LRLR [TakingProphets]LRLR (Low Resistance Liquidity Run) Indicator
This indicator identifies potential liquidity runs in areas of low resistance, based on ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts. It specifically looks for a series of unmitigated swing highs in a downtrend that form without any bearish fair value gaps (FVGs) between them.
What is an LRLR?
- A Low Resistance Liquidity Run occurs when price creates a series of lower highs without any bearish fair value gaps in between
- The absence of bearish FVGs indicates there is no significant resistance in the area
- These formations often become targets for smart money to collect liquidity above the swing highs
How to Use the Indicator:
1. The indicator will draw a diagonal line connecting a series of qualifying swing highs
2. A small "LRLR" label appears to mark the pattern
3. These areas often become targets for future price moves, as they represent zones of accumulated liquidity with minimal resistance
Key Points:
- Minimum of 4 consecutive lower swing highs
- No bearish fair value gaps can exist between these swing highs
- The diagonal line helps visualize the liquidity run formation
- Can be used for trade planning and identifying potential reversal zones
Settings:
- Show Labels: Toggle the "LRLR" label visibility
- LRLR Line Color: Customize the appearance of the diagonal line
Best Practices:
1. Use in conjunction with other ICT concepts and market structure analysis
2. Pay attention to how price reacts when returning to these levels
3. Consider these areas as potential targets for smart money liquidity grabs
4. Most effective when used on higher timeframes (4H and above)
Note: This is an educational tool and should be used as part of a complete trading strategy, not in isolation.

RSI Divergence + Sweep + Signal + Alerts Toolkit [TrendX_]The RSI Toolkit is a powerful set of tools designed to enhance the functionality of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator. By integrating advanced features such as Moving Averages, Divergences, and Sweeps, it helps traders identify key market dynamics, potential reversals, and newly-approach trading stragies.
The toolkit expands on standard RSI usage by incorporating features from smart money concepts (Just try to be creative 🤣 Hope you like it), providing a deeper understanding of momentum, liquidity sweeps, and trend reversals. It is suitable for RSI traders who want to make more informed and effective trading decisions.
💎 FEATURES
RSI Moving Average
The RSI Moving Average (RSI MA) is the moving average of the RSI itself. It can be customized to use various types of moving averages, including Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Relative Moving Average (RMA), and Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA).
The RSI MA smooths out the RSI fluctuations, making it easier to identify trends and crossovers. It helps traders spot momentum shifts and potential entry/exit points by observing when the RSI crosses above or below its moving average.
RSI Divergence
RSI Divergence identifies discrepancies between price action and RSI momentum. There are two types of divergences: Regular Divergence - Indicates a potential trend reversal; Hidden Divergence - Suggests the continuation of the current trend.
Divergence is a critical signal for spotting weakness or strength in a trend. Regular divergence highlights potential trend reversals, while hidden divergence confirms trend continuation, offering traders valuable insights into market momentum and possible trade setups.
RSI Sweep
RSI Sweep detects moments when the RSI removes liquidity from a trend structure by sweeping above or below the price at key momentum level crossing. These sweeps are overlaid on the RSI chart for easier visualized.
RSI Sweeps are significant because they indicate potential turning points in the market. When RSI sweeps occur: In an uptrend - they suggest buyers' momentum has peaked, possibly leading to a reversal; In a downtrend - they indicate sellers’ momentum has peaked, also hinting at a reversal.
(Note: This feature incorporates Liquidity Sweep concepts from Smart Money Concepts into RSI analysis, helping RSI traders identify areas where liquidity has been removed, which often precedes a trend reversal)
🔎 BREAKDOWN
RSI Moving Average
How MA created: The RSI value is calculated first using the standard RSI formula. The MA is then applied to the RSI values using the trader’s chosen type of MA (SMA, EMA, RMA, or VWMA). The flexibility to choose the type of MA allows traders to adjust the smoothing effect based on their trading style.
Why use MA: RSI by itself can be noisy and difficult to interpret in volatile markets. Applying moving average would provide a smoother, more reliable view of RSI trends.
RSI Divergence
How Regular Divergence created: Regular Divergence is detected when price forms HIGHER highs while RSI forms LOWER highs (bearish divergence) or when price forms LOWER lows while RSI forms HIGHER lows (bullish divergence).
How Hidden Divergence created: Hidden Divergence is identified when price forms HIGHER lows while RSI forms LOWER lows (bullish hidden divergence) or when price forms LOWER highs while RSI forms HIGHER highs (bearish hidden divergence).
Why use Divergence: Divergences provide early warning signals of a potential trend change. Regular divergence helps traders anticipate reversals, while hidden divergence supports trend continuation, enabling traders to align their trades with market momentum.
RSI Sweep
How Sweep created: Trend Structure Shift are identified based on the RSI crossing key momentum level of 50. To track these sweeps, the indicator pinpoints moments when liquidity is removed from the Trend Structure Shift. This is a direct application of Liquidity Sweep concepts used in Smart Money theories, adapted to RSI.
Why use Sweep: RSI Sweeps are created to help traders detect potential trend reversals. By identifying areas where momentum has exhausted during a certain trend direction, the indicator highlights opportunities for traders to enter trades early in a reversal or continuation phase.
⚙️ USAGES
Divergence + Sweep
This is an example of combining Devergence & Sweep in BTCUSDT (1 hour)
Wait for a divergence (regular or hidden) to form on the RSI. After the divergence is complete, look for a sweep to occur. A potential entry might be formed at the end of the sweep.
Divergences indicate a potential trend change, but confirmation is required to ensure the setup is valid. The RSI Sweep provides that confirmation by signaling a liquidity event, increasing the likelihood of a successful trade.
Sweep + MA Cross
This is an example of combining Devergence & Sweep in BTCUSDT (1 hour)
Wait for an RSI Sweep to form then a potential entry might be formed when the RSI crosses its MA.
The RSI Sweep highlights a potential turning point in the market. The MA cross serves as additional confirmation that momentum has shifted, providing a more reliable and more potential entry signal for trend continuations.
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
C|M Capital (Market Structure Pro)CM Capital (Market Structure Pro)
Overview:
The CM Capital (Market Structure Pro) Indicator is a groundbreaking tool for traders seeking a comprehensive market analysis. This closed-source script merges multiple facets of market dynamics into a single, user-friendly interface, designed to enhance decision-making by providing a multi-dimensional view of market behavior. By combining advanced market structure detection, liquidity event identification, Fair Value Gap analysis, and session-specific insights, this indicator offers traders a strategic advantage in navigating the complexities of financial markets.
Key Functionalities:
Market Structure Insights:
Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Shifts (MSS):
Methodology: Our approach uses fractal analysis coupled with custom algorithms to dissect price movements, identifying pivotal moments where market structure breaks or shifts. The script evaluates candle patterns, volume data, and price momentum to flag these events.
Customization: Users can choose between candle close or wick confirmations and select from various line styles for visualization, tailoring the sensitivity to match their trading strategy, whether it's scalping or swing trading.
Utility: These markers act as early signals for trend changes, allowing traders to prepare for potential reversals or continuations, especially useful in volatile markets where timely decisions are crucial.
