Liquidity Zones [ActiveQuants]The Liquidity Zones indicator detects price areas where high trading volume coincides with below-average volatility , critical zones where large players often accumulate or distribute positions. Ideal for spotting potential reversal points and strategic liquidity pools.
Core Detection Formula
Liquidity Zone = (Volume > SMA(Volume, Length) × Multiplier) AND (Short-Term Volatility < 0.5 × Average Volatility)
Volume Surge Detection
Compares current volume to its SMA (user-defined length).
Multiplies threshold with " Volume Threshold Multiplier " parameter.
Volatility Contraction Filter
Calculates 5-bar volatility (standard deviation of closes).
Compares to average volatility over " Price Std. Dev. Length " period.
Requires short-term volatility < 50% of average.
█ KEY FEATURES
Merging Consecutive Zones
If the " Merge Consecutive Zones " option is enabled, the indicator will:
Calculate the number of consecutive bars that meet the liquidity zone criteria.
Sum the volume of these consecutive bars.
Display only the most recent label for the merged zone (previous labels in the sequence are removed).
Displays volume in either
Raw units (" Units ").
Dollar-equivalent (" Currency Value ") using closing price.
Alerts
An alert condition is built into the script. Traders can selectively enable alerts via TradingView’s alert system. Whenever a liquidity zone is detected, an alert is triggered with the message: " High-volume and low-volatility zone detected! ".
█ USER INPUTS

█ CONCLUSION
The Liquidity Zones indicator is a powerful tool for traders seeking to identify key areas on the chart where liquidity is concentrated, characterized by high volume and low volatility . With customizable settings for volume analysis and volatility measurement , this indicator can be integrated into a wide range of trading strategies. It not only highlights these zones visually but also provides volume data labels and alerts for timely decision-making.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Volume and Volatility Settings: Adjust the Volume SMA Length , Volume Threshold Multiplier , and Price Std. Dev. Length to suit the typical trading volume and volatility of the asset you are analyzing.
⚠ Confirmed Bars Only: Signals are generated only on confirmed bars. This minimizes false signals due to intra-bar noise and also prevents indicator repainting .
⚠ Risk Management: Liquidity zones may signal areas of potential accumulation or distribution, but they should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools (e.g., support/resistance levels, trendlines, or momentum indicators). Trading involves risk, and it is recommended to combine this indicator with proper risk management techniques.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Liquidity zones indicate potential interest areas but don't guarantee price reactions. Always confirm with additional analysis and proper risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
📈 Happy trading! 🚀
Liquidity LinesLiquidity Lines Indicator
This advanced TradingView indicator identifies key liquidity zones on your price chart by detecting bullish and bearish engulfing candles, which often signify areas where liquidity accumulates. It helps traders visually spot potential support and resistance levels created by market participants’ stop-loss orders or pending orders.
Key Features :
-Aggregated Bars Option : Smooth out price data by grouping bars together, enabling clearer liquidity zone identification on higher timeframes or noisy charts.
-Upper Liquidity Lines : Displays dashed lines at recent highs where bearish engulfing patterns indicate potential resistance or supply zones.
-Lower Liquidity Lines : Displays dashed lines at recent lows where bullish engulfing patterns suggest potential support or demand zones.
-Customizable Colors : Choose your preferred colors for bullish (default black) and bearish (default white) liquidity lines for better visual distinction.
-Automatic Line Cleanup : Maintains chart clarity by automatically removing old liquidity lines after a configurable limit.
-Dynamic Alerts : Trigger alerts when price breaches upper or lower liquidity lines, signaling potential breakout or reversal opportunities.
Use Cases :
Liquidity Sweep with EMAThis Pine Script indicator helps traders identify potential market reversals based on liquidity sweeps, where the price moves through the previous candle's low or high and then closes above or below the previous candle's wick. These are often seen as significant market moves or liquidity grabs before a potential reversal or continuation.
The indicator is also equipped with an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) as an optional visual aid to give traders a sense of the prevailing trend, though it is not used as part of the signal generation logic.
Key Features:
Liquidity Sweep Detection:
Bullish Sweep: Triggered when the current candle sweeps below the low of the previous candle and then closes above the high of the previous candle. This indicates a potential market reversal to the upside after the liquidity sweep.
