Custom V2 KillZone US / FVG / EMAThis indicator is designed for traders looking to analyze liquidity levels, opportunity zones, and the underlying trend across different trading sessions. Inspired by the ICT methodology, this tool combines analysis of Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), session management, and Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection to provide a structured and disciplined approach to trading effectively.
Indicator Features
Identifying the Underlying Trend with Two EMAs
The indicator uses two EMAs on different, customizable timeframes to define the underlying trend:
EMA1 (default set to a daily timeframe): Represents the primary underlying trend.
EMA2 (default set to a 4-hour timeframe): Helps identify secondary corrections or impulses within the main trend.
These two EMAs allow traders to stay aligned with the market trend by prioritizing trades in the direction of the moving averages. For example, if prices are above both EMAs, the trend is bullish, and long trades are favored.
Analysis of Market Sessions
The indicator divides the day into key trading sessions:
Asian Session
London Session
US Pre-Open Session
Liquidity Kill Session
US Kill Zone Session
Each session is represented by high and low zones as well as mid-lines, allowing traders to visualize liquidity levels reached during these periods. Tracking the price levels in different sessions helps determine whether liquidity levels have been "swept" (taken) or not, which is essential for ICT methodology.
Liquidity Signal ("OK" or "STOP")
A specific signal appears at the end of the "Liquidity Kill" session (just before the "US Kill Zone" session):
"OK" Signal: Indicates that liquidity conditions are favorable for trading the "US Kill Zone" session. This means that liquidity levels have been swept in previous sessions (Asian, London, US Pre-Open), and the market is ready for an opportunity.
"STOP" Signal: Indicates that it is not favorable to trade the "US Kill Zone" session, as certain liquidity conditions have not been met.
The "OK" or "STOP" signal is based on an analysis of the high and low levels from previous sessions, allowing traders to ensure that significant liquidity zones have been reached before considering positions in the "Kill Zone".
Detection of Fair Value Gaps (FVG) in the US Kill Zone Session
When an "OK" signal is displayed, the indicator identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVG) during the "US Kill Zone" session. These FVGs are areas where price may return to fill an "imbalance" in the market, making them potential entry points.
Bullish FVG: Detected when there is a bullish imbalance, providing a buying opportunity if conditions align with the underlying trend.
Bearish FVG: Detected when there is a bearish imbalance, providing a selling opportunity in the trend direction.
FVG detection aligns with the ICT Silver Bullet methodology, where these imbalance zones serve as probable entry points during the "US Kill Zone".
How to Use This Indicator
Check the Underlying Trend
Before trading, observe the two EMAs (daily and 4-hour) to understand the general market trend. Trades will be prioritized in the direction indicated by these EMAs.
Monitor Liquidity Signals After the Asian, London, and US Pre-Open Sessions
The high and low levels of each session help determine if liquidity has already been swept in these areas. At the end of the "Liquidity Kill" session, an "OK" or "STOP" label will appear:
"OK" means you can look for trading opportunities in the "US Kill Zone" session.
"STOP" means it is preferable not to take trades in the "US Kill Zone" session.
Look for Opportunities in the US Kill Zone if the Signal is "OK"
When the "OK" label is present, focus on the "US Kill Zone" session. Use the Fair Value Gaps (FVG) as potential entry points for trades based on the ICT methodology. The identified FVGs will appear as colored boxes (bullish or bearish) during this session.
Use ICT Methodology to Manage Your Trades
Follow the FVGs as potential reversal zones in the direction of the trend, and manage your positions according to your personal strategy and the rules of the ICT Silver Bullet method.
Customizable Settings
The indicator includes several customization options to suit the trader's preferences:
EMA: Length, source (close, open, etc.), and timeframe.

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

📈 Structure
What Is IDM?
IDM, or the Institutional Distribution Model, is an advanced concept within SMC that focuses on how institutional players distribute their positions in the market. By analyzing IDM, traders can better anticipate price movements and potential turning points, thereby gaining a meaningful edge in their trading.
In our structure concept, IDM can form under specific conditions. The market does not always provide a high-liquidity point to work with, so we’ve adopted a flexible approach. We generate IDM when a certain type of liquidity appears during the impulse and BOS break, allowing for a potential future liquidity sweep.
Below, I will provide an example that illustrates when IDM forms as a liquidity magnet within the structure - and when it does not.
As shown in the example above, we focus on the initial impulse after the BOS. If liquidity forms during this impulse - liquidity that needs to be taken out during the structural move - we mark an IDM level as a price magnet. However, if this liquidity does not appear, we do not create an IDM. In that case, the same point might serve as an FVG or play a different role, depending on your trading approach.
This concept makes the structure more flexible and better able to respond immediately to market movements and key structural points.
Above is an example on the chart illustrating what the structure looks like both with and without IDM. As you can see, when the structural move includes pullbacks and consolidation, there is an opportunity to form an IDM as a price magnet. However, if the impulses are strong and lack pullbacks, FVG becomes the only magnet in that move. Depending on the chart, our indicator adapts to the current market conditions and highlights potential liquidity collection points.
📊 Swing and Minor Structure
In the new version of the indicator, the minor structure and the swing structure differ from each other.
Swing structure - In this structure, as mentioned earlier, the IDM concept remains a price magnet and is formed at certain points on the chart if the conditions allow. If these points do not appear, IDM might not form at all.
Minor structure - Here, we have completely removed IDM and only kept BOS and CHoCH for structure formation. We found that for a minor structure, this approach allows faster reactions to trend changes, depending on market movements.
By making these adjustments, we have resolved the main issue of the advanced structure, which was the large distance between BOS and CHoCH that sometimes resulted in a month-long consolidation between these levels. In this version, those problems no longer occur.
If, for some reason, your settings result in a larger swing structure, you can still work with the minor structure using the same POI as in the swing structure. OrderBlock and FVG remain the primary drivers of order flow.
Shown above is a screenshot of the main structure settings you can adjust. These settings are highly flexible and can be tailored to fit a wide range of trading preferences.
⚖️ FVG Concept
A new feature of our indicator is the FVG concept. We automatically detect three types of FVG at the moment, which will be explained below.
FVG - the standard Fair Value Gap
Double FVG - a double FVG, also referred to as BPR (Balanced Price Range)
Implied Imbalance - a type of imbalance that arises from buyer or seller demand
Below, we will look at examples of the FVG types we currently identify.
All price inefficiencies work in real time, immediately appearing on the chart and allowing traders to quickly respond to FVG reactions.
We have also enhanced this concept by displaying FVG reactions on the chart. If an FVG triggers a reaction and the price responds to that range, we highlight it on the chart, so you can recognize the reaction and make timely trading decisions. A screenshot below shows how this looks in practice.
Below is a screenshot illustrating the main settings of this concept, along with detailed descriptions.
📦 OrderBlock Concept
OrderBlocks provide an effective way to identify areas of interest and make informed decisions. We have dedicated significant effort to refining this section’s functionality and have achieved strong results in doing so.
Order Block Types
Advanced OrderBlock – A specialized type of order block generated by our internal algorithm. This can help traders aim for tighter entries and potentially more favorable risk-reward ratios within a narrow price range.
OrderBlock – The classic type, formed at the highs or lows of a structure when a BOS or CHoCH occurs. It can still be an effective entry method but typically spans a wider price range.
Extremum Candle – Based on liquidity grabs. The candle creating this order block must collect liquidity before making an impulsive move that breaks the BOS or CHoCH.
BTS / STB (Buy To Sell / Sell To Buy) – This concept may appear when market makers manipulate price to buy or sell an asset. It often covers a larger price range because it relies on a brief impulsive move to form.
Each type of order block has its own strengths and weaknesses. We provide traders with the flexibility to choose which types suit their trading style and preferences.
Above is an example of how you can apply OrderFlow alongside our structure and orderblocks, which can produce solid results when combined with the Smart Money concept.
In this demonstration, we have highlighted the Advanced Orderblock as an illustration.
Above is a screenshot of all the settings related to this section. They can be customized to suit your specific needs, ensuring you only see what is genuinely relevant on your chart.
📏 Previous Highs and Lows
You can select four levels to display on the chart as some of the most liquid zones:
Daily Highs and Lows
Weekly Highs and Lows
Monthly Highs and Lows
Quarterly Highs and Lows
This feature helps you identify important levels on lower timeframes and focus on these zones for potential trading opportunities. Below is an example of how it appears on the chart.
Below, you can see the settings available in this section.
📐 Fibonacci Levels
Likewise, a new section in our indicator is Fibonacci Levels, a well-known tool recognized as a reliable source of important levels on the chart. We have added this functionality with the option to choose how you want to generate these levels and which specific levels you want to display.
You can plot Fibonacci levels based on the Swing structure, Minor structure, previous or current day, month, and more. In total, there are 10 different options for constructing the Fibonacci grid.
Above, you can see an example of how it appears on the chart, and below you will find the settings available in this section.
🈹 Premium and Discount
Another useful feature for all traders is the Premium and Discount zones based on structure. This makes it easy to identify areas of interest—whether in a discount or premium zone, or in an equilibrium area.
Below, you can also see the settings available in this section.
✅ Additional Function
We have also separated a few functions into their own section:
Color Candles – Colors the candles according to the current trend.
Market Structure ZigZag – Visually highlights the zigzag used to form the structure.
Key Point Labels – Displays the points on the chart from which the structure is built.
Equal Highs & Lows – Identifies equal highs and lows as areas of potential liquidity for larger market players, as price often aims to sweep these zones.
Below are a few screenshots showing how these features appear on the chart.
Color Candles
Market Structure ZigZag and Key Point Labels
Equal Highs & Lows
Below, you can see a screenshot displaying all the settings available in this section.
🎨 General Styling
We have devoted considerable effort to providing flexible customization for each element on the chart, so you can design the exact look you want. That’s why we created an additional section where you can adjust any element’s size, style, and more.
Combined with extensive color and transparency options, this feature provides a flexible appearance for the indicator on any chart.
Below, you can see the settings available in this section
🔔 Alert Customization
You can configure over 16 types of reactions to various events on the chart. Additionally, you can set up alerts to trigger at specific fill levels and explore numerous other alert options, as shown in the screenshot below.
🟠 Usage Examples
We have also prepared several examples of how to use the indicator. These are standard entry models taken from the classic Smart Money concept.
First Example
In the screenshot above, the market displays a downward structure until a manipulation occurs, followed by a CHoCH break. This is a standard entry model featuring an entry at the nearest FVG, a stop-loss placed beyond the manipulation, and a target at the nearest liquidity zone—whether session-based or, as in our case, a gap (one of the FVG types) that price commonly revisits.
This is considered a more aggressive entry because we only waited for a single confirmation of the trend change—the CHoCH break—and then entered immediately afterward. While the WinRate might be lower in such trades, the Risk-Reward ratio is typically very high if you correctly identify the manipulation.
Second Example
This approach is more conservative and less risky, typically offering a higher WinRate but with a lower Risk-Reward ratio.
Here, we use the 4H FVG as our decision point (POI). With the indicator, we plot the 4-hour FVG on our current chart without needing to switch back and forth between timeframes.
Once price reaches our POI, we look for an entry model that includes three confirmations:
First Confirmation – A CHoCH break.
Second Confirmation – A manipulation.
Third Confirmation – A second BOS break.
We wait for all these confirmations before entering the trade, ensuring our stop-loss is well-protected since the remaining liquidity has been swept and the 4-hour FVG has been fully filled.
Our target is the full fill of a higher timeframe FVG or other high-liquidity levels below.
In a conservative setup, it is crucial to allow a complete OrderFlow to develop, including manipulations and clear breaks of lower levels. This approach helps protect the trade and often results in a higher WinRate.
🟠 Disclaimer
Past performance is not indicative of future results. To trade successfully, it is crucial to have a thorough understanding of the market context and the specific situation at hand. Always conduct your own research and analysis before making any trading decisions.

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
1. Order Blocks
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart.
The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenario, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.
2. Breaker Blocks
Breaker blocks form when an order block fails, or "breaks". It is often associated with market going in the opposite direction of the broken order block, and they can be spotted by following order blocks and finding the point they get broken, i.e. price goes below a bullish order block.
The volume of a breaker block is simply the total volume of the bar that the original order block is broken. Often the higher the breaking bar's volume, the stronger the breaker block is.
The strength of Order & Breaker Blocks are calculated by the size of the block to the Average True Range (ATR) of the chart.
3. Fair Value Gaps
Fair value gaps often occur when there is an imbalance in the market, and can be spotted with a specific formation on the chart.
The volume when the FVG occurs plays an important role when determining the strength of it, so we've placed two bars on the FVG zone, indicating the high & low volumes of the FVG. The high volume is the total volume of the last two bars on a bullish FVG, while the low volume is - of the FVG. For a bearish FVG, the total volume of the last two bars is the low volume. The indicator can also detect FVGs that exist in other timeframes than the current chart.
4. Inversion Fair Value Gaps
A Fair Value Gap generally occur when there is an imbalance in the market. They can be detected by specific formations within the chart. An Inverse Fair Value Gap is when a FVG becomes invalidated, thus reversing the direction of the FVG.
IFVGs get consumed when a Close / Wick enters the IFVG zone. Check this example:
5. Market Structures
Sometimes specific market structures form and break as the market fills buy & sell orders. Formed Change of Character (CHoCH) and Break of Structure (BOS) often mean that market will change direction, and they can be spotted by inspecting low & high pivot points of the chart.
The number of times the chart recently had a BOS is displayed between brackets, Ex : (3)
6. Liquidity Zones
Buyside & Sellside Liquidity zones are where most traders place their take-profits and stop-losses in their long / short positions. They are spotted by using high & low pivot points on the chart.
7. Liquidity Grabs
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a liquidity grab has occurred.
8. Premium & Discount Zones
The premium zone is a zone that is over the fair value of the asset's price, and the discount zone is the opposite. They are formed by the latest high & low pivot points.
If the latest close price is outside the Premium or Discount zone, you will see "Premium ⬆️" or "Discount ⬇️". These mean that the price is currently higher than the premium zone or lower than the discount zone.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This screener offers a comprehensive dashboard for traders, combining multiple analytical elements with customizable settings to aid in decision-making across different tickers and timeframes. We believe that this will help traders spot trading opportunities much easier by providing crucial information in a single dashboard. Our new screener contains of common elements like Order & Breaker Blocks, Fair Value Gaps & IFVGs as well as rather unique elements like Liquidity Grabs . With the use of up to 8 tickers & timeframes , you can easily take a look at the bigger picture of the market. We recommend reading the "How Does It Work" section of the description to get a better understanding about how this indicator is unique to others.