Structure Strength:
Highs and Lows Definition: The 'Structure Strength' setting in this indicator directly influences the identification of structure highs and lows. It's not just about detecting market structure; it's about defining what constitutes a significant high or low based on your trading horizon.
Swing vs. Internal Structure:
Lower Strength: Opting for a lower strength setting will highlight more extreme, swing-type structures. This means the indicator will mark out only the most pronounced highs and lows, which are ideal for traders focusing on broader market swings or longer-term trends.
Higher Strength: Conversely, increasing the strength level plots more internal structure levels. This setting is perfect for traders who want to dive into the market's micro-movements, offering insights into potential support and resistance within ongoing trends, essentially capturing more reactive and detailed price action.
Strategic Application: This adjustable parameter allows traders to zoom in or out on the market structure, aligning with their trading style or the specific market conditions they're navigating. Whether you're looking to catch significant market turns or to finesse entries and exits within a trend, the structure strength setting provides the granularity needed for nuanced market analysis.
Liquidity Sweeps:
Detection: Beyond traditional price action analysis, our indicator incorporates a unique method to spot liquidity sweeps. By analyzing price movements against historical support/resistance zones, it highlights instances where significant orders might have been absorbed, suggesting areas of potential price reversal or continuation.
Visualization: Liquidity sweeps are visually marked with customizable colors and an 'X' label, making them instantly recognizable. This feature is particularly beneficial for traders looking to enter or exit trades based on market inefficiencies or anticipated institutional activity.
Application: Traders can use these signals to anticipate where the market might react strongly, either as support for entries or as a caution for exits, enhancing trade precision.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs):
Identification: Our proprietary FVG detection algorithm looks for price discrepancies over recent bars, signaling where the market could aim to rebalance. This is not merely about spotting gaps but understanding their context within the market's flow.
Enhanced Visualization: Users can extend FVGs across the chart, providing a clearer view of potential mean reversion points or continuation levels, aiding in setting targets or stop-losses.
Strategic Use: FVGs serve as dynamic levels where traders might expect price action to revisit, offering opportunities for mean reversion trades or confirming trend strength.
Session Visualization:
Session Markers: By delineating Asia, London, and New York session times, the indicator helps traders recognize session-specific volatility, trends, and liquidity conditions. Each session can be customized for color and duration, aligning with various trading strategies.
Timeframe Correlation: Integrating session analysis with structural and liquidity insights allows for a strategy where trades are timed not just by price action but by when in the global market cycle they occur, potentially increasing the effectiveness of entry and exit points.
Watermark Display:
Personalization: Add a personal touch or brand identity to your charts with customizable text and color options for the watermark, enhancing both the aesthetic and functional aspects of your trading setup.
Originality:
This script's originality lies in its holistic approach to market analysis. The integration of these diverse yet synergistic components provides a unique toolset:
Confluence of Signals: Each element enhances the others, creating a confluence where structural changes, liquidity events, and time-based market conditions are analyzed in concert, offering a more complete trading signal than isolated indicators.
Customization for Diverse Trading Styles: From high-frequency scalping to long-term trend following, the script's flexibility caters to a broad spectrum of trading strategies by allowing adjustments in sensitivity, visualization, and application.
How to Use:
Setup: Add the script to your chart and explore the settings in the input panel. Customize the visual and functional aspects to align with your trading style.
Strategy Application:
Use BOS/MSS for trend confirmation, liquidity sweeps for entry/exit precision, FVGs for mean reversion opportunities, and session markers to time your trades optimally.
Consider combining signals for stronger trade validation; for instance, a BOS during the London session might be more significant if it coincides with a liquidity sweep and an FVG from the Asian session.

Market Structure Inducements ICT [TradinFinder] CHoch BOS Sweeps🔵 Introduction
Market Structure is the foundation for identifying trends in the market, crucial in technical analysis and strategies like ICT and SMC. Understanding key concepts such as Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH) helps traders recognize critical shifts in the market. BOS, referring to a Market Structure Change (BMS), and CHOCH or Market Structure Shift (MSS) signal trend reversals in the market.
Additionally, the concept of Inducement, a vital tool in Smart Money strategies, allows traders to avoid price traps. Identifying valid pullback, valid inducement, POI, and Liquidity Grab helps traders find optimal entry and exit points and leverage Smart Money movements effectively.
Bullish Market Structure :
Bearish Market Structure :
🔵 How to Use
The Market Structure indicator is designed to help traders better understand market structure and detect price traps. By using this indicator, you can identify the right entry and exit points based on structural changes in the market and avoid unprofitable trades. Below, we explain the key concepts and how to apply them in trading.
🟣 Market Structure
Market Structure refers to the overall pattern of price movement in the market. Using this indicator, traders can identify uptrends and downtrends and make better trading decisions based on changes in market structure. The two key concepts here are Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH).
Change of Character (CHOCH) : CHOCH occurs when the market shifts from an uptrend to a downtrend or vice versa. These changes typically indicate a broader trend reversal, and the indicator assists you in identifying them accurately.
Break of Structure (BOS) : When the market breaks a key support or resistance level, it signals a change in market structure. This indicator helps you identify these breakouts in time and take advantage of trading opportunities.
🟣 Inducement
Inducement refers to price traps set by Smart Money to trick retail traders into making the wrong trades. This indicator helps you recognize these traps and avoid unprofitable trades.
Valid Inducement : Valid Inducement refers to deliberately created price traps by major market players to gather liquidity from retail traders. Once the market has collected sufficient liquidity, it makes the real move, and professional traders use this moment to enter.
🟣 Valid Pullback
A Valid Pullback refers to a temporary market retracement, indicating a price correction within the main trend. This concept is crucial in technical analysis as it helps traders enter trades at the right time and profit from the continuation of the trend. The Market Structure indicator can identify these valid retracements, allowing traders to enter trades with greater confidence.
🟣 Point of Interest (POI)
Another important concept in market analysis is the Point of Interest (POI), referring to key price areas on the chart. POI includes zones where significant price movements are likely to occur. The Market Structure indicator helps you locate these key points and use them as entry signals for trades.
🟣 Liquidity Grab
Liquidity Grab refers to a scenario where the market intentionally moves to areas where retail traders' stop losses are placed. The goal is to gather liquidity, allowing major players to execute trades at better prices. By using this indicator, you can spot these liquidity grabs and avoid falling into price traps.
🔵 Setting
ChoCh Detector Period : The period of identifying the major market levels that occur when they break ChoCh.
BoS & Liquidity Detector Period : The period of identifying minor levels, which are used to identify BoS and Liquidity levels.
Inducement Detector Period : The period of identification of Inducement levels.
Fast Trend Detector : This feature will help you update the major market structure levels sooner.
Inducement Type Detector : Two modes "Sweeps" and "Total" can be used to identify the levels of Inducement. In "Sweeps" mode only Levels detected by touch shadow. In "Total" mode, all Levels are detected.
🔵 Conclusion
In financial market analysis and forex trading, identifying Market Structure and Inducement is crucial. Market Structure helps you detect uptrends and downtrends, and understand Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH). The concept of Inducement also enables traders to spot Smart Money price traps and avoid unprofitable trades.
