Session Liquidity [TakingProphets]Session Liquidity
Session Liquidity maps the intraday landscape that ICT/SMC traders care about: each session’s high/low prints, key opens (Midnight, True Day/6PM, 8:30), and prior period reference levels (Previous Week/Day and optional Mon/Tue/Wed). It auto-draws and extends clean horizontal levels, updates them live, and optionally preserves “mitigated” tags so you can review what price consumed. To keep charts readable, overlapping labels at the same price are merged into a single combined label (e.g., LON.H + PDH + PWH) with smart anti-overlap placement.
What it does (at a glance)
– Tracks Asia, London, NY AM, NY Lunch, and NY PM session highs/lows in your chosen timezone (default America/New_York).
– Draws key opens: Midnight Open, True Day Open (6 PM), and 8:30 Open.
– Plots Previous Week High/Low (PWH/PWL) and Previous Day High/Low (PDH/PDL) with optional Mon/Tue/Wed references.
– Live extension: lines extend to the current bar; when a level is traded through you can either remove it or keep a left-anchored “mitigated” label.
– Combined labels: when multiple levels share the same price, the script shows one label listing all tokens (e.g., LON.L + PWL).
– Timeframe governor: a Timeframe Limit hides drawings on higher resolutions to avoid clutter (e.g., show on ≤ 30 min only).
– Styling controls: per-feature colors, dotted/dashed/solid styles, and label size/position (session labels left/center/right logic handled via label types and offsets).
How it works:
– Sessions are defined with TradingView’s session input strings. While you are “in session,” the script updates running highs/lows and stores their bar indices. When the session closes, it freezes the prints and draws two horizontal lines: one at the session high (token “ASIA.H”, “LON.H”, “NYAM.H”, “NYLU.H”, “NYPM.H”) and one at the session low (“…L”).
– Prior period levels come from higher-timeframe requests: Previous Week’s High/Low from W, Previous Day from D (plus Mon/Tue/Wed using simple daily offsets). New periods wipe and redraw lines/labels cleanly.
– Key opens are stamped exactly when they occur (00:00 for Midnight, 18:00 for True Day, 08:30 for the print), then extended forward.
– Mitigation logic: if price trades beyond a level, either remove it entirely (Show Mitigated Levels = off) or stop extending the line and drop a small, persistent left-justified label where mitigation occurred (Show Mitigated Levels = on).
– Label combining: on each update, per-level labels are optionally cleared and replaced with one combined label per price level. The script groups by tick index, merges tokens (e.g., LON.H + PDH), and uses a small vertical offset loop to avoid label collisions at the same x-position.
Inputs you control
– Timeframe Limit: drawings will not appear on charts greater than or equal to this resolution.
– Timezone: default America/New_York.
– Label Settings
– Show Labels / Show Session High/Low Levels.
– Show Mitigated Levels: keep a small label where a level was traded through.
– Combine overlapping level labels: merge tokens into one label if prices match.
– Label sizes for levels and for session start/end text (sizes: Tiny/Small/Normal/Large).
– Visual Settings
– Colors for level lines and label text.
– Styles (Solid/Dashed/Dotted) for Previous Week and Previous Day blocks.
– Custom Labels
– Rename tokens for each session print (e.g., ASIA.H, LON.L, NYAM.H, etc.) to match your playbook.
– Key Opens
– Toggle Midnight Open, True Day Open (6 PM), and 8:30 Open lines; customize colors.
– Previous Week / Previous Day
– Toggle PWH/PWL and PDH/PDL; optionally plot Mon/Tue/Wed reference prints.
– Macro Sessions (toodegrees-style bracket)
– Toggle two macro windows (9:45–10:15 and 10:45–11:15).
– Choose bracket height in ticks, line style, label size/text, and optional price projection.
– The bracket is dynamic during its window (extends across the window; top adapts to new highs + chosen height; label centers on completion).
How to use it:
Pick your Timeframe Limit (e.g., 30) so the map only shows where you execute.
Enable the sessions you trade and keep the timezone aligned to your venue.
Turn on the prior period levels you care about (PWH/PWL, PDH/PDL, Mon/Tue/Wed).
Choose whether to preserve mitigated levels. If you journal, keeping mitigated tags helps with post-session review.
Enable combined labels to reduce clutter and spotlight confluence (e.g., LON.H aligning with PDH).
Use Macro windows for playbook timing (9:45–10:15, 10:45–11:15) to visualize typical volatility brackets.
Practical notes
– The indicator is a context and mapping tool; it does not produce signals. Use with your own bias, PD arrays, and execution model.
– Very long lookbacks or many toggles can push object limits on lower-powered machines. Use Timeframe Limit and feature toggles to keep things light.
