Volume Volatility and Delta Indicator (HN)This Volume Volatility Indicator with Overall Average from Hossein.N helps you visualize the volatility of volume on different timeframes and compares it to the average volume over a given period. It includes several components:
Volume Volatility Indicator (Blue Line): This shows the volatility of volume relative to its moving average over a specified period. Higher values indicate more volatile trading conditions.
Long-Term Volatility Average (Orange Line): This line shows the moving average of the volume volatility indicator over a longer period. It acts as a benchmark for comparing the current volume volatility with historical trends.
Average Volume on Up Days (Green Line): Displays the average volume on days when the price is going up (green).
Average Volume on Down Days (Red Line): Displays the average volume on days when the price is going down (red).
Delta in Percentage (Blue Line): This shows the difference between the average volume of up days and down days, expressed as a percentage of the overall moving average of volume. It can be used to identify bullish or bearish volume imbalances. For example:
Positive values indicate that the volume on up days is stronger than on down days, which could suggest a bullish trend.
Negative values suggest that volume on down days is stronger than on up days, potentially indicating a bearish trend.
Zero Line (Gray Dotted Line): A reference line at 0 that helps you identify when the delta is positive or negative, and visualize the neutral point where volume is balanced between up and down days.
How to Use This Indicator:
Add to Your Chart: Copy the script above and paste it into TradingView's Pine Script editor. Click "Add to Chart" to visualize the indicator.
Interpret the Indicator:
Volume Volatility: A higher value suggests high market volatility. When volume is highly volatile, it may indicate more significant price movements or market uncertainty.
Long-Term Average of Volatility: Use this line as a reference to see whether current volatility is above or below average over a longer period.
Delta in Percentage: This is particularly useful to compare the strength of buying and selling volume. A positive delta percentage suggests strong buying pressure, while a negative delta suggests strong selling pressure. The closer the delta is to zero, the more balanced the volume between up and down days.
Use for Trend Confirmation: The indicator can help confirm trends. If the delta percentage is positive and increasing, and the volume volatility is above average, it could signal strong bullish momentum. Conversely, if the delta is negative and the volume volatility is rising, it may suggest bearish sentiment.

BB MTF FVGs & First PresentedBB MTF FVGs with First Presented FVG Highlight
The BB MTF FVGs with First Presented FVG Highlight indicator is an advanced trading tool designed to help users identify and monitor Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across multiple timeframes, offering traders deep insight into market structure and liquidity imbalances. With the ability to track up to three distinct timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day), this indicator provides a comprehensive multi-level perspective, helping traders recognize critical support and resistance areas based on liquidity gaps. Additionally, it highlights the first FVG that presents after a specific time each day, making it especially useful for traders who prioritize session starts or key time-based market activity.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Key Features
1. Multi-Timeframe FVG Detection on Three Levels:
• Track FVGs on three user-defined timeframes for a robust view of liquidity gaps across intraday, intermediate, and higher timeframes. For instance, you could set up 1-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day timeframes to capture the market’s behavior from granular intraday action to daily structural gaps. Each timeframe is fully customizable, and users can enable or disable individual levels as needed.
2. Price Action-Driven FVG Status Analysis:
• The indicator continuously monitors price action to assess the state of each FVG. FVGs are dynamically styled based on their status:
• Untouched: FVGs with solid borders indicate that price has not yet traded into the gap.
• Mitigated: If price partially fills or “mitigates” an FVG, its borders turn dotted, providing visual feedback that the gap has seen some interaction.
• Inverted: When an FVG is fully invalidated by price moving completely through it, the border is removed, signaling the inversion. This real-time analysis gives traders instant feedback on the status of each FVG, helping them quickly assess active, mitigated, or invalidated zones.
3. Highlighting the First FVG After a Specified Time:
• A unique feature that highlights the first FVG presented after a specified time (e.g., 9:30 AM) each day, making it easy for traders to focus on session-based FVGs that could impact market direction. This feature is especially valuable for those tracking the opening range or specific session periods.
4. Configurable FVG Extension Options:
• The indicator offers flexible settings to control how long each FVG remains extended across the chart. Users can choose to extend until the first mitigation, until full mitigation, until inversion, or opt for no extension. This allows traders to adjust FVG visibility duration based on their strategy and trading style.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Customizable User Inputs
The BB MTF FVGs with First Presented FVG Highlight indicator includes various customization options for a personalized experience:
• Three Configurable Timeframes for FVG Tracking:

• Timeframe 3: Higher timeframe, like 1 day, to track major gaps with a longer-term impact. Each timeframe is independently customizable, allowing users to tailor their multi-timeframe FVG setup to fit their trading approach.
• Session-Based First FVG Highlighting:
• Highlight Type: Select whether to highlight only the first FVG presented after the defined time, display it with other FVGs, or turn off the highlight feature.
• Start and End Time for First Highlighted FVG: Specify the start and end time (e.g., 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM) for highlighting the first FVG, enabling a session-focused approach.
• Plotting Control for Forming FVGs:
• Forming FVG Display: Enable or disable forming FVGs for each timeframe, allowing traders to track potential gaps as they start to appear before confirmation.
• Color and Style Customization:
• FVG Colors: Define colors for long and short FVGs on each timeframe for visual clarity. Additionally, set the highlight color for the first FVG to make it stand out.
• Border Styling Based on FVG Status: The indicator’s dynamic border styling provides a clear visual status for each FVG:
• Solid borders for untouched FVGs.
• Dotted borders for mitigated FVGs.
• Borderless display for inverted FVGs.
• Flexible FVG Extension Duration:
• Choose the extension behavior for FVGs based on preferred criteria: extending until first mitigation, keeping them until fully mitigated, extending until inversion, or selecting no extension. This flexibility is ideal for traders who want to adapt FVG visibility to specific conditions.

Volumatic Variable Index Dynamic Average [BigBeluga]The Volumatic VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) indicator is a trend-following tool that calculates and visualizes both the current trend and the corresponding buy and sell pressure within each trend phase. Using the Variable Index Dynamic Average as the core smoothing technique, this indicator also plots volume levels of lows and highs based on market structure pivot points, providing traders with key insights into price and volume dynamics.
Additionally, it generates delta volume values to help traders evaluate buy-sell pressure balance during each trend, making it a powerful tool for understanding market sentiment shifts.