The Market Structure indicator is a powerful tool that, by analyzing the market structure and concepts like valid pullback and valid inducement, helps you make more precise trade entries.

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

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

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

Uptrick: Volume StrengthPurpose:
The "Uptrick: Volume Strength" indicator, known by its short title 'VolStrength,' is meticulously designed to evaluate the strength of volume activity within a market, providing traders with valuable insights into liquidity dynamics. By visualizing volume bars and comparing them to a predefined threshold, traders can gauge the intensity of buying or selling pressure, thereby assessing market liquidity and potential price movements.
Explanation:
Input Parameters:
Traders benefit from the ability to customize the threshold for high volume, allowing them to adapt the indicator to varying market conditions and trading strategies.
The calculation of the average volume over a specified period adds depth to the analysis, offering traders a reference point for assessing current volume levels relative to historical averages and evaluating liquidity trends.
Volume Analysis:
The script discerns between bars where the closing price exceeds the opening price (up bars) and bars where the closing price is lower than the opening price (down bars), facilitating the identification of bullish or bearish market sentiment.
High-volume bars that surpass the predefined threshold are prominently highlighted, serving as indicators of increased trading activity and enhanced liquidity levels.
Average Volume Visualization:
A line representing the average volume over the specified period is plotted on the chart, providing traders with a visual reference for evaluating current volume levels against historical averages. This aids in assessing the overall liquidity conditions in the market.
Volume Bar Representation:
The colorization of volume bars is contingent upon their direction (up or down) and whether they exceed the high volume threshold.
Up bars, symbolizing buying pressure, are typically depicted in green, while down bars, indicative of selling pressure, are rendered in red.
Notably, when volume surpasses the high volume threshold, the respective bar color is applied, accentuating significant volume spikes and their potential impact on liquidity and price dynamics.
Through its meticulous design and comprehensive features, the "Uptrick: Volume Strength" indicator equips traders with actionable insights into market liquidity dynamics. By integrating volume analysis into their trading strategies, traders can effectively assess liquidity conditions, identify potential price movements, and make informed trading decisions.
OptiRange | FractalystWhat’s the purpose of this indicator?
This indicator is designed to integrate probabilities with liquidity levels, while also providing a mechanical method for identifying market structure by using Fractals by Williams.
----
How does this indicator identify market structure?
This script identifies breaks of market structure by analyzing candle closures above or below swing levels.
As soon as a candle has closed above or below the initial swing on your charts, the script validates that there is at least one swing preceding the break before confirming it as a structural break.
Once a break is occured then it assigns a numeric ID to the break starting from 1 and draws two extremities: one as liquidity and the other as invalidation (LIQ/INV).
----
What do the extremities show us on the charts?
you'll see two clear extremities on your charts:
1. The first extremity represents the structural liquidity level. (LIQ)
2. The other extremity indicates the level that, if price breaks through it, results in a structural shift to the opposite side. (INV)
----
How does it calculate probabilities?
Each break of market structure, denoted as X, is assigned a unique ID, starting from X1 for the first break, X2 for the second, and so on.
The probabilities are calculated based on breaks holding, meaning price closing through the liquidity level, rather than invalidation. This probability is then divided by the total count of similar numeric breaks.
For example, if 75 out of 100 bullish X1s become X2, then the probability of X1 becoming X2 on your charts will be displayed as 80% in the following format: ⬆ 75%
----
What are the Fractal blocks?
Fractal blocks refer to the most extreme swing candle within the latest break. They can serve as significant levels for price rejection and may guide movements toward the next break, often in confluence with probability analysis for added confirmation.
If the price retraces back to a bullish fractal block, we aim to look for buy/long positions. Conversely, if the price retraces back to a bearish fractal block, we aim to look for sell/short positions.
----
What are mitigations?
Mitigations refer to specific price action occurrences identified by the script:
1- When the price reaches the most recent fractal block and confirms a swing candle, the script automatically draws a line from the swing to the fractal block bar and labels it with a checkmark.
1- If the price wicks through the invalidation level and then retraces back to the fractal block while forming a swing candle, the script labels this as a double mitigation on the chart.
This level will serve as the next potential invalidation level if a break occurs in the same direction.
----
What does the bottom table display?
The bottom table presents numeric breaks across multiple timeframes, with the text color indicating the trend direction. Enabling traders to assess the higher timeframes market trend without needing to switch between timeframes manually.
----
How to use the indicator?
1. Add "OptiRange | Fractalyst" to your TradingView chart.
2. Choose the pair you want to analyze or trade.
3. Start with the 12-month timeframe.
4. Use the table bias with the maximal settings to find the lowest timeframe that’s showing you the mitigation (✓)
5. Confirm that the probability of the current liquidity is higher than 50%.
6. Place your limit order at the Fibonacci level of 0.618 of the mitigation candle.
7. Set your stop-loss at the mitigation level.
8. Determine your take profit based on the liquidity of the current timeframe, or if possible, the liquidity of a higher timeframe in the same direction; otherwise, use the liquidity of the current timeframe.
9. Risk adjustment and Trade management based on your personal preferences.

What makes this indicator original?
- This script leverages Fractals, a fundamental concept in many trading methodologies.
- For a break to be considered valid, price must have at least two swings:
a swing high followed by a swing low for bullish breaks and a swing low follow by a swing high for bearish breaks.
- This means that each swing point is confirmed by the formation of two candles on its left and two candles on its right, totaling 5 candles for each swing high and swing low, thus requiring 10 candles overall. (This strict rule ensures a thorough assessment of market structure before confirming a break.)
- The script assigns a unique numerical ID to each break of structure, starting from 1.
This numbering system enables the script to calculate the probability of the most recent break becoming the next break, while also factoring in the trend direction.
- Additionally, this script provides insights into higher timeframes' break IDs in the bottom/top centre table, keeping traders informed about the overall higher timeframe picture.
- By integrating these methodologies, the script introduces a unique and systematic method for identifying market structure, thereby enhancing its originality in guiding trading decisions.

TradesAI - Elite (Premium)This is an all-inclusive, premium indicator that focuses mainly on price action analysis, a form of looking at raw price data and market structure to analyze and capture areas of interest where price could react.
This indicator is a perfect trading companion that saves you a lot of time in trading price action. Some of the popular methods that use price action analysis are "Smart Money Concepts (SMC)", "Inner Circle Trader (ICT)", and "Institutional Trading".
🔶 POWERFUL TOOLS
The indicator combines three main tools as a trading suite:
Trendlines
Market Structure Breakouts (MSB)
Order Blocks (OBs) and Reversal Order Blocks (ROBs)
These 3 main tools are interconnected together. Below we go over each, and then explain how and why they are brought in together. Please also note that the indicator's settings have tooltips next to most of them, with more detailed information.
🔶 TRENDLINES
This indicator automatically draws the most relevant Trendlines from pivot high/pivot low (based on the defined settings) as origins, while keeping track of candle closes across these Trendlines to adjust or invalidate accordingly.