– If you use custom sessions, ensure they do not overlap unexpectedly in your timezone.
– “Combine labels” intentionally removes per-level labels in favor of one merged label per price level; mitigated labels are preserved by design.
What’s unique here
– A full intraday “session print” system (Asia/London/NY AM/NY Lunch/NY PM) with clean freezing at session close and live line extension.
– True Day/Midnight/8:30 opens integrated into the same framework for a single, coherent liquidity map.
– Prior period structure (week/day + optional Mon/Tue/Wed) and toodegrees-style macro windows in one tool.
– Robust label merging by tick level with anti-overlap logic so multi-signal confluence is readable at a glance.

Unmitigated Imbalances [TakingProphets] (High Timeframe)Unmitigated Imbalances
Unmitigated Imbalance is designed to automatically detect and display active Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across multiple higher timeframes and your current chart. It only keeps the ones that remain unmitigated, helping you clearly see where price has “unfinished business” and potential liquidity draw areas. The tool extends these levels forward until they are tagged according to your chosen mitigation criteria, then removes them automatically.
The indicator uses the classic 3-bar FVG structure:
– Bearish FVG forms when the low of the third candle back is above the high of the first candle.
– Bullish FVG forms when the high of the third candle back is below the low of the first candle.
– Each detected gap must meet a minimum size threshold, which is determined automatically from the Sensitivity setting and adjusted for the symbol type.
Higher timeframes (up to 4) can be plotted simultaneously with your current chart’s gaps. The script merges overlapping levels from different timeframes into one clean label, showing all the contributing timeframes together (for example: M15 + H1 + H4). This makes it easy to spot high-confluence levels without cluttering your chart.
Key features
– Multi-timeframe detection: up to 4 custom HTFs plus your current chart.
– Automatic gap size filtering based on chosen Sensitivity (High, Medium, Low).
– Choice of Wick or Close-based mitigation logic.
– Lookback control: 1 Day, 1 Week, 1 Month, or Max.
– Combined labels for overlapping gaps with clear timeframe tags.
– Separate color and style settings for each timeframe’s bullish and bearish gaps.
– Labels can be positioned Left, Right, or Center Above for maximum clarity.
– Automatic line extension until mitigation or until they exceed the lookback period.
How to use
Select your desired higher timeframes in the HTF1–HTF4 settings.
Choose the Sensitivity level to control the minimum gap size detected.
Decide on Wick or Close mitigation according to your trading rules.
Use the Lookback setting to limit how far back the script checks for gaps.
Watch for levels where multiple timeframe labels are stacked — these can carry greater significance.
Incorporate the levels into your existing strategy, using them as context rather than entry signals.
Practical notes
– Current timeframe gaps reset each trading day to keep the chart relevant to intraday bias.
– Higher timeframe gaps remain until mitigated or until the lookback period expires.
– Large lookback periods with multiple HTFs can increase chart load — adjust settings as needed.
– This indicator is a mapping and context tool, not a signal generator. Always apply it alongside your own analysis.

Multi Timeframe Fair Value Gap Indicator ProMulti Timeframe Fair Value Gap Indicator Pro | MTF FVG Imbalance Zones | Institutional Supply Demand Levels
🎯 The Most Comprehensive Multi-Timeframe Fair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator on TradingView
Transform Your Trading with Institutional-Grade Multi-Timeframe FVG Analysis
Keywords: Multi Timeframe Indicator, MTF FVG, Fair Value Gap, Imbalance Zones, Supply and Demand, Institutional Trading, Order Flow Imbalance, Price Inefficiency, Smart Money Concepts, ICT Concepts, Volume Imbalance, Liquidity Voids, Multi Timeframe Analysis
📊 WHAT IS THIS INDICATOR?
The Multi Timeframe Fair Value Gap Indicator Pro is the most advanced FVG detection system on TradingView, designed to identify high-probability institutional supply and demand zones across multiple timeframes simultaneously. This professional-grade tool automatically detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), also known as imbalance zones, liquidity voids, or inefficiency gaps - the exact areas where institutional traders enter and exit positions.
🔍 What Are Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)?
Fair Value Gaps are three-candle price formations that create imbalances in the market structure. These gaps represent areas where buying or selling was so aggressive that price moved too quickly, leaving behind an inefficient zone that price often returns to "fill" or "mitigate." Professional traders use these zones as high-probability entry points.
Bullish FVG: When the low of candle 3 is higher than the high of candle 1
Bearish FVG: When the high of candle 3 is lower than the low of candle 1

ICT Confirmed FVG Indicator ICT FVG Indicator (Confirmed by Swings)
Summary
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) by confirming them with market structure. It filters out random imbalances and only highlights the FVGs that are created at the same time as a confirmed ICT Swing High or Swing Low.
