EBL - Enhanced BOS LogicEBL - Enhanced BOS Logic
The EBL (Enhanced Break of Structure Logic) script is a powerful tool for traders who want to identify and act on key structural shifts in the market. By combining visual cues, such as horizontal lines and dynamic arrows, the script highlights critical points of interest where market behavior may indicate significant bullish or bearish momentum.
What Makes EBL Unique?
Break of Structure (BOS) Identification:
The script dynamically detects when price breaks above or below significant highs and lows, marking these levels as key BOS points.
Once a BOS level is confirmed, it is displayed on the chart as a horizontal line, allowing traders to easily identify areas of potential support and resistance.
Real-Time Validation and Invalidations:
Bullish BOS levels remain active until a bearish candle closes below the initiating bullish candle.
Similarly, bearish BOS levels remain active until a bullish candle closes above the initiating bearish candle.
If a BOS level is invalidated, both the corresponding line and its arrow are automatically removed to maintain chart clarity.
Visual Clarity with Arrows and Lines:
Customizable triangle arrows (green for bullish and red for bearish) appear alongside lines to signal entry opportunities.
Traders can adjust line length, colors, and visibility of arrows to fit their charting style.
Alerts for Confirmation:
Receive alerts when bullish or bearish structures are confirmed, ensuring you never miss a signal even when away from your chart.
How the Script Works
Detection of Bullish and Bearish Structures:
The script identifies a "Bullish Break" when the price closes above the high of a bullish candle followed by a bearish one.
A "Bearish Break" is detected when the price closes below the low of a bearish candle followed by a bullish one.
Line and Arrow Placement:
Horizontal lines are drawn at the high or low of the respective BOS level.
Triangular arrows are plotted just below or above the respective levels to indicate potential trade opportunities.
Automatic Cleanup:
When a line is invalidated by opposing market movement, both the line and its connected arrow are automatically removed from the chart.
How to Use EBL
Settings:
Adjust line colors (green for bullish, red for bearish) to suit your charting theme.
Customize arrow visibility or hide lines if you prefer a less cluttered chart.
Set the horizontal line length to match your desired timeframe and analysis depth.
Trading Concepts:
Trend Reversal Zones: Use invalidated BOS levels as signals for possible trend reversals.
Momentum Trading: Follow confirmed BOS levels to identify areas where price momentum is likely to continue.
Dynamic Support and Resistance: Leverage the lines to identify evolving support and resistance zones.
Alerts:
Enable alerts to receive notifications when bullish or bearish trends are confirmed, allowing you to stay informed without constant monitoring.
Conceptual Basis
This script is based on the widely used market structure concept, which is fundamental to price action trading. By tracking the highs and lows created by bullish and bearish movements, the EBL script provides an objective and systematic approach to identifying and trading key structural points in the market.
With the EBL - Enhanced BOS Logic, traders can visually and systematically track market structure, identify potential trade setups, and maintain a cleaner chart with automated line and arrow management. This script is ideal for trend-following, scalping, and swing trading strategies across all markets and timeframes.

Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS [sgbpulse]Market Structure Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS
Overview: Smart & Fast Market Structure Analysis
The Market Structure "Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS " indicator is designed to empower your technical analysis by automatically and precisely identifying significant support and resistance levels. It achieves this by pinpointing high and low Pivot Points, plus key Pre-Market High/Low levels.
Its unique strength lies in its dynamic adaptability to any timeframe and any asset you choose. This tool analyzes the relevant market structure for the current timeframe and asset, providing you with accurate and relevant levels in real-time. The indicator maintains a clean chart and swiftly displays all support, resistance, and Pre-Market levels for any asset, saving valuable analysis time and enabling you to get a clear and quick snapshot of the market.
How the Indicator Works
The indicator identifies and displays three critical types of key levels:
External Pivots: These are more significant pivot points, indicating important reversal points across a broader range of price movement, considering the current timeframe. The indicator draws dark green support lines (for low pivots) and dark red resistance lines (for high pivots) from these points.
Internal Pivots: These are shorter-term pivot points, signifying smaller corrections or reversals within the overall structure of the current timeframe. These lines provide additional areas of interest within the ranges of the External Pivots.
Pre-Market High/Low Levels: The indicator displays the High and Low reached during pre-market hours as distinct lines on the chart. Please note: These levels will only appear when the selected timeframe is lower than one day (e.g., 1-hour, 15-minute) and provided that the "Session extended trading hours" option is enabled in your TradingView chart settings. These levels are crucial for identifying potential opening ranges and critical support/resistance areas upon regular market open, especially for intraday trading.
Break of Structure (BoS) Identification
A key feature of this indicator is its ability to identify Break of Structure (BoS). When a support or resistance line is breached, the indicator changes the line's color to gray and displays a "Break of Structure" label, indicating a potential trend change or continuation:
External BoS: When an external support/resistance line is broken, a "BoS" label in red will appear. This is a strong signal for a potential shift in the primary market structure or a strong trend continuation.
