(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.
Directional Targets & POC TableThe "Directional Targets & POC Table" Pine Script™ is a comprehensive tool designed to help traders identify directional bias, potential price targets, and important levels like the Point of Control (POC). Additionally, it detects fair value gaps (FVGs) and order blocks, which are crucial concepts in Smart Money Concepts (SMC) trading. Here's an overview of its functionality:
1. Indicator Overview:
The script combines multiple technical tools into a single visual aid:
Directional Targets: Fibonacci-based upper and lower targets that provide a forecast of where the price might move.
Point of Control (POC): Midpoint of the daily range, displayed visually on the chart.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs): Areas of imbalance in the market, potentially leading to price reversals.
Order Blocks: Areas where institutional traders might have entered large positions, potentially serving as support or resistance.
2. Key Features:
Directional Targets & POC Table:
A table is displayed in the top-right corner of the chart, showing:
Direction: Based on whether the price is above or below the POC.
Target ↑: The upper target, calculated using Fibonacci's 0.618 level, which acts as a potential resistance.
POC: The midpoint between the daily high and low, serving as the central level of interest.
Target ↓: The lower target, also calculated using the 0.618 Fibonacci level, which serves as potential support.
The table uses colors to make each level easily distinguishable, with green for bullish targets, red for bearish, and yellow for the POC.
POC Visualization:
The Point of Control (POC) is drawn on the chart as a box that stretches horizontally. It highlights the central price range where the highest volume or interest may have occurred, providing a key level for traders to watch.
The POC can act as a support or resistance area, with price frequently reacting at or near this level.
FVG Detection:
Fair Value Gaps are identified when there’s a price imbalance between two bars. These gaps occur when the high of one bar is lower than the low of a bar two periods earlier, or vice versa.
The script draws lines at the boundaries of these gaps, helping traders spot potential areas where the price may return to fill the gap.
If the price revisits and fills the gap, the FVG lines are automatically deleted, signaling the gap is no longer relevant.
Order Blocks Detection:
Bullish Order Blocks are detected when a strong bullish candle forms, where the close equals the high, and it’s higher than the previous bar’s low. This represents potential institutional buying interest.
Bearish Order Blocks are detected when a strong bearish candle forms, where the close equals the low, and it’s lower than the previous bar’s high, representing potential selling interest.
The order blocks are drawn as rectangles on the chart, marking significant price zones that may act as future support (bullish) or resistance (bearish).
3. Direction Determination:
The script calculates the daily high, low, and mid-point (POC). If the current price is above the POC, the market is deemed bullish; if it’s below, the market is bearish. If it’s near the POC, the market is considered neutral.
This directional bias is then displayed in the table, giving traders an easy way to assess whether they should be looking for long or short opportunities.
4. Use Case:
This script is particularly useful for traders who:
Want to identify key levels like the POC and potential price targets based on Fibonacci retracement.
Follow Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and need tools to detect FVGs and order blocks, which can signal areas of market imbalance or institutional involvement.
Need a simple visual aid to determine market direction and structure, helping them make informed trading decisions.
5. Additional Features:
The script is highly visual, providing both numeric information in a table and plotted elements (lines, boxes) directly on the chart.
The automatic detection and clearing of FVGs and order blocks make this tool dynamic and easy to follow.
The script helps identify areas where price might react, giving traders a roadmap to follow for potential entries, exits, or take-profit levels.
This indicator is designed for traders looking to incorporate both conventional and advanced concepts like Fibonacci targets, POC, and SMC principles (FVGs and Order Blocks) into their strategy.

📈 Structure
What Is IDM?
IDM, or the Institutional Distribution Model, is an advanced concept within SMC that focuses on how institutional players distribute their positions in the market. By analyzing IDM, traders can better anticipate price movements and potential turning points, thereby gaining a meaningful edge in their trading.
In our structure concept, IDM can form under specific conditions. The market does not always provide a high-liquidity point to work with, so we’ve adopted a flexible approach. We generate IDM when a certain type of liquidity appears during the impulse and BOS break, allowing for a potential future liquidity sweep.
Below, I will provide an example that illustrates when IDM forms as a liquidity magnet within the structure - and when it does not.
As shown in the example above, we focus on the initial impulse after the BOS. If liquidity forms during this impulse - liquidity that needs to be taken out during the structural move - we mark an IDM level as a price magnet. However, if this liquidity does not appear, we do not create an IDM. In that case, the same point might serve as an FVG or play a different role, depending on your trading approach.
This concept makes the structure more flexible and better able to respond immediately to market movements and key structural points.
Above is an example on the chart illustrating what the structure looks like both with and without IDM. As you can see, when the structural move includes pullbacks and consolidation, there is an opportunity to form an IDM as a price magnet. However, if the impulses are strong and lack pullbacks, FVG becomes the only magnet in that move. Depending on the chart, our indicator adapts to the current market conditions and highlights potential liquidity collection points.
📊 Swing and Minor Structure
In the new version of the indicator, the minor structure and the swing structure differ from each other.
Swing structure - In this structure, as mentioned earlier, the IDM concept remains a price magnet and is formed at certain points on the chart if the conditions allow. If these points do not appear, IDM might not form at all.
Minor structure - Here, we have completely removed IDM and only kept BOS and CHoCH for structure formation. We found that for a minor structure, this approach allows faster reactions to trend changes, depending on market movements.
By making these adjustments, we have resolved the main issue of the advanced structure, which was the large distance between BOS and CHoCH that sometimes resulted in a month-long consolidation between these levels. In this version, those problems no longer occur.
If, for some reason, your settings result in a larger swing structure, you can still work with the minor structure using the same POI as in the swing structure. OrderBlock and FVG remain the primary drivers of order flow.
Shown above is a screenshot of the main structure settings you can adjust. These settings are highly flexible and can be tailored to fit a wide range of trading preferences.
⚖️ FVG Concept
A new feature of our indicator is the FVG concept. We automatically detect three types of FVG at the moment, which will be explained below.
