Interest Rate and GDP Dashboard by toodegreesDescription:
The Interest Rate and GDP Dashboard is a powerful tool designed to provide traders with valuable insights into Interest Rate and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the largest Central Banks.
Interest Rates are closely monitored from all around the world, and play a massive role in Interbank Institutional Trading. Although mainly used by Forex traders, it's important for all types of analysts to understand risk-on and risk-off environments in respective currencies, or other asset classes, based on a global financial landscape.
Forex Pair Dashboard ( FOREXCOM:EURUSD ):
Non-Forex Pair Dashboard ( CME_MINI:ES1! ):
This tool displays the Live Interest Rates (as well as latest Interest Rate Change) and GDP, of the following countries/regions:
Australia
Canada
Europe
Japan
New Zealand
Switzerland
United Kingdom
United States
Further, analysts will be able to see Interest Rate Change labels directly on chart, to monitor Time and price relationship following rate hikes or rate cuts. The labels will display according to the impact of the Interest Rate Change on the current asset on chart, and their tooltips will display the %Change:
Analysts can also choose to mark Interest Rate Changes with vertical lines, to aid in marking changes in sentiment or global financial environment:
The real power and value provided by this tool is its tailored Interest Rate (and GDP) Differential feature for Forex markets, based on the Interest Rate Differential concept as taught by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT).
Using Interest Rate Differentials as a further Long Term Bias factor was introduced by ICT in conjunction with other higher Timeframe principles like Seasonal Tendency, Commitment of Traders, and Open Interest. This fusion ensures a holistic approach to dissecting specific Forex pairs, and the involvement of Institutional traders.
Key Features:
Dynamically calculates and organizes the dashboard to display the interest rate differential of the chart's forex pair, or displays all if outside of forex markets.
Pinpoint historical interest rate changes with precision using vertical lines and/or dynamic labels with tooltips.
Other Features:
Toggle Options: Customize your viewing experience by toggling the display of previous rate changes, enabling or disabling GDP visibility, and tailoring the size and location of the dashboard.
Fine-tune Visuals: Adjust the size and style of the previous interest rate labels and lines to suit your preferences, offering a personalized touch to your analytical workspace.
Usage Guidance:
Add the Interest Rate and GDP Dashboard to your Tradingview chart.
Tailor your experience by customizing the table and style to be in line with your analytical preferences, ensuring a visually engaging and personalized chart.
Observe where and when key Interest Rate decisions impact the macro trend or market environment.
Leverage this invaluable information to shape your Higher Timeframe narrative in confluence with other tools.

AMDX-XAMDGuided by ICT tutoring and also inspired by the teaching of
Daye', I create this versatile "AMDX" indicator.
A = Accumulation
M = Manipulation
D = Distribution
X = Continuation Or Reversal
This indicator shows a different way of viewing all the Timeframes by dividing them into Quarters, in this context the Trading sessions are divided into a 90m cycle, dividing each time range into Q1-Q2-Q3-Q4, in this way you have a clear vision of what the price is likely to do
True Open Times =
Opening Week - Monday at 6pm
Opening Day - 00:00
Asia -7.30pm
London -01.30
New York -07:30
PM -1.30pm
Session Times =
Q1 Asia 18:00-00:00
Q2 London 00:00-06:00
Q3 New York 06:00-12:00
Q4 PM 12:00-18:00
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose whether to display AMDX W
- Choose whether to display AMDX D
- Choose whether to display AMDX Session
- Choose to show the text in the Box
- Choose to show open levels
The indicator should be used as ICT and 'Daye' show in their concepts.
The indicator divides everything into Quarter ranges and classifies them into Q1-Q2-Q3-Q4 (as in the example above), and each Quarter has its own specific function, and can be used in this way:
If Q1 does an expansion it is likely that Q2 will do a consolidation, Q3 will do a Manipulation and Q4 will do a reversal returning to Q1
-If we are Bullish we buy under Open Session
-If we are Bearish we buy above open session
As in the example below:
If something is not clear, comment below and I will reply as soon as possible.
Immediate rebalanceGuided by the new ICT tutoring, I create this versatile Immediate Rebalance indicator
This indicator shows a different way on how to view the "Spikes or Shadows", based on the direction of the price this indicator divides the "Spike or Shadows" into levels 0.5 - 0.75 - 0.25 Fibonacci, giving the possibility to view the levels both in normal or in pre-Macro times
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose to have Spike levels shown in MultiTimeframe
- Choose to show Sike levels only Bullish or only Bearish
- Choose to show Sike levels only in pre-Macro/Macro times
- Choose to view the maximum amount of levels with Max Show
The indicator must be used as ICT shows in its concepts, the indicator takes into consideration the last 2 candles already closed so on the candle that is forming it is possible to expect reactions on the levels it marks, below is an example of how to use it in MultiTimeframe
Below I show an example on how to set the indicator to see Immediate Rebalance in Macro times
Below is an example of when not to take the indicator into consideration
Liquidity Sentiment Profile (Auto-Anchored) [LuxAlgo]
The Liquidity Sentiment Profile (Auto-Anchored) is an advanced charting tool that measures by combining PRICE and VOLUME data over specified anchored periods and highlights the distribution of the liquidity and the market sentiment at specific price levels. This version is a variation of the previously published Liquidity Sentiment Profile , wherewith this version allows users to select a variety of different anchoring periods, such as 'Auto', 'Fixed Range', 'Swing High', 'Swing Low', 'Session', 'Day', 'Week', 'Month', 'Quarter', and 'Year'
Liquidity refers to the availability of orders at specific price levels in the market, allowing transactions to occur smoothly.
