Session Sweeps [LuxAlgo]The Session Sweeps indicator combines ICT-based features for a complete trading methodology involving market sessions, market structure, and fair value gaps to find optimal entry conditions for trading price action.
Traders frequently tend to place stop/limit orders at the high and low points of major trading sessions such as Asian (Tokyo), European (London), and North American (New York), resulting in the establishment of liquidity pools at those particular levels. The Session Sweeps indicator is crafted to recognize and underscore occurrences of session sweeps or liquidity sweeps during these major trading sessions.
🔶 USAGE
Default settings utilize major forex trading sessions, yet users can select their preferred opening and closing times, rename the sessions, or adjust the colors. It's important to note that the specified times for each session align with the respective local timezones: Asian (Tokyo) UTC+9, European (London) UTC, and North American (New York) UTC-5.
If the price briefly crosses either the highest or lowest point of a market session. These movements, aiming at triggering stop losses, suggest potential shifts in the market direction. Detecting such movements is the fundamental purpose and core functionality of the script.
🔹Market Structure Shifts
A Market Structure Shift refers to a change in market direction, either from an uptrend to a downtrend or vice versa. A part of a common entry model when using session sweeps is waiting for the formation of a CHoCH after a session sweep.
🔹Fair Value Gaps
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) holds particular appeal for price action traders, emerging when there are inefficiencies or imbalances in the market, often a result of uneven buying and selling activity. The underlying concept of FVGs is that the market tends to revisit these inefficiencies before resuming its trajectory in alignment with the initial impulsive move.
After the formation of a CHoCH traders can enter a position when the price enters the area of a Fair Value Gap (FVG).
🔹Setup Examples
This entry setup is commonly used by ICT traders and is shared for informational & educational purposes only.
Long Positions (5-Minute Timeframe):
Wait for the previous session's low to be swept.
Look for a Bullish Choch.
Find a Bullish FVG formed by or before the Choch.
Entry Point: At the FVG.
Take Profit (TP): At the session high or aim for a 1:2 Risk-Reward Ratio.
Stop Loss (SL): At the session low or nearest Swing Low.
Take partial profits at intermediate swings, but don’t shift SL prematurely.
Short Positions (5-Minute Timeframe):
Wait for the previous session's high to be swept.
Look for a Bearish Choch.
Find a FVG formed by or before the Choch.
Entry Point: At the FVG.
Take Profit (TP): At the previous session's low or aim for a 1:2 RR.
Stop Loss (SL): At the session high or nearest Swing High.
Take partial profits at intermediate swings, but don’t shift SL prematurely.

Trading BehnamI've read around here various definitions for engulfs along the lines of "an engulf consumes all orders at a level to allow price to easily pass through it." . That doesn't make much sense to me, if the guys with billions of dollars want to break a level, they will break it and price will run off very often. We've seen it time and time again, they don't need to engulf levels to give us a nice opportunity to get into the trade with them, if they want to blast through a level, they will do so and price will run off. If they want an opportunity to accumulate more orders before price runs away, then it doesn't make sense to engulf the level, better to let price bounce from that level and then fill more orders, if the level breaks then they have to deliberately stop the market running away and move it back to the pre-engulf area as the market momentum would naturally make it run off after an engulf. Other ideas about it being a secret signal between the institutions don't make sense to me either. To be honest, I think any secret signals between competing institutions come in the form of them in a heavily encrypted chatroom telling each other what to do. This collusion has been reported on previously as traders align their activities at important moments.
So I think we can all agree something along the lines of:
Fakeout:
Fakeout is an engulf of an obvious swing high/low in order to stop out traders and induce breakout traders to trade in the wrong direction, thus generating liquidity for the move in the opposite direction.
What's not so clear is the definition of the engulf, I'd like to try to give some ideas on the purpose of the engulf and it's definition and see what others think.
Engulf:
An engulf is the consumption of orders at an important level, not necessarily a swing/high low but an area where we expect to see supply or demand. Taking out of the orders tells us that the supply or demand which was or should have been present is now not present and tells us the intent direction of the market. If price runs off as is often the case, this is not tradeable and is effectively just a "breakout", although breakouts are usually considered to be breaks of swing high and lows which are obvious to the average trader. For an engulf to be tradeable there must be a retrace following the engulf back in the original direction. This adds confusion as it initially resembles a fakeout. So the question is, why does price retrace after the engulf? If an engulf to the short side is a genuine engulf and not a fakeout to generate long liquidity, why does it not travel immediately south if market momentum is ultimately south.
A small pocket of demand beneath the engulfed level may make it retrace north as price moves between areas of liquidity, this pocket of demand may give price enough momentum to make it back up to the supply which broke the demand level if key market participants do not favour an immediate market drop.
Alternatively key market participants may step in and drive the market back upwards.
Price moving north back to supply after the engulf may occur or be favourable for various reasons:
1) We often talk about FO generating liquidity because of breakout trading, but an engulf can also generate liquidity from breakout traders. Short breakout traders would place their stop losses a small distance above the engulf (breakout). If key players absorb this selling or allow a demand level to push price back up, they can run price back up to supply taking out the stops of the breakout short traders and make quick profit and/or generate more liquidity for their own shorts.
2) To confuse traders, the ITs don't want the puzzle that is Forex to be easy to solve, if price never retraced after an engulf then engulfs of all levels would be FOs. Price would either break and immediately runoff or it would turn and runoff in the other direction. In order to keep people confused about whether price is faking out or breaking out, sometimes price should whipsaw by breaking out, briefly faking out and then continuing in the direction of the breakout. This whipsaw pattern is to us a tradeable engulf.
3) Market momentum may be mixed, key players are indecisive or inactive or the market is behaving erratically.
4) As previously mentioned there may be a small pocket of supply/demand just past the engulf which is causing a reaction. This could also be viewed as a FO on a different timeframe. If the market engulfs an H1 demand level, then retraces for 30 mins upwards to supply, this engulf would be a valid and very profitable FO for an M1 trader looking to get long.

Altcoin Relative Macro StrengthAltcoin Relative Macro Strength
Overview
The Altcoin Relative Macro Strength indicator measures the altcoin market's price performance relative to global macroeconomic conditions. By comparing TOTAL3ES (total altcoin market capitalization excluding Bitcoin, Ethereum and stable coins) against a composite macro trend, the indicator identifies periods of relative overvaluation and undervaluation.
Methodology
Global Macro Trend Calculation:
The macro trend synthesizes three primary components:
- ISM PMI – A proxy for the business cycle phase
- Global Liquidity – An aggregate measure of major central bank balance sheets and broad money supply
- IWM (Russell 2000) – Small-cap equity exposure, reflecting risk-on/risk-off market sentiment
Global Liquidity is calculated as:
Fed Balance Sheet - Reverse Repo - Treasury General Account + U.S. M2 + China M2
The final Global Macro Trend is:
ISM PMI × Global Liquidity × IWM
Theoretical Framework:
The global macro trend integrates liquidity expansion/contraction with business cycle dynamics and small-cap equity performance. The inclusion of IWM reflects altcoins' tendency to behave as high-beta risk assets, exhibiting sensitivity similar to small-cap equities. This composite exhibits strong directional correlation with altcoin market movements, capturing the risk-on/risk-off dynamics that drive altcoin performance.