TSLA:
🔵 IDEA
The Volumatic VIDYA indicator's core idea is to provide a dynamic, adaptive smoothing tool that identifies trends while simultaneously calculating the volume pressure behind them. The VIDYA line, based on the Variable Index Dynamic Average, adjusts according to the strength of the price movements, offering a more adaptive response to the market compared to standard moving averages.
By calculating and displaying the buy and sell volume pressure throughout each trend, the indicator provides traders with key insights into market participation. The horizontal lines drawn from the highs and lows of market structure pivots give additional clarity on support and resistance levels, backed by average volume at these points. This dual analysis of trend and volume allows traders to evaluate the strength and potential of market movements more effectively.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
VIDYA Calculation:
The Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA) is a special type of moving average that adjusts dynamically to the market’s volatility and momentum. Unlike traditional moving averages that use fixed periods, VIDYA adjusts its smoothing factor based on the relative strength of the price movements, using the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) to capture the magnitude of price changes. When momentum is strong, VIDYA adapts and smooths out price movements quicker, making it more responsive to rapid price changes. This makes VIDYA more adaptable to volatile markets compared to traditional moving averages such as the Simple Moving Average (SMA) or the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which are less flexible.
// VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) function
vidya_calc(src, vidya_length, vidya_momentum) =>
float momentum = ta.change(src)
float sum_pos_momentum = math.sum((momentum >= 0) ? momentum : 0.0, vidya_momentum)
float sum_neg_momentum = math.sum((momentum >= 0) ? 0.0 : -momentum, vidya_momentum)
float abs_cmo = math.abs(100 * (sum_pos_momentum - sum_neg_momentum) / (sum_pos_momentum + sum_neg_momentum))
float alpha = 2 / (vidya_length + 1)
var float vidya_value = 0.0
vidya_value := alpha * abs_cmo / 100 * src + (1 - alpha * abs_cmo / 100) * nz(vidya_value )
ta.sma(vidya_value, 15)
When momentum is strong, VIDYA adapts and smooths out price movements quicker, making it more responsive to rapid price changes. This makes VIDYA more adaptable to volatile markets compared to traditional moving averages
Triangle Trend Shift Signals:
The indicator marks trend shifts with up and down triangles, signaling a potential change in direction. These signals appear when the price crosses above a VIDYA during an uptrend or crosses below during a downtrend.
Volume Pressure Calculation:
The Volumatic VIDYA tracks the buy and sell pressure during each trend, calculating the cumulative volume for up and down bars. Positive delta volume occurs during uptrends due to higher buy pressure, while negative delta volume reflects higher sell pressure during downtrends. The delta is displayed in real-time on the chart, offering a quick view of volume imbalances.
Market Structure Pivot Lines with Volume Labels:
The indicator draws horizontal lines based on market structure pivots, which are calculated using the highs and lows of price action. These lines are extended on the chart until price crosses them. The indicator also plots the average volume over a 6-bar range to provide a clearer understanding of volume dynamics at critical points.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
VIDYA Length & Momentum: Control the sensitivity of the VIDYA line by adjusting the length and momentum settings, allowing traders to customize the smoothing effect to match their trading style.
Volume Pivot Detection: Set the number of bars to consider for identifying pivots, which influences the calculation of the average volume at key levels.
Band Distance: Adjust the band distance multiplier for controlling how far the upper and lower bands extend from the VIDYA line, based on the ATR (Average True Range).
ICT NY Silver Bullet SessionsThe ICT NY Silver Bullet Sessions refer to two specific time windows within the New York trading session, during which traders aim to exploit short-term, high-probability price movements, particularly using price-action techniques inspired by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. These sessions are typically associated with a higher likelihood of volatility and liquidity due to their proximity to key market hours, making them ideal for scalping or intraday trading strategies.
The Silver Bullet concept emphasizes precise entries and exits, taking advantage of institutional trading behaviors and order flow within these two specific time windows:
(I) The AM Silver Bullet Session (10:00 AM – 11:00 AM EST)
Time Frame: This session runs from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM Eastern Standard Time (EST).
Significance: During this hour, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) has been open for about 30 minutes, which typically generates volatility as the market reacts to overnight price movements, economic news, or early U.S. session developments. Traders look for institutional price action setups like stop runs, liquidity grabs, or reversals.
Key Considerations: Traders often focus on major indices (such as the S&P 500 or NASDAQ), forex pairs, or commodities like gold and silver. The AM session is especially important for catching trends or retracements established in the London session or the early New York market hours.
(II) The PM Silver Bullet Session (02:00 PM – 03:00 PM EST)
Time Frame: This session occurs from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST).
Significance: Known as the afternoon session, this time period aligns with institutional rebalancing and pre-close positioning, where significant liquidity enters the market as traders anticipate the upcoming New York close and London close (which happens at 11:00 AM EST). It is also a common time for institutional traders to initiate price moves that carry through into the end of the trading day.
Key Considerations: Traders monitor for key reversals, liquidity sweeps, or continuations of earlier trends. This is a prime time for trading major currencies and indices, as well as commodities like crude oil and metals, with a focus on exploiting liquidity imbalances.

⭐ Key Features
Swing Market Structure: Change of Character, Break of Structure
Recognize and visualize real-time market structures with swing elements. Identify and mark key structural changes in the market to visually highlight shifts in market trends and patterns. This feature is designed to alert you to significant changes in the market's behavior, signaling a potential shift from accumulation to distribution phases, or vice versa. It helps traders adapt their strategies based on evolving market dynamics.
Order Flow: Structure Fractal
Connect the successive structural high and low levels, visualizing the intricate flow of market movements. This feature highlights fractal structures within the market, enabling traders to detect significant price action patterns.
Structure Range: Determine Discount, Premium, and Equilibrium Zones
This feature provides a unique way of visualizing price areas where a security could be overbought or oversold (premium or discount zones) and where the price is expected to be fair and balanced (equilibrium zone). Distance from the current price is displayed in percentage terms, which can assist traders with crucial data for risk management and strategic planning. The Range function helps you identify the most favorable price zones for entries and set your stop-loss and take-profit levels more accurately.
Liquidity Grabs: Reveal Hidden Manipulation Attempts
Identify uncovered market areas where high liquidity trading may take place. Liquidity Grabs help track "smart money" footprints by identifying levels where large institutional traders may have induced liquidity traps. Understanding these traps can aid in avoiding false market moves and optimizing trade entries.
Institutional Interest Zones: Order Blocks and Fair Value Gaps
Uncover areas where bigger orders may be lined up. Reveal zones of interest ordered by volume strength. Receive warnings about market price imbalances.
▸ Order Blocks pinpoint crucial zones where large institutional investors ("smart money") have shown strong buying or selling interest recently. These blocks can serve as a tool for identifying key areas for potential trade entries or exits.
▸ Fair Value Gaps detect discrepancies between the perceived market value and the actual market price, revealing potential areas for price correction. With its mitigation settings, you can fine-tune the FVG detection according to the magnitude of value misalignment you consider significant.
Mitigation types dictate how price interacts with a zone, with order blocks requiring a close through (indicating stronger price movement) and fair value gaps requiring a wick through (hinting at weak rejection).