Internal BoS: When an internal support/resistance line is broken, an "iBoS" label in green will appear. This indicates a break within the existing market structure, which can be used to confirm direction or identify shorter-term entry/exit opportunities.
Full Indicator Customization
The indicator provides maximum flexibility to suit any trading style and timeframe:
Number of Lines Displayed: You can choose how many support and resistance lines you want to see on your chart. The default is 15 lines, but you can increase or decrease this number according to your needs and desired level of detail.
External Pivot Settings: Define the number of bars before and after a pivot point required for External Pivot identification.
Internal Pivot Settings: Define the number of bars before and after a pivot point required for Internal Pivot identification.
Color Customization: Full control over colors! You can change the colors of the support and resistance lines, the colors of the Pre-Market levels, and also the colors of the BoS and iBoS labels to create a visual appearance that perfectly matches your personal preferences.
This flexibility allows you to adapt the indicator to your trading style and any timeframe you operate in, without needing to manually change settings each time.
Recommended Uses
Clean Chart & Quick Analysis: The indicator displays important levels clearly, enabling quick identification of areas of interest without visual clutter on the chart. This significantly saves analysis time and allows you to make faster decisions.
Critical Levels for Any Timeframe & Asset: Get precise and adaptive support and resistance, plus essential Pre-Market levels (in relevant timeframes), for any timeframe and on any asset you choose.
Trend Direction Identification: Clear support and resistance lines help understand market structure.
Breakout Confirmation: The BoS label provides visual confirmation of key level breaches, helping to confirm potential trend changes.
Locating Entry & Exit Points: Use these levels as potential areas of interest for trades, after confirming a breakout or reversal.
Finding Stop-Loss & Take-Profit Points: Strategically place protective stops and profit targets around these support and resistance levels.
Important Note
Like any technical indicator, Market Structure "Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS " is a supplementary tool. It's highly recommended to use it in conjunction with additional analysis methods (such as price action analysis, other indicators, and fundamental analysis) for informed trading decisions. Financial markets are dynamic, and trading always carries inherent risk.

Enhanced BOS Strategy with SL/TP and EMA TableDescription:
The Enhanced BOS (Break of Structure) Strategy is an advanced open-source trading indicator designed to identify key market structure changes, integrated with dynamic Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels, along with an informative EMA (Exponential Moving Average) table for added trend analysis.
Key Features:
Break of Structure (BOS) Detection:
The script detects bullish and bearish BOS by identifying pivot points using a custom pivot period. When the price crosses above or below these points, it signals a potential market trend reversal or continuation.
Dynamic SL/TP Levels:
Users can toggle static SL/TP settings, which automatically calculate levels based on user-defined points. These levels are visualized on the chart with dotted lines and labeled for clarity.
Volume Filters:
The strategy includes a volume condition filter to ensure that only trades within a specified volume range are considered. This helps in avoiding low-volume trades that might lead to false signals.
EMA Table Display:
An on-chart table displaying the current values of the 13-period, 50-period, and 200-period EMAs. This provides a quick reference for trend identification and confirmation, helping traders to stay aligned with the broader market trend.
How It Works:
The script utilizes a combination of moving averages and pivot points to identify potential breakouts or breakdowns in market structure. When a bullish BOS is detected, and the volume conditions are met, the strategy suggests a long position, marking potential SL/TP levels. Similarly, it suggests short positions for bearish BOS.
The EMA table serves as a visual aid, providing real-time updates of the EMA values, allowing traders to gauge the market’s directional bias quickly.
How to Use:
Setting Parameters:
Adjust the pivot period to fine-tune BOS detection according to your trading style and the asset’s volatility.
Configure the SL/TP settings based on your risk tolerance and target profit levels.
Interpreting Signals:
A “Buy” label on the chart indicates a bullish BOS with volume confirmation, signaling a potential long entry.
A “Sell” label indicates a bearish BOS with volume confirmation, signaling a potential short entry.
The EMA table aids in confirming these signals, where the position of the fast, mid, and slow EMAs can provide additional context to the trend’s strength and direction.
Volume Filtering:
Ensure your trades are filtered through the script’s volume condition, which allows for the exclusion of low-volume periods that might generate unreliable signals.
Unique Value:
Unlike many other BOS strategies, this script integrates volume conditions and a visual EMA table, providing a comprehensive toolkit for traders looking to capture market structure shifts while maintaining an eye on trend direction and trade execution precision.
Additional Information:
This script is designed for use on standard bar or candlestick charts for best results.
It is open-source and free to use, encouraging collaboration and improvement by the TradingView community.
