Volume Disharmony IndicatorThis indicator is designed to detect imbalanced volume compared to the open/close of the corresponding candle body. The idea is that institutions often trade in higher volume within a smaller price range. Identifying these can give an indication if there is a rally or selloff happening. The code looks at the median of all the prior candles from the point of the last trigger and compares them to the range in body of the candles in order to dynamically find a baseline, by which imbalances can be more accurately detected throughout changing market conditions.

Relative volume zone + Smart Order Flow Dynamic S/ROverview:
The Relative Volume Zone + Smart Order Flow with Dynamic S/R indicator is designed to help traders identify key trading opportunities by combining multiple technical components. This script integrates relative volume analysis, order flow detection, VWAP, RSI filtering, and dynamic support and resistance levels to offer a comprehensive view of the market conditions. It is particularly effective on shorter timeframes (M5, M15), making it suitable for scalping and day trading strategies.
Key Components:
1. Relative Volume Zones:
• The script calculates the relative volume by comparing the current volume with the average volume over a defined lookback period (volLookback). When the relative volume exceeds a specified multiplier (volMultiplier), it indicates a high volume zone, signaling potential accumulation or distribution areas.
• Purpose: Identifies high-volume trading zones that may act as significant support or resistance, indicating possible entry or exit points.
2. Smart Order Flow Analysis:
• The indicator uses Volume Delta (the difference between buying and selling volume) and a Cumulative Delta to detect order imbalances in the market.
• Order Imbalance is identified using a moving average of the Volume Delta (orderImbalance), which helps highlight hidden buying or selling pressure.
• Purpose: Reveals market sentiment by showing whether buyers or sellers dominate the market, aiding in the identification of trend reversals or continuations.
3. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):
• VWAP is calculated over a default daily length (vwapLength) to show the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price.
• Purpose: Provides insight into the fair value of the asset, indicating whether the market is in an accumulation or distribution phase.
4. RSI (Relative Strength Index) Filter:
• RSI is used to filter buy and sell signals, preventing trades in overbought or oversold conditions. It is calculated using a specified period (rsiPeriod).
• Purpose: Reduces false signals and improves trade accuracy by only allowing trades when RSI conditions align with volume and order flow signals.
5. Dynamic Support and Resistance Levels:
• The script dynamically plots support and resistance levels based on recent swing highs and lows (swingLookback).
• Purpose: Identifies potential reversal zones where price action may change direction, allowing for more precise entry and exit points.
How It Works:
• Buy Signal:
A buy signal is generated when:
• The price enters a high-volume zone.
• The price crosses above a 5-period moving average.
• The cumulative delta shows more buying pressure (cumulativeDelta > SMA of cumulativeDelta).
• The RSI is below 70 (not in overbought conditions).
• Sell Signal:
A sell signal is generated when:
• The price enters a high-volume zone.
• The price crosses below a 5-period moving average.
• The cumulative delta shows more selling pressure (cumulativeDelta < SMA of cumulativeDelta).
• The RSI is above 30 (not in oversold conditions).
• Dynamic Support and Resistance Lines:
Drawn based on recent swing highs and lows, these lines provide context for potential price reversals or breakouts.
• VWAP and Order Imbalance Lines:
Plotted to show the average traded price and highlight order flow shifts, helping to validate buy/sell signals.
How to Use:
1. Apply the Indicator:
Add the script to your chart and adjust the settings to match your trading style and preferred timeframe (optimized for M5/M15).
2. Interpret the Signals:
Use the buy and sell signals in conjunction with dynamic support/resistance, VWAP, and order imbalance lines to identify high-probability trade setups.
3. Monitor Alerts:
Set alerts for significant order flow events to receive notifications when there is a positive or negative order imbalance, indicating potential market shifts.
What Makes It Unique:
This script is unique because it combines multiple market analysis tools — relative volume zones, smart order flow, VWAP, RSI filtering, and dynamic support/resistance — to provide a well-rounded, multi-dimensional view of the market. This integration allows traders to make more informed decisions by validating signals across various indicators, enhancing overall trading accuracy and effectiveness.
FVG Instantaneous Mitigation Signals [LuxAlgo]The FVG Instantaneous Mitigation Signals indicator detects and highlights "instantaneously" mitigated fair value gaps (FVG), that is FVGs that get mitigated one bar after their creation, returning signals upon mitigation.
Take profit/stop loss areas, as well as a trailing stop loss are also included to complement the signals.
🔶 USAGE
Instantaneous Fair Value Gap mitigation is a new concept introduced in this script and refers to the event of price mitigating a fair value gap one bar after its creation.
The resulting signal sentiment is opposite to the bias of the mitigated fair value gap. As such an instantaneously mitigated bearish FGV results in a bullish signal, while an instantaneously mitigated bullish FGV results in a bearish signal.
Fair value gap areas subject to instantaneous mitigation are highlighted alongside their average level, this level is extended until reached in a direction opposite to the FVG bias and can be used as a potential support/resistance level.
Users can filter out less volatile fair value gaps using the "FVG Width Filter" setting, with higher values highlighting more volatile fair value gaps subject to instantaneous mitigation.
🔹 TP/SL Areas
Users can enable take-profit/stop-loss areas. These are displayed upon a new signal formation, with an area starting from the mitigated FVG area average to this average plus/minus N ATRs, where N is determined by their respective multiplier settings.
Using a higher multiplier will return more distant areas from the price, requiring longer-term variations to be reached.
🔹 Trailing Stop Loss
A trailing-stop loss is included, increasing when the price makes a new higher high or lower low since the trailing has been set. Using a higher trailing stop multiplier will allow its initial position to be further away from the price, reducing its chances of being hit.
The trailing stop can be reset on "Every Signal", whether they are bullish or bearish, or only on an "Inverse Signal", which will reset the trailing when a signal of opposite bias is detected, this will preserve an existing trailing stop when a new signal of the same bias to the present one is detected.
🔶 DETAILS
Fair Value Gaps are ubiquitous to price action traders. These patterns arise when there exists a disparity between supply and demand. The action of price coming back and filling these imbalance areas is referred to as "mitigation" or "rebalancing".
"Instantaneous mitigation" refers to the event of price quickly mitigating a prior fair value gap, which in the case of this script is one bar after their creation. These events are indicative of a market more attentive to imbalances, and more willing to correct disparities in supply and demand.
If the market is particularly sensitive to imbalances correction then these can be excessively corrected, leading to further imbalances, highlighting a potential feedback process.
🔶 SETTINGS
FVG Width Filter: Filter out FVGs with thinner areas from returning a potential signal.
🔹 TP/SL
TP Area: Enable take-profit areas for new signals.
Multiplier: Control the distance from the take profit and the price, with higher values returning more distant TP's.
SL Area: Enable stop-loss areas for new signals.
Multiplier: Control the distance from the stop loss and the price, with higher values returning more distant SL's.
🔹 Trailing Stop
Reset Trailing Stop: Determines when the trailing stop is reset.
Multiplier: Controls the initial position of the trailing stop, with higher values returning more distant trailing stops.
Smart Money Concept [TradingFinder] Major OB + FVG + Liquidity🔵 Introduction
"Smart Money" refers to funds under the control of institutional investors, central banks, funds, market makers, and other financial entities. Ordinary people recognize investments made by those who have a deep understanding of market performance and possess information typically inaccessible to regular investors as "Smart Money".
Consequently, when market movements often diverge from expectations, traders identify the footprints of smart money. For example, when a classic pattern forms in the market, traders take short positions. However, the market might move upward instead. They attribute this contradiction to smart money and seek to capitalize on such inconsistencies in their trades.
The "Smart Money Concept" (SMC) is one of the primary styles of technical analysis that falls under the subset of "Price Action". Price action encompasses various subcategories, with one of the most significant being "Supply and Demand", in which SMC is categorized.
The SMC method aims to identify trading opportunities by emphasizing the impact of large traders (Smart Money) on the market, offering specific patterns, techniques, and trading strategies.
🟣 Key Terms of Smart Money Concept (SMC)
• Market Structure (Trend)
• Change of Character (ChoCh)
• Break of Structure (BoS)
• Order Blocks (Supply and Demand)
• Imbalance (IMB)
• Inefficiency (IFC)
• Fair Value Gap (FVG)
• Liquidity
• Premium and Discount
🔵 How Does the "Smart Money Concept Indicator" Work?
🟣 Market Structure
a. Accumulation
b. Market-Up
c. Distribution
d. Market-Down
a) Accumulation Phase : During the accumulation period, typically following a downtrend, smart money enters the market without significantly affecting the pricing trend.
b) Market-Up Phase : In this phase, the price of an asset moves upward from the accumulation range and begins to rise. Usually, the buying by retail investors is the main driver of this trend, and due to positive market sentiment, it continues.
c) Distribution Phase : The distribution phase, unlike the accumulation stage, occurs after an uptrend. In this phase, smart money attempts to exit the market without causing significant price fluctuations.
d) Market-Down Phase : In this stage, the price of an asset moves downward from the distribution phase, initiating a prolonged downtrend. Smart money liquidates all its positions by creating selling pressure, trapping latecomer investors.
The result of these four phases in the market becomes the market trend.
Types of Trends in Financial Markets :
a. Up-Trend
b. Down Trend
c. Range (No Trend)
a) Up-Trend : The market breaks consecutive highs.
b) Down Trend : The market breaks consecutive lows.
c) No Trend or Range : The market oscillates within a range without breaking either highs or lows.
🟣 Change of Character (ChoCh)
The "ChoCh" or "Change of Character" pattern indicates an initial change in order flow in financial markets. This structural change occurs when a major pivot in the opposite direction of the market trend fails. It signals a potential change in the market trend and can serve as a signal for short-term or long-term trend changes in a trading symbol.
🟣 Break of Structure (BoS)
The "BoS" or "Break of Structure" pattern indicates the continuation of the trend in financial markets. This structure forms when, in an uptrend, the price breaks its ceiling or, in a downtrend, the price breaks its floor.
🟣 Order Blocks (Supply and Demand)
Order blocks consist of supply and demand areas where the likelihood of price reversal is higher. There are six order blocks in this indicator, categorized based on their origin and formation reasons.
a. Demand Main Zone, "ChoCh" Origin.
b. Demand Sub Zone, "ChoCh" Origin.
c. Demand All Zone, "BoS" Origin.
d. Supply Main Zone, "ChoCh" Origin.
e. Supply Sub Zone, "ChoCh" Origin.
f. Supply All Zone, "BoS" Origin.
🟣 FVG | Inefficiency | Imbalance
These three terms are almost synonymous. They describe the presence of gaps between consecutive candle shadows. This inefficiency occurs when the market moves rapidly. Primarily, imbalances and these rapid movements stem from the entry of smart money and the imbalance between buyer and seller power. Therefore, identifying these movements is crucial for traders.
These areas are significant because prices often return to fill these gaps or even before they occur to fill price gaps.
🟣 Liquidity
Liquidity zones are areas where there is a likelihood of congestion of stop-loss orders. Liquidity is considered the driving force of the entire market, and market makers may manipulate the market using these zones. However, in many cases, this does not happen because there is insufficient liquidity in some areas.
Types of Liquidity in Financial Markets :
a. Trend Lines
b. Double Tops | Double Bottoms
c. Triple Tops | Triple Bottoms
d. Support Lines | Resistance Lines
All four types of liquidity in this indicator are automatically identified.
🟣 Premium and Discount
Premium and discount zones can assist traders in making better decisions. For instance, they may sell positions in expensive ranges and buy in cheaper ranges. The closer the price is to the major resistance, the more expensive it is, and the closer it is to the major support, the cheaper it is.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Change of Character (ChoCh) and Break of Structure (BoS)
This indicator detects "ChoCh" and "BoS" in both Minor and Major states. You can turn on the display of these lines by referring to the last part of the settings.
🟣 Order Blocks (Supply and Demand)
Order blocks are Zones where the probability of price reversal is higher. In demand Zones you can buy opportunities and in supply Zones you can check sell opportunities.
The "Refinement" feature allows you to adjust the width of the order block according to your strategy. There are two modes, "Aggressive" and "Defensive," in the "Order Block Refine". The difference between "Aggressive" and "Defensive" lies in the width of the order block.
For risk-averse traders, the "Defensive" mode is suitable as it provides a lower loss limit and a greater reward-to-risk ratio. For risk-taking traders, the "Aggressive" mode is more appropriate. These traders prefer to enter trades at higher prices, and this mode, which has a wider order block width, is more suitable for this group of individuals.
🟣 Fair Value Gap (FVG) | Imbalance (IMB) | Inefficiency (IFC)
In order to identify the "fair value gap" on the chart, it must be analyzed candle by candle. In this process, it is important to pay attention to candles with a large size, and a candle and a candle should be examined before that.
Candles before and after this central candle should have long shadows and their bodies should not overlap with the central candle body. The distance between the shadows of the first and third candles is known as the FVG range.
These areas work in two ways :
• Supply and demand area : In this case, the price reacts to these areas and the trend is reversed.
• Liquidity zone : In this scenario, the price "fills" the zone and then reaches the order block.
Important note : In most cases, the FVG zone of very small width acts as a supply and demand zone, while the zone of significant width acts as a liquidity zone and absorbs price.
When the FVG filter is activated, the FVG regions are filtered based on the specified algorithm.
FVG filter types include the following :
1. Very Aggressive Mode : In addition to the initial condition, an additional condition is considered. For bullish FVG, the maximum price of the last candle must be greater than the maximum price of the middle candle.
Similarly, for a bearish FVG, the minimum price of the last candle must be lower than the minimum price of the middle candle. This mode removes the minimum number of FVGs.
2. Aggressive : In addition to the very aggressive condition, the size of the middle candle is also considered. The size of the center candle should not be small and therefore more FVGs are removed in this case.
3. Defensive : In addition to the conditions of the very aggressive mode, this mode also considers the size of the middle pile, which should be relatively large and make up the majority of the body.
Also, to identify bullish FVGs, the second and third candles must be positive, while for bearish FVGs, the second and third candles must be negative. This mode filters out a significant number of FVGs and keeps only those of good quality.
4. Very Defensive : In addition to the conditions of the defensive mode, in this mode the first and third candles should not be very small-bodied doji candles. This mode filters out most FVGs and only the best quality ones remain.
🟣 Liquidity
These levels are where traders intend to exit their trades. "Market makers" or smart money usually accumulate or distribute their trading positions near these levels, where many retail traders have placed their "stop loss" orders. When liquidity is collected from these losses, the price often reverses.
A "Stop hunt" is a move designed to offset liquidity generated by established stop losses. Banks often use major news events to trigger stop hunts and capture liquidity released into the market. For example, if they intend to execute heavy buy orders, they encourage others to sell through stop-hots.
Consequently, if there is liquidity in the market before reaching the order block area, the validity of that order block is higher. Conversely, if the liquidity is close to the order block, that is, the price reaches the order block before reaching the liquidity limit, the validity of that order block is lower.
🟣 Alert
With the new alert functionality in this indicator, you won't miss any important trading signals. Alerts are activated when the price hits the last order block.
1. It is possible to set alerts for each "symbol" and "time frame". The system will automatically detect both and include them in the warning message.
2. Each alert provides the exact date and time it was triggered. This helps you measure the timeliness of the signal and evaluate its relevance.
3. Alerts include target order block price ranges. The "Proximal" level represents the initial price level strike, while the "Distal" level represents the maximum price gap in the block. These details are included in the warning message.
4. You can customize the alert name through the "Alert Name" entry.
5. Create custom messages for "long" and "short" alerts to be sent with notifications.

