ICTProTools | ICT Insight - Time & Price Zones🚀 INTRODUCTION
The Time and Price Zones indicator builds upon the foundational concepts of ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts (SMC). These methodologies analyze the behavior of institutional traders (known as "smart money") by focusing on liquidity, key price levels, and market timing.
Liquidity refers to areas with high concentrations of pending orders (stops, take-profits, entries) in the market. Large institutions efficiently need to execute their massive orders without causing excessive slippage. To achieve this, they strategically create and exploit liquidity pools by driving the price toward areas where retail traders cluster their positions.
Then, through "liquidity grabs" or "stop hunts,” institutions accumulate or distribute positions at optimal prices . This strategy allows them to fill large orders with minimal market impact, typically clearing out retail traders' positions before the price reverses.
This indicator helps traders apply these principles by merging time-based and price-based analysis tools for better market understanding. By combining high-impact sessions like Kill Zones with pivotal price markers such as Previous Highs and Lows, traders can see where institutional activity intersects with liquidity pools, improving their decision-making.
This powerful combination allows users to monitor market dynamics in real time, helping them spot sentiment shifts and identify crucial turning points more effectively.
💎 FEATURES
Kill Zones
Kill Zones are critical periods of the trading day characterized by heightened institutional activity, resulting in increased liquidity and significant price movements. By recognizing these zones, you can strategically focus your efforts on the most advantageous moments for trading.
The Asian Session , which runs from 5 PM to 1 AM New York time, serves as an essential liquidity provider before the onset of more volatile trading periods. This session is intricately linked to the Smart Money Tool (SMT - See below), as the highs and lows established during this period provide foundational liquidity levels. You can set alerts when these levels are breached , allowing you to stay informed without constant chart monitoring and make timely trading decisions.
Transitioning into the London Kill Zone from 2 to 5 AM New York time marks the beginning of the European session, often associated with increased volatility. Following this, the New York Kill Zone , occurring from 7 to 10 AM , sees significant overlap between the London and New York sessions, where liquidity flows intensify and frequently correlate with notable price reversals. Finally, the London Close from 10 to 12 PM signifies the end of the European session, often ending the day with a retracement in the daily range.
Thanks to the timezone you can select relative to a region, Kill Zones will automatically adapt to time changes throughout the year and between different brokers , ensuring accurate Kill Zone timings without manual adjustments.
Incorporating our advanced Kill Zones indicator into your trading strategy gives you unparalleled insights and enhanced functionality. With integrated alerts for breaches of key levels, you can stay informed and ready to act without the need for constant chart monitoring, allowing you to focus on executing your trading strategies effectively.
We can see on this chart the identified Kill Zones during the trading day on EURUSD , including the Asian Session in gray, which tends to consolidate slightly (creating liquidity), the London Kill Zone in orange, which tends to move fast, often taking Asian quickly, the New York Kill Zone in green, with always a lot of movements, and the London Close in blue, seeming rather to retrace.
The midline indicates the 50% mark of the session, serving as a reference point for potential price reactions. Additionally, the highs and lows established during the Asian Session are linked to the Smart Money Tool (SMT) and can trigger alerts when breached. Here, you could have received an alert when Asian Low (marked AL) and Asian High (marked AH) were swept.
Previous & Open Levels
Previous and Open levels are key elements in ICT methodology, showing important price points from major timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly). These levels (Previous High, Low, Open, and their separators) help traders understand price dynamics and anticipate market shifts.
The Previous levels connect directly to the Smart Money Tool (SMT - See below) as they provide foundational liquidity levels. In ICT methodology, previous are levels where many traders place their Stop Loss, thus creating liquidity. This helps you understand potential market reactions and whether prices will likely continue their trend or reverse.
You’ll be instantly notified whenever the price interacts with any of these Previous levels. This means you can stay informed about critical market movements without the need to monitor your charts constantly.
The indicator also displays Opening prices and includes separators for daily, weekly, and monthly levels, offering a clear market overview.
Open levels can act as simplified indicators of Premium and Discount Zones. To be above the opening price can be considered as the Premium Zone , where the market offers higher prices, typically suitable for selling opportunities. Conversely, to be below this price can be considered as the Discount Zone , where prices are relatively lower, offering potential buying opportunities.