Bearish Sweep: Triggered when the current candle sweeps above the high of the previous candle and then closes below the low of the previous candle. This indicates a potential market reversal to the downside after the liquidity sweep.
EMA:
The EMA (50) is plotted on the chart for visual trend guidance. While it is not used to confirm the signals, it can help traders see if the market is in a general uptrend or downtrend.
Signal Presentation:
Buy Signal: The indicator will plot a green upward arrow below the candle when a bullish liquidity sweep is detected.
Sell Signal: The indicator will plot a red downward arrow above the candle when a bearish liquidity sweep is detected.
Timeframe Filter:
The indicator only generates signals on the following timeframes: 30-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and Daily. This helps to ensure the sweeps are significant and likely to result in meaningful price moves.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set up for both bullish and bearish sweep signals, so traders can be notified when these events occur.
Customizable:
EMA Length: The length of the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) can be adjusted. By default, it is set to 50, but you can modify this to fit your trading strategy.
Show EMA Option: You can toggle whether or not to display the EMA line on the chart.
How It Works:
The indicator looks for price action patterns where the current candle sweeps through the high or low of the previous candle and closes beyond the previous wick.
These patterns are often seen as potential traps, where the price initially moves in one direction (sweeping the liquidity) and then quickly reverses, making them important for traders who want to catch reversals or breakouts after a liquidity sweep.
The EMA (50) gives a general trend direction but doesn't directly affect the trade signals. It serves as a visual reference for trend analysis.
Potential Use Cases:
Reversal Trading: Traders can use this indicator to catch reversals after a liquidity sweep. The green upward arrows may indicate a bullish reversal, while the red downward arrows may indicate a bearish reversal.
Trend Trading: The EMA can help traders gauge the overall market trend. If the price is above the EMA, the market may be in an uptrend, and traders may focus on bullish sweeps. Conversely, if the price is below the EMA, the market may be in a downtrend, and traders may focus on bearish sweeps.
Confirmation with Other Indicators: Although the EMA is not used to confirm signals in this script, it can be combined with other indicators (like RSI, Volume, or MACD) to enhance the accuracy of your trades.
Final Thoughts:
This script is designed to identify liquidity sweeps and price reversals based on price action alone, without relying on complex indicators. The optional EMA serves as a helpful tool for understanding the overall market trend. It’s ideal for traders looking to spot potential reversal points after significant price sweeps and is suitable for multiple timeframes (30m, 1h, 4h, Daily).

Liquidity + Engulfment StrategyThis strategy identifies potential trading opportunities by combining bullish and bearish engulfing candle patterns with liquidity seal-off points. The logic is based on the concept of engulfing candles, which signal a shift in market sentiment, and liquidity lines, which represent local price extremes (highs and lows) that can indicate potential reversal or continuation points.
Key Features:
Mode Selection
The strategy allows for three modes: "Both", "Bullish Only", and "Bearish Only". Users can choose whether to trade both directions, only bullish setups, or only bearish setups.
Time Range
Users can define a specific time range for when the strategy is active, enabling tailored analysis and trade execution over a desired period.
Engulfing Candles
Bullish Engulfing: A candle that closes above the high of the previous bearish candle, signaling potential upward momentum.
Bearish Engulfing: A candle that closes below the low of the previous bullish candle, indicating a potential downtrend.
Liquidity Seal-Off Points
The strategy detects local highs and local lows within a specified lookback period, which can serve as critical support and resistance points.
A bullish signal is triggered when the price touches a lower liquidity point (local low), and a bearish signal is triggered at a higher liquidity point (local high).
Signal Confirmation
Signals are only triggered when both an engulfing candle and the price action at a liquidity seal-off point align. This helps filter out weaker signals.
Consecutive signals are prevented by locking the trade direction after an initial signal and waiting for the liquidity line to be broken before re-triggering a signal.
Entry and Exit Conditions
The strategy can enter both long (bullish) or short (bearish) positions based on the mode and signals.
Exit is based on opposing signals or reaching predefined stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Alerts
The strategy supports alert conditions to notify users when bullish engulfing after a lower liquidity touch or bearish engulfing after an upper liquidity touch is detected.