See inside Candles: Directionality %; Constituent Bars & GapsSee inside candles based on user-input LTF setting: get data on 'Directionality' of your candle; Gaps (total and Sum; UP and DOWN); Number of Bull or Bear constituent candles
//Features:
-DIRECTIONALITY: compare length of the 'zig-zag' random walk of lower time frame constituent candles, to the full height of the current candle. Resulting % I refer to as 'directionality'.
-GAPs: what i refer to as 'gaps' are also known as Volume imbalances: the gap between previous candles close and current candle's open (if there is one).
--Gaps total (up vs down gaps). Number of Up gaps printed above bar in green, down gaps printed below bar in red.
--Gaps Sum (total summed UP gap, total summed down gaps. Sum of Up gaps printed above bar in green, Sum of down gaps printed below bar in red.
-Candles Total: Numer of LTF up vs down candles within current timeframe candle. Number of up candles printed above bar in green, Number of down candles printed below bar in red.
//USAGE:
-Primary purpose in this was the Directionality aspect. Wanted to get a measure of how choppy vs how directional the internals of a candle were. Idea being that a candle with high % directionality (approaching 100) would imply trending conditions; while a candle which was large range and full bodies but had a low % directionality would imply the internals were back-and-forth and => rebalanced, potentially indicating price may not need to retrace back into it and rebalance further. All rather experimental, please treat it as such: have a play around with it.
-Number of gaps, Sums of up and down gaps, ratio of up and down constituent candles also intended to serve a similar purpose as the above.
-Set the input lower timeframe; this must obviously be lower then your current timeframe. You will significant differences in results depending on the ratio your timeframes (chart timeframe vs user-input timeframe).
//User Inputs:
-Lower timeframe input (setting child candle size within current chart parent candle).
-Choose function from the four listed above.
-typical formating options: Bull color/bear color txt for gaps functions.
-display % unit or not.
-display vertical or horizontal text.
-Set min / max directionality thresholds; and color code results.
-Toggle on/off 'hide results outside of threshold' to declutter the chart.
-choose label style.
//NOTES:
-Directionality thresholds can be set manually; Max and Min thresholds can be set to filter out 'non-extreme' readings.
-Note that directionality % can sometimes exceed 100%, in cases where price trends very strongly and gaps up continuously such that sum of constituent candles is less than total range of parent candle.
-Personally i like the idea of seeking bold, large-range, full bodied candles, with a lower than typical directionality %; indicating that a price move is both significant and it's already done it's rebalancing; I would see this as potentially favourable for continuation (obviously depending on context).