⭐ Why SMC?
In the ever-evolving trading landscape, mainstream methods and strategies can quickly become outdated as they are widely adopted. Liquidity is constantly sought after, and the best source for this is exploring and exploiting trading strategies that are widely accepted and applied. Currently, one of these strategies is the SMC (Supply, Demand, and Price Action).
It's no coincidence that our educational materials incorporate concepts such as liquidity grabs (LG) and Smart Money Traps (SMT). As the application of SMC gains popularity among retail traders, trading with this approach becomes more challenging. Therefore, the recent focus has been on reforming the SMC methodology, as it is the only method that relies on real price movements and will always work when applied correctly.
The indicator reflects our personal use and deep comprehension of Smart Money Concepts. It provides streamlined tools for tracking algorithmic trends with modern visualizations, without unnecessary clutter.
▸ What does the proper application of SMC entail?
Many SMC traders associate their key areas of interest with the market structure, which is generally considered acceptable. However, depending solely on a single foundation can lead to significant deviations, which may cause notable impacts on trading results. Moreover, if the basis for the market structure calculation is inaccurate, the consequences can be even more severe. It's akin to risking money on a lottery ticket, believing it will be a winner.
Our methodology is different, and it may ensure longevity in the financial markets. The structure remains crucial, but it is not the sole foundation of everything; instead, it serves as a validation tool. Each calculation, such as order blocks (OB), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), liquidity grabs (LG), range analysis, and more, is independent and unique, separate from the structure. However, validation must ultimately come from the structure itself.
We employ individual and high-quality filters: before a function calculation is validated by the structure, it must undergo rigorous testing based on its own set of validation conditions. This approach aims to enhance robustness and accuracy, providing traders with a reliable framework for making informed trading decisions.
▸ An example of structure validation: Order Block with "Swing Sensitivity"
These order blocks will only be displayed and utilized by the script if there is a swing structure validation with a valid break. In other words, the presence of a confirmed swing Change of Character (ChoCh) or Break of Structure (BoS) is essential for the Order Block to be considered valid and relevant.
This approach ensures that the order blocks are aligned with the overall market structure and are not based on isolated or unreliable price movements. Whether it's Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Liquidity Grabs (LG), Range calculations, or other functionalities, the same underlying principle holds true. The background structure calculation serves as a validation mechanism for the data and insights generated by these functions, ensuring they adhere to the specific criteria and rules established within our methodology. By incorporating this robust validation process, traders can have confidence in the reliability and accuracy of the information provided by the indicator, allowing them to make informed trading decisions based on validated data and analysis.

👉 Usage - the general approach
Determine your trading style and build your basic strategy:
The indicator helps you understand your trading style, whether it's swing trading, scalping or another approach. By analyzing the SMC indicator, you gain valuable information about potential market trends, entry and exit points, and overall market sentiment.
Steps:
Identify Trading Style: Determine whether you are a swing trader, scalper, or long-term investor. This will influence how you use the indicator.
Analyze Market Trends: Use the SMC indicator to observe market trends and identify potential entry and exit points.
Adapt Strategies: Adjust your strategies based on the market dynamics revealed by the SMC indicator, such as changes in order flow or market structure.
👉 Example of usage
In the following chart, you'll notice how we've utilized the indicator to formulate a strategic trading approach. We've employed Order Blocks equipped with volume parameters to identify crucial market zones. Simultaneously, we've leveraged swing/internal market structures to gain insights into potential long- and short-term market turnarounds. Lastly, we've examined trend line liquidity zones to pinpoint probable impulses and breakouts within ongoing trends.
Now we can see how the price descended to the order block with the highest volume, which we had previously marked as our point of interest for an entry. As the price closed below the median Order Block, we noted its mitigation. After an internal CHoCH, it's directing us towards the main Order Block as a target.

LIT - TimingIntroduction
This Script displays the Asia Session Range, the London Open Inducement Window, the NY Open Inducement Window, the Previous Week's high and low, the Previous Day's highs and lows, and the Day Open price in the cleanest way possible.
Description
The Indicator is based on UTC -7 timing but displays the Session Boxes automatically correct at your chart so you do not have to adjust any timings based on your Time Zone and don't have to do any calculations based on your UTC. It is already perfect.
You will see on default settings the purple Asia Box and 2 grey boxes, the first one is for the London Open Inducement Window (1 hour) and the second grey box is for the NY Open Inducement Window (also 1 hour)
Asia Range comes with default settings with the Asia Range high, low, and midline, you can remove these 3 lines in the settings "style" and untick the "Lines" box, that way you only will have the boxes displayed.
Special Feature
Most Timing-based Indicators have "bugged" boxes or don't show clean boxes at all and don't adjust at daylight savings times, we made sure that everything automatically gets adjusted so you don't have to! So the timings will always display at the correct time regarding the daylight savings times.
Combining Timing with Liquidity Zones the right way and in a clear, clean, and simple format.
Different than others this script also shows the "true" Asia range as it respects the "day open gap" which affects the Asia range in other scripts and it also covers the full 8 hours of Asia Session.
Additions
You can add in the settings menu the last week's high and low, the previous day's high and low, and also the day's open price by ticking the boxes in the settings menu
All colors of the boxes are fully adjustable and customizable for your personal preferences. Same for the previous weeks and day highs and lows. Just go to "Style" and you can adjust the Line types or colors to your preferred choice.
Recommended Use
The most beautiful display is on the M5 Timeframe as you have a clear overview of all sessions without losing the intraday view. You can also use it on the M1 for more details or the M15 for the bigger picture. The Template can hide on higher time frames starting from the H1 to not flood your chart with boxes.
How to use the Asia Session Range Box
Use the Asia Range Box as your intraday Guide, keep in mind that a Breakout of Asia high or low induces Liquidity and a common price behavior is a reversal after the fake breakout of that range.
How to use the London Open and NY Open Inducement Windows
Both grey boxes highlight the Open of either London Open or NY Open and you should keep an eye out for potential Liquditiy Graps or Mitigations during that times as this is when they introduce major Liquidity for the regarding Session.
How to use the Asia high, low and midline and day open price
After Asia Range got taken out in one direction, often price comes back to those levels to mitigate or bounce off, so you can imagine those zones as support and resistance on some occasions, recommended in combination with Imbalances.
How to use the previous day and week's highs and lows
Once added in the settings, you can display those price levels, you can use them either as Liquidity Targets or as Inducement Levels once they are taken out.
Enjoy!
Market Structure & Price Action Toolkit (Expo)█ Overview
This comprehensive Market Structure and Price Action toolkit integrates pioneering price action concepts, including fractal-based market structure, grid-price action system, retail and institutional levels/zones, liquidity concepts, and a plethora of advanced customization options to give you a trading advantage via price action automatically. Different from traditional technical indicators, which can be lagging, complex, and cluttered, this indicator focuses solely on raw price data to deliver accurate and real-time insights. All the features in this script originate exclusively from price action, concentrating on fractals-based swing highs, swing lows, and market structure. This enables users to automate their price action analysis across any market or timeframe.
The toolkit focuses on the real-time application of price data rather than historical data to ensure its usefulness for price action and smart money (ICT) traders. With this indicator, users can automate their price action analysis across various markets and timeframes, gaining a significant edge in their trading strategies.
█ Features and How They Work
█ Trading Systems
Market Structure:
Market Structure deals with the interpretation of price action that forms the market structure, focusing on understanding key shifts and changes in the market that may indicate where 'smart money' (large institutional investors and professional traders) might be moving in the market. This feature is based on real-time fractals instead of static pivot points. Fractals are based on the idea that markets are patterned, and those patterns repeat themselves on all scales – hence, the term "fractal", which means "fraction of the whole". The function uses fractal zones that refer to areas where the price is likely to experience a change in direction. These zones are identified by observing a series of fractal points.
Grid:
The grid system works similarly to the market structure but displays the data as a grid of support and resistance zones. This is a new and unique approach to understanding market structure. It might be a more convenient way for traders to understand how to act.
█ Retail Zones
Support/Resistance:
Support and Resistance zone are often seen and displayed with a delay. This feature is 100% real-time and displays SR levels as the price reacts and forms new highs and lows.
Confirmed Support/Resistance:
As the name suggests, the confirmed zone is first displayed on the chart when the price has reacted to a high/low formation over x period of time. This feature is handy to trade retest after breakouts of the zone.
We wanted to keep the retail zones simple regarding how they work and function to help all kinds of traders understand how to use them.
█ Institutional Zones
Supply/Demand:
Calculating supply and demand in its raw form is challenging due to the complexity and dynamism of financial markets. However, the function uses several concepts to gauge supply and demand levels.
Buying and Selling pressure: The buying pressure represents the highest price point (over x period and volume), while the selling pressure price represents the lowest price point (over x period and volume). The gap between the two is known as the buying/selling pressure spread. A narrow spread often signifies high liquidity and balanced supply and demand, while a wider spread might indicate imbalances.
Price Trends: Upward price movements indicate higher demand, while downward trends may suggest increased supply.
Order blocks:
Order blocks are similar to supply/demand, and the main difference is that an order block is created at specific price action and market structure patterns.