Liquidity + Internal Market Shift StrategyLiquidity + Internal Market Shift Strategy
This strategy combines liquidity zone analysis with the internal market structure, aiming to identify high-probability entry points. It uses key liquidity levels (local highs and lows) to track the price's interaction with significant market levels and then employs internal market shifts to trigger trades.
Key Features:
Internal Shift Logic: Instead of relying on traditional candlestick patterns like engulfing candles, this strategy utilizes internal market shifts. A bullish shift occurs when the price breaks previous bearish levels, and a bearish shift happens when the price breaks previous bullish levels, indicating a change in market direction.
Liquidity Zones: The strategy dynamically identifies key liquidity zones (local highs and lows) to detect potential reversal points and prevent trades in weak market conditions.
Mode Options: You can choose to run the strategy in "Both," "Bullish Only," or "Bearish Only" modes, allowing for flexibility based on market conditions.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit: Customizable stop-loss and take-profit levels are integrated to manage risk and lock in profits.
Time Range Control: You can specify the time range for trading, ensuring the strategy only operates during the desired period.
This strategy is ideal for traders who want to combine liquidity analysis with internal structure shifts for precise market entries and exits.
This description clearly outlines the strategy's logic, the flexibility it provides, and how it works. You can adjust it further to match your personal trading style or preferences!
Liquidity IndicatorThe Liquidity Indicator helps identify key price levels where liquidity may be concentrated by highlighting local highs and local lows on the chart. These levels are calculated using a lookback period to determine the highest and lowest points in the recent price action.
Local Highs: Displayed as red lines, these indicate recent peaks where price has experienced rejection or a possible reversal point.
Local Lows: Displayed as green lines, these represent recent troughs where price may find support or experience a bounce.
This indicator is useful for spotting potential areas of interest for price reversal or continuation, as high liquidity zones may lead to more significant price movements.
Key Features:
Adjustable lookback period to define the scope for identifying local highs and lows.
Continuous plotting without any time restrictions, providing real-time insights into liquidity conditions.
Alerts available for when a local high or local low is detected, enabling timely market analysis.
Use Case:
This indicator can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools or strategies to help identify significant price levels where liquidity could impact price action. It is suitable for both intraday and swing traders looking for key price zones where potential reversals or continuations might occur.
Liquidity weighted SupertrendOverview
The Liquidity Weighted Supertrend Indicator (LWST) is an advanced iteration of the traditional Supertrend indicator, meticulously crafted to improve trend detection by incorporating liquidity into its calculations. By weighting price movements according to trading volume, the LWST becomes more responsive to significant market activities, offering traders a more accurate depiction of market trends.
Indicator Description
The Liquidity Weighted Supertrend Indicator is a versatile and adaptive tool designed to assist traders in recognizing trends and potential reversal points within the market. This indicator features two operational modes: Aggressive and Smoothed, allowing traders to tailor trend detection to their specific trading style and market conditions.
Key Features
Two Supertrend Modes:
Aggressive Mode: This mode offers more responsive signals, ideal for short-term trading. It utilizes an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to smooth the price data, resulting in quicker reactions to market changes.
Smoothed Mode: This mode provides more stable signals, suitable for longer-term trading, by employing a Simple Moving Average (SMA). Note that when "Smoothed" mode is selected, the "Fast MA length" input is not utilized, focusing instead on producing smoother trend lines.
LWMA Calculation:
The Liquidity Weighted Moving Average (LWMA) is a distinctive feature of the LWST, blending volume and price action to filter out market noise and pinpoint significant price movements. This calculation begins with the liquidity factor, determined by multiplying volume with the price change, which is then smoothed using an EMA for accuracy.
Customizable Parameters:
Factor: Adjusts the Supertrend line's sensitivity to price movements.
Supertrend Length: Defines the lookback period for the Average True Range (ATR) calculation, which affects the width of the Supertrend channel.
Fast and Slow MA Lengths: Allows customization of the fast and slow moving averages used in the LWMA calculation, offering further control over the indicator's responsiveness.
How the Indicator Works
LWMA Smoothing:
The LWST calculates liquidity by multiplying volume with the absolute difference between the close and open prices. This liquidity value is smoothed using an EMA and compared to its standard deviation, identifying significant price movements. Depending on the selected mode, the price data (hl2) is smoothed either with an EMA (in Aggressive Mode) or an SMA (in Smoothed Mode). It’s important to note that when Smoothed mode is active, the "Fast MA length" input does not affect the output.