The core principle is to connect price imbalances directly to significant shifts in market structure, providing a cleaner and more powerful signal.
What It Does
Identifies Swing Points: Automatically detects and draws confirmed swing highs (resistance) and swing lows (support) on your chart based on the settings you choose.
Finds Fair Value Gaps: It scans the chart for the classic 3-candle FVG pattern (also known as a BISI or SIBI).
Confirms FVGs with Swings: This is the most important feature. The indicator will only draw an FVG box if one of the three candles that created the FVG is also a confirmed swing point. This ensures you are only seeing imbalances that are directly related to a break in market structure.
Invalidates Old FVGs: To keep the chart clean, the indicator will automatically remove an FVG box after the price has fully passed through it a certain number of times (customizable in the settings).
Settings Explained
ICT Swings Settings
Left/Right Strength: Controls the sensitivity of the swing detection. Higher numbers require a more significant, obvious swing point to be confirmed. Lower numbers will identify more minor swings.
Max Swing Lines: Sets the maximum number of swing high and swing low lines to display on the chart at one time.
Swing High/Low Color: Customize the color of the swing point lines.
FVG Settings
Show Bullish/Bearish FVG: Use these checkboxes to turn the bullish (green) or bearish (red) FVG boxes on or off.
Bullish/Bearish FVG Color: Customize the color of the FVG boxes.
FVG Invalidation Threshold: This sets how many times the price can fully close on the other side of an FVG before the box is automatically removed.
Max Active FVGs to Show: Sets the maximum number of FVG boxes to keep on the chart to prevent clutter.
Key Features
High-Probability Signals: Filters out noise by focusing only on FVGs that are confirmed by a shift in market structure.
Clean Visuals: Automatically draws and removes swing lines and FVG boxes to keep your chart uncluttered.
Fully Customizable: Adjust the sensitivity of the swing detection and the appearance of the FVGs to fit your trading style.
Pure ICT Concepts: Built strictly on the principles of Inner Circle Trader for a method-consistent analysis.
Fractal Market Model [BLAZ]Version 1.0 – Published August 2025: Initial release
1. Overview & Purpose
1.1. What This Indicator Does
The Fractal Market Model is an original multi-timeframe technical analysis tool that bridges the critical gap between macro-level market structure and micro-level price execution. Designed to work across all financial markets including Forex, Stocks, Crypto, Futures, and Commodities. While traditional Smart Money Concepts indicators exist, this implementation analyses multi-timeframe liquidity zones and price action shifts, marking potential reversal points where Higher Timeframe (HTF) liquidity sweeps coincide with Low Timeframe (LTF) price action dynamics changes.
Snapshot details: NASDAQ:GOOG , 1W Timeframe, Year 2025
1.2. What Sets This Indicator Apart
The Fractal Market Model analyses multi-timeframe correlations between HTF structural events and LTF price action. This creates a dynamic framework that reveals patterns observed historically in price behaviour that are believed to reflect institutional activity across multiple time dimensions.
The indicator recognizes that markets move in fractal cycles following the AMDX pattern (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal). By tracking this pattern across timeframes, it flags zones where price action dynamics characteristics have historically shown shifts. In the LTF, the indicator monitors for price closing through the open of an opposing candle near HTF swing highs or lows, marking this as a Change in State of Delivery (CISD), a threshold event where price action historically transitions direction.
Practical Value:
Multi-Timeframe Integration: Connects HTF structural events with LTF execution patterns.
Fractal Pattern Recognition: Identifies AMDX cycles across different time dimensions.
Price Behavior Analysis: Tracks CISD patterns that may reflect historical shifts in order flow commonly associated with institutional activity.
Range-Based Context: Analyses price action within established HTF liquidity zones.
1.3. How It Works
The indicator employs a systematic 5-candle HTF tracking methodology:
Candles 0-1: Accumulation phase identification.
Candle 2: Manipulation detection (raids previous highs/lows).
Candle 3: Distribution phase recognition.
Candle 4: Continuation/reversal toward opposite liquidity.
The system monitors for CISD patterns on the LTF when HTF manipulation candles close with confirmed sweeps, highlighting zones where order flow dynamics historically shifted within the established HTF range.

ICT Order Blocks HTFICT Order Blocks HTF (with Parent Swing Confirmation)
This indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify high-probability Higher-Timeframe (HTF) Order Blocks by confirming them with significant liquidity sweeps on your trading chart. It combines two core ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts to filter out noise and highlight only the most sensitive areas.