2. Order Blocks
Enabled -> Enables / Disables Order Blocks
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
3. Breaker Blocks
Enabled -> Enables / Disables Breaker Blocks
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Breaker Block Invalidation.
4. Fair Value Gaps
Enabled -> Enables / Disables Fair Value Gaps
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for FVG Zone Invalidation.
Zone Filtering -> With "Average Range" selected, algorithm will find FVG zones in comparison with average range of last bars in the chart. With the "Volume Threshold" option, you may select a Volume Threshold % to spot FVGs with a larger total volume than average.
FVG Detection -> With the "Same Type" option, all 3 bars that formed the FVG should be the same type. (Bullish / Bearish). If the "All" option is selected, bar types may vary between Bullish / Bearish.
Detection Sensitivity -> You may select between Low, Normal or High FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivities resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivities resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
5. Inversion Fair Value Gaps
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for IFVG Zone Invalidation. This setting also switches the type for IFVG consumption.
6. Market Structures
Break Of Structure (BOS) -> If the current structure of the market is broken in a bullish or bearish direction, it will be displayed.

7. Liquidity Zones
Buyside Liquidity -> Enables / Disables Buyside Liquidity
Sellside Liquidity -> Enables / Disables Sellside Liquidity
8. Liquidity Grabs
Pivot Length -> This setting determines the range of the pivots. This means a candle has to have the highest / lowest wick of the previous X bars and the next X bars to become a high / low pivot.
Wick-Body Ratio -> After a pivot has a false breakout, the wick-body ratio of the latest candle is tested. The resulting ratio must be higher than this setting for it to be considered as a liquidity grab.
9. Premium & Discount Zones
Enabled -> Enables / Disables Premium & Discount Zones.

All-Rounded Alerts: The indicator comes with a comprehensive alerts extension in a separate script, allowing you to stay informed of important market movements even when away from your trading platform.
🎯Key Features (in-depth):
The Fast Oscillator within Momentum Concepts™ comprises four components designed to provide insights into short-term momentum dynamics:
🔱Price Volume Swings :
This confirmation component uses our proprietary Price Volume Algorithm to analyze price action and volume to identify buying and selling pressure, aiding traders in spotting short-term swings for potential trading opportunities.
⚜️Price Volume Waves :
This leading component also uses our proprietary Price Volume Algorithm but differs from the Price Volume Swings by capturing dominant wave patterns instead. This indicator breaks down price and volume data into a wave-like plot which enables leading insights into market momentum due to the relatively predicable nature of sine-like waves. Leading components such as this and the Alpha Wave are best used with other confirmation components within the Momentum Concepts™ .
🌊Alpha Wave :
The Alpha Wave is a leading non-volume alternative to the Price Volume Waves . It reflects market momentum by analyzing price action only instead of using volume data, resulting in a normalized wave-like plot similar to that of the Price Volume Waves , offering a leading perspective on potential market momentum shifts. Leading components such as this and the Price Volume Waves are best used with other confirmation components within the Momentum Concepts™ .
🐲Dragon RSI :
The Dragon RSI is a confirmation component that determines market momentum by analyzing the directional movement of the Relative Strength Index (RSI). By doing so, users are able to visually identify the current short term trend of the market as well as identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Reversal Signals :
All the Fast Oscillator components come with reversal signals that are based on the respective components being either oversold or overbought.
Divergences :
All the Fast Oscillator components come with bullish and bearish divergences. Divergences within the Fast Oscillator components of Momentum Concepts ™ offer crucial signals for trend shifts. 🔱 Price Volume Swings and ⚜️ Price Volume Waves detect weakening buying or selling pressure, signalling potential reversals or continuations. 🌊 Alpha Wave and 🐲 Dragon RSI identify divergences between momentum and price, aiding traders in anticipating market movements. Leveraging these divergences enhances analysis, aiding traders in formulating meaningful analysis.
Customizable Signal Processing Methods :
All the Fast Oscillator components come with customizable signal processing methods to identify trends on the Fast Oscillator , they include (but not limited to) methods such as Heiken Ashi, and a vast selection of Moving Averages.
Diminishing Momentum Warning :
All the Fast Oscillator components come with a diminishing momentum warning that represents a reducing momentum on the Fast Oscillator . This can act as a take profit signal or as a precautionary warning that the price is about to change direction soon even though the Fast Oscillator has not detected it yet.
Dynamically Colored Reversal Zones :
Last but not least, the dynamic coloring of the reversal zones for Fast Oscillator can be customised based on either the reversal probability of the Fast Oscillator or based on the overall trend confluence of all the components within the Momentum Concepts™ indicator.
The Momentum Impulse Oscillator in Momentum Concepts™ offers crucial insights into long-term momentum trends, aiding traders in identifying the underlying momentum regime and differentiating between trending and consolidating markets.
Underlying Momentum Bias
By default, the Momentum Impulse Oscillator is set to show the longer term trend of price action, this can be used to set the directional bias for the markets and prevent users from trading against the trend.
Trending/Ranging Detection
The Momentum Impulse Oscillator comes with the option to enable trending thresholds, when the Momentum Impulse Oscillator is beyond these thresholds, it indicates a trending market, when Momentum Impulse Oscillator is within the thresholds, it indicates a consolidating/ranging market.
The Scalper's Momentum within Momentum Concepts™ furnishes traders with nuanced signals ideal for short to medium-term trading strategies. It efficiently displays both the medium-term momentum and any emerging divergences towards the opposing direction.
Medium-Term Momentum
The Scalper's Momentum is designed to fill the analysis gap between the Fast Oscillator and the Momentum Impulse Oscillator . Showing momentum insights over the medium-term.
Momentum Convergence-Divergence
The Scalper's Momentum is also capable of showing momentum convergences and divergences, which can be used as take-profit and/or confirmation signals to other components within Momentum Concepts™ .
The Hidden Liquidity Flow component of Momentum Concepts™ is designed to uncover underlying liquidity dynamics. This feature enables traders to anticipate potential price movements based on changes in liquidity flow, enhancing their ability to make informed trading decisions.
Underlying Liquidity Dynamics
The Hidden Liquidity Flow shows the underlying liquidity flow of the market, a positive liquidity flow indicates that liquidity is entering the market and increasing the probability of bullish price action, the opposite is true for negative liquidity flows.
Excess Liquidity Flow
The Hidden Liquidity Flow also indicates when there is an abnormal amount of liquidity flowing through the market, this can indicate the potential for volatility and explosive price action.
🎯Usage Examples:
Now that we have gone through the components and features of Momentum Concepts™ in detail, we'll walk you through the usage examples and strategies that you can utilise to navigate the markets.
Scalping
Using the Scalper's Momentum and the Fast Oscillator as an example, users can first use the Scalper's Momentum as a directional bias and the Fast Oscillator as a means of timing a more precise entry. Take profits can be based on either the Diminishing Momentum Warnings or the Fast Oscillator flipping signals or the Scalper's Momentum flipping signals.
Buying the Dip/Shorting the Pump
Using the Momentum Impulse Oscillator and the Fast Oscillator as an example, users will need to first determine the underlying trend with the Momentum Impulse Oscillator , after which they can use the Fast Oscillator for entry signals into the trend. Take profits can be based on either the Diminishing Momentum Warnings or the Fast Oscillator flipping signals
Reversal Trading
Using the Momentum Impulse Oscillator on a timeframe roughly 3-4 times greater than the chart's timeframe and the Fast Oscillator as an example, users will need to first ensure that the Momentum Impulse Oscillator signals a ranging market on a higher timeframe, divergence signals from the Fast Oscillator can then be used as entries. Take profits can be based on either the Diminishing Momentum Warnings or the Fast Oscillator flipping signals or the Fast Oscillator reaching the zero line.
(These are just examples for reference, the Momentum Concepts™ offers significantly more possibilities for customisation and fine tuning of your trading strategy.)
🎯Conclusion:
In conclusion, Momentum Concepts™ stands as a versatile and powerful tool for traders seeking to decode the intricacies of market momentum across multiple time horizons. With its comprehensive suite of customizable features, including the Fast Oscillator , Scalper's Momentum , Momentum Impulse Oscillator , and Hidden Liquidity Flow , traders can gain deep insights into market dynamics and make well-informed trading decisions.