FVG - the standard Fair Value Gap
Double FVG - a double FVG, also referred to as BPR (Balanced Price Range)
Implied Imbalance - a type of imbalance that arises from buyer or seller demand
Below, we will look at examples of the FVG types we currently identify.
All price inefficiencies work in real time, immediately appearing on the chart and allowing traders to quickly respond to FVG reactions.
We have also enhanced this concept by displaying FVG reactions on the chart. If an FVG triggers a reaction and the price responds to that range, we highlight it on the chart, so you can recognize the reaction and make timely trading decisions. A screenshot below shows how this looks in practice.
Below is a screenshot illustrating the main settings of this concept, along with detailed descriptions.
📦 OrderBlock Concept
OrderBlocks provide an effective way to identify areas of interest and make informed decisions. We have dedicated significant effort to refining this section’s functionality and have achieved strong results in doing so.
Order Block Types
Advanced OrderBlock – A specialized type of order block generated by our internal algorithm. This can help traders aim for tighter entries and potentially more favorable risk-reward ratios within a narrow price range.
OrderBlock – The classic type, formed at the highs or lows of a structure when a BOS or CHoCH occurs. It can still be an effective entry method but typically spans a wider price range.
Extremum Candle – Based on liquidity grabs. The candle creating this order block must collect liquidity before making an impulsive move that breaks the BOS or CHoCH.
BTS / STB (Buy To Sell / Sell To Buy) – This concept may appear when market makers manipulate price to buy or sell an asset. It often covers a larger price range because it relies on a brief impulsive move to form.
Each type of order block has its own strengths and weaknesses. We provide traders with the flexibility to choose which types suit their trading style and preferences.
Above is an example of how you can apply OrderFlow alongside our structure and orderblocks, which can produce solid results when combined with the Smart Money concept.
In this demonstration, we have highlighted the Advanced Orderblock as an illustration.
Above is a screenshot of all the settings related to this section. They can be customized to suit your specific needs, ensuring you only see what is genuinely relevant on your chart.
📏 Previous Highs and Lows
You can select four levels to display on the chart as some of the most liquid zones:
Daily Highs and Lows
Weekly Highs and Lows
Monthly Highs and Lows
Quarterly Highs and Lows
This feature helps you identify important levels on lower timeframes and focus on these zones for potential trading opportunities. Below is an example of how it appears on the chart.
Below, you can see the settings available in this section.
📐 Fibonacci Levels
Likewise, a new section in our indicator is Fibonacci Levels, a well-known tool recognized as a reliable source of important levels on the chart. We have added this functionality with the option to choose how you want to generate these levels and which specific levels you want to display.
You can plot Fibonacci levels based on the Swing structure, Minor structure, previous or current day, month, and more. In total, there are 10 different options for constructing the Fibonacci grid.
Above, you can see an example of how it appears on the chart, and below you will find the settings available in this section.
🈹 Premium and Discount
Another useful feature for all traders is the Premium and Discount zones based on structure. This makes it easy to identify areas of interest—whether in a discount or premium zone, or in an equilibrium area.
Below, you can also see the settings available in this section.
✅ Additional Function
We have also separated a few functions into their own section:
Color Candles – Colors the candles according to the current trend.
Market Structure ZigZag – Visually highlights the zigzag used to form the structure.
Key Point Labels – Displays the points on the chart from which the structure is built.
Equal Highs & Lows – Identifies equal highs and lows as areas of potential liquidity for larger market players, as price often aims to sweep these zones.
Below are a few screenshots showing how these features appear on the chart.
Color Candles
Market Structure ZigZag and Key Point Labels
Equal Highs & Lows
Below, you can see a screenshot displaying all the settings available in this section.
🎨 General Styling
We have devoted considerable effort to providing flexible customization for each element on the chart, so you can design the exact look you want. That’s why we created an additional section where you can adjust any element’s size, style, and more.
Combined with extensive color and transparency options, this feature provides a flexible appearance for the indicator on any chart.
Below, you can see the settings available in this section
🔔 Alert Customization
You can configure over 16 types of reactions to various events on the chart. Additionally, you can set up alerts to trigger at specific fill levels and explore numerous other alert options, as shown in the screenshot below.
🟠 Usage Examples
We have also prepared several examples of how to use the indicator. These are standard entry models taken from the classic Smart Money concept.
First Example
In the screenshot above, the market displays a downward structure until a manipulation occurs, followed by a CHoCH break. This is a standard entry model featuring an entry at the nearest FVG, a stop-loss placed beyond the manipulation, and a target at the nearest liquidity zone—whether session-based or, as in our case, a gap (one of the FVG types) that price commonly revisits.
This is considered a more aggressive entry because we only waited for a single confirmation of the trend change—the CHoCH break—and then entered immediately afterward. While the WinRate might be lower in such trades, the Risk-Reward ratio is typically very high if you correctly identify the manipulation.
Second Example
This approach is more conservative and less risky, typically offering a higher WinRate but with a lower Risk-Reward ratio.
Here, we use the 4H FVG as our decision point (POI). With the indicator, we plot the 4-hour FVG on our current chart without needing to switch back and forth between timeframes.
Once price reaches our POI, we look for an entry model that includes three confirmations:
First Confirmation – A CHoCH break.
Second Confirmation – A manipulation.
Third Confirmation – A second BOS break.
We wait for all these confirmations before entering the trade, ensuring our stop-loss is well-protected since the remaining liquidity has been swept and the 4-hour FVG has been fully filled.
Our target is the full fill of a higher timeframe FVG or other high-liquidity levels below.
In a conservative setup, it is crucial to allow a complete OrderFlow to develop, including manipulations and clear breaks of lower levels. This approach helps protect the trade and often results in a higher WinRate.
🟠 Disclaimer
Past performance is not indicative of future results. To trade successfully, it is crucial to have a thorough understanding of the market context and the specific situation at hand. Always conduct your own research and analysis before making any trading decisions.