🔶 USAGE
A Liquidity Sentiment Profile (Auto-Anchored) is a combination of liquidity and a sentiment profile, where the right side of the profile highlights the distribution of the traded activity at different price levels, and the left side of the profile highlights the market sentiment at those price levels
The liquidity profile is categorized by assigning different colors based on the significance of the traded activity of the specific price levels, allowing traders to reveal significant price levels, such as support and resistance levels, supply and demand zones, liquidity gaps, consolidation zones, etc
The Liquidity Sentiment Profiles aim to present Value Areas based on the significance of price levels, thus allowing users to identify value areas that can be formed more than once within the range of a single profile
Level of Significance Line - displays the changes in the price levels with the highest traded activity (developing POC)
Buyside & Sellside Liquidity Zones - displays Liquidity Levels, also known as Supply and Demand Zones
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters and plots the profiles, where detailed usage for each user-defined input parameter in indicator settings is provided with the related input's tooltip.
🔹 Liquidity Sentiment Profile
Anchor Period: The indicator resolution is set by the input of the Anchor Period.
Fixed Period: Applicable if the Anchor Period is set to 'Fixed Range' then the period of the profile is defined with this option
Swing Detection Length: Applicable if the Anchor Period is set to 'Swing High' or 'Swing Low' then the length required to detect the Swing Levels is defined with this option which is then used to determine the period of the profile

Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal) [LuxAlgo]The Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal) indicator is an experimental take on classical market structure, whereas fractal patterns are used for their construction instead of swing points.
Compared to utilizing swing points for highlighting market structure like our Smart Money Concepts indicator , fractal-based market structure can appear as more adaptive, however, it can also be more restrictive when it comes to returning swing points which can cause the indicator to miss reversals in some cases.
If enabled from within the settings, users can see support and resistance levels returned from the detected market structure with breakouts highlighted on the chart. Alongside this feature, an additional dashboard showing the structure to fractal structure percentage is also provided.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Length of the fractal patterns to detect.
🔹 Style
Bullish Structures: Show bullish structures.
Bearish Structures: Show bullish structures.
Support: Show support levels.
Resistance: Show resistance levels.
🔹 Dashboard
Show Dashboard: Show structure to fractal percentage dashboard on the chart.
Location: Location of the dashboard on the chart.
Size: Dashboard size.
🔶 USAGE
Market structure is commonly used to determine trend direction by using price positions relative to prior swing points. Using fractal patterns to determine market structure can allow users to obtain shorter, more frequent structure labels.
Market structure is commonly classified as follows:
Change of Character (CHoCH), also referred to as Market Structure Shift (MSS)
Break of Structure (BOS), also referred to as Market Structure Break (MSB)
Change of Characters indicate a shift in the market trend, confirming trend reversals. Break of Structures on the other hand occur once a trend is already determined, confirming new higher highs/lower lows.
Using higher length values allow users to detect longer-term fractals, thus highlighting longer-term market structures. The image above detects fractal patterns made of 7 candles, even if the increment is only of 2 bars this significantly reduces the amount of detected market structure labels.
The result obtained by utilizing fractals and higher settings can be a more dynamic view of market structure, however, as seen in the image above this can introduce very significant delay compared to utilizing pure swing points.
🔹 Support/Resistance
The indicator also returns support/resistance levels constructed from the market structure, these levels are obtained similarly to order blocks, finding the minimum on the interval of a bullish market structure and the maximum of a bearish market structure.
Price reaching a support/resistance level can be expected to bounce from it. Once a level is broken, the support/resistance level will no longer extend, and a circle will be displayed highlighting the break.
While utilizing this script for fractal-based market structure, these levels can be useful to ensure all swing points are still considered by the user with the possibility of the indicator missing reversals due to its calculation not being based on swing points themselves.
🔹 Dashboard
The dashboard reports the structure to fractal percentage, that is the amount of bullish/bearish market structures relative to the total amount of detected bullish/bearish fractal patterns.
This allows us to see how often a detected fractal pattern is used to display a market structure.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Fractals
In the context of technical analysis, Fractals refer to specific patterns that exhibit self-similarity at different scales or timeframes.
The most commonly known fractal pattern consists of a consecutive sequence of candles (more commonly 5), with the central candle being the lowest (in case of a bullish fractal) or highest (in case of a bearish fractal).
A bullish fractal has candles on the right side of the central candle with increasing lows, while candles on the left side have decreasing lows.
A bearish fractal has candles on the right side of the central candle with decreasing highs, while candles on the left side have increasing highs.

30MIN CYCLE█ HOW DOES IT WORK?