Supply & DemandWe can think of imbalanced as a signal of a huge order being filled.
For those who do not know what imbalanced candle are, an imbalanced candles are formed when the price move with force in a direction.
Taking the last 3 candles, when the wicks the of 1st and 3rd candle does not fully overlap the middle one, an imbalanced candle is formed.
Usually when a huge hands place its order it never gets filled entirely and the price usually comes back to this zone to fulfil the remaining order.
This indicator highlight range defined by previous high and low pivot right before an imbalanced candle.
Zones highlighted become zones to watch to enter a trade and become either supply or demand zone.
Delta Volume Columns Pro [LucF]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays volume delta information calculated with intrabar inspection on historical bars, and feed updates when running in realtime. It is designed to run in a pane and can display either stacked buy/sell volume columns or a signal line which can be calculated and displayed in many different ways.
Five different models are offered to reveal different characteristics of the calculated volume delta information. Many options are offered to visualize the calculations, giving you much leeway in morphing the indicator's visuals to suit your needs. If you value delta volume information, I hope you will find the time required to master Delta Volume Columns Pro well worth the investment. I am confident that if you combine a proper understanding of the indicator's information with an intimate knowledge of the volume idiosyncrasies on the markets you trade, you can extract useful market intelligence using this tool.
█ WARNINGS
1. The indicator only works on markets where volume information is available,
Please validate that your symbol's feed carries volume information before asking me why the indicator doesn't plot values.
2. When you refresh your chart or re-execute the script on the chart, the indicator will repaint because elapsed realtime bars will then recalculate as historical bars.
3. Because the indicator uses different modes of calculation on historical and realtime bars, it's critical that you understand the differences between them. Details are provided further down.
4. Calculations using intrabar inspection on historical bars can only be done from some chart timeframes. See further down for a list of supported timeframes.
If the chart's timeframe is not supported, no historical volume delta will display.
█ CONCEPTS
Chart bars
Three different types of bars are used in charts:
1. Historical bars are bars that have already closed when the script executes on them.
2. The realtime bar is the current, incomplete bar where a script is running on an open market. There is only one active realtime bar on your chart at any given time.
The realtime bar is where alerts trigger.
3. Elapsed realtime bars are bars that were calculated when they were realtime bars but have since closed.
When a script re-executes on a chart because the browser tab is refreshed or some of its inputs are changed, elapsed realtime bars are recalculated as historical bars.
Why does this indicator use two modes of calculation?
Historical bars on TradingView charts contain OHLCV data only, which is insufficient to calculate volume delta on them with any level of precision. To mine more detailed information from those bars we look at intrabars , i.e., bars from a smaller timeframe (we call it the intrabar timeframe ) that are contained in one chart bar. If your chart Is running at 1D on a 24x7 market for example, most 1D chart bars will contain 24 underlying 1H bars in their dilation. On historical bars, this indicator looks at those intrabars to amass volume delta information. If the intrabar is up, its volume goes in the Buy bin, and inversely for the Sell bin. When price does not move on an intrabar, the polarity of the last known movement is used to determine in which bin its volume goes.
In realtime, we have access to price and volume change for each update of the chart. Because a 1D chart bar can be updated tens of thousands of times during the day, volume delta calculations on those updates is much more precise. This precision, however, comes at a price:
— The script must be running on the chart for it to keep calculating in realtime.
— If you refresh your chart you will lose all accumulated realtime calculations on elapsed realtime bars, and the realtime bar.
Elapsed realtime bars will recalculate as historical bars, i.e., using intrabar inspection, and the realtime bar's calculations will reset.
When the script recalculates elapsed realtime bars as historical bars, the values on those bars will change, which means the script repaints in those conditions.
— When the indicator first calculates on a chart containing an incomplete realtime bar, it will count ALL the existing volume on the bar as Buy or Sell volume,
depending on the polarity of the bar at that point. This will skew calculations for that first bar. Scripts have no access to the history of a realtime bar's previous updates,
and intrabar inspection cannot be used on realtime bars, so this is the only to go about this.
— Even if alerts only trigger upon confirmation of their conditions after the realtime bar closes, they are repainting alerts
because they would perhaps not have calculated the same way using intrabar inspection.
— On markets like stocks that often have different EOD and intraday feeds and volume information,
the volume's scale may not be the same for the realtime bar if your chart is at 1D, for example,
and the indicator is using an intraday timeframe to calculate on historical bars.
— Any chart timeframe can be used in realtime mode, but plots that include moving averages in their calculations may require many elapsed realtime bars before they can calculate.
You might prefer drastically reducing the periods of the moving averages, or using the volume columns mode, which displays instant values, instead of the line.
Volume Delta Balances
This indicator uses a variety of methods to evaluate five volume delta balances and derive other values from those balances. The five balances are:
1 — On Bar Balance : This is the only balance using instant values; it is simply the subtraction of the Sell volume from the Buy volume on the bar.
2 — Average Balance : Calculates a distinct EMA for both the Buy and Sell volumes, and subtracts the Sell EMA from the Buy EMA.
3 — Momentum Balance : Starts by calculating, separately for both Buy and Sell volumes, the difference between the same EMAs used in "Average Balance" and
an SMA of double the period used for the "Average Balance" EMAs. The difference for the Sell side is subtracted from the difference for the Buy side,
and an RSI of that value is calculated and brought over the −50/+50 scale.
4 — Relative Balance : The reference values used in the calculation are the Buy and Sell EMAs used in the "Average Balance".
From those, we calculate two intermediate values using how much the instant Buy and Sell volumes on the bar exceed their respective EMA — but with a twist.
If the bar's Buy volume does not exceed the EMA of Buy volume, a zero value is used. The same goes for the Sell volume with the EMA of Sell volume.
Once we have our two intermediate values for the Buy and Sell volumes exceeding their respective MA, we subtract them. The final "Relative Balance" value is an ALMA of that subtraction.
The rationale behind using zero values when the bar's Buy/Sell volume does not exceed its EMA is to only take into account the more significant volume.
If both instant volume values exceed their MA, then the difference between the two is the signal's value.
The signal is called "relative" because the intermediate values are the difference between the instant Buy/Sell volumes and their respective MA.
This balance flatlines when the bar's Buy/Sell volumes do not exceed their EMAs, which makes it useful to spot areas where trader interest dwindles, such as consolidations.
The smaller the period of the final value's ALMA, the more easily you will see the balance flatline. These flat zones should be considered no-trade zones.
5 — Percent Balance : This balance is the ALMA of the ratio of the "On Bar Balance" value, i.e., the volume delta balance on the bar (which can be positive or negative),
over the total volume for that bar.
From the balances and marker conditions, two more values are calculated:
1 — Marker Bias : It sums the up/down (+1/‒1) occurrences of the markers 1 to 4 over a period you define, so it ranges from −4 to +4, times the period.
Its calculation will depend on the modes used to calculate markers 3 and 4.
2 — Combined Balances : This is the sum of the bull/bear (+1/−1) states of each of the five balances, so it ranges from −5 to +5.
█ FEATURES
The indicator has two main modes of operation: Columns and Line .
Columns
• In Columns mode you can display stacked Buy/Sell volume columns.
• The buy section always appears above the centerline, the sell section below.
• The top and bottom sections can be colored independently using eight different methods.
• The EMAs of the Buy/Sell values can be displayed (these are the same EMAs used to calculate the "Average Balance").
Line
• Displays one of seven signals: the five balances or one of two complementary values, i.e., the "Marker Bias" or the "Combined Balances".
• You can color the line and its fill using independent calculation modes to pack more information in the display.
You can thus appraise the state of 3 different values using the line itself, its color and the color of its fill.
• A "Divergence Levels" feature will use the line to automatically draw expanding levels on divergence events.
Default settings
Using the indicator's default settings, this is the information displayed:
• The line is calculated on the "Average Balance".
• The line's color is determined by the bull/bear state of the "Percent Balance".
• The line's fill gradient is determined by the advances/declines of the "Momentum Balance".
• The orange divergence dots are calculated using discrepancies between the polarity of the "On Bar Balance" and the chart's bar.
• The divergence levels are determined using the line's level when a divergence occurs.
• The background's fill gradient is calculated on advances/declines of the "Marker Bias".
• The chart bars are colored using advances/declines of the "Relative Balance". Divergences are shown in orange.
• The intrabar timeframe is automatically determined from the chart's timeframe so that a minimum of 50 intrabars are used to calculate volume delta on historical bars.
Alerts
The configuration of the marker conditions explained further is what determines the conditions that will trigger alerts created from this script. Note that simply selecting the display of markers does not create alerts. To create an alert on this script, you must use ALT-A from the chart. You can create multiple alerts triggering on different conditions from this same script; simply configure the markers so they define the trigger conditions for each alert before creating the alert. The configuration of the script's inputs is saved with the alert, so from then on you can change them without affecting the alert. Alert messages will mention the marker(s) that triggered the specific alert event. Keep in mind, when creating alerts on small chart timeframes, that discrepancies between alert triggers and markers displayed on your chart are to be expected. This is because the alert and your chart are running two distinct instances of the indicator on different servers and different feeds. Also keep in mind that while alerts only trigger on confirmed conditions, they are calculated using realtime calculation mode, which entails that if you refresh your chart and elapsed realtime bars recalculate as historical bars using intrabar inspection, markers will not appear in the same places they appeared in realtime. So it's important to understand that even though the alert conditions are confirmed when they trigger, these alerts will repaint.
Let's go through the sections of the script's inputs.
Columns
The size of the Buy/Sell columns always represents their respective importance on the bar, but the coloring mode for tops and bottoms is independent. The default setup uses a standard coloring mode where the Buy/Sell columns are always in the bull/bear color with a higher intensity for the winning side. Seven other coloring modes allow you to pack more information in the columns. When choosing to color the top columns using a bull/bear gradient on "Average Balance", for example, you will have bull/bear colored tops. In order for the color of the bottom columns to continue to show the instant bar balance, you can then choose the "On Bar Balance — Dual Solid Colors" coloring mode to make those bars the color of the winning side for that bar. You can display the averages of the Buy and Sell columns. If you do, its coloring is controlled through the "Line" and "Line fill" sections below.
Line and Line fill
You can select the calculation mode and the thickness of the line, and independent calculations to determine the line's color and fill.
Zero Line
The zero line can display dots when all five balances are bull/bear.
Divergences
You first select the detection mode. Divergences occur whenever the up/down direction of the signal does not match the up/down polarity of the bar. Divergences are used in three components of the indicator's visuals: the orange dot, colored chart bars, and to calculate the divergence levels on the line. The divergence levels are dynamic levels that automatically build from the line's values on divergence events. On consecutive divergences, the levels will expand, creating a channel. This implementation of the divergence levels corresponds to my view that divergences indicate anomalies, hesitations, points of uncertainty if you will. It precludes any attempt to identify a directional bias to divergences. Accordingly, the levels merely take note of divergence events and mark those points in time with levels. Traders then have a reference point from which they can evaluate further movement. The bull/bear/neutral colors used to plot the levels are also congruent with this view in that they are determined by the line's position relative to the levels, which is how I think divergences can be put to the most effective use. One of the coloring modes for the line's fill uses advances/declines in the line after divergence events.
Background
The background can show a bull/bear gradient on six different calculations. As with other gradients, you can adjust its brightness to make its importance proportional to how you use it in your analysis.
Chart bars
Chart bars can be colored using seven different methods. You have the option of emptying the body of bars where volume does not increase, as does my TLD indicator, and you can choose whether you want to show divergences.
Intrabar Timeframe
This is the intrabar timeframe that will be used to calculate volume delta using intrabar inspection on historical bars. You can choose between four modes. The three "Auto-steps" modes calculate, from the chart's timeframe, the intrabar timeframe where the said number of intrabars will make up the dilation of chart bars. Adjustments are made for non-24x7 markets. "Fixed" mode allows you to select the intrabar timeframe you want. Checking the "Show TF" box will display in the lower-right corner the intrabar timeframe used at any given moment. The proper selection of the intrabar timeframe is important. It must achieve maximal granularity to produce precise results while not unduly slowing down calculations, or worse, causing runtime errors. Note that historical depth will vary with the intrabar timeframe. The smaller the timeframe, the shallower historical plots you will be.
Markers
Markers appear when the required condition has been confirmed on a closed bar. The configuration of the markers when you create an alert is what determines when the alert will trigger. Five markers are available:
• Balances Agreement : All five balances are either bullish or bearish.
• Double Bumps : A double bump is two consecutive up/down bars with +/‒ volume delta, and rising Buy/Sell volume above its average.
• Divergence confirmations : A divergence is confirmed up/down when the chosen balance is up/down on the previous bar when that bar was down/up, and this bar is up/down.
• Balance Shifts : These are bull/bear transitions of the selected signal.
• Marker Bias Shifts : Marker bias shifts occur when it crosses into bull/bear territory.
Periods
Allows control over the periods of the different moving averages used to calculate the balances.
Volume Discrepancies
Stock exchanges do not report the same volume for intraday and daily (or higher) resolutions. Other variations in how volume information is reported can also occur in other markets, namely Forex, where volume irregularities can even occur between different intraday timeframes. This will cause discrepancies between the total volume on the bar at the chart's timeframe, and the total volume calculated by adding the volume of the intrabars in that bar's dilation. This does not necessarily invalidate the volume delta information calculated from intrabars, but it tells us that we are using partial volume data. A mechanism to detect chart vs intrabar timeframe volume discrepancies is provided. It allows you to define a threshold percentage above which the background will indicate a difference has been detected.
Other Settings
You can control here the display of the gray dot reminder on realtime bars, and the display of error messages if you are using a chart timeframe that is not greater than the fixed intrabar timeframe, when you use that mode. Disabling the message can be useful if you only use realtime mode at chart timeframes that do not support intrabar inspection.
█ RAMBLINGS
On Volume Delta
Volume is arguably the best complement to interpret price action, and I consider volume delta to be the most effective way of processing volume information. In periods of low-volatility price consolidations, volume will typically also be lower than normal, but slight imbalances in the trend of the buy/sell volume balance can sometimes help put early odds on the direction of the break from consolidation. Additionally, the progression of the volume imbalance can help determine the proximity of the breakout. I also find volume delta and the number of divergences very useful to evaluate the strength of trends. In trends, I am looking for "slow and steady", i.e., relatively low volatility and pauses where price action doesn't look like world affairs are being reassessed. In my personal mythology, this type of trend is often more resilient than high-volatility breakouts, especially when volume balance confirms the general agreement of traders signaled by the low-volatility usually accompanying this type of trend. The volume action on pauses will often help me decide between aggressively taking profits, tightening a stop or going for a longer-term movement. As for reversals, they generally occur in high-volatility areas where entering trades is more expensive and riskier. While the identification of counter-trend reversals fascinates many traders to no end, they represent poor opportunities in my view. Volume imbalances often precede reversals, but I prefer to use volume delta information to identify the areas following reversals where I can confirm them and make relatively low-cost entries with better odds.
On "Buy/Sell" Volume
Buying or selling volume are misnomers, as every unit of volume transacted is both bought and sold by two different traders. While this does not keep me from using the terms, there is no such thing as “buy only” or “sell only” volume. Trader lingo is riddled with peculiarities.
Divergences
The divergence detection method used here relies on a difference between the direction of a signal and the polarity (up/down) of a chart bar. When using the default "On Bar Balance" to detect divergences, however, only the bar's volume delta is used. You may wonder how there can be divergences between buying/selling volume information and price movement on one bar. This will sometimes be due to the calculation's shortcomings, but divergences may also occur in instances where because of order book structure, it takes less volume to increase the price of an asset than it takes to decrease it. As usual, divergences are points of interest because they reveal imbalances, which may or may not become turning points. To your pattern-hungry brain, the divergences displayed by this indicator will — as they do on other indicators — appear to often indicate turnarounds. My opinion is that reality is generally quite sobering and I have no reliable information that would tend to prove otherwise. Exercise caution when using them. Consequently, I do not share the overwhelming enthusiasm of traders in identifying bullish/bearish divergences. For me, the best course of action when a divergence occurs is to wait and see what happens from there. That is the rationale underlying how my divergence levels work; they take note of a signal's level when a divergence occurs, and it's the signal's behavior from that point on that determines if the post-divergence action is bullish/bearish.
Superfluity
In "The Bed of Procrustes", Nassim Nicholas Taleb writes: To bankrupt a fool, give him information . This indicator can display lots of information. While learning to use a new indicator inevitably requires an adaptation period where we put it through its paces and try out all its options, once you have become used to it and decide to adopt it, rigorously eliminate the components you don't use and configure the remaining ones so their visual prominence reflects their relative importance in your analysis. I tried to provide flexible options for traders to control this indicator's visuals for that exact reason — not for window dressing.
█ LIMITATIONS
• This script uses a special characteristic of the `security()` function allowing the inspection of intrabars — which is not officially supported by TradingView.
It has the advantage of permitting a more robust calculation of volume delta than other methods on historical bars, but also has its limits.
• Intrabar inspection only works on some chart timeframes: 3, 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month.
The script’s code can be modified to run on other resolutions.
• When the difference between the chart’s timeframe and the intrabar timeframe is too great, runtime errors will occur. The Auto-Steps selection mechanisms should avoid this.
• All volume is not created equally. Its source, components, quality and reliability will vary considerably with sectors and instruments.
The higher the quality, the more reliably volume delta information can be used to guide your decisions.
You should make it your responsibility to understand the volume information provided in the data feeds you use. It will help you make the most of volume delta.
█ NOTES
For traders
• The Data Window shows key values for the indicator.
• While this indicator displays some of the same information calculated in my Delta Volume Columns ,
I have elected to make it a separate publication so that traders continue to have a simpler alternative available to them. Both code bases will continue to evolve separately.
• All gradients used in this indicator determine their brightness intensities using advances/declines in the signal—not their relative position in a pre-determined scale.
• Volume delta being relative, by nature, it is particularly well-suited to Forex markets, as it filters out quite elegantly the cyclical volume data characterizing the sector.
If you are interested in volume delta, consider having a look at my other "Delta Volume" indicators:
• Delta Volume Realtime Action displays realtime volume delta and tick information on the chart.
• Delta Volume Candles builds volume delta candles on the chart.
• Delta Volume Columns is a simpler version of this indicator.
For coders
• I use the `f_c_gradientRelativePro()` from the PineCoders Color Gradient Framework to build my gradients.
This function has the advantage of allowing begin/end colors for both the bull and bear colors. It also allows us to define the number of steps allowed for each gradient.
I use this to modulate the gradients so they perform optimally on the combination of the signal used to calculate advances/declines,
but also the nature of the visual component the gradient applies to. I use fewer steps for choppy signals and when the gradient is used on discrete visual components
such as volume columns or chart bars.
• I use the PineCoders Coding Conventions for Pine to write my scripts.
• I used functions modified from the PineCoders MTF Selection Framework for the selection of timeframes.