█ Why Use Price Action and Market Structure
A comprehensive trading strategy often involves using both price action and market structure. Traders can use price action to understand the immediate behavior of the price and market structure to understand the broader context within which the price is moving.
Market Structure combined with Price Action refers to the observable pattern of price movement. Traders use this structure to identify trend direction (up, down, or sideways), market phase (trend or range), and key price levels (like support and resistance).
Here are some core concepts within price action trading:
Trend Identification: This is a fundamental aspect of price action trading. By simply looking at the raw price data on a chart, traders can identify whether the instrument is in an uptrend (making higher highs and higher lows), a downtrend (making lower highs and lower lows), or ranging sideways.
Support and Resistance Levels: These are horizontal lines drawn on a chart where the price has historically had difficulty moving beyond. Support is a price level where buying pressure is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further, while resistance is a level where selling pressure is strong enough to prevent further price increases.
Candlestick Patterns: Price action traders rely heavily on candlestick patterns, which can provide a lot of information about market sentiment.
Chart Patterns: In addition to individual candlestick patterns, price action traders often look for larger chart patterns like double tops/bottoms, triangles, wedges, head and shoulders patterns, and more. These patterns can take longer to form but can also provide insight into potential price movement.
Price Zones: Rather than exact price levels, many price action traders consider zones of support and resistance, understanding that market behavior isn't always perfectly precise. A zone might cover a small range of prices at which the market has repeatedly reversed in the past.
The idea behind price action trading is that the price itself can provide clues to what the market might do next. Traders who follow this approach believe that price is the final determinant of value and contains all the information needed.
█ Any Alert Function Call
This function allows traders to combine any feature and create customized alerts. These alerts can be set for various conditions and customized according to the trader's strategy or preferences.
█ In conclusion, This toolkit is particularly useful for price action and smart money traders, as it prioritizes real-time application of price data, which in turn allows a more responsive and informed decision-making process in trading.

Inner Circle Trader Institutional ORDER BLOCKS FOREX Theory
Today we are talking about the infamous ORDER BLOCKS by ICT forex trading Strategy. Order Blocks have proven to be a very effective tool in trading as they allow traders to gain high reward with low risk trades.
What is an Order Block? - The Order Block is a specific price range or candle where institutions will be buying or selling against the retail trend/dump money.
Institutions leave order blocks for themselves to trade at a later stage. They will reverse the price to a previous order and then driving the price hard in the direction of the trend (The real institutional trend).
These order blocks we can also call them specific levels of either going Long or Short. If an order block is violated or broken, it now qualifies as a Breaker, meaning Price will retest back to that order block. Sometimes we call it a failed order block.
Types of OBs:
i. Bullish Order Block (BUB)
ii. Bearish Order Block (BEB)

Why H2M ®️ – SMC Stands Out
Institutional-Grade Insights: Built around SMC principles, this indicator marks structures like Break of Structure (BOS), Change of Character (CHoCH), zones of liquidity, and imbalance. This aligns with what established SMC indicators offer, such as order blocks, fair value gaps, premium/discount zones, and swing labeling ...
User-Friendly Design: Intent on cutting through chart clutter—focused visuals and intuitive overlays for swift interpretation.
OB old version by triummWhat is an Order Block?
In Smart Money Concepts (SMC), an order block (OB) is the last bullish or bearish candle before a strong impulsive move that breaks structure.
A Bullish OB → the last down candle before price moves strongly up.
A Bearish OB → the last up candle before price moves strongly down.
Order blocks represent areas where institutions or “smart money” placed large buy/sell orders.
🔹 What is a Volume Order Block?
A Volume Order Block adds a volume filter to standard order blocks.
Instead of just marking any OB, it highlights only those that are confirmed by abnormally high trading volume.
📌 Logic:
When banks/institutions create OBs, they usually inject big volume into the market.
Regular OBs may appear everywhere, but volume-based OBs filter out weak ones.
🔹 How to Identify a Volume Order Block
Find the OB normally (last opposite candle before strong move).
Check volume of that OB candle:
If volume is above average → strong OB (institutions active).
If volume is low/normal → weak OB (likely to fail).
🔹 Why Volume OB is Better
Filters fake OBs → many OBs form, but not all are institutional.
Higher probability zones → when price revisits that OB, it’s more likely to respect it.
Confluence with liquidity → strong OB + high volume often means liquidity grab + institutional entry.
🔹 Example (Bullish Volume OB)
Price is in a downtrend.
A bearish candle with unusually high volume forms.
Immediately after, price pushes up strongly, breaking structure.
That bearish candle is now a bullish volume order block.
When price returns to that level → strong buy reaction expected.
🔹 How Traders Use Volume OBs
Entries → wait for price to revisit the OB + volume support.
Stop Loss → usually below (bullish OB) or above (bearish OB).
Target → next liquidity pool, FVG, or imbalance.
Filtering → ignore OBs with low volume → less clutter on chart.
✅ In short:
A Volume Order Block = A normal OB + confirmed by unusually high volume.
It gives you higher quality supply & demand zones backed by institutional activity.