IMGPro - V1.0IMG PRO uses nine sequential stages to analyse price action and alert users to potential Trade Setups using various Price Action Concepts as detailed below:
1. Identify Higher Timeframe Market Structure and Points of Interest (HTF-POIs)
2. Calculate position size based on your risk appetite, fees and account leverage and customisable maximum trade risk
3. Verify price is in a premium or discount
4. Determine Lower Timeframe Market Structure Break Type
5. Apply Early Warning Systems if enabled
6. Alert you to risk managed trade setups at enabled HTF-POIs
7. Alert you to unentered trade invalidations
8. Alert you to trade exits based on your set criteria
9. Provide Additional Alerts such as Higher Timeframe SFPs and Market Structure Breaks that act as potential early warnings that a trade setup may be forming
1. HTF POIs Available with IMG PRO:
a. HTF Market Structure Range Highs and Lows
b. HTF Order Blocks
c. HTF Order Blocks & FVG Overlaps
d. HTF Breakers
e. HTF Breakers & FVG Overlaps
f. HTF FVGs
g. Internal Liquidity Levels
These levels are used for Trade Signals based on user settings applied. Details provided in the trade setup section below
a. Higher Timeframe Market Structure Range High and Low through Multiple Timeframe Analysis:
Market Structure can be defined using several techniques. The IMG indicators employ the Close through High/Low technique, which necessitates a candle to close through a structural level to validate a structural break and designate a new range.
Example: H12 Market Structure visualisation on a H12 Chart with annotations:
By selecting a particular Market Structure timeframe in the settings, the indicator immediately illustrates both current and historical market structures for the chosen timeframe across all subordinate timeframes, subject to the limitations of your Tradingview subscription.
Example: H12 Market Structure visualisation on a H1 Chart with annotations:
b. Higher Timeframe Order Blocks
An Order Block represents the last candle of the opposite direction preceding a Market Structure Break. For instance, a bullish Order Block is identified as the final bearish candle leading to a bullish market structure break, and vice versa for bearish Order Blocks.
Example: H12 OB visualisation on a H12 Chart with annotations:
When activated, the indicator will highlight the Higher Timeframe Order Blocks responsible for a Market Structure Break on all subordinate timeframes relative to the chosen Market Structure Timeframe.
Note: if multiple OBs exist, the indicator will display the OB closest to the new range extreme
Example: H12 OB visualisation on a H1 Chart with annotations:
c. HTF Order Blocks & HTF FVG Overlaps
When enabled, the IMG Pro will only display overlaps of Order Blocks and FVGs. These are strong points of interest to look for trade setups
Example of the indicator displaying a Higher Timeframe’s (HTF) OBs + FVGs on a Lower Timeframe (LTF) chart:
The upper chart labelled H12/H12 is the indicator displaying H12 Structure and OB+FVGs on a H12 chart.
The lower chart labelled H12/H1 is the indicator displaying H12 OB+FVGs on a H1 chart:
d. Higher Timeframe Breakers
A Breaker Block is identified as the most recent Order Block that has been breached by price, leading to an opposite Market Structure Break. For example, a bullish Breaker Block is the last bearish Order Block that price has passed through, confirming a bullish structural break, and the inverse is true for bearish Breakers.
Example: H12 Breaker visualisation on a H12 Chart with annotations:
Once enabled, the system will display Higher Timeframe Breaker Blocks after an opposite Market Structure Break is confirmed on all subordinate timeframes.
Example: H12 Breaker visualisation on a H1 Chart with annotations:
e. HTF Breakers & HTF FVG Overlaps
When enabled, the IMG Pro will only display overlaps of Breakers and FVGs. These are strong points of interest to look for trade setups
Example:
The upper chart labelled H12/H12 is the indicator displaying H12 Structure and Breakers+FVGs on a H12 chart
The lower chart labelled H12/H1 is the indicator displaying H12 Breakers+FVGs on a H1 chart
f. Higher Timeframe Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
A Fair Value Gap is a concept used by price action traders to identify market inefficiencies, where buying and selling are not balanced. It appears on a chart as a triple-candle pattern, with a large candle flanked by two others whose highs and lows do not overlap with the large candle, creating a gap. This gap often attracts the price towards it before the market resumes its previous direction.
Example of the indicator displaying a Higher Timeframe’s FVGs on a Lower Timeframe (LTF) chart:
-The upper chart labelled H12/H12 is the indicator displaying H12 Structure and FVGs on a H12 chart.
-The lower chart labelled H12/H1 is the indicator displaying H12 FVGs on a H1 chart
g. HTF Internal Liquidity Levels (FVGs)
A HTF Liquidity Level is a Higher Timeframe three bar Pivot that forms inside an active range.
When enabled, the system will display all UNTESTED HTF pivots formed within an active range. Lines will stop extending once they are either tested or HTF Market Structure Breaks
Example: H12 Liquidity Levels on a H1 Chart:
2. Risk Management and Position Sizing:
a. Automated Position Sizing:
The System will automatically calculate position size based on the account size, max leverage and risk appetite (capital risk per trade) details input in settings. Calculated trade details are included in the Tradingview Alerts as well as interactive labels on the charts.
Details include but are not limited to:
Trade Timeframe
Side: Long/Short
Type: Limit/Market
Position Size in $ and Units
Lot sizes if applicable
Trade Risk %
Take Profit Level
Entry Price
Stoploss Price
b. Maximum Trade Risk:
IMG PRO has the ability to invalidate potential trade entries if it exceeds your maximum Trade Risk threshold. Trade Risk is the % price difference between entry and stoploss.
When an invalid signal is generated, the signal will not be shaded and the interactive label will display the reason for invalidation
In the example below, Max Trade Risk is set to 2% , but the trade signal had a trade risk of 5.11% invalidating the signal with a grey triangle
3. Verify Premium / Discount:
The system can be setup to only display signals that are in the top or bottom n% of the Market Structure Range
A value of 0 (default) will disable the premium/discount system and utilize the entire range for all signal types (bullish and bearish)
EXAMPLES:
A value of 50% will only display bullish signals that have, at minimum, tagged the bottom half of the range and vice versa for bearish signals.
A value of 25% will only display bullish signals that have tagged the bottom quarter of the range and vice versa.
A value of 38.2% will display signals that tag the top and bottom 38.2% of the range (equivalent of the 61.8% OTE. retracement) Etc.
4. Determine Lower Timeframe Market Structure Break Type
IMG Pro has two options for Lower Timeframe Structure Breaks:
Market Structure Breaks: When selected, the system will use the first opposite pivot (in the current chart timeframe) to the left of a confirmed SFP to calculate a break in market structure when price closes through it:
Market Structure Shifts: When selected, the system will use the first opposite pivot (in the current chart timeframe) to the left OR right of a confirmed SFP to calculate a break in market structure when price closes through it. MSS’ are more sensitive and may provide more false signals but are useful when there are big spike liquidity runs:
5. Apply Early Warning Systems if enabled:
The IMG Pro indicator has an early warning system that will generate a potential setup alert before a HTF SFP is confirmed
There are two types of early warnings:
LTF Structure Break Early Warning:
If enabled, the system will generate a potential setup alert if price cuts through a HTF level (Range Extreme / Internal Liquidity) and prints an opposite LTF MSB back through that level. This is a more aggressive approach where the system does not wait for the HTF SFP to be confirmed.
Example: In the screenshot below, the system did not wait for a H12 SFP to be confirmed, allowing it to signal an entry that would have otherwise been missed if the LTF Structure Break early warning system was not enabled
LTF FVG Early Warning:
If enabled, the system will generate a potential setup alert if price cuts through a HTF level (Range Extreme / Internal Liquidity) and prints an opposite LTF FVG back through that level. No LTF MSB is required and a limit order at the FVG is signalled. This is a more aggressive approach where the system does not wait for the HTF SFP to be confirmed.
Example: In the screenshot below, the system did not wait for a H12 SFP to be confirmed, signalling an entry as soon as an opposite LTF FVG is confirmed pushing price back through the HTF Liquidity Levels
6. Trade Setup Types Available with IMG PRO:
The system will alert you to potential trade setups at these HTF POIs: .
a. Higher Timeframe (HTF) Swing Failure followed by a Lower Timeframe (LTF) MSB at Range Extremes
b. Higher Timeframe (HTF) Swing Failure followed by a Lower Timeframe (LTF) MSB at enabled HTF POIs
c. Higher Timeframe (HTF) Swing Failure followed by a Lower Timeframe (LTF) MSB at All Internal Liquidity Levels (With Trend and Counter Trend)
d. Higher Timeframe (HTF) Swing Failure followed by a Lower Timeframe (LTF) MSB at All Internal Liquidity Levels (With Trend ONLY)
e. Lower Timeframe (LTF) Swing Failure followed by a Lower Timeframe (LTF) MSB at enabled HTF POIs
f. Multiple LTF Entry Options once a signal is confirmed
a. HTF Swing Failure followed by a LTF MSB at Range Extremes
A Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) is a technical analysis concept used in trading to identify potential reversals in price trends. It occurs when the price attempts to surpass a previous high or low but fails to sustain that level, indicating a possible change in market direction. There are multiple methods to define a SFP but this indicator uses the failure to close through a Key Level. When confirmed, HTF SFPs will be displayed on-screen and an alert will fire if enabled.
Example: EURUSD H12 Trade Setup Alerts at Range Extremes on a H1 Chart:
Alerts to Enter at Lower Timeframe MSBs
When enabled, a potential trade setup label and alert will generate when a HTF SFP is confirmed at a Range Extreme followed by a Chart Timeframe (Lower Timeframe) Market Structure Break (MSB). These signals are agnostic to current Market Structure bias and will generate at both extremes.
b. HTF Swing Failure followed by a LTF MSB at HTF POIs:
When enabled, a trade setup label and alert will generate when a HTF SFP is confirmed at an enabled Higher Timeframe POI (Order Blocks / Breakers / FVGs) followed by a Chart Timeframe (Lower Timeframe) Market Structure Break (MSB). These signals are always in line current Market Structure bias.
Example: H12 SFPs and Trade Setups at HTF POIs with Fluid Exits on a H1 Chart:
c. HTF Swing Failure followed by a LTF MSB at All Internal Liquidity Levels ( With Trend and Counter Trend ):
When enabled, a trade setup label and alert will generate when a HTF SFP is confirmed at an Internal Liquidity Level followed by a LTF Market Structure Break (MSB) or Market Structure Shift(MSS). These signals are agnostic to HTF Market Structure bias and will alert to setups with and counter trend.
Example:
d. HTF Swing Failure followed by a LTF MSB at All Internal Liquidity Levels ( With Trend ONLY )
Same as (c), but will only signal trades that are in line with higher timeframe structure. I.e If HTF Structure is bullish, then only bullish trades will be signalled.
e. LTF Swing Failure followed by a LTF MSB at enabled HTF POIs
The system will alert you to a lower timeframe setup if these conditions are met inside enabled HTF POIs (OBs / Breakers / FVGs):
- LTF SFP
- LTF MSB
Example:
f. LTF Entry Options:
IMG PRO provides the following options for LTF Entries:
i. Limit Entry at MSB Level
ii. Limit Entry at Breaker
iii. Limit Entry at Raid Candle
iv. Limit Entry at OTE 70.5% Retracement
v. Market Entries (where applicable)
Trade entry alerts will detail limit entry prices based on the option selected here.
7. Unentered Trade Invalidations:
IMG Pro can invalidate unentered signals based on these custom criteria:
a. Opposite HTF SFP Before Entry
b. TP Hit Before Entry
c. Confirmed Opposite Signal Before Entry
If enabled and criteria met, the system will alert you to cancel any limit orders for the trade that is being invalidated.
8. Trade Exit Types Available with IMG PRO:
The system provides the following options for trade exit alerts:
a. Exit at Fixed R:R
b. Exit at a confirmed Opposite Signal (Fluid Exits)
c. Exit at enabled and untested HTF POIs
d. Exit on an opposite HTF SFP at a liquidity level
Example: H12 SFPs and Potential Trade Setups at Internal Liquidity Levels with Exit at closest untested HTF POI on a H1 Chart:
9. IMG PRO Alerts Overview
The system provides notifications of:
a. Confirmed HTF Market Structure Breaks
b. Confirmed HTF SFPs at Range Extremes
c. Confirmed HTF SFPs at HTF POIs
d. Confirmed HTF SFPs at Liquidity Levels
e. Potential Trade Setups at Range Extremes

Forex Master Pattern Screener 2Overview
The Forex Master Pattern Screener 2 is based on the Master Pattern, which includes contraction, expansion, and trend phases. This indicator is designed to identify and visualize market volatility, market phases, multi-timeframe contractions, liquidity points, and pivot calculations. It provides a clear image of the market's expansion and contraction phases. It's based on an alternative form of technical analysis that reveals the psychological patterns of financial markets through three phases.
Unlike the other master pattern indicators that just use highs and lows and aren't as accurate for finding contractions, this one uses actual measures of volatility to find extremely low levels of volatility and has customizable parameters depending on what you want to do.
What is the Forex Master Pattern?
The Forex Master Pattern is a framework that revolves around understanding market cycles, comprising the three main phases: contraction, expansion, and trend.
Contraction Phase: During this phase, the market has low volatility and is consolidating within a narrow range. Institutional volume tends to be low, and it's suggested to avoid trade entries during this period.
Expansion Phase: Volatility starts to increase, and there start to be bigger moves in price. Institutional traders start accumulating positions in this phase, and they might manipulate prices to draw in retail traders, creating liquidity for their own buying or selling goals.
Trend Phase: This final phase completes the market cycle. Institutional traders begin taking profits, leading to a reversal. This triggers panic among retail traders, resulting in liquidations and stops. This generates liquidity for institutional traders to profit, leaving retail traders with overvalued positions.
Value Line:
The "value line" acts as the fair value zone or the neutral belief zone where buyers and sellers agree on fair value. It can be likened to the center of gravity and is created during contraction zones.
Applications:
Identifying these phases and understanding the value lines can help traders determine the market's general direction and make better trading decisions.
This isn't a strategy but a concept explaining market behavior, allowing traders to develop various strategies based on these principles
The contractions, which are based on volatility calculations, can help you find out when big moves will occur, known as expansions.
How traders can use this indicator
1. Identifying Market Phases:
Contraction Phase: Look for periods where the market has low volatility and is contracting, indicated by a narrow range and highlighted by the contraction box. During this phase, traders prepare for a breakout but usually avoid making new trades until a clearer trend emerges.
Expansion Phase: When the indicator signals an expansion, it suggests that the market is moving out of consolidation and may be beginning a new trend. Traders might look for entry points here, anticipating a continuation of the trend.
Trend Phase: As the market enters this phase, traders look for signs of sustained movement in one direction and consider positions that benefit from this trend.
2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
By looking at multiple timeframes, traders can get a broader view of the market. For instance, a contraction phase in a shorter timeframe within an expansion phase in a longer timeframe might suggest a pullback in an overall uptrend. This indicator comes with a MTF contraction screener that is customizable.
2. Fair Value Lines:
The fair value acts like a "center of gravity.". Traders could use this as a reference point for understanding market sentiment and potential reversal points. This indicator shows these values in the middle of the contraction boxes.
3. Volatility Analysis:
This indicator's volatility settings can help traders understand the market's current volatility state. High volatility indicates a more active market with larger, faster moves, while low volatility might suggest caution and tighter stop-losses or take-profits. If volatility is contracting, then an expansion is imminent. This indicator shows the volatility with percentile ranks in 0-100 values and also alerts you when volatility is contracting, aka the contraction phase.
Volatility Calculations:
This indicator uses a geometric standard deviation to measure volatility based on historical price data. This metric quantifies the variability of price changes over a specified lookback period and then computes a percentile rank within a defined sample period. This percentile calculation helps evaluate the current volatility compared to historical levels.
Based on the percentile rank, the indicator sets thresholds to determine whether the current volatility is within a range considered "contraction" or not. For example, if there are really low levels of volatility on the percentile rank, then there is currently a contraction phase. The indicator also compares the volatility value against a moving average, where values above the current moving average value signal the expansion phase.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF):
This indicator comes with a multi-timeframe table that shows contractions for 5 different timeframes, and the table is customizable.
Bands:
This indicator comes with bands that are constructed based on the statistical calculations of the standard deviation applied to the log-transformed closing prices. It is commonly assumed that the distribution of prices fits some type of right-skewed distribution. To remove most of the skewness, you can use a log transformation , which makes the distribution more symmetrical and easier to analyze, thus the use of these bands . These bands are in the 2 standard deviation range. You can use these bands to trade at extreme levels. The band parameter is based on the contraction volatility lookback, which is in the Volatility Model Settings tab.
Ways the bands could be used with the contractions:
1. Identifying Breakout trades:
Contraction Zones: These zones indicate periods of low volatility where the market is consolidating. There are usually narrow price ranges, which are considered a build-up phase before a significant price move in any direction.
Bands: When the contraction zone occurs, you might notice the bands tightening around the price on smaller lookback periods, reflecting the decreased volatility. A continuous widening of the bands could then signal the beginning of an expansion phase, indicating a potential breakout opportunity.
2. Enhancing Trade Timing:
Before the Breakout: During the contraction phase, the bands might move closer together, reflecting the lower volatility. You can monitor this phase closely and prepare for a potential expansion. The bands can provide additional confirmation; for instance, a price move toward one of the bands might show an extreme occurrence and might show what the direction of the breakout could be.
After the breakout: Once the price breaks out of the contraction zone and goes to the expansion phase, and if it coincides with the bands widening significantly, it could reinforce the strength and potential sustainability of the new trend, providing a clearer entry.
3. Price-touching bands during a contraction:
If the price repeatedly touches one of the bands during a contraction phase, it might suggest a buildup of pressure in that direction. For example, if the price is consistently touching the upper band even though the bands are narrow, it might suggest bullish pressure that could occur once the expansion phase begin.
4. Price at the band extreme levels during Expansion:
If the price is at the extreme levels of the bands once the expansion phase occurs, it might indicate unsustainable levels and a low probability of the price continuing beyond those levels. Potentially signaling that a reversal will occur. Some trades could use these extremes to place entries during the expansion phases.
Liquidity Levels:
This script comes with liquidity points, whose functionality goes towards identifying pivotal levels in price action, focusing on swing highs and swing lows in the market. These points represent areas where significant buying (for swing lows) or selling (for swing highs) activity has occurred, implying potential levels or resistance in the price movement.
These liquidity points, often identified as highs and lows, are points where market participants have shown interest in the past. These levels can act as psychological indications where traders might place orders, leading to increased trading activity when these levels are approached or breached. When used with the Forex Master Pattern phases, liquidity levels can enhance trades placed with this indicator. For instance, if the market is expanding and approaches a significant liquidity level, there might be a higher chance of a breakout or reversal, showing a possible entry or exit point.
Liquidity Levels in the Contraction Phase:
Accumulation and Distribution: During the contraction phase, liquidity levels can indicate where huge positions are likely accumulating or distributing quietly. If price is near a known liquidity level and in a contraction phase, it might suggest that a large market player is building a position in anticipation of the next move.
Breakout Points: Liquidity levels can also give clues about where price could go after the breakout from the contraction phase. A break above a liquidity level might indicate a strong move to come as the market overcomes significant selling pressure.
Liquidity Levels in Expansion Phase:
Direct Confirmation: As the expansion phase begins, breaking through liquidity levels can confirm the new trend's direction. If the price moves past these levels with huge volume, it might indicate that the market has enough momentum to continue the trend.
Target Areas: Liquidity levels can act as target areas during the expansion phase. Traders using this indicator could look to take profits if the price approaches these levels, possibly expecting a reaction from the market.