These visual elements help you identify crucial market zones that reflect both past price action and current market dynamics.
Our indicator offers you the exclusive ability to integrate the True Day Range, as described by ICT. Based on institutional logic, this concept defines the trading day starting at 00:00 New York time. You can adapt this flexible feature to match your trading style and analysis needs.
By incorporating our advanced Previous levels indicator into your trading arsenal, you gain powerful insights and enhanced functionality.
The chart above displays key Previous and open levels on EURUSD , including the Month, Week, and Day lines, along with separators for enhanced clarity. All levels are based on the True Day Range Mode. The notes indicate significant price points, highlighting how the price interacts with these important levels, which helps us to understand it…
We can start with the biggest liquidity, the Previous Month. In this example, we can see the PMH, and the price seems to have used this level as a reversal point. The PM levels are indeed significant liquidity zones. We can observe the creation of wicks that interact with this level, signaling a liquidity grab.
Following this, the price drops quickly before rebounding, creating a liquidity range, that will probably be liquidated then… This is why it rises again to form what is now the PDH (Previous Day High), using it as liquidity (inducement) while using the PWH (Previous Week High) as a rebound level. The PWH is indeed a High Resistance (HR) area since there is only a few liquidity at this point thanks to the liquidity grab. The price has no reason to move higher.
Looking ahead, we can forecast that the price may continue its decline, potentially targeting lower liquidity levels. There is likely additional liquidity beneath the current range, particularly near the PDL (Previous Day Low) and PWL (Previous Week Low).
Additionally, we can note that at this point, the price was above the D.O.P (Daily Open) and W.O.P (Weekly Open), areas where selling would be more favorable. The price reacts significantly around these levels, creating large wicks, demonstrating their importance.
SMT Dashboard (Smart Money Tool)
The Smart Money Tool (SMT) is a powerful concept within the ICT methodology that enables you to compare various assets based on liquidity uptake from significant price levels.
By utilizing the SMT, you can analyze any asset , whether it’s a currency pair, stock, cryptocurrency, or other financial instruments. The dashboard helps you identify the strongest and weakest assets by analyzing their interactions with critical liquidity levels and identifying divergences , including those related to the Previous Month, Previous Week, Previous Day, and Asian Session Highs and Lows. By doing so, he identifies the most bullish symbol. It will therefore tend to rise more easily, or at least fall less, than the other one.
The SMT includes alert functionality that notifies you whenever a new SMT is created or has changed , allowing you to stay informed about which asset is currently the strongest. This means you can react promptly to market changes without constantly monitoring your charts.
Additionally, since the SMT relies on the Previous levels, it is influenced by the selected mode, whether based on traditional Previous levels or the True Day Range . This flexibility ensures that you are using the most relevant information available for your trading decisions. Asian High and Asian Low levels are also calculated according to the schedules configured in the Kill Zones section.
In summary, the Smart Money Tool displays the strongest and weakest assets based on liquidity uptake, providing you with clear information on which asset to prioritize, so you can maximize your potential profits. By incorporating this concept into your approach, you align your decisions with prevailing market dynamics, offering you unparalleled insights and features tailored to enhance your trading strategy.
This chart displays the Smart Money Tool (SMT) dashboard on the GBPUSD symbol, which compares the liquidity uptake for EURUSD and GBPUSD pairs. The indicator shows that both Previous Month's and Week's High and Low were taken for both pairs. However, the Asian High (AH) has been breached on GBPUSD but not on EURUSD, while the Asian Low (AL) has been taken by EURUSD. As a result, GBPUSD is identified as the stronger asset, indicating that traders should focus on buying opportunities with GBPUSD rather than EURUSD. This analysis helps traders prioritize the best symbol for their strategies based on the most relevant liquidity divergences.

[AWC] Vector -AYNETThis Pine Script code is a custom indicator designed for TradingView. Its purpose is to visualize the opening and closing prices of a specific timeframe (e.g., weekly, daily, or monthly) by drawing lines between these price points whenever a new bar forms in the specified timeframe. Below is a detailed explanation from a scientific perspective:
1. Input Parameters
The code includes user-defined inputs to customize its functionality:
tf1: This input defines the timeframe (e.g., 'W' for weekly, 'D' for daily). It determines the periodicity for analyzing price data.
icol: This input specifies the color of the lines drawn on the chart. Users can select from predefined options such as black, red, or blue.