SMC - OB/Breaker Block/Bos/ChoCh (DeadCat) Based on analyzing your Pine Script code, here are comprehensive descriptions that should comply with TradingView's house rules:
Script 1: "PO3 Liquidity w/ CISD (DeadCat)"
Description:
This indicator implements the Power of Three (PO3) liquidity concept combined with Change in State of Delivery (CISD) pattern recognition for Smart Money Concepts (SMC) trading. The script operates on multi-timeframe analysis using automated timeframe selection.
Core Methodology: The indicator identifies C2 liquidity sweeps by detecting when price breaks previous period highs/lows and then reverses back above/below those levels. It specifically looks for:
C2 Buy Setup: When current low breaks previous period low but closes back above it
C2 Sell Setup: When current high breaks previous period high but closes back below it
CISD Pattern Detection: The script implements sophisticated CISD (Change in State of Delivery) pattern recognition by:
Tracking the first break of previous HTF high/low levels
Identifying imbalance candles (gaps between consecutive candles)
Confirming CISD when price reclaims the imbalance level within 2 HTF periods
Validating setups only when both liquidity sweep AND CISD confirmation occur
Visual Components:
HTF Candles: Displays higher timeframe candle structure on current chart
Trading Zones: Shows zones between HTF open and equilibrium levels
CISD Lines: Marks confirmed change in state of delivery levels
C2/C4 Labels: Identifies liquidity sweep entry points and potential continuation setups
Market Structure: Optional HH/HL/LH/LL pivot markers
Unique Features:
Automatic timeframe calculation (15m→4H, 1H→1D, etc.)
Real-time HTF period countdown
Setup invalidation tracking when stops are hit
Progressive setup confirmation (C2→C4 evolution)
Bias filter for directional trading preferences
Usage: C2 setups provide initial entry opportunities after confirmed liquidity sweeps with CISD confirmation. C4 setups offer additional entries when HTF equilibrium conditions align favorably. The indicator helps traders identify institutional liquidity grabs followed by genuine directional moves.
Script 2: "SMC Toolkit (DeadCat)"
Description:
This comprehensive Smart Money Concepts toolkit provides institutional-level market structure analysis with automated Order Block (OB) and Breaker Block (BB) zone identification, plus Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (ChoCh) detection.
Market Structure Algorithm: The indicator uses a sophisticated pivot-based algorithm to identify and track market structure progression:
Uptrend: HH→HL→HH sequence tracking
Downtrend: LL→LH→LL sequence tracking
Trend Changes: Automatic ChoCh detection when structure breaks occur
Order Block Logic:
Bullish OB Zones: Created at Higher Lows (HL) and Lower Lows (LL) during uptrends
Bearish OB Zones: Created at Lower Highs (LH) and Higher Highs (HH) during downtrends
Uses last bearish candle before bullish moves (and vice versa) to define precise zone boundaries
Breaker Block Logic:
Bullish BB Zones: Former resistance that becomes support after HH/LH breaks
Bearish BB Zones: Former support that becomes resistance after LL/HL breaks
Automatically transitions when structure points are breached
Zone Management: The script employs intelligent zone lifecycle management:
Creates new zones only at confirmed structure points
Makes previous zones transparent when new structure is confirmed
Maintains zone relevance through dynamic extension
Limits total zones to prevent chart clutter
BOS vs ChoCh Detection:
BOS (Break of Structure): Continuation patterns when trend highs/lows are exceeded
ChoCh (Change of Character): Reversal patterns when pullback levels are broken against trend
Requires 2-candle confirmation before finalizing structure changes
Visual Enhancements:
Color-coded zones with transparency controls
Directional arrows (▲/▼) in zone labels
Customizable line styles and text sizing
Clean market structure progression tracking
Originality: This toolkit combines traditional SMC concepts with enhanced zone boundary calculation using multi-candle analysis and intelligent zone lifecycle management, providing more precise entry/exit levels than standard implementations.