Lune Oscillator Premium⬛️ Overview
Lune Oscillator is an advanced and innovative TradingView indicator designed to enhance your market analysis. Rather than merely improving visuals or merging traditional indicators, it introduces a series of unique features, each with its unique value proposition. This script stands out due to its originality, and the significant utility it brings to traders.
🟦 Features
Oscillator features an assortment of sophisticated tools aimed at refining your trading strategies:
🔹 Trend Oscillator: This feature integrates market trend and momentum analysis into one dynamic oscillator. It's designed to facilitate market trend and momentum analysis, and is invaluable to traders as it combines both trend and momentum analysis into one tool. For instance, if a ticker shows signs of slowing momentum after a recent rally, the Trend Oscillator could predict a potential trend reversal. The Trend Oscillator’s sensitivity and velocity settings can be tailored to suit your trading style and strategy. It is developed using a custom formula similar to WaveTrend but optimized for better detection of trend and momentum shifts.
🔹 Market Peak: Market Peak identifies potential market peaks and troughs using a percentile-based system. It's aimed at detecting overextensions in the Trend Oscillator, indicating potential market reversals. Compact and user-friendly, this feature signals potential trade exit points in case of an impending market reversal. Its sensitivity can be adjusted to react to either short-term or long-term market changes. By analyzing the market's average move, it detects overbought or oversold conditions when the percentage gets too extreme.
🔹 Money Pulse: The Money Pulse feature serves as a radar for money inflow or outflow, helping users detect nascent trends and reversals. It enables traders to spot early opportunities and reversals and align their strategies with institutional and large players. For example, a bullish Money Pulse during market consolidation could signal money influx and the beginning of an accumulation phase. The sensitivity of the Market Pulse can be adapted to short-term or long-term changes. This feature employs an improved version of the Money Flow concept.
🔹 Liquidity Pulse: Liquidity Pulse provides a unique perspective of asset liquidity by tracking market inflow and outflow volumes. It assists traders in understanding the market's liquidity sentiment, which is particularly useful for long-term trades and confluence. For instance, a bullish Liquidity Pulse could signal abundant liquidity, potentially driving up the price. The sensitivity setting can be adjusted for short-term or long-term liquidity changes. This feature utilizes an enhanced version of the On-Balance Volume concept.
🔹 Institutional Wave: This feature tracks the cumulative inflow and outflow for a specific ticker, helping traders monitor institutional money flows. It enables the analysis of a ticker's accumulation and distribution, assisting in detecting early trade entries and avoiding dumps. For example, a decrease in volume during consolidation after a price rally could indicate sell-off and potential price drop. The Institutional Wave's sensitivity can be adapted to either short-term or long-term changes. It operates on the Accumulation and Distribution concept.
🔹 Power Wave: The Power Wave evaluates market strength and momentum, indicating market power shifts. It helps traders understand the true power behind a market move. For instance, a decreasing Power Wave during a bullish move could indicate a weakening trend, suggesting a bearish strategy instead. The sensitivity of the Power Wave can be set for short-term or long-term market changes. The Power Wave calculates market strength by evaluating price change volatility.
🔹 Market Pressure: This feature detects shifts in buy and sell pressure, signaling potential turning points. It helps traders understand the power balance in the market. For example, a bullish Market Pressure shift during a short trade could suggest a momentum gain by bulls, indicating a trade exit. The Market Pressure's sensitivity can be adjusted for short-term or long-term changes. This feature uses volume data and moving averages to detect market pressure shifts, filtering out false and volatile signals.
🔹 Oscillator Copilot: Incorporating Smart Bias and Reversal Radar, the Oscillator Copilot helps identify market trends and potential reversals. It searches for confluence within multiple Oscillator features, providing a straightforward assistive tool. For example, a bullish Smart Bias signal during a long trade could suggest staying in the trade longer, while a bearish Reversal Radar signal could indicate the need to exit the trade.
🔹 Divergence Detection: This feature offers a sophisticated detection system for both regular and hidden market divergences, providing additional confluence and highlighting hard-to-detect divergences. For instance, a bullish Regular Divergence could signal a potential trade entry or exit depending on your overall market sentiment and bias. This feature uses fractals to effectively detect divergences in the market based on the Trend Oscillator.
🔹 Color Themes: Personalize your charting experience with various color themes. This feature enhances the visual appeal of your chart, offering easy setup and use. For example, use the “Ice” theme for a unique and colorful experience or the “Dark” theme for a more subdued look. Themes available include Default, Light, Dark, and Ice. This feature modifies the colors of your candles and features based on the selected theme.
These features and tools collectively offer a comprehensive solution for traders to understand and navigate the financial markets. It's important to remember that they are designed to assist in making informed trading decisions and should be used as part of a balanced trading strategy.
🟧 Usage
Lune Oscillator's features are designed to be both standalone tools and components of a larger, integrated trading strategy. It is important to understand each feature and experiment with different configurations to best suit your unique trading needs.
🔸 Example #1: The following demonstrates how the Oscillator Copilot can be an excellent trade assistant.
The Oscillator Copilot leverages multiple Lune Oscillator features, allowing traders to quickly assess overall market sentiment. It uses Smart Bias and Reversal Radar tools to deliver these insights. For instance, at point 1, a bullish Smart Bias (denoted by a green circle) represents a collective bullish sentiment from multiple components of Lune Oscillator, often leading to a price increase. Conversely, at point 2, we identify two bearish reversal signals from the Reversal Radar (highlighted by red triangles). This convergence of bearish signals from multiple components hints at a potential market reversal, often followed by a gradual price decline.
🔸 Example #2: This example shows how the Market Peak feature can aid in detecting potential market tops and bottoms.
Market Peak calculates how overbought or oversold a ticker is using a percentile system, offering insights into potential reversals. At points 1 and 2, we observe bearish Market Peaks suggesting overbought conditions and indicating a possible shift in trend. Subsequent to these peaks, we witness a price drop, mirroring the overbought market conditions. In contrast, at point 3, a bullish Market Peak suggests an oversold market, indicating a potential trend reversal and subsequent price increase.
🔸 Example #3: This is an example of how combining various features such as the Money Pulse, Liquidity Pulse, Institutional Wave, and Market Peak, can help make more informed trades.
Money Pulse and Liquidity Pulse provide insights into the money and liquidity flow in the market, respectively, while the Institutional Wave monitors the cumulative volume shifts and changes. Together with Market Peak, they offer a comprehensive view of the market's state.
At point 1, the positive Liquidity Wave (crossing above 0) suggests a bullish market volume. At point 2, a bullish Market Pressure indicates an increase in buying pressure, reinforcing the bullish sentiment. At point 3, a negative Liquidity Wave (crossing below 0) indicates a bearish sentiment, suggesting that market participants are exiting their positions. The concurrent Market Pressure hints at an increase in selling activity. Taking all these factors into account provides a strong indicator that the market sentiment has turned bearish.
🟥 Conclusion

Diddly - Real Volume TrendDiddly Real Volume Trend is an indicator to help traders identify the real trending direction of an asset, it achieves this by using liquidity to assess the overall buying and selling volume sentiment of a market place.
What is Liquidity
Liquidity refers to the ability of an asset to be turned into cash. Cash is the more liquid form of any asset, whereas selling a house would take a little longer to liquidate and convert to cash. Liquidity in financial markets is in essence based on the same principle and refers to how easily an asset can be bought and sold.
Liquidity in simple terms is the volume of participants who are willing to be involved in the market at any given time. Markets are based on auction theory, the more participants who want to buy at a certain price than sell, will dictate that the price goes up. As a result it is important to understand the role that volume has in financial markets, as volume will directly correlate to liquidity and supply and demand.
What does it mean?
Although markets are based on auction theory, sadly we don't have the advantage of a traditional auction, where we are all sitting in a room putting our hands in the air when we are interested in paying x price for a particular item. In this environment it is very clear to see how popular the item for sale is and whether it is possible to pick up a bargain.
Being able to identify the prevailing direction of buying versus selling volume on a chart provides an insight into market sentiment. Also we have to consider that typically most retail traders participate in very liquid markets, where you can get in and out of a position with relative ease.
There are obviously exceptions, extremely low float stocks, but on the whole with liquid assets it takes some big orders to move price, especially with currencies and high float stocks. Understanding these principles helps us as retail traders identify where the big money is seeing a bargain, if buying or overpriced if selling.
However you identify liquidity, I hope you agree that it is an extremely important element to be considering before taking a trade. The last thing any trader wants to be doing if they can avoid it, is getting on the wrong side of the market.
Just as a side note, high and low "Float Stocks" refers to the number of shares in general circulation for buying and selling.
What is "Diddly Real Volume Trend"
This volume trend indicator in simple terms will display the combined accumulated bullish and bearish volume within a window below the main chart. What you will see is a line chart that will be doing one of three things. Either it could be stair stepping in an upwards direction, identifying that we are in a bullish trend or stepping down in a bearish trend. Alternatively it could just be going sideways, which would suggest a ranging market.
This enables traders to make an assessment of the market sentiment using the liquidity direction that it has identified. This can help form an overall daily bias for intra-day traders or help confirm a longer term trend for swing traders.
Although this indicator is not a true oscillator (where the limits of number are fixed between a known upper and lower limit) , it can still be extremely useful in identifying divergence in price and the volume sentiment. As well as assisting in the process of identifying and confirming peak formations and potential reversal points in a market.
How does it Work
The indicator is plotting the volume trend line based on the output of a set of volume calculations, which is confirmed on the close of each candle. The resultant output is either a positive (Bullish sentiment) or negative (Bearish Sentiment), which are all totalled up to show the next point on the graph. As a result the visual effect seen from this process is that the more bullish calculated volume identified than bearish, you will see a rising trend line and the reverse for a bearish market.
The algo calculation which is used on each candle and its related volume is using the following elements.
Volume
Rate of Change
Relative Strength
The indicator is not just looking at the volume total and saying this is a green candle and must provide a positive number. It is looking for the volume and liquidity extremes and filtering out the nothingness of a market that makes no difference to price either way. It is from using these extremes that the indicator is able to plot the activities and direction of the big money in the market.
What is the Indicator Showing me?
Examples:
Here on a stock VKTX, on a 1 minute chart the elements that make up the indicator are annotated on the chart.
There are 6 components highlighted in the above chart, these have been listed below.
Volume Trend Line
This is the indicator driving line and is the result of the calculations described in the previous section.
Fast Moving Average
This is the fast moving average of the "Volume Trend Line". The moving average type and length can be changed in the settings.
(Default = Exponential Moving Average, Length: 60)
Slow Moving Average
This is a slower moving average of the "Volume Trend Line". The moving average type and length can be changed in the settings.
(Default = Hull Moving Average, Length: 3500)
Long Term Moving Average
This is a long term moving average of the "Volume Trend Line". The moving average type and length can be changed in the settings.
(Default = Exponential Moving Average, Length: 400)
Bullish Confirmation
On the "Volume Trend Line", you will see coloured circles dotted along the line, the green circles signifying Bullish Confirmation.
Bearish Confirmation
On the "Volume Trend Line", you will see coloured circles dotted along the line, the red circles signifying Bearish Confirmation.
The Bullish and Bearish confirmation signals are not signals to take trades, they are there to highlight the predominant direction. Seeing one confirmation signal in isolation is not that helpful, but continued prints of confirmation in a single direction would be interesting.
There are a further two signal types that are displayed on the volume trend line, these should be seen infrequently across charts and represent potential extremes of price movement in a single direction. These signals act as a warning that price could stall in this area or potentially make a reversal. As with the other signals within this indicator they are not signals to buy or sell, they are there to provide warning alerts and should be considered with other pieces of information that you are working with.
Bullish Extreme
Plotted on the "Volume Trend Line", you will occasionally see a green coloured downwardly pointing triangle, this represents a Bullish Extreme.
GBPAUD Hourly chart October 2022
Bearish Extreme
Plotted on the "Volume Trend Line", you will occasionally see a red coloured upward pointing triangle, this represents a Bearish Extreme.