The known 90 min cycle is used as one killzone. But actually all 18 min are relevant to search for a trade. All 18 min when a new box starts only then is the placement of an order valid. If the entry candle isn't in a box then it will probably fail. The boxes should only be used in the M1 or M5 timeframe. The best hitrate is in the M1 timeframe. Included are the last 48 "Mini-Killzones" für intraday trading and backtesting. These "Mini-Killzones" can be used with the "Liquidity Inducement Strategy".
█ WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE?
This is the first indicator on tradingview that shows all mini-killzones for trading and backtesting a whole tradingday. The well-known killzones of ICT are from 08:00-11:00 and 14:00 - 17:00 (UTC+1) but with this indicator there is finally a refinement of the ICT Smart Money Concept killzones.
█ HOW TO USE IT?
For a proper use of this indicator we suggest to know already at least SMC or better Liquidity Indcuement Trading. This indicator is a further confluence before placing an order. After you made your setup you will have these mini-killzones as a confluence. We don't suggest to open a trade only according to this indicator.
█ ADDITIONAL INFO
This indicator is free to use for all tradingview users.

cd_bias_profile_Cxcd_bias_profile Cx
Overview:
cd_bias_profile_Cx is an all-in-one professional analysis terminal designed to determine market direction (Bias) based on institutional trading strategies (SMC & ICT). This tool integrates multi-timeframe (MTF) data, institutional liquidity sweeps, SMT divergences, and candle closure confirmations into a single cohesive structure, providing traders with a comprehensive map of institutional Order Flow.
🚀 Advanced Hierarchical Profile Architecture
The indicator visualizes the market through a three-layered hierarchy (Major, Middle, Plot), allowing you to see exactly which higher-tier structure the current price action is serving.
• Smart Timeframe (Auto-TF) Logic: In "Auto" mode, the system automatically selects the most logical hierarchy based on your chart interval using the following sequence:
.
o Example Scenario: If your chart is set to 5-Minute (5m):
Major (Macro Structure): H4 (The outermost container candle)
Middle (Intermediate Structure): H1 (Mid-scale candle)
Plot (Local Structure): 15m (The smallest nested high-timeframe candle)
• Nested Candle Design: Each high-timeframe candle is rendered as transparent boxes with specific body colors, encapsulating the lower-tier price action (OHLC) within it.
• Cyclical Refresh: Profile drawings reset automatically at the opening of every new Major timeframe candle. This ensures the analysis remains focused on the freshest institutional cycle.
🧠 Bias Algorithm & Decision Mechanism
To eliminate subjective interpretation, the algorithm operates on a purely mathematical logic based solely on Candle Closures (Close). It generates three distinct outcomes:
1. Reversal:
o Condition 1: A liquidity Sweep must occur at the HTF level.
o Condition 2 (SMT Confirmation): If no sweep is detected on the primary pair, the algorithm automatically scans correlated assets (e.g., checking GBPUSD or DXY for an EURUSD trade). An SMT Divergence in a correlated asset is accepted as institutional manipulation confirmation.
o Final Trigger: Once a CISD (Change in State of Delivery) occurs on the Lower Timeframe (LTF), the "Reversal" bias is confirmed.
2. Continuation: When a high-timeframe candle closes convincingly above/below the previous candle's High or Low, the algorithm reports that the current trend maintains its strength.
3. Indeterminate: In "non-delivery" zones where the market neither sweeps liquidity nor creates a structural break, the algorithm remains neutral to prevent overtrading.
🚨 Alert Center
The alert system is designed for high-confluence setups, ensuring you never miss a structural shift:
• Flexible TF Selection: You can manually toggle which of the 5 tracked timeframes (1M, 1W, 1D, etc.) should trigger notifications based on your strategy.
• "Any of Them" Function: When enabled, an instant notification is sent the moment a "Reversal" or "Continuation" signal forms on any of your selected timeframes.
• Directional Filtering: You can filter alerts to receive only "Bullish" or only "Bearish" setups, allowing you to align with your primary macro bias.
⚙️ Pro Tips for Usage
• Invalidation Lines: The dashed lines on the chart indicate the exact price level where the institutional bias is "invalidated." These serve as professional-grade stop-loss levels.
• B-ADJ Support: For Futures traders, back-adjustment settings are optimized within the code for seamless data transition.
• Manual Mode: If you wish to use custom timeframes not found in the standard sequence (e.g., 2-hour or 3-day charts), you can define them via the "Manuel" settings toggle.
• High-probability trade setups can be expected when there is multi-timeframe alignment in the same direction.
• Strategic Use Cases: The indicator is optimized for trading Distribution Phases within advanced frameworks. Whether you are looking for the C3 candle in the Universal Model or the Distribution (D) phase in an AMD (Power of 3) setup, this tool provides the necessary structural confirmation.
• User Discretion: Please note that this is a directional bias tool. While it identifies which direction is supported by multi-timeframe alignment, the final execution and entry management on lower timeframes are the user's responsibility.
• Always remember to seek additional confluence before executing a trade.