Interpretation
Primary Signal:
The histogram displays the rolling percentage change of TOTAL3ES relative to the global macro trend (default: 21-period average). Positive divergence indicates altcoins are outperforming macro conditions; negative divergence suggests underperformance relative to the underlying economic and risk environment.
Data Tables:
Alts/Macro Change – Percentage deviation of the altcoin market's average value from the Global Macro Trend's average over the specified period
Macro Trend – Directional assessment of the macro trend based on slope and trend agreement:
🔵 BULLISH ▲ – Positive slope with upward trend
⚪ NEUTRAL → – Slope and trend direction disagree
🟣 BEARISH ▼ – Negative slope with downward trend
Macro Slope – Percentage rate of change in the global macro trend
Altcoin Valuation – Relative valuation category based on TOTAL3/Macro deviation:
🟢 Extreme Discount / Deep Discount / Discount
🟡 Fair Value
🔴 Premium / Large Premium / Extreme Premium
TOTAL3ES Mcap – Current total altcoin market capitalization (in billions)
Visual Components:
📊 Histogram: Alts/Macro Change
🟢 Green = Positive deviation (altcoins outperforming)
🔴 Red = Negative deviation (altcoins underperforming)
📈 Macro Slope Line
Color-coded to match trend assessment
Scaled for visibility (adjustable in settings)
Application
This indicator is designed to identify mean reversion opportunities by highlighting periods when the altcoin market materially diverges from fundamental macro and risk conditions. Extreme positive values may indicate overvaluation; extreme negative values may signal undervaluation relative to the prevailing economic and risk appetite backdrop.
Strategy Considerations:
- Identify extremes: Look for periods when the histogram reaches elevated positive or negative levels
- Assess valuation: Use the Altcoin Valuation reading to gauge relative over/undervaluation
Confirm with risk sentiment: Check whether macro conditions and risk appetite support or contradict current price levels
- Mean reversion: Consider that significant deviations from trend historically tend to revert
Note: This indicator identifies relative valuation based on macro conditions and risk sentiment—it does not predict price direction or timing.
Settings
Lookback Period – 21 bars (default) – Number of bars for calculating rolling averages
Macro Slope Scale – 3.0 (default) – Multiplier for macro slope line visibility

KENW Liq Sweep 17This indicator is designed to alert on potential liquidity sweep events:
- In uptrends, it tracks Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) by marking swing lows that occur during negative MACD histogram periods. It generates a long entry alert when price makes a lower low in SSL (i.e., the most recent SSL level is below the prior one), suggesting a sweep of sell-side liquidity before a potential bullish continuation.
- In downtrends, it tracks Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) by marking swing highs that occur during positive MACD histogram periods. It generates a short entry alert when price makes a higher high in BSL (i.e., the most recent BSL level is above the prior one), indicating a sweep of buy-side liquidity before a potential bearish continuation.
XAUUSD Macro Anomaly Pulses (Chart XAU) - sudoXAUUSD Macro Anomaly Pulses
A simple pulse indicator that highlights when XAUUSD moves in a way that macro conditions cannot fully explain
Overview
This indicator marks candles on XAUUSD that behave differently than what the broader market suggests should happen.
Instead of looking at XAUUSD alone, this tool compares gold’s actual movement to an expected movement based on:
Other gold cross pairs (XAUJPY, XAUAUD, XAUCHF)
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), inverted
The US30 index (Dow Jones)
When XAUUSD moves much stronger or weaker than this macro-based expectation, the indicator plots a small pulse (a circle) directly on the candle.
Purpose
This indicator helps you quickly see when a candle on XAUUSD is acting “out of character” compared to normal macro flow. In other words:
“Did XAUUSD move in a way that makes sense with the rest of the market, or did something weird happen?”
These unusual moves often signal:
Liquidity grabs
Stop hunts
News-driven spikes
False breakouts
Front-running of macro shifts
How It Works
It reads the XAUUSD candles directly from the chart.
This ensures pulses stick to your candles correctly.
It pulls data from basket legs (XAUJPY, XAUAUD, XAUCHF) and macro symbols (DXY, US30) using security calls.
It converts each symbol into a simple % return per candle.
It builds an “expected” gold move using weighted inputs:
Average return of gold crosses
Inverse return of DXY
Return of US30
It calculates the “residual,” which means:
actual XAU return - expected macro return
It turns that into a Z-score to measure how extreme the deviation is.
If the Z-score is too high or too low, the script marks the candle:
Aqua pulse below bar = unusually strong move
Fuchsia pulse above bar = unusually weak move
How to Interpret the Pulses
Aqua Pulse (below candle) – Bullish anomaly
XAUUSD moved stronger than the macro environment suggests.
Meaning:
-Possible liquidity grab upward
-Possible early trend move
-Possible false breakout
-Price may be overreacting
Fuchsia Pulse (above candle) – Bearish anomaly
XAUUSD moved weaker than expected.
Meaning:
-Possible liquidity sweep downward
-Possible aggressive sell-side event
-Possible exhaustion
-Price may be taking liquidity before reversing
Typical Use Cases
-Spot moments when gold acts independently of macro
-Identify candles that might signal a reversal or a trap
-Confirm whether a breakout is real or suspicious
-Filter trades by macro alignment
-Help understand when XAUUSD is reacting to news or liquidity instead of fundamentals
Inputs Explained
- Z-score Lookback – How many candles are considered normal behavior
- Z-threshold – How extreme a move must be before it is marked
- Basket / DXY / US30 weights – How much influence each macro component has
MSSM – Multi-Session Structural Map (Precision Sweeps)MSSM – Multi-Session Structural Map (Precision Sweeps)
This indicator provides a structured view of the market based on four key components:
1). Previous session levels
2). Confirmed fractal swing points
3). Volume pocket highlights
4). Non-repainting precision liquidity sweep markers
It is designed to help analyze how price interacts with important reference areas and structural points. This tool does not generate signals or predictions. All information is visual and educational only.
HOW THE INDICATOR WORKS
PREVIOUS SESSION LEVELS
The script plots the previous session’s High, Low, and Mid. These levels help observe how the current session behaves around the prior day’s range. They act as reference areas only.
FRACTAL SWING MAP (NON-REPAINTING)
Confirmed fractals are used to mark historical swing highs and swing lows. Since fractals confirm after a certain number of bars, the swings do not repaint once formed. These swings provide a clearer view of market structure.
VOLUME POCKETS
The indicator highlights areas where volume expands relative to a rolling volume average. These regions show increased participation or activity. The highlights are informational and do not imply direction.