itradesize /\ Previous HTF x OHLC Box
FYI: It is an invite-only script, if you are interested in, please scroll down to see the Author's instructions.
Introducing an indicator which inspired by ICT concepts that use a model, based on what TTrades teaches in some of his DOL videos about how to get a proper bias.
Having a daily bias can be frustrating and this script could make it easy for you besides creating a ton of opportunities for scalpers as well as not only helpful for a daily bias, it can also help you to determine the actual H4 or H1 bias or even lower.
Always keep in mind: the higher the timeframe you use, the more accurate it can be.
You can use OHLC to determine the current or higher time frame bias as it can be used on any of them and properly gain a sentiment of a drawn of liquidity.
This model integrates the previous candle's open, high, low, and close values (or open, low, high close) in addition to their equilibrium to make it easier to identify where the price should go moreover they can be used as reference points for potential trading opportunities.
The 50% also known as equilibrium creates premium and discount zones within the previous candles. Using the former higher timeframe candle’s OHLC you can simply have an external range of liquidity and where the current price should it drawn to.
With this tool, you can achieve a proper trading framework as you can easily recognize the external & internal range of liquidity, so whether you are a scalper or a day trader you are able to rely on the indicator.
A bit of a candlestick analysis:
When the price wicks below means a potential bullish reversal is incoming.
When the price wicks above, then it means a potential bearish reversal is happening.
Closing below means lower prices. (Bearish trend)
Closing above means higher prices. (Bullish trend)
This indicator is an absolute monster for the OHLC guys.
How to use it?
- Analyse the trend on the higher timeframe, bullish trend is when the price continuously takes the previous candle’s high over and over again. Bearish trend is the total opposite.
- Wait for external liquidity to be taken.
- When it's happening there should be a displacement back to the range with an actual structure shift.
- Looking for an imbalance in the displacement.
- Aiming for an imbalance that is above 50% of the former move.
- Aggressive stop: below or above the candle which has an imbalance
- Conservative stop: below or above the former swing
Classic sell setup:
Classic buy setup:
The indicator has a ton of customizable features, the power of the tool is really in there, as you can find or refine your own model with it. Once you're familiar with your setup you will be really feeling the power of the tool, I promise.

HTF Power of Three° [Pro+] by toodegreesDescription:
Power of Three ( PO3 ) is one of the many concepts introduced by the Inner Circle Trader , and inspired by Larry Williams .
The PO3 represents a three staged Smart Money campaign: Accumulation , Manipulation , and Distribution ( AMD ).
This tool helps to build narrative, as well as spotting important institutional levels.
ICT traders assume that this pattern represents how any candle is built.
“ This is applicable to every time measurement, as long as you have a beginning time, the highest value, the lowest value, and an ending in terms of measuring time. ”
Consider the development of a Bullish Candle over Time:
– Candle Open (initial value price, prior to dynamic imbalance)
– Accumulation of longs around the opening price
– Manipulation where short liquidity is engineered and long liquidity is neutralized
– Range Expansion (dynamic price imbalance)
– Distribution pairing long exits with pending buy interest
– Candle Close (ending value price, post dynamic imbalance)
The same goes for the development of Bearish Candles, in reverse.
Indicator Features:

Trend Shift Histogram By Clarity ChartsTrend Shift Histogram – A Brand New Formula by Clarity Charts
The Trend Shift Histogram is a brand-new mathematical formula designed to capture market momentum shifts with exceptional clarity.
Unlike traditional histograms, this indicator focuses on detecting early changes in market direction by analyzing underlying trend strength and momentum imbalances.
Key Features:
New Formula – Built from scratch to highlight momentum reversals and hidden trend shifts.
Visual Clarity – Green and red histogram bars make it easy to identify bullish and bearish phases, and grey area as trend reversal or sideways zone.
Trend Detection – Helps traders spot when the market is about to shift direction, often before price reacts strongly.
Scalable Settings –
Use smaller lengths for scalping and short-term trades.
Use larger lengths for swing trading and longer trend analysis.
Every Timeframe Ready – Whether you’re scalping on 1m or analyzing weekly charts, the histogram adapts seamlessly.
Power of Combining with the Fear Index
The Trend Shift Histogram becomes even more powerful when combined with Fear Index by Clarity Charts :
Fear Index by Clarity Charts
Together:
Fear Index highlights market fear & exhaustion levels, showing when traders are capitulating.
Trend Shift Histogram confirms the direction of the new trend once fear has peaked.
How to Use:
📈 Long Entry Condition
A long position is triggered when the following conditions align:
The Fear Index Bulls are showing upward momentum, indicating strengthening bullish sentiment.
The Fear Index Bears are simultaneously declining, signaling weakening bearish pressure.
The Trend Shift Histogram transitions from a short bias to a long bias, confirming a structural shift in market direction.
When all three conditions occur together, it provides a strong confluence to initiate a long trade entry.
📉 Short Entry Condition
A short position is triggered when the opposite conditions align:
The Fear Index Bears are showing upward momentum, indicating strengthening bearish sentiment.
The Fear Index Bulls are simultaneously declining, signaling weakening bullish pressure.
The Trend Shift Histogram transitions from a long bias to a short bias, confirming a structural shift in market direction.
When all three conditions occur together, it provides a strong confluence to initiate a short trade entry.
🔄 Bullish Trend Cycle
During a bullish phase as per the Fear Index, you can capture the entire cycle by:
Entry: Taking entries when the Trend Shift Histogram begins printing green bars, which mark the start of a bullish trend shift.
Exit: Closing the position when the histogram transitions to grey bars, signaling exhaustion or a potential pause in the bullish cycle.
This approach allows you to ride the bullish momentum effectively while respecting market cycle shifts.
🔻 Bearish Trend Cycle
During a bearish phase as per the Fear Index, you can capture the entire cycle by:
Entry: Taking entries when the Trend Shift Histogram begins printing red bars, which mark the start of a bearish trend shift.
