DonAlt - Smart Money Toolkit [BigBeluga]DonAlt - Smart Money Toolkit is inspired by the analytical insights of popular crypto influencer DonAlt.
This advanced toolkit integrates smart money concepts with key technical analysis elements to enhance your trading decisions.
🔵 KEY FEATURES:
SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE LEVELS Automatically identifies critical market turning points with significant volume. Levels turn green when the price is above them and red when below, providing a visual cue for key market thresholds.
ORDER BLOCKS: Highlights significant price zones preceding major price movements.
- If the move is down , it searches for the last bullish candle and plots a block from its body.
- If the move is up , it searches for the last bearish candle and creates a block from its body.
These blocks help identify areas of institutional interest and potential reversals.
TRENDLINES: Automatically plots trendlines to identify breakout zones or price accumulation areas.
• Bullish trendlines accumulation form when the current low is higher than the previous low.
• Bearish trendlines accumulation emerge when the current high is lower than the previous high.
• Bullish trendlines Breakout form when the price break above it.
• Bearish trendlines Breakout form when the price break below it.
Volatility Integration: The levels incorporate normalized volatility to ensure only significant zones are highlighted, filtering noise and emphasizing meaningful data.
🔵 WHEN TO USE:
This toolkit is ideal for traders seeking to align with "smart money" strategies by identifying key areas of institutional activity, strong support and resistance zones, and potential breakout setups.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION:

WhalenatorThis custom TradingView indicator combines multiple analytic techniques to help identify potential market trends, areas of support and resistance, and zones of heightened trading activity. It incorporates a SuperTrend-like line based on ATR, Keltner Channels for volatility-based price envelopes, and dynamic order blocks derived from significant volume and pivot points. Additionally, it highlights “whale” activities—periods of exceptionally large volume—along with an estimated volume profile level and approximate bid/ask volume distribution. Together, these features aim to offer traders a more comprehensive view of price structure, volatility, and institutional participation.
This custom TradingView indicator integrates multiple trading concepts into a single, visually descriptive tool. Its primary goal is to help traders identify directional bias, volatility levels, significant volume events, and potential support/resistance zones on a price chart. Below are the main components and their functionalities:
SuperTrend-Like Line (Trend Bias):
At the core of the indicator is a trend-following line inspired by the SuperTrend concept, which uses Average True Range (ATR) to adaptively set trailing stop levels. By comparing price to these levels, the line attempts to indicate when the market is in an uptrend (price above the line) or a downtrend (price below the line). The shifting levels can provide a dynamic sense of direction and help traders stay with the predominant trend until it shifts.
Keltner Channels (Volatility and Range):
Keltner Channels, based on an exponential moving average and Average True Range, form volatility-based envelopes around price. They help traders visualize whether price is extended (touching or moving outside the upper/lower band) or trading within a stable range. This can be useful in identifying low-volatility consolidations and high-volatility breakouts.
Dynamic Order Blocks (Approximations of Supply/Demand Zones):
By detecting pivot highs and lows under conditions of significant volume, the indicator approximates "order blocks." Order blocks are areas where institutional buying or selling may have occurred, potentially acting as future support or resistance zones. Although these approximations are not perfect, they offer a visual cue to areas on the chart where price might react strongly if revisited.
Volume Profile Proxy and Whale Detection:
The indicator highlights price levels associated with recent maximum volume activity, providing a rough "volume profile" reference. Such levels often become key points of price interaction.
"Whale" detection logic attempts to identify bars where exceptionally large volume occurs (beyond a defined threshold). By tracking these "whale bars," traders can infer where heavy participation—often from large traders or institutions—may influence market direction or create zones of interest.
Approximate Bid/Ask Volume and Dollar Volume Tracking:
The script estimates whether volume within each bar leans more towards the bid or the ask side, aiming to understand which participant (buyers or sellers) might have been more aggressive. Additionally, it calculates dollar volume (close price multiplied by volume) and provides an average to gauge the relative participation strength over time.
Labeling and Visual Aids:
Dynamic labels display Whale Frequency (the ratio of bars with exceptionally large volume), average dollar volume, and approximate ask/bid volume metrics. This gives traders at-a-glance insights into current market conditions, participation, and sentiment.
Strengths:
Multifaceted Analysis:
By combining trend, volatility, volume, and order block logic in one place, the indicator saves chart space and simplifies the analytical process. Traders gain a holistic view without flipping between multiple separate tools.
Adaptable to Market Conditions:
The use of ATR and Keltner Channels adapts to changing volatility conditions. The SuperTrend-like line helps keep traders aligned with the prevailing trend, avoiding constant whipsaws in choppy markets.
Volume-Based Insights:
Integrating whale detection and a crude volume profile proxy helps traders understand where large players might be interacting. This perspective can highlight critical levels that might not be evident from price action alone.
Convenient Visual Cues and Labels:
The indicator provides quick reference points and textual information about the underlying volume dynamics, making decision-making potentially faster and more informed.
Weaknesses:
Heuristic and Approximate Nature:
Many of the indicator’s features, like the "order blocks," "whale detection," and the approximate bid/ask volume, rely on heuristics and assumptions that may not always be accurate. Without actual Level II data or true volume profiles, the insights are best considered as supplementary, not definitive signals.
Lagging Components:
Indicators that rely on past data, like ATR-based trends or moving averages for Keltner Channels, inherently lag behind price. This can cause delayed signals, particularly in fast-moving markets, potentially missing some early opportunities or late in confirming market reversals.
No Guaranteed Predictive Power:
As with any technical tool, it does not forecast the future with certainty. Strong volume at a certain level or a bullish SuperTrend reading does not guarantee price will continue in that direction. Market conditions can change unexpectedly, and false signals will occur.