PRECISION LIQUIDITY SWEEPS (NON-REPAINTING)
A sweep is tagged only when:
• Price trades beyond a confirmed swing high or swing low
• Price closes back inside the previous swing level
• A wick rejection occurs
• Volume expands relative to a recent rolling average
These markers simply show where price interacted with liquidity around prior structural levels. They do not indicate a trading signal or bias.
HOW TO ADD THE INDICATOR
Open the Pine Editor in TradingView
Search the indicator name and add to favorites.
Click “Add to chart”
Adjust settings as needed (fractals, sweeps, volume pockets, or session levels)
HOW TO READ AND USE THE INDICATOR
SESSION LEVELS
Observe whether price respects, rejects, compresses around, or expands beyond the previous session high, low, or midpoint. These are observational reference levels only.
FRACTALS
Fractal highs and lows help visualize structural turning points. They provide a clearer picture of where liquidity may rest above or below past swing levels.
VOLUME POCKETS
When volume expands compared to the recent average, the candle is shaded. These areas may show increased participation, but no directional meaning is implied.
PRECISION SWEEPS
Sweeps highlight when price reaches beyond a prior confirmed swing level and then rejects that area with displacement. These markers identify interactions with liquidity, but they are not signals and do not forecast future outcomes.
CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS
Users can adjust:
• Session level visibility
• Fractal sensitivity
• Volume pocket threshold
• Sweep sensitivity and visibility
• Transparency and styling
This makes the tool flexible across different symbols and timeframes.
IMPORTANT NOTES AND POLICY COMPLIANCE
• The indicator does not provide buy or sell signals
• The indicator does not predict price or direction
• All plotted elements are based on past price behavior
• All components are informational only
• Users should perform their own analysis and risk evaluation
• Past behavior does not guarantee future performance
SUMMARY
MSSM provides a structured view of price by combining previous session levels, confirmed swing structure, volume expansion zones, and non-repainting sweep identification. Its purpose is to assist traders in visually analyzing market structure while staying fully aligned with TradingView’s House Rules and content policies.
IDWM Master StructureExecutive Summary
The IDWM Master Structure is a Multi-Timeframe (MTF) trading tool designed to force discipline by aligning traders with the "Parent" trend. It functions by locking onto the "Completed Auction" of a higher timeframe candle (like a Daily or Weekly bar) and projecting that structure onto your lower timeframe chart. Its primary goal is to define the "Dealing Range"—the hard boundaries where value was previously established—so you don't get lost in the noise of smaller price movements.
1. The Principle of Completed Auctions (Hierarchy)
Most technical indicators curve dynamically with every price tick. This script acts differently because it relies on "Settled Arguments." A closed Daily candle represents a finished battle between buyers and sellers; the High and Low are the historical results of that battle.
To enforce this, the script automatically selects a "Parent" timeframe based on your view:
Scalping (charts below 15 minutes) uses the 4-Hour Auction.
Intraday trading (15 minutes to 4 Hours) uses the Daily Auction.
Swing trading (Daily chart) uses the Weekly Auction.
2. Liquidity Pools & The Sticky Range
The High and Low lines drawn by the indicator are not just support and resistance; they represent Liquidity Pools. In market theory, stop-losses (Sell Stops below Lows, Buy Stops above Highs) accumulate at these edges.
Smart money often pushes price just past these lines to grab this liquidity (a "Stop Hunt") before reversing direction. To account for this, the script uses a "Sticky Range" mechanism. It refuses to redraw the box simply because price touched the line. Instead, it uses an Average True Range (ATR) Buffer. A new structure is only formed if the candle closes decisively outside the range plus this volatility buffer. This ensures you are trading real breakouts, not liquidity sweeps.
3. Internal Range Mechanics (Premium vs. Discount)
Inside the Master Box, the script applies Equilibrium Theory to help with trade location.
The most important internal line is the Equilibrium (EQ), which marks the exact 50% point of the range.
Premium Zone (Above EQ): Price is mathematically "expensive" relative to the recent range. Algorithms generally look to establish Short positions here.
Discount Zone (Below EQ): Price is considered "cheap." Algorithms generally look to establish Long positions here.
It also plots the Master Open, which acts as a "Line in the Sand." If price is currently trading above the Master Open, the higher timeframe candle is Green (Bullish), suggesting longs have a higher probability. If below, the candle is Red (Bearish).
4. Wick Theory (Failed Auctions)
The script places special emphasis on the wicks of the Master Candle because a wick represents a "Failed Auction"—a price level the market tried to explore but ultimately rejected.
The indicator highlights the background of the wick area (from the High to the Body). On a retest, these zones often act as supply or demand blocks because the market remembers the previous failure.
It also calculates the "Consequent Encroachment," which is the 50% midpoint of the wick. The rule of thumb here is that if a candle body can close past 50% of a wick, the rejection is nullified, and price will likely travel to fill the entire wick.
5. Energy Expansion (Breakout Targets)
Market energy transfers from Consolidation (inside the box) to Expansion (the breakout). When the price finally breaks the "Sticky Range" (confirming via the ATR buffer), the script projects where that energy will go.
It uses the height of the previous range to calculate Fibonacci extensions. Specifically, it targets the 1.618 Extension, often called the "Golden Ratio." This is a statistically significant level where expansion moves tend to exhaust themselves and reverse.
6. Safety Protocol: Live Detection
A dashboard monitors the state of the parent candle. If the text turns Magenta with a warning symbol, it means the Higher Timeframe candle is "Live" (still forming).
Trading off a live structure is considered higher risk because the "Auction" isn't finished—the High or Low can still shift. The safest approach is to trade when the dashboard indicates a standard, locked, historical structure.
VB-MainLiteVB-MainLite – v1.0 Initial Release
Overview
VB-MainLite is a consolidated market-structure and execution framework designed to streamline decision-making into a single chart-level view. The script combines multi-timeframe trend, volatility, volume, and liquidity signals into one cohesive visual layer, reducing indicator clutter while preserving depth of information for active traders.
Core Architecture
Trend Backbone – EMA 200
Dedicated EMA 200 acts as the primary trend filter and higher-timeframe bias reference.
Serves as the “spine” of the system for contextualizing all secondary signals (swings, reversals, volume events, etc.).
Custom MA Suite (Envelope Ready)
Four configurable moving averages with flexible source, length, and smoothing.
Default configuration (preset idea: “8/89 Envelope”):
MA #1: EMA 8 on high
MA #2: EMA 8 on low
MA #3: EMA 89 on high
MA #4: EMA 89 on low
All four are disabled by default to keep the chart minimal. Users can toggle them on from the Custom MAs group for envelope or cloud-style configurations.
Nadaraya–Watson Smoother (Swing Framework)
Gaussian-kernel Nadaraya–Watson regression applied to price (hl2) to build a smooth synthetic curve.
Two layers of functionality:
Swing labels (▲ / ▼) at inflection points in the smoothed curve.
Optional curve line that visually tracks the turning structure over the last ~500 bars.
Designed to surface early swing potential before standard MAs react.