By combining powerful trend-following EMAs with the precision of BOS detection and the safety of volume filtering, the Enhanced BOS Strategy offers a balanced approach to trading market structure changes.
EBL - Enigma BOS Logic Select Higher Time FrameThe "EBL – Enigma BOS Logic" is a unique multi-timeframe trading indicator designed for traders who rely on structured price action and key level retests to find high-probability trade opportunities. This indicator automates the identification of significant price levels on a higher timeframe, plots them across all lower timeframes, and provides actionable signals (buy/sell) when price retests those levels. It is ideal for traders who focus on lower timeframes for precise entries while using higher timeframe structure for trend confirmation.
How the Indicator Works
Key Level Detection:
The indicator allows the user to select a key level timeframe (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily, Weekly). It then identifies Break of Structure (BOS) levels on the selected timeframe.
When a bullish-to-bearish or bearish-to-bullish reversal is detected on the selected timeframe, the corresponding high or low of the reversal candle is stored as a key level.
These key levels are plotted as horizontal lines on all lower timeframes, helping the trader visualize critical support and resistance zones across multiple timeframes.
Retest Confirmation:
Once a key level is established, the indicator continuously monitors the price action on lower timeframes.
If the price touches or crosses a key level, it is considered a retest, and an alert is generated.
The indicator plots a retest marker (customizable as a circle or diamond) at the exact price level where the retest occurred, providing a clear visual cue for the trader.
Trading Signals:
When a retest is detected, a table is displayed on the chart with the following information:
The trading pair.
The signal direction (Buy/Sell).
The price at which the retest occurred.
This table gives traders instant insight into actionable opportunities, making it easier to focus on live market conditions without missing critical retests.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: The indicator focuses on a higher timeframe selected by the user, ensuring that only the most relevant key levels are plotted for lower timeframe trading.
Dynamic Retest Signals: It dynamically identifies when price retests a key level and provides both visual markers and real-time alerts.
Customizable Retest Markers: Users can customize the retest marker's shape (circle/diamond) and color to suit their preferences.
Signal Table: A built-in table displays clear buy or sell signals when retests occur, ensuring that traders have all the necessary information at a glance.
Alerts: The indicator supports real-time alerts for retests, helping traders stay informed even when they are not actively monitoring the chart.
How to Use the Indicator
Select a Key Level Timeframe:
In the input settings, choose a higher timeframe (e.g., 4H or Daily) to define key levels.
The indicator will calculate Break of Structure (BOS) levels on the selected timeframe and plot them as horizontal lines across all lower timeframes.
Monitor Lower Timeframes for Retests:
Switch to a lower timeframe (e.g., 15m, 5m) to wait for price to approach the key levels plotted by the indicator.
When a retest occurs, observe the signal table and retest marker for actionable trade signals.
Act on Buy/Sell Signals:
Use the information provided by the signal table to make trading decisions.
For a buy signal, wait for bullish confirmation (e.g., price holding above the retested level).
For a sell signal, wait for bearish confirmation (e.g., price holding below the retested level).
Trading Concepts and Underlying Logic
The indicator is based on the Break of Structure (BOS) concept, a core principle in price action trading. BOS levels represent points where the market shifts its trend direction, making them critical zones for potential reversals or continuations.
By focusing on higher timeframe BOS levels, the indicator helps traders align their lower timeframe entries with the overall market trend.
The concept of retests is used to confirm the validity of a key level. A retest occurs when the price returns to a previously identified BOS level, offering a high-probability entry point.
Use Cases
Scalping: Traders who prefer lower timeframe scalping can use the indicator to align their trades with higher timeframe key levels, increasing the likelihood of successful trades.
Swing Trading: Swing traders can use the indicator to identify key reversal zones on higher timeframes and plan their trades accordingly.
Intraday Trading: Intraday traders can benefit from the real-time alerts and signals generated by the indicator, ensuring they never miss critical retests during active trading hours.
Conclusion
The "EBL – Enigma BOS Logic" is a powerful tool for traders who want to enhance their price action trading by focusing on key levels and retests across multiple timeframes. By automating the identification of BOS levels and providing clear retest signals, it helps traders make more informed and confident trading decisions. Whether you are a scalper, intraday trader, or swing trader, this indicator offers valuable insights to improve your trading performance.
FTR Rules BoS/ChoCh MarkupThis indicator marks Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (ChoCh) in the price structure on your charts. It runs on any timeframe. This indicator is useful for determining if you are seeing a trend change in the market or if you are only seeing a pullback with the market continuing in the direction of the trend. The indicator will look for price to break the previous BoS line or ChoCh line to mark a new BoS. When a BoS line is broken, it will then look for the lowest or highest pullback (depending on which way the market is trending) between to 2 BoS lines to mark the ChoCh line. When the ChoCh line is broken, it will mark that line as BoS and the previous BoS line will become ChoCh.