Complexity and Overreliance Risk:
With multiple signals combined, there’s a risk of information overload. Traders might feel compelled to rely too heavily on this one tool. Without complementary analysis (fundamentals, news, or additional technical confirmation), overreliance on the indicator could lead to misguided trades.
Conclusion:
This integrated indicator offers a comprehensive visual guide to market structure, volatility, and activity. Its strength lies in providing a multi-dimensional viewpoint in a single tool. However, traders should remain aware of its approximations, inherent lags, and the potential for conflicting signals. Sound risk management, position sizing, and the use of complementary analysis methods remain essential for trading success.
Risks Associated with Trading:
No indicator can guarantee profitable trades or accurately predict future price movements. Market conditions are inherently unpredictable, and reliance on any single tool or combination of tools carries the risk of financial loss. Traders should practice sound risk management, including the use of stop losses and position sizing, and should not trade with funds they cannot afford to lose. Ultimately, decisions should be guided by a thorough trading plan and possibly supplemented with other forms of market analysis or professional advice.
Risks and Important Considerations:
• Not a Standalone Tool:
• This indicator should not be used in isolation. It is essential to incorporate additional technical analysis tools, fundamental analysis, and market context when making trading decisions.
• Relying solely on this indicator may lead to incomplete assessments of market conditions.
• Market Volatility and False Signals:
• Financial markets can be highly volatile, and indicators based on historical data may not accurately predict future movements.
• The indicator may produce false signals due to sudden market changes, low liquidity, or atypical trading activity.
• Risk Management:
• Always employ robust risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders, diversifying your portfolio, and not over-leveraging positions.
• Understand that no indicator guarantees success, and losses are a natural part of trading.
• Emotional Discipline:
• Avoid making impulsive decisions based on indicator signals alone.
• Emotional trading can lead to significant financial losses; maintain discipline and adhere to a well-thought-out trading plan.
• Continuous Learning and Adaptation:
• Stay informed about market news, economic indicators, and global events that may impact trading conditions.
• Continuously evaluate and adjust your trading strategies as market dynamics evolve.
• Consultation with Professionals:
• Consider seeking advice from financial advisors or professional traders to understand better how this indicator can fit into your overall trading strategy.
• Professional guidance can provide personalized insights based on your financial goals and risk tolerance.
Disclaimer:
Trading financial instruments involves substantial risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. This indicator is provided for informational and educational purposes only and should not be considered investment advice. Always conduct your own research and consult with a licensed financial professional before making any trading decisions.
Note: The effectiveness of any technical indicator can vary based on market conditions and individual trading styles. It's crucial to test indicators thoroughly using historical data and possibly paper trading before applying them in live trading scenarios.
ICT Unicorn | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Unicorn Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT's "Unicorn" strategy. The strategy uses Breaker Blocks and Fair Value Gaps for entry confirmation. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Unicorn Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Unicorn Strategy
Toggleable Retracement Entry Method
3 Different TP / SL Methods
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The ICT Unicorn entry model merges the concepts of Breaker Blocks and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), offering a distinct method for identifying trade opportunities. By integrating these two elements, we can have a position entry with stop-loss and take-profit targets on the potential support & resistance zones. This model is particularly reliable for trade entry, as it combines two powerful entry techniques.
An ICT Unicorn Model consists of a FVG which is overlapping with a Breaker Block of the same type. Here is an example :
When a FVG overlaps with a Breaker Block of the same type, the indicator gives a Buy or Sell signal depending on the FVG type (Bullish & Bearish). If the "Require Retracement" option is enabled in the settings, the signals are not given immediately. Instead, the current price of the ticker will need to touch the FVG once more before the signals are given.
After the Buy or Sell signal, the indicator immediately draws the take-profit (TP) and stop-loss (SL) targets. The indicator has three different TP & SL modes, explained in the "Settings" section of this write-up.
You can set up alerts for entry and TP & SL signals, and also check the current performance of the indicator and adjust the settings accordingly to the current ticker using the backtesting dashboard.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suit for the ICT's Unicorn concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. Different and customizable algorithm modes will help the trader fine-tune the indicator for the asset they are currently trading. Three different TP / SL modes are available to suit your needs. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
FVG Detection Sensitivity -> You may select between Low, Normal, High or Extreme FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivies resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivies resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order & breaker blocks.
Require Retracement ->
a) Disabled : The entry signal is given immediately once a FVG overlaps with a Breaker Block of the same type.
b) Enabled : The current price of the ticker will need to touch the FVG once more before the entry signal is given.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method ->
a) Unicorn : This is the default option. The SL will be set to the lowest low of the last 100 bars with an extra offset in a Buy signal. For Sell signals, the SL will be set to the highest high of the last 100 bars with an extra offset. The TP is then set to a value using the SL value and maintaining a risk-reward ratio.
b) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
c) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.

FVG LevelsFVG Levels Indicator Description
The FVG Levels indicator dynamically identifies and displays key price zones that may represent fair value gaps and order block areas, helping traders to visually pinpoint potential support and resistance levels directly on the chart.
Key Features
Order Block Identification:
The indicator detects bullish and bearish order blocks by analyzing specific candle patterns. For bullish zones, it checks if a candle two bars ago was bullish (close greater than open) coupled with a subsequent gap condition. Similarly, bearish zones are identified when bearish candle conditions are met with an appropriate gap.
Dynamic Zone Calculation:
It computes critical levels such as the highest highs, lowest lows, highest lows, and lowest highs over a series of recent bars. These levels define the boundaries of potential buy and sell zones and adjust dynamically as new price data comes in.
Visual Representation:
Buy zones are plotted in lime and sell zones in yellow, with the indicator filling the areas between the high and low lines to create clear, shaded bands. This visual aid helps in quickly recognizing zones of potential price reaction.