EURUSD Kill Zone [Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital]EUR/USD Kil Zone
Core Logic: Navigating the New‑York Kill‑Zone
The EUR/USD Killzone is designed to exploit repeatable patterns that occur during the overlap of the London and New‑York trading sessions. Research shows that the New‑York “kill zone”—roughly 07:00–09:00 EST—produces the most dramatic moves in EUR‑ and USD‑linked currency pairs
During this window, large institutions often sweep out liquidity resting above or below the Asian and early‑London session extremes , triggering sharp reversals before a new intraday trend emerges. This is in contrast to the single pre-market sweeps occuring for GOLD/
This modeul uses ICT/Smart Money Concepts to read these patterns and waits for three confirmations before signalling a trade:
Liquidity Sweep & Rejection. Price must spike beyond the combined Asian and early‑London range and then reject that area (a sharp wick and opposite‑coloured candle), signalling that stops have been cleared. The module defines the Asian range from 00:00–05:00 EST and the London range from 02:00–05:00 EST, following the guideline that overlapping sessions produce the greatest volatility
Market Structure Break. It then waits for the 5‑minute price to close beyond the most recent swing high/low (pivot), confirming that a genuine shift in order flow has occurred rather than a simple stop‑run.
Fair‑Value‑Gap (FVG) Re‑Test. Upon the break, the script records the high and low of that 5‑minute “displacement” candle and defines a fair‑value gap—the imbalance between buyers and sellers. Rather than entering immediately, it sets a virtual limit order at the 50 % level of this gap. A trade is only triggered once price retraces to this mid‑point, providing a high‑probability, high‑reward entry.
These three filters help avoid common pitfalls when trading kill zones, such as false breakouts and news‑driven whipsaws. The indicator also monitors higher‑timeframe bias (4‑hour and daily charts) using 50‑ and 200‑period moving averages to gauge whether the intraday signal aligns with the broader trend.
Feature Set
The indicator provides a suite of visual and analytical tools to support disciplined trading:
Session Range Mapping: automatically draws the Asian (00:00–05:00 EST) and London (02:00–05:00 EST) session highs and lows, making it easy to see when price sweeps these levels.
Kill‑Zone Monitoring: a built‑in timer isolates the 07:30–09:00 EST window and limits the indicator to one trade per session to avoid over‑trading.
Pivot‑Break Detection: uses 5‑minute swing highs/lows to confirm that order flow has shifted before looking for entries.
Fair‑Value‑Gap Re‑test: defines an FVG from the displacement candle and waits for a 50 % retrace before triggering a signal. This improves risk‑to‑reward by entering at a discount (for longs) or premium (for shorts).
Higher‑Timeframe Dashboard: displays bullish/bearish/neutral biases on the 4‑hour and daily charts, plus a confidence rating (0–2) indicating how many of these timeframes agree with the signal direction.
Alerts: optional alerts can be configured for buy‑only, sell‑only or either‑direction signals.
Best Practices for Use
Align with Major Volatility Windows. The indicator is most effective during the New‑York kill zone. Avoid trading outside this window, and be aware of high‑impact news (e.g., FOMC announcements) that can distort price action
Check Higher‑Timeframe Bias. Use the dashboard to ensure the intraday signal aligns with the 4‑hour and daily trends. For instance, a long signal that aligns with a bullish daily bias carries higher conviction than one going against it.
Manage Risk Responsibly. Even with multiple filters, no strategy is foolproof. Use stop‑loss orders just beyond the liquidity sweep and size positions appropriately.
Combine with Fundamental Awareness. Check your economic calendar for European and U.S. data releases. If an important release occurs during the kill zone, consider standing aside or reducing risk.
Back‑test and Forward‑Test. Always validate the strategy across different market conditions and broker feeds. Pay attention to how spreads, volatility and news events influence the indicator.
Use as Part of a Toolkit. Consider combining the indicator with other confirmation tools such as momentum oscillators, volume analysis or price‑action patterns to refine entries further. Smart‑Money Concepts often use confluence, not a single signal.
What's in It for You?
The EUR/USD Liquidity Sweep Indicator distils institutional concepts—liquidity hunts, market‑structure shifts and fair‑value gaps—into an intuitive, automated tool. By waiting for a retrace into the displacement candle’s imbalance, it helps capture trades where risk‑to‑reward is skewed strongly in your favour. The dashboard encourages you to trade with the higher‑timeframe trend, and built‑in alerts ensure you never miss an opportunity.
In volatile kill‑zone environments, discipline and patience are vital. This indicator enforces both: it tracks session ranges, confirms structure, waits for a retrace, and triggers only when multiple conditions align. Coupled with sound risk management and your own judgement, it can become a cornerstone of a high‑probability trading plan.
Always remember that markets evolve. Continue to refine the indicator and your strategy as you gather more experience and data. The learning journey never ends, but this tool is designed to accelerate it.
Volume FVG | Liquidity Gaps + (Z-Core Edition)📘 Indicator Description — Volume FVG Pro+
Volume FVG Pro+ is a technical analysis tool designed to automatically detect and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on the chart. It incorporates volume-based and ATR-based filtering to highlight only meaningful zones while reducing market noise.
⚙️ How It Works:
FVG Detection:
Identifies gaps between candles that may indicate institutional activity or imbalance.
Supports two types:
Regular FVG — all price gaps.
Volume FVG — gaps with abnormally high volume, calculated via Z-Score (relative to volume average).
ATR Filtering:
Filters out insignificant price gaps using Average True Range (ATR).
Helps show only zones with strong volatility behavior.
Mitigation Logic:
Zones are marked as mitigated (deactivated) when price retraces into them.
Mitigation can be detected by wick or close, with configurable depth percentage.
Zone Extension:
Active zones automatically extend forward until they are mitigated.
Display Options:
Fully customizable:
Bullish/Bearish coloring.
Opacity and box length.
Toggle labels and outlines.
🛠️ Settings Overview:
Z-Score Thresholds — for volume-based FVG detection.
ATR Multiplier — volatility sensitivity.
Mitigation Depth (%) — defines how deep price must retrace to deactivate a zone.
Display Options — full control over how zones appear on the chart.
📌 Why Use Volume FVG:
These gaps often represent footprints of large participants.
They are statistically more likely (15–20%) to hold price and act as reaction zones compared to regular FVGs (based on internal analysis).
Useful for identifying entry/exit areas and refining market structure analysis.
👤 Best For:
Smart Money / Order Flow / Liquidity-based traders.
Intraday and swing traders using price reaction and volume cues.
Anyone seeking clear and efficient FVG detection with filtering.
IFVG ExtendedThis indicator identifies and visualizes "Imbalance Fair Value Gaps" (IFVGs) on a price chart. It highlights these gaps, tracks their evolution, and signals when they are "filled" or "invalidated" by price action. The script is quite advanced, using custom types, arrays, and dynamic drawing.
1. Types and Variables
Custom Types:
lab: Stores label information (x, y, direction).
fvg: Stores Fair Value Gap data, including its boundaries, direction, state, labels, and other properties.
Arrays:
Four arrays track bullish and bearish FVGs, and their "invalidated" (filled) versions.
Signals:
Boolean variables to store if a bullish or bearish signal is triggered.
2. User Inputs and Parameters
Display Settings:
How many recent FVGs to show, signal preference (close or wick), ATR multiplier for gap size filtering, and colors for bullish/bearish/midline.
3. Chart Data
Price Data:
Open, high, low, close, and ATR (Average True Range) are stored for use in calculations.
4. Functions
label_maker:
Draws an up or down arrow label at a given point, colored for bullish or bearish.
fvg_manage:
Checks if any FVGs in the array have been "invalidated" (i.e., price has crossed their boundary). If so, moves them to the invalidated array.
inv_manage:
Manages invalidated FVGs, checking if a signal should be fired (i.e., price has reacted to the gap). Also removes old FVGs.
send_it:
Draws the FVGs and their labels on the chart, using boxes and lines for visualization.
5. Main Logic and Visualization
FVG Detection:
On each bar, checks for new bullish or bearish FVGs based on price action and ATR filter.
Adds new FVGs to the appropriate array.
FVG Management:
Updates the arrays, moves invalidated FVGs, and checks for signals.
Drawing:
On the last bar, clears all previous drawings and redraws the current FVGs and their labels.
6. Alerts
Alert Conditions:
Sets up alerts for when a bullish or bearish IFVG signal is triggered, so users can be notified.
Summary
In short:
This script automatically finds and tracks "Imbalance Fair Value Gaps" on your chart, highlights them, and alerts you when price interacts with them in a significant way. It uses advanced Pine Script features to manage and visualize these zones dynamically, helping traders spot potential reversal or continuation points based on gap theory
Mirror US10YThis TradingView script is designed to automatically detect the asset you are viewing (stock, commodity, or crypto) and, if it matches a long list of supported tickers, overlays a "mirror" subchart. This subchart plots the price action of a related pair—typically the asset divided by the US 10-Year Treasury yield (US10Y), or another relevant macro or sector index. The script also detects and visualizes "Imbalance Fair Value Gaps" (IFVGs) on the subchart, and can trigger alerts when these gaps are filled.
1. Automatic Subchart Detection
The script first checks which symbol you are viewing.
If it matches a list of supported stocks or commodities (e.g., NVDA, TSLA, GOLD), it sets a corresponding subchart pair (e.g., NVDA/US20Y, GOLD/US10Y).
If it’s a crypto asset, it checks both the exchange and the symbol, and sets a subchart like BINANCE:ADAUSDT/US10Y.
If a match is found, it enables plotting for the subchart.
2. Subchart Data Fetching
Once a subchart is selected, the script fetches its OHLCV data (open, high, low, close) and a 200-period ATR (Average True Range) using request.security.
It then plots the subchart’s candlesticks in white (bullish) or red (bearish).
3. IFVG (Imbalance Fair Value Gap) Detection
The script defines custom types and arrays to track bullish and bearish IFVGs and their "invalidation" (when the gap is filled).
It detects IFVGs by looking for price gaps between the current and previous candles, filtered by ATR to avoid noise.
When a gap is detected, it is stored in an array with its coordinates and direction.
4. IFVG Management and Visualization
The script manages the lifecycle of each IFVG: it tracks when a gap is filled (invalidated) and moves it to a separate array.
It draws colored boxes and dashed lines on the chart to visualize the last few IFVGs, using green for bullish and red for bearish.
When a gap is filled, it places a label (▲ or ▼) at the fill point.
5. Alerts
The script sets up two alert conditions: one for a bullish IFVG fill, and one for a bearish IFVG fill.
These can be used to trigger TradingView alerts for trading signals.
6. Debugging and Info Labels
The script displays labels on the chart showing the detected ticker and the subpair being plotted, for clarity.