Chart Visual
Profile Visual
Example (SMT Usage) : On the chart, while the 10:00 H1 candle on GBPUSD sweeps its previous candle's liquidity, its correlated pair EURUSD does not show a sweep. If the "Use SMT for Bias" option is enabled, this SMT divergence with the correlated pair is accepted as a valid HTF Sweep. Upon the new candle open, once a 5m CISD confirmation occurs on EURUSD, the Bias Table will display "Bearish" for the H1/5m row.

Liquidity Sweep of Candle & Swing @MaxMaserati 3.0MMM Liquidity Sweep Detector for single candle sweep and/or Swing Sweep
Identify liquidity sweeps with precision. A sweep occurs when price wicks through a key level (previous candle high/low or swing point) but closes back inside the range - indicating a failed breakout and potential reversal.
The set includes: Sweep Low, 50% of wick, TGT level
KEY FEATURES:
- Two Detection Modes: Track sweeps on previous candle levels OR swing highs/lows (pivot points)
- Both Mode: View candle and swing sweeps simultaneously
- Visual Clarity: Each sweep displays three extending lines (SWH/SWL, Target, 50% wick), box zone, and swept level with red X marker
- Smart Updates: When price creates new sweep levels without hitting targets, the entire sweep structure automatically relocates to the new level
- Double-Sided Logic: When both sides are swept on one candle, the indicator intelligently places the sweep on the longest wick side
SWEEP DEFINITION:
Bullish Sweep: Price wicks BELOW a low but closes ABOVE it (back inside range)
Bearish Sweep: Price wicks ABOVE a high but closes BELOW it (back inside range)
The indicator only creates sweeps on unviolated levels - levels that haven't been closed through yet. This ensures you're trading genuine liquidity sweeps, not broken levels.
CUSTOMIZATION:
- Adjustable swing lookback period
- Multiple box placement options
- Full color and display controls
- Invalidation options (Sweep High/Low or 50% Wick)
- Statistics panel showing active sweeps and completion rates
Perfect for traders using ICT concepts, Smart Money Theory, or institutional order flow analysis. Identify where large players are hunting liquidity before reversing price.

Liquidity Trap Detector Pro [PyraTime]The Problem: Why You Get Stopped Out
90% of retail traders place their stop-losses at obvious swing highs and lows. Institutional algorithms ("Smart Money") are programmed to push price through these levels to trigger liquidity, fill their heavy orders, and then immediately reverse the market.
If you have ever had your stop hit right before the market moves exactly where you predicted—you were the victim of a Liquidity Trap.
The Solution: Visualizing the "Stop Hunt"
Liquidity Trap Detector Pro is not just a support/resistance indicator. It is a comprehensive Reversal Scoring Engine.
Unlike standard indicators that spam signals on every wick, this tool uses a proprietary 5-Star Scoring System to analyze the quality of the trap. It validates every signal using Wick Symmetry, RSI Divergence, and Volume Analysis to separate a true reversal from a trend continuation.
Key Features (USP)
- 5-Star Scoring Engine: Every signal is rated from 1 to 5 stars. Stop guessing if a signal is valid; let the algorithm check the confluence for you.
- Glassmorphism Visuals: Gone are the messy lines. We use modern, semi-transparent "Liquidity Zones" that keep your chart clean and professional.
- Smart Terminology: Automatically identifies Bull Traps (Buyers trapped at highs) and Bear Traps (Sellers trapped at lows).
- Heads-Up Display (HUD): A professional dashboard monitors the market state, active filters, and recent trap statistics in real-time.
- Strict Non-Repainting: (Technical Note) This script uses strict non-repainting logic. All Higher Timeframe (HTF) data is confirmed and closed before a signal is generated, ensuring historical accuracy.
---
Tutorial: How to Trade This Indicator
1. Understanding the Signals
We use correct institutional terminology to describe the market mechanics:
GREEN Signal (BEAR TRAP):
- What happened: Price swept a Swing Low, enticing sellers (Bears) to enter. The candle then reversed and closed back inside the range, trapping those sellers.
- The Trade: This is a Bullish Reversal setup (Long).
RED Signal (BULL TRAP):
- What happened: Price swept a Swing High, enticing buyers (Bulls) to breakout. The candle reversed and closed lower, trapping the buyers.
- The Trade: This is a Bearish Reversal setup (Short).
2. The 5-Star Scoring System
Not all traps are created equal. The stars tell you how much "Confluence" exists:
- 1 Star: A basic structure sweep. Risky.
- 3 Stars: A solid setup backed by either Volume or Divergence.
- 5 Stars: The "Perfect" Trap. Structure Sweep + RSI Divergence + Volume Spike + Wick Symmetry. High Probability.
3. The Strategy
- Wait for the Zone: Watch price approach a coloured Liquidity Zone.
- Observe the Reaction: Do not trade blindly. Wait for the candle to close.
- Check the Stars: Look for at least 3 Stars before considering an entry.
- Confirm with HUD: Glance at the Dashboard to ensure the "RSI Filter" and "Vol Filter" agree with your analysis.
---
Settings Guide
Structure Settings:
- Pivot Lookback: Adjusts how sensitive the zones are (Default: 10/5).