What makes this indicator unique from other BoS and ChoCh indicators is that it follows specific rules used by the FTR Trading group. The main difference is that the ChoCh line isn't changed to a BoS line from only a candle wick break. You will need a candle body break to move your BoS line to ChoCh. If a candle wick breaks your ChoCh line, you simply extend the ChoCh line to the new high or low of the wick. There are smaller differences that are proprietary to the FTR strategy.
Thunderbird BoSThe Thunderbird BoS script is meticulously crafted for those who thrive on higher timeframes (daily, weekly, monthly) and aim to capture the significant moves and trends in the market.
What does the Thunderbird BoS script do?
Breakouts are pivotal moments in investing, and the Thunderbird BoS script is your ally in identifying them. Here's how:
Breakout Detection: The script springs into action when there's a breakout of a specific Donchian setting, producing a signal.
Visual Aids: It doesn't just stop at signals. The script visually displays entry, stop, and compound levels right on your chart. This feature is especially handy when you hover over a bar, as it allows you to see levels from past signals, no matter how far back in time.
Trend Confirmation: The script is adept at producing entry signals in both confirmed bull and bear trends.
Filtering the Noise: Using the Donchian logic, the script confirms end-of-day entry points in a long-term trend and efficiently filters out fake breakouts and entry points in a sideways market.
How does BoS work?
The BoS is a product of meticulous calculations:
Breakout Signal: Upon detecting a breakout signal, the entry-level is determined. For a bullish breakout, it's calculated a specific % above the high, and for a bearish breakout, a specific % below.
Stop Calculation: Using the Average True Range (ATR) over a number of specific days, the stop loss is set below the entry for long positions and above for short positions.
Compound Levels: The compound level is also determined using an ATR formula above the entry for long positions and below for short ones.
What's the ideal timeframe for this script?
The Thunderbird BoS script is tailor-made for the daily timeframe. This ensures that breakout signals are derived from a comprehensive view of the market's movements.
What sets the Thunderbird BoS script apart?
The uniqueness of the Thunderbird BoS script lies in its:
Historical Insight: The ability to view levels from past signals by simply hovering over a bar. This feature aids in analysing entry levels from any point in the past and is displayed seamlessly in the data window.
Precision for Daily Timeframe: The script is specifically coded for the daily timeframe to:
Pinpoint the onset of potential long-term trends.
Confirm entry points at the end of the trading day, effectively filtering out intraday distractions.
Minimise the chances of fake breakouts in a trend.
Continuously generate entry points as the trend evolves, facilitating compounding.
Efficiently filter out breakouts in a sideways market.
In essence, the Thunderbird BoS script is an investor's tool for focusing on the quality of potential positions when investing in long-term market trends. It's not just about identifying trends; it's about making informed decisions based on them.

Internal/External Market Structure [UAlgo]The "Internal/External Market Structure " indicator is a tool designed to identify and visualize internal and external market structure based on swing highs and lows. It helps traders understand short-term (internal) and long-term (external) price behavior.
🔶 What are ChoCH and BoS?
Change of Character (ChoCH)
Change of character refers to the reversal of market trend either from bullish to bearish or bearish to bullish. ChoCH is also a break of market structure but in opposite direction.
If market is in bullish trend but it breaks it previous (higher) low and makes a lower low, it will be termed a “bearish change of character” as price changed its trend from bullish to bearish.
Like wise if price is in bearish trend and it breaks its previous (lower) high making a higher high it will be marked as “bullish change of character” as price changed its trend from bearish to bullish.
Break of Structure (BoS)
When price breaks its structure in direction of previous trend its called break of structure (BoS). So its a trend continuation pattern.
As you know in bullish trend price makes higher highs. Each time when price break a previous high and marks a new high its known as bullish break of structure.
But in bearish trend price makes lower lows so every time when price breaks previous low and makes a new low it is called as bearish break of structure.
🔶 Key Features
Internal Swing Length: Allowing for fine-tuning of sensitivity to smaller, more frequent market movements.
External Swing Length: Focusing on capturing broader market trends.
The indicator differentiates between internal and external market structures, using different styles and colors to represent each. Internal structures are shown with solid lines, while external structures use dashed lines, providing clear visual cues.
Internal Market Structure:
The internal market structure focuses on shorter-term swings and is useful for identifying minor trend changes and short-term price movements. Breaks of internal swing highs or lows can indicate potential changes in the market's direction or momentum. The labels "CHoCH" and "BoS" help distinguish between changes in character and break of structure events, respectively.
External Market Structure:
The external market structure captures larger, more significant market moves. It is particularly useful for identifying major trend changes and key support and resistance levels. The dashed lines and corresponding labels "CHoCH+" and "BoS+" indicate more substantial shifts in market sentiment.
