Detection Method: Classic or Liquidity Sweep
Swing Length: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
Minimum CISD Duration: The minimum length of the CISD line
Maximum Swing Validity: The maximum length of the CISD line; potential CISD lines that aren't broken are deleted when exceeding the limit.
Fair Value Gaps Setup 01 [TradingFinder] FVG Absorption + CHoCH🔵 Introduction
🟣 Market Structures
Market structures exhibit a fractal and nested nature, which leads us to classify them into internal (minor) and external (major) categories. Definitions of market structure vary, with different methodologies such as Smart Money and ICT offering distinct interpretations.
To identify market structure, the initial step involves examining key highs and lows. An uptrend is characterized by successive highs and lows that are higher than their predecessors. Conversely, a downtrend is marked by successive lows and highs that are lower than their previous counterparts.
🟣 Market Trends and Movements
Market trends consist of two primary types of movements :
Impulsive Movements : These movements align with the main trend and are characterized by high strength and momentum.
Corrective Movements : These movements counter the main trend and are marked by lower strength and momentum.
🟣 Break of Structure (BOS)
In a downtrend, a Break of Structure (BOS) occurs when the price falls below the previous low and establishes a new low (LL). In an uptrend, a BOS, also known as a Market Structure Break (MSB), happens when the price rises above the last high.
To confirm a trend, at least one BOS is necessary, which requires the price to close at least one candle beyond the previous high or low.
🟣 Change of Character (CHOCH)
Change of Character (CHOCH) is a crucial concept in market structure analysis, indicating a shift in trend. A trend concludes with a CHOCH, also referred to as a Market Structure Shift (MSS).
For example, in a downtrend, the price continues to drop with BOS, showcasing the trend's strength. However, when the price rises and exceeds the last high, a CHOCH occurs, signaling a potential transition from a downtrend to an uptrend.
It is essential to note that a CHOCH does not immediately indicate a buy trade. Instead, it is prudent to wait for a BOS in the upward direction to confirm the uptrend. Unlike BOS, a CHOCH confirmation does not require a candle to close; merely breaking the previous high or low with the candle's wick is sufficient.
🟣 Spike | Inefficiency | Imbalance
All these terms mean fast price movement in the shortest possible time.
🟣 Fair Value Gap (FVG)
To pinpoint the "Fair Value Gap" (FVG) on a chart, a detailed candle-by-candle analysis is necessary. This process involves focusing on candles with substantial bodies and evaluating them in relation to the candles immediately before and after them.
Here are the steps :
Identify the Central Candle : Look for a candle with a large body.
Examine Adjacent Candles : The candles before and after this central candle should have long shadows, and their bodies must not overlap with the body of the central candle.
Determine the FVG Range : The distance between the shadows of the first and third candles defines the FVG range.
This method helps in accurately identifying the Fair Value Gap, which is crucial for understanding market inefficiencies and potential price movements.
🟣 Setup
This setup is based on Market Structure and FVG. After a change of character and the formation of FVG in the last lag of the price movement, we are looking for trading positions in the price pullback.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
After forming the setup, you can enter the trade using a pending order or after receiving confirmation. To increase the probability of success, you can adjust the pivot period market structure settings or modify the market movement coefficient in the formation leg of the FVG.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 Setting
Pivot Period of Market Structure Detector :
This parameter allows you to configure the zigzag period based on pivots. Adjusting this helps in accurately detecting order blocks.
Show major Bullish ChoCh Lines :
You can toggle the visibility of the Demand Main Zone and "ChoCh" Origin, and customize their color as needed.
Show major Bearish ChoCh Lines :
Similar to the Demand Main Zone, you can control the visibility and color of the Supply Main Zone and "ChoCh" Origin.
FVG Detector Multiplier Factor :
This feature lets you adjust the size of the moves forming the Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) using the Average True Range (ATR). The default value is 1, suitable for identifying most setups. Adjust this value based on the specific symbol and market for optimal results.
FVG Validity Period :
This parameter defines the validity period of an FVG in terms of the number of candles. By default, an FVG remains valid for up to 15 candles, but you can adjust this period as needed.
Mitigation Level FVG :
This setting establishes the basic level of an FVG. When the price reaches this level, the FVG is considered mitigated.
Level in Low-Risk Zone :
This feature aims to reduce risk by dividing the FVG into two equal areas: "Premium" (upper area) and "Discount" (lower area). For lower risk, ensure that "Demand FVG" is in the "Discount" area and "Supply FVG" in the "Premium" area. This feature is off by default.
Show or Hide :
Given the potential abundance of setups, displaying all on the chart can be overwhelming. By default, only the last setup is shown, but you can enable the option to view all setups.
Alert Settings :
On / Off : Toggle alerts on or off.
Message Frequency : Determine how often alerts are triggered.
Options include :
"All" (alerts every time the function is called)
"Once Per Bar" (alerts only on the first call within the bar)
"Once Per Bar Close" (alerts only at the last script execution of the real-time bar upon closing)
The default setting is "Once Per Bar".
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Set the alert time based on your preferred time zone, such as "UTC-4" for New York time. The default is "UTC".
Display More Info : Optionally show additional details like the price range of the order blocks and the date, hour, and minute in the alert message. Set this to "Off" if you prefer not to receive this information.
Trend Gazer v5# Trend Gazer v5: Professional Multi-Timeframe ICT Analysis System
## 📊 Overview
**Trend Gazer v5** is a comprehensive institutional-grade trading system that synthesizes multiple proven methodologies into a unified analytical framework. This indicator combines **ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts**, **Smart Money Structure**, **Order Block detection**, **Fair Value Gaps**, and **volumetric analysis** to provide traders with high-probability trade setups backed by institutional footprints.
Unlike fragmented indicators that force traders to switch between multiple tools, Trend Gazer v5 delivers a **holistic market view** in a single overlay, eliminating analysis paralysis and enabling confident decision-making.
---
## 🎯 Why This Combination is Necessary
### The Problem with Single-Concept Indicators
Traditional indicators suffer from three critical flaws:
1. **Isolated Context** - Price action, volume, and structure are analyzed separately, creating conflicting signals
2. **Timeframe Blindness** - Single-timeframe analysis misses institutional activity occurring across multiple timeframes
3. **Lagging Confirmation** - Waiting for one indicator to confirm another causes missed entries and late exits
### The Institutional Trading Reality
Professional traders and institutions operate across **multiple dimensions simultaneously**:
- **Structural Context**: Where are we in the market cycle? (CHoCH, SiMS, BoMS)
- **Order Flow**: Where is institutional supply and demand concentrated? (Order Blocks)
- **Inefficiencies**: Where are price imbalances that must be filled? (Fair Value Gaps)
- **Momentum Context**: Is volume expanding or contracting? (VWC/TBOSI)
- **Mean Reversion Points**: Where do institutions expect rebounds? (NPR/BB, EMAs)
**Trend Gazer v5 unifies these dimensions**, creating a complete picture of market microstructure that individual indicators cannot provide.

## 🔬 Core Analytical Framework
### 1️⃣ ICT Donchian Smart Money Structure
**Purpose**: Identify institutional market structure shifts that precede major moves.
**Components**:
- **CHoCH (Change of Character)** - Market structure break signaling trend exhaustion
- `1.CHoCH` (Bullish) - Lower low broken, shift to bullish structure
- `A.CHoCH` (Bearish) - Higher high broken, shift to bearish structure
- **SiMS (Shift in Market Structure)** - Initial structure shift (2nd occurrence)
- **BoMS (Break of Market Structure)** - Continuation structure (3rd+ occurrence)
**Why It's Essential**:
Retail traders react to price changes. Institutions **create** price changes by breaking structure. By detecting these shifts using **Donchian channels** (the purest form of high/low tracking), we identify the exact moments when institutional bias changes.
**Credit**: Based on *ICT Donchian Smart Money Structure* by Zeiierman (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0)
---
### 2️⃣ Multi-Timeframe Order Block Detection
**Purpose**: Map institutional supply/demand zones where price is likely to reverse.
**Methodology**:
Order Blocks represent the **last opposite-direction candle** before a strong move. These zones indicate where institutions accumulated (bullish OB) or distributed (bearish OB) positions.
**Multi-Timeframe Coverage**:
- **1-minute**: Scalping zones for day traders
- **3-minute**: Short-term swing zones
- **15-minute**: Intraday institutional zones
- **60-minute**: Daily swing zones
- **Current TF**: Dynamic adaptation to any chart timeframe
**Key Features**:
- **Bounce Detection** - Identifies when price rebounds from OB zones (Signal 7: 🎯 OB Bounce)
- **Breaker Tracking** - Monitors when OBs are violated, converting bullish OBs to resistance and vice versa
- **Visual Rendering** - Color-coded boxes with transparency showing OB strength
- **OB Direction Filter** - Blocks contradictory signals (no SELL in bullish OB, no BUY in bearish OB)
**Why MTF Order Blocks Matter**:
A 60-minute Order Block represents institutional positioning at a larger timeframe. When combined with a 3-minute entry signal, you're trading **with** the big players, not against them.
---
### 3️⃣ Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
**Purpose**: Identify price inefficiencies that institutional traders must eventually fill.
**What Are FVGs?**:
Fair Value Gaps occur when price moves so rapidly that it leaves an **imbalance** - a gap between the high of one candle and the low of the candle two bars later (or vice versa). Institutions view these as inefficient pricing that must be corrected.
**Detection Logic**:
```
Bullish FVG: high < low → Gap up = Bearish imbalance (expect downward fill)
Bearish FVG: low > high → Gap down = Bullish imbalance (expect upward fill)
```
**Visual Design**:
- **Bullish FVG**: Green boxes (support zones where price should bounce)
- **Bearish FVG**: Red boxes (resistance zones where price should reject)
- **Mitigation Tracking**: FVGs disappear when filled, signaling completion
- **Volume Attribution**: Each FVG tracks associated buying/selling volume
**Why FVGs Are Critical**:
Institutions operate on **efficiency**. Gaps represent inefficiency. When price returns to fill a gap, it's not random - it's institutional traders **correcting market inefficiency**. Trading into FVG fills offers exceptional risk/reward.
---
### 4️⃣ Volumetric Weighted Cloud (VWC/TBOSI)
**Purpose**: Detect momentum shifts and trend strength using volume-weighted price action.
**Mechanism**:
VWC applies **volatility weighting** to moving averages, creating a dynamic cloud that expands during high-volatility trends and contracts during consolidation.
**Multi-Timeframe Analysis**:
- **1m, 3m, 5m**: Micro-scalping momentum
- **15m**: Intraday trend confirmation
- **60m, 240m**: Swing trade trend validation
**Signal Generation**:
- **VWC Switch (Signal 2)**: When cloud color flips (red → green or green → red), indicating momentum reversal
- **VWC Status Table**: Real-time display of trend direction across all timeframes
**Why Volume-Weighting Matters**:
Traditional moving averages treat all bars equally. VWC gives **more weight to high-volume bars**, ensuring that signals reflect actual institutional participation, not low-volume noise.
---
### 5️⃣ Non-Repaint STDEV (NPR) & Bollinger Bands
**Purpose**: Identify extreme mean-reversion points without repainting.
**Problem with Traditional Indicators**:
Many indicators **repaint** - they change past values when new data arrives, making backtests misleading. NPR uses **lookahead bias prevention** to ensure signals remain fixed.
**Configuration**:
- **15-minute NPR/BB**: Intraday volatility bands
- **60-minute NPR/BB**: Swing trade extremes
- **Multiple Kernel Options**: Exponential, Simple, Double Exponential, Triple Exponential for different smoothing profiles
**Signal Logic (Signal 8)**:
- **BUY**: Price closes **inside** lower band (not just touching it) → Extreme oversold with institutional absorption likely
- **SELL**: Price closes **inside** upper band → Extreme overbought with institutional distribution likely
**Why NPR is Superior**:
Repainting indicators give traders false confidence in backtests. NPR ensures every signal you see in history is **exactly** what a trader would have seen in real-time.
---
### 6️⃣ 💎 STRONG CHoCH Pattern Detection
**Purpose**: Identify the highest-probability setups when multiple CHoCH confirmations align within a tight timeframe.
**Pattern Logic**:
**STRONG BUY Pattern**:
```
1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH (within 20 bars)
```
This sequence indicates:
1. Initial bullish structure shift
2. Bearish retest (pullback)
3. **Renewed bullish confirmation** - Institutions are re-accumulating after shaking out weak hands
**STRONG SELL Pattern**:
```
A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH (within 20 bars)
```
This sequence indicates:
1. Initial bearish structure shift
2. Bullish retest (dead cat bounce)
3. **Renewed bearish confirmation** - Institutions are re-distributing after trapping longs
**Visual Display**:
```
💎 BUY
```
- **0% transparency** (fully opaque) - Maximum visual priority
- Displayed **immediately** when pattern completes (no additional signal required)
- Independent of Market Structure filter (pattern itself is the confirmation)
**Why STRONG Signals Are Different**:
- **Triple Confirmation**: Three structure shifts eliminate false breakouts
- **Tight Timeframe**: 20-bar window ensures institutional conviction, not random noise
- **Automatic Display**: No waiting for price action - the pattern itself triggers the alert
- **Historical Validation**: This specific sequence has proven to precede major institutional moves
**Risk Management**:
STRONG signals offer the best risk/reward because:
1. Stop loss can be placed beyond the middle CHoCH (tight risk)
2. Target can be set at next major structure level (large reward)
3. Pattern failure is immediately evident (quick exit if wrong)
---
### 7️⃣ Multi-EMA Framework
**Purpose**: Provide dynamic support/resistance and trend context.
**EMA Configuration**:
- **EMA 7**: Micro-trend (scalping)
- **EMA 20**: Short-term trend
- **EMA 50**: Institutional pivot (Signal 6: EMA50 Bounce)
- **EMA 100**: Mid-term trend filter
- **EMA 200**: Major institutional support/resistance
- **EMA 400, 800**: Macro trend context
**Visual Fills**:
- Color-coded fills between EMAs create **visual trend strength zones**
- Convergence = consolidation
- Divergence = trending market
**Why 7 EMAs?**:
Each EMA represents a different **participant timeframe**:
- EMA 7/20: Day traders and scalpers
- EMA 50/100: Swing traders
- EMA 200/400/800: Position traders and institutions
When all EMAs align, **all participant types agree on direction** - the highest-probability trend trades.