Concretum BandsDefinition
The Concretum Bands indicator recreates the Upper and Lower Bound of the Noise Area described in the paper "Beat the Market: An Effective Intraday Momentum Strategy for S&P500 ETF (SPY)" published by Concretum founder Zarattini, along with Barbon and Aziz, in May 2024.
Below we provide all the information required to understand how the indicator is calculated, the rationale behind it and how people can use it.
Idea Behind
The indicator aims to outline an intraday price region where the stock is expected to move without indicating any demand/supply imbalance. When the price crosses the boundaries of the Noise Area, it suggests a significant imbalance that may trigger an intraday trend.
How the Indicator is Calculated
The bands at time HH:MM are computed by taking the open price of day t and then adding/subtracting the average absolute move over the last n days from market open to minute HH:MM . The bands are also adjusted to account for overnight gaps. A volatility multiplier can be used to increase/decrease the width of the bands, similar to other well-known technical bands. The bands described in the paper were computed using a lookback period (length) of 14 days and a Volatility Multiplier of 1. Users can easily adjust these settings.
How to use the indicator
A trader may use this indicator to identify intraday moves that exceed the average move over the most recent period. A break outside the bands could be used as a signal of significant demand/supply imbalance.
Trend Gazer v5# Trend Gazer v5: Professional Multi-Timeframe ICT Analysis System
## 📊 Overview
**Trend Gazer v5** is a comprehensive institutional-grade trading system that synthesizes multiple proven methodologies into a unified analytical framework. This indicator combines **ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts**, **Smart Money Structure**, **Order Block detection**, **Fair Value Gaps**, and **volumetric analysis** to provide traders with high-probability trade setups backed by institutional footprints.
Unlike fragmented indicators that force traders to switch between multiple tools, Trend Gazer v5 delivers a **holistic market view** in a single overlay, eliminating analysis paralysis and enabling confident decision-making.
---
## 🎯 Why This Combination is Necessary
### The Problem with Single-Concept Indicators
Traditional indicators suffer from three critical flaws:
1. **Isolated Context** - Price action, volume, and structure are analyzed separately, creating conflicting signals
2. **Timeframe Blindness** - Single-timeframe analysis misses institutional activity occurring across multiple timeframes
3. **Lagging Confirmation** - Waiting for one indicator to confirm another causes missed entries and late exits
### The Institutional Trading Reality
Professional traders and institutions operate across **multiple dimensions simultaneously**:
- **Structural Context**: Where are we in the market cycle? (CHoCH, SiMS, BoMS)
- **Order Flow**: Where is institutional supply and demand concentrated? (Order Blocks)
- **Inefficiencies**: Where are price imbalances that must be filled? (Fair Value Gaps)
- **Momentum Context**: Is volume expanding or contracting? (VWC/TBOSI)
- **Mean Reversion Points**: Where do institutions expect rebounds? (NPR/BB, EMAs)
**Trend Gazer v5 unifies these dimensions**, creating a complete picture of market microstructure that individual indicators cannot provide.

## 🔬 Core Analytical Framework
### 1️⃣ ICT Donchian Smart Money Structure
**Purpose**: Identify institutional market structure shifts that precede major moves.
**Components**:
- **CHoCH (Change of Character)** - Market structure break signaling trend exhaustion
- `1.CHoCH` (Bullish) - Lower low broken, shift to bullish structure
- `A.CHoCH` (Bearish) - Higher high broken, shift to bearish structure
- **SiMS (Shift in Market Structure)** - Initial structure shift (2nd occurrence)
- **BoMS (Break of Market Structure)** - Continuation structure (3rd+ occurrence)
**Why It's Essential**:
Retail traders react to price changes. Institutions **create** price changes by breaking structure. By detecting these shifts using **Donchian channels** (the purest form of high/low tracking), we identify the exact moments when institutional bias changes.
**Credit**: Based on *ICT Donchian Smart Money Structure* by Zeiierman (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0)
---
### 2️⃣ Multi-Timeframe Order Block Detection
**Purpose**: Map institutional supply/demand zones where price is likely to reverse.
**Methodology**:
Order Blocks represent the **last opposite-direction candle** before a strong move. These zones indicate where institutions accumulated (bullish OB) or distributed (bearish OB) positions.
**Multi-Timeframe Coverage**:
- **1-minute**: Scalping zones for day traders
- **3-minute**: Short-term swing zones
- **15-minute**: Intraday institutional zones
- **60-minute**: Daily swing zones
- **Current TF**: Dynamic adaptation to any chart timeframe
**Key Features**:
- **Bounce Detection** - Identifies when price rebounds from OB zones (Signal 7: 🎯 OB Bounce)
- **Breaker Tracking** - Monitors when OBs are violated, converting bullish OBs to resistance and vice versa
- **Visual Rendering** - Color-coded boxes with transparency showing OB strength
- **OB Direction Filter** - Blocks contradictory signals (no SELL in bullish OB, no BUY in bearish OB)
**Why MTF Order Blocks Matter**:
A 60-minute Order Block represents institutional positioning at a larger timeframe. When combined with a 3-minute entry signal, you're trading **with** the big players, not against them.
---
### 3️⃣ Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
**Purpose**: Identify price inefficiencies that institutional traders must eventually fill.
**What Are FVGs?**:
Fair Value Gaps occur when price moves so rapidly that it leaves an **imbalance** - a gap between the high of one candle and the low of the candle two bars later (or vice versa). Institutions view these as inefficient pricing that must be corrected.
**Detection Logic**:
```
Bullish FVG: high < low → Gap up = Bearish imbalance (expect downward fill)
Bearish FVG: low > high → Gap down = Bullish imbalance (expect upward fill)
```
**Visual Design**:
- **Bullish FVG**: Green boxes (support zones where price should bounce)
- **Bearish FVG**: Red boxes (resistance zones where price should reject)
- **Mitigation Tracking**: FVGs disappear when filled, signaling completion
- **Volume Attribution**: Each FVG tracks associated buying/selling volume
**Why FVGs Are Critical**:
Institutions operate on **efficiency**. Gaps represent inefficiency. When price returns to fill a gap, it's not random - it's institutional traders **correcting market inefficiency**. Trading into FVG fills offers exceptional risk/reward.
---
### 4️⃣ Volumetric Weighted Cloud (VWC/TBOSI)
**Purpose**: Detect momentum shifts and trend strength using volume-weighted price action.
**Mechanism**:
VWC applies **volatility weighting** to moving averages, creating a dynamic cloud that expands during high-volatility trends and contracts during consolidation.
**Multi-Timeframe Analysis**:
- **1m, 3m, 5m**: Micro-scalping momentum
- **15m**: Intraday trend confirmation
- **60m, 240m**: Swing trade trend validation
**Signal Generation**:
- **VWC Switch (Signal 2)**: When cloud color flips (red → green or green → red), indicating momentum reversal
- **VWC Status Table**: Real-time display of trend direction across all timeframes
**Why Volume-Weighting Matters**:
Traditional moving averages treat all bars equally. VWC gives **more weight to high-volume bars**, ensuring that signals reflect actual institutional participation, not low-volume noise.
---
### 5️⃣ Non-Repaint STDEV (NPR) & Bollinger Bands
**Purpose**: Identify extreme mean-reversion points without repainting.
**Problem with Traditional Indicators**:
Many indicators **repaint** - they change past values when new data arrives, making backtests misleading. NPR uses **lookahead bias prevention** to ensure signals remain fixed.
**Configuration**:
- **15-minute NPR/BB**: Intraday volatility bands
- **60-minute NPR/BB**: Swing trade extremes
- **Multiple Kernel Options**: Exponential, Simple, Double Exponential, Triple Exponential for different smoothing profiles
**Signal Logic (Signal 8)**:
- **BUY**: Price closes **inside** lower band (not just touching it) → Extreme oversold with institutional absorption likely
- **SELL**: Price closes **inside** upper band → Extreme overbought with institutional distribution likely
**Why NPR is Superior**:
Repainting indicators give traders false confidence in backtests. NPR ensures every signal you see in history is **exactly** what a trader would have seen in real-time.
---
### 6️⃣ 💎 STRONG CHoCH Pattern Detection
**Purpose**: Identify the highest-probability setups when multiple CHoCH confirmations align within a tight timeframe.
**Pattern Logic**:
**STRONG BUY Pattern**:
```
1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH (within 20 bars)
```
This sequence indicates:
1. Initial bullish structure shift
2. Bearish retest (pullback)
3. **Renewed bullish confirmation** - Institutions are re-accumulating after shaking out weak hands
**STRONG SELL Pattern**:
```
A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH (within 20 bars)
```
This sequence indicates:
1. Initial bearish structure shift
2. Bullish retest (dead cat bounce)
3. **Renewed bearish confirmation** - Institutions are re-distributing after trapping longs
**Visual Display**:
```
💎 BUY
```
- **0% transparency** (fully opaque) - Maximum visual priority
- Displayed **immediately** when pattern completes (no additional signal required)
- Independent of Market Structure filter (pattern itself is the confirmation)
**Why STRONG Signals Are Different**:
- **Triple Confirmation**: Three structure shifts eliminate false breakouts
- **Tight Timeframe**: 20-bar window ensures institutional conviction, not random noise
- **Automatic Display**: No waiting for price action - the pattern itself triggers the alert
- **Historical Validation**: This specific sequence has proven to precede major institutional moves
**Risk Management**:
STRONG signals offer the best risk/reward because:
1. Stop loss can be placed beyond the middle CHoCH (tight risk)
2. Target can be set at next major structure level (large reward)
3. Pattern failure is immediately evident (quick exit if wrong)
---
### 7️⃣ Multi-EMA Framework
**Purpose**: Provide dynamic support/resistance and trend context.
**EMA Configuration**:
- **EMA 7**: Micro-trend (scalping)
- **EMA 20**: Short-term trend
- **EMA 50**: Institutional pivot (Signal 6: EMA50 Bounce)
- **EMA 100**: Mid-term trend filter
- **EMA 200**: Major institutional support/resistance
- **EMA 400, 800**: Macro trend context
**Visual Fills**:
- Color-coded fills between EMAs create **visual trend strength zones**
- Convergence = consolidation
- Divergence = trending market
**Why 7 EMAs?**:
Each EMA represents a different **participant timeframe**:
- EMA 7/20: Day traders and scalpers
- EMA 50/100: Swing traders
- EMA 200/400/800: Position traders and institutions
When all EMAs align, **all participant types agree on direction** - the highest-probability trend trades.

## 🚀 8-Signal Trading System
Trend Gazer v5 employs **8 distinct signal conditions** (all enabled by default), each designed to capture different market regimes:
### ⭐ Signal Hierarchy & Trading Philosophy
**IMPORTANT**: Not all signals are created equal. The indicator displays a hierarchy of signal quality:
**PRIMARY SIGNALS (Trade These)**:
- 💎 **STRONG BUY/SELL** - Triple-confirmed CHoCH patterns (highest priority)
- 🌟 **Star Signals (S7, S8)** - High-probability institutional zone reactions
- Signal 7: Order Block Bounce
- Signal 8: 60m NPR/BB Bounce
**AUXILIARY SIGNALS (Confirmation & Context)**:
- **Signals 1-6** - Use these as:
- **Confirmation** for Star Signals (when multiple signals align)
- **Context** for understanding market conditions
- **Early warnings** of potential moves (validate before trading)
- **Additional filters** (e.g., "only trade Star Signals that also have Signal 1")
**Trading Recommendation**:
- **Conservative Traders**: Trade ONLY 💎 STRONG and 🌟 Star Signals
- **Moderate Traders**: Trade Star Signals + validated auxiliary signals (2+ signal confirmation)
- **Active Traders**: Use all signals with proper risk management
The visual transparency system reinforces this hierarchy:
- 0% transparent = STRONG (💎) - Highest conviction
- 50% transparent = Star (🌟) + OB signals - High quality
- 70% transparent = Auxiliary (S1-S6) - Supplementary information
### Signal 1: RSI Shift + Structure (AND Logic)
**Strictest Signal** - Requires both RSI momentum confirmation AND structure change.
- **Use Case**: High-conviction trades in trending markets
- **Frequency**: Least frequent, highest accuracy
### Signal 2: VWC Switch (OR Logic)
**Most Frequent Signal** - Triggers on any VWC color flip across monitored timeframes.
- **Use Case**: Capturing early momentum shifts
- **Frequency**: Most frequent, good for active traders
### Signal 3: Structure Change
**Bar Color Change with RSI Confirmation** - Detects when candle color shifts with supporting RSI.
- **Use Case**: Trend continuation trades
- **Frequency**: Moderate
### Signal 4: BB Breakout + RSI
**Bollinger Band Breakout Reversal** - Price breaks band then immediately reverses.
- **Use Case**: Fade false breakouts
- **Frequency**: Moderate, excellent risk/reward
### Signal 5: BB/EMA50 Break
**Aggressive Breakout Signal** - Price breaks both BB and EMA50 simultaneously.
- **Use Case**: Momentum breakout trades
- **Frequency**: Moderate-high
### Signal 6: EMA50 Bounce Reversal
**Mean Reversion at EMA50** - Price touches EMA50 and bounces.
- **Use Case**: Trading pullbacks in strong trends
- **Frequency**: Moderate, reliable
### Signal 7: 🌟 OB Bounce (Star Signal)
**Order Block Bounce** - Price enters OB zone and reverses.
- **Use Case**: Institutional zone reactions
- **Frequency**: Low, but extremely high quality
- **Special Features**:
- 🎯 **OB Bounce Label**: `🌟 🎯 BUY/SELL ` - Actual Signal 7 bounce from visible OB
- 📍 **In OB Label**: `📍 BUY/SELL ` - Other signals (S1-6, S8) occurring inside an OB zone
- **OB Direction Filter**: Blocks contradictory signals (no SELL in bullish OB, no BUY in bearish OB)
### Signal 8: 🌟 60m NPR/BB Bounce (Star Signal)
**Extreme Mean-Reversion** - Price closes **inside** 60m NPR/BB bands at extremes.
- **Use Case**: Capturing institutional absorption at extremes
- **Frequency**: Low, exceptional win rate
- **Special Logic**: Candle close must be **INSIDE** bands, not just touching (prevents false breakouts)
### 💎 STRONG Signals (Bonus)
**CHoCH Pattern Completion** - Triple-confirmed structure shifts.
- **STRONG BUY**: `1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH (≤20 bars)`
- **STRONG SELL**: `A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH (≤20 bars)`
- **Display**: Immediate upon pattern completion (independent signal)
- **Use Case**: Highest-conviction institutional trend shifts
---
## 🎨 Visual Design Philosophy
### Signal Hierarchy via Transparency
**0% Transparency (Opaque)**:
- 💎 **STRONG BUY/SELL** - Highest priority, institutional pattern confirmation
**50% Transparency**:
- 🌟 **Star Signals** (S7, S8) - High-quality mean reversion
- 🎯 **OB Bounce** - Institutional zone reaction
- 📍 **In OB** - Enhanced signal in institutional zone
- **CHoCH Labels** (1.CHoCH, A.CHoCH) - Structure shift markers
**70% Transparency**:
- **Regular Signals** (S1-S6) - Standard trade setups
This visual hierarchy ensures traders **instantly recognize** high-priority setups without analysis paralysis.
### Color Scheme: Japanese Candlestick Convention
**Bullish = Red | Bearish = Blue/Green**
This follows traditional Japanese candlestick methodology where:
- **Red (Yang)**: Positive energy, rising prices, bullish
- **Blue/Green (Yin)**: Negative energy, falling prices, bearish
While Western conventions often reverse this, we maintain **ICT and institutional conventions** for consistency with professional trading rooms.
---
## 📡 Alert System
### Any Alert (Automatic)