For BoS (Break of Structure):
For ChoCH (Change of Character):

[TehThomas- Pro] - Liquidity SignalsOverview
This Pine Script indicator is designed to generate Buy and Sell signals based on liquidity sweeps and market structure shifts (MSS) or break of structure (BOS). The combination of liquidity sweeps and market structure changes provides a highly confluential signal that can be used to identify high-probability trade setups. This indicator is capable of working as a standalone tool or as part of a broader trading strategy.
Core Concepts
Liquidity Sweeps:
A liquidity sweep occurs when the price temporarily breaks a previous high or low, taking out stop losses or inducing breakout traders, only to reverse direction shortly after.
The indicator detects these liquidity sweeps at pivot points defined by a user-set pivotPeriod.
It plots Buyside Liquidity (resistance) or Sellside Liquidity (support) lines on the chart to indicate where liquidity pools are likely positioned.
Market Structure Shifts (MSS) and Break of Structure (BOS):
BOS: This occurs when the price closes above or below a previous swing high or low, indicating a potential shift in trend.
MSS: This is a more aggressive form of market structure change where the price action reverses after a liquidity sweep, signaling a potential reversal before a BOS confirmation.
The script tracks swing highs and swing lows using the pivot_strength setting to define how many bars are required on both sides of a pivot point.
Confluence of Signals:
The main signal is plotted when a Liquidity Sweep is followed by an MSS within a specified number of bars (25 by default).
This creates a high-probability trade signal because it combines both liquidity traps and market structure reversals.
Below, you can see the signals the indicator generates
There is one loss marked by the second circle.

How to Use the Indicator
Signal Confirmation:
A Buy Signal is most effective when combined with a liquidity sweep of sellside liquidity followed by a bullish market structure shift.
A Sell Signal is most effective when combined with a liquidity sweep of buyside liquidity followed by a bearish market structure shift.
Always check confluence with other indicators such as moving averages or volume analysis.
Trade Management:
Place stop-loss orders below the liquidity sweep low for buys or above the liquidity sweep high for sells.
Use the previous swing high or low as a target or set custom risk-reward ratios.

EBL identifies critical breakout levels (BOS - Break of Structure) on up to three selected timeframes and dynamically plots them as horizontal guidance lines. It combines these levels with trend analysis and user-defined filters to show only the most relevant data. The script offers flexibility to adapt to different trading styles, whether you're a scalper, day trader, or swing trader.
Key Features:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Users can select three distinct timeframes (e.g., 4H, 30m, 15m).
Execution timeframe (e.g., 1m or 5m) overlays the lines from the selected higher timeframes for real-time precision.
Customizable Guidance Lines:
Define line length (horizontal bars) and choose whether lines extend to the current price.
Individual color settings for bullish and bearish lines.
Trend Detection Filter:
Automatically determines the overall market trend based on the 50-period SMA on each selected timeframe.

Alerts:
Trigger alerts when price breaks above or below critical levels on any selected timeframe.
Users can choose to receive alerts only for specific timeframes.
How Does It Work?
Break of Structure (BOS):
The script captures key high and low levels on each selected timeframe.
Levels are dynamically updated as the market evolves.
Trend Filtering:
Trend direction is determined for each timeframe based on whether the close is above or below its 50-period SMA.
The overall trend combines signals from all three timeframes, providing a balanced and holistic view of the market.
User Control:
Customize everything: timeframes, colors, line behavior, and alert conditions.
Adjust filters to focus on your preferred time horizon (e.g., last 3 days).
How to Use:
Select up to three timeframes based on your trading strategy (e.g., 4H for macro view, 30m for intermediate trends, and 15m for precision).
Enable or disable the trend filter to control whether lines reflect the market's directional bias.
Configure alerts for breakout levels that align with your strategy.
Use the execution timeframe to see how higher timeframe levels interact with real-time price action.

smart money - main trend and counter trendIn today's dynamic financial markets, keeping ahead requires more than just technical analysis.
Introducing the Smart Money indicator – a Pine Script tool made to discover the activity of market maker.
Smart Money is a helpful method for traders seeking a deeper understanding of market dynamics. This method shows the actions of big investors and large financial firms.
Keen traders pay close attention to what market makers do to stay ahead.
Trading strategies based on the Smart Money aim to align with the actions of these informed players.
Similar to the price action method, Smart Money method involves using classic concepts like supply and demand, price patterns, and support and resistance.
This indicator not only identifies usual parameters like Break of Structure (BOS), Change of Character (CHOCH), Inducement (IDM), Engineering Liquidity (Eng), and Order Blocks (OB), but also excels at uncovering these market events within counter-trend (internal trend).
Break of Structure (BOS)
BOS is formed when the price breaks the market structure (reliable support or resistance level) in the direction of the trend.