Chart Overlay:
Designed to work as an overlay, the indicator integrates directly onto your price chart, allowing for seamless correlation between price action and identified zones.
How It Works
Bullish Zones:
When a bullish candle (with the candle's close above its open) is detected along with a significant gap, the indicator marks the upper and lower boundaries of the bullish order block. It further refines these levels by tracking the lowest low and highest high over recent bars to enhance the zone's definition.
Bearish Zones:
In a similar manner, the indicator calculates bearish order blocks by confirming bearish candle conditions and corresponding gap criteria. It then updates the bearish zone levels and computes the highest high and lowest low to establish clear sell zone boundaries.
Usage
Traders can use the FVG Levels indicator to:
Identify potential entry and exit points by observing where price may reverse or consolidate.
Recognize fair value gaps or imbalances that often act as magnet points for price action.
Enhance risk management by using the dynamically calculated zones to set stop-losses or take-profits.
OrderBlock [kyleAlgo]The principle of this indicator
ATR (Average True Range) Setting: The code uses ATR to help calculate the Supertrend indicator.
Supertrend Trend Direction: Identify bullish and bearish trends with the Supertrend method.
Order Block Recognition: This part of the code recognizes and creates order blocks, visualizing them as boxes on the chart. If the number of blocks exceeds the maximum limit, old blocks will be deleted.
Function to prevent overlapping: check whether the new order block overlaps with the existing order block through the isOverlapping function.
Order block color setting: The code sets the color according to whether the block is bullish or bearish, and whether it breaks above or below. Afterwards the color of the existing order blocks will be updated.
Sensitivity settings: Through the input settings of factor and atrPeriod, the sensitivity of Supertrend and the detection of order blocks can be affected.
Visualization: Use TradingView's box.new function to draw and visualize order blocks on the chart.
Practicality:
Support and Resistance Levels: Order blocks may represent areas of support and resistance in the market. By visualizing these areas, traders can better understand when price reversals are likely to occur.
Trading Signals: Traders may be able to identify trading signals based on the color changes of blocks and price breakouts. For example, if the price breaks above a bullish block, this could be a signal to buy.
Risk Management: By using ATR to adjust the sensitivity of Supertrend, the symbol helps traders to adjust their strategies according to market volatility. This can be used as a risk management tool to help identify stop loss and take profit points.
Multi-timeframe analysis: Although the code itself does not implement multi-timeframe analysis directly, it can be done by applying this indicator on different timeframes. This helps to analyze the market from different angles.
Flexibility and Customization: Through sensitivity settings, traders can customize the indicator according to their needs and trading style.
Reduced screen clutter: By removing overlapping order blocks and limiting the maximum number of order blocks, this code helps reduce clutter on charts, allowing traders to analyze the market more clearly.
Overall, this "Pine Script" can be a powerful analytical tool for trend traders and those looking to improve their trading decisions by visualizing key market areas. It can be used alone or combined with other indicators and trading systems for enhanced functionality.
MirPapa:ICT:HTF: FVG OB Threeple# MirPapa:ICT:HTF: FVG OB (Fair Value Gap Order Block)
**Version:** Pine Script® v6
**Author:** © goodia
**License:** MPL-2.0 (Mozilla Public License 2.0)
---
## Overview
“FVG OB” (Fair Value Gap Order Block) identifies higher-timeframe candle ranges where a gap (imbalance) exists between two non-consecutive candles, signaling potential institutional order blocks. This module draws bullish or bearish FVG OB boxes on your lower-timeframe chart, extends them until price interacts a specified number of times, and then finalizes (recolors) the box.
---
## Inputs
- **Enable FVG OB Boxes** (`bool`)
Toggle drawing of HTF FVG OB boxes on the chart.
- **Enable FVG OB Midlines** (`bool`)
Toggle drawing of a midpoint line inside each FVG OB box.
- **FVG OB Close Count** (`int` 1–10)
Number of HTF closes beyond the FVG range required to finalize (recolor) the box.
- **FVG OB Bull Color** (`color`)
Fill & border color for bullish FVG OB boxes.
- **FVG OB Bear Color** (`color`)
Fill & border color for bearish FVG OB boxes.
- **FVG OB Box Transparency** (`int` 1–100)
Opacity level for FVG OB box fills (higher = more transparent).
---
## How It Works
1. **HTF Data Retrieval**
- The script uses `request.security()` (via `GetHTFrevised()`) to fetch HTF OHLC and historical values:
- `_htfHigh3` (high three bars ago) and `_htfLow1` (low one bar ago) for bullish FVG OB.
- `_htfLow3` (low three bars ago) and `_htfHigh1` (high one bar ago) for bearish FVG OB.
- It also tracks the HTF `bar_index` on the lower timeframe to align drawing.
2. **FVG OB Detection**
- **Bullish FVG OB**: Occurs when the HTF low of the previous bar (`low `) is strictly above the HTF high of three bars ago (`high `), creating a gap.
- **Bearish FVG OB**: Occurs when the HTF high of the previous bar (`high `) is strictly below the HTF low of three bars ago (`low `), creating a gap.
3. **Box Creation**
- On each new HTF bar (`ta.change(time(HTF)) != 0`), if a bullish or bearish FVG OB condition is met, the script calls `CreateBoxData()` with:
- **Bullish**: `bottom = HTF low `, `top = HTF high `, `_isBull = true`.
- **Bearish**: `bottom = HTF low `, `top = HTF high `, `_isBull = false`.
- Midline toggled by input.
- A `BoxData` struct is created and stored in either the Bull or Bear array.
4. **Box Extension & Finalization**
- On **every LTF bar**, `ProcessBoxDatas(...)` iterates over all active FVG OB boxes:
1. **Extend Right Edge**: `box.set_right(bar_index)` ensures the box follows the latest bar.
2. **Record Volume Delta**: Tracks buy/sell volume inside the box.