## 📚 How to Use
### For Scalpers (1m-5m Charts)
1. Enable **1m and 3m Order Blocks**
2. Watch for **Signal 2 (VWC Switch)** or **Signal 5 (BB/EMA50 Break)**
3. Confirm with **1m/3m MTF OB** as support/resistance
4. Use **FVGs** for micro-target setting
5. Set alerts for **Star BUY/SELL** for highest-quality scalps
### For Day Traders (15m-60m Charts)
1. Enable **15m and 60m Order Blocks**
2. Wait for **CHoCH** to establish bias
3. Trade **Signal 7 (OB Bounce)** or **Signal 8 (60m NPR/BB Bounce)**
4. Use **EMA 50/100** as dynamic stop placement
5. Set alerts for **💎 STRONG BUY/SELL** for major moves
### For Swing Traders (4H-Daily Charts)
1. Enable **60m Order Blocks** (will render as larger zones on HTF)
2. Wait for **Market Structure confirmation** (CHoCH)
3. Focus on **Signal 1 (RSI Shift + Structure)** for highest conviction
4. Use **EMA 200/400/800** for macro trend alignment
5. Set alerts for **Bullish/Bearish CHoCH** to catch structure shifts early
### Universal Strategy (Recommended Approach)
1. **Focus on Primary Signals First** - Build your track record with 💎 STRONG and 🌟 Star Signals only
2. **Wait for Market Structure** - Never trade against CHoCH direction
3. **Use Auxiliary Signals for Confirmation** - When a Star Signal appears, check if auxiliary signals (S1-6) also confirm
4. **Respect Order Blocks** - Fade signals that contradict OB direction
5. **Use FVGs for Targets** - Price gravitates toward unfilled gaps
6. **Gradually Incorporate Auxiliary Signals** - Once profitable with primary signals, experiment with validated auxiliary setups
### Signal Quality Statistics (Typical Observation)
Based on common market behavior patterns:
**💎 STRONG Signals**:
- Frequency: Rare (1-3 per week on daily charts)
- Win Rate: Very High (70-85% when proper risk management applied)
- Risk/Reward: Excellent (1:3 to 1:5+ typical)
**🌟 Star Signals (S7, S8)**:
- Frequency: Moderate (2-5 per day on lower timeframes)
- Win Rate: High (60-75% when aligned with structure)
- Risk/Reward: Good (1:2 to 1:4 typical)
**Auxiliary Signals (S1-6)**:
- Frequency: High (multiple per hour on active timeframes)
- Win Rate: Moderate (50-65% standalone, higher when used as confirmation)
- Risk/Reward: Variable (1:1 to 1:3 typical)
**Key Insight**: Trading only primary signals reduces trade frequency but dramatically improves consistency and psychological ease.

# Trend Gazer v5: プロフェッショナル・マルチタイムフレームICT分析システム
## 📊 概要
**Trend Gazer v5** は、複数の実証済み手法を統合した分析フレームワークを提供する、包括的な機関投資家グレードの取引システムです。このインジケーターは、**ICT（Inner Circle Trader）コンセプト**、**スマートマネー構造**、**オーダーブロック検知**、**フェアバリューギャップ**、および**出来高分析**を組み合わせて、機関投資家の足跡に裏打ちされた高確率の取引セットアップをトレーダーに提供します。
断片的なインジケーターは、トレーダーに複数のツールを切り替えることを強いますが、Trend Gazer v5は**包括的な市場ビュー**を単一のオーバーレイで提供し、分析麻痺を排除して自信ある意思決定を可能にします。
---
## 🎯 なぜこの組み合わせが必要なのか
### 単一コンセプトインジケーターの問題点
従来のインジケーターは3つの致命的な欠陥を抱えています：
1. **孤立したコンテキスト** - 価格、出来高、構造が個別に分析され、矛盾するシグナルを生成
2. **タイムフレームの盲目性** - 単一タイムフレーム分析は、複数のタイムフレームで発生する機関投資家の活動を見逃す
3. **遅れた確認** - あるインジケーターが別のインジケーターの確認を待つことで、エントリーを逃し、エグジットが遅れる
### 機関投資家の取引実態
プロのトレーダーや機関投資家は、**複数の次元を同時に**操作します：
- **構造的コンテキスト**: 市場サイクルのどこにいるのか？（CHoCH、SiMS、BoMS）
- **オーダーフロー**: 機関投資家の需要と供給が集中しているのはどこか？（オーダーブロック）
- **非効率性**: 埋めなければならない価格の不均衡はどこか？（フェアバリューギャップ）
- **モメンタムコンテキスト**: 出来高は拡大しているか縮小しているか？（VWC/TBOSI）
- **平均回帰ポイント**: 機関投資家がリバウンドを期待する場所はどこか？（NPR/BB、EMA）
**Trend Gazer v5はこれらの次元を統合**し、個別のインジケーターでは提供できない市場マイクロ構造の完全な全体像を作成します。
---
## 🔬 コア分析フレームワーク
### 1️⃣ ICT ドンチャン・スマートマネー構造
**目的**: 大きな動きに先行する機関投資家の市場構造シフトを識別する。
**コンポーネント**:
- **CHoCH (Change of Character / 性質の変化)** - トレンド疲弊を示す市場構造のブレイク
- `1.CHoCH`（強気） - 直近安値のブレイク、強気構造へのシフト
- `A.CHoCH`（弱気） - 直近高値のブレイク、弱気構造へのシフト
- **SiMS (Shift in Market Structure / 市場構造のシフト)** - 初期構造シフト（2回目の発生）
- **BoMS (Break of Market Structure / 市場構造のブレイク)** - 継続構造（3回目以降の発生）
**なぜ不可欠なのか**:
小売トレーダーは価格変化に反応します。機関投資家は構造を破ることで価格変化を**作り出します**。**ドンチャンチャネル**（高値/安値追跡の最も純粋な形式）を使用してこれらのシフトを検出することで、機関投資家のバイアスが変化する正確な瞬間を特定します。

---
### 2️⃣ マルチタイムフレーム・オーダーブロック検知
**目的**: 価格が反転する可能性が高い機関投資家の需給ゾーンをマッピングする。
**方法論**:
オーダーブロックは、強い動きの前の**最後の反対方向ローソク足**を表します。これらのゾーンは、機関投資家がポジションを蓄積（強気OB）または分配（弱気OB）した場所を示します。
**マルチタイムフレームカバレッジ**:
- **1分足**: デイトレーダー向けスキャルピングゾーン
- **3分足**: 短期スイングゾーン
- **15分足**: イントラデイ機関投資家ゾーン
- **60分足**: デイリースイングゾーン
- **現在のTF**: 任意のチャートタイムフレームへの動的適応
**主要機能**:
- **バウンス検知** - OBゾーンから価格がリバウンドする時を識別（シグナル7: 🎯 OBバウンス）
- **ブレーカー追跡** - OBが破られた時を監視し、強気OBを抵抗に、弱気OBをサポートに変換
- **ビジュアルレンダリング** - OBの強度を示す透明度付きの色分けされたボックス
- **OB方向フィルター** - 矛盾するシグナルをブロック（強気OBでSELLなし、弱気OBでBUYなし）
**なぜMTFオーダーブロックが重要か**:
60分足のオーダーブロックは、より大きなタイムフレームでの機関投資家のポジショニングを表します。3分足のエントリーシグナルと組み合わせることで、大口プレイヤーと**同じ方向**で取引することになります。
---
### 3️⃣ フェアバリューギャップ（FVG）検知
**目的**: 機関投資家が最終的に埋めなければならない価格の非効率性を識別する。
**FVGとは何か？**:
フェアバリューギャップは、価格があまりにも急速に動いて**不均衡**を残す時に発生します - 1本のローソク足の高値と2本後のローソク足の安値の間のギャップ（またはその逆）。機関投資家はこれらを修正されなければならない非効率的な価格設定と見なします。
**検知ロジック**:
```
強気FVG: high < low → ギャップアップ = 弱気の不均衡（下方フィル予想）
弱気FVG: low > high → ギャップダウン = 強気の不均衡（上方フィル予想）
```
**ビジュアルデザイン**:
- **強気FVG**: 緑のボックス（価格がバウンドすべきサポートゾーン）
- **弱気FVG**: 赤のボックス（価格が拒否されるべき抵抗ゾーン）
- **ミティゲーション追跡**: FVGは埋められると消え、完了を示す
- **出来高帰属**: 各FVGは関連する買い/売り出来高を追跡
**なぜFVGが重要か**:
機関投資家は**効率性**で動きます。ギャップは非効率性を表します。価格がギャップを埋めるために戻る時、それはランダムではありません - 機関投資家が**市場の非効率性を修正**しているのです。FVGフィルへの取引は卓越したリスク/リワードを提供します。
---
### 4️⃣ 出来高加重クラウド（VWC/TBOSI）
**目的**: 出来高加重プライスアクションを使用してモメンタムシフトとトレンド強度を検出する。
**メカニズム**:
VWCは移動平均に**ボラティリティ加重**を適用し、高ボラティリティトレンド中に拡大し、コンソリデーション中に縮小する動的クラウドを作成します。
**マルチタイムフレーム分析**:
- **1m、3m、5m**: マイクロスキャルピングモメンタム
- **15m**: イントラデイトレンド確認
- **60m、240m**: スイングトレードトレンド検証
**シグナル生成**:
- **VWCスイッチ（シグナル2）**: クラウドの色が反転した時（赤→緑または緑→赤）、モメンタム反転を示す
- **VWCステータステーブル**: 全タイムフレームのトレンド方向のリアルタイム表示
**なぜ出来高加重が重要か**:
従来の移動平均はすべてのバーを等しく扱います。VWCは**高出来高バーに重みを与え**、シグナルが低出来高のノイズではなく、実際の機関投資家の参加を反映することを保証します。
---
### 5️⃣ ノンリペイントSTDEV（NPR）＆ボリンジャーバンド
**目的**: リペイントなしで極端な平均回帰ポイントを識別する。
**従来のインジケーターの問題点**:
多くのインジケーターは**リペイント**します - 新しいデータが到着すると過去の値を変更し、バックテストを誤解させます。NPRは**先読みバイアス防止**を使用して、シグナルが固定されたままであることを保証します。
**設定**:
- **15分足NPR/BB**: イントラデイボラティリティバンド
- **60分足NPR/BB**: スイングトレード極値
- **複数のカーネルオプション**: 指数、単純、二重指数、三重指数 - 異なる平滑化プロファイル
**シグナルロジック（シグナル8）**:
- **BUY**: 価格が下部バンドの**内側**でクローズ（触れるだけではない）→ 極端な売られ過ぎで機関投資家の吸収が可能性高い
- **SELL**: 価格が上部バンドの**内側**でクローズ → 極端な買われ過ぎで機関投資家の分配が可能性高い
**なぜNPRが優れているか**:
リペイントインジケーターはトレーダーにバックテストで誤った自信を与えます。NPRは、履歴で見るすべてのシグナルが、トレーダーがリアルタイムで見たであろうもの**そのもの**であることを保証します。
---
### 6️⃣ 💎 STRONG CHoChパターン検知
**目的**: 短い時間枠内で複数のCHoCH確認が整列した時の最高確率セットアップを識別する。
**パターンロジック**:
**STRONG BUYパターン**:
```
1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH（20バー以内）
```
このシーケンスは以下を示します：
1. 初期強気構造シフト
2. 弱気リテスト（プルバック）
3. **更新された強気確認** - 機関投資家は弱い手を振り落とした後に再蓄積中
**STRONG SELLパターン**:
```
A.CHoCH → 1.CHoCH → A.CHoCH（20バー以内）
```
このシーケンスは以下を示します：
1. 初期弱気構造シフト
2. 強気リテスト（デッドキャットバウンス）
3. **更新された弱気確認** - 機関投資家はロングを罠にかけた後に再分配中
**ビジュアル表示**:
```
💎 BUY
```
- **0%透明度**（完全不透明） - 最大の視覚的優先度
- パターン完成時に**即座に**表示（追加シグナル不要）
- 市場構造フィルターから独立（パターン自体が確認）
**なぜSTRONGシグナルが異なるか**:
- **三重確認**: 3つの構造シフトが誤ったブレイクアウトを排除
- **短い時間枠**: 20バーウィンドウがランダムなノイズではなく、機関投資家の確信を保証
- **自動表示**: 価格アクションを待たない - パターン自体がアラートをトリガー
- **歴史的検証**: この特定のシーケンスは主要な機関投資家の動きに先行することが証明されている
**リスク管理**:
STRONGシグナルは最高のリスク/リワードを提供します：
1. ストップロスは中央のCHoCHの外に配置可能（タイトなリスク）
2. ターゲットは次の主要構造レベルに設定可能（大きなリワード）
3. パターン失敗は即座に明らか（間違っていればクイックエグジット）
---
### 7️⃣ マルチEMAフレームワーク
**目的**: ダイナミックなサポート/レジスタンスとトレンドコンテキストを提供する。
**EMA設定**:
- **EMA 7**: マイクロトレンド（スキャルピング）
- **EMA 20**: 短期トレンド
- **EMA 50**: 機関投資家のピボット（シグナル6: EMA50バウンス）
- **EMA 100**: 中期トレンドフィルター
- **EMA 200**: 主要な機関投資家のサポート/レジスタンス
- **EMA 400、800**: マクロトレンドコンテキスト
**ビジュアルフィル**:
- EMA間の色分けされたフィルが**ビジュアルトレンド強度ゾーン**を作成
- 収束 = コンソリデーション
- 発散 = トレンド市場
**なぜ7つのEMAか？**:
各EMAは異なる**参加者タイムフレーム**を表します：
- EMA 7/20: デイトレーダーとスキャルパー
- EMA 50/100: スイングトレーダー
- EMA 200/400/800: ポジショントレーダーと機関投資家
すべてのEMAが整列した時、**すべての参加者タイプが方向に同意**している - 最高確率のトレンド取引です。
---
## 🚀 8シグナル取引システム
Trend Gazer v5は**8つの異なるシグナル条件**（すべてデフォルトで有効）を採用しており、それぞれが異なる市場レジームを捕捉するように設計されています：
### ⭐ シグナル階層＆取引哲学
**重要**: すべてのシグナルが同じではありません。インジケーターはシグナル品質の階層を表示します：
**プライマリーシグナル（これを取引する）**:
- 💎 **STRONG BUY/SELL** - 三重CHoChパターン（最優先）
- 🌟 **スターシグナル（S7、S8）** - 高確率の機関投資家ゾーン反応
- シグナル7: オーダーブロックバウンス
- シグナル8: 60m NPR/BBバウンス
**補助シグナル（確認とコンテキスト）**:
- **シグナル1-6** - これらを以下として使用：
- スターシグナルの**確認**（複数のシグナルが整列した時）
- 市場状況を理解するための**コンテキスト**
- 潜在的な動きの**早期警告**（取引前に検証）
- **追加フィルター**（例：「シグナル1も出ているスターシグナルのみ取引」）
**取引推奨**:
- **保守的トレーダー**: 💎 STRONGと🌟スターシグナル**のみ**取引
- **中程度トレーダー**: スターシグナル + 検証された補助シグナル（2+シグナル確認）
- **アクティブトレーダー**: 適切なリスク管理ですべてのシグナルを使用
視覚的透明度システムはこの階層を強化します：