How Does It Help?
This indicator will compliment any existing strategy and is not intended to be used standalone.
It can be used on any chart from a monthly, one minute to one second, depending on your trading strategy. Using multiple time frame analysis can help traders with a number of decisions that need to be considered before taking entries.
What is my market direction bias?
This can be taken from an hourly for intraday trader or daily for swing traders. What that time frame is depends on your trading plan and objectives from the trades you take.
When do I take my trades?
Again depending on the trading strategy used will dictate many aspect of this decision, although using the volume trend on a lower time frame, can help confirm breakouts, reversals and divergence.
How should I manage my trade?
With any trade you should have a defined risk reward clearly defined, with stops and targets in mind before taking an entry.
The age old saying of "cut your losses quickly and let your winner run", is easier said than mastered. Once in a trade the volume trend can be really helpful to identify trades that could be real runners and allows you to change expectations after entering the trade. Maybe you want to take some profit at the original point and let the remaining run. Maybe there is such strength you want to add to the position. Being able to assess market sentiment once in a trade can help with optimising returns.
The "Volume Trend Line", which is the driving element of this indicator, will be doing one of three things. Either it could be stair stepping in an upwards direction, identifying that we are in a bullish trend, stepping down in a bearish trend or going sideways in a ranging market.
Bullish Volume Trending Market
Here is stock VKTX, on a 1 minute chart. Trend confirmation on price action is determined by Higher Highs and Higher Lows for an uptrend or Lower Lows and Lower Highs on a downtrend. The same principle applies for the volume trend line.
In this example we first see breakout volume on the indicator with the Bullish Break volume, following that the volume trend keeps making higher highs and higher lows, confirming that this asset has short-term upwards potential. (why short-term? this is the 1 minute chart, you would want to consult the daily or hourly for a longer term perspective).
Price also is making higher highs and higher lows, which is in alignment with the indicator and known as "convergence" and is a positive signal for a continued trend.
Bearish Market
So here on Tesla (TSLA) on the 4 hour chart we can see the big sell off that started in April 2022. Where it clearly shows a downward trend, with lots of confirmation for continuation.
Ranging Markets
On this example on the AUDJPY 1 Hour chart, we can see that price is in a ranging market. By drawing trend lines on price and the indicator, it is clear to see that price and the volume trend line are both showing a ranging market. What is more interesting is the structure of the ranges.
The price range at the top of the chart is in an upward direction, whereas the volume trend in the bottom window is showing a downward range. Giving us an early indication of what to expect from this asset.
Diverging Markets
"Divergence" is a very powerful mechanism for identifying potential reversal points in price actions. There is a wealth of published information on this topic which is well worth reviewing, if this is a new principle to you.
Here again on the same AUDJPY 1 Hour chart example, points of interest have been annotated on the chart where the historical range turns into a step down to the next level within the market cycle, as predicted by the divergence in range patterns, price point up and volume pointing down.
In the above example, after identifying the divergence the next most important element is an extremely fast accelerated move down which breaks the lower level of the range, this can be seen on the right side of the bottom window and is labelled "Bearish Breaking Volume".
What is interesting here is that the volume indicator has identified the range breakout when price was still above the lower level of the range. Following that break out volume signal, if we zoom out to a 4 hour chart to see what happened next.
The range breakout was confirmed and price and the volume trend continues to show a downward direction in the market. As for entries and stops that is not the intention of this indicator and will be down to other elements in your trading strategy or in our case other indicators.
Peak Formations
Peak formation refers to the point where an asset is over extended in one direction and there is a potential of change in direction, with a wider pullback or a reversal in the higher time frame trend. These formations are often seen with double bottoms (W patterns) or double tops (M patterns) . Unfortunately these patterns appear all over the chart and trading them in isolation will be challenging.
In this example of EURJPY on the 1 hour chart, we see price and the indicator in the bottom window for the first 3 weeks in March 2022. The pair is trending down which is confirmed by both price and the indicator. There are no signals points plotted on the volume trend line, until one appears on March 4th 2022.
Another one appeared on the next trading day of Monday the 7th and we now have these two signals relatively close to each other. This is interesting information, especially considering that there was no extreme signals for the previous couple of months.
Later that day the volume trend broke the previous volume level, after a W pattern was completed and a green bullish confirmation signal was printed. The following day another bullish confirmation signal is displayed to further confirm that we had made a peak formation reversal.
Please note that using the settings style tab, has enabled the change to the bearish extremes signal, changing the colour and shape to be an orange circle. Which for the purposes of this illustration is easier to see.
Another example of the same pair in August 2022, with a very similar confirmation sequence.
Stock Examples
Here on UBER on a 1 hour chart , is an example of how the indicator can be used in confluence with other trading strategies. If a trader was trading candle patterns, they may see this classic 1 hour bull flag pattern forming.
Without the volume trend analysis this looks like a good buy setup. Adding this analysis to the chart we clearly have a different view point.
Here is what subsequently happened to price and this is in a generally bullish market March 2023.
Scalping Entries
For those traders who work with super fast time frames like the 5 second or even on a 1 second charts, the volume indicator can be used to help time entries as a part of a wider trading strategy of trading a pullback or trading support and resistance levels.
Styling options in the indicator settings enabled this different view of the indicator output, which can be extremely useful for timing entries.
Here on this hot IPO stock, LUNR from February 16th 2023, we have an extremely strong move up from $13.80 to $18.00. One aspect of this move up, is that it is doing this on extremely light volume and the predominant market sentiment on the surface seems very bearish.
This would be a clear indication not to trade this stock at this moment in time, as a trader there would be lots of emotions of FOMO (fear of missing out) , seeing a stock making that kind off move on a new IPO - there is the sense that this stock will go to the moon and your not going to be involved.
As traders we have to consider the risk : reward potential. This stock could drop to $10.00 if someone put in a 50 k market sell order, as it is clear there are not the buyers to support that kind of liquidation.
The following charts are in the 5 second time frame, until otherwise stated
So we need to wait for some confirmation of buying liquidity before we can make any plans for taking an entry, which we get in the form of a couple of strong bullish candles on the chart below. Interestingly the price breaks the previous all time high for this stock, although the volume trend at this stage does not seem strong enough to consider an entry.
At this point we should be on the lookout for further buying liquidity, ideally to break the previous high volume line, which appears in the next chart. This would be the time to take an entry based on other aspects of a trading plan.
Having now taken an entry, we can use the indicator to understand the strength of the buying liquidity and identify areas where we should be looking to take profit or close out the trade. Looking at the volume trend profile shown in the chart below, there is no reason not to hold this stock for a wider move up.
In the next chart we see the first signs of some selling pressure, as the indicator shows signs of red. This would be the area to take some profit and look at a higher time frame perspective, to get the sense of whether to hold the remaining position.
Here on the 5 minute time frame the volume trend is still looking very strong to hold the remaining position. As it turned out it was a good place to take profit as it was just under the high of the day.
Knowing when an asset is going to reverse is not easy and this stock was way too over extended and a top had to finally come. This one minute view of the indicator, shows the point where you would see that the upward liquidity was over and you were now on the backside of the move, with no reason to trade further.
Here on a 15 minute chart you can see the full extent of the move and its reversal back to the original price. It provides a clear illustration that chasing trades through FOMO or holding and hoping is not a profitable approach. Being able to time your entries and exits, where you can clearly manage risk is one of the most important elements to any traders strategy.
This is an extreme example and not something you see every day in any market. It has been included within this narrative with the hope that it clearly illustrates the risk involved in trading and being able to mitigate them, has to be at the forefront of your mind.
Key Settings
Within the indicator settings there are a number of options that are available to users. All aspects of what you can see can either be changed or turned on or off in the "Style" tab as well as changing the colours and their transparency.
The available settings on the "Inputs" tab are for fine tuning the indicator to your style of trading. This fine tuning can be applied to the moving averages that can be displayed and follow the volume trend line as well as the volume filtering process.
The most important ones that are in need of explanation are outline below:
General Settings
"What type of asset is the Algo looking at" : Available Options = "Small Caps", "Large Caps", "Futures", "Currencies" (Default Setting = Currencies)
The indicator will make an assessment of the best settings to use as defaults for the volume filtering, confirmation and extremes signals. The defaults can be changed in the following sections using the override.
"Turn on Turbo Mode" : True or False (Default Settings = True)
This setting will give the indicator volume filtering processes a boost
Signal Settings
Based on the "Asset Type" from the general settings, the indicator will make an assessment of the best settings to use by default. These can be changed by using the settings below.
"Override Default Assessment Thresholds" = True / False
"Percentage Difference to Signify Trend Confirmation" = A percentage value that will tell the indicator how to identify the volume trend line swing points used to identify bullish or bearish confirmation signals. Values from 0.1 to 10 would make the most sense. A too high setting and you will not see any confirmation points plotted. Too low and you may see too many to be useful.
"Percentage Difference to Signify Extremes" = A percentage value that will tell the indicator how to identify the volume trend line swing points used to identify bullish or bearish confirmation signals. Values from 20 to 200 would make the most sense. A low a setting and you will see too many extreme points plotted.
Filter Settings
"Turn On Volume Assessment Filters" = True / False : The volume assessment filters are used to focus the "volume trend line" on higher volume extremes.
Based on the "Asset Type" from the general settings, the indicator will make an assessment of the best settings to use by default. These can be changed by using the settings below.
"Override Default Assessment Filters" = True / False
"Filter Volume using Setting" = The number used in this setting represents a value from 0 to 100. Zero will filter out no volume, whereas 100 would filter it all out. The default setting is 1, as there is a danger of setting this number too high and all you will see in the line chart is big steps up and down, with a plateaus in the middle. Which may be useful, although it would not be so helpful in divergence or volume line breaks.
Fast Moving Average
This is the fast moving average of the "Volume Trend Line".
"Moving Average Type" = The type of moving average calculation to be applied.
Default = "EMA"
Available Options: "SMA","EMA" ,"HMA" ,"SMMA (RMA)" ,"WMA" ,"VWMA"
Moving Average Key
SMA : Simple Moving Average
EMA : Exponential Moving Average
HMA : Hull Moving Average
SMMA (RMA) : Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (alpha = 1 / length.)
WMA : Weighted Moving Average
VWMA : Volume Weighted Moving Average
"Moving Average Length" = The number of candles back into the chart used to calculate the Moving Average. (The higher the number, the slower the moving average becomes)
Default Length = 60
"Apply Double Smoothing" = True or False : This is an option to turn on if an extra smoothing effect to the moving average if required.
Slow Moving Average
This is the slow moving average of the "Volume Trend Line".
"Moving Average Type" = The type of moving average calculation to be applied.
Default = "HMA"
Available Options: "SMA","EMA" ,"HMA" ,"SMMA (RMA)" ,"WMA" ,"VWMA"
(See moving average key)
"Moving Average Length" = The number of candles back into the chart used to calculate the Moving Average. (The higher the number, the slower the moving average becomes)
Default Length = 3500
(By default we have a higher number for the slow length compared to the long term length in the next setting. This is because using the Hull Moving Average, is an accelerated moving average that needs higher values to slow it down. If you were to change this to say an EMA, then you would need to change the length to something like 200, to put this slower moving average in context with the others).
Long Term Moving Average
This is a long term moving average of the "Volume Trend Line".
"Moving Average Type" = The type of moving average calculation to be applied.
Default = "EMA"
Available Options: "SMA","EMA" ,"HMA" ,"SMMA (RMA)" ,"WMA" ,"VWMA"
(See moving average key)
"Moving Average Length" = The number of candles back into the chart used to calculate the Moving Average. (The higher the number, the slower the moving average becomes)
Default Length = 400
"Apply Double Smoothing" = True or False : This is an option to turn on if an extra smoothing effect to the moving average if required.
Finally
We greatly appreciate the support and feedback from the Trading View community, and we are dedicated to continuing to improve our indicators with your support.
We want to help you manage risk, and that's why we emphasise that trading is risky and any technology used to support our trading decisions is based on information from the past. We encourage traders to take responsibility for their trading businesses and always prioritise risk management.
Total Turnover Moving Average (TTMA)This is a special type of moving average that incorporates financial information into technical indicators.
CONCEPT:
Number of shares outstanding (NOSH) reflects the floating tickets available for trading in the market. This indicator aims to look at what price has the market transacted on average, given all the NOSH has been turned over.
In order to do this, the number of periods required for trading volume to add up to NOSH is determined. Then, a simple moving average of closing price is calculated based on the number of periods.
Put simply, TTMA is a variable MA indicator, which the parameter depends on trading volume and NOSH. Since every counter has varying NOSH, it also translates volume into liquidity. Given two counters of the same volume , the one with lower NOSH has higher liquidity.
USAGE:
Bullish: when prices are above TTMA
Bearish: when prices are below TTMA
CAVEAT:
Generally works well for mid-cap to large-cap stocks, but not volatile penny counters (just like how you will not use 2-day moving average!). Good as reference and should NOT be used standalone.
M2025Overview
We Provide you a custom made model called M2025
M2025 works based on some well-known fundamentals of trading, here are the filters/checks we used in this script:
MTF Support/Resistance (Based on RSI)
Liquidity Levels
Displacement/FVG
Support/Resistance (Based on RSI)
support and resistance are key concepts used to identify potential turning points in the market.
Support is a price level where demand is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further — it acts as a “floor.”
Resistance is a level where selling pressure tends to stop the price from rising — it acts as a “ceiling.”
Support and resistance help traders identify entry points, exit targets, and stop-loss areas, and are essential tools for understanding market structure and trend strength.
In M2025 , Support and Resistance are identified based on pivot high and pivot low found with RSI values.
Liquidity Levels
liquidity levels are price areas where a large number of buy or sell orders are clustered. These zones often form around swing highs, swing lows, support, and resistance levels, where many traders place stop-loss or pending orders.
Fair Value Gap
an FVG (Fair Value Gap) refers to an imbalance or “gap” in price action that occurs when the market moves too quickly in one direction, leaving little to no trading activity between certain price levels. This gap represents an area where buy and sell orders were not efficiently matched, creating an inefficiency in the market.
Traders often expect price to return to these zones later to “fill” the gap, restoring balance and are used to identify potential retracement zones.
How it works
This Model 2025 mainly works in 4 steps using all the techniques mentioned above.
Bullish Setup
Step 1 : Market is in Bullish Zone
Step 2 : Market Breaks the Buy Side Liquidity
Step 3 : Market Makes FVG while moving up before breaking the SSL
Step 4 : Market Breaks the Sell Side Liquidity within the Window Range
Bearish Setup
Step 1 : Market is in Bearish Zone
Step 2 : Market Breaks the Sell Side Liquidity
Step 3 : Market Makes FVG while moving down before breaking the BSL
Step 4 : Market Breaks the Buy Side Liquidity within the Window Range
Conclusion
M2025 works using well known trading techniques but the innovation in that is using them as steps and triggers which stimulate the real trading methods of many trades around the world. This is just an idea which we wanted to share with this great community of ours, thus this indicator is a tool for technical analysis and it should not be the sole basis for trading decisions for anyone out there. No indicator is perfect hence depending on one is not recommended.
Syndicate Bias Universal (Auto)Syndicate Bias Universal (Auto): A Masterclass in Time-Based Trading
Chapter 1: The Modern Trader's Dilemma—A New Framework for a Noisy Market
In today's hyper-connected financial markets, the modern trader is faced with a profound paradox: we have access to more information than ever before, yet achieving consistent clarity has never been more challenging. We are inundated with a relentless stream of price data, countless indicators, breaking news, and expert opinions. This information overload often leads not to better decision-making, but to analysis paralysis, emotional trading, and a chronic sense of being one step behind the market's true intentions.
The fundamental problem that Syndicate Bias Universal (Auto) addresses is this struggle for clarity amidst the noise. It challenges the conventional approach of relying solely on price- and volume-based indicators, which are inherently lagging and often produce conflicting signals. Instead, it introduces a crucial, and often overlooked, third dimension to technical analysis: time.
This indicator is not merely another tool to be added to a cluttered chart; it is a comprehensive, systematic framework designed to reinterpret market dynamics through the structured lens of trading sessions. Its core function is to deconstruct any trading period—from an entire week down to the smallest intraday segments—into a clear, four-part narrative structure, which we call "Quarters."
Many traders can correctly identify a market's general direction but consistently struggle with the critical question of when to act. This timing issue leads to the most common trading errors: entering positions too early only to be stopped out by volatility, entering too late and catching the tail-end of a move, or being whipsawed by directionless chop. This script provides a logical, rules-based solution by identifying a specific, high-probability time window within each session where reversal setups are most likely to occur. It is built for the discerning trader who is ready to evolve—to move beyond reactive, emotionally-driven decisions and adopt a structured, patient, and objective methodology for market engagement. It is, in essence, an operating system for disciplined trading.
Chapter 2: The Core Philosophy—Viewing the Market as a Four-Quarter Game
At its heart, this indicator operates on a powerful principle: market sessions, regardless of their duration, exhibit a discernible rhythm and structure, much like a four-quarter game of football, a four-act theatrical play, or the four seasons of a year. Price action is not a chaotic, random walk. It is a story unfolding, driven by the collective psychology of millions of participants. This story often follows a recurring pattern of opening, exploration, climax, and resolution.
By dividing trading sessions into four distinct quarters, we can better contextualize this narrative. This temporal structure acts as a powerful filter, cutting through the incessant noise of minor price fluctuations and focusing the trader's attention on the moments that truly matter.
Quarter 1 (The Opening Act): This is the period of price discovery. The market is absorbing overnight news, and early participants are establishing their initial positions. The character of this quarter—whether it is quiet and rotational or strong and directional—provides crucial clues about the session's potential.
Quarter 2 (The Exploration): Following the initial open, the market begins to test the levels established in Q1. This is often a period of consolidation or early trend development, where weaker hands are shaken out.
Quarter 3 (The Climax): Often, this is where the session's primary, decisive move occurs. It can be a powerful trend continuation or, critically, a major reversal point where the initial momentum shows signs of exhaustion.
Quarter 4 (The Resolution): This is the closing period, characterized by profit-taking, late-day position adjustments, and a general decrease in volume as the session winds down.
This is not a "black box" system promising guaranteed results. It is a transparent methodology built on a clear, logical foundation of session analysis. Its purpose is to empower you with a deeper understanding of market behavior, transforming you from a mere participant, tossed about by the market's waves, into a patient observer who waits for specific, high-probability conditions to align before acting. Embracing this philosophy is the first and most crucial step to unlocking the tool's full potential.
Chapter 3: The Engine—Key Features & In-Depth Principles
This section dissects the sophisticated mechanics that power the indicator. Each feature is designed to work in concert, creating a robust and adaptive analytical engine.
Feature 1: Universal Market Adaptability—A Global, Intelligent Tool
A significant weakness of many trading tools is their inherent rigidity. An indicator fine-tuned for the unique volatility profile and session times of the New York open will invariably underperform or provide false signals when applied to the different rhythms of the Indian or Asian markets. Syndicate Bias Universal eradicates this problem with a sophisticated, dual-mode adaptability engine.
Intelligent Auto-Detection: This is the default and recommended setting for most traders. When the "Market Type" input is set to "Auto," the script becomes a dynamic, context-aware tool. It intelligently queries the exchange information (syminfo.prefix) of the instrument you are currently viewing. It automatically recognizes major Indian exchanges (NSE, BSE, MCX) and all other global exchanges. Based on this identification, it seamlessly applies the correct session timing logic—using "Asia/Kolkata" for Indian instruments and "America/New_York" for global instruments (Forex, Commodities, US Equities, etc.).
This allows traders with a diverse watchlist to move effortlessly from analyzing the NIFTY 50 to EUR/USD to Crude Oil, confident that the underlying temporal analysis remains precise, relevant, and correctly calibrated to the dominant trading hours of each asset. There is no need for manual adjustment or multiple chart templates; the indicator handles the complex work of timezone alignment for you.
Focused Manual Override: For the advanced trader, the manual override provides an indispensable layer of analytical control. There are specific scenarios where locking the indicator to a particular time zone, regardless of the asset being viewed, is crucial.
Cross-Market Influence Analysis: A European trader analyzing the DAX index might want to lock the indicator to "Global" (New York) time during the afternoon to see how the US open influences the German market's behavior in its final hours.
Commodity and Forex Trading: A trader in Asia specializing in WTI Crude Oil or Gold knows that these markets are heavily dominated by the New York session. By locking the indicator to "Global," they can apply the correct temporal structure to their analysis, even if their local time is different.
Consistent Strategy Application: A trader who has developed a strategy based purely on the London/New York session overlap can lock the indicator to "Global" and apply this single, consistent framework across any and all instruments they trade.
This dual-mode system ensures that the indicator is both effortlessly simple for those who need it to be and powerfully flexible for those who require granular control.
Feature 2: Fractal Quarter-Based Analysis—Structure at Every Scale
The term "fractal" in market analysis refers to the principle that the same patterns of collective human behavior—driven by greed, fear, hope, and indecision—manifest repeatedly across all timeframes. A pattern that takes months to unfold on a weekly chart can play out in a matter of minutes on a one-minute chart. The Syndicate Bias Universal indicator is built on this very principle, applying its Four-Quarter structure consistently from the highest macro view down to the lowest micro view.
This provides a unified, coherent framework for analysis, regardless of your trading style.
The Weekly Quarter (The Position Trader's View): At this macro level, the trading week is divided into four primary segments (e.g., Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday). This perspective is invaluable for position traders and long-term investors. It helps answer critical strategic questions: Is the week's opening action on Monday establishing a trend that will likely hold, or is it creating the conditions for a mid-week reversal? The weekly quarters help contextualize the larger battle between long-term buyers and sellers.
The Daily Quarter (The Swing Trader's View): Here, the full 24-hour global trading day is partitioned into four 6-hour quarters. This is the ideal lens for swing traders and day traders who aim to capture the dominant move of the day or a multi-day swing. It helps them avoid the morning "chop" by understanding the initial price discovery phase and position themselves for the more decisive moves that often occur in the later quarters of the global session.
Intraday Quarters: 90min, Micro, and Nano (The Day Trader's & Scalper's View): For traders operating on the front lines of intraday price action, the script drills down with surgical precision. It breaks down shorter sessions into their own complete four-quarter cycles. This granular view is essential for timing precise entries, managing trades with tight stop-losses, and understanding the micro-rhythms of order flow. It helps scalpers identify high-probability windows to trade, while allowing them to step back and avoid periods of low liquidity or erratic price action.
To keep you anchored, the script automatically selects and displays the relevant analysis timeframe ("Auto TF") in a non-intrusive display on your chart. This seemingly simple feature is a crucial navigational tool, constantly reminding you of the specific temporal context the engine is currently analyzing, ensuring your decisions are always aligned with the appropriate structural scale.
Feature 3: The "S-Quarter" Timing Window—The Art of Strategic Patience
This is the intellectual core of the indicator and its most powerful feature. It is the mechanism that transforms trading from a constant, stressful hunt for opportunities into a calm, disciplined, and strategic wait. The S-Quarter (Search Quarter) engine enforces patience by activating its search for trade setups only within a specific, algorithmically determined time window.
The Q1 Volatility Profile Analysis: The process begins at the start of a new session. The indicator's logic performs a sophisticated analysis of the price action within the first quarter (Q1). It looks beyond simple direction and evaluates its character. This involves assessing the nature of the opening period's volatility. Is the range expanding or contracting? Is the price action rotational and indecisive, or is it directional and backed by momentum? A quiet, low-volatility Q1 suggests a different market psychology and implies a very different probabilistic path for the rest of the session compared to a strong, high-volume, trend-setting Q1.
Dynamic and Adaptive Window Selection: Based on this nuanced Q1 profile, the script makes a critical, forward-looking determination: which of the subsequent quarters (Q2, Q3, or Q4) is most likely to host a significant market turning point, a liquidity grab, or an exhaustion event. This designated period is the "S-Quarter." The selection is dynamic and adaptive:
If Q1 was a powerful, trending move, the engine might identify Q3 as the S-Quarter, anticipating that the initial momentum will wane, drawing in late trend-followers just in time for a sharp reversal.
If Q1 was a tight, rotational range, the engine might identify Q2 as the S-Quarter, anticipating that the first breakout attempt from this range will likely be a "head fake" designed to trap traders before the real move begins in the opposite direction.
This intelligent selection is what sets the tool apart. It doesn't use a fixed, one-size-fits-all timing window. It adapts its search to the unique, unfolding conditions of each individual trading session. The S-Quarter is the only time the script will actively look for and display trade setups. This powerful filter is the key to mastering trading psychology. It prevents impulsive entries, eliminates the fear of missing out (FOMO), dramatically reduces exposure to choppy and unpredictable market periods, and aligns your actions with the moments of highest probabilistic edge.
Feature 4: Contrarian Reversal Setups—Identifying Market Exhaustion
The setups generated by this indicator are contrarian by design. They are not trend-following signals. They are based on the principle of identifying moments where a prevailing short-term move is reaching a point of exhaustion, often culminating in a "liquidity grab."
The Mechanics of a Liquidity Grab: Within the pre-defined S-Quarter, the script vigilantly monitors short-term market structure, specifically the pivot highs and pivot lows. A break of a recent, significant pivot is a critical event. The script's logic posits that during the S-Quarter, these breakouts are often not the beginning of a sustained new trend. Instead, they are frequently a calculated move by institutional players to "run the stops"—a stop hunt designed to trigger the stop-loss orders of retail traders who are positioned on the wrong side of the market. This action injects a surge of liquidity into the market, which is precisely what larger players need to fill their large orders in the opposite direction.
Bullish Reversal Setup (Fading the Low): This setup is triggered by a break below a recent structural low during the S-Quarter. This event signals that the sellers who pushed the price to a new low may have exhausted their power in the process of running the stops. The trap has been set, and this alert serves as a potential turning point where buyers are likely to step in with force.
Bearish Reversal Setup (Fading the High): This setup is triggered by a break above a recent structural high during the S-Quarter. This suggests that the final, euphoric wave of buying pressure may be culminating in a liquidity grab. The last of the breakout buyers have been drawn in at the worst possible price, presenting an opportunity for informed sellers to take control and initiate a move downwards.
It is absolutely essential to understand that these are high-probability setups, not automated entry signals. They are sophisticated alerts that tell you, "The conditions are now ripe for a potential reversal within our strategic time window." The final decision to execute a trade, and the management of that trade, always rests with you, the trader.
Chapter 4: The Workflow—A Step-by-Step Guide to Practical Application
This section provides a clear, actionable workflow for integrating the Syndicate Bias Universal indicator into your daily trading routine.
Step 1: Initial Configuration (The Pre-Flight Check). Begin by setting the "Market Type." For maximum efficiency across a varied watchlist, leave it on "Auto." If you are a specialist who focuses on one specific market session, manually select "Global" or "Indian" to lock in your preferred analytical framework. Ensure other visual settings, like "Show Active Quarter Boxes," are enabled.
Step 2: Contextualize the Session (Reading the Field). At the start of your trading day, observe the quarter boxes as they begin to form. Pay attention to the story they tell. Is the Q1 box narrow and tight, suggesting indecision? Is it wide and directional, suggesting a strong opening sentiment? This visual context helps you build an intuitive feel for the session's rhythm long before any signal appears.
Step 3: Exercise Strategic Patience (The Professional's Edge). This is the most critical and often the most difficult step. The script will automatically perform its Q1 analysis and silently determine the S-Quarter. Your job is to wait. Resist the urge to trade during the other quarters. This disciplined inaction is not passive; it is an active strategy. It conserves your mental and financial capital for the moments that count the most.
Step 4: The Alert (The Call to Action). When a label—"Look for Bullish/Bearish reversal"—appears on your chart, it is your cue to shift from a passive, observational state to an active, analytical one. This is the moment you have been waiting for. Do not instantly click "buy" or "sell." The alert is a call to focus your attention, not a command to act blindly.
Step 5: The Confirmation Process (Your Personal Edge). The setup is the start, not the end, of your trade analysis. This is where you apply your own skills to confirm the validity of the setup. For example, upon seeing a Bullish Reversal Setup:
Candlestick Analysis: Look for confirmation candles like a powerful bullish engulfing bar, a hammer, or a dragonfly doji forming right after the new low was made.
Volume Analysis: Check if the move to the new low was on high, climactic volume that suddenly dried up, followed by an increase in volume as the price starts to reverse.
Indicator Confluence: Look for bullish divergence on an oscillator like the RSI or MACD, where price makes a new low but the indicator makes a higher low.
This confirmation process is what integrates the indicator into your unique trading style, making it exponentially more powerful.
Step 6: Execute and Manage Risk (The Business of Trading). Once you have your confirmation, execute your trade according to your plan. Risk management is paramount. A logical stop-loss for a Bullish Reversal Setup would typically be placed just below the low of the liquidity grab candle. Your take-profit targets should be based on your analysis of key resistance levels. Always ensure the potential reward of the trade justifies the initial risk. A setup is a probabilistic edge, not a certainty.
Chapter 5: The Trader's Mind—Mastering the Psychology of Time
Integrating this tool effectively is as much about mastering psychology as it is about technical analysis. Its very design encourages the development of a professional trading mindset.
From Impulsive to Patient: The S-Quarter forces you to wait for the market to come to you, curing the impulsive need to be "in a trade" at all times.
From Reactive to Proactive: You are no longer reacting to every price tick. You have a proactive plan: you know which time window you are interested in and what condition you are waiting for. This puts you in a position of mental control.
Building Unshakeable Discipline: By consistently following the framework, you are building the muscle of discipline. You learn that often the most profitable action is no action at all.
Conquering FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out): FOMO is driven by unstructured, random trading. When you know you are only interested in a specific type of setup within a specific time window, the moves that happen outside of that framework become irrelevant noise. You cannot miss a move you were never supposed to take.
Gaining Confidence Through Structure: The clarity and structure provided by the Four-Quarter framework build immense confidence. You are not guessing; you are executing a well-defined plan based on a logical, repeatable methodology.
Chapter 6: Frequently Asked Questions & Scenarios
Q: What happens if no setup appears during the S-Quarter?
A: This is one of the most valuable outcomes the indicator can provide. It means that during the high-probability window, the market did not produce a clear exhaustion or liquidity grab event. The script has effectively told you that the conditions were not optimal for a high-probability reversal, and the correct decision was to preserve your capital. A null signal is a powerful signal in itself.
Q: Can I use this indicator with my existing trend-following strategy?
A: Absolutely. In fact, it's a perfect combination. You can use your macro trend-following tools to establish the dominant weekly or daily direction. Then, you can use the Syndicate Bias Universal indicator on a lower timeframe to look for contrarian setups that signal the end of a pullback, allowing you to enter the trade in the direction of the larger trend at a much better price.
Q: Which analysis timeframe ("Auto TF") is the 'best' one to use?
A: There is no "best" timeframe; there is only the timeframe that is right for your trading style. This is precisely why the fractal design is so powerful. A long-term swing trader might focus primarily on the signals generated by the Daily quarters, while a high-frequency scalper will live within the Micro and Nano quarters. The indicator adapts to you, not the other way around. Experiment and find the resolution that best suits your personality and trading goals.