3. **Touch Stage Update**: `modBoxUpdateStage()` increments `_stage` when price touches its “basePoint” (for FVG OB, the basePrice is one side of the gap).
4. **Finalize**: `setBoxFinalize()` checks if the configured number of closes beyond the FVG gap (`FVG OB Close Count`) has occurred. If so:
- `_isActive := false`
- Border and background colors are changed to the “Box Close Color” (input).
- Finalized boxes remain on screen semi-transparent, indicating that the FVG OB zone has been tested.
5. **Midline (Optional)**
- If “Enable FVG OB Midlines” is checked, `ProcessBoxDatas()` also extends a horizontal midpoint line inside the box with `line.set_x2(bar_index)`.
---
## Usage Instructions
1. **Installation**
- Copy the FVG OB section of the Pine Script into TradingView’s Pine Editor (ensure the library import is included).
- Click “Add to Chart.”
2. **Configure Inputs**
- Choose a Higher Time Frame via the dropdown (e.g., “4시간” maps to a 4H timeframe).
- Toggle “Enable FVG OB Boxes” and “Enable FVG OB Midlines.”
- Select colors for bullish and bearish boxes and set transparency.
- Adjust “FVG OB Close Count” to control how many closes beyond the gap finalize the box.
3. **Interpretation**
- **Active FVG OB Boxes** extend to the right until price closes beyond the gap range the specified number of times.
- When finalized, each box changes to the “Box Close Color,” signaling that institutional orders in that gap have likely been filled.

[JL] Fractals ATR BlockI decided to combine Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks to an Indicator
The Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks indicator combines three concepts to help traders identify potential trade opportunities and manage risk. By using a combination of Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks, traders can gain a deeper understanding of market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
Fractal ROC is a momentum-based indicator that calculates the rate of change of the price between fractals, which are turning points in the market. It is calculated by taking the difference between the closing price and the lowest price in the previous n+1 periods, and dividing it by the difference between the open price 2n periods ago and the lowest price in the previous n+1 periods. This calculation is done for both up and down fractals. When the Fractal ROC value is greater than the ROC Break Level (as determined by the input variable roclevel), it indicates a potential momentum shift in the market. This can be used to identify potential trade entries or exits, depending on your trading strategy.
ATR Break is an indicator that helps traders identify significant price movements in the market. It measures the distance between the price and the Average True Range (ATR), which is a measure of the volatility of the market. ATR Break is calculated by taking the difference between the close and high/low, and dividing it by the previous ATR value. This calculation is done for both up and down movements. When the ATR Break value is greater than the ATR Break Level (as determined by the input variable atrlevel), it indicates a significant move in the market. This can be used to identify potential breakouts or breakdowns, and can be used to set stop-loss and take-profit levels.
An Order Block is a price level where significant buying or selling activity has taken place. The order blocks made by ATR Break and Fractal ROC are drawn using boxes on the chart. When the ATR or Fractal ROC level is breached, a box is drawn with the high and low of the candle that breached the level as the top and bottom of the box, respectively. The box is then extended to the right until the end of the chart or until another ATR or Fractal ROC level is breached, at which point a new box is drawn. This allows traders to easily identify significant price movements and potential support and resistance levels on the chart. When an Order Block is identified, it can be used as a potential support or resistance level . If price approaches an Order Block from below, it is likely to bounce off this level and continue in an upward direction. Similarly, if price approaches an Order Block from above, it is likely to bounce off this level and continue in a downward direction. Traders can use these levels to identify potential trade entries or exits, as well as to set stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Overall, the Fractal ROC , ATR Break, and Order Blocks indicator is a powerful tool for traders who want to identify potential trade opportunities and manage risk. By combining these three concepts, traders can gain a deeper understanding of market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions. As with any indicator, it is important to use it in conjunction with other analysis tools and to have a clear trading plan in place.
Multi Indicator SummaryPurpose: It calculates and displays bullish and bearish order blocks, key levels derived from recent price movements, which traders use to identify potential support and resistance areas.
Inputs: Users can customize the order block length, defining the range of price data used for calculations.
Logic: The script uses ta.lowest and ta.highest functions to compute order blocks based on specified periods for bullish and bearish trends.
Additional Levels: It identifies extra order blocks (bullish_below and bearish_above) to provide more context for deeper support or higher resistance.
Price Table: A visual table is created on the chart, showing the current price, bullish and bearish order blocks, and additional bearish levels above the current price.
Alerts: Alerts are triggered when the price crosses key order block levels, helping traders react to significant price movements.
Flexibility: The table dynamically updates based on the chart’s ticker and timeframe, ensuring it always reflects the latest data.
Bearish Above Price: Highlights the most recent bearish order block above the current price to inform traders about potential resistance areas.
Visualization: The clear table format aids quick decision-making by summarizing key levels in an accessible way.
Usability: This script is especially useful for intraday and swing traders seeking to integrate order block analysis into their strategies.
16. SMC Strategy with SL - low TimeframeOverview
The "SMC Strategy with SL - low Timeframe" is a comprehensive trading strategy that uses key concepts from Smart Money Theory to identify favorable areas in the market for buying or selling. This strategy takes advantage of price imbalances, support and resistance zones, and swing highs/lows to generate high-probability trade signals.
The key features of this strategy include:
Swing High/Low Analysis: Used to determine the Premium, Equilibrium, and Discount Zones.
Order Block Integration: An added layer of confluence to identify valid buy and sell signals.
Trend Direction Confirmation: Using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to determine the overall trend.
Entry and Exit Rules: Based on price position relative to key zones and moving average, along with optional stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Detailed Description
Swing High and Swing Low Analysis
The script calculates Swing High and Swing Low based on the most recent price highs and lows over a specified look-back period (swingHighLength and swingLowLength, set to 8 by default).