## 🚀 8-Signal Trading System
Trend Gazer v5 employs **8 distinct signal conditions** (all enabled by default), each designed to capture different market regimes:
### ⭐ Signal Hierarchy & Trading Philosophy
**IMPORTANT**: Not all signals are created equal. The indicator displays a hierarchy of signal quality:
**PRIMARY SIGNALS (Trade These)**:
- 💎 **STRONG BUY/SELL** - Triple-confirmed CHoCH patterns (highest priority)
- 🌟 **Star Signals (S7, S8)** - High-probability institutional zone reactions
- Signal 7: Order Block Bounce
- Signal 8: 60m NPR/BB Bounce
**AUXILIARY SIGNALS (Confirmation & Context)**:
- **Signals 1-6** - Use these as:
- **Confirmation** for Star Signals (when multiple signals align)
- **Context** for understanding market conditions
- **Early warnings** of potential moves (validate before trading)
- **Additional filters** (e.g., "only trade Star Signals that also have Signal 1")
**Trading Recommendation**:
- **Conservative Traders**: Trade ONLY 💎 STRONG and 🌟 Star Signals
- **Moderate Traders**: Trade Star Signals + validated auxiliary signals (2+ signal confirmation)
- **Active Traders**: Use all signals with proper risk management
The visual transparency system reinforces this hierarchy:
- 0% transparent = STRONG (💎) - Highest conviction
- 50% transparent = Star (🌟) + OB signals - High quality
- 70% transparent = Auxiliary (S1-S6) - Supplementary information
### Signal 1: RSI Shift + Structure (AND Logic)
**Strictest Signal** - Requires both RSI momentum confirmation AND structure change.
- **Use Case**: High-conviction trades in trending markets
- **Frequency**: Least frequent, highest accuracy
### Signal 2: VWC Switch (OR Logic)
**Most Frequent Signal** - Triggers on any VWC color flip across monitored timeframes.
- **Use Case**: Capturing early momentum shifts
- **Frequency**: Most frequent, good for active traders
### Signal 3: Structure Change
**Bar Color Change with RSI Confirmation** - Detects when candle color shifts with supporting RSI.
- **Use Case**: Trend continuation trades
- **Frequency**: Moderate
### Signal 4: BB Breakout + RSI
**Bollinger Band Breakout Reversal** - Price breaks band then immediately reverses.
- **Use Case**: Fade false breakouts
- **Frequency**: Moderate, excellent risk/reward
### Signal 5: BB/EMA50 Break
**Aggressive Breakout Signal** - Price breaks both BB and EMA50 simultaneously.
- **Use Case**: Momentum breakout trades
- **Frequency**: Moderate-high
### Signal 6: EMA50 Bounce Reversal
**Mean Reversion at EMA50** - Price touches EMA50 and bounces.
- **Use Case**: Trading pullbacks in strong trends
- **Frequency**: Moderate, reliable
### Signal 7: 🌟 OB Bounce (Star Signal)
**Order Block Bounce** - Price enters OB zone and reverses.
- **Use Case**: Institutional zone reactions
- **Frequency**: Low, but extremely high quality
- **Special Features**:
- 🎯 **OB Bounce Label**: `🌟 🎯 BUY/SELL ` - Actual Signal 7 bounce from visible OB
- 📍 **In OB Label**: `📍 BUY/SELL ` - Other signals (S1-6, S8) occurring inside an OB zone
- **OB Direction Filter**: Blocks contradictory signals (no SELL in bullish OB, no BUY in bearish OB)
### Signal 8: 🌟 60m NPR/BB Bounce (Star Signal)
**Extreme Mean-Reversion** - Price closes **inside** 60m NPR/BB bands at extremes.
- **Use Case**: Capturing institutional absorption at extremes
- **Frequency**: Low, exceptional win rate
- **Special Logic**: Candle close must be **INSIDE** bands, not just touching (prevents false breakouts)
### 💎 STRONG Signals (Bonus)
**CHoCH Pattern Completion** - Triple-confirmed structure shifts.
- **STRONG BUY**: `1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH (≤20 bars)`
- **STRONG SELL**: `A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH (≤20 bars)`
- **Display**: Immediate upon pattern completion (independent signal)
- **Use Case**: Highest-conviction institutional trend shifts
---
## 🎨 Visual Design Philosophy
### Signal Hierarchy via Transparency
**0% Transparency (Opaque)**:
- 💎 **STRONG BUY/SELL** - Highest priority, institutional pattern confirmation
**50% Transparency**:
- 🌟 **Star Signals** (S7, S8) - High-quality mean reversion
- 🎯 **OB Bounce** - Institutional zone reaction
- 📍 **In OB** - Enhanced signal in institutional zone
- **CHoCH Labels** (1.CHoCH, A.CHoCH) - Structure shift markers
**70% Transparency**:
- **Regular Signals** (S1-S6) - Standard trade setups
This visual hierarchy ensures traders **instantly recognize** high-priority setups without analysis paralysis.
### Color Scheme: Japanese Candlestick Convention
**Bullish = Red | Bearish = Blue/Green**
This follows traditional Japanese candlestick methodology where:
- **Red (Yang)**: Positive energy, rising prices, bullish
- **Blue/Green (Yin)**: Negative energy, falling prices, bearish
While Western conventions often reverse this, we maintain **ICT and institutional conventions** for consistency with professional trading rooms.
---
## 📡 Alert System
### Any Alert (Automatic)

5. 📍 **BUY (in OB)** - Any signal inside Bullish Order Block
6. 📍 **SELL (in OB)** - Any signal inside Bearish Order Block
7. **Bullish CHoCH** - Market structure shift to bullish
8. **Bearish CHoCH** - Market structure shift to bearish
**Format**: `TICKER TIMEFRAME EventName`
**Example**: `BTCUSDT 5 💎 STRONG BUY`
### Individual alertcondition() Options
Create custom alerts for specific events:

---
## 📚 How to Use
### For Scalpers (1m-5m Charts)
1. Enable **1m and 3m Order Blocks**
2. Watch for **Signal 2 (VWC Switch)** or **Signal 5 (BB/EMA50 Break)**
3. Confirm with **1m/3m MTF OB** as support/resistance
4. Use **FVGs** for micro-target setting
5. Set alerts for **Star BUY/SELL** for highest-quality scalps
### For Day Traders (15m-60m Charts)
1. Enable **15m and 60m Order Blocks**
2. Wait for **CHoCH** to establish bias
3. Trade **Signal 7 (OB Bounce)** or **Signal 8 (60m NPR/BB Bounce)**
4. Use **EMA 50/100** as dynamic stop placement
5. Set alerts for **💎 STRONG BUY/SELL** for major moves
### For Swing Traders (4H-Daily Charts)
1. Enable **60m Order Blocks** (will render as larger zones on HTF)
2. Wait for **Market Structure confirmation** (CHoCH)
3. Focus on **Signal 1 (RSI Shift + Structure)** for highest conviction
4. Use **EMA 200/400/800** for macro trend alignment
5. Set alerts for **Bullish/Bearish CHoCH** to catch structure shifts early
### Universal Strategy (Recommended Approach)
1. **Focus on Primary Signals First** - Build your track record with 💎 STRONG and 🌟 Star Signals only
2. **Wait for Market Structure** - Never trade against CHoCH direction
3. **Use Auxiliary Signals for Confirmation** - When a Star Signal appears, check if auxiliary signals (S1-6) also confirm
4. **Respect Order Blocks** - Fade signals that contradict OB direction
5. **Use FVGs for Targets** - Price gravitates toward unfilled gaps
6. **Gradually Incorporate Auxiliary Signals** - Once profitable with primary signals, experiment with validated auxiliary setups
### Signal Quality Statistics (Typical Observation)
Based on common market behavior patterns:
**💎 STRONG Signals**:
- Frequency: Rare (1-3 per week on daily charts)
- Win Rate: Very High (70-85% when proper risk management applied)
- Risk/Reward: Excellent (1:3 to 1:5+ typical)
**🌟 Star Signals (S7, S8)**:
- Frequency: Moderate (2-5 per day on lower timeframes)
- Win Rate: High (60-75% when aligned with structure)
- Risk/Reward: Good (1:2 to 1:4 typical)
**Auxiliary Signals (S1-6)**:
- Frequency: High (multiple per hour on active timeframes)
- Win Rate: Moderate (50-65% standalone, higher when used as confirmation)
- Risk/Reward: Variable (1:1 to 1:3 typical)
**Key Insight**: Trading only primary signals reduces trade frequency but dramatically improves consistency and psychological ease.