Change of Character (CHOCH)
CHOCH is formed when the price breaks the market structure in the opposite direction of the trend. This indicates a change in the market behavior. When traders can see these changes, they can adjust their strategies early on.
Inducement (IDM)
Inducement is a concept based on liquidity principles and technically is the last price pullback in the market structure.
IDM is the extreme point of the last pullback in the structure when the price makes a BOS or CHOCH. It's like a trap that makes traders jump into the market too early.
Engineering Liquidity (Eng Liq)
Also known as trend line liquidity and technically is the first extreme point in that trend.
Order Blocks (OB)
Order blocks are strategic market areas that indicate the final bearish or bullish activity before a significant price shift.
An Order Block is a handy tool that helps us see where the big guys are likely to put their money (potential reversal zones).
OB is determined based on the extreme points by considering last opposite candle (before a significant price movement) and fair value gaps.
This indicator has the ability to identify the decisional order block (the closest OB) and the extremum order blocks (the farthest OB).
Counter Trend
The standout feature of this indicator lies in its ability to detect and display all above features within internal trends.
Internal trends or counter trend, where the market moves against the main trend, are often challenging to navigate.
This comprehensive feature enables traders to navigate market complexities with confidence, identifying potential trend reversals and strategic entry points even when the broader trend suggests otherwise.
Some features of this indicator:
- Ability to identify BOS, CHOCH, IDM, Eng Liq and OBs in both main trend and counter trend.
- The text, color and size of each characteristic of the main trend and the counter trend are optional and you can manage their display type on the chart
- Ability to display swings with HH, LH, LL and HL labels
- Sending alarms when the price hits any of the levels (alarm levels are optional for both the main trend and the counter trend)
- Sending sweep alarms of each level (optional)
- Ability to display main structures and internal structures with desired color and thickness
- The possibility of displaying live and real-time structures
- Ability to see decision boxes
- Showing the structure trend by changing the background color
Structure_TradingHubThe smart money concept suggests that institutional traders have a greater understanding of the market and often have access to more information than retail traders. Therefore, by analyzing market structure, retail traders can align themselves with the actions of smart money and potentially profit from their moves.
This indicator considerably simplifies the process of identification of market structure for traders based on the TradingHUB-3 technical method. Therefore, it is quite different from the existing market structure or trend detection tools, even the other smart-money-based indicators.
How it works:
The indicator starts candlestick analysis from the given start point detecting followings items.
1) Identify valid pullbacks (minor Zigzag):
Uptrend: In the upward trend, each candle that hits a higher high (HH), acts as our checking candle, and if the next candle hits its low, a valid pullback is formed, and we marked the checking candle as the end of a minor leg. Note that we do not take inside bars into account. If the highest point of the leg hit, the lowest point is marked as the end of pullback leg. On the other hand, if the lowest point of the upward leg is hit, the pullback checking procedure is restarted as a downtrend. Note that the downward checking is restarted from the highest point (previous checking candle).
Downtrend: The pullback detection for downtrend follows the reverse procedure of uptrend.
2) Identify inducements (IDM)
The last pullback point (on the minor zigzag) considers as the inducement level. In the uptrend, if the price hit the IDM, the highest point on the major leg is accepted as a major higher high. Note, if the IDM point is equal to a major HL and hit by price, the highest point is accepted as a new HH and the previous HH and LL are deleted (i.e. the HH is transferred).
In the downtrend, it acts conversely.
3) Identify valid break of structures (BOS)
In the uptrend, if the price closed above the highest point between the previous accepted HH to the current candle, a BOS is accrued, and the lowest point in this time interval is accepted as a higher low (HL). In the downtrend, it acts contrariwise.
4) Identify valid change of characters (Choch)
In the uptrend, if the price closed below the lowest point between the previous accepted HL to the current candle, a Choch is accrued, and the major trend changes from uptrend to downtrend, and a new reverse IDM will be detected. In the downtrend, it acts inversely.
5) Identify major HH/HL/LL/LH points
By following the above steps, the major higher highs, higher lows, lower highs, and lower lows, as well as the major trend are detected. The major high and lows on the major trend can be displayed by zigzag style or bullet points with corresponding up/down color.
How to use it:
This indicator works in any chart timeframe, and it does not need much tunning for use. Although, two parameters can be modified:
1- Starting Point:
Mode 1: Go back a certain number of candles in the past to find the starting point.
Mode 2: Use the last major swing that is higher/lower point between X candles right and left.
2- Choch/BOS min ticks' confirmation: The user can set an extra pipettes value that price should close higher/lower than the major H/L for more confirmation.
A trader can use this indicator for trading through the following steps (Of course, the trader is not restricted in these steps and can act according to its trading strategy):
1- Recognize the trend direction by seeing the H/L or zigzag color.