It then derives the Premium, Equilibrium, and Discount Zones:
Premium Zone: Represents potential resistance, calculated based on recent swing highs.
Discount Zone: Represents potential support, calculated based on recent swing lows.
Equilibrium: The midpoint between Swing High and Swing Low, dividing the price range into Premium (above equilibrium) and Discount (below equilibrium) areas.
Zone Visualization
The strategy plots the Premium Zone (resistance) in red, the Discount Zone (support) in green, and the Equilibrium level in blue on the chart. This helps visually assess the current price relative to these important areas.
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
A 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) is added to help identify the trend direction.
Buy signals are valid only if the price is above the SMA, indicating an uptrend.
Sell signals are valid only if the price is below the SMA, indicating a downtrend.
Entry Rules
The script generates buy or sell signals when certain conditions are met:
A buy signal is triggered when:
Price is below the Equilibrium and within the Discount Zone.
Price is above the SMA.
The buy signal is further confirmed by the presence of an Order Block (recent lowest price area).
A sell signal is triggered when:
Price is above the Equilibrium and within the Premium Zone.
Price is below the SMA.
The sell signal is further confirmed by the presence of an Order Block (recent highest price area).
Order Block
The strategy defines Order Blocks as recent highs and lows within a look-back period (orderBlockLength set to 20 by default).
These blocks represent areas where large players (smart money) have historically been active, increasing the probability of the price reacting in these areas again.
Trade Management and Trade Direction
The user can set Trade Direction to either "Long Only," "Short Only," or "Both." This allows the strategy to adapt based on market conditions or trading preferences.
Based on the Trade Direction, the strategy either:
Closes open trades that are against new signals.
Allows only specific directional trades (either long or short).
Stop-loss levels are defined based on a fixed percentage (stop_loss_percent), which helps to manage risk and minimize losses.
Exit Rules
The strategy uses stop-loss levels for risk management.
A stop-loss price is set at a fixed percentage below the entry price for long positions or above the entry price for short positions.
When the price hits the defined stop-loss level, the trade is closed.
Liquidity Zones
The script identifies recent Swing Highs and Lows as potential liquidity zones. These are levels where price could react strongly, as they represent areas of interest for large traders.
The liquidity zones are plotted as crosses on the chart, marking areas where price may encounter significant buying or selling pressure.
Visual Feedback
The script uses visual markers (green for buy signals and red for sell signals) to indicate potential entries on the chart.
It also plots liquidity zones to help traders identify areas where stop hunts and liquidity grabs might occur.
Monthly Performance Dashboard
The script includes a performance tracking feature that displays monthly profit and loss metrics on the chart.
This dashboard allows the trader to see a visual representation of trading performance over time, providing insights into profitability and consistency.
The table shows profit or loss for each month and year, allowing the user to track the overall success of the strategy.
Key Benefits
Smart Money Concepts (SMC): This strategy incorporates SMC principles like order blocks and liquidity zones, which are used by institutional traders to determine potential market moves.
Zone Analysis: The use of Premium, Discount, and Equilibrium zones provides a solid framework for determining where to enter and exit trades based on price discounts or premiums.
Confluence: Signals are not taken in isolation. They are confirmed by factors like trend direction (SMA) and order blocks, providing greater trade accuracy.
Risk Management: By integrating stop-loss functionality, traders can manage their risks effectively.
Visual Performance Metrics: The monthly and yearly performance dashboard gives valuable feedback on how well the strategy has performed historically.
Practical Use
Buy in Discount Zone: Traders would be looking to buy when the price is discounted relative to its recent range and is above the SMA, indicating an overall uptrend.
Sell in Premium Zone: Conversely, traders would be looking to sell when the price is at a premium relative to its recent range and below the SMA, indicating an overall downtrend.
Order Block Confirmation: Ensures that buying or selling is supported by historical price behavior at significant levels, providing confidence that the market is likely to react at these areas.
This strategy is designed to help traders take advantage of price inefficiencies and areas where institutional traders are likely to be active, increasing the odds of successful trades. By leveraging Smart Money concepts and strong technical confluence, it aims to provide high-probability trade setups.
Enhanced London Session SMC SetupEnhanced London Session SMC Setup Indicator
This Pine Script-based indicator is designed for traders focusing on the London trading session, leveraging smart money concepts (SMC) to identify potential trading opportunities in the GBP/USD currency pair. The script uses multiple techniques such as Order Block Detection, Imbalance (Fair Value Gap) Analysis, Change of Character (CHoCH) detection, and Fibonacci retracement levels to aid in market structure analysis, providing a well-rounded approach to trade setups.
Features:
London Session Highlight:
The indicator visually marks the London trading session (from 08:00 AM to 04:00 PM UTC) on the chart using a blue background, signaling when the high-volume, high-impulse moves tend to occur, helping traders focus their analysis on this key session.
Order Block Detection:
Identifies significant impulse moves that may form order blocks (supply and demand zones). Order blocks are areas where institutions have executed large orders, often leading to price reversals or continuation. The indicator plots the high and low of these order blocks, providing key levels to monitor for potential entries.
Imbalance (Fair Value Gap) Detection:
Detects and highlights price imbalances or fair value gaps (FVG) where the market has moved too quickly, creating a gap in price action. These areas are often revisited by price, offering potential trade opportunities. The upper and lower bounds of the imbalance are visually marked for easy reference.
Change of Character (CHoCH) Detection:
This feature identifies potential trend reversals by detecting significant changes in market character. When the price action shifts from bullish to bearish or vice versa, a CHoCH signal is triggered, and the corresponding level is marked on the chart. This can help traders catch trend reversals at key levels.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
The script calculates and plots the key Fibonacci retracement levels (0.618 and 0.786 by default) based on the highest and lowest points over a user-defined swing lookback period. These levels are commonly used by traders to identify potential pullback zones where price may reverse or find support/resistance.