The indicator will draw all possible Trendlines up to the maximum allowed by TradingView's PineScript. It uses a bullish pivot high candle to draw downtrends, and a bearish pivot low candle to draw uptrends. The algorithm will draw the most suitable active Trendlines from those origin points.
The indicator takes the origin point as the first point of the Trendline, then starts looking for the immediate next same-type candle (bullish to bullish or bearish to bearish), to draw the Trendline between the origin candle and this newer candle.
An uptrend is a ray connecting two bearish candles, as long as the second candle has a Low higher than the low of the origin (first) candle. A downtrend is a ray connecting two bullish candles, as long as the second candle has a high lower than the high of the origin (first) candle.
Upon drawing, the indicator then starts monitoring and adjusting this Trendline, by keeping the origin always the same but changing the second point. The goal is to keep reducing the slope of the Trendline till it is at 0 degrees (horizontal line). That then makes the Trendline "final". Note that you have the option to keep all Trendlines or just show the final, in the settings.
So, the algorithm has three states for the Trendlines:
Initial: not tested, meaning price hasn't yet broken through it and closed a candle beyond it, to cause a re-adjustment of this Trendline.
Broken: a candle hard closed (opened and closed) across it but still, the direction of the trend is maintained with a new Trendline from the same origin – could be replaced (or kept on the chart as a "backside", which is what we call a broken Trendline to be tested from the opposite side) with a new Trendline from the same origin, to the newest candle that caused the break to happen, as then it becomes the new second point of that Trendline.
Final: a candle hard closed (opened and closed) across it and can't draw a new Trendline from the same origin maintaining the direction of the trend (so an uptrend becomes a downtrend or a downtrend becomes an uptrend at this point, which is not allowed). This marks the end of the Trendline adjustment for that origin.
To summarize the Trendlines algorithm, imagine starting from a candle and drawing the Trendline, then keep re-adjusting it to make its slope less and less, till it becomes a horizontal line. That's the final state.
Here is a step-by-step scenario to demonstrate the algorithm:
Notice how first an Uptrend (green ray) is drawn between point A origin pivot (picked by our smart algorithm) and point B, both marked by green arrows:
Uptrend then turned into backside (where it flips from diagonal support to resistance where liquidity potentially resides):
Then a new uptrend is drawn from the same point A origin pivot to a new point B matching the filters in settings.
Finally, it turns also into a backside and is considered final because no more uptrends could be drawn from the same point A origin point.
Unlike traditional Trendline tools, this indicator takes into account numerous rules for each candlestick to determine valid support and resistance levels, which act as liquidity zones.
Unlike conventional Trendline tools, this indicator allows the user to define the pivot point left and right length to capture the proper ones as origins, then automatically recognizes and extends lines from them as liquidity zones where a reaction is expected. Moreover, the indicator monitors those Trendlines in real-time to switch them from buying to selling zones, and vice-versa, as the price structure changes.
Features
Log vs. Linear scale switch to show different Trendlines accordingly. When updating the Trendlines, or deciding whether Touches/Hard Closes are met, it makes a difference.
Ability to show all forms of Trendlines, final Trendlines or just backside Trendlines.
Why is it used?
For experienced traders, it offers the advantage of time efficiency, while new traders can bypass the steep learning curve of drawing Trendlines manually, which could practically be drawn between any two candlesticks on the chart (many variations).
🔶 MARKET STRUCTURE BREAKOUT (MSB)
The Market Structure Breakouts (MSB) tool is a trading tool that detects specific patterns on trading charts and provides ‘take profit’ regions based on the extended direction of the identified pattern. A breakout is a potential trading opportunity that presents itself when an asset's price moves away from a zone of accumulation (i.e. above a resistance level or below a support level) on increasing volume. The most famous form of market structure breakout is double/triple tops/bottoms, or what is referred to as W or M breakouts.
See this example below of how our MSB smart algorithm picked the local bottom of INDEX:BTCUSD
Here is a step-by-step scenario to demonstrate the algorithm:
First, the algorithm picks the pivot points according to our Machine Learning (ML) model, which uses Average True Range (ATR) and Moving Averages of various types to decide. It will then signal a Market Structure Breakout (MSB):
You may either short (sell) this MSB towards the targets (dotted green lines) and/or buy (long) at the targets (dotted green lines). Usually, these targets provide scalp moves, according to our model, but they may also act as strong reversal points on the chart.
Unlike standard indicators, the MSB tool identifies patterns that may not appear in every time frame due to specific conditions that need to be met, including Average True Range (ATR) and Moving Averages at the time of creation. Once these patterns are identified, the tool gives ‘take profit’ regions in the direction of the trading pattern and even allows for trading in the opposite direction (contrarian/counter-trend scalps) once those regions are reached. A confirmed breakout has the potential to drive the price to these specific targets, calculated based on our Machine Learning (ML) model. The Targets are the measured moves placed from the breakout point.
Features
Log vs. Linear scale switch to show different MSBs accordingly based on the ratios.
Detects trading patterns with specific conditions.
Ability to specify how sensitive the pivot points are for capturing market structure breakouts.
Provides take profit regions in the extended direction of the pattern.
Allows for versatile trading styles by permitting trades in the opposite direction (contrarian or counter-trend) once the take profit region is reached.
Highlights 2 levels of interest for potential trade initiation (or as targets of the MSB move).
🔶 ORDER BLOCK (OB) and REVERSAL ORDER BLOCK (ROB)
Before diving deeper into OBs and ROBs, you may consider the following chart for a general understanding of price ladders, and how they break. This is a bearish price ladder leaving Lower Lows and Lower Highs after an initial Low and High (L->H->LL->LH). Bullish ladders are the opposite (H->L->HH->HL).
In this bearish ladder case, notice the numbers representing the highs made (being lower). While this is a clean structure, markets don't always create such clean ladders, but you may switch to a higher timeframe to see it in a clearer form (usually, you will be able to spot it there).
In SMC or ICT concepts, the "Break Of Structure (BOS)" is pretty much creating a new lower low (LL) for the bearish ladder (and the creation of a higher high (HH) for the bullish ladder). By doing so, markets are grabbing liquidity below these levels and could either continue the ladder or stop/flip it. This gives you the context of how the ladder prints.
Price usually ends the ladder with a "Change of Character (CHoCH)", which represents a BOS (to grab liquidity) followed by an aggressive move in the opposite direction, which could lead the market to close the gaps and balance out. It is considered a good practice to then target liquidity in the opposite direction when a CHoCH happens, meaning for a bearish ladder you may target the pivots marked by 3, 2 and 1 at the top (start of the ladder).
Now we move to Order Blocks (OBs) and Reversal Order Blocks (ROBs). Think of them as sniper zones or micro ladders inside the bigger ladder/structure.
Order Blocks are usually used as zones of support and resistance on a trading chart where liquidity is present, or what some traders call "potential institutional interest zones". Order Blocks can be observed at the beginning of these strong moves of BOS or the CHoCH, leaving behind a zone (one or more candles) to be revisited later to balance the market. Therefore, these are interesting levels to place Limit/Market orders (sell the peaks or buy the valleys) instead of doing so at the swing highs or swing lows of the ladder (where BOS or CHoCH happened). The idea here is that the price could go deep into the ladder's step (peak or valley), and by doing so, it usually goes to these zones.