- HTF Confirmation: Optional filter to only show traps that align with Higher Timeframe structure (e.g., 1H or 4H).
Quality Filters:
- RSI Divergence: Requires momentum to disagree with price (classic reversal sign).
- Volume Spike: Requires volume to be higher than average (Smart Money footprint).
Visuals:
- Clean Mode: A presenter-favorite feature. Hides all historical zones and leaves only the active setup—perfect for taking screenshots or sharing analysis.

4H & Daily Previous Candle + Fibonacci + OTE# Multi-Timeframe OTE & Fibonacci Indicator (4H & Daily)
This Pine Script v5 indicator is designed for traders who utilize **Optimal Trade Entry (OTE)** zones and **Fibonacci retracements** based on higher timeframe market structures. It automatically identifies and plots key levels from the previous 4-hour and Daily candles to help find high-probability reversal zones.
## Key Features
### 1. Dual Timeframe OTE Zones
- **4H OTE Zone**: Automatically calculates and shades the Optimal Trade Entry area (default 61.8% - 78.6%) based on the previous 4-hour candle's range.
- **Daily OTE Zone**: Plots a secondary OTE zone based on the previous Daily candle, allowing for multi-timeframe confluence analysis.
- **Dynamic Adaptation**: The zones automatically flip based on whether the previous candle was bullish or bearish, ensuring you are always looking at the correct retracement levels.
### 2. Automated Market Structure
- **High/Low Tracking**: Plots clear horizontal lines for the previous 4H and Daily Highs and Lows.
- **Visual Distinction**: Daily levels are highlighted with thicker lines to distinguish them from 4H levels.
- **Price Labels**: Displays real-time price labels for all structural levels for quick reference.
### 3. Customizable Fibonacci Retracements
- **4H Fibonacci Levels**: Plots standard retracement levels (23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%) for the 4H timeframe.
- **Fully Adjustable**: Users can input custom Fibonacci levels via the settings menu.
### 4. Real-Time Information Dashboard
- **Range Summary**: A clean table in the top-right corner displays the total pip/point range for both the previous 4H and Daily candles.
- **Clean UI**: All visual elements (colors, line widths, labels) can be toggled or customized to fit any chart theme.
## How to Use
This indicator is ideal for "Smart Money" or "ICT" style trading. Look for **confluence** where the 4H OTE zone overlaps with the Daily OTE zone or other key structural levels to identify high-precision entry points.
CME Quarterly ShiftsCME Quarterly Shifts - Institutional Quarter Levels
Overview:
The CME Quarterly Shifts indicator tracks price action based on actual CME futures contract rollover dates, not calendar quarters. This indicator plots the Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC) for each quarter, with quarters defined by the third Friday of March, June, September, and December - the exact dates when CME quarterly futures contracts expire and roll over.
Why CME Contract Dates Matter:
Institutional traders, hedge funds, and large market participants typically structure their positions around futures contract expiration cycles. By tracking quarters based on CME rollover dates rather than calendar months, this indicator aligns with how major institutional players view quarterly timeframes and position their capital.
Key Features:
✓ Automatic CME contract rollover date calculation (3rd Friday of Mar/Jun/Sep/Dec)
✓ Displays Quarter Open, High, Low, and Close levels
✓ Vertical break lines marking the start of each new quarter
✓ Quarter labels (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4) for easy identification
✓ Adjustable history - show up to 20 previous quarters
✓ Fully customizable colors and line widths
✓ Works on any instrument and timeframe
✓ Toggle individual OHLC levels on/off
How to Use:
Quarter Open: The opening price when the new quarter begins (at CME rollover)
Quarter High: The highest price reached during the current quarter
Quarter Low: The lowest price reached during the current quarter
Quarter Close: The closing price from the previous quarter
These levels often act as key support/resistance zones as institutions reference them for quarterly performance, rebalancing, and position management.
Settings:
Display Options: Toggle quarterly break lines, OHLC levels, and labels
Max Quarters: Control how many historical quarters to display (1-20)
Colors: Customize colors for each level and break lines
Styles: Adjust line widths for OHLC levels and quarterly breaks
Best Practices:
Combine with other Smart Money Concepts (liquidity, order blocks, FVGs)
Watch for price reactions at quarterly Open levels
Monitor quarterly highs/lows as potential targets or stop levels
Use on higher timeframes (4H, Daily, Weekly) for clearer institutional perspective
Pairs well with monthly and yearly levels for multi-timeframe confluence
Perfect For:
ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology followers
Smart Money Concepts traders
Swing and position traders
Institutional-focused technical analysis
Traders tracking quarterly performance levels

Fair Value Gaps occur when price moves so aggressively that it leaves an "imbalance" or "gap" in the market structure. These zones often act as magnets where price returns to find liquidity.
**Detection Logic:**
- **Bullish FVG**: When current candle's low is above the high of the candle 2 bars ago
- **Bearish FVG**: When current candle's high is below the low of the candle 2 bars ago
- Requires strong impulse candle (configurable body percentage threshold)
- Color-coded zones: Green for bullish, Red for bearish
### 📦 Order Blocks (OB)
Order Blocks represent the last opposite candle before a significant price move - the zone where institutional orders were placed before the breakout.