この視覚的階層により、トレーダーは分析麻痺なしに高優先度セットアップを**即座に認識**できます。
### カラースキーム: 日本式ローソク足慣例
**強気 = 赤 | 弱気 = 青/緑**
これは伝統的な日本式ローソク足方法論に従います：
- **赤（陽）**: ポジティブエネルギー、上昇価格、強気
- **青/緑（陰）**: ネガティブエネルギー、下降価格、弱気
西洋の慣例はしばしばこれを逆にしますが、プロの取引ルームとの一貫性のために**ICTと機関投資家の慣例**を維持します。

FVG Volume Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
FVG Volume Profile is a smart volume analysis tool that identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and overlays a volume profile inside each gap using data from lower timeframes. The indicator automatically selects the best time resolution or allows for manual control, giving traders deeper insight into the volume structure within each imbalance. POC levels and total volumes gives a full microstructure view inside every FVG.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Fair Value Gap Detection (Bullish & Bearish)
Detects price gaps where inefficiency exists using a 3-bar structure.
-Bullish Gaps: Low > High with confirming middle bar.
-Bearish Gaps: High < Low with confirming middle bar.
Only significant gaps (filtered by standard deviation) are plotted to avoid noise.
Multi-Timeframe Volume Profiling
Pulls granular candle and volume data from a lower timeframe —
In Auto Mode, uses a resolution ~10x lower than the current chart.
In Manual Mode, lets the user select a custom timeframe.
This ensures accurate intra-gap volume distribution.
Dynamic Volume Binning
Each FVG is divided into vertical volume bins based on the Resolution input.
Each bin displays relative volume intensity as a horizontal box, scaled by percentage of the max bin volume.
Point of Control (PoC) Line & Label
The bin with the maximum volume inside each FVG is marked with:
A horizontal line (PoC) extending from the left to right side.
A label showing the absolute volume of that bin.
Color-coded to match bullish or bearish FVGs.
Total Volume Label Inside FVG
Each FVG displays the total volume sum from its profile:
For bullish FVGs , shown in the bottom-right corner.
For bearish FVGs , shown in the top-right corner.
Auto-Removal of Invalid Gaps
If price fully closes the gap (crosses its bounds), the FVG, profile, and PoC are deleted automatically.
This keeps the chart clean and focused only on active zones.
Toggleable Volume Profile Display
User can show or hide the volume profiles within FVGs using the "Display" toggle under the "FVG Volume Profile" group.
Only the PoC and FVG boxes remain visible if toggled off.
Volume Resolution Customization
Control the number of bins used for each FVG profile.
Higher resolution = more bins and finer volume analysis. (default 15)
Auto Timeframe Validation Warning
If the selected lower timeframe isn’t actually lower than the chart's, the script shows a visible warning label prompting adjustment.
Helps prevent calculation errors.
⯁ USAGE
Use this tool to identify active imbalance zones (FVGs) with embedded volume context.
Look for PoC positioning inside gaps — near top may indicate absorption or reversal zones.
Combine with price action at the PoC level for precision entries.
Hide volume profile for a cleaner view while retaining key POC and FVG boxes.
Use resolution controls to zoom into fine-grained profiles inside large gaps.
Consider Auto mode for seamless multi-timeframe analysis, or switch to Manual for full control.
⯁ CONCLUSION
FVG Volume Profile transforms raw imbalance detection into actionable insight by embedding lower-timeframe volume structure inside each Fair Value Gap. With PoC highlights, total volume labels, and customizable bin resolution, this indicator is essential for traders who want to understand not just where the gap is — but what volume did inside it .
Delta Magnet Zone LiteDelta Magnet Zone Lite is exactly what it sounds like. It is areas where price cold potentially act as a magnet zone for price. Delta Magnet Zone Lite is a lightweight yet powerful visual tool that highlights potential liquidity traps and high-probability reversal zones based on volume spikes and wick imbalances. Designed for precision traders, this indicator visually marks key “magnet” zones where price may react, reverse, or consolidate due to prior aggressive buying or selling activity.
🔹 Core Logic:
Volume Spike Detection
Identifies candles with significantly higher volume than the moving average (customizable). These are likely areas of institutional interest or stop-hunt events.
Wick Ratio Analysis
Measures the size of the upper or lower wick relative to the total candle range. When combined with volume spikes, this helps detect:
Bullish Traps: Large lower wicks with strong buying volume
Bearish Traps: Large upper wicks with strong selling volume
Smart Zone Marking
When trap conditions are met, the script draws a semi-transparent colored box (green for bullish, red for bearish) that extends forward in time, highlighting a magnet zone—a price area likely to be retested or respected by future price action.
🛠 Customization Options:
Volume Spike Threshold
Adjust the multiplier for defining what qualifies as "high volume" relative to the average.
Wick Ratio Sensitivity
Fine-tune how extreme the wick size must be to qualify as a trap.
Zone Lifetime (Lookback)
Control how many bars each zone remains active on the chart.
Toggle Visibility
Turn bullish or bearish zones on/off independently for clean charting.
Ideal Use Cases:
Spotting hidden liquidity zones
Identifying exhaustion points in fast markets
Tracking institutional order imbalances
Enhancing confirmation for entry/exit signals
Whether you're trading intraday breakouts or swing-level reversals, Delta Magnet Zone Lite brings clarity to key reaction levels derived from raw price and volume behavior.
ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2📜 ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2 — Advanced Liquidity Reversal System
Overview:
The ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2 is a next-generation liquidity reversal indicator built on the principles of smart money concepts (SMC) and the classic ICT Turtle Soup setup. It is designed to detect false breakouts (liquidity grabs) at key swing points, enhanced by proprietary logic that filters out low-quality signals using a combination of trend context, kill zone timing, candle wick behavior, and multi-timeframe imbalance zones.
This tool is ideal for intraday traders seeking high-probability entry signals near liquidity pools and imbalance zones — where smart money makes its move.
🔍 What This Script Does
🧠 Liquidity Grab Detection (Turtle Soup Core Logic)
The script scans for recent swing highs/lows using a user-defined lookback.
A signal is generated when price breaks above/below a previous swing level but closes back inside — indicating a liquidity run and likely reversal.
A special Wick Trap Mode enhances this logic by detecting long-wick fakeouts — where the wick grabs stops but the candle body closes opposite the breakout direction.
📉 Trend Filter with ATR Buffer
Optional trend filter uses a simple moving average (SMA) to gauge market direction.
Instead of hard filtering, it applies an ATR-based buffer to allow for entries near the trend line, reducing signal suppression from micro-fluctuations.
🕰️ Kill Zone Session Filtering
Only show signals during institutional trading hours:
London Session
New York AM
Or any custom user-defined session
Helps traders avoid low-volume hours and focus on where stop hunts and price expansions typically occur.
🧱 Multi-Timeframe FVG Confluence (Optional)
Signal validation is strengthened by checking if price is within a higher timeframe Fair Value Gap — commonly used to identify imbalances or inefficiencies.
Filters out setups that lack underlying displacement or order flow justification.
🎨 Visual Feedback
Plots 🔺 bullish and 🔻 bearish markers at signal candles.
Optionally displays:
Swing High/Low Labels (SH / SL)
Reversal distance labels
Background color shading on valid signals
Includes built-in alerts for automated trade notification.
🔑 Unique Benefits
Wick Trap Detection: A proprietary approach to detecting stop hunts via wick behavior, not just candle closes.
ATR-based trend filtering: Avoids unnecessary filtering while still maintaining directional bias.
All-in-one system: No need to stack multiple indicators — swing detection, reversal logic, session filtering, and imbalance confirmation are all integrated.
💡 How to Use
Enable Wick Trap Mode to detect stealthy liquidity grabs with strong wicks.
Use Kill Zone filters to trade only when institutions are active.
Optionally enable FVG confluence to improve confidence in reversal zones.
Watch for Bullish signals near SL levels and Bearish signals near SH levels.
Combine with your own execution strategy or other SMC tools for optimal results.