The Core Concept: A High-Probability Model
The most powerful trading setups often occur when a significant event on a lower timeframe happens at a key area on a higher timeframe. This indicator automates that analysis by looking for a specific confluence:
A Liquidity Sweep (LTF): First, it identifies a "Parent Swing" on your current chart. This is a significant swing high (BSL - Buy Side Liquidity) or swing low (SSL - Sell Side Liquidity) that has been validated by a market structure shift. These are the key liquidity pools the market targets.
An Order Block (HTF): Separately, it looks at a higher timeframe of your choice (e.g., 15m, 1H) to find institutional order blocks—the last up or down candle before a strong move.
The Confluence: The magic happens here. The indicator will only draw an HTF order block on your chart if it forms at the exact moment the price is interacting with one of the BSL or SSL liquidity pools from your current chart.
This dual confirmation provides a refined, high-probability signal, indicating that a major liquidity event is fueling a reaction from a significant HTF level.
What the Indicator Does
Identifies Parent Swings: In the background, it constantly tracks and identifies BSL (red lines) and SSL (green lines) on your chart.
Finds HTF Order Blocks: It looks for bullish (last down-candle) and bearish (last up-candle) order blocks on the higher timeframe you select.
Draws Confirmed Zones: It draws a Bullish OB (Blue Box) only when an HTF bullish order block forms at an SSL level. It draws a Bearish OB (Orange Box) only when an HTF bearish order block forms at a BSL level.
Marks Key Levels: Each order block is automatically drawn with dashed lines marking its high, low, and midpoint (50% level) for precise entry and risk management.
Real-Time Invalidation: The order blocks extend into the future and are tracked in real-time. If price closes through a block a specified number of times, the zone is considered invalid and will be dimmed, keeping your chart clean.
How to Use This Indicator
The primary use for this indicator is to identify high-probability entry zones.
When a Bullish Order Block (Blue) appears, it signals a potential area of demand where you might look for long entries.
When a Bearish Order Block (Orange) appears, it signals a potential area of supply where you might look for short entries.
The internal lines (high, low, midpoint) can be used for more precise entries or for setting stop-loss levels.
Settings
Higher Timeframe for Order Blocks: Choose the HTF you want the indicator to analyze for order blocks (e.g., 15m, 1H, 4H).
OB Invalidation Threshold: Set how many times price must close fully through an order block before it is considered invalid.
Parent Swing Settings: You can adjust the lookback periods and invalidation threshold for the BSL/SSL detection to match your trading style. A larger lookback will find more significant liquidity pools.
Disclaimer: This indicator is a tool to assist in technical analysis. It is not a standalone trading system and does not provide financial advice. Always use proper risk management and combine this tool with your own analysis and trading strategy.
ICT Liquidity Pools SSL BSLParent Swings - ICT Liquidity Pools (BSL & SSL)
This indicator is designed to cut through the noise of the market and identify truly significant swing points. Instead of marking every minor high and low, it uses the powerful logic of ICT (Inner Circle Trader) breaker patterns to validate and draw only the "Parent Swings" that matter. These are the key liquidity pools that often act as the market's next target.
The Concept: Price Moves from Pool to Pool
A core concept taught by ICT is that price doesn't move randomly; it moves with purpose. The market is engineered to move from one pool of liquidity to the next.
Buy Side Liquidity (BSL): This is a pool of stop-loss orders resting just above a significant swing high. The market is often drawn upwards to "sweep" this liquidity.
Sell Side Liquidity (SSL): This is a pool of stop-loss orders resting just below a significant swing low. The market is often drawn downwards to sweep this liquidity.
This indicator identifies these key BSL and SSL levels after they have been confirmed by a shift in market structure, giving you a clear map of potential targets.
How It Works
The indicator doesn't just look for any swing high or low. It waits for a specific sequence of events to confirm that a swing is a "Parent Swing" and a valid liquidity pool:
Liquidity Sweep: First, it looks for a classic liquidity raid. For a significant high (BSL), it needs to see a swing high get taken out by a higher high. For a significant low (SSL), it needs to see a swing low get taken out by a lower low.
Market Structure Shift (MSS): After the liquidity sweep, the indicator waits for confirmation that the market's intention has changed. This happens when price breaks aggressively in the opposite direction, creating a breaker block pattern.
Confirmation: Only when both the liquidity sweep and the market structure shift are confirmed does the indicator draw the line, marking the swing as a valid BSL or SSL level.
How to Use This Indicator
The primary use for this indicator is to identify targets. Once a BSL (red line) or SSL (green line) is established, you can anticipate that the market will eventually make a run for that level.