# Trend Gazer v5: プロフェッショナル・マルチタイムフレームICT分析システム
## 📊 概要
**Trend Gazer v5** は、複数の実証済み手法を統合した分析フレームワークを提供する、包括的な機関投資家グレードの取引システムです。このインジケーターは、**ICT（Inner Circle Trader）コンセプト**、**スマートマネー構造**、**オーダーブロック検知**、**フェアバリューギャップ**、および**出来高分析**を組み合わせて、機関投資家の足跡に裏打ちされた高確率の取引セットアップをトレーダーに提供します。
断片的なインジケーターは、トレーダーに複数のツールを切り替えることを強いますが、Trend Gazer v5は**包括的な市場ビュー**を単一のオーバーレイで提供し、分析麻痺を排除して自信ある意思決定を可能にします。
---
## 🎯 なぜこの組み合わせが必要なのか
### 単一コンセプトインジケーターの問題点
従来のインジケーターは3つの致命的な欠陥を抱えています：
1. **孤立したコンテキスト** - 価格、出来高、構造が個別に分析され、矛盾するシグナルを生成
2. **タイムフレームの盲目性** - 単一タイムフレーム分析は、複数のタイムフレームで発生する機関投資家の活動を見逃す
3. **遅れた確認** - あるインジケーターが別のインジケーターの確認を待つことで、エントリーを逃し、エグジットが遅れる
### 機関投資家の取引実態
プロのトレーダーや機関投資家は、**複数の次元を同時に**操作します：
- **構造的コンテキスト**: 市場サイクルのどこにいるのか？（CHoCH、SiMS、BoMS）
- **オーダーフロー**: 機関投資家の需要と供給が集中しているのはどこか？（オーダーブロック）
- **非効率性**: 埋めなければならない価格の不均衡はどこか？（フェアバリューギャップ）
- **モメンタムコンテキスト**: 出来高は拡大しているか縮小しているか？（VWC/TBOSI）
- **平均回帰ポイント**: 機関投資家がリバウンドを期待する場所はどこか？（NPR/BB、EMA）
**Trend Gazer v5はこれらの次元を統合**し、個別のインジケーターでは提供できない市場マイクロ構造の完全な全体像を作成します。
---
## 🔬 コア分析フレームワーク
### 1️⃣ ICT ドンチャン・スマートマネー構造
**目的**: 大きな動きに先行する機関投資家の市場構造シフトを識別する。
**コンポーネント**:
- **CHoCH (Change of Character / 性質の変化)** - トレンド疲弊を示す市場構造のブレイク
- `1.CHoCH`（強気） - 直近安値のブレイク、強気構造へのシフト
- `A.CHoCH`（弱気） - 直近高値のブレイク、弱気構造へのシフト
- **SiMS (Shift in Market Structure / 市場構造のシフト)** - 初期構造シフト（2回目の発生）
- **BoMS (Break of Market Structure / 市場構造のブレイク)** - 継続構造（3回目以降の発生）
**なぜ不可欠なのか**:
小売トレーダーは価格変化に反応します。機関投資家は構造を破ることで価格変化を**作り出します**。**ドンチャンチャネル**（高値/安値追跡の最も純粋な形式）を使用してこれらのシフトを検出することで、機関投資家のバイアスが変化する正確な瞬間を特定します。
**クレジット**: Zeiierman氏の*ICT Donchian Smart Money Structure*に基づく（CC BY-NC-SA 4.0）
---
### 2️⃣ マルチタイムフレーム・オーダーブロック検知
**目的**: 価格が反転する可能性が高い機関投資家の需給ゾーンをマッピングする。
**方法論**:
オーダーブロックは、強い動きの前の**最後の反対方向ローソク足**を表します。これらのゾーンは、機関投資家がポジションを蓄積（強気OB）または分配（弱気OB）した場所を示します。
**マルチタイムフレームカバレッジ**:
- **1分足**: デイトレーダー向けスキャルピングゾーン
- **3分足**: 短期スイングゾーン
- **15分足**: イントラデイ機関投資家ゾーン
- **60分足**: デイリースイングゾーン
- **現在のTF**: 任意のチャートタイムフレームへの動的適応
**主要機能**:
- **バウンス検知** - OBゾーンから価格がリバウンドする時を識別（シグナル7: 🎯 OBバウンス）
- **ブレーカー追跡** - OBが破られた時を監視し、強気OBを抵抗に、弱気OBをサポートに変換
- **ビジュアルレンダリング** - OBの強度を示す透明度付きの色分けされたボックス
- **OB方向フィルター** - 矛盾するシグナルをブロック（強気OBでSELLなし、弱気OBでBUYなし）
**なぜMTFオーダーブロックが重要か**:
60分足のオーダーブロックは、より大きなタイムフレームでの機関投資家のポジショニングを表します。3分足のエントリーシグナルと組み合わせることで、大口プレイヤーと**同じ方向**で取引することになります。
---
### 3️⃣ フェアバリューギャップ（FVG）検知
**目的**: 機関投資家が最終的に埋めなければならない価格の非効率性を識別する。
**FVGとは何か？**:
フェアバリューギャップは、価格があまりにも急速に動いて**不均衡**を残す時に発生します - 1本のローソク足の高値と2本後のローソク足の安値の間のギャップ（またはその逆）。機関投資家はこれらを修正されなければならない非効率的な価格設定と見なします。
**検知ロジック**:
```
強気FVG: high < low → ギャップアップ = 弱気の不均衡（下方フィル予想）
弱気FVG: low > high → ギャップダウン = 強気の不均衡（上方フィル予想）
```
**ビジュアルデザイン**:
- **強気FVG**: 緑のボックス（価格がバウンドすべきサポートゾーン）
- **弱気FVG**: 赤のボックス（価格が拒否されるべき抵抗ゾーン）
- **ミティゲーション追跡**: FVGは埋められると消え、完了を示す
- **出来高帰属**: 各FVGは関連する買い/売り出来高を追跡
**なぜFVGが重要か**:
機関投資家は**効率性**で動きます。ギャップは非効率性を表します。価格がギャップを埋めるために戻る時、それはランダムではありません - 機関投資家が**市場の非効率性を修正**しているのです。FVGフィルへの取引は卓越したリスク/リワードを提供します。
---
### 4️⃣ 出来高加重クラウド（VWC/TBOSI）
**目的**: 出来高加重プライスアクションを使用してモメンタムシフトとトレンド強度を検出する。
**メカニズム**:
VWCは移動平均に**ボラティリティ加重**を適用し、高ボラティリティトレンド中に拡大し、コンソリデーション中に縮小する動的クラウドを作成します。
**マルチタイムフレーム分析**:
- **1m、3m、5m**: マイクロスキャルピングモメンタム
- **15m**: イントラデイトレンド確認
- **60m、240m**: スイングトレードトレンド検証
**シグナル生成**:
- **VWCスイッチ（シグナル2）**: クラウドの色が反転した時（赤→緑または緑→赤）、モメンタム反転を示す
- **VWCステータステーブル**: 全タイムフレームのトレンド方向のリアルタイム表示
**なぜ出来高加重が重要か**:
従来の移動平均はすべてのバーを等しく扱います。VWCは**高出来高バーに重みを与え**、シグナルが低出来高のノイズではなく、実際の機関投資家の参加を反映することを保証します。
---
### 5️⃣ ノンリペイントSTDEV（NPR）＆ボリンジャーバンド
**目的**: リペイントなしで極端な平均回帰ポイントを識別する。
**従来のインジケーターの問題点**:
多くのインジケーターは**リペイント**します - 新しいデータが到着すると過去の値を変更し、バックテストを誤解させます。NPRは**先読みバイアス防止**を使用して、シグナルが固定されたままであることを保証します。
**設定**:
- **15分足NPR/BB**: イントラデイボラティリティバンド
- **60分足NPR/BB**: スイングトレード極値
- **複数のカーネルオプション**: 指数、単純、二重指数、三重指数 - 異なる平滑化プロファイル
**シグナルロジック（シグナル8）**:
- **BUY**: 価格が下部バンドの**内側**でクローズ（触れるだけではない）→ 極端な売られ過ぎで機関投資家の吸収が可能性高い
- **SELL**: 価格が上部バンドの**内側**でクローズ → 極端な買われ過ぎで機関投資家の分配が可能性高い
**なぜNPRが優れているか**:
リペイントインジケーターはトレーダーにバックテストで誤った自信を与えます。NPRは、履歴で見るすべてのシグナルが、トレーダーがリアルタイムで見たであろうもの**そのもの**であることを保証します。
---
### 6️⃣ 💎 STRONG CHoChパターン検知
**目的**: 短い時間枠内で複数のCHoCH確認が整列した時の最高確率セットアップを識別する。
**パターンロジック**:
**STRONG BUYパターン**:
```
1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH（20バー以内）
```
このシーケンスは以下を示します：
1. 初期強気構造シフト
2. 弱気リテスト（プルバック）
3. **更新された強気確認** - 機関投資家は弱い手を振り落とした後に再蓄積中
**STRONG SELLパターン**:
```
A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH（20バー以内）
```
このシーケンスは以下を示します：
1. 初期弱気構造シフト
2. 強気リテスト（デッドキャットバウンス）
3. **更新された弱気確認** - 機関投資家はロングを罠にかけた後に再分配中
**ビジュアル表示**:
```
💎 BUY
```
- **0%透明度**（完全不透明） - 最大の視覚的優先度
- パターン完成時に**即座に**表示（追加シグナル不要）
- 市場構造フィルターから独立（パターン自体が確認）
**なぜSTRONGシグナルが異なるか**:
- **三重確認**: 3つの構造シフトが誤ったブレイクアウトを排除
- **短い時間枠**: 20バーウィンドウがランダムなノイズではなく、機関投資家の確信を保証
- **自動表示**: 価格アクションを待たない - パターン自体がアラートをトリガー
- **歴史的検証**: この特定のシーケンスは主要な機関投資家の動きに先行することが証明されている
**リスク管理**:
STRONGシグナルは最高のリスク/リワードを提供します：
1. ストップロスは中央のCHoCHの外に配置可能（タイトなリスク）
2. ターゲットは次の主要構造レベルに設定可能（大きなリワード）
3. パターン失敗は即座に明らか（間違っていればクイックエグジット）