**Detection Logic:**
- Identifies the last bearish candle before a strong bullish breakout (Bullish OB)
- Identifies the last bullish candle before a strong bearish breakout (Bearish OB)
- Validates breakout strength using ATR multiplier (1.2x default)
- Color-coded zones: Blue for bullish, Orange for bearish

## Intelligence Features
### 🧠 Zone Strength Rating
Every zone is automatically classified by strength based on size relative to ATR:
- **VERY STRONG** - 2.0x ATR or more (major institutional zones)
- **STRONG** - 1.5x to 2.0x ATR (significant zones)
- **MEDIUM** - 1.0x to 1.5x ATR (moderate zones)
- **WEAK** - Below 1.0x ATR (minor zones)
Strength rating helps you prioritize which zones to trade from!
### 📉 Smart Mitigation Tracking
Zones automatically track how much they've been "filled" or mitigated:
- Calculates penetration percentage as price enters the zone
- Zones turn **gray** when 50%+ mitigated or fully filled
- Option to **auto-delete** mitigated zones to keep chart clean
- Live zones extend dynamically with price action
### 🎨 Trend Filter (Optional)
When enabled, only shows zones aligned with the current trend:
- Uses customizable MA period (default 50)
- Bullish zones only appear in uptrend
- Bearish zones only appear in downtrend
- Reduces noise and false signals significantly
## Customization Options
### Display Settings
- Toggle FVGs and OBs independently
- Adjust max zones per type (5-200)
- Choose to remove or gray out mitigated zones
- Color customization for all zone types
### Detection Parameters
- **Min Impulse Body %**: Controls how strong the impulse candle must be (0.3-1.0)
- **Order Block Lookback**: How many bars to look back for OB validation (5-50)
- **ATR Length**: Period for ATR calculation (5-50)
### Trend Filter
- Enable/disable trend filtering
- Adjustable MA period for trend determination
### MTF Panel
- Show/hide the trend panel
- 4 position options: Top Right, Top Left, Bottom Right, Bottom Left
- 3 size options: Small, Normal, Large
- Customizable MA period for trend calculation across all timeframes
## Trading Applications
### 1. **Liquidity Grab Entries**
Wait for price to sweep a zone (50%+ mitigation) then enter on reversal. Smart money often "hunts" these zones before the real move begins.
### 2. **Confluence Trading**
Look for zones that align with:
- Multiple timeframe trends showing same direction
- Multiple FVGs/OBs stacking in same area
- Key support/resistance levels
### 3. **Breakout Confirmation**
Use Order Blocks to confirm the strength of breakouts. Strong OBs indicate institutional participation.
### 4. **Retracement Entries**
Enter when price returns to a fresh, unmitigated zone in the direction of the higher timeframe trend.
### 5. **Range Trading**
Identify FVG zones at range extremes - price often reverses at these inefficiencies.
## How It Works
**Fair Value Gaps** form when the middle candle creates such aggressive movement that it leaves a price gap between the high/low of surrounding candles. Institutional traders know these gaps get filled.
**Order Blocks** mark the origin of major moves. The last opposite-colored candle before a breakout is where large orders were placed. Price often returns to these zones for "retests" before continuing.
**Mitigation** happens when price returns to fill these zones. The indicator tracks this automatically, showing you which zones are still "fresh" and which have been used up.
## Best Practices
✅ **Use higher timeframe trends** - Always check the MTF panel before taking trades
✅ **Trade fresh zones** - Unmitigated zones (not gray) have the highest probability
✅ **Combine with price action** - Look for rejection wicks and engulfing candles at zones
✅ **Respect zone strength** - VERY STRONG and STRONG zones are most reliable
✅ **Use trend filter** - Especially on lower timeframes to reduce false signals
❌ **Don't overtrade** - Not every zone will react, wait for confirmation
❌ **Don't ignore context** - Check the MTF panel for conflicting trends
❌ **Don't chase** - Wait for price to come to the zone, don't enter mid-zone
## Technical Details
- **Non-repainting**: All zones are drawn on confirmed candles only
- **Performance optimized**: Uses efficient array management with per-type caps
- **Real-time updates**: Zones extend and track mitigation as price moves
- **Universal compatibility**: Works on all markets and timeframes
## Recommended Settings by Style
**Scalping (1m-5m charts):**
- Max zones: 10-15
- Use trend filter: ON
- MTF Panel: Focus on 1m-15m trends
- Remove mitigated: ON (keep chart clean)

Liquidity Sweeps [Kodexius]Liquidity Sweeps is a price action indicator built to visualize and react to common “stop run” behavior around recent swing highs and swing lows. It continuously detects pivot-based liquidity levels (recent resistance and support), extends them forward in time, and then classifies the interaction when price probes beyond a level but fails to hold through it.
The script focuses on two outcomes:
Buy-Side Liquidity Sweep (BSL): price takes liquidity above a recent swing high (high breaks above the level) but closes back at or below the level.
Sell-Side Liquidity Sweep (SSL): price takes liquidity below a recent swing low (low breaks below the level) but closes back at or above the level.