If you are in a long position, the next BSL line above you can serve as a logical take-profit target.
If you are in a short position, the next SSL line below you can serve as a logical take-profit target.
The labels (BSL/SSL) will always stay with the current price action for active levels, making it easy to see your targets at a glance.
Settings
Pivot Lookback: Controls the sensitivity of the swing detection. A higher number will find larger, more significant liquidity pools.
Invalidation Threshold (Crossings): This is a key feature. It sets how many times the price must cross through a liquidity level before it's considered "used up" or invalidated. Once invalidated, the line will dim and the label will disappear, keeping your chart clean.
Disclaimer: This is a tool for technical analysis and should not be considered financial advice. Always use proper risk management and integrate this indicator with your own trading strategy.
ICT Breaker BlocksICT Breaker Block Detector
This indicator automatically identifies and displays high-probability ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Breaker Blocks on your chart. It is designed to help traders spot key shifts in market structure where price is likely to react.
What It Does
The indicator's primary function is to find and draw both Bullish and Bearish Breaker Blocks. These are specific price action patterns that signal a potential reversal after a liquidity sweep.
Bullish Breaker Block (Green): Forms after a low is swept (creating a lower low) and the market structure shifts by breaking above the intermediate swing high. This broken swing high becomes the Bullish Breaker.
Bearish Breaker Block (Red): Forms after a high is swept (creating a higher high) and the market structure shifts by breaking below the intermediate swing low. This broken swing low becomes the Bearish Breaker.
Invalidation: The indicator also tracks these zones in real-time. If price trades completely through a breaker block, the zone is considered invalidated. It will stop extending, its color will change to gray, and an exclamation mark ! will be added to its label.
How It Functions
The script's logic is designed to precisely identify the ICT breaker pattern:
Liquidity Sweep: It first identifies a sequence where a recent swing high is taken out by a higher high (for a bearish setup) or a swing low is taken out by a lower low (for a bullish setup).
Market Structure Shift (MSS): After the sweep, it waits for a clear break in market structure. This occurs when price closes below the intermediate swing low (for a bearish breaker) or above the intermediate swing high (for a bullish breaker).
Drawing the Zone: Once the MSS is confirmed, the indicator draws a box around the range of the swing point that was broken. This box is the Breaker Block, which is then extended into the future to serve as a potential area of interest.
How to Use This Indicator
Settings
Pivot Lookback: This setting determines the sensitivity of the swing point detection. A higher number will identify larger, more significant market structure and result in fewer, but potentially stronger, breaker blocks. A lower number will identify smaller, more immediate patterns.
Color & Display Options: You can customize the colors for the bullish, bearish, and invalidated zones, as well as toggle the visibility of each type of breaker.
Trading Application
Traders can use these automatically drawn zones as high-probability Points of Interest (POI). The common application is to wait for price to return to the breaker block after it has formed. This retest can offer a potential entry opportunity in the direction of the market structure shift.
For a Bullish Breaker, a trader might look for a long entry when the price dips back into the green zone.
For a Bearish Breaker, a trader might look for a short entry when the price rallies back up into the red zone.

AMD [TakingProphets]Accumulation Manipulation Distribution – Real-Time HTF Candle Projection for ICT/SMC Traders
Accumulation Manipulation Distribution (AMD) is a premium, real-time indicator designed for traders who use ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC). It projects higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly onto your lower timeframe chart, allowing you to monitor institutional price behavior without switching timeframes.
By continuously tracking the open, high, low, and close (OHLC) of active HTF candles, AMD helps traders interpret whether the market is in a phase of accumulation, manipulation, or distribution—a key concept for understanding institutional order flow.
Core Features and How It Works
1. Live HTF Candle Visualization
Displays complete HTF candles — including body and wicks — in real time.
Provides immediate higher timeframe context for lower timeframe execution.
Supports any timeframe from 1 minute to monthly.
2. Real-Time OHLC Projections
Projects the open, high, low, and current close of the active HTF candle as it develops.
Acts as evolving reference points for support, resistance, and directional bias.
Fully customizable with adjustable colors, line styles, and labels.
3. Session Timing and Labeling
Optional time labels mark candle openings and help anticipate session closes.
Supports 12-hour and 24-hour formatting for flexibility across markets.
4. Complete Visual Customization
Configure candle width, wick transparency, border color, and projection lines.
Maintain a clean, professional overlay that aligns with your preferred charting style.
How to Use AMD
Determine HTF Bias: Identify whether the active candle is expanding in your trade direction or showing signs of rejection.
Track Price Reaction: Monitor how price interacts with projected HTF highs, lows, and midpoints—especially during ICT killzones or after liquidity events.