## 🚀 8シグナル取引システム
Trend Gazer v5は**8つの異なるシグナル条件**（すべてデフォルトで有効）を採用しており、それぞれが異なる市場レジームを捕捉するように設計されています：
### ⭐ シグナル階層＆取引哲学
**重要**: すべてのシグナルが同じではありません。インジケーターはシグナル品質の階層を表示します：
**プライマリーシグナル（これを取引する）**:
- 💎 **STRONG BUY/SELL** - 三重CHoChパターン（最優先）
- 🌟 **スターシグナル（S7、S8）** - 高確率の機関投資家ゾーン反応
- シグナル7: オーダーブロックバウンス
- シグナル8: 60m NPR/BBバウンス
**補助シグナル（確認とコンテキスト）**:
- **シグナル1-6** - これらを以下として使用：
- スターシグナルの**確認**（複数のシグナルが整列した時）
- 市場状況を理解するための**コンテキスト**
- 潜在的な動きの**早期警告**（取引前に検証）
- **追加フィルター**（例：「シグナル1も出ているスターシグナルのみ取引」）
**取引推奨**:
- **保守的トレーダー**: 💎 STRONGと🌟スターシグナル**のみ**取引
- **中程度トレーダー**: スターシグナル + 検証された補助シグナル（2+シグナル確認）
- **アクティブトレーダー**: 適切なリスク管理ですべてのシグナルを使用
視覚的透明度システムはこの階層を強化します：
- 0%透明度 = STRONG（💎） - 最高の確信
- 50%透明度 = スター（🌟）+ OBシグナル - 高品質
- 70%透明度 = 補助（S1-S6） - 補足情報
### シグナル1: RSIシフト + 構造（ANDロジック）
**最も厳格なシグナル** - RSIモメンタム確認と構造変化の両方が必要。
- **使用例**: トレンド市場での高確信取引

- **使用例**: トレンド継続取引
- **頻度**: 中程度
- **分類**:
### シグナル4: BBブレイクアウト + RSI
**ボリンジャーバンドブレイクアウト反転** - 価格がバンドを破った後すぐに反転。

- **分類**:
- **特別機能**:
- 🎯 **OBバウンスラベル**: `🌟 🎯 BUY/SELL ` - 可視OBからの実際のシグナル7バウンス
- 📍 **In OBラベル**: `📍 BUY/SELL ` - OBゾーン内で発生する他のシグナル（S1-6、S8）
- **OB方向フィルター**: 矛盾するシグナルをブロック（強気OBでSELLなし、弱気OBでBUYなし）
### シグナル8: 🌟 60m NPR/BBバウンス（スターシグナル）

---
## 🎨 ビジュアルデザイン哲学
### 透明度によるシグナル階層
**0%透明度（不透明）**:
- 💎 **STRONG BUY/SELL** - 最優先、機関投資家パターン確認
**50%透明度**:
- 🌟 **スターシグナル**（S7、S8） - 高品質平均回帰
- 🎯 **OBバウンス** - 機関投資家ゾーン反応

**70%透明度**:
- **通常シグナル**（S1-S6） - 標準取引セットアップ
この視覚的階層により、トレーダーは分析麻痺なしに高優先度セットアップを**即座に認識**できます。
### カラースキーム: 日本式ローソク足慣例
**強気 = 赤 | 弱気 = 青/緑**
これは伝統的な日本式ローソク足方法論に従います：
- **赤（陽）**: ポジティブエネルギー、上昇価格、強気
- **青/緑（陰）**: ネガティブエネルギー、下降価格、弱気
西洋の慣例はしばしばこれを逆にしますが、プロの取引ルームとの一貫性のために**ICTと機関投資家の慣例**を維持します。

ICS🏛️ Institutional Confluence Suite (ICS) Indicator
The Institutional Confluence Suite is a powerful and highly customizable TradingView indicator built to help traders identify key institutional trading concepts across multiple timeframes. It visualizes essential market components like Market Structures (MS), Order Blocks (OB)/Breaker Blocks (BB), Liquidity Zones, and Volume Profile, providing a confluence of institutional price action data.
📈 Key Features & Components
1. Market Structures (MS)
Purpose: Automatically identifies and labels shifts in market trends (Market Structure Shift, MSS) and continuations (Break of Structure, BOS).
Timeframe Detection: You can select detection across Short Term, Intermediate Term, or Long Term swings to match your trading horizon.
Visualization: Plots colored lines (Bullish: Teal, Bearish: Red) to mark the structures and optional text labels (BOS/MSS) for clear identification.
2. Order & Breaker Blocks (OB/BB)
Purpose: Detects and projects potential Supply and Demand zones based on recent price action that led to a swing high or low.
Block Types: Distinguishes between standard Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks (OBs that fail to hold and are traded through, often serving as support/resistance in the opposite direction).
Customization:
Detection Term: Adjusts sensitivity (Short, Intermediate, Long Term).
Display Limit: Sets the maximum number of recent Bullish and Bearish blocks to display.
Price Reference: Option to use the Candle Body (Open/Close) or Candle Wicks (High/Low) to define the block boundaries.
Visualization: Displays blocks as colored boxes (Bullish: Green, Bearish: Red) extending into the future, with a dotted line marking the 50% equilibrium level. Breaker Blocks are indicated by a change in color/line style upon being broken.
3. Buyside & Sellside Liquidity (BSL/SSL)
Purpose: Highlights areas where retail stops/limit orders are likely clustered, often represented by a series of relatively equal highs (Buyside Liquidity) or lows (Sellside Liquidity).
Detection Term: Adjustable sensitivity (Short, Intermediate, Long Term).
Margin: Uses a margin (derived from ATR) to group similar swing points into a single liquidity zone.
Visualization: Plots a line and text label marking the swing point, and a box indicating the clustered liquidity zone.
4. Liquidity Voids (LV) / Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Purpose: Identifies areas where price moved sharply and inefficiency was created, often referred to as Fair Value Gaps or Imbalances. These are price ranges where minimal trading volume occurred.
Threshold: Uses a multiplier applied to the 200-period ATR to filter for significant gaps.
Mode: Can be set to Present (only show voids near the current price) or Historical (show all detected voids).
Visualization: Fills the price gap with colored boxes (Bullish/Bearish zones), often segmented to represent the price delivery across the gap.
5. Enhanced Liquidity Detection
Purpose: A complementary feature that uses volume and price action to highlight areas of high liquidity turnover, potentially indicating stronger Support and Resistance zones.
Calculation: Utilizes a volume-weighted approach to color-grade liquidity zones based on their significance.
Visualization: Plots shaded boxes (gradient-colored) around swing highs/lows, with text displaying the normalized volume strength.
6. Swing Highs/Lows
Purpose: Directly marks the price points identified as Swing Highs and Swing Lows based on the lookback periods.
Timeframe Detection: Can be enabled for Short Term, Intermediate Term, or Long Term swings.
Visualization: Plots a small colored dot/label (e.g., "⦁") at the swing point.
This indicator is an invaluable tool for traders employing ICT (Inner Circle Trader), Smart Money Concepts (SMC), or general price action strategies, as it automatically aggregates and displays these critical structural and liquidity elements.
Holographic Market Microstructure | AlphaNattHolographic Market Microstructure | AlphaNatt
A multidimensional, holographically-rendered framework designed to expose the invisible forces shaping every candle — liquidity voids, smart money footprints, order flow imbalances, and structural evolution — in real time.
---
📘 Overview
The Holographic Market Microstructure (HMS) is not a traditional indicator. It’s a visual architecture built to interpret the true anatomy of the market — a living data structure that fuses price, volume, and liquidity into one coherent holographic layer.
Instead of reacting to candles, HMS visualizes the market’s underlying micro-dynamics : where liquidity hides, where volume flows, and how structure morphs as smart money accumulates or distributes.
Designed for system-based traders, volume analysts, and liquidity theorists who demand to see the unseen — the invisible grid driving every price movement.
---
🔬 Core Analytical Modules
Microstructure Analysis
Deconstructs each bar’s internal composition to identify imbalance between aggressive buying and selling. Using a configurable Imbalance Ratio and Liquidity Threshold , the algorithm marks low-liquidity zones and price inefficiencies as “liquidity voids.”
• Detects hidden supply/demand gaps.
• Quantifies micro-level absorption and exhaustion.
• Reveals flow compression and expansion phases.
Smart Money Tracking
Applies advanced volume-rate-of-change and price momentum relationships to map institutional activity.
• Accumulation Zones – Where price rises on expanding volume.
• Distribution Zones – Where price declines on rising volume.
• Automatically visualized as glowing boxes, layered through time to simulate footprint persistence.
Fractal Structure Mapping
Reveals the recursive nature of price formation. HMS detects fractal highs/lows, then connects them into an evolving structure.
• Defines nested market structure across multiple scales.
• Maps trend progression and transition points.
• Renders with adaptive glow lines to reflect depth and strength.
Volume Heat Map
Transforms historical volume data into a 3D holographic heat projection.
• Each band represents a volume-weighted price level.
• Gradient brightness = relative participation intensity.
• Helps identify volume nodes, voids, and liquidity corridors.
HUD Display System
Real-time analytical dashboard summarizing the system’s internal metrics directly on the chart.
• Flow, Structure, Smart$, Liquidity, and Divergence — all live.
• Designed for both scalpers and swing traders to assess micro-context instantly.
---
🧠 Smart Money Intelligence Layer
The Smart Money Index dynamically evaluates the harmony (or conflict) between price momentum and volume acceleration. When institutions accumulate or distribute discreetly, volume surges ahead of price. HMS detects this divergence and overlays it as glowing smart money zones.
◈ ACCUM → Institutional absorption, early uptrend formation.
◈ DISTRIB → Distribution and top-heavy conditions.
○ IDLE → Neutral flow equilibrium.
Divergences between price and volume are signaled using holographic alerts ( ⚠ ALERT ) to highlight exhaustion or trap conditions — often precursors to structural reversals.
---
🌀 Fractal Market Structure Engine
The fractal subsystem recursively identifies local pivot symmetry, connecting micro-structural highs and lows into a holographic skeleton.
• Bullish Structure — Higher highs & higher lows align (▲ BULLISH).
• Bearish Structure — Lower highs & lower lows dominate (▼ BEARISH).
• Ranging — Fractal symmetry balance (◆ RANGING).
Each transition is visually represented through adaptive glow intensity, producing a living contour of market evolution .
---
🔥 Volume Heat Map Projection
The heatmap acts as a volumetric X-ray of the recent 100–300 bars. Each horizontal segment reflects liquidity density, rendered with gradient opacity from cold (inactive) to hot (highly active).
• Detects hidden accumulation shelves and distribution ridges.
• Identifies imbalanced liquidity corridors (voids).
• Reveals the invisible scaffolding of the order book.
When combined with smart money zones and structure lines, it creates a multi-layered holographic perspective — allowing traders to see liquidity clusters and their interaction with evolving structure in real time.
---
💎 Holographic Visual Engine
Every element of HMS is dynamically color-mapped to its visual theme . Each theme carries a distinct personality:
Aeon — Neon blue plasma aesthetic; futuristic and fluid.
Cyber — High-contrast digital energy; circuit-like clarity.
Quantum — Deep space gradients; reflective of non-linear flow.