Hull Moving Average (Trend Overlay)
Optional Hull MA (HMA) for faster trend visualization.
Color-coded by slope (buy/sell bias).
Default: off to prevent overloading the chart; can be enabled under Hull MA settings.
Momentum, Exhaustion & Pattern Engine
CCI-Based Bar Coloring
CCI applied to close with configurable thresholds.
Overbought / oversold CCI zones map directly into candle coloring to visually highlight short-term momentum extremes.
RSI Top / Bottom Exhaustion Finder
RSI logic applied separately to high-driven (tops) and low-driven (bottoms) sequences.
Plots:
Top arrows where high-side RSI stretches into high-risk territory.
Bottom arrows where low-side RSI indicates exhaustion on the downside.
Useful as confluence around the Nadaraya swing turns and EMA 200 regime.
Engulfing + MA Trend Engine (“Fat Bull / Fat Bear”)
Detects bullish and bearish engulfing patterns, then combines them with MA trend cross logic.
Only when both pattern and MA regime align does the engine flag:
Fat Bull (Engulf + MA aligned long)
Fat Bear (Engulf + MA aligned short)
Candles are marked via conditional barcolor to highlight strong, structured shifts in control.
Fat Finger Detection (Wick Spikes / Stop Runs)
Identifies abnormal wick extensions relative to the prior bar’s body range with configurable tolerance.
Supports detection of potential liquidity grabs, stop runs, or “excess” that may precede reversals or mean-reversion behavior.
Volume & Liquidity Intelligence
Bull Snort (Aggressive Buy Spikes)
Flags events where:
Volume is significantly above the 50-period average, and
Price closes in the upper portion of the bar and above prior close.
Plots a labeled marker below the bar to indicate aggressive upside initiative by buyers.
Pocket Pivots (Accumulation Flags)
Compares current volume vs prior 10 sessions with a filter on prior “up” days.
Highlights pocket pivot days where current green candle volume outclasses recent down-day volumes, suggesting stealth accumulation.
Delta Volume Core (Directional Volume by Price)
Internal volume-by-price style engine over a user-defined lookback.
Splits volume into up-close and down-close buckets across dynamic price bins.
Feeds into S&R and ICT zone logic to quantify where buying vs selling pressure built up.
Structural Context: S&R and ICT Zones
S&R Power Channel
Computes local high/low band over a configurable lookback window.
Renders:
Upper and lower S&R channel lines.
Shaded support / resistance zones using boxes.
Adds Buy Power / Sell Power metrics based on the ratio of up vs down bars inside the window, displayed directly in the zone overlays.
Drops ◈ markers where price interacts dynamically with the top or bottom band, highlighting reaction points.
ICT-Style Premium / Discount & Macro Zones
Two tiered structures:
Local Premium / Discount zones over a shorter SR window.
Macro Premium / Discount zones over a longer macro window.
Each zone:
Uses underlying directional volume to annotate accumulation vs distribution bias.
Provides Delta Volume Bias shading in the mid-band region, visually encoding whether local power flows are net-buying or net-selling.
Enables traders to quickly see whether current trade location is in a local/macro discount or premium context while still respecting volume profile.
Positioning Intelligence: PCD (Stocks)
Position Cost Distribution (PCD) – Stocks Only
Available for stock symbols on intraday up to daily timeframe (≤ 1D).
Uses:
TOTAL_SHARES_OUTSTANDING fundamentals,
Daily OHLCV snapshot, and
A bucketed distribution engine
to approximate cost basis distribution across price.
Outputs:
Horizontal “PCD bars” to the right of current price, density-scaled by estimated share concentration.
Color-coding by profitability relative to current price (profitable vs unprofitable positions).
Labels for:
Current price
Average cost
Profit ratio (share % below current price)
90% cost range
70% cost range
Range overlap as a measure of clustering / concentration.
Multi-Timeframe Trend: Two-Pole Gaussian Dashboard
Two-Pole Gaussian Filter (Line + Cloud)
Smooths a user-selected source (default: close) using a two-pole Gaussian filter with tunable alpha.
Plots:
A thin Gaussian trend line, and
A thick Gaussian “cloud” line with transparency, colored by slope vs past (offsetG).
Functions as a responsive trend backbone that is more sensitive than EMA 200 but less noisy than raw price.
Multi-Timeframe Gaussian Dashboard
Evaluates Gaussian trend direction across up to six timeframes (e.g., 1H / 2H / 4H / Daily / Weekly).
Renders a compact bottom-right table:
Header: symbol + overall bias arrow (up / down) based on average trend alignment.
Row of colored cells per timeframe (green for uptrend, magenta for downtrend) with human-readable TF labels (e.g., “60M”, “4H”, “1D”).
Gives an immediate read on whether intraday, swing, and higher-timeframe flows are aligned or fragmented.
Default Configuration & Usage Guidance
Default state after adding the script:
Enabled by default:
EMA 200 trend backbone
Nadaraya–Watson swing labels and curve
CCI bar coloring
RSI top/bottom arrows
Fat Bull / Fat Bear engine
Bull Snort & Pocket Pivots
S&R Power Channel
ICT Local + Macro zones
Two-pole Gaussian line + cloud + dashboard
PCD engine for stocks (auto-active where data is available)
Disabled by default (opt-in):
Custom MA suite (4x MAs, preset as EMA 8/8/89/89)
Hull MA overlay
How traders can use VB-MainLite in practice:
Use EMA 200 + Gaussian dashboard to define top-down directional bias and avoid trading directly against multi-TF trend.
Use Nadaraya swing labels, RSI exhaustion arrows, and CCI bar colors to time entries within that higher-timeframe bias.
Use Fat Bull / Fat Bear events as structured confirmation that both pattern and MA regime have flipped in the same direction.
Use Bull Snort, Pocket Pivots, and S&R / ICT zones to align execution with liquidity, volume, and location (premium vs discount).
On stocks, use PCD as a positioning map to understand trapped supply, support zones near crowded cost basis, and where profit-taking is likely.
Macros+AMD [NW]Macros + AMD - Daily & Weekly Time-Based Analysis
Multi-timeframe AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution) visualization with ICT Macro timing windows for time-based market analysis.
Overview
This indicator visualizes the AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution) framework on both daily and weekly timeframes, combined with ICT Macro timing windows. It is designed as an educational tool to help traders study time-based market structure and algorithmic price delivery concepts.