2- Identify the unmitigated IDM, which is marked by "X". When the inducement hit, the level is marked by "IDM", and a major H/L is confirmed.
3- Identify an order block to trade on it. We recommend users to add "OrderBlock_TradingHub " indicator to identify valid order blocks easily according to this technical method.
4- Go to the lower timeframe to find a trigger.
Indicator Options:
1) Set the starting point based on a certain number of candles or a major swing.
2) Show/Hide Pullbacks zigzag
3) Show/Hide Inducements (IDM)
4) Show/Hide Change of Characters (CHoCHs)
5) Show/Hide Break of Structures (BOS)
6) Draw up/down Trend
7) Draw H/L Points (by major Zigzag or Bullets)
8) Set CHoCH/BOS min pipettes for confirmation
9) Change the color and style of elements on the chart
(ICT)Liquidity Grab + FVG + MSS/BOSThis script is a comprehensive educational indicator that combines and enhances several well-known trading concepts:
Liquidity Grabs (Swing Failure Patterns)
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Market Structure Shifts / Break of Structure (MSS/BOS)
Alerts
It identifies potential bullish and bearish liquidity grabs, confirms them optionally using volume validation on a lower timeframe, and tracks subsequent price structure changes. The indicator visually marks key swing highs/lows, FVG zones, and BOS/MSS levels—allowing traders to observe how price reacts to liquidity and imbalance zones.
🔍 Features:
Swing Failure Patterns (SFP):
Highlights possible liquidity grabs based on recent highs/lows and candle structure.
Volume Validation (Optional):
Filter signals using relative volume outside the swing on a lower timeframe. Adjustable threshold.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
Detects imbalance gaps and extends them for easy visualization.
Market Structure (MSS/BOS):
Displays Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) based on pivot highs/lows and closing conditions.
Dashboard:
A compact info panel displaying lower timeframe settings and validation status.
Custom Styling:
Adjustable colors, line styles, and label visibility for clean charting.
🧠 Ideal For:
Traders studying ICT concepts, smart money theories, and price-action-based strategies who want a visual tool for analysis and backtesting.
How to Use:
Wait for a Liquidity Grab (SFP) to form
The first condition for a potential entry is the formation of a Stop Hunt / Swing Failure Pattern (SFP).
This indicates that liquidity has been taken above or below a key level (e.g., previous high/low), and the market may be ready to reverse.
Confirmation with Fair Value Gap (FVG) and Market Structure Shift (MSS)
After the SFP, do not enter immediately. Wait for confirmation:
FVG : A Fair Value Gap (an imbalance in price action) must appear, signaling potential institutional activity.
MSS : A Market Structure Shift (break in the current trend) confirms a possible trend reversal or strong corrective move.
Enter the trade
Once both the FVG and MSS are confirmed after the SFP, you can safely enter a trade in the direction of the shift.
Alert Feature
The indicator includes an alert system to notify you when all conditions are met (SFP + FVG + MSS), so you can react quickly without constantly watching the chart.
Market Structure: BoS & CHoCH (Math by Thomas)📌 Description:
Market Structure: BoS & CHoCH (Math by Thomas) is a clean and reliable market structure tool designed to visually mark Swing Highs, Swing Lows, and classify each one as HH (Higher High), LH (Lower High), LL (Lower Low), or HL (Higher Low) based on price action. It also detects and labels Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) to help identify potential continuation or reversal in trend.
🛠️ How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart (works on any timeframe and asset).
Adjust the "Swing Sensitivity" input to fine-tune how many bars the script uses to detect a swing high/low. A higher number smooths out noise.
The script will automatically:
Mark every confirmed swing high or low with a solid line.
Label the swing as HH, LH, HL, or LL depending on its relative position.
Show BoS (trend continuation) or CHoCH (trend reversal) labels with the current trend direction.
Toggle labels or lines on or off with the corresponding checkboxes in settings.
🔍 Tip:
Use this indicator alongside other tools like volume or RSI for more confident entries. A CHoCH followed by two BoS in the same direction often signals a strong trend reversal.

Gold Scalping BOS & CHoCHThis strategy is designed for scalping gold (XAU/USD) on the 3-minute timeframe, utilizing Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) to identify high-probability trade setups. Unlike traditional SMA crossover strategies, this method focuses purely on price action and market structure shifts, allowing for early entries and better risk management.
Core Concepts:
Break of Structure (BOS) – Confirms a continuation of the trend when price breaks the last swing high (bullish) or last swing low (bearish).
Change of Character (CHoCH) – Detects possible trend reversals by identifying a shift in market momentum.
Dynamic Support & Resistance – Uses the last 10-bar highs and lows to determine adaptive stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels.
Risk-to-Reward Ratio (1:2 RR) – Ensures trades are executed with a favorable risk/reward ratio.
Entry Conditions:
Buy Entry:
BOS (Bullish) confirmed (price breaks the previous swing high).