52SIGNAL RECIPE Smart Money Detector : CME + Exchanges=================52SIGNAL RECIPE CME-Exchange Smart Money Detector=================
◆ Overview
The 52SIGNAL RECIPE CME-Exchange Smart Money Detector is an advanced technical indicator designed to identify institutional and smart money movements by analyzing and comparing futures markets across both CME and cryptocurrency exchanges. This powerful tool detects coordinated buying and selling patterns that often precede significant price movements, giving traders an edge in anticipating market direction.
What makes this indicator unique is its cross-market verification approach. By requiring confirmation from both CME Bitcoin futures (dominated by institutional players) and crypto exchange futures (with broader market participation), it significantly reduces false signals and identifies high-probability smart money footprints that typically lead market movements.
─────────────────────────────────────
◆ Key Features
• Dual Market Confirmation: Simultaneously analyzes both CME Bitcoin futures and exchange futures charts to identify synchronized smart money activity
• Smart Volume Analysis: Uses advanced algorithms to separate buying and selling volume based on candle structure and price action
• Energy Wave Visualization: Displays smart money signals as intuitive energy waves with varying sizes reflecting signal strength
• Strength Rating System: Quantifies signal strength on a 0-100% scale, with multiple visualization levels (10%+, 40%+, 60%+, 80%+)
• Candlestick Pattern Integration: Incorporates bullish/bearish candle formations to enhance signal reliability
• Volume Spike Detection: Identifies abnormal volume increases that often accompany smart money positioning
• Trend Context Analysis: Evaluates signals in relation to current market trend for higher probability setups
• Dynamic Strength Calculation: Uses a multi-factor model considering volume ratio, buying/selling imbalance, candle structure, and trend alignment
• Transparent Signal Labeling: Displays precise strength percentage values with each signal for clear decision-making
• Real-time Institutional Flow Monitor: Tracks the footprints of large players across both regulated (CME) and crypto exchange markets
─────────────────────────────────────
◆ Understanding Signal Types
■ Buy Signal Energy Waves (Green)
• Definition: Detected when significant buying pressure appears simultaneously on both CME and exchange futures, typically on bearish candles
• Visual Appearance: Green circular waves below price bars, with size/opacity increasing with signal strength
• Market Interpretation: Indicates institutional buying interest even as price is declining, often preceding bullish reversals
• Signal Strength Factors:
▶ Higher buying volume relative to selling volume
▶ Above-average total volume
▶ Lower wicks on bearish candles
▶ Appearance at key support levels
▶ Coinciding with oversold conditions
■ Sell Signal Energy Waves (Red)
• Definition: Detected when significant selling pressure appears simultaneously on both CME and exchange futures, typically on bullish candles
• Visual Appearance: Red circular waves above price bars, with size/opacity increasing with signal strength
• Market Interpretation: Indicates institutional selling interest even as price is rising, often preceding bearish reversals
• Signal Strength Factors:
▶ Higher selling volume relative to buying volume
▶ Above-average total volume
▶ Upper wicks on bullish candles
▶ Appearance at key resistance levels
▶ Coinciding with overbought conditions
─────────────────────────────────────
◆ Signal Strength Understanding
■ The Four Strength Levels
• Level 1 (10-39%): Initial Detection
▶ Visual: Smallest energy wave
▶ Meaning: Early smart money positioning detected
▶ Usage: Early warning, prepare for possible setup
• Level 2 (40-59%): Moderate Strength
▶ Visual: Medium-small energy wave
▶ Meaning: Clearer institutional positioning
▶ Usage: Begin position planning, watch for confirmation
• Level 3 (60-79%): Strong Signal
▶ Visual: Medium-large energy wave
▶ Meaning: Significant smart money footprint
▶ Usage: High-probability setup forming, consider entry
• Level 4 (80-100%): Exceptional Strength
▶ Visual: Largest energy wave
▶ Meaning: Powerful institutional movement confirmed
▶ Usage: Highest probability setup, strong conviction entry point
■ Understanding Signal Strength Calculation
• Volume Component (0-50 points):
▶ Measures how current volume compares to recent average
▶ Maximum points when volume is 2x or higher than average
• Buy/Sell Ratio Component (0-50 points):
▶ Measures imbalance between buying and selling pressure
▶ Maximum points when ratio exceeds predefined multiplier threshold
• Advanced Weighting Factors:
▶ Candle Structure: Body size, wick length, and orientation
▶ Trend Alignment: Signal relationship to current trend
▶ Volume Spike: Abnormal volume increase detection
▶ Cross-Market Confirmation: Strength of signal alignment between CME and exchange
─────────────────────────────────────
◆ Practical Trading Applications
■ Reversal Trading Strategy
• Buy Signal Application:
▶ Setup: Strong buy energy wave (60%+) on a bearish candle
▶ Entry: After confirmation candle following the signal
▶ Stop Loss: Below recent low or 1 ATR below entry
▶ Take Profit: Previous resistance or 1:2 risk-reward minimum
▶ Enhancers: Signal occurring at support zone, oversold conditions, or trend line tests
• Sell Signal Application:
▶ Setup: Strong sell energy wave (60%+) on a bullish candle
▶ Entry: After confirmation candle following the signal
▶ Stop Loss: Above recent high or 1 ATR above entry
▶ Take Profit: Previous support or 1:2 risk-reward minimum
▶ Enhancers: Signal occurring at resistance zone, overbought conditions, or trend line tests
■ Trend Continuation Strategy
• During Uptrends:
▶ Focus on buy signals that appear during pullbacks
▶ Higher probability when signals occur at key moving averages or support levels
▶ Enter on strength when price shows signs of resuming the uptrend
• During Downtrends:
▶ Focus on sell signals that appear during relief rallies
▶ Higher probability when signals occur at key moving averages or resistance levels
▶ Enter on strength when price shows signs of resuming the downtrend
■ Multiple Timeframe Approach
• Signal Confirmation Across Timeframes:
▶ Major signals on higher timeframes (4H, daily) provide strategic direction
▶ Signals on lower timeframes (15m, 1H) offer tactical entry points
▶ Highest probability setups occur when signals align across multiple timeframes
• Signal Clustering:
▶ Multiple signals in the same price area significantly increase probability
▶ Look for areas where both buy and sell signals have appeared, indicating battleground zones
▶ The most recent signal direction often wins these battles
─────────────────────────────────────
◆ Technical Foundation
■ Why Cross-Market Confirmation Matters
• Institutional Participation:
▶ CME Bitcoin futures are dominated by regulated institutional investors
▶ Crypto exchange futures include both retail and institutional players
▶ When both markets show the same smart money pattern, the signal reliability increases dramatically
• Market Inefficiency Exploitation:
▶ Large players often position across multiple venues to minimize market impact
▶ This coordinated activity creates detectable footprints when analyzed correctly
▶ Cross-market confirmation helps filter out market noise and isolate true smart money movements
■ Smart Volume Calculation Methodology
• Price-Volume Relationship Analysis:
▶ Uses candle structure to estimate buying vs. selling volume
▶ Buying volume = Total volume × (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
▶ Selling volume = Total volume × (High - Close) / (High - Low)
• Signal Triggering Logic:
▶ Buy signal: When buying volume exceeds selling volume by multiplier factor
▶ Sell signal: When selling volume exceeds buying volume by multiplier factor
▶ Both conditions must be met simultaneously on CME and exchange futures
• Advanced Pattern Recognition:
▶ Evaluates candle body-to-range ratio for signal quality
▶ Analyzes wick length and position for additional confirmation
▶ Considers recent highs/lows to detect potential turning points
─────────────────────────────────────

◆ Synergy with Other Indicators
• Support/Resistance Levels:
▶ Smart money signals occurring at key support/resistance significantly increase reliability
▶ Particularly powerful when signals appear at tested price levels
• Moving Averages:
▶ Signals near key moving averages (50MA, 200MA) often indicate institutional interest
▶ Moving average crosses combined with smart money signals create high-probability setups
• RSI/Momentum Indicators:
▶ Buy signals in oversold conditions increase probability of successful reversal
▶ Sell signals in overbought conditions increase probability of successful reversal
• Volume Profile:
▶ Signals occurring at high volume nodes often indicate significant turning points
▶ Low volume nodes between high volume areas can act as acceleration zones after signal triggers
• Market Structure:
▶ Smart money signals that break key market structure levels (higher highs/lows or lower highs/lows) are particularly significant
▶ Can signal the early stages of trend changes when aligned with structure breaks
─────────────────────────────────────
◆ Conclusion
The 52SIGNAL RECIPE CME-Exchange Smart Money Detector provides traders with a powerful edge by revealing institutional positioning across both regulated futures and crypto exchange markets. By requiring synchronized signals from both venues, it cuts through market noise to identify the most reliable smart money footprints.
What sets this indicator apart is its sophisticated cross-market verification system. Rather than relying on signals from a single market, it only triggers when both CME and exchange futures display the same smart money pattern simultaneously. This approach dramatically reduces false signals and highlights truly significant institutional activity.
The intuitive energy wave visualization system makes it easy to spot signals of varying strength, while the transparent percentage rating allows for objective assessment of each opportunity. By focusing on these dual-confirmed smart money movements, traders can position themselves alongside institutional players rather than against them.
Remember that the most powerful signals typically appear at key market junctures, often before significant price movements. By incorporating this indicator into your trading approach, you gain insight into institutional positioning that can help anticipate market direction with greater confidence.
─────────────────────────────────────
※ Disclaimer: Like all trading tools, the CME-Exchange Smart Money Detector should be used as a supplementary indicator and not relied upon exclusively for trading decisions. Past patterns of institutional behavior may not guarantee future market movements. Always employ appropriate risk management strategies in your trading.