Previous Day & Week High/Low LevelsPrevious Day & Week High/Low Levels is a precision tool designed to help traders easily identify the most relevant price levels that often act as strong support or resistance areas in the market. It automatically plots the previous day’s and week’s highs and lows, as well as the current day’s developing internal high and low. These levels are crucial reference points for intraday, swing, and even position traders who rely on price action and liquidity behavior.
Key Features
Previous Day High/Low:
The indicator automatically draws horizontal lines marking the highest and lowest prices from the previous trading day.
These levels are widely recognized as potential zones where the market may react again — either rejecting or breaking through them.
Previous Week High/Low:
The script also tracks and displays the high and low from the last completed trading week.
Weekly levels tend to represent stronger liquidity pools and broader institutional zones, which makes them especially important when aligning higher timeframe context with lower timeframe entries.
Internal Daily High/Low (Real-Time Tracking):
While the day progresses, the indicator dynamically updates the current day’s internal high and low.
This allows traders to visualize developing market structure, identify intraday ranges, and anticipate potential breakouts or liquidity sweeps.
Multi-Timeframe Consistency:
All levels — daily and weekly — remain visible across any chart timeframe, from 1 minute to 1 day or higher.
This ensures traders can maintain perspective and avoid losing track of key zones when switching views.
Customizable Visuals:
The colors, line thickness, and label visibility can be easily adjusted to match personal charting preferences.
This makes the indicator adaptable to any trading style or layout, whether minimalistic or detailed.
How to Use
Identify Key Reaction Zones:
Observe how price interacts with the previous day and week levels. Rejections, consolidations, or clean breakouts around these lines often signal strong liquidity areas or potential directional moves.
Combine with Market Structure or Liquidity Concepts:
The indicator works perfectly with supply and demand analysis, liquidity sweeps, order block strategies, or simply classic support/resistance techniques.
Scalping and Intraday Trading:
On lower timeframes (1m–15m), the daily levels help identify intraday turning points.
On higher timeframes (1h–4h or daily), the weekly levels provide broader context and directional bias.
Risk Management and Planning:
Using these levels as reference points allows for more precise stop placement, target setting, and overall trade management.
Why This Indicator Helps
Markets often react strongly around previous highs and lows because these zones contain trapped liquidity, pending orders, or institutional decision points.
By having these areas automatically mapped out, traders gain a clear and objective view of where price is likely to respond — without needing to manually draw lines every day or week.
Whether you’re a beginner still learning about price structure, or an advanced trader refining entries within liquidity zones, this tool simplifies the process and keeps your charts clean, consistent, and data-driven.
ICT Complex[Iss2k]📘 ICT Complex — Smart Money Concepts Indicator
Overview
The ICT Complex indicator is a comprehensive Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT-based analysis tool designed to visualize institutional trading concepts such as Order Blocks, Liquidity Voids, Swing Structure, and Market Direction.
It combines multiple elements from the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology to help traders identify potential market reversals, liquidity grabs, and premium/discount trading zones.
🧩 Main Features
1. Order Blocks (OB)
Automatically detects bullish and bearish order blocks based on pivot highs and lows.
Displays order block zones as colored boxes (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Optional auto-deletion: an OB zone disappears once price breaks through it.
Zones are confirmed (locked) when retested, providing confluence for trade entries.
2. Swing Highs & Lows (Market Structure)
Detects swing highs (SH) and swing lows (SL) to visualize market structure shifts.
Draws horizontal lines at each confirmed swing point.
When price breaks above a swing high or below a swing low, the indicator signals potential bullish or bearish market structure shifts (MSS).
3. Liquidity Voids (Imbalances / Fair Value Gaps)
Identifies liquidity voids (imbalances) — areas where price moved too quickly and left inefficiency in the market.
Marks these zones with transparent colored boxes:
🟩 Green for bullish voids
🟥 Red for bearish voids
Can optionally label each void for better visualization.
4. Trend Confirmation (EMA 200)
Includes an EMA200 trend filter to identify overall market direction.
The EMA line changes color:
🟩 Green when trending up
🟥 Red when trending down
Used to filter signals in the direction of institutional order flow.
5. DI Strength & Candle Coloring
Uses a modified Directional Index (DI) to color candles based on strength and direction:
🟩 Green = bullish momentum
🟥 Red = bearish momentum
🟪 Purple = neutral
6. Range Filter Logic
A smoothed range filter helps confirm breakout conditions and trend continuation.
Generates Buy (A / A+) or Sell (A / A+) labels when market structure and filter direction align.
Displays real-time peak profit tracking, showing how far price has moved from the entry signal in percentage.
7. Alerts
Configurable Buy and Sell alerts when valid signals are confirmed on the bar close.
💡 How to Use
Apply the indicator to any timeframe (best results on 15m–4h).
Use Order Blocks and Liquidity Voids to identify institutional areas of interest.
Wait for structure shifts (SH/SL breaks) to confirm direction.
Filter trades with EMA200 and Range Filter signals.
Use Buy/Sell alerts as confirmations, not standalone signals.
⚙️ Customization Options
Toggle visibility for each feature: Order Blocks, Liquidity Voids, Swing Signals, Range Labels, etc.
Adjust sensitivity for swing detection and liquidity voids.
Change colors and maximum number of visual elements to suit your chart style.
📈 Summary
The ICT Complex indicator provides an all-in-one framework for Smart Money trading analysis.
It helps traders understand how institutional liquidity, order flow, and market structure interact — aligning your trades with the principles of ICT and Smart Money Concepts.
Khosro XAUUSD Strategy [TradingFinder] Trading Room Hunter Setup🔵 Introduction
The Trading Room Hunter (TRH) strategy is an analytical model based on the Smart Money Concept, developed by Khosro, an Iranian international trader based in Dubai. This approach is built upon a deep understanding of liquidity engineering, market structure shifts, and institutional order flow. Its core objective is to identify the so-called TRH Zone, the area where market liquidity gets trapped and institutional investors begin accumulating positions. Unlike traditional indicator-based methods, the TRH Zone focuses purely on price behavior and supply & demand dynamics to pinpoint the most precise reversal zones in the market.
Within Smart Money logic, every impulsive move in price results from the displacement or absorption of liquidity in a specific range. In the TRH model, the last pivot preceding the impulsive move (Origin Pivot) is defined as the Distal Line, and the Break Candle, which disrupts the market structure, forms the Proximal Line. The area between these two points defines the Trading Room Hunter Zone, a reaction zone where price, after creating a displacement or Break of Structure (BoS), often returns to fill an imbalance and provide a precision entry opportunity.
In essence, the TRH Zone is the region where smart money seeks re-entry after a liquidity sweep and a confirmed CHoCH or BoS. It frequently lies between supply/demand boundaries and fair value gaps (FVGs), forming one of the strongest decision-making frameworks within modern price-action theory. Due to its structural accuracy, the TRH setup can also function as a Set & Forget Setup, where the trader defines the zone, places a limit order, and lets the market naturally react, eliminating emotional decision-making and allowing for automated execution aligned with institutional logic.
🔵 How to Use
In the TRH strategy, entries are taken based on price returning to the area between the last impulsive pivot and the break candle. This range (the TRH Zone) represents the region where liquidity from the previous move remains concentrated. Before continuing its main direction, price often revisits this zone to fill imbalances or mitigate unfilled orders. The logic is simple: every explosive move originates from a point where large orders were executed, and TRH precisely highlights that institutional footprint.
🟣 Bullish Setup
When the market breaks a structural high after a strong bearish leg, liquidity shifts from sellers to buyers. The last bearish candle before the breakout marks the origin of the bullish move, and the zone between that candle and the break candle becomes the smart-money entry area. As price revisits this zone and signs of exhaustion in selling pressure appear, that’s the optimal point for a long position. Stop-loss is placed slightly below the origin pivot, and targets are set at the next supply zone or upper liquidity pool.
🟣 Bearish Setup
Conversely, when the market breaks a structural low after a sharp bullish leg, liquidity transitions from buyers to sellers. The last bullish candle before the drop is identified as the origin pivot, while the bearish break candle defines the lower boundary of the zone. The range between these two points forms the TRH Supply Zone, where late buyers are trapped and fresh institutional selling begins. As price retraces into this zone, short entries can be placed near the upper boundary, with stops above the pivot and targets toward the next liquidity pool below.
Because of its structural precision and clearly defined reaction behavior, TRH is one of the most effective Set & Forget setups in Smart Money trading. Simply mark the zone, place your order, and let the market do the rest.
🔵Setting
🟣 Spike Filter | Movement
Minimum Spike Bars : Defines the minimum number of consecutive candles required for a valid spike.
Movement Power : Enables or disables the momentum-based spike filter.
Movement Power Level : Sets the strength threshold; higher values filter out weaker moves and only detect strong spikes.
Pivot Period : Defines the lookback range used to detect swing highs and swing lows in market structure. A higher value smooths out smaller fluctuations and focuses on major pivots, while a lower value increases sensitivity and identifies minor turning points more frequently.
🟣 Position Management
Stop-Loss Threshold : Enables or disables the stop-loss threshold feature.
Stop-Loss Threshold Value : Defines the value of the stop-loss threshold for risk management.
Risk-Reward Ratio : Sets the desired risk-to-reward ratio (e.g., 1:1 or 1:2).
Wide Zone Filter : Filters out zones that exceed a defined width threshold, preventing detection of overly broad TRH areas.
🟣 Display Settings
Display Mode : Chooses between Setup (showing setups) or Signal (showing trade signals).
Show Entry Levels : Displays entry levels on the chart (buy/sell zones) when enabled
Only Display the Last Position : Displays only the most recent position on the chart when enabled.
Setup Width Drawing : Adjusts the visual width of the setup drawings on the chart for better visibility.
🔵 Conclusion
The TRH strategy is a precise structural model of liquidity flow that identifies zones where smart money is most likely to enter and where price is most likely to react. By combining the Origin Pivot and Break Candle, TRH isolates the key areas that drive institutional order flow. Without relying on indicators, it focuses purely on price structure, making it highly effective for both reactive entries and Set & Forget setups.
Ultimately, TRH creates a balance between market structure and liquidity flow, enabling traders to identify institutional decision zones on the chart with minimal risk and maximum clarity