Visual Signals:
The Supertrend line is visually represented on the chart, with different colors indicating bullish (lime) and bearish (red) trends.
Buy and sell signals are clearly marked with arrows: green triangles indicate potential buying opportunities (when the price crosses above the Supertrend line), and red triangles suggest selling opportunities (when the price crosses below the Supertrend line).
Additional arrows may appear, signaling potential trend reversals, providing further confirmation for traders.
How to Use the Indicator
Configuring the Indicator:
Supertrend Type: Choose between Aggressive and Smoothed modes depending on your trading strategy and the current market conditions. Aggressive mode is better suited for shorter timeframes, while Smoothed mode provides more consistent signals for longer-term analysis.
Factor and Length Settings: Customize the Factor, Supertrend Length, and Moving Average lengths to fine-tune the sensitivity and responsiveness of the Supertrend line, adapting the indicator to various market environments.
Interpreting the Signals:
Trend Identification: The Supertrend line offers a clear visualization of the current market trend. A green line indicates a bullish trend, suggesting upward price movement, while a red line indicates a bearish trend, signaling potential downward price movement.
Entry and Exit Points: The arrows plotted by the LWST provide straightforward entry and exit signals. Green arrows signal potential buy opportunities, indicating that the price may continue to rise, while red arrows signal potential sell opportunities, suggesting that the price may decline. These visual cues help traders make informed decisions based on the current market trend.
Liquidity LevelsThe "Liquidity Levels" indicator on TradingView is designed to identify and highlight liquidity levels in the market. This indicator is based on pivot highs and lows with an adjustable offset to adjust the importance and length of the identified levels.
The strength of this indicator lies in its ability to highlight changes in liquidity levels, which can be crucial for traders. By marking pivot highs and lows, potential areas of high liquidity are highlighted, which can indicate where significant market movements or reversal points may occur.
The flexibility of whether the calculation is based on the closing price or the high/low prices allows for customisable analysis. The visual representation of liquidity levels by lines makes it easier to identify and monitor these key areas in the chart, which can provide additional value for traders.
Liquidity Channel with B/SIndicator - Liquidity Level
Which calculates the liquidity levels based on the highest high and lowest low of the specified period. It determines the middle line, upper line, and lower line of the liquidity channel. The liquidity level is the average of the upper and lower lines, and the liquidity level distance is half of the difference between the upper and lower lines.
Here, the code determines if the conditions for overbought and oversold signals are met. It compares the current closing price with the previous opening price to determine the color of the bar (red or green). If the conditions are met and the bar color matches the expected direction (red for overbought and green for oversold), the respective signals are triggered.
The code plots buy and sell signals on the chart using shape labels. It displays "Buy" labels below the bars for buy signals and "Sell" labels above the bars for sell signals. Additionally, it colors the bars in gray. The code also sets up alert conditions to send notifications when buy or sell signals occur.
*************** Please note that this is a high-level overview of the code's functionality. The specific details and calculations may vary based on the parameters and settings provided in the code.
*************** Remember, trading involves risks, and it's important to thoroughly test any strategy and consider risk management principles before using it in live trading. It's recommended to consult with a knowledgeable financial advisor or professional trader for guidance and assistance in developing and implementing trading strategies.

Liquidity Sweep Reversal [Grimoire]The Liquidity Sweep Reversal indicator is designed to spot potential turning points by watching for “liquidity sweeps” above key prior highs. Specifically, it marks when price briefly pushes above levels such as:
The high of the previous candle
The high of the prior trading day
The high of the previous week
These sweeps often trigger stop-hunts or liquidity hunts, after which price frequently reverses. By highlighting those moments, the indicator helps you anticipate and trade these reversal moves more easily.
RSI + MACD + Liquidity FinderLiquidity Finder: The liquidity zones are heuristic and based on volume and swing points. You may need to tweak the volumeThreshold and lookback to match the asset's volatility and timeframe.
Timeframe: This script works on any timeframe, but signals may vary in reliability (e.g., higher timeframes like 4H or 1D may reduce noise).
Customization: You can modify signal conditions (e.g., require only RSI or MACD) or add filters like trend direction using moving averages.