Directional Bias Based on Market Structure:
The indicator provides a market structure analysis by comparing the current highs and lows to the previous periods' highs and lows. This helps in identifying whether the market is in a bullish or bearish state, providing a clear directional bias for trade setups.
Alerts:
The indicator comes with built-in alert conditions to notify the trader when an order block, imbalance, CHoCH, or other significant price action event is detected, ensuring timely action can be taken.
Ideal Usage:
Timeframe: Suitable for intraday trading, particularly focusing on the London session (08:00 AM to 04:00 PM UTC).
Currency Pair: Specifically designed for GBP/USD but can be adapted to other pairs with similar market behavior.
Trading Strategy: Best used in conjunction with a price action strategy, focusing on the key levels identified (order blocks, FVG, CHoCH) and using Fibonacci retracement levels for precision entries.

ICT Setup 03 [TradingFinder] Judas Swing NY 9:30am + CHoCH/FVG🔵 Introduction
Judas Swing is an advanced trading setup designed to identify false price movements early in the trading day. This advanced trading strategy operates on the principle that major market players, or "smart money," drive price in a certain direction during the early hours to mislead smaller traders.
This deceptive movement attracts liquidity at specific levels, allowing larger players to execute primary trades in the opposite direction, ultimately causing the price to return to its true path.
The Judas Swing setup functions within two primary time frames, tailored separately for Forex and Stock markets. In the Forex market, the setup uses the 8:15 to 8:30 AM window to identify the high and low points, followed by the 8:30 to 8:45 AM frame to execute the Judas move and identify the CISD Level break, where Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones are subsequently detected.
In the Stock market, these time frames shift to 9:15 to 9:30 AM for identifying highs and lows and 9:30 to 9:45 AM for executing the Judas move and CISD Level break.
Concepts such as Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) are crucial in this setup. An Order Block represents a chart region with a high volume of buy or sell orders placed by major financial institutions, marking significant levels where price reacts.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) refers to areas where price has moved rapidly without balance between supply and demand, highlighting zones of potential price action and future liquidity.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The Judas Swing setup enables traders to pinpoint entry and exit points by utilizing Order Block and FVG concepts, helping them align with liquidity-driven moves orchestrated by smart money. This setup applies two distinct time frames for Forex and Stocks to capture early deceptive movements, offering traders optimized entry or exit moments.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In the Bullish Judas Swing setup, the first step is to identify High and Low points within the initial time frame. These levels serve as key points where price may react, forming the basis for analyzing the setup and assisting traders in anticipating future market shifts.
In the second time frame, a critical stage of the bullish setup begins. During this phase, the price may create a false break or Fake Break below the low level, a deceptive move by major players to absorb liquidity. This false move often causes smaller traders to enter positions incorrectly. After this fake-out, the price reverses upward, breaking the CISD Level, a critical point in the market structure, signaling a potential bullish trend.
Upon breaking the CISD Level and reversing upward, the indicator identifies both the Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG). The Order Block is an area where major players typically place large buy orders, signaling potential price support. Meanwhile, the FVG marks a region of supply-demand imbalance, signaling areas where price might react.
Ultimately, after these key zones are identified, a trader may open a buy position if the price reaches one of these critical areas—Order Block or FVG—and reacts positively. Trading at these levels enhances the chance of success due to liquidity absorption and support from smart money, marking an opportune time for entering a long position.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In the Bearish Judas Swing setup, analysis begins with marking the High and Low levels in the initial time frame. These levels serve as key zones where price could react, helping to signal possible trend reversals. Identifying these levels is essential for locating significant bearish zones and positioning traders to capitalize on downward movements.
In the second time frame, the primary bearish setup unfolds. During this stage, price may exhibit a Fake Break above the high, causing a brief move upward and misleading smaller traders into incorrect positions. After this false move, the price typically returns downward, breaking the CISD Level—a crucial bearish trend indicator.
With the CISD Level broken and a bearish trend confirmed, the indicator identifies the Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG). The Bearish Order Block is a region where smart money places significant sell orders, prompting a negative price reaction. The FVG denotes an area of supply-demand imbalance, signifying potential selling pressure.
When the price reaches one of these critical areas—the Bearish Order Block or FVG—and reacts downward, a trader may initiate a sell position. Entering trades at these levels, due to increased selling pressure and liquidity absorption, offers traders an advantage in profiting from price declines.
🔵 Settings
Market : The indicator allows users to choose between Forex and Stocks, automatically adjusting the time frames for the "Opening Range" and "Trading Permit" accordingly: Forex: 8:15–8:30 AM for identifying High and Low points, and 8:30–8:45 AM for capturing the Judas move and CISD Level break. Stocks: 9:15–9:30 AM for identifying High and Low points, and 9:30–9:45 AM for executing the Judas move and CISD Level break.
Refine Order Block : Enables finer adjustments to Order Block levels for more accurate price responses.
Mitigation Level OB : Allows users to set specific reaction points within an Order Block, including: Proximal: Closest level to the current price. 50% OB: Midpoint of the Order Block. Distal: Farthest level from the current price.
FVG Filter : The Judas Swing indicator includes a filter for Fair Value Gap (FVG), allowing different filtering based on FVG width: FVG Filter Type: Can be set to "Very Aggressive," "Aggressive," "Defensive," or "Very Defensive." Higher defensiveness narrows the FVG width, focusing on narrower gaps.
Mitigation Level FVG : Like the Order Block, you can set price reaction levels for FVG with options such as Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal.
CISD : The Bar Back Check option enables traders to specify the number of past candles checked for identifying the CISD Level, enhancing CISD Level accuracy on the chart.