To support real trading workflows, it keeps charts readable by limiting active levels, offers clean styling options, and optionally filters sweep signals using relative volume (RVOL) so you can require participation before a sweep is considered valid.
🔹 Features
🔸 Pivot-Based Liquidity Level Detection (Swing Highs and Swing Lows)
The indicator uses a user-defined Pivot Length to identify confirmed swing points:
Pivot Highs become resistance liquidity levels (buy-side liquidity above highs).
Pivot Lows become support liquidity levels (sell-side liquidity below lows).
Each detected level is drawn as a horizontal line and automatically extended to the current bar until it is swept or broken.
🔸 Automatic Level Management (De-Cluttering)
To prevent chart overload, the script stores levels in internal arrays and enforces Maximum Active Levels:
When new levels are added and the limit is exceeded, the oldest level is removed.
This keeps only the most relevant, recent liquidity zones visible.
🔸 Clear Sweep Classification (BSL and SSL)
The sweep logic is intentionally strict and practical:
- BSL Sweep triggers when the bar’s high is above resistance but the close is back below or at resistance.
- SSL Sweep triggers when the bar’s low is below support but the close is back above or at support.
This models the “probe and reject” behavior typical of liquidity grabs.
🔸 Optional Volume Confirmation Using RVOL
When Enable Volume Filter is turned on, sweeps are only valid if the current bar’s volume is strong relative to the last 20 bars:
The script computes a 20-period volume average.
You can require volume to exceed the average by a chosen Volume Multiplier (example: 1.5 means 150% of the average).
If the filter is disabled, sweeps are evaluated purely on price conditions.
🔸 Sweep Labels and Level Highlighting
On a valid sweep:
A label is printed on the sweep bar:
- ▼ BSL for buy-side liquidity sweeps (yellow)
- ▲ SSL for sell-side liquidity sweeps (blue)
The swept level is highlighted by drawing an additional colored line over the swept range.
The script also prints the bar’s RVOL percentage near the midpoint of the swept line segment:
- BSL volume text is placed above the line midpoint
- SSL volume text is placed below the line midpoint
This makes it easy to see whether a sweep was low-effort or supported by strong participation.
🔸 Styling Controls
You can fully tailor the visual output:
Resistance and support line colors
Line style selection: Solid, Dotted, Dashed
Toggle sweep labels on or off
🔸 Alerts
The indicator exposes alert conditions for both sweep types and also fires explicit alert messages once per bar close when a sweep is confirmed:
- Buy Liquidity Sweep (BSL)
- Sell Liquidity Sweep (SSL)
🔹 Calculations
1) Pivot High / Pivot Low Detection
float ph = ta.pivothigh(high, pivotPeriodInput, pivotPeriodInput)
float pl = ta.pivotlow(low, pivotPeriodInput, pivotPeriodInput)
Interpretation:
A pivot is only confirmed after pivotPeriodInput bars have passed.
Once confirmed, the level is anchored at the pivot bar and then extended forward.
2) Creating and Storing Liquidity Levels
New Resistance (Pivot High):
if not na(ph)
line newL = line.new(bar_index , ph, bar_index, ph,
color = resistanceColorInput, width = 1, style = getLineStyle(lineStyleInput))
resistanceLevels.push(LiquidityLevel.new(ph, bar_index , newL))
if resistanceLevels.size() > maxLinesInput
(resistanceLevels.shift()).delete()
New Support (Pivot Low):
if not na(pl)
line newL = line.new(bar_index , pl, bar_index, pl,
color = supportColorInput, width = 1, style = getLineStyle(lineStyleInput))
supportLevels.push(LiquidityLevel.new(pl, bar_index , newL))
if supportLevels.size() > maxLinesInput
(supportLevels.shift()).delete()
This enforces the “Maximum Active Levels” limit by deleting the oldest stored level when the cap is exceeded.
3) Relative Volume (RVOL) and Volume Filter
float volAvg = ta.sma(volume, 20)
float volRelative = (volume / volAvg) * 100
bool isVolStrong = not useVolFilterInput or (volume > volAvg * volMultiplierInput)
volRelative expresses the sweep bar’s volume as a percentage of the last 20-bar average.
If the filter is enabled, a sweep is valid only when isVolStrong is true.
4) Sweep Conditions (Core Logic)
Buy-Side Liquidity Sweep (Resistance Sweep)
A resistance level is considered swept when price trades above it but closes back at or below it.
bool priceSwept = high > lvl.price and close <= lvl.price
bool broken = close > lvl.price
priceSwept captures the “probe and reject” behavior.
broken invalidates the level if price closes above it.