Hotzones EssentialsThe Hotzones essentials kit combines key price action principles into a single kit. These features come together to form a unique approach to price action trading.
The Killzone Blocks are a precision-engineered market-mapping system designed to identify high-liquidity price regions zones where institutional participants and smart money are most likely to interact. These areas often act as reaction points , where liquidity absorption, reversals, or continuation moves are started. By highlighting these zones, traders can potentially anticipate market intent and position themselves accordingly with greater confidence.
Shown above is are Killzone Blocks highlighting their strength and deltas.
Killzone Blocks are dynamically generated from significant structural shifts in the market where key areas where order flow and volume imbalance indicate a change in control between buyers and sellers. Each block represents a localized liquidity pocket, allowing users to visualize potential killzones which are regions where price is statistically more likely to bounce, reject, or consolidate before choosing direction.
The algorithm continuously tracks structural breaks , pivot reactions , and volume clustering to ensure that every block represents a meaningful, data-driven region rather than random candle overlap.
Volume and Delta Analysis
Each Killzone Block carries an advanced volume breakdown that quantifies order-flow dynamics within the zone.
Volume Data: Displays both bullish and bearish volume as a percentage of the total block volume, quantifying buying vs. selling intensity and helping traders gauge whether the zone was dominated by aggressive buyers or sellers.
Gray Text (Order Block Volume Type): Shows metrics specific to the block’s nature.
Bearish Blocks: Display only the bear volume (sell pressure) as a percentage of total OB volume.
Bullish Blocks: Display only the bull volume (buy pressure) as a percentage of total OB volume.
This separation removes noise and helps traders focus on which participant truly dominated the zone.
Each block also features a Delta Indicator which is a color-coded circle offering instant insight into which side of the market was in control:
🔴 Red: Strong negative delta (-100% to -20%) = Sellers dominated.
🟡 Yellow: Neutral delta (-10% to +10%) = Market in balance or absorption.
🔵 Blue: Strong positive delta (+20% to +100%) = Buyers dominated.
The delta represents the difference between buyer and seller volume within that block. A positive delta indicates aggressive buying absorption , while a negative delta suggests sell-side control .
Shown above we see a very small delta with neutral volume. This is a very balanced market zone where we might be less likely to see a reaction.
Customization and Inputs
Users can tailor the Killzone Blocks to suit their analysis style:
* Adjust the displayed block count to view short-term or long-term structures.
* Choose whether zones are drawn from wicks or bodies . Wick-based zones are more reactive to intraday liquidity hunts, while body-based zones reflect institutional candle closings and conviction.
Killzone Levels
Killzone Levels expand on the concept of liquidity mapping by plotting the most influential horizontal levels in the market daily, weekly, and monthly highs and lows . These levels represent major liquidity pools where large clusters of stop orders, breakout triggers, and institutional re-entries often occur.
Users can customize every visual aspect of these levels, including color, style, and line thickness if needed.
These levels are crucial because markets tend to gravitate toward previous highs and lows to collect liquidity before reversing or extending the trend. Daily levels act as intraday targets, weekly levels provide swing and mid-term context, and monthly levels define macro liquidity boundaries where institutional flows are concentrated.
When a Killzone Block aligns with a Killzone Level ; for example, a bullish block forming near a weekly low, it creates strong confluence and raises the probability of a meaningful reaction. Together, these levels transform simple horizontal lines into dynamic zones of opportunity.
Open Range Breakout
The Open Range Breakout feature identifies the first major liquidity window of each trading session, often referred to as the opening range or killzone window . This range is defined by the high and low formed within a user-defined session time (for example, 08:00–08:45 for the London session).
Shown above is a breakout of a range.
Once the window closes, the system locks in the session’s high and low, marking the balance point of early order flow. From this moment, price action is monitored in real time:
- A break above the high generates a bullish breakout signal , confirming buyer control.
- A break below the low generates a bearish breakout signal , confirming seller dominance.
To enhance accuracy, the feature includes a Level 2 Confirmation setting. Rather than triggering on a wick or brief spike, this level confirms a breakout only when a full candle closes outside the open range . This ensures signals reflect genuine intent and continuation pressure instead of short-term liquidity sweeps.
Seen above is confluence between a retest of a zone and a breakout.
Traders use the Open Range Breakout to establish session bias ; whether the market is trending bullish or bearish for that specific session. Combined with Killzone Blocks and Levels, it forms a complete confluence system for identifying direction, gauging strength, and mapping high-probability reaction zones.
Overall this toolkit provides 3 unique tools that come together to form powerful confluence and deeper insights into volume and price action.