🔵 Conclusion
The Judas Swing indicator helps traders spot reliable trading opportunities by detecting false price movements and key levels such as Order Block and FVG. With a focus on early market movements, this tool allows traders to align with major market participants, selecting entry and exit points with greater precision, thereby reducing trading risks.
Its extensive customization options enable adjustments for various market types and trading conditions, giving traders the flexibility to optimize their strategies. Based on ICT techniques and liquidity analysis, this indicator can be highly effective for those seeking precision in their entry points.

Quarterly Theory ICT 03 [TradingFinder] Precision Swing Points🔵 Introduction
Precision Swing Point (PSP) is a divergence pattern in the closing of candles between two correlated assets, which can indicate a potential trend reversal. This structure appears at market turning points and highlights discrepancies between the price behavior of two related assets.
PSP typically forms in key timeframes such as 5-minute, 15-minute, and 90-minute charts, and is often used in combination with Smart Money Concepts (SMT) to confirm trade entries.
PSP is categorized into Bearish PSP and Bullish PSP :
Bearish PSP : Occurs when an asset breaks its previous high, and its middle candle closes bullish, while the correlated asset closes bearish at the same level. This divergence signals weakness in the uptrend and a potential price reversal downward.
Bullish PSP : Occurs when an asset breaks its previous low, and its middle candle closes bearish, while the correlated asset closes bullish at the same level. This suggests weakness in the downtrend and a potential price increase.
🟣 Trading Strategies Using Precision Swing Point (PSP)
PSP can be integrated into various trading strategies to improve entry accuracy and filter out false signals. One common method is combining PSP with SMT (divergence between correlated assets), where traders identify divergence and enter a trade only after PSP confirms the move.
Additionally, PSP can act as a liquidity gap, meaning that price tends to react to the wick of the PSP candle, making it a favorable entry point with a tight stop-loss and high risk-to-reward ratio. Furthermore, PSP combined with Order Blocks and Fair Value Gaps in higher timeframes allows traders to identify stronger reversal zones.
In lower timeframes, such as 5-minute or 15-minute charts, PSP can serve as a confirmation for more precise entries in the direction of the higher timeframe trend. This is particularly useful in scalping and intraday trading, helping traders execute smarter entries while minimizing unnecessary stop-outs.
🔵 How to Use
PSP is a trading pattern based on divergence in candle closures between two correlated assets. This divergence signals a difference in trend strength and can be used to identify precise market turning points. PSP is divided into Bullish PSP and Bearish PSP, each applicable for long and short trades.
🟣 Bullish PSP
A Bullish PSP forms when, at a market turning point, the middle candle of one asset closes bearish while the correlated asset closes bullish. This discrepancy indicates weakness in the downtrend and a potential price reversal upward.
Traders can use this as a signal for long (buy) trades. The best approach is to wait for price to return to the wick of the PSP candle, as this area typically acts as a liquidity level.
f PSP forms within an Order Block or Fair Value Gap in a higher timeframe, its reliability increases, allowing for entries with tight stop-loss and optimal risk-to-reward ratios.
🟣 Bearish PSP
A Bearish PSP forms when, at a market turning point, the middle candle of one asset closes bullish while the correlated asset closes bearish. This indicates weakness in the uptrend and a potential price decline.
Traders use this pattern to enter short (sell) trades. The best entry occurs when price retests the wick of the PSP candle, as this level often acts as a resistance zone, pushing price lower.
If PSP aligns with a significant liquidity area or Order Block in a higher timeframe, traders can enter with greater confidence and place their stop-loss just above the PSP wick.
Overall, PSP is a highly effective tool for filtering false signals and improving trade entry precision. Combining PSP with SMT, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps across multiple timeframes allows traders to execute higher-accuracy trades with lower risk.
🔵 Settings
Mode :
2 Symbol : Identifies PSP and PCP between two correlated assets.
3 Symbol : Compares three assets to detect more complex divergences and stronger confirmation signals.
Second Symbol : The second asset used in PSP and correlation calculations.
Third Symbol : Used in three-symbol mode for deeper PSP and PCP analysis.
Filter Precision X Point : Enables or disables filtering for more precise PSP and PCP detection. This filter only identifies PSP and PCP when the base asset's candle qualifies as a Pin Bar.
Trend Effect : By changing the Trend Effect status to "Off," all Pin bars, whether bullish or bearish, are displayed regardless of the current market trend. If the status remains "On," only Pin bars in the direction of the main market trend are shown.
Bullish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Lower Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Lower Shadow to Higher Shadow" settings, you can customize your bullish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bullish Pin bars.
Bearish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Higher Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Higher Shadow to Lower Shadow" settings, you can customize your bearish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bearish Pin bars.
🔵 Conclusion
Precision Swing Point (PSP) is a powerful analytical tool in Smart Money trading strategies, helping traders identify precise market turning points by detecting divergences in candle closures between correlated assets. PSP is classified into Bullish PSP and Bearish PSP, each playing a crucial role in detecting trend weaknesses and determining optimal entry points for long and short trades.
Using the PSP wick as a key liquidity level, integrating it with SMT, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps, and analyzing higher timeframes are effective techniques to enhance trade entries. Ultimately, PSP serves as a complementary tool for improving entry accuracy and reducing unnecessary stop-outs, making it a valuable addition to Smart Money trading methodologies.

ICT Candle Block (fadi)ICT Candle Block
When trading using ICT concepts, it is often beneficial to treat consecutive candles of the same color as a single entity. This approach helps traders identify Order Blocks, liquidity voids, and other key trading signals more effectively.
However, in situations where the market becomes choppy or moves slowly, recognizing continuous price movement can be challenging.
The ICT Candle Block indicator addresses these challenges by combining consecutive candles of the same color into a single entity. It redraws the resulting candles, making price visualization much easier and helping traders quickly identify key trading signals.