Backtesting: Use TradingView's strategy tester to evaluate performance by converting the indicator to a strategy (replace plotshape with strategy.entry/strategy.close).
Liquidity Squeeze Indicator 1The provided Pine Script code implements a "Liquidity Squeeze Indicator" in TradingView, designed to detect potential bullish or bearish market squeezes based on EMA slopes, candle wicks, and body sizes.
Code Breakdown
EMAs Calculation: Calculates the 21-period (ema_21) and 50-period (ema_50) exponential moving averages (EMAs) on closing prices.
EMA Slope Calculation: Computes the slope of the 21-period EMA over a 21-period lookback to estimate trend direction, with a threshold of 0.45 to approximate a 45-degree angle.
Candle Properties: Measures the size of the candle's body and its upper and lower wicks for comparison to detect wick-to-body ratios.
Trend Identification: Defines a bullish trend when ema_21 is above ema_50 and a bearish trend when ema_21 is below ema_50.
Wick Conditions
Bullish Condition : In a bullish trend with the EMA slope up, checks if the upper wick is at least 3x the body size and the closing price is above the 21 EMA.
Bearish Condition: In a bearish trend with the EMA slope down, checks if the lower wick is at least 3x the body size and the closing price is below the 21 EMA.
Signal Plotting: Plots a green dot above the bar for bullish signals and a red dot below the bar for bearish signals.
Alerts: Defines alert conditions for both bullish and bearish signals, providing specific alert messages when conditions are met.
Summary
This indicator helps identify potential bullish or bearish liquidity squeezes by looking at trends, EMA slopes, and wick-to-body ratios in candlesticks. The primary signals are visualized through dots on the chart and can trigger alerts for notable market conditions.
Liquidity Grab Strategy (Volume Trap)🧠 Strategy Logic:
Liquidity Grab Detection:
The script looks for a sharp drop in price (bearish engulfing or breakdown candle).
However, volume remains flat (within 5% of the 20-period moving average), suggesting the move is manipulated, not genuine.
Fair Value Gap Confirmation (FVG):
It confirms that a Fair Value Gap exists — a gap between recent candle bodies that price is likely to retrace into.
This gap represents a high-probability entry zone.
Trade Setup:
A limit BUY order is placed at the base of the FVG.
Stop Loss (SL) is placed below the gap.
Take Profit (TP) is placed at the most recent swing high.
📈 How to Use It:
Add the strategy to your TradingView chart (1–5 min or 15 min works well for intraday setups).
Look for green BUY labels and plotted lines:
💚 Green = Entry price
🔴 Red = Stop loss
🔵 Blue = Take profit
The script will automatically simulate entries when conditions are met and exit either at TP or SL.
Use TradingView’s Strategy Tester to review:

Risk-adjusted performance
Liquidity SpotterIndicator Setup:
The script sets up a TradingView indicator titled "Liquidity Spotter" with a short title "PWWTC LS". It's designed to overlay on the price chart (overlay=true).
Input Variables:
The script defines input variables that allow users to customize the behavior of the indicator:
atr_length: Length of the Average True Range (ATR) used in calculations.
volume_multiplier: Multiplier used to compare the volume of the current bar with the average volume.
range_multiplier: Multiplier used to calculate the range condition.
highlight_color: Color used to highlight bars when conditions are met.
Calculations:
The script calculates the ATR and average volume using the ta.atr and ta.sma functions provided by TradingView's Pine Script.
It sets the avg_range to the value of the ATR, essentially making it the same as atr_value.
Conditions:
The script checks several conditions based on the calculated values:
range_condition: Compares the range (high - low) of the current bar with the average range multiplied by the range multiplier.
volume_condition: Compares the volume of the current bar with the average volume multiplied by the volume multiplier.
range_volume_condition: Compares the ratio of range to volume with the ratio of average range to average volume.
Plotting:
Based on the conditions being met or not, the script sets the color of the price bars. If all conditions are met, the color of the bars will be set to highlight_color, otherwise, it will remain unchanged (na).
Overall, this script visually highlights price bars on the chart where specific conditions related to range, volume, and their ratio are met, potentially indicating trading opportunities.
Liquidity Heatmap LTF [LuxAlgo]This indicator displays column heatmaps highlighting candle bodies with the highest associated volume from a lower user selected timeframe.