FDF – Step 4 (Touch-21 + Trend/VWAP + Channel + Prev75% toggle)FDF — EMAs + VWAP Retest Entry System (A++ Signal Mode Compatible)
This indicator is designed for traders who follow a structured pullback and continuation entry method using the 9 EMA, 21 EMA, and VWAP as trend and momentum guides.
The system highlights high-probability retest entries when price pulls back into the EMA channel and shows strength in the direction of trend. It also includes optional A++ wick filters for traders who want to refine entries only to the strongest momentum candles.
Core Logic
A trade setup is identified when:
Trend is defined by the EMA alignment
• Long bias when EMA9 > EMA21
• Short bias when EMA9 < EMA21
Price retests the 21 EMA
• The candle must touch or cross the 21 EMA
• Designed to time pullbacks, not breakouts
Entry Confirmation
• Candle closes back in channel or breaks away in the trend direction
• Optional requirement: price must be on the correct side of VWAP for intraday trend alignment
A++ Wick Filter Mode (Optional)
Enable this mode to restrict entries to only high-dominance candles:
Dominant wick must exceed the opposing wick by a chosen percentage
Opposing wick can optionally be limited to a % of body size
Helps avoid weak, indecisive, or absorption candles
This mode is optional — turn it off to allow standard FDF entries.
Signals
When conditions are met, the script plots:
Green Triangle → Long entry signal
Red Triangle → Short entry signal
(Entries are plotted only after candle close to avoid repainting.)
Best Use
• Works on 5m / 15m / 1H intraday trend structures
• Pairs well with market structure + liquidity zones
• Designed for disciplined traders who wait for trend alignment and controlled pullbacks

Bilateral Filter (BILATERAL)The Bilateral Filter is an edge-preserving smoothing technique that combines spatial filtering with intensity filtering to achieve noise reduction while maintaining significant price structure. Originally developed in computer vision for image processing, this adaptive filter has been adapted for financial time series analysis to provide superior smoothing that preserves important market transitions. The filter intelligently reduces noise in stable price regions while preserving sharp transitions like breakouts, reversals, and other significant market structures that would be blurred by conventional filters.
## Core Concepts
* **Dual-domain filtering:** Combines traditional time-based (spatial) filtering with value-based (range) filtering for adaptive smoothing
* **Edge preservation:** Maintains important price transitions while aggressively smoothing areas of minor fluctuation
* **Adaptive processing:** Automatically adjusts filtering strength based on local price characteristics
The core innovation of the Bilateral Filter is its ability to distinguish between random noise and significant price movements. Unlike conventional filters that smooth everything equally, Bilateral filtering preserves major price transitions by reducing the influence of price points that differ significantly from the current price, effectively preserving market structure while still eliminating noise.
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
|-----------|---------|----------|---------------|
| Length | 14 | Controls the lookback window size | Increase for more context in filtering decisions, decrease for quicker response |
| Sigma_S_Ratio | 0.3 | Controls spatial (time) weighting | Lower values emphasize recent bars, higher values distribute influence more evenly |
| Sigma_R_Mult | 2.0 | Controls range (price) sensitivity | Lower values increase edge preservation, higher values increase smoothing |
| Source | close | Price data used for calculation | Consider using hlc3 for a more balanced price representation |
**Pro Tip:** For breakout trading strategies, try reducing Sigma_R_Mult to 1.0-1.5 to make the filter more sensitive to significant price moves, allowing it to preserve breakout signals while still filtering noise.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
The Bilateral Filter calculates a weighted average of nearby prices, where the weights depend on two factors: how far away in time the price point is (spatial weight) and how different the price value is (range weight). Points that are close in time AND similar in value get the highest weight. This means stable price regions get smoothed while significant changes are preserved.
**Technical formula:**
BF = (1 / Wp) × Σ_{q ∈ S} G_s(||p - q||) × G_r(|I - I |) × I
Where:
- G_s is the spatial Gaussian kernel: exp(-||p - q||² / (2 × σ_s²))
- G_r is the range Gaussian kernel: exp(-|I - I |² / (2 × σ_r²))
- Wp is the normalization factor (sum of all weights)
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The sigma_r parameter is typically calculated dynamically based on local price volatility (standard deviation) to provide adaptive filtering - this automatically adjusts filtering strength based on market conditions.
## Interpretation Details
The Bilateral Filter can be applied in various trading contexts:
* **Trend identification:** Reveals cleaner underlying price direction by removing noise while preserving trend changes
* **Support/resistance identification:** Provides clearer price levels by preserving significant turning points
* **Pattern recognition:** Maintains critical chart patterns while eliminating distracting minor fluctuations
* **Breakout trading:** Preserves sharp price transitions for more reliable breakout signals
* **Pre-processing:** Can be used as an initial filter before applying other technical indicators to reduce false signals
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Computational complexity:** More intensive calculations than traditional linear filters
* **Parameter sensitivity:** Performance highly dependent on proper parameter selection
* **Non-linearity:** Non-linear behavior may produce unexpected results in certain market conditions
* **Interpretation adjustment:** Requires different interpretation than conventional moving averages
* **Complementary tools:** Best used alongside volume analysis and traditional indicators for confirmation

Trend Score HTF (Raw Data) Pine Screener📘 Trend Score HTF (Raw Data) Pine Screener — Indicator Guide
This indicator tracks price action using a custom cumulative Trend Score (TS) system. It helps you visualize trend momentum, detect early reversals, confirm direction changes, and screen for entries across large watchlists like SPX500 using TradingView’s Pine Script Screener (beta).
⸻
🔧 What This Indicator Does
• Assigns a +1 or -1 score when price breaks the previous high or low
• Accumulates these scores into a real-time tsScore
• Detects early warnings (primed flips) and trend changes (confirmed flips)
• Supports alerts and labels for visual and automated trading
• Designed to work inside the Pine Screener so you can filter hundreds of tickers live
⸻
⚙️ Recommended Settings (for Beginners)
When adding the indicator to your chart:
Go to the “Inputs” tab at the top of the settings panel.
Then:
• Uncheck “Confirm flips on bar close”
• Check “Accumulate TS Across Flips? (ON = non-reset, OFF = reset)”
This setup allows you to see trend changes immediately without waiting for bar closes and lets the trend score build continuously over time, making it easier to follow long trends.
⸻
🧠 Core Logic
Start Date
Select a meaningful historical start date — for example: 2020-01-01. This provides long-term context for trend score calculation.
Per-Bar Delta (Δ) Calculation
The indicator scores each bar based on breakout behavior:
If the bar breaks only the previous high, Δ = +1
If it breaks only the previous low, Δ = -1
If it breaks both the high and low, Δ = 0
If it breaks neither, Δ = 0
This filters out wide-range or indecisive candles during volatility.
Cumulative Trend Score
Each bar’s delta is added to the running tsScore.
When it rises, bullish pressure is building.
When it falls, bearish pressure is increasing.
Trend Flip Logic
A bullish flip happens when tsScore rises by +3 from the lowest recent point.
A bearish flip happens when tsScore falls by -3 from the highest recent point.
These flips update the active trend direction between bullish and bearish.
⸻
⚠️ What Is a “Primed” Flip?
A primed flip is a signal that the current trend is about to flip — just one point away.
A primed bullish flip means the trend is currently bearish, but the tsScore only needs +1 more to flip. If the next bar breaks the previous high (without breaking the low), it will trigger a bullish flip.
A primed bearish flip means the trend is currently bullish, but the tsScore only needs -1 more to flip. If the next bar breaks the previous low (without breaking the high), it will trigger a bearish flip.
Primed flips are plotted one bar ahead of the current bar. They act like forecasts and give you a head start.
⸻
✅ What Is a “Confirmed” Flip?
A confirmed flip is the first bar of a new trend direction.
A confirmed bullish flip appears when a bearish trend officially flips into a new bullish trend.
A confirmed bearish flip appears when a bullish trend officially flips into a new bearish trend.
These signals are reliable and great for entries, trend filters, or reversals.
⸻
🖼 Visual Cues
The trend score (tsScore) line shows the accumulated trend strength.
A Δ histogram shows the daily price contribution: +1 for breaking highs, -1 for breaking lows, 0 otherwise.
A green background means the chart is in a bullish trend.
A red background means the chart is in a bearish trend.
A ⬆ label signals a primed bullish flip is possible on the next bar.
A ⬇ label signals a primed bearish flip is possible on the next bar.
A ✅ means a bullish flip just confirmed.
A ❌ means a bearish flip just confirmed.
⸻
🔔 Alerts You Can Use
The indicator includes these built-in alerts:
• Primed Bullish Flip — watch for possible bullish reversal tomorrow
• Primed Bearish Flip — watch for possible bearish reversal tomorrow
• Bullish Confirmed — official entry into new uptrend
• Bearish Confirmed — official entry into new downtrend
You can set these alerts in TradingView to monitor across your chart or watchlist.
⸻
📈 How to Use in TradingView Pine Screener
Step 1: Create your own watchlist — for example, SPX500
Step 2: Favorite this indicator so it shows up in the screener
Step 3: Go to TradingView → Products → Screeners → Pine (Beta)