FVGs and Blocks
In the above snapshot, FVGs/Liquidity Voids, Order Blocks, and Breaker Blocks are easily identified. By analyzing the combined candles, traders can quickly determine the draw on liquidity and potential price targets using ICT concepts.
Unlike traditional higher timeframes that rigidly combine lower timeframe candles based on specific start and stop times, this indicator operates as a "mixed timeframe." It combines all buying and all selling activities into a single candle, regardless of when the transactions started and ended.
Limitations
There are currently TradingView limitations that affect the functionality of this indicator:
TradingView does not have a Candle object; therefore, this indicator relies on using boxes and lines to mimic the candles. This results in wider candles than expected, leading to misalignment with the time axis below (plotcandle is not the answer).
There is a limit on the number of objects that can be drawn on a chart. A maximum of 500 candles has been set.
A rendering issue may cause a sideways box to appear across the chart. This is a display bug in TradingView; scroll to the left until it clears.
Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator, an advanced tool designed to enhance trading strategies by identifying potential trend reversals through volume dynamics. This script features integrated order block detection, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), and a dynamic take-profit (TP) and stop-loss (SL) system. For an in-depth understanding of the strategy, refer to the "HOW DOES IT WORK?" section below.
Features of the new Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator :
Cumulative Volume Delta-based Strategy
Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) Entry Methods
Dynamic TP/SL System
Customizable Risk Management Settings
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP, and SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The CVDS indicator operates by tracking the net volume difference between buyers and sellers to identify divergences that could indicate potential trend reversals. A cumulative volume delta (CVD) calculation is employed to measure the intensity of these divergences in relation to price movements. The net volume sum is reset every trading day (can be changed from the settings using the anchor period option), and divergences are detected when the cumulative volume crosses the 0-line over or under.
Once a significant divergence is detected, the indicator identifies breakout points, confirmed by either Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Order Blocks (OBs). Depending on your chosen entry mode, the indicator will trigger a buy or sell entry when the confirmation signal aligns with the breakout direction. Alerts for Buy, Sell, Take-Profit, and Stop-Loss are available.
Note that the indicator cannot run on 1-minute and 1-second charts, as it needs to get data from a lower timeframe. 1-minutes & 1-second timeframes are the minimum timeframes in their ranges respectively.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What sets this indicator apart is the combination of volume divergence analysis with advanced price action tools like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). The ability to choose between these methods, along with a dynamic TP/SL system that adapts based on volatility, provides flexibility for traders in any market condition. The backtesting dashboard provides metrics about the performance of the indicator. You can use it to tune the settings for best use in the current ticker. The CVD-based strategy ensures that trades are initiated only when meaningful divergences between volume and price occur, filtering out noise and increasing the likelihood of profitable trades.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Anchor Period: Time anchor period used in CVD calculation. This is essentially the period that the volume delta sum will be reset. Lower timeframes may result in more entries at the cost of less reliable results.
Entry Mode: Choose between FVGs or OBs to trigger your entries based on the confirmation signals.
Retracement Requirement: Enable to confirm the entry after a retracement toward the FVG or OB.
2. Fair Value Gaps
FVG Sensitivity: Modify the sensitivity of FVG detection, allowing for more or fewer gaps to be considered valid.
3. Order Blocks (OB)
Swing Length: Define the swing length to identify OB formations. Shorter lengths find smaller OBs, while longer lengths detect larger structures.
4. TP / SL
TP / SL Method:
a) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
b) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic Risk: The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.
Multi time frame combination signal1. Concept and originality
This indicator was developed with the aim of displaying signals of multiple time frames and moving averages of the fixed time frame different from the current chart. When buying and selling, if you use basic signals such as MACD, RSI, TSI, etc. on a certain time frame, you may miss shorter or longer-term trends. In addition, if a long-term upswing sign occurs and you want to search for a short-term pullback, you may want to use multiple signals of different time frames in combination. Therefore, I aimed to display signals of shorter and longer time frames simultaneously on one chart in addition to the current time frame. Furthermore, I considered a comosite signal that combines each basic signal and moving average line, and combines arbitrary signals of multiple arbitrary time frames in a single indicator.
2. Function
This indicator provides a composite signal that combines multiple basic indicators (MACD, RSI, TSI) and moving average lines on three arbitrary time frames. Other auxiliary functions include Bollinger bands, Ichimoku cloud, Fair Value Gap (FVG), and Order Block (OB). The three time frames can be set independently for each signal.
2.1 Combination signal

If you want to combine each basic indicator with "or", uncheck "Combination signal" and check all the indicators you want to use. Each indicator can also be combined with a moving average. The indicators that can be combined with "Combination signal" are MACD, RSI, TSI and moving average. Bollinger bands, Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, Fair Value Gap (FVG) and Order Block (OB) are displayed alone and cannot be incorporated into "Combination signal".
When you check "Show short/middle/long term signal", the checked signals will be displayed on the chart with ▲ or ▼. ▲ indicates crossover and ▼ indicates crossunder. Short is displayed small and long is displayed large. The short/middle/long time frames can be set separately. It is not necessary that the short is shorter than the middle or long.
2.2 MACD signal
Check "Show MACD signal" to display the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) signal. Check "Show short/middle/long term signal" to display the signal of the checked time frame with ▲ or ▼ on the chart. Short is displayed small, and long is displayed large. The short/middle/long time frames can be set separately. Short does not necessarily have to be shorter than middle or long. EMA is usually used for the moving average of MACD, but this indicator allows you to select the type of moving average from SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, and VWMA. You can enter the base period for Long, Short, and Signal. This period is the period for the selected time frame. Check "Use impulse MACD" to suppress signals in range markets. In this case, "Long length", "Short length", and "Signal length" are ignored and the value of "Impulse MACD length" is applied.