Exit: Closing the position when the histogram transitions to grey bars, signaling exhaustion or a potential pause in the bearish cycle.
This approach ensures that bearish trends are traded with precision, avoiding late entries and capturing maximum move potential.
Watch for histogram color changes (green = bullish, red = bearish, grey = sideways).
Adjust length settings based on your style:
Small = intraday & scalping precision.
Large = swing & positional confidence.
Combine signals with Fear Index peaks for high-probability reversal zones.
Apply across any timeframe for flexible strategy building.
Who Can Use This
Scalpers – Catch quick intraday shifts.
Swing Traders – Ride bigger moves with confidence.
Long-Term Investors – Spot early warning signs of market trend reversals.

It combines advanced pattern recognition with essential trading concepts to give you a unique analytical edge.
Key Features
The Predictive Engine (The Crystal Ball)
This is the core of the indicator. It doesn't just identify market structure; it predicts it.
Know the Odds: Get a real-time probability score (%) for the next structural point: Higher High (HH), Higher Low (HL), Lower Low (LL), or Lower High (LH).
Advanced Analysis: The engine considers the pattern sequence, the speed (velocity) of the move, and its size to find the most accurate historical matches.
Dynamic Learning: The indicator constantly updates its analysis as new price data comes in.
The All-in-One Dashboard
Your command center for at-a-glance information. No need to clutter your screen!
Market Phase: Instantly know if the market is in a "🚀 Strong Uptrend," "📉 Steady Downtrend," or "↔️ Consolidation."
Live Probabilities: See the updated forecasts for HH, HL, LL, and LH in a clean, easy-to-read format.
Confidence Level: The dashboard tells you how confident the algorithm is in its current prediction (Low, Medium, or High).
🎯 Dynamic Prediction Zones
Turn probabilities into actionable price areas.
Visual Targets: Based on the highest probability outcome, the indicator draws a target zone on your chart where the next structure point is likely to form.
Context-Aware: These zones are calculated using recent volatility and average swing sizes, making them adaptive to the current market conditions.
🔍 Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detector
Automatically identify and track key price imbalances.
Price Magnets: FVGs are automatically detected and drawn, acting as potential targets for price.
Smart Tracking: The indicator tracks the status of each FVG (Fresh, Partially Filled, or Filled) and uses this data to refine its predictions.
🌍 Trading Session Analysis
Never lose track of key session levels again.
Visualize Sessions: See the Asia, London, and New York sessions highlighted with colored backgrounds.
Key Levels: Automatically plots the high and low of each session, which are often critical support and resistance levels.
Breakout Alerts: Get notified when price breaks a session high or low.
📈 Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Context
Understand the bigger picture by integrating higher timeframe analysis directly onto your chart.
BOS & MSS: Automatically identifies Breaks of Structure (trend continuation) and Market Structure Shifts (potential reversals) from up to two higher timeframes.
Trade with the Trend: Align your intraday trades with the dominant trend for higher probability setups.
⚙️ How It Works in Simple Terms
1️⃣ It Learns: The indicator first identifies all the past swing points (HH, HL, LL, LH) and analyzes their characteristics (speed, size, etc.).
2️⃣ It Finds a Match: It looks at the most recent price action and searches through hundreds of historical bars to find moments that were almost identical.
3️⃣ It Analyzes the Outcome: It checks what happened next in those similar historical scenarios.
4️⃣ It Predicts: Based on that historical data, it calculates the probability of each potential outcome and presents it to you.
🚀 How to Use This Indicator in Your Trading
Confirmation Tool: Use a high probability score (e.g., >60% for a HH) to confirm your own bullish analysis before entering a trade.
Finding High-Probability Zones: Use the Prediction Zones as potential areas to take profit, or as reversal zones to watch for entries in the opposite direction.
Gauging Market Sentiment: Check the "Market Phase" on the dashboard. Avoid forcing trades when the indicator shows "😴 Low Volatility."
Confluence is Key: This indicator is incredibly powerful when combined with your existing strategy. Use it alongside supply/demand zones, moving averages, or RSI for ultimate confirmation.
We hope this tool gives you a powerful new perspective on the market. Dive into the settings to customize it to your liking!

Disclaimer: All predictions are probabilistic and based on historical data. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use proper risk management.
Trapped Traders [ScorsoneEnterprises]This indicator identifies and visualizes trapped traders - market participants caught on the wrong side of price movements with significant volume imbalances. By analyzing volume delta at specific price levels, it reveals where traders are likely experiencing unrealized losses and may be forced to exit their positions.
The point of this tool is to identify where the liquidity in a trend may be.
var lowerTimeframe = switch
useCustomTimeframeInput => lowerTimeframeInput
timeframe.isseconds => "1S"
timeframe.isintraday => "1"
timeframe.isdaily => "5"
=> "60"
= ta.requestVolumeDelta(lowerTimeframe)
price_quantity = map.new()
is_red_candle = close < open
is_green_candle = close > open
for i=0 to lkb-1 by 1
current_vol = price_quantity.get(close)
new_vol = na(current_vol) ? lastVolume : current_vol + lastVolume
price_quantity.put(close, new_vol)
if is_green_candle and new_vol < 0
price_quantity.put(close, new_vol)
else if is_red_candle and new_vol > 0
price_quantity.put(close, new_vol)
We see in this snippet, the lastVolume variable is the most recent volume delta we can receive from the lower timeframe, we keep updating the price level we're keeping track of with that lastVolume from the lower timeframe.
This is the bulk of the concept as this level and size gives us the idea of how many traders were on the wrong side of the trend, and acting as liquidity for the profitable entries. The more, the stronger.
There are 3 ways to visualize this. A basic label, that will display the size and if positive or negative next to the bar, a gradient line that goes 10 bars to the future to be used as a support or resistance line that includes the quantity, and a bubble chart with the quantity. The larger the quantity, the bigger the bubble.
We see in this example on NYMEX:CL1! that there are lines plotted throughout this price action that price interacts with in meaningful way. There are consistently many levels for us.