A bullish Order Block (Valley-OB) is the last bearish candle of a downtrend before a sequence of bullish candles (thus forming a "Valley"). A bearish Order Block (Peak-OB) is the last bullish candle of an uptrend before a sequence of bearish candles (thus forming a "Peak"). Our indicator captures the full range zones of the OB meaning not only the last candle but the sequence of same-type candles immediately next to it, which creates a zone, thus the name "OB/ROB Zone". Not only does the tool mark those levels on the chart, but it also has a smart tracking algorithm to remove the appropriate levels dynamically. It will monitor, candle by candle, what is happening to all the OBs/ROBs, and update them according to how they are being tested/visited (eg. weak testing being a touch, and strong testing being a touch of the same colour candle).
Bullish Valley-OB:
Bearish Peak-OB:
The indicator follows our concept of "Zone Activation" to determine whether to mark zones with dashed or solid lines.
If we take a bearish Peak-OB as an example, notice how it first gets drawn with a dashed red line (as the algorithm monitors how far the price moved away from the zone):
As price moves away (distance based on our Machin Learning (ML) model), it turns into solid lines:
Some people prefer to enter market orders or limit (pending) orders close to the zone, while others wait for it to hit. You may wait for these zones to turn into solid lines (meaning that the price made a decent move away from it before revisiting it). It depends on your trading strategy.
When Order Block (OB) zones break instead of holding the ladder, they turn into what we call Reversal Order Blocks (ROB); our algorithm of flipping these zones where price could react from the other side of the OB. Our algorithm monitor and highlight the most suitable ones to trade, based on +30 conditions and variables by our Machine Learning (ML) models. Examples of ROBs in the SMC or ICT trading community are a "Breaker Block", a "Mitigation Block" or a "Unicorn Setup". However, our algorithm filters the zones based on many factors such as ratios of price movement before, inside and after these zones, along with many other factors.
The algorithm monitors the ratios of how price moved into and away from the OB/ROB, as well as the type of move happening, to then filter the ones that are considered of high probability to break/not do a reaction.
A bullish Valley-OB (green) turns into a bearish Valley-ROB (neon red) where you may short (sell), while a bearish Peak-OB (red) turns into a bullish Peak-ROB (neon green) where you may long (buy).
Example of a bullish Valley-OB that turned into a bearish Valley-ROB:
Features
Log vs. Linear scale switch to show OBs/ROBs accordingly based on the ratios and the price action around these zones (before and after creation).
Uses our Machine Learning (ML) model to determine relevant Order Blocks (OBs) to show or hide based on price action.
Considers distribution and accumulation candles to find relevant Order Blocks.
Various types of triggers to mark those Order Blocks and their zones: breakout, close, hard close (open and close) or full close (low, high, open and close).
Monitors the 1:1 expansion of price from key areas of interest, which would change the importance of the zones through our concept of “Zone Activation”.
Allows for customization in the settings to display different types of Order Blocks (e.g., tested or untested).
Marking and invalidating levels based on many variables, including single or multiple candle zones, touching/closing beyond specific levels, weak/strong testing criteria, price tolerance % (near a level), and many more.
Provides color-coded visual representation for easier interpretation.
Why is it used?
Order Blocks (OB) and Reversal Order Blocks (ROB) represent the building blocks of price ladders, in conjunction with Swing Highs and Swing Lows. By identifying where liquidity is potentially present, they become common targets for big market players. Additionally, they provide clear invalidation points based on various types of candle closes, such as hard closes or simply a candle close.
One strategy that could be used is to open positions at these OB or ROB Levels as long as the chart maintains the trend (ladder), for a potentially higher win rate (or against it for a quick scalp). Be mindful of the breaking of a ladder or the building of a new one. A ladder breaks with a hard close (open and close) of a candle across the closest two levels; a ladder builds by not breaking back down across the levels it has tested. By definition, strong ladders will have a few untested levels and come back to wick them but still retain the structure of the laddering direction (trending with Lower Lows + Lower Highs or Higher Lows + Higher Highs).
🔶 COMBINING ALL TOOLS
In summary, Trendlines could be great tools to give you a general context of whether the price is laddering up or down. Once you spot the ladder, your goal is to either trade in its direction (not to go against the trend) or to counter-trend trade (contrarian). To do so, you could use the MSB tool to spot these BOS/CHoCH. And to give you more precise entries, you may rely on the OB/ROB zones which usually mesh over the ladder, to provide a sniper entry!

Time Matrix [Pro+] (DRxICT)Description:
The Time Matrix Pro is an automated Time-based trading tool adaptable to futures, forex, and bond markets. This indicator is inspired by concepts taught by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) and ICT_Concepts.
ICT’s repertoire encompasses the concepts of liquidity and couples them with Time. The Time Matrix helps the analyst to locate key Time-based price levels to determine bias and recurring price patterns within the market. Analysts can use levels like Previous Day’s Highs and Lows, Weekly Highs and Lows, Session Openings, and Macros to base and qualify Premium and Discount arrays in intraday analysis.
Session Boxes are Time opportunities of the day that identify the market mechanics of consolidation, expansion, retracement, and reversals.
ICT_Concepts's Session Boxes are described as the Premarket, AM Session, PM session:
Premarket is defined as 9:30pm to 1:30am
AM session is defined as 4:00am to 11:00am
PM Session is defined as 11:30am to 2:15pm
Understanding how Time is crucial for identifying intraday profiling, the analyst is able to toggle price levels in conjunction with Time-based macros. These help analyze key market turning points that can correspond to unique market mechanics.
Beyond the Time-based liquidity levels, and the Time macros, there are also predefined Time clusters.
These clusters highlight a significant lower Timeframe candle which was found to hold significant value by ICT_Concepts. Very much alike Time-based liquidity levels, analysts will notice how price reacts to support or negate existing orderflow, trend and direction.
Key Features:
Customizable Extension: the analyst is given the choice to toggle the ending Time Offset to either Noon NY Time or at the end of the trading day.
Time-Based Toggles: choose individual Time-based prices to highlight on your chart.
Time Table: depending on the Timeframe, the Time Table will display the number of bars and the Time elapsed since the Time-based liquidity levels were established.
Other Features
Customize Session Boxes Color
Customize Time-Based Liquidity Line Style
Customize Time-Based Liquidity Level Color
Customize Time-Based Liquidity Line Width
Customize Table Size and Location
Usage Guidance:
Add Time Matrix to your Tradingview chart.
Customize your desired settings of Time-Based Liquidity Levels to align with your personal preference.
Observe where the Time-Based Liquidity Levels as well as Previous Day, Week, and Macros play a role in intraday narrative.
Analysts can choose to utilize Time-Based Liquidity Levels as automated framework to organize models and layouts.
These tools are available ONLY on the TradingView platform.

TradeMaster ProTrading effectively requires a range of techniques, experience, and expertise. From technical analysis to market fundamentals, traders must navigate multiple factors, including market sentiment and economic conditions. However, traders often find themselves overwhelmed by market noise, making it challenging to filter out distractions and make informed decisions. To address this, we present a powerful indicator package designed to assist traders on their journey to success.