✅ Liquidity Levels — Smart Swing Highs and Lows with horizontal line projections
First FVG Custom Time RangeFirst FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector
Smart Money Opening Imbalance Strategy Tool
This script automatically detects and highlights the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms between 9:30 and 10:00 AM Eastern Time (New York session open) — a critical period often referred to as the Opening Range. It’s designed for Smart Money traders looking to isolate early-morning inefficiencies that may influence market behavior throughout the trading day.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Automatically Detects the First FVG in the Opening Range
Scans price action between 9:30 and 10:00 AM ET and identifies the first valid bullish or bearish FVG that forms.
Only one FVG is shown per day — ensuring a clean, focused view.
Draws a Visual Zone
Once detected, the FVG zone is extended forward on the chart (customizable duration).
A labeled zone helps users track how price reacts to it throughout the session.
Optional Retest Alerts
Alerts you when price re-enters the zone — a potential reaction point used by SMC traders.
Customization Options
Set your preferred session time window
Adjust zone duration (in bars)
Customize label font size, colors, and visibility
Enable/disable alert on retest
📈 Why the First FVG Matters:
Time-Sensitive Setup: The first FVG typically forms no earlier than 9:31 AM ET and represents a potential “time distortion” or imbalance zone created by aggressive market participants during the open.
Behavioral Study: Many traders journal how price behaves around this zone each day — whether it acts as support, resistance, or gets traded through later in the session.
Predictive Value: Observing how this zone is respected or broken can provide anticipatory insight into intraday price action, rather than reactive analysis.
Great for New Traders: This opening FVG is often recommended as a starting reference point for building trade models and understanding how institutional imbalances unfold.
🚀 What Makes It Unique:
This tool doesn’t spam your chart with every FVG. It laser-focuses on a single, time-bound zone backed by institutional logic — the first presented imbalance of the day during the opening range.
Use it to:
Monitor price behavior around early inefficiencies
Plan journal entries and pattern recognition
Align intraday setups with a high-probability SMC model
Whether you’re scalping, journaling market structure, or refining entries based on liquidity behavior — this script helps you make the first 30 minutes count.
PVSRA v5Overview of the PVSRA Strategy
This strategy is designed to detect and capitalize on volume-driven threshold breaches in price candles. It operates on the premise that when a high-volume candle breaks a critical price threshold, not all orders are filled within that candle’s range. This creates an imbalance—similar to a physical system being perturbed—causing the price to revert toward the level where the breach occurred to “absorb” the residual orders.
Key Features and Their Theoretical Underpinnings
Dynamic Volume Analysis and Threshold Detection
Volume Surges as Market Perturbations:
The script computes a moving average of volume over a short window and flags moments when the current volume significantly exceeds this average. These surges act as a perturbation—injecting “energy” into the market.
Adaptive Abnormal Volume Threshold:
By calculating a dynamic abnormal threshold using a daily volume average (via an 89-period VWMA) and standard deviation, the strategy identifies when the current volume is abnormally high. This mechanism mirrors the idea that when a system is disturbed (here, by a volume surge), it naturally seeks to return to equilibrium.
Candle Coloring and Visual Signal Identification
Differentiation of Candle Types:
The script distinguishes between bullish (green) and bearish (red) candles. It applies different colors based on the strength of the volume signal, providing a clear, visual representation of whether a candle is likely to trigger a price reversion.
Implication of Unfilled Orders:
A red (bearish) candle with high volume implies that sell pressure has pushed the price past a critical threshold—yet not all buy orders have been fulfilled. Conversely, a green (bullish) candle indicates that aggressive buying has left pending sell orders. In both cases, the market is expected to reverse toward the breach point to restore balance.
Trade Execution Logic: Normal and Reversal Trades
Normal Trades:
When a high-volume candle breaches a threshold and meets the directional conditions (e.g., a red candle paired with price above a daily upper band), the strategy enters a trade anticipating a reversion. The underlying idea is that the market will move back to the level where the threshold was crossed—clearing the residual orders in a manner analogous to a system following the path of least resistance.
Reversal Trades:
The strategy also monitors for clusters of consecutive signals within a short lookback period. When multiple signals accumulate, it interprets this as the market having overextended and, in a corrective move, reverses the typical trade direction. This inversion captures the market’s natural tendency to “correct” itself by moving in discrete, quantized steps—each step representing the absorption of a minimum quantum of order imbalance.
Risk and Trade Management
Stop Loss and Take Profit Buffers:
Both normal and reversal trades include predetermined buffers for stop loss and take profit levels. This systematic risk management approach is designed to capture the anticipated reversion while minimizing potential losses, aligning with the idea that market corrections follow the most energy-efficient path back to equilibrium.
Symbol Flexibility:
An option to override the chart’s symbol allows the strategy to be applied consistently across different markets, ensuring that the volume and price dynamics are analyzed uniformly.
Conceptual Bridge: From Market Dynamics to Trade Execution
At its core, the strategy treats market price movements much like a physical system that seeks to minimize “transactional energy” or inefficiency. When a price candle breaches a key threshold on high volume, it mimics an injection of energy into the system. The subsequent price reversion is the market’s natural response—moving in the most efficient path back to balance. This perspective is akin to the principle of least action, where the system evolves along the trajectory that minimizes cumulative imbalance, and it acknowledges that these corrections occur in discrete steps reflective of quantized order execution.
This unified framework allows the PVSRA strategy to not only identify when significant volume-based threshold breaches occur but also to systematically execute trades that benefit from the expected corrective moves.
Turtle Soup ICT Strategy [TradingFinder] FVG + CHoCH/CSD🔵 Introduction
The ICT Turtle Soup trading setup, designed in the ICT style, operates by hunting or sweeping liquidity zones to exploit false breakouts and failed breakouts in key liquidity Zones, such as recent highs, lows, or major support and resistance levels.
This setup identifies moments when the price breaches these liquidity zones, triggering stop orders placed (Stop Hunt) by other traders, and then quickly reverses direction. These movements are often associated with liquidity sweeps that create temporary market imbalances.
The reversal is typically confirmed by one of three structural shifts : a Market Structure Shift (MSS), a Change of Character (CHoCH), or a break of the Change in State of Delivery (CISD). Each of these structural shifts provides a reliable signal to interpret market intent and align trading decisions with the expected price movement. After the structural shift, the price frequently pullback to a Fair Value Gap (FVG), offering a precise entry point for trades.
By integrating key concepts such as liquidity, liquidity sweeps, stop order activation, structural shifts (MSS, CHoCH, CISD), and price imbalances, the ICT Turtle Soup setup enables traders to identify reversal points and key entry zones with high accuracy.
This strategy is highly versatile, making it applicable across markets such as forex, stocks, cryptocurrencies, and futures. It offers traders a robust and systematic approach to understanding price movements and optimizing their trading strategies
🟣 Bullish and Bearish Setups
Bullish Setup : The price first sweeps below a Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) zone, then reverses upward after forming an MSS or CHoCH, and finally pulls back to an FVG, creating a buying opportunity.
Bearish Setup : The price first sweeps above a Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) zone, then reverses downward after forming an MSS or CHoCH, and finally pulls back to an FVG, creating a selling opportunity.
🔵 How to Use
To effectively utilize the ICT Turtle Soup trading setup, begin by identifying key liquidity zones, such as recent highs, lows, or support and resistance levels, in higher timeframes.
Then, monitor lower timeframes for a Liquidity Sweep and confirmation of a Market Structure Shift (MSS) or Change of Character (CHoCH).
After the structural shift, the price typically pulls back to an FVG, offering an optimal trade entry point. Below, the bullish and bearish setups are explained in detail.
🟣 Bullish Turtle Soup Setup
Identify Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) : In a higher timeframe (e.g., 1-hour or 4-hour), identify recent price lows or support levels that serve as SSL zones, typically the location of stop-loss orders for traders.
Observe a Liquidity Sweep : On a lower timeframe (e.g., 15-minute or 30-minute), the price must move below one of these liquidity zones and then reverse. This movement indicates a liquidity sweep.
Confirm Market Structure Shift : After the price reversal, look for a structural shift (MSS or CHoCH) indicated by the formation of a Higher Low (HL) and Higher High (HH).
Enter the Trade : Once the structural shift is confirmed, the price typically pulls back to an FVG. Enter a buy trade in this zone, set a stop-loss slightly below the recent low, and target Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) in the higher timeframe for profit.
🟣 Bearish Turtle Soup Setup
Identify Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) : In a higher timeframe, identify recent price highs or resistance levels that serve as BSL zones, typically the location of stop-loss orders for traders.
Observe a Liquidity Sweep : On a lower timeframe, the price must move above one of these liquidity zones and then reverse. This movement indicates a liquidity sweep.
Confirm Market Structure Shift : After the price reversal, look for a structural shift (MSS or CHoCH) indicated by the formation of a Lower High (LH) and Lower Low (LL).
Enter the Trade : Once the structural shift is confirmed, the price typically pulls back to an FVG. Enter a sell trade in this zone, set a stop-loss slightly above the recent high, and target Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) in the higher timeframe for profit.

Higher TimeFrame Levels : This setting allows you to specify the higher timeframe (e.g., 1-hour, 4-hour, or daily) for identifying key liquidity zones.
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar.
MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar.
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filter s:
Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
In the indicator settings, you can customize the visibility of various elements, including MSS, FVG, and HTF Levels. Additionally, the color of each element can be adjusted to match your preferences. This feature allows traders to tailor the chart display to their specific needs, enhancing focus on the key data relevant to their strategy.

Price Action Analyst [OmegaTools]Price Action Analyst (PAA) is an advanced trading tool designed to assist traders in identifying key price action structures such as order blocks, market structure shifts, liquidity grabs, and imbalances. With its fully customizable settings, the script offers both novice and experienced traders insights into potential market movements by visually highlighting premium/discount zones, breakout signals, and significant price levels.
This script utilizes complex logic to determine significant price action patterns and provides dynamic tools to spot strong market trends, liquidity pools, and imbalances across different timeframes. It also integrates an internal backtesting function to evaluate win rates based on price interactions with supply and demand zones.
The script combines multiple analysis techniques, including market structure shifts, order block detection, fair value gaps (FVG), and ICT bias detection, to provide a comprehensive and holistic market view.
Key Features:
Order Block Detection: Automatically detects order blocks based on price action and strength analysis, highlighting potential support/resistance zones.
Market Structure Analysis: Tracks internal and external market structure changes with gradient color-coded visuals.
Liquidity Grabs & Breakouts: Detects potential liquidity grab and breakout areas with volume confirmation.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs based on historical price action and threshold calculations.
ICT Bias: Integrates ICT bias analysis, dynamically adjusting based on higher-timeframe analysis.
Supply and Demand Zones: Highlights supply and demand zones using customizable colors and thresholds, adjusting dynamically based on market conditions.
Trend Lines: Automatically draws trend lines based on significant price pivots, extending them dynamically over time.
Backtesting: Internal backtesting engine to calculate the win rate of signals generated within supply and demand zones.
Percentile-Based Pricing: Plots key percentile price levels to visualize premium, fair, and discount pricing zones.
High Customizability: Offers extensive user input options for adjusting zone detection, color schemes, and structure analysis.
User Guide:
Order Blocks: Order blocks are significant support or resistance zones where strong buyers or sellers previously entered the market. These zones are detected based on pivot points and engulfing price action. The strength of each block is determined by momentum, volume, and liquidity confirmations.
Demand Zones: Displayed in shades of blue based on their strength. The darker the color, the stronger the zone.
Supply Zones: Displayed in shades of red based on their strength. These zones highlight potential resistance areas.
The zones will dynamically extend as long as they remain valid. Users can set a maximum number of order blocks to be displayed.
Market Structure: Market structure is classified into internal and external shifts. A bullish or bearish market structure break (MSB) occurs when the price moves past a previous high or low. This script tracks these breaks and plots them using a gradient color scheme:
Internal Structure: Short-term market structure, highlighting smaller movements.
External Structure: Long-term market shifts, typically more significant.
Users can choose how they want the structure to be visualized through the "Market Structure" setting, choosing from different visual methods.
Liquidity Grabs: The script identifies liquidity grabs (false breakouts designed to trap traders) by monitoring price action around highs and lows of previous bars. These are represented by diamond shapes:
Liquidity Buy: Displayed below bars when a liquidity grab occurs near a low.
Liquidity Sell: Displayed above bars when a liquidity grab occurs near a high.
Breakouts: Breakouts are detected based on strong price momentum beyond key levels:
Breakout Buy: Triggered when the price closes above the highest point of the past 20 bars with confirmation from volume and range expansion.
Breakout Sell: Triggered when the price closes below the lowest point of the past 20 bars, again with volume and range confirmation.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Fair value gaps (FVGs) are periods where the price moves too quickly, leaving an unbalanced market condition. The script identifies these gaps:
Bullish FVG: When there is a gap between the low of two previous bars and the high of a recent bar.
Bearish FVG: When a gap occurs between the high of two previous bars and the low of the recent bar.
FVGs are color-coded and can be filtered by their size to focus on more significant gaps.
ICT Bias: The script integrates the ICT methodology by offering an auto-calculated higher-timeframe bias:
Long Bias: Suggests the market is in an uptrend based on higher timeframe analysis.
Short Bias: Indicates a downtrend.
Neutral Bias: Suggests no clear directional bias.
Trend Lines: Automatic trend lines are drawn based on significant pivot highs and lows. These lines will dynamically adjust based on price movement. Users can control the number of trend lines displayed and extend them over time to track developing trends.
Percentile Pricing: The script also plots the 25th percentile (discount zone), 75th percentile (premium zone), and a fair value price. This helps identify whether the current price is overbought (premium) or oversold (discount).
Customization:
Zone Strength Filter: Users can set a minimum strength threshold for order blocks to be displayed.
Color Customization: Users can choose colors for demand and supply zones, market structure, breakouts, and FVGs.
Dynamic Zone Management: The script allows zones to be deleted after a certain number of bars or dynamically adjusts zones based on recent price action.
Max Zone Count: Limits the number of supply and demand zones shown on the chart to maintain clarity.
Backtesting & Win Rate: The script includes a backtesting engine to calculate the percentage of respect on the interaction between price and demand/supply zones. Results are displayed in a table at the bottom of the chart, showing the percentage rating for both long and short zones. Please note that this is not a win rate of a simulated strategy, it simply is a measure to understand if the current assets tends to respect more supply or demand zones.
How to Use:
Load the script onto your chart. The default settings are optimized for identifying key price action zones and structure on intraday charts of liquid assets.
Customize the settings according to your strategy. For example, adjust the "Max Orderblocks" and "Strength Filter" to focus on more significant price action areas.
Monitor the liquidity grabs, breakouts, and FVGs for potential trade opportunities.
Use the bias and market structure analysis to align your trades with the prevailing market trend.
Refer to the backtesting win rates to evaluate the effectiveness of the zones in your trading.