PLTR: complicated case primed for bullish (but we don't when it will flip)
⚠️ Risk Disclaimer & Trend Context
A confirmed bullish signal does not guarantee an immediate price increase. Price may continue to consolidate or even pull back after a bullish flip.
Likewise, a primed bullish signal does not always lead to confirmation. It simply means the conditions are close — but if the next bar breaks both the high and low, or breaks only the low, the flip will be canceled.
On the other side, a confirmed bearish signal does not mean the market will crash. If the overall trend is bullish (for example, tsScore has been rising for weeks), then a bearish flip may just represent a short-term pullback — not a trend reversal.
You always need to consider the overall market structure. If the long-term trend is bullish, it’s usually smarter to wait for bullish confirmation signals. Bearish flips in that context are often just dips — not opportunities to short.
This indicator gives you context, not predictions. It’s a tool for alignment — not absolute outcomes. Use it to follow structure, not fight it.
Gann Box LogicGann Box Logic
Overview
The Gann Box Logic indicator is a precision-based trading tool that combines the principles of Gann analysis with retracement logic to highlight high-probability zones of price action. It plots a structured box on the chart based on the previous day's high and low, overlays Fibonacci-derived retracement levels, and visually marks a critical “neutral zone” between 38.2% and 61.8% retracements.
This zone — shaded for emphasis — is a decision filter for traders:
- It warns against initiating trades in this area (low conviction zone).
- It identifies reversal pull targets when extremes are reached.
Core Principles Behind Gann Box Logic
Logic 1 — The Neutral Zone (38.2% ↔ 61.8%)
- The 38.2% and 61.8% retracement levels are key Fibonacci ratios often associated with consolidation or indecision.
- Price action between these two levels is considered a neutral, low-conviction zone.
- Trading Recommendation:
- Avoid initiating new trades while price remains within this shaded band.
- This zone tends to produce whipsaws and false signals.
- Wait for a decisive break above 61.8% or below 38.2% for clearer momentum.
- Why it matters:
- In Gann’s market structure thinking, the middle range of a swing is often a battleground where neither bulls nor bears are in full control.
- This is the zone where market makers often shake out weak hands before committing to a direction.
Logic 2 — Extremes Seek Balance (0% & 100% Reversal Bias)
- The indicator’s 0% and 100% levels represent the previous day’s low and high respectively.
- First Touch Rule:
- When the price touches 0% (previous low) or 100% (previous high) for the first time in the current session, there is a high probability it will attempt to revert toward the center zone (38.2% ↔ 61.8%).
- Trading Implication:
- If price spikes to an extreme, be alert for reversion trades toward the mid-zone rather than expecting a sustained breakout.
- Momentum traders may still pursue breakout trades, but this bias warns of potential pullbacks.
- Why it works:
- Extreme levels often trigger profit-taking by early entrants and counter-trend entries by mean-reversion traders.
- These forces naturally pull the market back toward equilibrium — often near the 50% level or within the shaded zone.
How the Indicator is Plotted
1. Previous Day High/Low Reference — The script locks onto the prior day’s range to establish the vertical bounds of the box.
2. Retracement Levels — Key Fibonacci levels plotted: 0%, 25%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 75%, 100%.
3. Box Structure — Outer Border marks the full prior day range, Mid Fill Zone is shaded between 38.2% and 61.8%.
4. VWAP (Optional) — Daily VWAP overlay for intraday bias confirmation.
Practical Usage Guide
- Avoid Trades in Neutral Zone — Stay out of the shaded area unless you’re already in a trade from outside this zone.
- Watch for First Touch Extremes — First touch at 0% or 100% → anticipate a pullback toward the shaded zone.
- Breakout Confirmation — Only commit to breakout trades when price leaves the 38.2–61.8% zone with strong volume and momentum.
- VWAP Confluence — VWAP crossing through the shaded zone often signals a balance day — breakout expectations should be tempered.
Strengths of Gann Box Logic
- Removes noise trades during low-conviction periods.
- Encourages patience and discipline.
- Highlights key market turning points.
- Provides clear visual structure for both new and advanced traders.
Limitations & Warnings
- Not a standalone entry system — best used in conjunction with price action and volume analysis.
- Extreme moves can sometimes trend without reversion, especially during news-driven sessions.
- Works best on intraday timeframes when referencing the previous day’s range.
In Summary
The Gann Box Logic indicator’s philosophy can be boiled down to two golden rules:
1. Do nothing in the middle — Avoid trades between 38.2% and 61.8%.
2. Expect balance from extremes — First touches at 0% or 100% often pull back toward the shaded mid-zone.
This dual approach makes the indicator both a trade filter and a targeting guide, allowing traders to navigate markets with a structured, Gann-inspired framework.

X mirrorX σ Mirror — Volatility Projection & Price Action Guide
The X σ Mirror is a volatility-mapping tool that measures the prior period’s trading range, then mirrors and projects that range onto the current period. Anchored from the current period’s opening price, the indicator divides this projected range into quartiles, creating a structured price map that adapts to the asset’s recent volatility profile.
Core Methodology
Range Measurement – At the close of each user-selected higher timeframe (daily, 4-hour, weekly, etc.), the indicator captures the prior period’s high, low, and midpoint (equilibrium). This defines the “volatility envelope” for the next period.
Projection from the Open – The full prior range is projected above and below the current period’s open. This symmetrical mirroring anchors the volatility measurement to a logical starting point for intraperiod price movement.
Quartile Breakdown – The projected range is segmented into precise increments: 0.25×, 0.50×, 0.75×, 1.0×, 1.25×, 1.5×, and 2.0× of the prior range. These serve as price “checkpoints” that reflect proportional expansions or contractions relative to historical volatility.
How It Guides Price Action
Dynamic Support & Resistance – Quartile levels often act as temporary barriers or accelerators for price movement, highlighting areas where order flow may cluster.
Momentum Tracking – Price acceptance above successive quartiles suggests sustained directional strength, while repeated failures to breach a quartile indicate exhaustion.
Risk Management – The mirrored range and quartile levels help traders size positions, define stop placements, and set profit targets with volatility-adjusted precision.
Market Context – By anchoring the projection from the open, the indicator aligns volatility expectations with the session’s actual market structure, rather than static fixed levels.
Application
The X σ Mirror is adaptable across assets and timeframes, making it suitable for intraday traders tracking the unfolding session, as well as swing traders monitoring multi-day expansion potential. By combining historical range analysis with real-time market positioning, it provides a balanced framework for anticipating price behavior within a probabilistic structure.
[eLm] 0-1-2# 📈 Market Structure Indicator – Counter System
This indicator dynamically analyzes price action to detect key market structure shifts and trend strength using four essential formations:
## 🔍 Detected Structures
- **Higher High (HH):** A candle forming a new high above recent peaks
- **Lower Low (LL):** A candle forming a new low below recent bottoms
- **Higher Low (HL):** A higher dip, indicating potential trend continuation
- **Lower High (LH):** A lower peak, signaling potential weakness
## 🧠 Structure Protection Logic
After a HH or LL is formed, if price does not breach that level within a user-defined number of candles, the level is considered **"protected."**
This provides insight into trend strength and market reaction.
## 🔢 HL / LH Counter System
- Each HL or LH increases a counter.
- A new HH or LL **resets** the corresponding counter to zero.
> This helps visualize how many consecutive HL or LH structures have occurred — useful for measuring trend momentum.
## 🎯 Use Cases
- Trend following and confirmation
- Early trend reversal detection
- Building structure-based trading strategies
- Understanding price behavior and market intent

🔬 How It Works
1. Structure Identification Process :
The indicator continuously scans price action to identify significant swing points and structure levels within the specified range, establishing a foundation for order block recognition.
2. Break Detection :
When price breaks an established structure level (crossing below a significant low for bearish breaks or above a significant high for bullish breaks), the indicator marks this as a potential zone for order block formation.
3. Volume Qualification :
For each potential order block, the algorithm calculates the relative volume compared to the configured period average. Only blocks formed with volume exceeding the minimum ratio threshold are displayed.
4. Block Creation and Management :
Valid order blocks are created, tracked, and managed as price continues to develop. Blocks extend to the right of the chart until they are either mitigated by price action or expire after the designated timeframe.
5. Continuous Monitoring :
The indicator constantly evaluates price interaction with existing blocks, determining when blocks have been tested, mitigated, or invalidated, and updates the visual representation accordingly.
💡 Note:
Order Blocks represent areas where institutional traders have likely established positions and may defend these zones during future price visits. For optimal results, use this indicator in conjunction with other confluent factors such as key support/resistance levels, trendlines, or additional confirmation indicators. The most reliable signals typically occur on higher timeframes where institutional activity is most prominent. Start with the default settings and adjust parameters gradually to match your specific trading instrument and style.

SemiCircle Cycle Notation PivotsFor decades, traders have sought to decode the rhythm of the markets through cycle theory. From the groundbreaking work of HM Gartley in the 1930s to modern-day cycle trading tools on TradingView, the concept remains the same: markets move in repeating waves with larger cycles influencing smaller ones in a fractal-like structure, and understanding their timing gives traders an edge to better anticipate future price movements🔮.
Traditional cycle analysis has always been manual, requiring traders to painstakingly plot semicircles, diamonds, or sine waves to estimate pivot points and time reversals. Drawing tools like semicircle & sine wave projections exist on TradingView, but they lack automation—forcing traders to adjust cycle lengths by eye, often leading to inconsistencies.
This is where SemiCircle Cycle Notation Pivots indicator comes in. Semicircle cycle chart notation appears to have evolved as a practical visualization tool among cycle theorists rather than being pioneered by a single individual; some key influences include HM Gartley, WD Gann, JM Hurst, Walter Bressert, and RayTomes. Built upon LonesomeTheBlue's foundational ZigZag Waves indicator , this indicator takes cycle visualization to the next level by dynamically detecting price pivots and then automatically plotting semicircles based on real-time cycle length calculations & expected rhythm of price action over time.
Key Features:
Automated Cycle Detection: The indicator identifies pivot points based on your preference—highs, lows, or both—and plots semicircle waves that correspond to Hurst's cycle notation.
Customizable Cycle Lengths: Tailor the analysis to your trading strategy with adjustable cycle lengths, defaulting to 10, 20, and 40 bars, allowing for flexibility across various timeframes and assets.
Dynamic Wave Scaling: The semicircle waves adapt to different price structures, ensuring that the visualization remains proportional to the detected cycle lengths and aiding in the identification of potential reversal points.
Automated Cycle Detection: Dynamically identifies price pivot points and automatically adjusts offsets based on real-time cycle length calculations, ensuring precise semicircle wave alignment with market structure.
Color-Coded Cycle Tiers: Each cycle tier is distinctly color-coded, enabling quick differentiation and a clearer understanding of nested market cycles.