The TradeMaster indicator package encompasses a variety of trading strategies, including the SMC (Supply, Demand, and Price Action) approach, along with many other techniques. By leveraging concepts such as price action trading, support and resistance analysis, supply and demand dynamics, these indicators can empower traders to analyze entry and exit positions with precision. Unlike other forms of technical analysis that produce values or plots based on historical price data, Price Action brings you the facts straight from the source - the current price movements.
The indicator package consists of three powerful indicators that can be used individually or together to maximize trading effectiveness.
⭐ About the Pro Indicator
The Pro indicator is the cornerstone of the package, offering a comprehensive range of functions. It's strength lies in our unique structure calculation, which is based on real price action data, capturing every ticks from small intraday fluctuations to the significant high timeframe movements. The Pro Indicator reflects our personal use and deep comprehension of Smart Money Concepts. It provides streamlined tools for tracking algorithmic trends with modern visualizations, without unnecessary clutter.
In the ever-evolving trading landscape, mainstream methods and strategies can quickly become outdated as they are widely adopted. Liquidity is constantly sought after, and the best source for this is exploring and exploiting trading strategies that are widely accepted and applied. Currently, one of these strategies is the SMC (Supply, Demand, and Price Action).
It's no coincidence that our educational materials incorporate concepts such as liquidity grabs (LG) and Smart Money Traps (SMT). As the application of SMC gains popularity among retail traders, trading with this approach becomes more challenging. Therefore, the recent focus has been on reforming the SMC methodology, as it is the only method that relies on real price movements and will always work when applied correctly.
▸ What does proper application of SMC entail?
Many SMC traders associate their key areas of interest with the market structure, which is generally considered acceptable. However, depending solely on a single foundation can lead to significant deviations, which may cause notable impacts on trading results. Moreover, if the basis for the market structure calculation is inaccurate, the consequences can be even more severe. It's akin to risking money on a lottery ticket, believing it will be a winner.
Our methodology is different, and it may ensure longevity in the financial markets. The structure remains crucial, but it is not the sole foundation of everything; instead, it serves as a validation tool. Each calculation, such as order blocks (OB), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), liquidity grabs (LG), range analysis, and more, is independent and unique, separate from the structure. However, validation must ultimately come from the structure itself.
We employ individual and high-quality filters: before a function calculation is validated by the structure, it must undergo rigorous testing based on its own set of validation conditions. This approach aims to enhance robustness and accuracy, providing traders with a reliable framework for making informed trading decisions.
▸ An example for structure validation: Order Block with "Swing Sensitivity"
These order blocks will only be displayed and utilized by the script if there is a swing structure validation with a valid break. In other words, the presence of a confirmed swing Change of Character (ChoCh) or Break of Structure (BoS) is essential for the Order Block to be considered valid and relevant.
This approach ensures that the order blocks are aligned with the overall market structure and are not based on isolated or unreliable price movements. Whether it's Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Liquidity Grabs (LG), Range calculations, or other functionalities, the same underlying principle holds true. The background structure calculation serves as a validation mechanism for the data and insights generated by these functions, ensuring they adhere to the specific criteria and rules established within our methodology. By incorporating this robust validation process, traders can have confidence in the reliability and accuracy of the information provided by the indicator, allowing them to make informed trading decisions based on validated data and analysis.
👉 Usage - the general approach:
Determine your trading style using the Pro Indicator and build your basic strategy. This indicator helps you understand your trading style, whether it's swing trading, scalping or another approach. By analyzing the Pro Indicator, you gain valuable information about potential market trends, entry and exit points, and overall market sentiment.
👉 Example of usage:
In the following chart, you'll notice how we've utilized the indicator to formulate a strategic trading approach. We've employed Order Blocks equipped with volume parameters to identify crucial market zones. Simultaneously, we've leveraged swing/internal market structures to gain insights into potential long and short-term market turnarounds. Lastly, we've examined trend line liquidity zones to pinpoint probable impulses and breakouts within ongoing trends.
Now we can see how the price descended to the order block with the highest volume, which we had previously marked as our point of interest for an entry. As the price closed below the median Order Block, we noted its mitigation. After an internal CHoCH, it's directing us towards the main Order Block as a target.
👉 Smart Money Concepts Functions
Market Structure: identifies and marks key structural changes in the market, in order to visually highlight shifts in market trends and patterns. This feature is designed to alert you of significant changes in the market's behavior, signaling a potential shift from accumulation to distribution phase, or vice versa. It helps traders adapt their strategies based on evolving market dynamics.
Order Blocks: pinpoints crucial zones where large institutional investors ("smart money") have shown strong buying or selling interest recently. Order blocks can serve as a tool for identifying key levels for potential trade entries or exits.
FVGs (Fair Value Gaps): detects discrepancies between the perceived market value and actual market price, revealing potential areas for price correction. With its mitigation settings, you can fine-tune the FVG detection according to the magnitude of value misalignment you consider significant.
Liquidity Grabs: helps track "smart money" footprints by identifying levels where large institutional traders may have induced liquidity traps. Understanding these traps can aid in avoiding false market moves and optimizing trade entries.
Automatic Fibonacci Tool: Simplifying the task of identifying key Fibonacci retracement and extension levels, this tool ties Fibonacci levels to the structure for you. It aids in recognizing significant support and resistance levels, providing a clearer understanding of potential price movements.
The Smart Money Concepts trading strategy - combined with these dynamic features - becomes a powerful analytical asset for any trader, providing in-depth insights into market dynamics, trends, and potential opportunities.
👉 Algorithmic trend and dynamic support and resistance
Trend Rainbow: This proprietary feature uses our unique TRMA** method to define short-term, medium-term, and long-term market trends. It incorporates state-of-the-art visualization techniques to render the trend information in an intuitive, easily interpretable manner. It's a 21st-century tool designed for the modern trader who values both precision and simplicity.
Multi-Timeframe Moving Averages: This feature allows traders to simultaneously monitor moving averages across multiple timeframes, providing a comprehensive perspective on market trends. It helps identify dynamic support and resistance zones, key levels where price movements are likely to slow down or reverse. This function not only aids in planning potential trade entries and exits, but also calculates the precise percentage distance to these levels. Can be as well crucial for risk management, enabling traders to set stop losses and profit targets based on solid, data-driven analysis. The Multi-Timeframe Moving Averages function is a versatile tool that combines strategic planning and risk control into a single, easy-to-use feature.
👉 Unlock the Hidden Market Dynamics
Market Sessions: This feature - by default - provides a clear representation of the four major global trading sessions. Each session is distinctly marked on your trading chart, helping you visualize the specific time periods when these markets are most active. Recognizing these sessions is critical for understanding market dynamics, as the opening and closing of major markets can lead to significant price movements. Whether you're a day trader looking to exploit intra-day volatility or a long-term investor wanting to understand broader market trends, the Market Sessions feature can be a useful tool in your trading toolkit.