2. Color Assignment
A switch statement maps the user’s color selection (icol) to the corresponding color object in Pine Script. This mapping ensures that the drawn lines adhere to the user's preference.
3. New Bar Detection
The script uses the ta.change(time(tf1)) function to determine when a new bar forms in the specified timeframe (tf1):
ta.change checks if the timestamp of the current bar differs from the previous one within the selected timeframe.
If the value changes, it indicates that a new bar has formed, and further calculations are triggered.
4. Data Request
The script employs request.security to fetch price data from the specified timeframe:
o1: Retrieves the opening price of the previous bar.
c1: Calculates the average price (high, low, close) of the previous bar using the hlc3 formula.
These values represent the key price levels for visualizing the line.
5. Line Drawing
When a new bar is detected:
The script uses line.new to create a line connecting the previous bar's opening price (o1) and the closing price (c1).
The line’s properties are defined as follows:
x1, y1: The starting point corresponds to the opening price at the previous bar index.
x2, y2: The endpoint corresponds to the closing price at the current bar index.
color: Uses the user-defined color (col).
style: The line style is set to line.style_arrow_right.
Additionally, the lines are stored in an array (lines) for later reference, enabling potential modifications or deletions.
6. Visual Outcome
The script visually represents price movements over the specified timeframe:
Each line connects the opening and closing price of a completed bar in the given timeframe.
The lines are drawn dynamically, updating whenever a new bar forms.
Scientific Context
This script applies concepts of time series analysis and visualization in financial data:
Time Segmentation: By isolating specific timeframes (e.g., weekly), the script provides a focused analysis of price behavior.
Price Dynamics: Connecting opening and closing prices highlights key price transitions within each period.
User Customization: The inclusion of inputs allows for adaptable use, accommodating different analytical preferences.
Applications
Trend Analysis: Identifies how price evolves between opening and closing levels across periods.
Market Behavior Comparison: Facilitates the observation of patterns or anomalies in price transitions over time.

Customizable Multi-Timeframe Doji with Ray and Editable LabelScript Overview
Script Name: Customizable Multi-Timeframe Doji Candle Levels with Ray and Editable Label
Purpose: This script helps traders identify significant price levels based on high timeframe Doji candles, allowing them to visualize key areas of support, resistance, entry, and exit. By plotting real-time Doji levels from higher timeframes directly on the current chart, traders can easily spot areas where market indecision or potential trend reversals have previously occurred, making these levels highly relevant for future price action.
How the Script Works
This script detects Doji candles on a selected higher timeframe (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly) and plots a ray at the Doji’s closing level on the current chart. The Doji candle formation, characterized by an open and close that are very close or equal, is often an indicator of market indecision. By identifying these Doji levels from high timeframes, the script provides traders with insight into where strong support and resistance zones may form.
The script continuously monitors and updates the Doji level based on the selected timeframe, ensuring that only the latest detected Doji candle is displayed on the chart, helping traders avoid clutter and focus on the most recent data.
Core Components and Calculations
1 Doji Detection Logic:
-The script calculates the Doji candle formation based on a small body percentage (defined by the C_DojiBodyPercent parameter) and relative symmetry in upper and lower shadows (defined by C_ShadowPercent and C_ShadowEqualsPercent).
-A Doji is considered valid when the open and close prices are nearly equal, and the shadows are symmetric within the defined parameters, indicating indecision.
2 Multi-Timeframe Data Retrieval:
-Using the request.security() function, the script fetches open, high, low, and close prices from the specified higher timeframe. It applies Doji detection logic to this higher timeframe data.
-barmerge.lookahead_on and barmerge.gaps_on ensure real-time updates, so the Doji level is immediately reflected on the chart when detected.
3 Ray and Label Plotting:
-When a Doji candle is detected on the selected timeframe, the script plots a ray at the Doji's close price, extending forward on the chart.
-Customizable options for the ray, including color, width, and style (solid, dotted, or dashed), help traders visually differentiate the Doji levels from other chart elements.
-An editable label can be positioned alongside the ray to denote the Doji level, with customizable text, color, background, and size to provide additional context.