CHoCH (Bullish) confirms trend shift.
Price crosses back above the last swing low (confirmation of support).
Sell Entry:
BOS (Bearish) confirmed (price breaks the previous swing low).
CHoCH (Bearish) confirms trend shift.
Price crosses back below the last swing high (confirmation of resistance).
Exit Conditions:
Stop Loss (SL): Set at the most recent dynamic support (for buys) or resistance (for sells).
Take Profit (TP): 2x the risk (1:2 risk-reward ratio).
Advantages of This Strategy:
✅ No lagging indicators – Uses price action for real-time entries.
✅ High probability setups – Focuses only on strong structural breaks.
✅ Adaptive SL/TP – Uses real market structure instead of fixed values.
✅ Optimized for Scalping – Best suited for quick in-and-out trades.

Market Structure (Intrabar) [LuxAlgo]The Market Structure (Intrabar) indicator is designed to automatically detect and highlight real-time intrabar market structures, a core component of the Smart Money Concepts methodology.
🔶 USAGE
The proposed indicator gives a detailed picture of the most recent candle lower timeframe trends, highlighting market structures within them.
This can be particularly useful to assess the price dynamic within the most recent candle. For example, we can see how pronounced a trend is by the number of opposite bullish/bearish market structures formed within the candle.
Users can select the intrabar timeframe of interest from the "Intrabar Timeframe" setting, using a timeframe significantly lower than the chart timeframe will return more intrabar candles and potentially more market structures.
🔹 Dashboard
Users have access to a dashboard returning useful statistics such as the number of formed CHoCH's and BOS's from the intrabar prices. These can be indicative of how predominant a trend is within the intrabar data or if there exist multiple trends.
🔶 DETAILS
Market structures allow determining trend continuations as well as trend reversals in the market through two distinct structures:
🔹 Change of Character (CHoCH)
A change of character (CHoCH) refers to a shift in the market behavior of a security that is driven by changes in the underlying supply and demand dynamics. CHoCH's are indicative of confirmed reversals.
🔹 Break of Structure (BoS)
The break of structure (BoS) refers to the point at which a key level of support or resistance is broken. BOS's are indicative of confirmed trend continuations.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹Inside the Bar Market Structure
Intrabar Timeframe: Lower timeframe setting option, if set to 'Auto' the script will determine the lower timeframe based on the chart timeframe.
Intrabar Market Structure, Length: Toggles the visibility of the break of structures and change of characters. Length defines the detection length of the swing levels.
Intrabar Swing Levels: Toggles the visibility of the swing levels, including a color customization option for highs and lows.
Intrabar Statistics: Toggles the visibility of the dashboard. Some further statistical details are presented in the tooltips of the table cells
🔹 General
Market Structure Colors: Color customization option for the break of structure and change of character lines and labels.
Intrabar Candle Colors: Color customization option for intrabar candles.
Intrabar Candles Horizontal Offset: Adjusting the intrabar candles horizontal position
Dashboard: Dashboard position and size customization option
🔶 LIMITATIONS
Please note that seconds-based intervals are available for premium and professional plan holders, which implies that the seconds-based intervals usage of the indicator may not be available for all users depending on their subscription plan.

Mark StructureMark Structure is building the market swing structure, minor and sub structure and marks all possible insignificant pivots
Building such structure is really complex task to do, that has a lot of obstacles and challenges. I'm doing my best to develop this indicator behaving in absolutely expectable and right way. Fill free to leave any comments or bug reports.
it supports:
- Marking all pivots with labels or join them continuously with trend lines.
- Marking minor and sub structured swings with labels or join them continuously with trend lines. Marking BOS or SMS BOS, which are mbos. Minor and substructure are structures inside swing structure and it can differ from the structure of lower timeframe
- Marking swings of swing structure with labels or join them continuously with trend lines. Marking BOS or SMS BOS of swing structure
- Changing bullish and bearish colors of each kind of structures
- Changing pivot labelings
- Changing colors of BOSs
Remarks:
- As I told you guys before, it has a lot of challenging cases. eg we have swing low and high on the same candle and in order to decide which pivot goes first I take lower time frame data to figure out what pivot is the first, but it happens that on lower time frame the same issue takes place, due to limitation of TradingView I can't go infinitely to lower timeframes to solve this issue, so I mark those cases with labels
- Another issue is very beginning of the trend its hard to detect swing structure there due to missing historical data. so skip a few waves in the very beginning
- Don't expect to have minor and sub structure in each swing waves, its totally fine when you don't have them at all
- Swing structure is the most significant structure and shows real price direction. Trend change is confirmed when for bull->bear the last HLbull LH>HH and HH-HL-HH are confirmed. You can change labelling for unconfirmed swing trend in the settings. By default its already done