Here on CME_MINI:ES1! we see the labels on the chart, and the size set to large. It is the same concept just another way to view it.
This chart of CME_MINI:RTY1! shows the bubble chart visualization. It is a way to view it that is pretty non invasive on the chart.
Every timeframe is supported including daily, weekly, and monthly.
The included settings are the display style, like mentioned above. If the user would like to see the volume numbers on the chart. The text size along with the transparency percentage. Following that is the settings for which lower timeframe to calculate the volume delta on. Finally, if you would like to see your inputs in the status line.
No indicator is 100% accurate, use "Trapped Traders" along with your own discretion.
Volume Profile Grid [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated volume distribution analysis system that transforms market activity into institutional-grade visual profiles, revealing hidden support/resistance zones and market participant behavior. Utilizing advanced price level segmentation, bullish/bearish volume separation, and dynamic range analysis, the Volume Profile Grid delivers comprehensive market structure insights with Point of Control (POC) identification, Value Area boundaries, and volume delta analysis. The system features intelligent visualization modes, real-time sentiment analysis, and flexible range selection to provide traders with clear, actionable volume-based market context.
🔶 Dynamic Range Analysis Engine
Implements dual-mode range selection with visible chart analysis and fixed period lookback, automatically adjusting to current market view or analyzing specified historical periods. The system intelligently calculates optimal bar counts while maintaining performance through configurable maximum limits, ensuring responsive profile generation across all timeframes with institutional-grade precision.
// Dynamic period calculation with intelligent caching
get_analysis_period() =>
if i_use_visible_range
chart_start_time = chart.left_visible_bar_time
current_time = last_bar_time
time_span = current_time - chart_start_time
tf_seconds = timeframe.in_seconds()
estimated_bars = time_span / (tf_seconds * 1000)
range_bars = math.floor(estimated_bars)
final_bars = math.min(range_bars, i_max_visible_bars)
math.max(final_bars, 50) // Minimum threshold
else
math.max(i_periods, 50)
🔶 Advanced Bull/Bear Volume Separation
Employs sophisticated candle classification algorithms to separate bullish and bearish volume at each price level, with weighted distribution based on bar intersection ratios. The system analyzes open/close relationships to determine volume direction, applying proportional allocation for doji patterns and ensuring accurate representation of buying versus selling pressure across the entire price spectrum.
🔶 Multi-Mode Volume Visualization
Features three distinct display modes for bull/bear volume representation: Split mode creates mirrored profiles from a central axis, Side by Side mode displays sequential bull/bear segments, and Stacked mode separates volumes vertically. Each mode offers unique insights into market participant behavior with customizable width, thickness, and color parameters for optimal visual clarity.
// Bull/Bear volume calculation with weighted distribution
for bar_offset = 0 to actual_periods - 1
bar_high = high
bar_low = low
bar_volume = volume
// Calculate intersection weight
weight = math.min(bar_high, next_level) - math.max(bar_low, current_level)
weight := weight / (bar_high - bar_low)
weighted_volume = bar_volume * weight
// Classify volume direction
if bar_close > bar_open
level_bull_volume += weighted_volume
else if bar_close < bar_open
level_bear_volume += weighted_volume
else // Doji handling
level_bull_volume += weighted_volume * 0.5
level_bear_volume += weighted_volume * 0.5
🔶 Point of Control & Value Area Detection
Implements institutional-standard POC identification by locating the price level with maximum volume accumulation, providing critical support/resistance zones. The Value Area calculation uses sophisticated sorting algorithms to identify the price range containing 70% of trading volume, revealing the market's accepted value zone where institutional participants concentrate their activity.
🔶 Volume Delta Analysis System
Incorporates real-time volume delta calculation with configurable dominance thresholds to identify significant bull/bear imbalances. The system visually highlights price levels where buying or selling pressure exceeds threshold percentages, providing immediate insight into directional volume flow and potential reversal zones through color-coded delta indicators.
// Value Area calculation using 70% volume accumulation
total_volume_sum = array.sum(total_volumes)
target_volume = total_volume_sum * 0.70
// Sort volumes to find highest activity zones
for i = 0 to array.size(sorted_volumes) - 2
for j = i + 1 to array.size(sorted_volumes) - 1
if array.get(sorted_volumes, j) > array.get(sorted_volumes, i)
// Swap and track indices for value area boundaries
// Accumulate until 70% threshold reached
for i = 0 to array.size(sorted_indices) - 1
accumulated_volume += vol
array.push(va_levels, array.get(volume_levels, idx))
if accumulated_volume >= target_volume
break
❓How It Works
🔶 Weighted Volume Distribution
Implements proportional volume allocation based on the percentage of each bar that intersects with price levels. When a bar spans multiple levels, volume is distributed proportionally based on the intersection ratio, ensuring precise representation of trading activity across the entire price spectrum without double-counting or volume loss.
🔶 Real-Time Profile Generation
Profiles regenerate on each bar close when in visible range mode, automatically adapting to chart zoom and scroll actions. The system maintains optimal performance through intelligent caching mechanisms and selective line updates, ensuring smooth operation even with maximum resolution settings and extended analysis periods.
🔶 Market Sentiment Analysis
Features comprehensive volume analysis table displaying total volume metrics, bullish/bearish percentages, and overall market sentiment classification. The system calculates volume dominance ratios in real-time, providing immediate insight into whether buyers or sellers control the current price structure with percentage-based sentiment thresholds.
🔶 Visual Profile Mapping
Provides multi-layered visual feedback through colored volume bars, POC line highlighting, Value Area boundaries, and optional delta indicators. The system supports profile mirroring for alternative perspectives, line extension for future reference, and customizable label positioning with detailed price information at critical levels.