i_lineLength = input.int(15, "Line Length", minval=5)
i_labelSpacing = input.int(5, "Minimum Label Spacing (bars)", minval=1, maxval=20)
❓How It Works
🔶 Event Identification
The script scans for key Wyckoff events by analyzing volume spikes, price deviations, and trend shifts within a user-defined lookback period. It categorizes events into bullish (accumulation) or bearish (distribution) structures and plots them directly on the chart.
// === EVENT DETECTION ===
volMA = ta.sma(volume, i_volLen)
highestHigh = ta.highest(high, i_priceLookback)
lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, i_priceLookback)
🔶 Automatic Filtering & Cleanup
Unconfirmed or weak signals are filtered out using customizable strength multipliers and volume thresholds. Events that do not meet the minimum conditions are discarded to keep the chart clean and informative.
🔶 Phase Strength Analysis
The script continuously tracks bullish and bearish event counts to determine whether the market is currently in an accumulation, distribution, or neutral phase. This allows traders to align their strategies accordingly.
🔶 Visual Alerts & Labels
Detects and labels key Wyckoff events directly on the chart, providing immediate insights into market conditions:
- PSY (Preliminary Supply) and UT (Upthrust) for distribution phases.
- PS (Preliminary Support) and SC (Selling Climax) for accumulation phases.
- Labels adjust dynamically to avoid chart clutter and improve readability.
🔶 Entry & Exit Optimization
By highlighting supply and demand imbalances, the script assists traders in identifying optimal entry and exit points. Wyckoff concepts such as springs and upthrusts provide clear trade signals based on market structure.
🔶 Trend Confirmation & Risk Management
Observing how price reacts to detected events helps confirm trend direction and potential reversals. Traders can place stop-loss and take-profit levels based on Wyckoff phase analysis, ensuring strategic trade execution.
🔶 Table-Based Market Analysis (Table)
A built-in table summarizes:
- Market Phase: Accumulation, Distribution, or Neutral.
- Strength of Phase: Weak, Moderate, or Strong.
- Price Positioning: Whether price is near support, resistance, or in a trading range.
- Supply/Demand State: Identifies whether the market is supply or demand dominant.
🔶 Why Choose Wyckoff Market Phases - Alpha Extract?
This indicator offers a systematic approach to understanding market mechanics through the lens of Wyckoff's time-tested principles. By providing clear and actionable insights into market phases, it empowers traders to make informed decisions, enhancing both confidence and performance in various trading environments.
Trending Market Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The Trending Market Toolkit focuses exclusively on trending market structures and high-confluence, high-risk-to-reward entry models. It is designed to complement discretionary trading by offering different entry strategies based on market structure.
🔶 USAGE
In the chart above we can see how the tool detects several reversals, draws the broken trendlines, the reversal areas from which the tool starts looking for a trigger, and when it finally happens, a potential trade with risk and reward areas and the risk/reward ratio.
🔹 Detection Mode
Traders can choose between three different modes: trend only, reversal only, or both.
If both are active, reversals have priority over trends, so the tool will not detect a trend if a reversal is active.
In the chart above we can see all three modes.
🔹 Detection on Higher Timeframes
Traders can choose to identify structures on the chart timeframe or on a higher timeframe.
In the chart above, we have the SP500 futures on the 5m timeframe with different settings: chart timeframe, 30m, and 1H.
🔹 Risk And Targets
Depending on whether the high-risk/reward parameter is enabled, traders can choose between three different targets and two different stops.
The chart above shows how different choices affect the risk/reward ratio for the same potential trade on the Gold Futures 2m chart.
🔶 SETTINGS
Show: Traders can choose between Trends, Reversals or Both.
🔹 Structures
Swing Length: Number of candles to confirm a swing high or swing low. A higher number detects larger swings.
Custom Timeframe: Traders can make use of the current chart timeframe, or choose a custom timeframe.
Reversal Area Threshold: A higher number increases the reversal area.
🔹 Trades
Trade Trigger Length: Number of candles to confirm an internal high or internal low. A lower number detects smaller swings. It must be the same size or smaller than the swing length.
Target: Traders can choose between the default target (0) or two extended targets (0.27 or 0.618).
Risk to Reward Threshold: Set the minimum risk-to-reward ratio to detect trades. Use the 0 value to detect all trades.
High Risk to Reward: Enable/Disable the high risk to reward mode.
Poisson Projection of Price Levels### **Poisson Projection of Price Levels**
**Overview:**
The *Poisson Projection of Price Levels* is a cutting-edge technical indicator designed to identify and visualize potential support and resistance levels based on historical price interactions. By leveraging the Poisson distribution, this tool dynamically adjusts the significance of each price level's past "touches" to project future interactions with varying degrees of probability. This probabilistic approach offers traders a nuanced view of where price levels may hold or react in upcoming bars, enhancing both analysis and trading strategies.
---
**🔍 **Math & Methodology**
1. **Strata Levels:**
- **Definition:** Strata are horizontal lines spaced evenly around the current closing price.
- **Calculation:**
\
where \(i\) ranges from 0 to \(\text{Strata Count} - 1\).
2. **Forecast Iterations:**
- **Structure:** The indicator projects five forecast iterations into the future, each spaced by a Fibonacci sequence of bars: 2, 3, 5, 8, and 13 bars ahead. This spacing is inspired by the Fibonacci sequence, which is prevalent in financial market analysis for identifying key levels.
- **Purpose:** Each iteration represents a distinct forecast point where the price may interact with the strata, allowing for a multi-step projection of potential price levels.
3. **Touch Counting:**
- **Definition:** A "touch" occurs when the closing price of a bar is within half the increment of a stratum level.
- **Process:** For each stratum and each forecast iteration, the indicator counts the number of touches within a specified lookback window (e.g., 80 bars), offset by the forecasted position. This ensures that each iteration's touch count is independent and contextually relevant to its forecast horizon.
- **Adjustment:** Each forecast iteration analyzes a unique segment of the lookback window, offset by its forecasted position to ensure independent probability calculations.
4. **Poisson Probability Calculation:**
- **Formula:**
\
\
- **Interpretation:** \(p(k=1)\) represents the probability of exactly one touch occurring within the lookback window for each stratum and iteration.
- **Application:** This probability is used to determine the transparency of each stratum line, where higher probabilities result in more opaque (less transparent) lines, indicating stronger historical significance.
5. **Transparency Mapping:**
- **Calculation:**
\
- **Purpose:** Maps the Poisson probability to a visual transparency level, enhancing the readability of significant strata levels.
- **Outcome:** Strata with higher probabilities (more historical touches) appear more opaque, while those with lower probabilities appear fainter.
---
**📊 **Comparability to Standard Techniques**
1. **Support and Resistance Levels:**
- **Traditional Approach:** Traders identify support and resistance based on historical price reversals, pivot points, or psychological price levels.
- **Poisson Projection:** Automates and quantifies this process by statistically analyzing the frequency of price interactions with specific levels, providing a probabilistic measure of significance.
2. **Statistical Modeling:**
- **Standard Models:** Techniques like Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands, or Fibonacci Retracements offer dynamic and rule-based levels but lack direct probabilistic interpretation.
- **Poisson Projection:** Introduces a discrete event probability framework, offering a unique blend of statistical rigor and visual clarity that complements traditional indicators.
3. **Event-Based Analysis:**
- **Financial Industry Practices:** Event studies and high-frequency trading models often use Poisson processes to model order arrivals or price jumps.
- **Indicator Application:** While not identical, the use of Poisson probabilities in this indicator draws inspiration from event-based modeling, applying it to the context of price level interactions.
---
**💡 **Strengths & Advantages**
1. **Innovative Visualization:**
- Combines statistical probability with traditional support/resistance visualization, offering a fresh perspective on price level significance.
2. **Dynamic Adaptability:**
- Parameters like strata increment, lookback window, and probability threshold are user-defined, allowing customization across different markets and timeframes.
3. **Independent Probability Calculations:**
- Each forecast iteration calculates its own Poisson probability, ensuring that projections are contextually relevant and independent of other iterations.
4. **Clear Visual Cues:**
- Transparency-based coloring intuitively highlights significant price levels, making it easier for traders to identify key areas of interest at a glance.
---
**⚠️ **Limitations & Considerations**
1. **Poisson Assumptions:**
- Assumes that touches occur independently and at a constant average rate (\(\lambda\)), which may not always align with market realities characterized by trends and volatility clustering.
2. **Computational Intensity:**
- Managing multiple iterations and strata can be resource-intensive, potentially affecting performance on lower-powered devices or with very high lookback windows.
3. **Interpretation Complexity:**
- While transparency offers visual clarity, understanding the underlying probability calculations requires a basic grasp of Poisson statistics, which may be a barrier for some traders.
---
**📢 **How to Use It**
1. **Add to TradingView:**
- Open TradingView and navigate to the Pine Script Editor.
- Paste the script above and click **Add to Chart**.
2. **Configure Inputs:**
- **Strata Increment:** Set the desired price step between strata (e.g., `0.1` for 10 cents).
- **Lookback Window:** Define how many past bars to consider for calculating Poisson probabilities (e.g., `80`).
- **Probability Transparency Threshold (%):** Set the threshold percentage to map probabilities to line transparency (e.g., `25%`).
3. **Understand the Forecast Iterations:**
- The indicator projects five forecast points into the future at bar spacings of 2, 3, 5, 8, and 13 bars ahead.
- Each iteration independently calculates its Poisson probability based on the touch counts within its specific lookback window offset by its forecasted position.
4. **Interpret the Visualization:**
- **Opaque Lines:** Indicate higher Poisson probabilities, suggesting historically significant price levels that are more likely to interact again.
- **Fainter Lines:** Represent lower probabilities, indicating less historically significant levels that may be less likely to interact.
- **Forecast Spacing:** The spacing of 2, 3, 5, 8, and 13 bars ahead aligns with Fibonacci principles, offering a natural progression in forecast horizons.
5. **Apply to Trading Strategies:**
- **Support/Resistance Identification:** Use the opaque lines as potential support and resistance levels for placing trades.
- **Entry and Exit Points:** Anticipate price interactions at forecasted levels to plan strategic entries and exits.
- **Risk Management:** Utilize the transparency mapping to determine where to place stop-loss and take-profit orders based on the probability of price interactions.
6. **Customize as Needed:**
- Adjust the **Strata Increment** to fit different price ranges or volatility levels.
- Modify the **Lookback Window** to capture more or fewer historical touches, adapting to different timeframes or market conditions.
- Tweak the **Probability Transparency Threshold** to control the sensitivity of transparency mapping to Poisson probabilities.
**📈 **Practical Applications**
1. **Identifying Key Levels:**
- Quickly visualize which price levels have historically had significant interactions, aiding in the identification of potential support and resistance zones.
2. **Forecasting Price Reactions:**
- Use the forecast iterations to anticipate where price may interact in the near future, assisting in planning entry and exit points.
3. **Risk Management:**
- Determine areas of high probability for price reversals or consolidations, enabling better placement of stop-loss and take-profit orders.
4. **Market Analysis:**
- Assess the strength of market levels over different forecast horizons, providing a multi-layered understanding of market structure.
---

XAMD/AMDX ICT 01 [TradingFinder] SMC Quarterly Theory Cycles🔵 Introduction
The XAMD/AMDX strategy, combined with the Quarterly Theory, forms the foundation of a powerful market structure analysis. This indicator builds upon the principles of the Power of 3 strategy introduced by ICT, enhancing its application by incorporating an additional phase.
By extending the logic of Power of 3, the XAMD/AMDX tool provides a more detailed and comprehensive view of daily market behavior, offering traders greater precision in identifying key movements and opportunities
This approach divides the trading day into four distinct phases : Accumulation (19:00 - 01:00 EST), Manipulation (01:00 - 07:00 EST), Distribution (07:00 - 13:00 EST), and Continuation or Reversal (13:00 - 19:00 EST), collectively known as AMDX.
Each phase reflects a specific market behavior, providing a structured lens to interpret price action. Building on the fractal nature of time in financial markets, the Quarterly Theory introduces the Four Quarters Method, where a currency pair’s price range is divided into quarters.
These divisions, known as quarter points, highlight critical levels for analyzing and predicting market dynamics. Together, these principles allow traders to align their strategies with institutional trading patterns, offering deeper insights into market trends
🔵 How to Use
The AMDX framework provides a structured approach to understanding market behavior throughout the trading day. Each phase has its own characteristics and trading opportunities, allowing traders to align their strategies effectively. To get the most out of this tool, understanding the dynamics of each phase is essential.
🟣 Accumulation
During the Accumulation phase (19:00 - 01:00 EST), the market is typically quiet, with price movements confined to a narrow range. This phase is where institutional players accumulate their positions, setting the stage for future price movements.
Traders should use this time to study price patterns and prepare for the next phases. It’s a great opportunity to mark key support and resistance zones and set alerts for potential breakouts, as the low volatility makes immediate trading less attractive.
🟣 Manipulation
The Manipulation phase (01:00 - 07:00 EST) is often marked by sharp and deceptive price movements. Institutions create false breakouts to trigger stop-losses and trap retail traders into the wrong direction. Traders should remain cautious during this phase, focusing on identifying the areas of liquidity where these traps occur.
Watching for price reversals after these false moves can provide excellent entry opportunities, but patience and confirmation are crucial to avoid getting caught in the manipulation.
🟣 Distribution
The Distribution phase (07:00 - 13:00 EST) is where the day’s dominant trend typically emerges. Institutions execute large trades, resulting in significant price movements. This phase is ideal for trading with the trend, as the market provides clearer directional signals.
Traders should focus on identifying breakouts or strong momentum in the direction of the trend established during this period. This phase is also where traders can capitalize on setups identified earlier, aligning their entries with the market’s broader sentiment.
🟣 Continuation or Reversal
Finally, the Continuation or Reversal phase (13:00 - 19:00 EST) offers a critical juncture to assess the market’s direction. This phase can either reinforce the established trend or signal a reversal as institutions adjust their positions.
Traders should observe price behavior closely during this time, looking for patterns that confirm whether the trend is likely to continue or reverse. This phase is particularly useful for adjusting open positions or initiating new trades based on emerging signals.
🔵 Settings
Show or Hide Phases.
Adjust the session times for each phase :
Accumulation: 19:00-01:00 EST