4 Automatic Line and Label Management:
-The script dynamically deletes any previous ray and label when a new Doji is detected. This approach minimizes chart clutter and ensures that only the most recent Doji level from the higher timeframe is displayed.
Customization Options
1 Timeframe Selection:
Users can choose any timeframe (e.g., hourly, daily, weekly, monthly) to display Doji levels based on their specific trading strategy.
2 Ray and Label Appearance:
Ray: Customize color, width, and line style (solid, dotted, dashed) for better visibility and integration with the chart’s theme.
Label: Customize the label text, background color, text color, text size, and position (above, below, left, or right of the ray) for a personalized view.
How to Use This Script
1 Select the Target Timeframe for Doji Detection: Choose a high timeframe (such as daily or weekly) to view Doji-based support/resistance levels.
2 Set Custom Ray and Label Parameters : Adjust the visual aspects of the ray and label to align with your chart setup and make the Doji level stand out.
3 Interpretation of Doji Levels: Use the plotted Doji levels as potential support or resistance zones. Since Doji candles reflect market indecision, they often precede significant price reversals or strong continuation moves. By analyzing these levels, traders can:
- Identify key support/resistance zones based on historical market indecision.
- Set entry and exit levels around these zones to capitalize on potential reversals or
continuations.
-Spot confluence areas where the Doji level aligns with other indicators or technical patterns.
Recommended Chart Setup
For optimal clarity, use this script on a clean chart, free from overlapping indicators. This script is designed to work independently, so avoid layering multiple support/resistance scripts unless essential to avoid clutter. A clean chart helps ensure that Doji levels are readily visible, enabling a clear focus on significant levels relevant to your trading strategy.

- Weekly VWAP (Green Line): Resets weekly, offering a medium-term perspective.
- Monthly VWAP (Red Line): Resets monthly, giving a longer-term view of price action relative to volume.
## How It Works
The indicator calculates the VWAP for each time frame separately, using the specified price source (default is HLC3). It then plots these values on your chart, allowing you to see how the current price compares to the volume-weighted average across different time periods.
## Use Cases
- Multi-timeframe Analysis: Compare short-term price movements against longer-term trends.
- Support and Resistance: VWAP lines often act as dynamic support/resistance levels.
- Mean Reversion: Identify potential overbought or oversold conditions when price deviates significantly from VWAP.
- Trend Confirmation: Use multiple VWAP lines to confirm trend strength and potential reversals.
## Customization
Users can customize the indicator by changing the price source and offset in the settings. The color and thickness of each VWAP line can also be adjusted in the code for personal preference.
## Note
This indicator is most effective on intraday charts but can provide valuable insights on any time frame. Remember that VWAP is typically most relevant for institutional traders on a session-by-session basis.

ICT NWOG/NDOG Gaps [TradingFinder] New Opening Gaps🔵 Introduction
🟣 Understanding ICT Opening Gaps
In the realm of technical analysis, mastering the art of recognizing market behavior and pinpointing key price levels is vital for making sound trading decisions. Among the array of tools available, the concept of opening gaps stands out for its ability to provide crucial insights.
The ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology offers a distinctive approach to understanding the importance of New Day Opening Gaps (NDOG), New Week Opening Gaps (NWOG), and New Monthly Opening Gaps (NMOG).
These gaps, representing the price differences between the close of a previous period and the open of the next, serve as key reference points that can greatly impact price movements.
The ICT trading approach highlights these gaps as potential zones of support and resistance. Prices often respond to these areas, either bouncing off or passing through and then retesting them. Within these gaps, significant levels such as the high and low are particularly important.
Additionally, the Event Horizon PD Array (EHPDA) concept, which is an intermediate level calculated from the average of neighboring NWOGs or NDOGs, adds another layer to this analysis.
This guide delves into ICT's New Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Opening Ranges, showing how these gaps can be effectively utilized in trading. By grasping the nuances of these gaps, traders can better forecast market behavior, identify key support and resistance levels, and refine their trading strategies.
🟣 The Gaps
1. New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) : The NWOG is the price gap between Friday's closing price and Sunday's opening price. This gap is particularly crucial for traders who monitor weekly trends. Depending on the direction of the gap, the NWOG often serves as a pivotal support or resistance level.