The AMD model is based on the idea that markets move through distinct phases within each trading period:
Accumulation (A) - Initial range formation, liquidity building
Manipulation (M) - False moves to trap traders, liquidity sweeps
Distribution (D) - True directional move, price delivery to targets
What This Indicator Displays
Daily AMD Phases
Displays the intraday AMD cycle based on New York trading hours:
A Phase (Blue): 4:00 AM - 8:35 AM EST — Morning accumulation, Asian/London overlap
M Phase (Red): 8:35 AM - 11:25 AM EST — NY session manipulation, news events
D Phase (Green): 11:25 AM - 4:00 PM EST — Afternoon distribution and price delivery
Weekly AMD Phases
Displays the weekly AMD cycle from Monday to Monday:
A Phase: Monday 00:00 - Tuesday 21:56 EST — Weekly high/low formation begins
M Phase: Tuesday 21:56 - Thursday 02:04 EST — Mid-week reversal zone
D Phase: Thursday 02:04 - Monday 00:00 EST — Weekly price delivery
Inner M Phase Fibs
When enabled, subdivides the M (Manipulation) phase using Fibonacci levels:
0.382 level — Inner accumulation ends
0.500 level — Mid-point of manipulation
0.618 level — Inner distribution begins
This helps identify potential reversal points within the manipulation phase.
ICT Macro Windows
Horizontal lines marking the XX:42 to XX:15 macro periods (33-minute windows):
2:42 - 3:15 AM
3:42 - 4:15 AM (London)
7:42 - 8:15 AM
8:42 - 9:15 AM
9:42 - 10:15 AM (Prime AM session)
10:42 - 11:15 AM
11:42 - 12:15 PM
12:42 - 1:15 PM
1:42 - 2:15 PM
2:42 - 3:15 PM
These windows represent times when algorithmic price delivery is more likely to occur.
How To Use
Understanding the AMD Framework
During the A Phase:
Observe range formation and initial liquidity pools
Note the high and low established during this phase
Wait for manipulation before committing to direction
During the M Phase:
Watch for false breakouts and stop hunts
Look for reversal patterns after liquidity sweeps
The inner fibs (0.382, 0.5, 0.618) can help time entries within this phase
Mid-week (Wednesday) often sees key reversals on weekly AMD
During the D Phase:
This is typically when the true move occurs
Price tends to deliver toward draw on liquidity targets
The direction is often opposite to the manipulation move
Using the Macro Windows
The XX:42 to XX:15 windows are times to pay attention to price action:
These 33-minute periods often see increased algorithmic activity
Look for displacement, fair value gaps, or order blocks forming
The 9:42-10:15 AM window is considered particularly significant for NY session
Weekly Day Labels
Monday/Tuesday: "H/L of Week" — Watch for weekly high or low formation
Wednesday: "Reversal Day" — Mid-week reversal probability increases
Thursday/Friday: "Reversal Day" — Continuation or secondary reversal

Simulateur Carnet d'Ordres & Liquidité [Sese] - Custom🔹 Indicator Name
Order Book & Liquidity Simulator - Custom
🔹 Concept and Functionality
This indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to visually simulate market depth (Order Book) and potential liquidity zones.
It is important to adhere to TradingView's transparency rules: This script does not access real Level 2 data (the actual exchange order book). Instead, it uses a deductive algorithm based on historical Price Action to estimate where Buy Limit (Bid) and Sell Limit (Ask) orders might be resting.
Methodology used by the script:
Pivot Detection: The indicator scans for significant Swing Highs and Swing Lows over a user-defined lookback period (Length).
Level Projection: These pivots are projected to the right as horizontal lines.
Red Lines (Ask): Represent potential resistance zones (sellers).
Blue Lines (Bid): Represent potential support zones (buyers).
Liquidity Management (Absorption): The script is dynamic. If the current price crosses a line, the indicator assumes the liquidity at that level has been consumed (orders filled). The line is then automatically deleted from the chart.
Density Profile (Right Side): Horizontal bars appear to the right of the current price. These approximate a "Time Price Opportunity" or Volume Profile, showing where the market has spent the most time recently.
🔹 User Manual (Settings)
Here is how to configure the inputs to match your trading style:
1. Detection Algorithm
Lookback Length (Candles): Determines the sensitivity of the pivots.
Low value (e.g., 10): Shows many lines (scalping/short term).
High value (e.g., 50): Shows only major structural levels (swing trading).
Volume Factor: (Technical note: In this specific code version, this variable is calculated but the lines are primarily drawn based on geometric pivots).
2. Visual Settings
Show Price Lines (Bid/Ask): Toggles the horizontal Support/Resistance lines on or off.
Show Volume Profile: Toggles the heatmap-style bars on the right side of the chart.
Extend Lines: If checked, untouched lines will extend to the right towards the current price bar.
3. Colors and Transparency Management
Customize the aesthetics to keep your chart clean:
Bid / Ask Colors: Choose your base colors (Default is Blue and Red).
Line Transparency (%): Crucial for chart visibility.
0% = Solid, bright colors.
80-90% = Very subtle, faint lines (recommended if you overlay this on other tools).
Text Size: Adjusts the size of the price labels ("BUY LIMIT" / "SELL LIMIT").
🔹 How to Read the Indicator
Rejections: Unbroken lines act as potential walls. Watch for price reaction when approaching a blue line (support) or red line (resistance).
Breakouts/Absorption: When a line disappears, it means the level has been breached. The market may then seek the next liquidity level (the next line).
Density (Right-side boxes): More opaque/visible boxes indicate a price zone "accepted" by the market (consolidation). Empty gaps suggest an imbalance where price might move through quickly.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This script is for educational and technical analysis purposes only. It is a simulation based on price history, not real-time order book data. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Trading involves risk.
TJR Bogdan Pro (Cleaned)This indicator is designed to automate the "Bogdan" scalping strategy popularized by TJR Trades. It simplifies complex ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts into a visual, easy-to-read "Traffic Light" system.
Instead of guessing where the market is going, this tool helps you identify the specific narrative of Liquidity Sweeps (Turtle Soup) followed by a Change of Character (CHoCH).
It answers the three most important questions in trading:
1. Where do I look? (Key Levels)
2. When do I act? (Liquidity Grab + Structure Shift)
3. Where do I enter? (Fair Value Gap)
How to Trade This Indicator
This script is best used on the 5-Minute Timeframe. It automatically pulls Higher Timeframe (HTF) levels onto your chart so you don't have to draw them manually.
The 4-Step "Sniper" Sequence
1. The Battlefield (Wait for the Level)
* The script plots the Previous Daily High/Low (PDH/PDL) and 4H High/Low as dashed lines.
* Rule: Do not trade in the middle of nowhere. Wait for the price to touch a dashed line (The Magnet).
2. The Trap (Wait for the "X")
* Symbol: Green X (Bullish) or Red X (Bearish).
* What it means: This is a Liquidity Sweep (or "Grab"). The price poked through a key level to trap traders, but the candle closed back inside. This is your warning that a reversal might happen.
3. The U-Turn (Wait for the Triangle)
* Symbol: Blue ▲ (Bullish) or Orange ▼ (Bearish).
* What it means: This is a CHoCH (Change of Character). The price has broken the recent structure, confirming that the trend has flipped direction.
4. The Entry (Wait for the Box)
* Symbol: Blue Box (Buy Zone) or Orange Box (Sell Zone).
* What it means: This is a Fair Value Gap (FVG).
* Action: Don't chase the price! Wait for the candle to dip back into the Colored Box. Place your entry there with a Stop Loss below the recent low.