Why Choose Volume Profile Grid
The Volume Profile Grid represents the evolution of volume analysis tools, combining traditional volume profile concepts with modern visualization techniques and intelligent analysis algorithms. By integrating dynamic range selection, sophisticated bull/bear separation, and multi-mode visualization with POC/Value Area detection, it provides traders with institutional-quality market structure analysis that adapts to any trading style. The comprehensive delta analysis and sentiment monitoring system eliminates guesswork while the flexible visualization options ensure optimal clarity across all market conditions, making it an essential tool for traders seeking to understand true market dynamics through volume-based price discovery.
Smart Money Breakout Moving Strength [GILDEX]🟠OVERVIEW
This script draws breakout detection zones called “Smart Money Breakout Channels” based on volatility-normalized price movement and visualizes them as dynamic boxes with volume overlays. It identifies temporary accumulation or distribution ranges using a custom normalized volatility metric and tracks when price breaks out of those zones—either upward or downward. Each channel represents a structured range where smart money may be active, helping traders anticipate key breakouts with added context from volume delta, up/down volume, and a visual gradient gauge for momentum bias.
🟠CONCEPTS
The script calculates normalized price volatility by measuring the standard deviation of price mapped to a scale using the highest and lowest prices over a set lookback period. When normalized volatility reaches a local low and flips upward, a boxed channel is drawn between the highest and lowest prices in that zone. These boxes persist until price breaks out, either with a strong candle close (configurable) or by touching the boundary. Volume analysis enhances interpretation by rendering delta bars inside the box, showing volume distribution during the channel. Additionally, a real-time visual “gauge” shows where volume delta sits within the channel range, helping users spot pressure imbalances.

Highest High & Lowest Low Extreme Range @MaxMaserati Highest High & Lowest Low @MaxMaserati
════════════════════════════════════════════
Every day, retail traders stare at charts wondering where the real support and resistance levels are, while institutions effortlessly identify the exact range boundaries that control price action. The mystery of institutional range identification has finally been solved with a revolutionary approach that transforms chaotic price movements into crystal-clear trading opportunities.
⚡ CORE INNOVATION
Range Boundary Detection System
This groundbreaking indicator automatically identifies the highest high and lowest low over your specified lookback period, creating an institutional-grade range box that reveals exactly where smart money expects price to respect key levels. No more guessing where the real boundaries are.
Smart Market Intelligence
The system automatically detects your market type and displays range measurements in the proper units - pips for forex, points for futures and indices, dollars for stocks. This precision eliminates confusion and provides instant context for your trading decisions.
Institutional Midline Precision
The 50% retracement level is automatically calculated and displayed as a dotted midline within the range box, revealing the exact equilibrium point where institutional algorithms expect price to find balance. This is where the smart money often makes their move.
Visual Clarity System
Clean pink range boxes with black labels eliminate chart clutter while highlighting only the most critical levels. The minimalist design ensures you focus on what matters most - the institutional range boundaries that drive price action.
Tips
**Look when the market break a swing, wait for pullback at the 50 level or at the order block where the movement started for entry.
**When the market is trending, it tends to stick to the line creating constant lower low or high highs
⚡ PRECISION TRADING SYSTEM
Phase 1: Range Identification
The indicator scans your chosen lookback period and identifies the absolute highest and lowest points, creating an institutional range box that represents the current market structure. This becomes your primary reference framework for all trading decisions.
Phase 2: Midline Analysis
Monitor price action around the 50% midline level. Institutions often use this equilibrium point for entries, exits, and position sizing decisions. When price approaches this level, heightened attention is required.
Phase 3: Boundary Respect Confirmation
Watch how price reacts at the range boundaries. Strong rejections indicate institutional support or resistance, while clean breaks suggest range expansion and potential trend continuation opportunities.
Phase 4: Range-Based Position Management
Use the range measurements to calculate proper position sizes and risk-reward ratios. The automatic unit conversion ensures precise risk management regardless of your trading instrument.
⚡ UNIVERSAL INTEGRATION
This indicator enhances every trading methodology without replacing your existing strategy. ICT traders use it to identify premium and discount ranges. SMC analysts leverage it for market structure confirmation. Supply and demand traders utilize it for zone validation. Fibonacci enthusiasts find the 50% midline invaluable for retracement analysis.
The beauty lies in its simplicity - it works flawlessly across all timeframes, from scalping on the 1-minute chart to position trading on the weekly. Every market respects these institutional range boundaries because they represent genuine supply and demand imbalances.
⚡ INSTITUTIONAL RANGE MASTERY
Market statistics reveal that 78% of significant price moves originate from range boundary interactions. While retail traders chase breakouts without context, institutions patiently wait for price to reach these predetermined levels before deploying their capital.
Training Your Market Vision
This indicator rewires your brain to see markets the way institutions do - as ranges with clear boundaries and equilibrium points rather than chaotic price movements. After consistent use, you'll naturally identify these levels even without the indicator, giving you a permanent edge in market analysis.
The institutional advantage becomes clear when you realize that these range boundaries often align with key psychological levels, previous day highs and lows, and algorithmic trading zones. This convergence creates powerful reversal and continuation signals that smart money exploits repeatedly.
Do not use it as a standalone indicator, backtest it and learn about swings before using it.

Smart Money Breakout Channels [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script draws breakout detection zones called “Smart Money Breakout Channels” based on volatility-normalized price movement and visualizes them as dynamic boxes with volume overlays. It identifies temporary accumulation or distribution ranges using a custom normalized volatility metric and tracks when price breaks out of those zones—either upward or downward. Each channel represents a structured range where smart money may be active, helping traders anticipate key breakouts with added context from volume delta, up/down volume, and a visual gradient gauge for momentum bias.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The script calculates normalized price volatility by measuring the standard deviation of price mapped to a scale using the highest and lowest prices over a set lookback period. When normalized volatility reaches a local low and flips upward, a boxed channel is drawn between the highest and lowest prices in that zone. These boxes persist until price breaks out, either with a strong candle close (configurable) or by touching the boundary. Volume analysis enhances interpretation by rendering delta bars inside the box, showing volume distribution during the channel. Additionally, a real-time visual “gauge” shows where volume delta sits within the channel range, helping users spot pressure imbalances.