CMC Macro Regime PanelOverview (what it is):
A macro‑regime gate built entirely from TradingView-native symbols (CRYPTOCAP, FRED, DXY/VIX, HYG/LQD). It aggregates central‑bank liquidity (Fed balance sheet − RRP − Treasury General Account), USD strength, credit conditions, stablecoin flows/dominance, tech beta and BTC–NDX co‑move into one normalized score (CLRC). The panel outputs Risk‑ON/OFF regimes, an Early 3/5 pre‑signal, and an automatic BTC vs ETH vs ALTs preference. It is intentionally scoped to Daily & Weekly reads (no intraday timing). Publish with a clean chart and a clear description as per TradingView rules.
TradingView
Why we also use other TradingView screens (and why that is compliant)
This script pulls data via request.security() from official TV symbols only; users often want to open the raw series on separate charts to sanity‑check:
CRYPTOCAP indices: TOTAL, TOTAL2, TOTAL3 (market cap aggregates) and dominance tickers like BTC.D, USDT.D. Helpful for regime & rotation (ALTs vs BTC). TradingView provides definitions for crypto market cap and dominance symbols.

How it works (high level)
Liquidity block (Weekly/Monthly)
Net Liquidity = WALCL − RRPONTSYD − WTREGEN (YoY z‑score). WALCL is weekly (as of Wednesday) via H.4.1; RRP is daily; TGA is a Fed liability series. M2 YoY is monthly.

What you see on the chart
White line (CLRC) = macro regime score.
Background: Green = Risk‑ON, Red = Risk‑OFF, Teal = Early 3/5 (pre‑signal).
Table: shows each component’s z‑score and the Preference: BTC / ETH / ALTs / Mixed.
Signals & interpretation
Designed for Daily (1D) and Weekly (1W) only.
Regime gates (default Fast preset):
Enter ON: CLRC ≥ +0.8; Hold ON while ≥ +0.5.
Enter OFF: CLRC ≤ −1.0; Hold OFF while ≤ −0.5.
0 / ±1 reading: CLRC is a standardized composite.
~0 = neutral baseline (no macro edge).
≥ +1 = strong macro tailwind (≈ +1σ).
≤ −1 = strong headwind (≈ −1σ).
Early 3/5 (teal): a fast pre‑signal when at least 3 of 5 daily checks align: USDT.D↓, DXY↓, VIX↓, HYG/LQD↑, ETHBTC↑ or TOTAL3↑. It often precedes a full ON flip—use for pre‑positioning rather than full sizing.
BTC/ETH/ALTs selector (only when ON):
ALTs when BTC.D↓ and (ETHBTC↑ or TOTAL3↑) ⇒ rotate down the risk curve.
BTC when BTC.D↑ and ETHBTC↓ ⇒ keep it concentrated.
ETH when ETHBTC↑ while BTC.D flat/up ⇒ add ETH beta.
(Dominance mechanics are documented by TV.)
TradingView
Dissonance (incompatibility) rules — when to stand down
Use these overrides to avoid false comfort:
CLRC > +1 but USDT.D↑ and/or VIX spikes day‑over‑day → downgrade to Neutral; wait for USDT.D to stabilize and VIX to cool (VIX is a fear gauge of 30‑day expectation).
Cboe Global Markets
CLRC > +1 but DXY↑ sharply (USD squeeze) → size below normal; require DXY momentum to roll over.
CLRC < −1 but Early 3/5 = true two days in a row → start reducing underweights; look for ON flip within a few bars.
NetLiq improving (W) but credit (HYG/LQD) deteriorating (D) → treat as mixed regime; prefer BTC over ALTs.
How to use (step‑by‑step)
A. Read on Daily (1D) — main regime
Open CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL3, 1D (panel applied).
Wait for bar close (use alerts on confirmed bar). Pine docs recommend barstate.isconfirmed to avoid repainting on realtime bars.
TradingView
If ON, check Preference (BTC / ETH / ALTs).
Then drop to 4H on your trading pair for micro entries (this indicator itself is not for intraday timing).
B. Confirm weekly macro (1W) — once per week)
Review WALCL/RRP/TGA after the H.4.1 release on Thursdays ~4:30 pm ET. WALCL is “Weekly, as of Wednesday”; M2 is Monthly—so do not expect daily responsiveness from these.

Recommended check times (practical schedule)
Daily regime read: right after your chart’s daily close (confirmed bar). For consistent timing across crypto, many users set chart timezone to UTC and read ~00:05 UTC; you can change chart timezone in TV’s settings.
TradingView
In‑day monitoring: optional spot checks 16:00 & 20:00 UTC (DXY/VIX move during US hours), but act only after the daily bar confirms.
Weekly macro pass: Thu 21:30–22:30 UTC (after H.4.1 4:30 pm ET) or Fri after daily close, to let weekly FRED series propagate.
Federal Reserve
Limitations & data latency (be explicit)
Higher‑TF data & confirmation: FRED weekly/monthly series will not reflect intraday risk in crypto; we aggregate them for regime, not for entry timing.
Repainting 101: Realtime bars move until close. This script does not use lookahead and follows Pine guidance on multi‑TF series; still, always act on confirmed bars.
TradingView
+1
Public‑library compliance: Title EN‑only; description starts in EN; clean chart; justify component mash‑up; no lookahead; no unrealistic claims.
TradingView
Alerts you can use
“Macro Risk‑ON (entry)” — fires on ON flip (confirmed bar).
“Macro Risk‑OFF (entry)” — fires on OFF flip.
“Early 3/5” — fires when the teal pre‑signal appears (not a regime flip).
“Preference change” — BTC/ETH/ALTs toggles while ON.
Publish note: Alerts are fine; just avoid implying guaranteed accuracy/performance.
TradingView
Background research (why these inputs matter)
Liquidity → Crypto: Fed H.4.1 timing and series definitions (WALCL, RRP, TGA) formalize the “net liquidity” concept used here.

Stablecoins ↔ Non‑stable crypto: empirical work shows bi‑directional causality between stablecoin market cap and non‑stable crypto cap; stablecoin growth co‑moves with broader crypto activity.
Global liquidity link: world liquidity positively relates to total crypto market cap; lagged effects are observed at monthly horizons.
VIX/Uncertainty effect: fear shocks impair BTC’s “safe haven” behavior; VIX is a meaningful risk‑off read.
LQ sweep (DeadCat)This indicator provides a streamlined approach to Smart Money Concepts (SMC) market structure analysis, focusing on identifying liquidity sweep patterns at key structural levels. The script tracks price action to detect when institutional liquidity is being targeted through systematic structure breaks.
Core Methodology:
The indicator employs a dual-pivot system (20/2 bars) to identify market structure points internally, then monitors for liquidity sweeps at these levels:
Trend Continuation Sweeps: When price breaks above Higher Highs (uptrend) or below Lower Lows (downtrend)
Trend Reversal Sweeps: When price breaks below Higher Lows (uptrend) or above Lower Highs (downtrend)
Market Structure Engine:
Automatically establishes initial trend direction from first two pivot points
Tracks structure progression internally without visual clutter
Requires 2-candle confirmation (bullish/bearish) before finalizing new structure levels
Maintains pending structure states until proper confirmation occurs
Liquidity Sweep Detection:
The indicator identifies four distinct liquidity sweep scenarios:
Bullish Continuation: HH break in established uptrend
Bearish Continuation: LL break in established downtrend
Bullish Reversal: LH break signaling potential uptrend resumption
Bearish Reversal: HL break signaling potential downtrend resumption
Key Features:
Simplified Interface: Single settings group for all liquidity sweep configurations
Flexible Label Positioning: Choose where sweep labels appear on lines
Consistent Visual Style: All sweeps use the same color/style for clarity
Minimal Chart Clutter: No market structure labels, only essential sweep markers
Unique Implementation:
Unlike traditional SMC indicators that display all structure points, this tool focuses exclusively on actionable liquidity sweeps. It maintains the mathematical rigor of structure tracking internally while presenting only the critical sweep levels where institutional activity is likely concentrated.
Usage:
Liquidity sweeps often precede significant moves as they represent areas where stop-losses accumulate. Traders can use these levels to:
- Identify potential reversal zones after sweep completion
- Spot continuation patterns when sweeps align with trend
- Time entries after liquidity has been collected
- Set stop-loss levels beyond recent sweep points
This indicator simplifies complex SMC concepts into actionable liquidity sweep signals, making it suitable for traders who want to focus on key institutional levels without overwhelming chart analysis.