2. New Day Opening Gap (NDOG) : The NDOG signifies the price difference between the closing price of the previous day and the opening price of the current day. Much like the NWOG, the NDOG is a key reference point for intraday traders.
Prices typically react to these levels, either reversing or continuing through the gap after a retest. NDOGs are instrumental in identifying short-term support and resistance levels, aiding traders in making decisions based on daily price movements.
3. New Monthly Opening Gap (NMOG) : The NMOG represents the gap between the closing price of the previous month and the opening price of the current month.
This gap is especially valuable for traders focusing on long-term trends and macroeconomic factors. As with NWOGs and NDOGs, the NMOG can act as a significant support or resistance level.
🔵 How to Use
Identifying Support and Resistance : Opening gaps often indicate potential zones where prices might reverse or find support/resistance. For example, if a new day opens below the previous day’s close (creating a NDOG), this gap could act as resistance, prompting traders to consider short positions if the price retests this level without breaking through.
Conversely, if the price opens above the previous day’s close, the gap might serve as support, offering a potential entry point for long trades.
Gap Fill Strategy : A popular strategy associated with opening gaps is the "gap fill" approach, where traders anticipate that the price will eventually return to fill the gap.
For instance, if there’s a significant NDOG at market open, a trader might expect the price to retrace back to the previous day’s close, effectively "filling" the gap. This strategy is particularly effective in markets that exhibit mean-reverting behavior.
Combining Gaps with Other Indicators : Traders often enhance their analysis of NDOG, NWOG, and NMOG by integrating other technical indicators. Aligning gap levels with tools such as Fibonacci retracements, moving averages, or existing support and resistance zones can provide additional confirmation for trade entries and exits.
🔵 Setting
Show and Color : You can control the display or non-display of the range as well as the color of the range.
Max Opening Range Update Method : You can control the number of ranges that are updated. If it is "All", all ranges that are not mitigated will be displayed. If "Custom", the ranges will be updated based on the number you specify.
Max Opening Range Update : The number of ranges to update.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT New Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Opening Ranges provide traders with a systematic approach to understanding market dynamics and identifying critical support and resistance levels.
By analyzing these gaps, traders can gain deeper insights into potential price movements, spot high-probability trade setups, and strengthen their overall trading strategy. Whether you are focused on short-term day trading or long-term market trends, incorporating NDOG, NWOG, and NMOG analysis into your trading plan can be a powerful addition to your toolkit.
Oster's Fair Economy (OFE)Overview:
Oster's Fair Economy (OFE) is a powerful tool designed to give traders and investors a comprehensive assessment of the fair value of major stock indices . Unlike conventional indicators that focus solely on technical analysis, OFE emphasizes economic metrics to offer a deeper understanding of the market's intrinsic value. By applying Oster's method (explained below), OFE determines the fundamental fair price of key indices, making it an invaluable tool for top-down analysis and market confirmation. It is particularly useful for swing trading on indices and as a top-down confirmation for individual stock trades.
Important Note:
OFE is designed for use with indices, not individual stocks : Stocks are often driven by their own fundamental factors, such as earnings, revenue, and dividend yields, which may not align with broad economic metrics. While OFE can sometimes provide insights into individual stocks, particularly those highly correlated with broader market trends, it is specifically intended for index analysis.
OFE is optimized for Weekly Candles (W ): OFE is most effective when used with weekly data, as it aligns with the longer-term outlook of economic analyses. While it can be used with smaller timeframes, weekly data is recommended for the most accurate insights.
Innovative Approach to Economic Analysis:
OFE integrates a unique combination of key economic metrics , including:
Gross National Product (GNP)
Consumer Price Index (CPI)
Unemployment Rate (UR)
Interest Rate (e.g., FED)
Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP)
Retail Sales (RS)
Industrial Production (IP)
Balance Of Trade (BOT)
Money Supply M2 (M2)
Consumer Confidence Index (CCI)
These metrics are tailored for 20 different markets : United States (US), Canada (CA), European Union (EU), Germany (DE), United Kingdom (GB), France (FR), Italy (IT), Switzerland (CH), Spain (ES), Australia (AU), New Zealand (NZ), Japan (JP), China (CN), Hong Kong (HK), South Korea (KR), India (IN), Russia (RU), Brazil (BR), Mexico (MX), and Saudi Arabia (SA).