Swing Volume Profiles [LuxAlgo]The Swing Volume Profiles indicator aims to calculate and highlight trading activity at specific price levels between two swing points; allowing traders to reveal dominant and/or significant price levels based on volume.
By measuring traded volume at all price levels in the market over a specified time period, the script can also be used to detect some key analysis generally such as supply & demand, buy-side & sell-side liquidity levels, unfilled liquidity voids, and imbalances that can highlight on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
A volume profile is an advanced charting tool that displays the traded volume at different price levels over a specific period. It helps you visualize where the majority of trading activity has occurred.
Key Levels are the areas where the volume is concentrated or where there are significant volume spikes. These levels are known as key support and resistance levels. High-volume nodes indicate areas of high activity and are likely to act as support or resistance in the future.
Volume profile also helps identify value areas, which represent the price levels where the most trading activity has taken place. These levels can act as areas of support or resistance as traders perceive them as fair value.
The Point of Control describes the price level where the most volume was traded. A Naked Point of Control (also called a Virgin Point of Control) is a previous POC that has not been traded. Extending PoC options 'Until Bar Cross' or 'Until Bar Touch' helps in identifying Naked Point of Control Lines.
Previous PoC levels can serve as support and resistance for future price movements. Extending PoC Level 'Until Last Bar' option will help to identify such levels.
🔶 DETAILS
One of the unique features of the script is its ability to detect some other key levels such as levels of acceptance and rejection.
Levels of rejection we may summarize as supply and demand levels, these are also referred to as buy-side and sell-side liquidity levels. They usually occur at extreme highs or lows, where prices may be too high for buyers (high supply, low demand) or too low for sellers (low supply, high demand)
Levels of acceptance are the levels where Liquidity Voids occur, these are also referred to imbalances. Liquidity voids are sudden changes in price when the price jumps from one level to another. The peculiar thing about liquidity voids is that they almost always fill up, so we call them levels of acceptance.
🔶 ALERTS
When an alert is configured, the user will have the ability to be notified in case:
Point Of Control Line is touched/crossed
Value Area High Line is touched/crossed
Value Area Low Line is touched/crossed

Bid/Ask Volume Tension with Rolling Avg📊 Bid/Ask Volume Tension with Rolling Average
This indicator is designed to help traders identify pivotal moments of buildup, exhaustion, or imbalance in the market by calculating the tension between buy and sell volume.
🔍 How It Works:
Buy volume is approximated when the candle closes higher than or equal to its open.
Sell volume is approximated when the candle closes below its open.
Both are smoothed using an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) for noise reduction.
Tension is calculated as the absolute difference between smoothed buy and sell volume.
A rolling average of tension shows the baseline for normal behavior.
When instant tension rises significantly above the rolling average, it often signals:
A build-up before a large move
Aggressive order flow imbalances
Potential reversals or breakouts
🧠 How to Use:
Watch the orange line (instant tension) for spikes above the aqua line (rolling average).
Purple background highlights show when tension exceeds a customizable multiple of the average — a potential setup zone.
Use this indicator alongside:
Price action (candlestick structure)
Support/resistance
Liquidity zones or order blocks
⚙️ Settings:
Smoothing Length: Controls the responsiveness of buy/sell volume smoothing.
Rolling Avg Window: Defines the lookback period for the baseline tension.
Buildup Threshold: Triggers highlight zones when tension exceeds this multiple of the average.
🧪 Best For:
Spotting pre-breakout tension
Detecting volume-based divergences
Confirming order flow imbalances

ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit is a comprehensive suite of tools crafted to aid traders in pinpointing crucial trading zones and patterns within the market.
The ICT Immediate Rebalance, although frequently overlooked, emerges as one of ICT's most influential concepts, particularly when considered within a specific context. The toolkit integrates commonly used price action tools to be utilized in conjunction with the Immediate Rebalance patterns, enriching the capacity to discern context for improved trading decisions.
The ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit encompasses the following Price Action components:
ICT Immediate Rebalance
Buyside/Sellside Liquidity
Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks
Liquidity Voids
ICT Macros
🔶 USAGE
🔹 ICT Immediate Rebalance
What is an Immediate Rebalance?
Immediate rebalances, a concept taught by ICT, hold significant importance in decision-making. To comprehend the concept of immediate rebalance, it's essential to grasp the notion of the fair value gap. A fair value gap arises from market inefficiencies or imbalances, whereas an immediate rebalance leaves no gap, no inefficiencies, or no imbalances that the price would need to return to.
Rule of Thumb
After an immediate rebalance, the expectation is for two extension candles to follow; otherwise, the immediate rebalance is considered failed. It's important to highlight that both failed and successful immediate rebalances, when considered within a context, are significant signatures in trading.
Immediate rebalances can occur anywhere and in any timeframe.
🔹 Buyside/Sellside Liquidity
In the context of Inner Circle Trader's teachings, liquidity primarily refers to the presence of stop losses or pending orders, that indicate concentrations of buy or sell orders at specific price levels. Institutional traders, like banks and large financial entities, frequently aim for these liquidity levels or pools to accumulate or distribute their positions.
Buyside liquidity denotes a chart level where short sellers typically position their stops, while Sellside liquidity indicates a level where long-biased traders usually place their stops. These zones often serve as support or resistance levels, presenting potential trading opportunities.
The presentation applied here is the multi-timeframe version of our previously published Buyside-Sellside-Liquidity script.
🔹 Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks
Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks hold significant importance in technical analysis and play a crucial role in shaping market behavior.
Order blocks are fundamental elements of price action analysis used by traders to identify key levels in the market where significant buying or selling activity has occurred. These blocks represent areas on a price chart where institutional traders, banks, or large market participants have placed substantial buy or sell orders, leading to a temporary imbalance in supply and demand.
Breaker blocks, also known as liquidity clusters or pools, complement order blocks by identifying zones where liquidity is concentrated on the price chart. These areas, formed from mitigated order blocks, often act as significant barriers to price movement, potentially leading to price stalls or reversals in the future.
🔹 Liquidity Voids
Liquidity voids are sudden price changes when the price jumps from one level to another. Liquidity voids will appear as a single or a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction. These candles typically have large real bodies and very short wicks, suggesting very little disagreement between buyers and sellers.
Here is our previously released Liquidity-Voids script.
🔹 ICT Macros
In the context of ICT's teachings, a macro is a small program or set of instructions that unfolds within an algorithm, which influences price movements in the market. These macros operate at specific times and can be related to price runs from one level to another or certain market behaviors during specific time intervals. They help traders anticipate market movements and potential setups during specific time intervals.
Here is our previously released ICT-Macros script.

Consolidation Tracker🧭 Consolidation Tracker — Visualize Market Reversals in Real Time
The Consolidation Tracker is a minimalist yet powerful tool designed to map the anatomy of market reversals and trend transitions. It highlights the structural evolution of price through four key phases, helping traders anticipate shifts with clarity and confidence.
🔄 The Four Stages of a Market Reversal:
Failure to Displace — Price fails to break beyond recent highs or lows, signaling potential exhaustion of the current trend.
Consolidation (CAMP) — A range-bound phase where price compresses between a dynamic high and low. These zones are shaded gray, representing indecision and balance.
Engulfing (ENGULF) — A decisive candle closes beyond the CAMP high or low, suggesting a directional shift. These are highlighted in orange.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) — A three-candle pattern forms a price imbalance. If this FVG also engulfs the CAMP range, it confirms the reversal and resets the CAMP. Bullish FVGs are shaded green, bearish FVGs in red.
🔁 From Reversal to Trend:
Once a reversal is confirmed via an FVG, the market often transitions into a trend cycle characterized by:
Displacement — Strong directional movement away from the prior range.
Fair Value Gaps — Continuation imbalances that offer high-probability entries on retracements.
🧠 How It Works:
The indicator dynamically tracks CAMP highs and lows, updating only when a candle engulfs the range or a valid FVG forms.
FVGs are detected when a three-candle sequence creates a gap between candle 2 and 0, and the middle candle (candle 1) breaks the CAMP boundary.
CAMP levels are plotted as horizontal lines, while background colors narrate the evolving structure in real time.
This tool is ideal for traders who value market structure, price efficiency, and narrative clarity. Whether you're anticipating reversals or riding trends, the Consolidation Tracker offers a clean, actionable lens into price behavior.

- Identifies trend continuation patterns
- Marks when price breaks above previous highs (bullish) or below previous lows (bearish)
- Confirms trend strength and momentum
🔹 CHoCH (Change of Character)
- Detects potential trend reversals
- Alerts when market structure shifts from bullish to bearish or vice versa
- Helps identify early reversal opportunities
🔹 Order Blocks
- Highlights institutional entry zones
- Identifies the last opposite candle before a structure break
- Shows areas where smart money likely entered positions
🔹 Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
- Detects price imbalances and inefficiencies
- Shows areas where price moved rapidly leaving gaps
- Often act as support/resistance when retested
🔹 Liquidity Zones
- Marks swing high and low levels
- Identifies areas where stop losses likely cluster
- Shows potential stop hunt and liquidity grab zones
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎯 HOW TO USE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
BULLISH SETUP:
1. Wait for Bullish CHoCH (trend reversal signal) or BOS ↑ (continuation)
2. Look for price to pull back into an Order Block or Fair Value Gap
3. Enter long when price bounces from these zones
4. Place stop loss below the Order Block
5. Target the next liquidity zone or resistance level
BEARISH SETUP:
1. Wait for Bearish CHoCH (trend reversal signal) or BOS ↓ (continuation)
2. Look for price to retrace into an Order Block or Fair Value Gap
3. Enter short when price rejects from these zones
4. Place stop loss above the Order Block
5. Target the next liquidity zone or support level
DASHBOARD INTERPRETATION:
• Trend: Current market direction (Bullish/Bearish)
• Volume: Confirmation strength (High volume = stronger signals)
• Signal: Latest structure break detected
• Key High/Low: Critical levels for the current trend
• Position: Price location (Premium = expensive, Discount = cheap)
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚙️ SETTINGS GUIDE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
STRUCTURE DETECTION:
• Pivot Length (Default: 10)
- Lower values = More signals but potentially weaker
- Higher values = Fewer signals but stronger/more reliable
- Recommended: 8-12 for intraday, 10-15 for higher timeframes
• Structure Line Extension
- Visual preference for how far lines extend
- Does not affect signal detection
SMART MONEY CONCEPTS:
• Order Block Extension: How long OB boxes remain visible
• FVG Extension: How long gap boxes remain visible
• Min FVG Size: Filter out small gaps (0 = show all)
- Set to 10-20% to reduce noise
- Set to 0 to see all gaps
VOLUME FILTER:
• Volume Confirmation (Recommended: ON)
- Filters weak signals without volume support
- Reduces false breakouts
• Volume Multiplier (Default: 1.5)
- Higher = Stricter filtering (fewer but stronger signals)
- Lower = More signals (but may include weak ones)

MARKET STRUCTURE:
Market structure refers to the pattern of price movements creating swing highs
and lows. Understanding structure helps identify trend direction and potential
reversal points.
SMART MONEY CONCEPTS:
These are trading techniques based on tracking institutional order flow and
understanding where large players (banks, funds, institutions) enter and exit
positions.
ORDER BLOCKS:
The last opposing candle before a strong directional move. Institutions often
leave unfilled orders in these zones, which can act as support/resistance when
price returns.
FAIR VALUE GAPS:
Areas where price moved so quickly that it left an imbalance. These gaps often
get "filled" as price returns to find equilibrium, creating trading opportunities.