Anchor Lower Timeframe Entries: Combine AMD with tools like Order Blocks, Liquidity Levels, or Rejection Blocks to confirm high-probability Smart Money setups.
This approach allows traders to synchronize LTF executions with HTF market structure, enhancing clarity and confidence in trade selection.
CRT [TakingProphets]Candle Range Theory (CRT) is an exclusive, closed-source indicator designed for traders who use ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC). It combines higher timeframe (HTF) visualization, Candle Range Transition (CRT) detection, and Smart Money Divergence (SMT) into one cohesive tool, giving traders a structured way to monitor institutional price behavior without switching timeframes.
Unlike generic market structure tools, CRT was built from the ground up to help traders:
Keep higher timeframe context visible directly on lower timeframe charts
Identify potential transition or rejection points in real time
Visualize correlated market divergences that are often invisible to the naked eye
This original approach is what makes CRT a premium, invite-only indicator. It is not a repackaged combination of common moving averages, oscillators, or support/resistance tools. It’s a specialized model designed to consolidate multiple ICT/SMC concepts into one workflow-friendly system.
How CRT Works
1. Higher Timeframe Candle Overlay
Projects up to three higher timeframe candles (1-minute to monthly) onto your active chart.
Displays open, high, low, and close with wick and body precision.
Lets you trade the lower timeframe with higher timeframe bias always visible.
2. Candle Range Transition (CRT) Detection
A Bearish CRT is detected when the current candle forms a higher high but closes lower than the previous candle.
A Bullish CRT occurs when the current candle forms a lower low but closes higher than the previous candle.
These transitions often highlight areas where price fails to continue its prior move, signaling a potential shift in delivery.
3. Smart Money Divergence (SMT)
Monitors correlated instruments (e.g., ES vs NQ, EURUSD vs GBPUSD).
Flags divergence when one instrument confirms a move while the other hesitates or rejects it.
SMT signals appear in real time, helping traders filter potential liquidity traps or engineered moves.
4. Real-Time HTF Candle Projections
Continuously plots the projected open, high, low, and close of the current HTF candle.
Acts as evolving reference points for support/resistance or decision-making zones.
5. Custom Display and Info Box
Fully configurable candle width, wick colors, label sizes, and transparency.
Built-in info box shows symbol, selected HTF timeframe, and session date for chart clarity.
6. Integrated Alert System
Four alert types:
• Bullish CRT
• Bearish CRT
• Bullish SMT Divergence
• Bearish SMT Divergence
Alerts help you track multiple instruments without staring at the screen all day.
Why CRT is Exclusive and Worth It
Most market structure indicators either plot generic support/resistance or recycle concepts already available in open-source scripts. CRT is original because:
It consolidates multiple ICT/SMC concepts (HTF bias, CRT transitions, SMT divergence) into one cohesive model.
It uses a proprietary visualization and detection method designed specifically for real-time application.
It provides clarity without chart clutter, allowing traders to make faster, more structured decisions.
While CRT does not execute trades or guarantee profits, it gives serious traders a unique analytical edge by revealing subtle higher timeframe and intermarket dynamics in real time.
If you understand ICT principles and Smart Money Concepts, CRT provides a workflow upgrade that simply isn’t available in free or generic scripts.
Prophet Model [TakingProphets]Indicator Description
The Prophet Model is a structured, logic-driven indicator designed specifically for traders familiar with ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodologies. Built to streamline the analytical workflow, this tool integrates multiple Smart Money Concepts into a clear and actionable trading framework, simplifying the identification of high-probability setups without chart clutter.
What Does This Indicator Do?
The Prophet Model guides traders by dynamically identifying and visually aligning key components of ICT methodology:
Higher Time Frame (HTF) PD Array Identification:
Automatically locates and maps critical Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) from higher timeframes onto your lower timeframe charts, clearly highlighting institutional areas of interest.
Candle Range Theory (CRT) Validation:
Monitors higher timeframe candles to detect shifts in market delivery, confirming directional bias according to ICT Candle Range Theory.
Liquidity Sweep Detection:
Precisely identifies buy-side and sell-side liquidity sweeps within marked HTF zones, clearly highlighting areas where price is likely to reverse or continue.
Change in State of Delivery (CISD):
Pinpoints the exact moment when market structure shifts via significant displacement, providing a clear reference point for trade entries.
Overlapping Fair Value Gap (FVG) Refinement:
Enhances entry precision by automatically adjusting entry points (EPE) when internal gaps overlap the CISD candle.
Risk Management Levels:
Dynamically calculates and plots your Stop Loss (SL), Break-Even (BE), and Take Profit (TP) levels based on actual structural movements (2.25x CISD range for TP, recent highs/lows for SL).