This comprehensive set of data allows traders to gauge the potential for growth, inflation, and overall market conditions . OFE's weighting system reflects the importance of these metrics in determining the fair value of indices according to Oster's methodology .
How OFE Works:
OFE's calculation methodology is designed to provide insights into whether an index is fundamentally overvalued, undervalued, or trading at fair value by comparing its price dynamics with economic data. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how OFE works:
Economic Data Collection : OFE retrieves relevant economic data from the selected region, such as GDP, CPI, and interest rates. If specific market data is unavailable, OFE defaults to the US market as a fallback.
Normalization and Weighting : The collected economic metrics are normalized against historical trends to ensure that the data reflects both current levels and long-term averages. For example, GDP growth rates are normalized based on historical data, allowing for a comparison across different economic periods. Similarly, CPI and unemployment rates are adjusted to account for historical context, ensuring that high inflation or unemployment is appropriately weighed relative to past conditions. However, all other macroeconomic key figures are also processed in the same way.
Relating Economic Metrics to Price Dynamics : OFE calculates specific ratios by comparing the selected index’s price with the normalized economic data. These ratios, such as the GNP ratio, are then analyzed within the context of historical performance. The goal is to establish a relationship between the economic indicators and the index’s historical price behavior. For instance, if the GNP ratio is currently higher than historical norms, it could suggest that the index is overvalued relative to the economy’s actual productivity.
Fair Value Calculation : Based on the derived ratios and their historical correlations with index prices, OFE computes a fair value for the index. This calculation integrates multiple economic indicators, each weighted according to its perceived importance in influencing the index. For example, in a high-growth environment, GDP and industrial production might carry more weight, whereas in a recession, unemployment and interest rates could become more influential. The resulting fair value reflects the index's price adjusted for the current economic environment.
Price Comparison : The calculated fair value is then compared to the current market price of the index. If the market price significantly deviates from the fair value, it suggests that the index is either overvalued or undervalued. For example, if the fair value of the S&P 500 is calculated to be 10% lower than its current market price, OFE would indicate that the index might be overvalued, potentially signaling a market correction. The fair price line basically acts as a kind of magnet that keeps attracting the index price. This is because, in the longer term, the broad market is always guided by the economic health of the country in concerned.
Market Dynamics Consideration : By adjusting the "Strictness" level in OFE, users can control how sensitive the fair value calculation is to economic fundamentals. A higher strictness level would highlight discrepancies between the fair value and the market price more aggressively, suggesting a higher likelihood of market mispricing. Conversely, a lower strictness level allows for greater flexibility, acknowledging that markets can sometimes deviate from fundamental values without immediate correction.
Customizable Parameters for Tailored Analysis:
OFE offers extensive customization options to align with your specific investment strategy. Users can:
Select or deselect economic metrics for inclusion.
Adjust the weighting of each metric to reflect its importance in their analysis.
Fine-tune the strictness of the valuation process (as explained above).
Additionally, users can compare different indices with various macroeconomic data sets . For example, you might select the DAX index and apply US economic data to see how the index would perform if driven by US market fundamentals. This feature enables a highly tailored and region-specific analysis, empowering traders to align OFE with their individual perspectives and market outlooks.
Interpretation:
If the calculated fair price is above the current index value, the index is considered fundamentally undervalued, indicating potential for price increases. Conversely, if the fair price is below the current index value, the index is seen as overvalued, suggesting potential risks or a possible correction. The fair price acts as a gravitational force, pulling the index toward its true economic value over time.
This over- or undervaluation can also serve as an overarching economic confirmation for stock trading . For example, it might be advantageous to buy individual stocks when the broader market is fundamentally undervalued, as the general upward potential of the market could support stock price increases. Conversely, selling or avoiding stocks when the broader market is overvalued could help mitigate potential risks, as the market may be primed for a correction.
Conclusion:
Oster's Fair Economy (OFE) bridges the gap between technical simplicity and the depth of macroeconomic analysis . By integrating complex economic metrics with user-friendly customization, OFE empowers traders and investors to assess the fair valuation of indices confidently .