Settings
LTF Timeframe: Lower timeframe used to retrieve the closing/opening price and volume data. Must be lower than the current chart timeframe.
Other settings control the style of the displayed graphical elements.
Usage
It can be of interest to show which candles from a lower timeframe had the highest associated volume, this allows for the highlighting of areas where a candle body was the most traded by market participants.
The area with the highest activity is highlighted in the script with a yellow color (or another user selected color) and additionally by two lines forming an interval.
When the candle body with the highest volume is overlapped by a candle body with lower volume this one will be highlighted instead, hence why certain areas of high activity might not be highlighted by the heatmap.
It is recommended to hide regular candles or use a more discrete graphical presentation of prices when using this tool. Lines are also displayed to highlight the full candle range as well as if a candle was bullish (in green) or bearish (in red). These lines can be hidden if the user is only interested in the heatmap.

IU Liquidity Flow TrackerDESCRIPTION
The IU Liquidity Flow Tracker is a powerful market analysis tool designed to visualize hidden buying and selling activity by analyzing price action, volume behavior, market pressure, and depth. It provides a composite view of liquidity dynamics to help traders identify accumulation, distribution, and neutral phases with high clarity.
This indicator is ideal for traders who want to gauge the flow of market participants and make informed entry/exit decisions based on the underlying liquidity structure.
USER INPUTS:
* Flow Analysis Period: Length used for analyzing price spread and volume flow.
* Pressure Sensitivity: Adjusts the sensitivity of threshold detection for flow classification.
* Flow Smoothing: Controls the smoothing applied to raw flow data.
* Market Depth Analysis: Sets the depth range for rejection and wick analysis.
* Colors: Customize colors for accumulation, distribution, neutral zones, and pressure visualization.
INDICATOR LOGIC:
The IU Liquidity Flow Tracker uses a multi-factor model to evaluate market behavior:
1. Liquidity Pressure: Combines price spread, price efficiency, and volume imbalance.
2. Flow Direction: Weighted momentum using short, medium, and long-term price changes adjusted for volume.
3. Market Depth: Wick-based rejection scoring to estimate buying/selling aggressiveness at price extremes.
4. Composite Flow Index: Blended value of flow direction, pressure, and depth—smoothed for clarity.
5. Dynamic Thresholds: Automatically adjusts based on volatility to classify the market into:
* Accumulation: Strong buying signals.
* Distribution: Strong selling signals.
* Neutral: No significant flow dominance.
6. Entry Signals: Long/Short signals are generated when flow state shifts, supported by momentum, volume surge, and depth strength.
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
Unlike typical indicators that rely solely on price or volume, this tool combines spread behavior, volume polarity, momentum weighting, and price rejection zones into a single visual interface. It dynamically adjusts sensitivity based on market volatility, helping avoid false signals during sideways or low-volume periods.
It is not based on any traditional indicator (RSI, MACD, etc.), making it ideal for traders looking for an original and data-driven market read.
HOW USER CAN BENEFIT FROM IT:
* Understand Market Context: Know whether the market is being accumulated, distributed, or ranging.
* Improve Entries/Exits: Use flow transitions combined with volume confirmation for high-probability setups.
* Spot Institutional Activity: Detect subtle shifts in liquidity that precede major price moves.
* Reduce Whipsaws: Dynamic thresholds and multi-factor confirmation help filter noise.
* Use with Any Style: Whether you're a swing trader, day trader, or scalper, this tool adapts to different timeframes and strategies.

🔵 BASIC DEMONSTRATION OF ALL FEATURES
1. MARKET STRUCTURE
The preceding image illustrates the market structure functionality within the Smart Money Concepts indicator.
➤ Solid lines: These represent the core indicator's internal structure, forming the foundation for most other components. They visually depict the overall market direction and identify major reversal points marked by significant price movements (denoted as 'x').
➤ Internal Structure: These represent an alternative internal structure with the potential to drive more rapid market shifts. This is particularly relevant when a significant gap exists in the established swing structure, specifically between the Break of Structure (BOS) and the most recent Change of High/Low (CHoCH). Identifying these formations can offer opportunities for quicker entries and potential short-term reversals.