ORB + Fair Value Gaps (FVG/iFVG) Suite with Daily 50% MidlineA complete smart-money–focused price-action toolkit combining the New York Open Range Breakout (ORB), ICT-style Fair Value Gaps, Inverted FVGs, and a dynamic Daily 50% Midline.
Designed for traders who want a clean, fast, and highly visual way to track liquidity, imbalances, and intraday directional bias.
📌 Key Features
1. NY Session ORB (09:30–09:45 New York Time)
Automatically plots:
ORB High
ORB Low
Labels for ORB high/low
Optional 5-minute chart restriction
Lines extend forward for easy reference
Used to identify breakout conditions, liquidity sweeps, and directional bias into the morning session.
📌 2. ICT-Style Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
Full automated detection of bullish & bearish FVGs based on the classic 3-candle displacement structure:
Bullish FVG: high < low
Bearish FVG: low > high
Each FVG is drawn as a box with:
Custom colour
Custom border style (solid, dashed, dotted)
Automatic extension to the right until filled
Optional size text showing the gap in points (font size/colour adjustable)
Adjustable max lookback for performance
📌 3. Inverted FVGs (iFVGs)
Once price fully fills an FVG, it automatically becomes an iFVG, shown with:
Custom iFVG colour
Custom border style
Extension to the right
Once price trades through the zone from the opposite side, the iFVG is considered “consumed” and:
It stops extending
And optionally auto-deletes based on user settings
This makes it easy to track meaningful imbalances that turn into liquidity pockets.
📌 4. “Show Only After ORB” Filter
Optionally hide all FVGs/iFVGs formed before the ORB completes.
This is especially useful for intraday strategies focused on NY session structure only.
📌 5. Daily 50% Midline (OHLC Midpoint)

(CRT) MTF Candle Range Theory Model# 🚀 **CASH Pro MTF – Candle Range Theory (CRT) Indicator**
**The Smart Money ICT Setup Detector** 🔥
Hey Traders!
Here is the **ultimate Pine Script indicator** that automatically detects one of the most powerful Smart Money / ICT setups: **Candle Range Theory (CRT)**
---
### What is Candle Range Theory – CRT?
**CRT** is a high-probability price action model based on **liquidity grabs** and **range expansion**.
Price loves to:
1️⃣ Raid the low/high of the previous candle (take stop-losses)
2️⃣ Then reverse and run to the opposite side of the range (or beyond)
When this happens near a **key higher-timeframe level**, magic happens!
### Bullish CRT Model
- Price touches a **strong HTF support**
- Previous candle closes near that support
- Next candle **sweeps the low** (grabs liquidity)
- Current candle **closes above the raided low AND breaks the high** of the sweep candle
**Result → Aggressive bullish move expected!**
**Entry:** On close above the high (or on retest + MSS)
**Stop Loss:** Below the swept low
**Take Profit:** CRT High or next liquidity pool
### Bearish CRT Model
- Price touches a **strong HTF resistance**
- Previous candle closes near resistance
- Next candle **sweeps the high** (grabs buy stops)
- Current candle **closes below the raided high AND breaks the low** of the sweep candle
**Result → Strong bearish expansion!**
**Entry:** On close below the low
**Stop Loss:** Above the swept high
**Take Profit:** CRT Low or next downside liquidity
This whole setup can form in **just 3 candles**… or sometimes more if price consolidates after the sweep.

🔥 SMC Reversal Engine v3.5 – Clean FVG + DashboardSMC Reversal Engine v3.5 – Clean FVG + Dashboard
The SMC Reversal Engine is a precision-built Smart Money Concepts tool designed to help traders understand market structure the single most important foundation in reading price action. It reveals how institutions move liquidity, where structure shifts occur, and how Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) align with these changes to signal potential reversals or continuations.
Understanding How It Works
At its core, the script detects CHoCH (Change of Character) and BOS (Break of Structure)—the two key turning points in institutional order flow. A CHoCH shows that the market has reversed intent (for example, from bearish to bullish), while a BOS confirms a continuation of the current trend. Together, they form the backbone of structure-based trading.
To refine this logic, the engine uses fractal pivots clusters of candles that confirm swing highs and lows. Fractals filter out noise, identifying points where price truly changes direction. The script lets you set this sensitivity manually or automatically adapts it depending on the timeframe. Lower fractal sensitivity captures smaller intraday swings for scalpers, while higher sensitivity locks onto major swing structures for swing and position traders.
The dashboard gives you a real-time reading of the trend, the last high and low, and what the market is likely to do next—for example, “Expect HL” or “Wait for LH.” It even tracks the accuracy of these structure predictions over time, giving an educational feedback loop to help you learn price behavior.
Fair Value Gaps and Tap Entries
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) mark moments when price moves too quickly, leaving inefficiencies that institutions often revisit. When price taps into an FVG, it often acts as a high-probability entry zone for reversals or continuations. The script automatically detects, extends, and deletes old FVGs, keeping only relevant zones visible for a clean chart.
Traders can enable markTapEntry to visually confirm when an FVG gets filled. This is a simple but powerful trigger that often aligns with CHoCH or BOS moments.
Recommended Settings for Different Traders
For Scalpers, use a lower HTF structure such as 1 minute or 5 minutes. Keep Auto Fractals on for faster reaction, and limit FVG zones to 2–3. This gives you a clean, real-time reflection of order flow.
For Intraday Traders, 15-minute to 1-hour structure gives the perfect balance between reactivity and stability. Fractal sensitivity around 3–5 captures the most actionable levels without excessive noise.
For Swing Traders, use 4-hour, 1-day, or even 3-day structure. The chart becomes smoother, showing higher-order CHoCH and BOS that define true institutional transitions. Combine this with EMA confirmation for higher conviction.
For Position or Macro Traders, select Weekly or Monthly structure. The dynamic label system expands automatically to keep more historical BOS/CHoCH points visible, allowing you to see long-term shifts clearly.
Educational Value
This indicator is built to teach traders how to see structure the way professionals and smart money do. You’ll learn to recognize how markets transition from one phase to another from accumulation to manipulation to expansion. Each CHoCH or BOS helps you decode where liquidity is being taken and where new intent begins.
The included SMC Quick Guide explains each structural cue right on your chart. Within days of using it, you’ll start noticing patterns that reveal how price really moves, instead of guessing based on indicators.
Settings and How to Use Them
Everything in the SMC Reversal Engine is designed to adapt to your trading style and help you read structure like a professional.
When you open the Inputs Panel, you’ll see sections like Fractal Settings, FVG Settings, Buy/Sell Confirmation, and Educational Tools.
Under Fractal Settings, you can choose the higher timeframe (HTF) that defines structure—from minutes to weeks. The Auto Fractal Sensitivity option automatically adjusts how tight or wide swing points are detected. Lower sensitivity captures short-term fluctuations (great for scalpers), while higher values filter noise and isolate major swing highs and lows (perfect for swing traders).