🟠 FEATURES
Automatic detection and drawing of breakout channels based on volatility-normalized price pivots.
Optional nested channels to allow multiple simultaneous zones or a clean single-zone view.
Gradient-filled volume gauge with dynamic pointer to show current delta pressure within the box.
Three volume visualization modes: raw volume, comparative up/down volume, and delta.
Alerts for new channel creation and confirmed bullish or bearish breakouts.
🟠 USAGE
Apply the indicator to any chart. Wait for a new breakout box to form—this occurs when volatility behavior shifts and a stable range emerges. Once a box appears, monitor price relative to its boundaries. A breakout above suggests bullish continuation, below suggests bearish continuation; signals are stronger when “Strong Closes Only” is enabled.
Watch the internal volume candles to understand where buy/sell pressure is concentrated during the box. Use the gauge on the right to interpret whether net pressure is building upward or downward before breakout to anticipate the direction.
Use alerts to catch breakout events without needing to monitor the chart constantly 🚨.
Chaithanya Tattva Volume Zones📜 "Chaitanya Tattva" Volume Zones:-
A Sacred Framework of Supply, Demand & Market Energy
In the world of financial markets, price is said to reflect all information. But the true pulse of the market — its life force, its intent, and its moment of truth — is most vividly expressed not in price itself, but in volume.
Chaitanya Tattva Volume Zones is a spiritually inspired volume-based tool that transforms your chart into a canvas of market consciousness, revealing moments where supply and demand engage in visible energetic spikes. These moments are often disguised as ordinary candles, but with this tool, you uncover zones of intent — footprints left by the market’s deeper intelligence.
🌟 Why “Chaitanya Tattva”?
Chaitanya (चैतन्य) is a Sanskrit word meaning consciousness, awareness, or the spark of life energy. It is that which animates — the subtle intelligence behind all movement.
Tattva (तत्त्व) refers to essence, truth, or the underlying principle of a thing. In classical yogic philosophy, the tattvas are the elemental building blocks of reality.
Together, Chaitanya Tattva represents the conscious essence — the living pulse that animates the market through volume surges and imbalances.
This tool is not just a technical indicator — it is a spiritual observation device that aligns with the rhythm of volume and price action. It doesn't predict the market. It reveals when the market has already spoken — loudly, clearly, and energetically.
📈 What Does the Tool Do?
Chaitanya Tattva Volume Zones identifies exceptional volume spikes within the recent price history and visually marks the areas where market intent has been most active.
Specifically, the tool:
Scans for volume spikes that exceed all the volume of the last N bars (default is 20)
Confirms whether the spike happened on a bullish candle (close > open) or bearish candle (close < open)
For a bullish spike, it marks a Supply Zone — the area between the high and close of the candle
For a bearish spike, it marks a Demand Zone — the area between the low and close
Visually paints these zones with soft translucent boxes (red for supply, green for demand) that extend forward across multiple bars
🧘♂️ The Spiritual Framework
🔴 Supply = "Agni" — The Fire of Expansion
When a bullish candle erupts with historically high volume, it symbolizes the fire (Agni) of market optimism and upward expansion. It means that buyers have absorbed available supply at that level and established dominance — but such fire may also signal exhaustion, making it a potential supply barrier if price returns.
These Supply Zones are areas where:
Sellers are likely to re-engage
Smart money may be unloading
Future resistance can be anticipated
But unlike traditional indicators, this tool doesn’t guess. It reacts only to a clear volume-based event — when market energy surges — and locks in that awareness through zone marking.
🟢 Demand = "Prithvi" — The Grounding of Price
On the other hand, a bearish candle with extremely high volume represents the Earth (Prithvi) — grounding the price with firm hands. A strong volume drop often means buyers are stepping in, absorbing the selling pressure.
These Demand Zones are areas where:
Buying interest is proven
Market memory is stored
Future support can be expected
By respecting these zones, you're aligning your trading with natural market boundaries — not theoretical ones.
🧠 How Is It Different from Regular Volume Tools?
While most volume indicators show bars on a lower panel, they leave interpretation up to the trader. “High” or “low” becomes subjective.
Chaitanya Tattva Volume Zones is different:
It quantifies "spike": a bar must exceed all previous N volumes
It qualifies the intent: was the spike bullish or bearish?
It marks zones on the price chart: no need to guess levels
It preserves market memory: the zones persist visually for easy reference
In essence, this tool doesn’t just report volume — it interprets volume’s context and visually encodes it into the chart.
🧘 How to Use
1. Support/Resistance Mapping
Use the tool to understand where volume proved itself. If price revisits a red zone, expect possible rejection (resistance). If price revisits a green zone, expect possible absorption (support).
2. Entry Triggers
You may enter:
Long near demand zones if bullish confirmation appears
Short near supply zones if bearish confirmation appears
3. Stop Placement
Stops can be placed just beyond the zone boundary to align with areas where smart money historically defended.
4. Breakout Confidence
When price breaks through one of these zones with momentum, it often signals a new energetic wave — the old balance has been overcome.
🔔 Key Features
Volume spike detection across any timeframe
Clear visual zones — no clutter, no lag
Highly customizable: zone width, volume lookback, colors
Philosophy-aligned with supply and demand theory, Wyckoff, and Order Flow
🌌 A Metaphysical View of Volume
In yogic science, volume is akin to Prana — life-force energy. A market is not moved by price alone but by intent, force, and participation — all encoded in volume.
Just as a human body pulses with blood when action intensifies, the market pulses with volume when institutional decisions are made.
These pulses become sacred footprints — and Chaitanya Tattva Volume Zones helps you walk mindfully among them.
🔮 Final Thoughts
In a sea of indicators that shout at you with every tick, Chaitanya Tattva is calm. It speaks only when energy concentrates, only when the market sends a signal born of intent.
It doesn’t predict.
It doesn’t repaint.
It simply shows the truth, when the truth becomes undeniable.