Divergence Functions: allow the use of unique indicators along with our proprietary ones to detect potential price reversals. As each asset has a different market maker, divergences can vary greatly across different charts and timeframes. With our Divergence Ranking Table, you can quickly determine which divergences have the highest success rates and which are the least successful on a given chart. This feature allows you to adapt your strategies to the most effective signals, enhancing your trading decisions and boosting your potential profits.
Volume Profile with delta: This feature may give traders an edge by providing an in-depth view of market activity. It illustrates the amount of trading volume at different price levels, combined with the 'delta', which is the difference between buying and selling volume. This information allows you to see areas of high trading activity and understand whether the volume is pushing the price up or down. This real-time insight into the market's supply and demand can be instrumental in identifying key support and resistance levels, predicting potential reversals, and recognizing where the market is likely to move. Similarly to Fibonacci tool, Volume Profile can be tied to the current market structure.
👉 Improve Trading Decisions
Range: This innovative feature assists traders in determining discount, premium, and equilibrium zones. It provides a unique way of visualizing price areas where a security could be overbought or oversold (premium or discount zones), and where the price is expected to be fair and balanced (equilibrium zone). Distance from current price is displayed in percentage terms, which can assist traders with crucial data for risk management and strategic planning. The Range function helps you identify the most favorable price zones for entries and set your stop-loss and take-profit levels more accurately.
Previous OHLC: This functionality offers the capability to display the previous Open, High, Low, Close values. It is primarily set on the daily timeframe and serves as an important reference for traders. Having an overview of these key levels from the previous day gives you a solid foundation on which to base today's trading decisions. Recognizing these levels can help you predict potential turning points in the market, providing an advantage in your trading strategy.
Smart Money Zones: our secret weapon for swing traders. Similarly to order blocks, these zones can accurately identify crucial areas of strong buying or selling interest by large institutional investors. However while Order Blocks focus on recent price action, Smart Money Zones take the whole chart into consideration, resulting in more established support and demand zones.
The summary graph combines six unique indicators (Momentum, Trend Strength, Volume, Volatility, Asset Strength, and Sentiment) along with Structure and Sessions. These indicators use our TRMA** method to provide a comprehensive overview of market dynamics. By consolidating these indicators into a single graph, traders can gain valuable insights into the overall market landscape.
** TRMA (Trend Rainbow Moving Averages) is a complex but customizable moving average matrix calculation that is designed to measure market trend direction, strength and shifting.
⭐ Conclusion
We hold the view that the true path to success is the synergy between the trader and the tool, contrary to the common belief that the tool itself is the sole determinant of profitability. The actual scenario is more nuanced than such an oversimplification. Our aim is to offer useful features that meet the needs of the 21st century and that we actually use.

Benefits & Examples:
In the image below the indicator signaled multiple entries based on two simple confluence filters, a MS reversal (CHoCH/MSS) and a Liquidity Raid. Going from left to right we can see a short entry at the highs with a supporting Order Block. Liquidity levels are taken before we see a double IDM right below the respected OB that leads to the next signaled entry. In the middle of the chart we see a long entry that leads right into a short entry showing the effectiveness of such a simple model.
In this supporting image we are showcasing the first implementation of the Trade Overlay feature. This feature displays the Entry and Stop Loss to make it more visible and adds a risk to reward target. Additionally displayed is the SMC Toolkit indicator showing us additional confirmation with our signaled entries playing right out of a higher timeframe FVG.
An additional entry feature is the MTF zone. Setups can form on all timeframes and subjecting yourself to only one may lead you to miss out on some perfect setups or a larger move. In the image below we are on the 1 minute timeframe. We can see the Initial Reversal Entry which played out beautifully and filled a higher timeframe SFVG. With the MTF zone we can see a 3 minute and 5 minute Zone which produces the rest of the trend reaching another higher timeframe SFVG after filling the previous one. Once again showing the benefit of the Toolkit indicator but the plotted entries from such a simple model.
In addition to the model indicators filtered out entry zone, we can use additional confluences to confirm these entries. In the image below we can see a short entry printed after a move out of the Std. Dev. vwap wave which shows over extension. Taking the entry we can have a tight stop loss at the vwap wave or the recent high where we have a liquidity level, targeting a lower liquidity level or higher timeframe FVG.
For this example we are only filtering based on MS Reversals (CHoCH/MSS) to get our entries. Because of this we need additional confirmation to be confident in taking the plotted entry. In the image below you can see a long signal printed, confirmation being the previous Failed Reversal.
Volume Tick Analysis and Order Blocks [Tcs] | ALGOThe indicator has been developed to provide the most complete vision possible of liquidity areas, highly traded past price levels, and how volume tick analysis affects price action.
It helps to draw on all the areas that generate a price move, or market inefficiency.
The indicator has different features:
- ORDER BLOCKS : The indicator draws different kinds of order blocks on the chart.
• Real valuable order blocks - where the price reaction is more probable. It's define by a calculation of the quantity tick volume exchanged between bulls and bears on a price level, which can create a candle event, such as engulfing candles. For this motivation the order blocks plotted will be a real valuable area.
The threshold can be adjusted based on the strategy's needs, in particular this set up has been added to adapt the strategy on different kind of asset. For Cryptocurrency for example the best threshold are between 0.5 and 1. The lower the value, the fewer order blocks will be plotted, but they will be more valuable. It's possible to show the volume exchanged, the percentage, and who controlled the valuable area, bulls or bears, on these order blocks.
For a better visualization, the order block will change color (more transparent) after it will be violated for the first time, and it will be deleted once the price will break trough it.
All order blocks can be extend
GENERAL OB VISUALIZATION
EXAMPLE OF TRADES ON OB
It's also possible to plot the footprint of past and invalidated order blocks on the chart, which can help to draw lines for future valuable areas.
• Secondary order blocks are less valuable order blocks where the probability of a price reaction is less. Usually, they work for small retracements and are more useful for scalpers. the concept is the same as Primary order blocks but without a too restricted calculation of tick volume exchanged
• LIQUIDITY GRABS: Liquidity grabs are plotted on candles that try to invalidate an order block, but high volumes move them to the opposite direction. They happen when opposite players try to move the market in the opposite direction. They are calculated only on primary order blocks.
A good entry usually is when a liquidity grab appear, the price come in the liquidity grab area to fry liquidity and price close again in the liquidity grab area.
• VOLUME VSA: All candles with high and above-average volume are plotted on the chart for both bull and bear volume. It highlights more than average volume, high volume, and extreme volume with different colors. This can help to spot good entries or detect beginning/end of a trend. For example abnormal high volume at the end of a big price movement, in the same direction, can define the end of a trend. If same situation of abnormal high volume, but in the opposite direction of the trend, could define the beginning of a market inversion.
• FAIR VALUE GAPS: It highlights all the inefficiencies of market moves, which can be used as retracement or price return areas. Here, they can be adjusted based on how effective they are adjusting the volume threshold. Bulls and bears FVG are defined in different colors. More effective FVG are plotted in less transparent colors, and you will find three levels of effectiveness.
Both OB and FVG will change color once the price retraces on them, and they will be removed when they are invalidated.
Please note that this indicator is for educational purposes only and should not be used for trading without further testing and analysis.