➤ Sweeps (x): These signify potential turning points in the market where liquidity is removed from the structure. This suggests a possible trend reversal and presents crucial entry opportunities. Sweeps are identified within both swing and internal structures, providing valuable insights for informed trading decisions.
➤ Mapping structure: A tool that automatically identifies and connects significant price highs and lows, creating a zig-zag pattern. It visualizes market structure, highlights trends, support/resistance levels, and potential breakouts. Helps traders quickly grasp price action patterns and make informed decisions.
➤ Color-coded candles based on market structure: These colors visually represent the underlying market structure, making it easier for traders to quickly identify trends.
➤ Extreme H&L: It visualizes market structure with extreme high and lows, which gives perspective for macro Market Structure.
2. VOLUMETRIC ORDER BLOCKS
Order blocks are specific areas on a financial chart where significant buying or selling activity has occurred. These are not just simple zones; they contain valuable information about market dynamics. Within each of these order blocks, volume bars represent the actual buying and selling activity that took place. These volume bars offer deeper insights into the strength of the order block by showing how much buying or selling power is concentrated in that specific zone.
Additionally, these order blocks can be transformed into Breaker Blocks. When an order block fails—meaning the price breaks through this zone without reversing—it becomes a breaker block. Breaker blocks are particularly useful for trading breakouts, as they signal that the market has shifted beyond a previously established zone, offering opportunities for traders to enter in the direction of the breakout.
Here's a breakdown:
➤ Bear Order Blocks (Red): These are zones where a lot of selling happened. Traders see these areas as places where sellers were strong, pushing the price down. When the price returns to these zones, it might face resistance and drop again.
➤ Bull Order Blocks (Green): These are zones where a lot of buying happened. Traders see these areas as places where buyers were strong, pushing the price up. When the price returns to these zones, it might find support and rise again.
These Order Blocks help traders identify potential areas for entering or exiting trades based on past market activity. The volume bars inside blocks show the amount of trading activity that occurred in these blocks, giving an idea of the strength of buying or selling pressure.
➤ Breaker Block: When an order block fails, meaning the price breaks through this zone without reversing, it becomes a breaker block. This indicates a significant shift in market liquidity and structure.
➤ A bearish breaker block occurs after a bullish order block fails. This typically happens when there's an upward trend, and a certain level that was expected to support the market's rise instead gives way, leading to a sharp decline. This decline indicates that sellers have overcome the buyers, absorbing liquidity and shifting the sentiment from bullish to bearish.
Conversely, a bullish breaker block is formed from the failure of a bearish order block. In a downtrend, when a level that was expected to act as resistance is breached, and the price shoots up, it signifies that buyers have taken control, overpowering the sellers.
3. FAIR VALUE GAPS:
A fair value gap (FVG), also referred to as an imbalance, is an essential concept in Smart Money trading. It highlights the supply and demand dynamics. This gap arises when there's a notable difference between the volume of buy and sell orders. FVGs can be found across various asset classes, including forex, commodities, stocks, and cryptocurrencies.
FVGs in this toolkit have the ability to detect raids of FVG which helps to identify potential price reversals.
Mitigation option helps to change from what source FVGs will be identified: Close, Wicks or AVG.
4. SWING FAILURE PATTERN (SFP):
The Swing Failure Pattern is a liquidity engineering pattern, generally used to fill large orders. This means, the SFP generally occurs when larger players push the price into liquidity pockets with the sole objective of filling their own positions.
SFP is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential market reversals. It works by detecting instances where the price briefly breaks a previous high or low but fails to maintain that breakout, quickly reversing direction.
How it works:
Pattern Detection: The indicator scans for price movements that breach recent highs or lows.
Reversal Confirmation: If the price quickly reverses after breaching these levels, it's identified as an SFP.
➤ SFP Display:
Bullish SFP: Marked with a green symbol when price drops below a recent low before reversing upwards.
Bearish SFP: Marked with a red symbol when price rises above a recent high before reversing downwards.
➤ Deviation Levels: After detecting an SFP, the indicator projects white lines showing potential price deviation:
For bullish SFPs, the deviation line appears above the current price.
For bearish SFPs, the deviation line appears below the current price.
These deviation levels can serve as a potential trading opportunity or areas where the reversal might lose momentum.