Real-Time Setup Checklist:
Provides a dynamic visual checklist confirming when all entry criteria (HTF PDA, CRT, Liquidity Sweep, CISD) are met.
Optimal Entry Tracking:
Marks refined entry points after CISD confirmation, automatically adjusting when internal imbalances (FVGs) are detected, ensuring accurate and efficient entries.
Chart Info Box:
Optionally displays complete symbol, timeframe, and indicator name for transparent chart annotations and efficient trade journaling.
How Does It Work?
Identify HTF Institutional Interest:
The indicator scans higher timeframes for unmitigated FVGs, displaying these critical zones automatically on your trading timeframe.
Confirm Market Delivery Shift (CRT):
Confirms directional conviction by comparing the range and behavior of recent higher timeframe candles.
Detect Liquidity Sweeps:
Clearly marks liquidity levels that have been swept, signaling potential price reversals or continuations.
Spot Displacement & Structure Shifts (CISD):
Highlights decisive movements indicating a significant change in market direction, crucial for entry timing.
Precision Entry Adjustments (EPE):
Refines entry positions by identifying overlapping FVGs within the displacement candle structure.
Manage Risk Clearly:
Calculates realistic SL, BE, and TP levels based on structural price action, removing guesswork and improving consistency.
Why Is It Worth Paying For?
Simplified Confluence-Building:
Removes ambiguity by automatically aligning multiple ICT criteria into a single, easy-to-follow visual workflow.
Precision & Efficiency:
Improves execution timing by dynamically updating entry and risk management levels based on actual market structure rather than arbitrary measures.
Real-Time Adaptation:
Continuously updates as market conditions evolve, providing confidence and clarity in dynamic trading environments.
Focused Trading Decisions:
Keeps traders disciplined by visually confirming setups step-by-step, aligning trades only with strong institutional-backed movements.
Important Considerations
This indicator is intended for traders with foundational knowledge of ICT methodologies.
It is not a standalone buy/sell signal provider; it must be combined with proper risk management and market narrative analysis.
Always use discretion and confirm the context of each trade within your overall trading strategy.
By providing traders with actionable insights and clear visual confirmations aligned strictly with professional ICT concepts, the Prophet Model significantly enhances trading decisions and execution precision.
NativeLenSA CISD w/1st 5m FVG5m CISD + FVG Indicator which works best on 5m TimeFrame, with the concept of 5m Liquidity sweeps of the previous highs/lows and the next candle closing below/above the opening price of candle that swept the highs/lows.
A line marking +CISD or -CISD will show as soon as the CISD is created, and a first 5m Fair Value Gap will also be displayed. This is advantageous for an extra confluence and re-entry.
The indicator also provides the trader with:
i. The flexibility of allowing to only show Bearish, Bullish or both Bearish and Bullish CISD + FVG,
ii. Showing only London Session, New York Session, or both London and New York Sessions' CISD & FVG,
iii. Option of hiding/showing 5m CISD+FVG on time frames greater than 5m,
iv. Adjustable:
(a) Look back bars (max=300),
(b) CISD line length,
(c) FVG line length,
v. Customizable Bearish and Bullish CISD line colors.
I hope you find value in this indicator, and convenient for time when trading, no CISD markups needed
Silver BulletSilver Bullet is a trading tool built for finding cleaner, higher-probability setups. It focuses on key windows of market movement and adds helpful tools like daily range levels and candlestick patterns.
Whether you’re trading breakouts or reversals, Silver Bullet gives you a clearer view of the market and more confidence in your setups.
⸻
🔹 Trading Setup #1: Macro Time
The Macro Time setting offers two modes: Macro Bullet and Silver Bullet. Both help traders focus on specific times when the market tends to deliver clean moves.
• Macro Bullet is based on the high and low of a full macro session. It automatically detects the session’s range and bias, then offers optimal entries for either Long or Short setups. Once the session resolves, it provides Fibonacci-based levels for entry, target, and stop loss.
• Silver Bullet is based on ICT concepts and focuses on the hourly range for London, NY AM, and NY PM sessions. It’s designed for quick time blocks and highlights key levels as the session unfolds.
To use this setup, set Macro Time to “ICT Sessions” and select your preferred mode under Bullet Mode.
⸻
🔹 Trading Setup #2: Daily Range
Enable Daily Range to draw Fibonacci levels based on either the previous day’s candle or the current day’s developing range. These levels help you identify potential support, resistance, and midpoint zones throughout the day.
With the current day’s range, levels automatically update in real time as new highs or lows form — keeping your chart aligned with evolving price action.