Modify Visualization : Customize how the indicator looks by changing settings like colors and transparency.
🔵 Conclusion
AMDX provides traders with a practical method to analyze daily market behavior by dividing the trading day into four key phases: Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation or Reversal. Each phase highlights specific market dynamics, offering insights into how institutional activity shapes price movements.
From the quiet buildup in the Accumulation phase to the decisive trends of the Distribution phase, and the critical transitions in Continuation or Reversal, this approach equips traders with the tools to anticipate movements and make informed decisions.
By recognizing the significance of each phase, traders can avoid common traps during Manipulation, capitalize on clear trends during Distribution, and adapt to changes in the final phase of the day.
The structured visualization of market phases simplifies decision-making for traders of all levels. By incorporating these principles into your trading strategy, you can enhance your ability to align with market trends, optimize entry and exit points, and achieve more consistent results in your trading journey.
ka66: Swing/Pivot Point LinesThis indicator draws swing-highs and swing-lows, also called pivot highs and lows.
A swing high is a bar which has a higher-high than its surrounding bars (to the left and the right).
A swing low is a bar which has a lower-low than its surrounding bars (to the left and the right).
A common example of a pivot is Bill Williams' Fractal, which specifies that the centre bar must have a higher high than 2 bars to its left, and 2 bars to its right for a swing high, taking into account 5 bars at a time. Similarly, for a swing low, the centre bar must have a lower low than the 2 bars to its left and right.
This indicator allows configurable adjacent bars as input. Entering 2, means it essentially picks out a Williams Fractal. But you can select 1 (say for higher timeframes), using one 1 bar to the left and right of the centre bar.
The indicator will draw Swing/Pivot High/Low as circles at the same price level as the centre bar, till the next one shows up. Drawing is offset so it starts at the centre bar (the swing bar), showing exactly where the pivot bar is.
There are 2 main uses of pivot points, in various strategies:
Market Structure: to objectively define higher-highs/lows and lower-highs/lows in Trend Analysis.
More generally, to then determine if a trend might reverse, or continue as pivot levels are broken.
Messy pivot structures easily point out ranging markets.
There are a few of these, some closed source, which I don't like, since I think people should generally know what they are trading with, and I want to make sure I understand the logic exactly.
ICT Concepts [LuxAlgo]The ICT Concepts indicator regroups core concepts highlighted by trader and educator "The Inner Circle Trader" (ICT) into an all-in-one toolkit. Features include Market Structure (MSS & BOS), Order Blocks, Imbalances, Buyside/Sellside Liquidity, Displacements, ICT Killzones, and New Week/Day Opening Gaps.

🔶 USAGE
By default, the indicator displays each feature relevant to the most recent price variations in order to avoid clutter on the chart & to provide a very similar experience to how a user would contruct ICT Concepts by hand.
Users can use the historical mode in the settings to see historical market structure/imbalances. The ICT Concepts indicator has various use cases, below we outline many examples of how a trader could find usage of the features together.
In the above image we can see price took out Sellside liquidity, filled two bearish FVGs, a market structure shift, which then led to a clean retest of a bullish FVG as a clean setup to target the order block above.
Price then fills the OB which creates a breaker level as seen in yellow.
Broken OBs can be useful for a trader using the ICT Concepts indicator as it marks a level where orders have now been filled, indicating a solidified level that has proved itself as an area of liquidity. In the image above we can see a trade setup using a broken bearish OB as a potential entry level.
We can see the New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) above was an optimal level to target considering price may tend to fill / react off of these levels according to ICT.
In the next image above, we have another example of various use cases where the ICT Concepts indicator hypothetically allow traders to find key levels & find optimal entry points using market structure.
In the image above we can see a bearish Market Structure Shift (MSS) is confirmed, indicating a potential trade setup for targeting the Balanced Price Range imbalance (BPR) below with a stop loss above the buyside liquidity.
Although what we are demonstrating here is a hindsight example, it shows the potential usage this toolkit gives you for creating trading plans based on ICT Concepts.
Same chart but playing out the history further we can see directly after price came down to the Sellside liquidity & swept below it...
Then by enabling IFVGs in the settings, we can see the IFVG retests alongside the Sellside & Buyside liquidity acting in confluence.
Which allows us to see a great bullish structure in the market with various key levels for potential entries.
Here we can see a potential bullish setup as price has taken out a previous Sellside liquidity zone and is now retesting a NWOG + Volume Imbalance.
Users also have the option to display Fibonacci retracements based on market structure, order blocks, and imbalance areas, which can help place limit/stop orders more effectively as well as finding optimal points of interest beyond what the primary ICT Concepts features can generate for a trader.
In the above image we can see the Fibonacci extension was selected to be based on the NWOG giving us some upside levels above the buyside liquidity.
🔶 DETAILS
Each feature within the ICT Concepts indicator is described in the sub sections below.
🔹 Market Structure
Market structure labels are constructed from price breaking a prior swing point. This allows a user to determine the current market trend based on the price action.
There are two types of Market Structure labels included:
Market Structure Shift (MSS)
Break Of Structure (BOS)
A MSS occurs when price breaks a swing low in an uptrend or a swing high in a downtrend, highlighting a potential reversal. This is often labeled as "CHoCH", but ICT specifies it as MSS.
On the other hand, BOS labels occur when price breaks a swing high in an uptrend or a swing low in a downtrend. The occurrence of these particular swing points is caused by retracements (inducements) that highlights liquidity hunting in lower timeframes.
🔹 Order Blocks
More significant market participants (institutions) with the ability of placing large orders in the market will generally place a sequence of individual trades spread out in time. This is referred as executing what is called a "meta-order".
Order blocks highlight the area where potential meta-orders are executed. Bullish order blocks are located near local bottoms in an uptrend while bearish order blocks are located near local tops in a downtrend.
When price mitigates (breaks out) an order block, a breaker block is confirmed. We can eventually expect price to trade back to this breaker block offering a new trade opportunity.
🔹 Buyside & Sellside Liquidity
Buyside / Sellside liquidity levels highlight price levels where market participants might place limit/stop orders.
Buyside liquidity levels will regroup the stoploss orders of short traders as well as limit orders of long traders, while Sellside liquidity levels will regroup the stoploss orders of long traders as well as limit orders of short traders.
These levels can play different roles. More informed market participants might view these levels as source of liquidity, and once liquidity over a specific level is reduced it will be found in another area.
🔹 Imbalances
Imbalances highlight disparities between the bid/ask, these can also be defined as inefficiencies, which would suggest that not all available information is reflected by the price and would as such provide potential trading opportunities.
It is common for price to "rebalance" and seek to come back to a previous imbalance area.
ICT highlights multiple imbalance formations:
Fair Value Gaps: A three candle formation where the candle shadows adjacent to the central candle do not overlap, this highlights a gap area.
Implied Fair Value Gaps: Unlike the fair value gap the implied fair value gap has candle shadows adjacent to the central candle overlapping. The gap area is constructed from the average between the respective shadow and the nearest extremity of their candle body.
Balanced Price Range: Balanced price ranges occur when a fair value gap overlaps a previous fair value gap, with the overlapping area resulting in the imbalance area.
Volume Imbalance: Volume imbalances highlight gaps between the opening price and closing price with existing trading activity (the low/high overlap the previous high/low).
Opening Gap: Unlike volume imbalances opening gaps highlight areas with no trading activity. The low/high does not reach previous high/low, highlighting a "void" area.
🔹 Displacement
Displacements are scenarios where price forms successive candles of the same sentiment (bullish/bearish) with large bodies and short shadows.
These can more technically be identified by positive auto correlation (a close to open change is more likely to be followed by a change of the same sign) as well as volatility clustering (large changes are followed by large changes).
Displacements can be the cause for the formation of imbalances as well as market structure, these can be caused by the full execution of a meta order.
🔹 Kill Zones
Killzones represent different time intervals that aims at offering optimal trade entries. Killzones include:
- New York Killzone (7:9 ET)
- London Open Killzone (2:5 ET)
- London Close Killzone (10:12 ET)
- Asian Killzone (20:00 ET)
🔶 Conclusion & Supplementary Material
This script aims to emulate how a trader would draw each of the covered features on their chart in the most precise representation to how it's actually taught by ICT directly.
There are many parallels between ICT Concepts and Smart Money Concepts that we released in 2022 which has a more general & simpler usage:
ICT Concepts, however, is more specifically aligned toward the community's interpretation of how to analyze price 'based on ICT', rather than displaying features to have a more classic interpretation for a technical analyst.
Smart Money Concepts Probability (Expo)█ Overview
The Smart Money Concept Probability (Expo) is an indicator developed to track the actions of institutional investors, commonly known as "smart money." This tool calculates the likelihood of smart money being actively engaged in buying or selling within the market, referred to as the "smart money order flow."
The indicator measures the probability of three key events: Change of Character ( CHoCH ), Shift in Market Structure ( SMS ), and Break of Structure ( BMS ). These probabilities are displayed as percentages alongside their respective levels, providing a straightforward and immediate understanding of the likelihood of smart money order flow.
Finally, the backtested results are shown in a table, which gives traders an understanding of the historical performance of the current order flow direction.
█ Calculations
The algorithm individually computes the likelihood of the events ( CHoCH , SMS , and BMS ). A positive score is assigned for events where the price successfully breaks through the level with the highest probability, and a negative score when the price fails to do so. By doing so, the algorithm determines the probability of each event occurring and calculates the total profitability derived from all the events.
█ Example
In this case, we have an 85% probability that the price will break above the upper range and make a new Break Of Structure and only a 16.36% probability that the price will break below the lower range and make a Change Of Character.
█ Settings
The Structure Period sets the pivot period to use when calculating the market structure.
The Structure Response sets how responsive the market structure should be. A low value returns a more responsive structure. A high value returns a less responsive structure.
█ How to use
This indicator is a perfect tool for anyone that wants to understand the probability of a Change of Character ( CHoCH ), Shift in Market Structure ( SMS ), and Break of Structure ( BMS )
The insights provided by this tool help traders gain an understanding of the smart money order flow direction, which can be used to determine the market trend.
█ Any Alert function call
An alert is sent when the price breaks the upper or lower range, and you can select what should be included in the alert. You can enable the following options:
Ticker ID