With Volume Threshold and Filtering of SFP traders can adjust their trading style:
Volume Threshold: This setting allows traders to filter SFPs based on the volume of the reversal candle. By setting a higher volume threshold, traders can focus on potentially more significant reversals that are backed by higher trading activity.
SFP Filtering: This feature enables traders to filter SFP detection. It includes parameters such as:
5. LIQUIDITY CONCEPTS:
➤ Equal Lows (EQL) and Equal Highs (EQH) are important concepts in liquidity-based trading.
EQL: A series of two or more swing lows that occur at approximately the same price level.
EQH: A series of two or more swing highs that occur at approximately the same price level.
EQLs and EQHs are seen as potential liquidity pools where a large number of stop loss orders or limit orders may be clustered. They can be used as potential reverse points for trades.
This multi-period feature allows traders to select less and more significant EQL and EQH:
➤ Liquidity wicks:
Liquidity wicks are a minor representation of a stop-loss hunt during the retracement of a pivot point:
➤ Buy and Sell side liquidity:
The buy side liquidity represents a concentration of potential buy orders below the current price level. When price moves into this area, it can lead to increased buying pressure due to the execution of these orders.
The sell side liquidity indicates a pool of potential sell orders below the current price level. Price movement into this area can result in increased selling pressure as these orders are executed.
➤ Sweep Liquidation Zones:
Sweep Liquidation Zones are crucial for understanding market structure and potential future price movements. They provide insights into areas where significant market participants have been forced out of their positions, potentially setting up new trading opportunities.
🔵 USAGE & EXAMPLES
The core principle behind the success of this toolkit lies in identifying "confluence." This refers to the convergence of multiple trading indicators all signaling the same information at a specific point or area. By seeking such alignment, traders can significantly enhance the likelihood of successful trades.
MS + OBs
The chart illustrates a highly bullish setup where the price is rejecting from a bullish order block (POC), while simultaneously forming a bullish Swing Failure Pattern (SFP). This occurs after an internal structure change, marked by a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH). The price broke through a bearish order block, transforming it into a breaker block, further confirming the bullish momentum.
The combination of these elements—bullish order blocks, SFP, and CHoCH—creates a powerful bullish signal, reinforcing the potential for upward movement in the market.
SFP + Bear OB
This chart above displays a bearish setup with a high probability of a price move lower. The price is currently rejecting from a bear order block, which represents a key resistance area where significant selling pressure has previously occurred. A Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) has also formed near this bear order block, indicating that the price briefly attempted to break above a recent high but failed to sustain that upward movement. This failure suggests that buyers are losing momentum, and the market could be preparing for a move to the downside.
Additionally, we can toggle on the Deviation Area in the SFP section to highlight potential levels where price deviation might occur. These deviation areas represent zones where the price is likely to react after the Swing Failure Pattern:
BUY – SELL sides + EQL
The chart showcases a bullish setup with a high probability of price breaking out of the current sell-side resistance level. The market structure indicates a formation of Equal Lows (EQL), which often suggests a build-up of liquidity that could drive the price higher.
The presence of strong buy-side pressure (69%), indicated by the green zone at the bottom, reinforces this bullish outlook. This area represents a key support zone where buyers are outpacing sellers, providing the foundation for a potential upward breakout.
EQL + Bull ChoCh
This chart illustrates a potential bullish setup, driven by the formation of Equal Lows (EQL) followed by a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH). The presence of Equal Lows often signals a liquidity build-up, which can lead to a reversal when combined with additional bullish signals.
Liquidity grab + Bull ChoCh + FVGs
This chart demonstrates a strong bullish scenario, where several important market dynamics are at play. The price begins its upward momentum from Liquidity grab following a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH), signaling the transition from a bearish phase to a bullish one.
As the price progresses, it performs liquidity grabs, which serve to gather the necessary fuel for further movement. These liquidity grabs often occur before significant price surges, as large market participants exploit these areas to accumulate positions before pushing the price higher.
The chart also highlights a market imbalance area, showing strong momentum as the price moves swiftly through this zone.
In this examples, we see how the combination of multiple “smart money” tools helps identify a potential trade opportunities. This is just one of the many scenarios that traders can spot using this toolkit. Other combinations—such as order blocks, liquidity grabs, fair value gaps, and Swing Failure Patterns (SFPs)—can also be layered on top of these concepts to further refine your trading strategy.