⸻
🔹 Trading Setup #3: Candlestick Patterns
Turn on Candlestick Patterns to automatically highlight clean reversal signals such as Hammers, Hanging Men, Shooting Stars, and Tweezers. Each pattern is detected using specific criteria and trend filters to reduce noise and improve reliability. They work especially well as confirmation signals around key levels or session zones.
Silver Bullet brings structure, clarity, and precision to your intraday trading. By combining time-based bias, price action levels, and pattern recognition, it helps you trade with purpose — not guesswork. Use one setup or combine all three for a complete view of the market, tailored to your style and session of choice.
ICT Smart Money Trading Suite [SwissAlgo]ICT/Smart Money Trading Suite - Technical Analysis Indicator
----------------------------------------------------------
OVERVIEW
The ICT/Smart Money Trading Suite is a technical analysis indicator that implements concepts from Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology and Smart Money Concepts (SMC).
ICT methodology was developed by Michael J. Huddleston (ICT) and focuses on understanding Institutional market behavior.
Smart Money Concepts builds upon these ideas to analyze how large Financial Institutions and/or Market Makers seem to operate in the markets.
This indicator combines multiple analytical tools into a single package for market structure analysis, imbalance detection, and the observation of institutional order flow.
----------------------------------------------------------
CORE COMPONENTS
Market Structure Analysis:
- External Structure : Major swing highs and lows that define broader price movement (these are the most significant structural points that institutions reference for their positioning and typically require substantial volume and momentum to break)
- Internal Structure : Shorter-term pivots showing micro-trend developments within the External Structure (these internal pivot highs and lows often represent areas where retail traders may be positioned on the wrong side of the market as they frequently form just before major structural breaks or trend continuations, creating liquidity that institutions can utilize)
- Structural Breakout Detection : Identification of structure breaks and potential trend changes ( 'Change of Character' which occurs when the External Structure shifts from bullish to bearish bias or vice-versa indicating a potential major trend reversal, and 'Break of Structure' which happens when price decisively takes out previous significant highs in a bearish trend or previous significant lows in a bullish trend confirming trend continuation or acceleration)
- EMA Cloud : Dynamic support and resistance zones with trend context (additional reference point)
Imbalance Zone Detection:
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs):
Price inefficiencies that occur between candles when sudden price moves create gaps in price delivery
Typically formed when the low of a bullish candle is higher than the high of the candle two periods prior, or when the high of a bearish candle is lower than the low of the candle two periods prior
These gaps represent areas where price moved too quickly without adequate two-way auction process
Institutions may return to fill these inefficiencies at a later time for proper price discovery
The theory suggests that all price ranges should eventually be traded through to complete the auction process
Gaps are automatically removed from the chart when price fully retraces back through the inefficient area
Order Blocks (OBs):
Specific candles that occur immediately before significant market moves and represent institutional decision points
Identified as the last opposing candle before a strong directional move (final bearish candle before major bullish move or final bullish candle before major bearish move)
These candles contain the orders and liquidity that institutions used as a foundation for their market manipulation
Represent areas where large institutional players positioned themselves to move the market significantly
Price may return to these levels to collect additional liquidity or test institutional resolve
The candle's full range (high to low) is considered the active zone where institutional interest may remain
Vector Candle Recovery:
Zones created by high-activity candles that demonstrate unusually large range and volume characteristics
These candles are interpreted as manipulative price pushes designed to hunt liquidity and trigger stop losses
Often used by institutions to induce retail traders into poor positions before reversing direction
Recovery zones represent the full range of these vector candles where price may retrace
The concept assumes that extreme moves often get partially retraced as the market corrects from artificial price displacement
Zones are invalidated when a significant portion of the vector candle range is retraced (typically 50% or more)
Support & Resistance:
Key price zones based on historical price reactions and pivot clustering analysis
Calculated through algorithmic identification of areas where price has repeatedly found buyers (support) or sellers (resistance)
Strength is determined by the number of times price has reacted from these levels and the volume of activity at these zones
Represent psychological and algorithmic reference points where institutional systems are likely to place orders
Create areas of increased probability for price reactions due to concentration of pending orders and decision-making activity
Zones are color-coded based on current price position: green for support (price above), red for resistance (price below), yellow for neutral (price within)
Liquidity Analysis:
- Liquidity Pools : Areas above or below key levels where stop orders may cluster
- Kill Zones : Time-based periods associated with increased market activity
- Daily/Weekly/Monthly Price Levels : Key institutional reference points (price highs/lows)
Vector Candles/Price Manipulation:
Advanced algorithm identifying statistically significant candles using volume delta analysis, range statistics, and persistence scoring.