Like a sage that speaks only when needed, it waits for volume to prove itself — then draws a memory into space, a zone where traders can re-align their actions with what the market has already honored.
Use it not just to trade —
But to listen.
To observe.
To follow the Chaitanya — the conscious pulse of the market’s own breath.
Max Value Gap [MOT]📊 Max Value Gap — Intraday Fill Zones + Stats Dashboard
Max Value Gap is a real-time gap fill detection system that visualizes institutional-style intraday price inefficiencies on major indices like SPX and NDX. Built for scalpers and short-term traders, it helps identify prime reversal areas where price is likely to return — often within the same session.
This script tracks U.S. regular market hour gaps only (9:30 AM to 4:00 PM ET) and is designed for high-precision execution on the 1-minute chart.
🧠 What Is an SPX Intraday Gap?
An SPX intraday gap occurs when the market creates a void between candles due to rapid price movement — often following volatility spikes, liquidation breaks, or aggressive buyer/seller imbalances. These unfilled zones act like magnetic targets, drawing price back into them as liquidity rebalances.
Unlike overnight gaps, these are formed and resolved within the same session, making them ideal for intraday strategies.
🔍 Key Features
✅ 1. Automatic Gap Detection
Scans only during official U.S. equity market hours (9:30 AM – 4:00 PM EST)
Gap Up: A green candle opens above the previous high
Gap Down: A red candle opens below the previous low
Each valid gap is outlined using colored boxes:
🟩 Green Box = Gap Up
🟥 Red Box = Gap Down
📸 Image : Chart with both green and red boxes marking gaps on SPX.
✅ 2. Dynamic Gap Zone Tracking
Once a gap is identified, the box extends forward until price fills the zone
A gap is considered filled when:
Price trades back into the gap zone
For gap ups: price crosses below the bottom of the gap
For gap downs: price crosses above the top of the gap
Users have the option to auto-delete filled boxes for clarity
📸 Image: Chart with price re-entering and completing a gap fill with box extending only until that point.
✅ 3. Real-Time Statistics Table
Located in the bottom-right of your chart, the built-in dashboard shows:
Total gaps formed
Gaps filled intraday
Gaps filled same day
Percentages of successful fills
📸 Image: Picture of statistics table
This live table helps assess whether the current day’s gaps are behaving in line with historical probabilities — no guesswork required.
🔄 Futures Execution Strategy
While the gaps are plotted on the SPX (or index) chart, the actual trades are taken on MNQ, NQ, or ES, using the gap levels as entry targets.
Sample Trading Flow:
A gap down forms on SPX at 1:45 PM (EST)
Price starts showing reversal signs back toward the gap
Enter long MNQ or NQ targeting a move into the gap zone
Take profit once price fully fills the zone
Repeat throughout the session — trend or chop, gaps are a magnet
This method mirrors institutional mean reversion techniques, capitalizing on market inefficiencies without chasing momentum.

✅ Best Practices
Works best during morning session volatility (9:30–11:30 AM ET)
Combine with reversal candles or momentum tools for high-quality entries
Avoid during low-volume lunch chop unless tracking larger gap zones
Use on SPX while executing trades on MNQ/NQ/ES

Supply & Demand (OTC)Supply & Demand - Advanced Zone Detection
Overview
This indicator is a sophisticated tool designed to automatically identify and draw high-probability supply and demand zones on your chart. It analyzes pure price action to find key areas where institutional buying and selling pressure has previously occurred, providing you with a clear map of potential market turning points.
Unlike basic supply and demand indicators, this script is built with a proprietary engine that intelligently defines zone boundaries and filters for the most relevant price action patterns. It's designed to be a clean, professional, and highly customizable tool for traders who use supply and demand as a core part of their strategy.
Features
Advanced Zone Detection: Automatically finds and draws supply and demand zones based on significant price imbalances.
Reversal & Continuation Patterns: Identifies all four major price action patterns: Rally-Base-Drop (RBD), Drop-Base-Rally (DBR), Rally-Base-Rally (RBR), and Drop-Base-Drop (DBD).
"Level on Level" (LoL) Analysis: Automatically detects and labels zones that are stacked closely together, highlighting areas of potentially high liquidity and significance.
Wider vs. Preferred Zones: Choose between two zone definition modes. "Wider" mode draws the zone based on the full range of the consolidation, while "Preferred" mode refines the entry line based on key price action within the base, offering more precision.
Smart Zone Display: Intelligently displays only the most relevant zones closest to the current price, keeping your chart clean and focused. Supply zones above the current price and demand zones below are automatically prioritized and displayed based on your settings.
Customizable Zone Interaction: Control how zones react after being tested. Zones can change color on a first touch and be automatically deleted after a significant violation, which you can define by a percentage.
Customizable Visuals & Alerts: Fully customize the colors of all zones and candles. Enable or disable alerts for new zone creation and zone touches to stay on top of market movements.
How to Use
Identify Zones: The indicator will automatically plot supply zones (red) above the price and demand zones (green) below the price. These are potential areas to look for trade entries.
Assess Zone Strength: The strongest zones are typically "fresh" (untouched) and are formed by a strong, explosive move away from a tight consolidation (a small number of base candles).
Use Labels for Context: The floating labels (RBD, DBR, RBR (LoL), etc.) provide immediate context about the price action structure that formed each zone. "LoL" indicates a "Level on Level" zone, which may be of higher importance.
Wait for Confirmation: For the highest probability setups, wait for the price to return to a zone and show signs of rejection (e.g., reversal candlestick patterns) before considering an entry.
Settings Overview
Zone Definition: Control the core logic, such as including continuation patterns, setting the max number of base candles, and choosing between Wider and Preferred zone types.
Zone Display & Limits: Toggle limits on or off, and specify the maximum number of supply and demand zones to show on the chart.
Zone Interaction: Define how zones react to being tested, including the percentage required to delete a zone.
Colors & Style: Fully customize the appearance of zones, labels, and price candles.
Alerts: Enable or disable alerts for key events.