The Fair Value Gap (FVG) options manage imbalance zones—the footprints of institutional orders. You can show or hide these zones, extend them into the future, and control how long they remain before auto-deletion. The Mark Entry When FVG is Tapped option places a small label when price revisits the gap—a potential entry signal that aligns with smart money logic.
EMA Confirmation adds a layer of confluence. The script can automatically scale EMA lengths based on timeframe, or you can input your preferred values (for example, 9/21 for intraday, 50/200 for swing). Require EMA Crossover Confirmation helps filter false moves, keeping you trading only with aligned momentum.
The Educational section gives traders visual reinforcement. When enabled, you’ll see tags like HH (Higher High), HL (Higher Low), LH (Lower High), and LL (Lower Low). These show structure shifts in real time, helping you learn visually what market structure really means. The Cheat Sheet panel summarizes each term, always visible in the corner for quick reference.
Early Top Warnings use wick size and RSI divergence to signal when price may be overextended—a useful heads-up before potential CHoCH formations.
Finally, the Narrative and Accuracy System translates structure into simple English—messages like Trend Bullish → Wait for HL or BOS Bearish → Expect LL. Over time, you can monitor how accurate these expectations have been, training your pattern recognition and confidence.
Pro Tips for Getting the Most Out of the SMC Reversal Engine
1. Start on Higher Timeframes First: Begin on the 4H or Daily chart where structure is cleaner and signals have more weight. Then scale down for entries once you grasp directional intent.
2. Use FVGs for Context, Not Just Entries: Observe how price behaves around unfilled FVGs—they often act as magnets or barriers, offering insight into where liquidity lies.
3. Combine With HTF Bias: Always trade in the direction of your higher timeframe trend. A bullish weekly BOS means lower timeframes should ideally align bullishly for optimal setups.
4. Clean Charts = Clear Mind: Use Minimal Mode when focusing on price action, then toggle the educational tools back on to review structure for learning.
5. Don’t Chase Every CHoCH or BOS: Focus on significant breaks that align with broader context and liquidity sweeps, not minor fluctuations.
6. Accuracy Rate Is a Feedback Tool: Use the accuracy stat as a reflection of consistency—not a trade trigger.
7. Build Narrative Awareness: Read the on-chart narrative messages to reinforce structured thinking and stay disciplined.
8. Practice Replay Mode: Step through past structures to visually connect CHoCH, BOS, and FVG behavior. It’s one of the best ways to train pattern recognition.
Summary
* Detects CHoCH and BOS automatically with fractal precision
* Identifies and manages Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) in real time
* Displays a smart dashboard with accuracy tracking
* Adapts label visibility dynamically by timeframe
* Perfect for both learning and trading with institutional clarity
This tool isn’t about predicting the market—it’s about understanding it. Once you can read structure, everything else in trading becomes secondary.
Advanced Triple Strategy ScalperHere are the three scalping strategies presented in the video "3 Scalping Strategies That Work Every Day (Backtested & Proven)" by Asia Forex Mentor – Ezekiel Chew:
### Scalper’s Trend Filter (Triple EMA)
This strategy uses three EMAs (25, 50, 100) on the 5-minute chart to filter high-probability trades aligned with momentum .
- Only trade when all three EMAs are angled in the same direction and clearly separated (no crossing or tangling) .
- Enter when price pulls back toward the 25 or 50 EMA and then bounces back toward the 25 EMA, but do not enter if price closes below the 100 EMA .
- Set stop-loss just below the 50 EMA or swing low and aim for a risk-to-reward ratio of 1:1.5 .
### Flip Zone Trap (Reversal Catching)
This method identifies precise reversal moments where market structure shifts from weakness to strength .
- Use the 15-min chart to locate key support or resistance zones where price previously reacted .
- Wait for price to stop making lower lows and begin making higher highs (or vice versa for shorts); confirm with a trendline break AND follow-through (higher lows & highs within 5-7 candles) .
- Use confirmation candles (bullish engulfing, pin bar rejection) at the zone before entry .
### Liquidity Shift Trigger (Smart Money Trap)
This system leverages institutional stop hunts and liquidity sweeps at key zones for sniper entries .
- Start with a 15-min chart to identify structure breaks and points of interest (order blocks, flip zones, demand zones) .
- Drop to 1-min chart and wait for price to enter the refined zone and sweep liquidity (sharp wick/spike below/above key level) .
- Once liquidity is swept, wait for a clean structure shift (break of most recent internal high or low) within 5–6 candles—if confirmed, refine entry to the candle that caused the break and enter when price returns to that candle with a strong reaction .
***
### Practical Application
- These strategies are systematic, rule-based, and designed to cut out fake moves, avoid early stop-outs, and align entries with momentum and institutional activity .
- Perfect for short timeframes and volatile pairs like XAUUSD, especially if paired with additional confirmation from other technical analysis tools .
All three strategies emphasize filtering noise, waiting for momentum/trend confirmation, and avoiding impulsive entries—key principles for consistent scalping success

Distribution Day Grading [Blk0ut]Distribution Day Grading
This script is designed to give traders and investors a fast, objective, and modern read on market health by analyzing distribution days, and stall days, two forms of institutional selling that often begin to appear before trend weakness, failed breakouts, and sharp corrections.
The goal of this script isn’t to predict tops or bottoms, but instead, it measures the character of the tape in a way that’s simple, visual, and immediately actionable.
While distribution analysis has existed for decades, my implementation is, I think, a little more adaptive. Traditional rules for identifying distribution days, coming from CANSLIM methodology, were built for markets which had lower volatility, different liquidity profiles, and slower institutional rotation. This script updates the traditional method with modernized thresholds, recency-weighted decay, stall-day logic, and dynamic presets tuned uniquely for the personality of each major U.S. index (you can change the values yourself as well).
The results are displayed as a compact letter-grade that quantitatively reflects a measure of how much institutional supply has been hitting the market, as well as how recently. This helps determine whether conditions are supportive of breakouts, mean reversion trades, aggressive trend trades, or whether caution and lighter sizing are warranted.
__________________________________________________________________________________
How It Works
The script evaluates each bar for two conditions:
1. Distribution Day
A bar qualifies as distribution when:
- Price closes down beyond a threshold (default 0.30%, adjustable)
- Volume is higher than the prior session (optional toggle)
Distribution days typically represent active institutional selling .
2. Stall Day
A softer form of supply:
-Price remains flat to slightly negative within a small threshold
-Close < open
-Volume higher than prior day
Stall days represent a passive distribution or hidden supply .
Each distribution day is counted as 1 unit by the script, each stall day as 0.5 units.
Recency Weighting
The script applies an optional half-life decay so that fresh distribution matters more than old distribution. This mimics the “aging out” effect that professional traders use, but does it in a smoother, more mathematically consistent way.
The script then produces:
A weighted distribution score
A raw distribution + stall count
A letter grade from A → F
Let's talk about the letters...
_________________________________________________________________________________
Letter Grade Meaning
A — Very Healthy Tape
Minimal institutional selling.