The confirmation and cleanup flow:
if priceSwept and isVolStrong
buySweepOccurred := true
if showLabelsInput
label.new(bar_index, high, "▼ BSL",
style = label.style_label_down, color = #00000000,
textcolor = C_SWEEP_BUY, size = size.small)
line.new(lvl.startBar, lvl.price, bar_index, lvl.price, color = C_SWEEP_BUY, width = 1)
int midX = math.round((lvl.startBar + bar_index) / 2)
label.new(midX, lvl.price, str.tostring(volRelative, "#") + "% VOL",
color = #00000000, textcolor = color.new(C_SWEEP_BUY, 20),
style = label.style_label_down, size = size.tiny)
resistanceLevels.remove(i).delete()
else if broken
resistanceLevels.remove(i).delete()
Sell-Side Liquidity Sweep (Support Sweep)
A support level is considered swept when price trades below it but closes back at or above it.
bool priceSwept = low < lvl.price and close >= lvl.price
bool broken = close < lvl.price
The confirmation and cleanup flow:
if priceSwept and isVolStrong
sellSweepOccurred := true
if showLabelsInput
label.new(bar_index, low, "▲ SSL",
style = label.style_label_up, color = #00000000,
textcolor = C_SWEEP_SELL, size = size.small)
line.new(lvl.startBar, lvl.price, bar_index, lvl.price, color = C_SWEEP_SELL, width = 1)
int midX = math.round((lvl.startBar + bar_index) / 2)
label.new(midX, lvl.price, str.tostring(volRelative, "#") + "% VOL",
color = #00000000, textcolor = color.new(C_SWEEP_SELL, 20),
style = label.style_label_up, size = size.tiny)
supportLevels.remove(i).delete()
else if broken
supportLevels.remove(i).delete()
5) Level Extension to Current Bar
method update(LiquidityLevel this) =>
line.set_x2(this.lineObj, bar_index)
This keeps each active liquidity level extended to the current candle until it is swept or decisively broken.
6) Alerts
alertcondition(buySweepOccurred, "Buy Liquidity Sweep", "BSL Swept!")
alertcondition(sellSweepOccurred, "Sell Liquidity Sweep", "SSL Swept!")
if buySweepOccurred
alert("Kodexius BSL Sweep: " + str.tostring(close), alert.freq_once_per_bar_close)
if sellSweepOccurred
alert("Kodexius SSL Sweep: " + str.tostring(close), alert.freq_once_per_bar_close)
Order Blocks & ImbalanceThis indicator automatically identifies and plots Order Blocks (also known as Fair Value Gaps or Imbalances) based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT methodology. It detects significant price inefficiencies (gaps between candles) that often act as institutional supply or demand zones.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
1. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
The indicator identifies classic 3-candle imbalances:
- Bullish Order Block (Demand): When the low of the current candle is significantly below the high of the candle two bars ago (low - high ).
- Bearish Order Block (Supply): When the high of the current candle is significantly above the low of the candle two bars ago (low - high ).
A minimum size threshold is enforced using ATR(14) × user-defined multiplier (default 0.5) to filter out minor gaps and focus on meaningful inefficiencies.
2. Zone Creation
- Bullish zones are created at the candle two bars ago (the "origin" candle where inefficiency occurred).
- Bearish zones use the same origin candle.
- Zone boundaries:
Top = high of origin candle
Bottom = low of origin candle
This captures the full range where price moved aggressively, leaving an imbalance that institutions may later revisit.
3. Mitigation Detection
Zones can be mitigated in two ways (user-selectable):
- "Close": Zone is considered touched only if the close price enters the zone.
- "Wick": Zone is touched if any wick (high/low) enters the zone (more sensitive).
When mitigated:
- Background becomes more transparent
- Border turns dotted
- Label changes to "Mitigated"
Broken zones (price fully closes beyond the opposite side) are automatically deleted.
4. Zone Lifecycle Management
- Active Zone: Strong color fill (green for demand, red for supply) with solid border.
- Mitigated Zone: Faded color, dotted border – indicates partial fill or reduced strength.
- Broken Zone: Automatically removed from chart to reduce clutter.
Old zones are also pruned when exceeding 450 total to maintain performance.
5. Smart Visibility Engine (Optional)
When enabled:
- All zones are initially hidden.
- Only the closest relevant zones are shown:
- Up to user-defined limit (default 10) highest bullish zones (closest below price)
- Up to user-defined limit (default 10) lowest bearish zones (closest above price)
- Visible zones are automatically extended to the right and styled appropriately.
This keeps the chart clean while highlighting the most actionable zones near current price.
6. Visual Elements
- Demand Zones: Green fill, labeled "OB Demand"
- Supply Zones: Red fill, labeled "OB Supply"
- Tiny text size to minimize chart clutter
- Zones drawn as boxes using bar_index positioning
How to Use
Order Blocks represent areas of price inefficiency where smart money likely entered/exited positions aggressively.
- Demand Zones (Green): Potential long entry areas when price returns. Expect buying pressure to defend these levels. Best setups when price retests an active (non-mitigated) zone.
- Supply Zones (Red): Potential short entry areas when price returns. Expect selling pressure to emerge.
- Mitigated Zones: Lower probability – may act as weaker support/resistance.
- Smart Visibility: Highly recommended for cleaner charts. Focuses attention on zones most likely to be tested soon.
- Combine with:
- Break of Structure (BOS)/Change of Character (CHOCH)
- Liquidity grabs
- Higher timeframe confluence
- Volume or momentum confirmation
Use higher FVG threshold (e.g., 0.8–1.0) for fewer, higher-quality zones. Lower threshold for more aggressive detection.