Apex Edge - VantageApex Edge – Vantage
Quarter-Wick Reversal System | Price Action Based | Non-Repainting | Visual Confirmation Tool
Overview:
Apex Edge – Vantage is a precision price action indicator built to assist traders in identifying high-probability reversal entries — not based on indicators, but on how candles behave at their extremes.
This tool implements a clean, repeatable framework that reflects how I personally trade:
Spot a candle that closes with strong directional intent,
Then wait for a controlled pullback into the outer quarter,
And strike — only if price respects that line.
There’s no magic here — just raw, tactical logic visualized clearly on your chart. It's not designed to predict the market — it's built to respond when price offers you Vantage.
Core Logic:
Dot Detection – Final Quarter Close Candles
A green dot prints below a bullish candle if it closes within the top 25% of its wick-to-wick range.
A red dot prints above a bearish candle if it closes within the bottom 25% of its range.
These dots signify candles that made a strong, deliberate move in one direction — where price was pushed to an extreme and held that extreme into the close. These candles often signal institutional intent or momentum imbalance.
Entry Confirmation – Controlled Wick Rebalance
On the very next candle only, price must wick into the prior dot candle's outer quarter — but must not pass beyond it.
For buy entries, the wick must enter the bottom 25% of the previous green dot candle, but not dip below it.
For sell entries, the wick must reach into the top 25% of the red dot candle, but not exceed it.
This wick into the quarter is seen as a controlled rebalancing — a tactical reaction back into the origin zone before potential continuation.
Arrow Printing – Visual Entry Signal
Once the entry criteria are confirmed, an arrow is printed after the candle closes.
This arrow continues to print on each new candle as long as price does not violate the original entry zone — giving visual confirmation that the trade thesis is still valid.
If price breaks above/below the quarter range, the arrow disappears.
This ongoing confirmation is useful for staying in trades, managing risk, or spotting failed setups early.
Automatic Stop Loss Level
A horizontal Stop Loss line is drawn from the extreme wick of the original dot candle.
For buy entries, SL is placed below the green dot candle's low.
For sell entries, SL is placed above the red dot candle's high.
This provides immediate risk context — perfect for traders using limit orders or looking to scale in.
Coding Logic:
This script uses plotshape() and plot() functions for all visual elements.
Dot candles are identified using quarter-range logic via:
pinescript
Copy
Edit
close >= high - (high - low) * 0.25 // for bullish
close <= low + (high - low) * 0.25 // for bearish
Entry validation logic triggers only on the next candle, using:
pinescript
Copy
Edit
low >= quarterLine and low <= high // for buy entries
high <= quarterLine and high >= low // for sell entries
Arrows and SL lines are plotted only on closed candles, ensuring non-repainting behavior.
alertcondition() is used for real-time alerts on valid buy/sell triggers.
How I Personally Use It:
I wait for a dot to print — this shows directional conviction.
On the next candle, I watch for a tap into the outer quarter.
If the wick meets the criteria and the candle closes, I’ll execute manually at the close of that candle.
As long as the arrow remains on the chart, I know the setup hasn’t been invalidated.
I combine this with market structure, session timing, and liquidity context to build confluence around each trade.
Alerts Included:
Buy Entry Alert: When a green arrow prints (entry confirmed)
Sell Entry Alert: When a red arrow prints (entry confirmed)
These fire once per confirmed signal, allowing you to react in real-time or automate if desired.
Who This Is For:
Manual traders who want clean price-based entries
Anyone who uses market structure, SMC, or liquidity concepts
Traders looking to replace indicators with pure candle logic
Discretionary or semi-systematic traders who want visual tools to guide their decisions
Final Word
Apex Edge – Vantage doesn’t predict price — it shows you where price is offering you control.
This is a surgical tool designed to help you act only when the market gives you a measurable edge — and to stay in the trade as long as that edge holds.
If you're ready to stop chasing trades and start striking from a position of Vantage, then this tool belongs on your chart.
Z-Score Volume with CVD Clustering Script Title:
Z-Score Volume with CVD Clustering & NY VWAP
📘 Description:
This indicator combines statistical volume analysis with order flow confirmation to detect high-probability trade zones and volume-based divergences.
📌 Components:
Z-Score of Volume: Identifies statistically significant volume surges or drops relative to a moving average baseline.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD): Gauges net buying vs. selling pressure using high-frequency bid/ask delta.
K-Means Clustering: Applies clustering logic to classify each bar into:
Cluster 2 – Strong Bullish: Z-Score and CVD both strong
Cluster 1 – Divergence / Bull Trap: Z-Score high, but weak CVD
Cluster 0 – Neutral / Noise: No clear alignment
Anchored VWAP (NY Session Open): Confirms market structure and institutional trend bias from 9:30 AM ET forward.
🎯 Suggested Applications:
✅ 1. Trend Continuation Entries (Add-ons):
Look to add to positions when:
Cluster 2 signal occurs
Price is above the NY session VWAP
Price structure has broken out of prior day high/low or range
⚠️ 2. Divergence Detection (Fade Traps):
Cluster 1 signals a bearish divergence (e.g., high volume but weak CVD).
Especially useful when price is failing to stay above VWAP.
Useful for early exits or reversal setups.
📊 3. Volume Profile Confirmation:
Combine with fixed or session-based volume profile tools.
Use Z-Score clusters to confirm volume spikes into low-volume nodes (LVNs) or during imbalance transitions.
📍 4. VWAP Structure Confirmation:
Anchored VWAP acts as a dynamic reference point.
Helps confirm acceptance vs. rejection zones at key institutional levels.
📈 Visuals & Alerts:
Color-coded volume bars show intensity of Z-Score & CVD confluence
CVD Line plots real-time delta bias with green/red coloring
Cluster-based shape markers highlight key bars for actionable signals
Optional: Add alerts for Cluster 2 above VWAP or Cluster 1 below VWAP
⚙️ Customization Options:
Adjustable Z-Score length
Custom anchor timeframe for CVD (e.g., 1D or sessions)
Adjustable max lookback depth
Toggle VWAP inclusion
Extendable to include additional filters: RSI, structure break alerts, etc.
🔧 Ideal Use Cases:
NY session intraday traders (ES, NQ, CL, 6E, FX pairs)
Breakout traders wanting order flow confirmation
Mean reversion traders spotting fake moves
Volume-based scalpers looking for edge on short-term order imbalance