Breakouts behave better, momentum holds, pullbacks are shallow, upside targets are hit more consistently.
B — Healthy / Slight Caution
Some isolated supply but nothing structural.
Conditions remain favorable for trend trades, pullbacks, and breakout continuation.
C — Mixed / Caution Warranted
Distribution is building.
Breakouts begin to fail faster, candles widen, rotation becomes unstable, and risk/reward compresses.
D — Weak / Risk Elevated
Institutional selling is becoming persistent.
Failed breakouts, sharp reversals, and failed rallies become more common. Position sizing should tighten.
F — Clear Deterioration
Broad, repeated institutional distribution.
This is where major tops, deeper pullbacks, and corrections often begin to form underneath the surface.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Index-Tuned Presets (Auto Mode)
Market structure varies dramatically across indices.
To address this, the script includes auto-detect presets for:
SPY / SPX equivalents
QQQ / NASDAQ-100 equivalents
IWM / Russell 2000 equivalents
DIA / Dow 30 equivalents
Each preset contains optimized values based on volatility, liquidity, noise, and institutional behavior:
SPY / SPX
Low noise, deep liquidity → classic thresholds work well.
Distribution thresholds remain conservative.
QQQ
Higher volatility → requires a slightly larger down-percentage filter to avoid false signals.
IWM
Noisiest of the major indices → requires much stricter thresholds to filter out junk signals.
DIA
Slowest-moving index → tighter conditions catch real distribution earlier.
The script automatically detects which symbol family you’re viewing and loads the appropriate preset unless manual overrides are enabled.
__________________________________________________________________________________
How to Interpret This Indicator
Grade A–B:
Breakouts have higher odds of clean continuation
Mean reversion is smoother
Position sizing can be more assertive
Grade C:
Start tightening risk
Focus on A- setups, not B- or C- risk ideas
Grade D–F:
Expect lower win rates
Expect breakout failures
Favor countertrend plays or reduced exposure
Take faster profits
____________________________
This indicator should help traders prevent themselves from fighting the tape or sizing aggressively when the underlying environment is deteriorating through:
- Modernized distribution logic, not the 1990s thresholds
- Recency-weighted decay instead of the old 5-week “aging out”
- Stall-day detection for subtle institutional supply
- Auto-presets tuned per index, adjusting thresholds to match volatility and liquidity
- Unified letter-grade scoring for visual clarity
- Independent application for any trading style, it helps with trend, momentum, mean reversion, and options

Forever ModelForever Model is a comprehensive trading framework that visualizes market structure through Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergences, and order block confirmations. The indicator identifies potential price rotations by tracking internal liquidity zones, correlation breaks between assets, and confirmation signals across multiple timeframes.
Designed for clarity and repeatability, the model presents a structured visual logic that supports manual analysis while maintaining flexibility across different assets and timeframes. All components are non-repainting, ensuring historical accuracy and reliable backtesting.
Description
The model operates through a three-part sequence that forms the visual foundation for identifying potential market rotations:
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
FVGs are price imbalances detected on higher timeframes—areas where price moved rapidly between candles, leaving an inefficiency that may be revisited. The indicator identifies both bullish and bearish FVGs, displaying them with color-coded levels that extend until mitigated.
: Chart showing FVG detection with colored lines indicating bullish (green) and bearish (red) gaps
Smart Money Technique (SMT)
SMT detects divergence between the current chart asset and a correlated pair. When one asset makes a higher high while the other forms a lower high (or vice versa), it indicates a potential shift in delivery. The indicator draws visual lines connecting these divergence points and can filter SMTs to only display those occurring within FVG ranges.
: Chart showing SMT divergence lines between two correlated assets with labels indicating the pair name]
Order Block Confirmations (OB)
When price confirms a signal by crossing a pivot level, an Order Block is created. The confirmation line extends from the pivot point, labeled as "OB+" for bullish signals or "OB-" for bearish signals. The latest OB extends to the current bar, while previous OBs remain fixed at their confirmation points.
: Chart showing OB confirmation lines with OB+ and OB- labels at confirmation points]
Key Features
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Detection
FVGs are detected on a higher timeframe than the current chart, with automatic HTF selection based on the current timeframe or manual override options. This ensures that internal liquidity zones are identified from the appropriate structural context.
External Range Liquidity (ERL)
Tracks the latest higher timeframe pivot highs and lows, marking external liquidity levels that may be revisited. ERL levels are displayed as horizontal lines with optional labels, providing context for potential continuation targets.
: Chart showing ERL lines at recent HTF pivot points
Signal Creation and Confirmation System
The model creates pending signals when FVG levels are mitigated. Signals confirm when price closes beyond a pivot level, creating the OB confirmation line. Stop levels are automatically calculated from the maximum (bearish) or minimum (bullish) price between signal creation and confirmation.
SMT Filtering Options
Display all SMTs or only those within FVG ranges
Require SMT for signal confirmation (optional filter)
Automatic or manual SMT pair selection
Support for both correlated and inverse correlated pairs
Directional Bias Filter
Filter FVG detection to show only bullish bias, bearish bias, or both. This allows analysts to align with higher timeframe structure or focus on unidirectional setups.
Confirmation Line Management
Toggle to extend only the latest confirmation line or all confirmation lines
Transparent label backgrounds with colored text (red for bearish, green for bullish)
Automatic cleanup of old confirmation lines (keeps last 50)
Labels positioned at line end (latest) or middle (older lines)
Position Sizing Calculator
Optional position sizing based on account balance, risk percentage or fixed amount, and instrument-specific contract sizes. Supports prop firm calculations and can display position size, entry, and stop levels in the dashboard.
Information Dashboard
A customizable floating table displays:
Current timeframe and HTF
Remaining time in current bar
Current bias direction
Latest confirmed signal details (type, size, entry, stop)
Pending signal status
The dashboard can be repositioned, resized, and styled to match your preferences.
Special Range Creation
When signals confirm, the model can automatically create special range levels from stop prices. These levels persist on the chart as important reference points, even after mitigation, serving as potential reversal zones for future signals.
Label and Visualization Controls
Toggle FVG labels on/off
Toggle confirmation lines on/off
Customizable colors for bullish and bearish FVGs
ERL color customization
SMT line width adjustment
Order Flow Integration (Optional)
The indicator includes optional Open Interest (OI) based special range detection, allowing integration with order flow analysis for enhanced context.
Technical Notes
All components are non-repainting—once formed, they remain on the chart
FVGs cannot be mitigated on their creation bar
Signal-based special ranges persist even after mitigation (important stop levels)
SMT detection supports both HTF and chart timeframe modes
Maximum 50 confirmation lines are maintained for performance
The model is designed to work across all asset classes and timeframes, providing a consistent framework for identifying potential market rotations through the interaction of internal liquidity, correlation breaks, and confirmation signals, this does not constitute as trading advice, past performance is no indication of future performance , this is entirely done for entertainment and educational purposes