ICT - GAPs and Volume Imbalance
GAPs
Gaps are areas on chart where the price have moved sharply up or down, with no trading in between. Gaps often fill, but they don't have to.
Volume Imbalance
Volume imbalance - determined using 2 candles
Bullish Volume Imbalance - area between the close of 1st candle and the open of 2nd candle
Bearish Volume Imbalance - area between the close of 1st candle and the open of 2nd candle
How to use the indicator:-
When you find imbalance in volume or a GAP in the chart, you may expect price to rebalance it before continuation.
Importantly, GAPs/Imbalances do not always fill. Traders should never assume that a gap/imbalance will fill without understanding the reasons for the gap and monitoring trading activity around the gap.
Pair it with your current bias for better results.

Fractals & SweepThe Fractals & Sweep indicator is designed to identify key market structure points (fractals) and detect potential liquidity sweeps around those areas. It visually highlights both Bill Williams fractals and regular fractals, and alerts the user when the market sweeps liquidity above or below the most recent fractal levels.
Fractal Recognition:
Detects both bullish (low) and bearish (high) fractals on the price chart.
Users can choose between:
Bill Williams fractal logic (default), or
Regular fractal logic (when the “Filter Bill Williams Fractals” option is enabled).
Fractals are plotted directly on the chart as red downward triangles for highs and green upward triangles for lows.
Fractal Tracking:
The indicator stores the most recent high and low fractal levels to serve as reference points for potential sweep detection.
Sweep Detection:
A bearish sweep is triggered when the price wicks above the last fractal high but closes below it — suggesting a liquidity grab above resistance.
A bullish sweep is triggered when the price wicks below the last fractal low but closes above it — suggesting a liquidity grab below support.
When a sweep occurs, the indicator draws a horizontal line from the previous fractal point to the current bar.
Alert System:
Custom alerts notify the trader when a bearish sweep or bullish sweep occurs, allowing for timely reactions to potential reversals or liquidity traps.
Trend Pivots Profile [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Trend Pivots Profile is a dynamic volume profile tool that builds profiles around pivot points to reveal where liquidity accumulates during trend shifts. When the market is in an uptrend , the indicator generates profiles at low pivots . In a downtrend , it builds them at high pivots . Each profile is constructed using lower timeframe volume data for higher resolution, making it highly precise even in limited space. A colored trendline helps traders instantly recognize the prevailing trend and anticipate which type of profile (bullish or bearish) will form.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Pivot-Driven Profiles : Profiles are only created when a new pivot forms, aligning liquidity analysis with market structure shifts.
Trend-Contextual : Profiles form at low pivots in uptrends and at high pivots in downtrends.
Lower Timeframe Data : Volume and close values are pulled from smaller timeframes to provide detailed, high-resolution profiles inside larger pivot windows.
Adaptive Bin Sizing : Bin size is automatically calculated relative to ATR, ensuring consistent precision across different markets and volatility conditions.
Point of Control (PoC) : The highest-volume level within each profile is marked with a PoC line that extends until the next pivot forms.
Trendline Visualization : A wide, semi-transparent line follows the rolling average of highs and lows, colored blue in uptrends and orange in downtrends.
🔵 FEATURES
Pivot Length Control : Adjust how far back the script looks to detect pivots (e.g., length 5 → profiles cover 10 bars after pivot).
Pivot Profile toggle :
On → draw the filled pivot profile + PoC + pivot label.
Off → hide profiles; show only PoC level (clean S/R mode).
Trend Length Filter : Smooths trendline detection to ensure reliable up/down bias.
Precise Volume Distribution : Volume is aggregated into bins, creating a smooth volume curve around the pivot range.
PoC Extension : Automatically extends the most active price level until a new pivot is confirmed.
Profile Visualization : Profiles appear as filled shapes anchored at the pivot candle, colored based on trend.
Trendline Overlay : Thick, semi-transparent trendline provides visual guidance on directional bias.
Automatic Cleanup : Old profiles are deleted once they exceed the chart’s capacity (default 25 stored profiles).
🔵 HOW TO USE
Spotting Trend Liquidity : In an uptrend, monitor profiles at low pivots to see where buyers concentrated. In downtrends, use high-pivot profiles to spot sell-side pressure.
Watch the PoC : The PoC line highlights the strongest traded level of the pivot structure—expect reactions when price retests it.
Anticipate Trend Continuation/Reversal : Use the trendline (blue = bullish, orange = bearish) together with pivot profiles to forecast directional momentum.
Combine with HTF Context : Overlay with higher timeframe structure (order blocks, liquidity zones, or FVGs) for confluence.
Fine-Tune with Inputs : Adjust Pivot Length for sensitivity and Trend Length for smoother or faster trend shifts.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Trend Pivots Profile blends pivot-based structure with precise volume profiling. By dynamically plotting profiles on pivots aligned with the prevailing trend, highlighting PoCs, and overlaying a directional trendline, it equips traders with a clear view of liquidity clusters and directional momentum—ideal for anticipating reactions, pullbacks, or breakouts.
Project Pegasus RevenantDescription
Project Pegasus Revenant is a reversal and liquidity-trap detection system combining a configurable fractal reversal engine with the SweepTrigger liquidity finder. It highlights potential structural turning points and stop-hunt scenarios directly on the chart.
What’s unique
Fractal Reversal Engine: Adjustable strictness (1 = loose, 5 = strict) to fit different market conditions.
Signal Filtering: Minimum bar spacing to avoid clustering of false or repeated signals.
SweepTrigger Add-on: Detects liquidity sweeps with wick-based rejection logic, auto-doji detection, and range-strength confirmation.
Dual Signal Output: Circle markers for pure fractal reversals, triangles for sweep-based liquidity traps.
Adaptive Filters: Customizable thresholds for body size, candle range, and sweep strength.
How it works (technical)
Fractals: A reversal fractal is confirmed when the high/low at position n is surrounded by lower/higher highs/lows across a configurable frontier.
Signal confirmation: Once price trades back through the fractal level within a limited number of bars, a potential reversal is triggered.
Bar filter: Signals require a minimum distance in bars to prevent noise.
SweepTrigger logic:
Wick comparison (upper vs lower) determines rejection direction.
Doji and low-body candles are auto-filtered.
Range check ensures the current candle exceeds a configurable multiple of the average range.
Visuals:
Green/Red circles = fractal reversals.
Cyan/Purple triangles = liquidity sweep triggers.
How to use
Watch fractal signals to anticipate structural reversal points.
Combine SweepTrigger signals with liquidity highs/lows for identifying stop hunts and fakeouts.
Use as standalone reversal tool or as confirmation within a broader system (e.g., order blocks, volume profile, or market structure).
Key settings
Reversal Mode: 1–5 (controls strictness of fractals).
SweepTrigger: On/off toggle, lookback window, body-size filter, range strength multiplier.
Visuals: Shapes, sizes, and color-coded signals for clear separation between fractal and sweep triggers.
Notes & limitations
Works on all timeframes.
Signals are reactive (based on confirmed bars), not predictive — no lookahead logic.
Too strict settings may reduce signal frequency; too loose may increase noise.
