FVG 9:31–10:00 AM ETFVG 9:31–10:00 AM ET - Script Description
What This Script Does
This indicator finds **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)** that form during the first 29 minutes of the U.S. stock market (9:31 AM to 10:00 AM Eastern Time). A Fair Value Gap is a price imbalance where there's a gap between candles that often becomes an important support or resistance level.
Key Features:
- **Time Window**: Only looks for FVGs between 9:31-10:00 AM ET (most important opening period)
- **One Per Day**: Finds only the first FVG that forms in this time window each day
- **Visual Display**: Draws a purple box around the gap with a clear "FVG" label
- **Price Tracking**: Monitors when price comes back to test the gap level
- **Alert System**: Sends notifications when price returns to the FVG zone
How FVGs Are Detected:
- **Bullish FVG**: When there's a gap up (low of middle candle is above high of 3rd candle back)
- **Bearish FVG**: When there's a gap down (high of middle candle is below low of 3rd candle back)
The 9:31-10:00 AM window is chosen because this is when institutions and algorithms create their biggest price moves right after market open, making these gaps very reliable.

Setup
Chart Settings
1. Use 1-minute, 5-minute, or 15-minute charts (works best on these timeframes)
2. Apply to liquid markets like ES, NQ, major stocks, or forex pairs
3. Set the "Extend FVG Box" to your preference (start with 0 or 10)
What You'll See
- A purple box appears when an FVG forms during 9:31-10:00 AM
- Box shows the exact price levels of the gap
- "FVG" label appears on the box
- Only one FVG per day will be marked
Trading Strategies
Basic FVG Trading
1. **Wait for Formation**: Let the purple box appear during 9:31-10:00 AM
2. **Watch Price Movement**: See if price moves away from the gap
3. **Enter on Retest**: When price comes back to the purple box area, consider entering
4. **Trade Direction**:
- Bullish FVG = look for long opportunities when price retests
- Bearish FVG = look for short opportunities when price retests
Entry Methods
- **Bounce Play**: Enter when price touches the FVG box and bounces away
- **Break Play**: Enter if price strongly breaks through the FVG box
- **Rejection Play**: Enter opposite direction if price gets rejected at the FVG
Risk Management
Stop Losses
- Place stops just outside the FVG box (a few ticks beyond the gap)
- If trading a bounce, stop goes on opposite side of the gap
- If trading a break, stop goes back inside the gap
Position Sizing
- Start small until you understand how FVGs work in your market
- Bigger gaps = smaller position size (more risk)
- Smaller gaps = can use larger position size
Profit Targets
- Take profits at obvious levels like round numbers, previous highs/lows
- Consider taking half profits at 1:1 risk/reward ratio
- Let some position run if the move is strong
Best Practices
When It Works Best
- High-volume stocks and futures (ES, NQ work great)
- Normal market days without major news during the 9:31-10:00 window
- When there's clear institutional activity in the opening period
When to Be Careful
- Low-volume stocks or markets
- Major economic news releases during the time window
- Market holidays when volume is low
- Very choppy or sideways days
Alert Usage
- The script will alert you when price comes back to test the FVG
- Don't trade the alert blindly - always check the current market situation
- Use the alert as a heads-up to start watching the setup more closely
Tips for Success
- The earlier the FVG forms in the 9:31-10:00 window, often the more significant it is
- FVGs that form with high volume are usually more reliable
- Always consider the overall market direction - don't fight the main trend
- Practice on paper first to understand how FVGs behave in your chosen market

Sweep Swing Screener [TradingFinder]🔵 Introduction
Understanding how liquidity forms and how price reacts around key structural levels is essential for identifying precise, low-risk entry points. The Sweep Swing Screener is a specialized tool developed to continuously monitor market activity and detect liquidity sweeps, reaction zones, and valid confirmation candles across various trading instruments and timeframes.
This tool can be applied both to scan multiple symbols at once and to analyze all timeframes of a specific asset for potential reversal points. It begins by identifying a clear swing point, whether a swing high or a swing low, and then outlines a reaction zone between that level and either the highest or lowest value of the swing candle's open or close.
If the price revisits this zone, performs a liquidity grab, and prints an indecision candle like a doji or a narrow-bodied bar that closes within the zone, this may indicate a rejection of the level and the failure of a breakout attempt. At that moment, depending on the context, the screener may identify a bullish or bearish reversal and generate a corresponding Long or Short signal.
By emphasizing accurate entry timing, alignment with institutional order flow, and avoidance of common traps, this approach highlights market areas where liquidity engineering, reversal probability, and price inefficiency come together. As a result, the Sweep Swing Screener becomes a valuable part of any trader’s toolkit, particularly for those who rely on price action and liquidity logic to drive their decisions. It allows traders to focus on clean, actionable setups without getting lost in noise or misleading breakouts.
🔵 How to Use
The Sweep Swing Screener is designed to track market structure in real time and alert users when conditions for a potential reversal are present. Its methodology combines liquidity behavior with swing analysis and candle confirmation, all within predefined reaction zones.
To better understand this logic, consider a basic market flow where a swing high or low forms, followed by a return to that level. If the price sweeps the previous extreme and forms a confirming candle within the reaction zone, a signal is issued.
🟣 Long Signal
To identify a long setup, the screener looks for a valid swing low, often a level below which sell-side liquidity is likely to be clustered. Once found, it defines a reaction zone from the swing low to the lowest point between the candle’s open and close.
If the price returns to this area and creates a lower wick that extends beneath the swing low, the tool checks whether the price manages to close back inside the range, rejecting the breakdown. This indicates absorption of selling pressure and failure to sustain the move lower.
The screener then waits for a confirmation candle to appear. Typically, this is a doji or other small-bodied candle that closes inside the zone. If these conditions are met, the screener records a Long signal for that asset and, if enabled, sends a notification to alert the user.
🟣 Short Signal
For bearish setups, the screener begins by identifying a valid swing high, which usually marks a level where buy-side liquidity is concentrated. It then creates a reaction zone from the swing high to the highest point between the candle’s open and close.
When price returns to this level, sweeps above the swing high, and then fails to close higher, it may signal the presence of a bull trap and early exhaustion in the upward move.
A confirmation candle, usually a doji or a rejection bar that closes back within the zone, is then required. Once that occurs, the screener marks the asset with a Short signal and optionally sends a real-time alert to the user.
This type of setup helps highlight potential institutional sell zones, offering insight into where price is likely to reverse following a liquidity event.

🔵 Conclusion
The Sweep Swing Screener provides a systematic method for identifying potential reversal zones by combining price structure, liquidity behavior, and candle-based confirmation. In markets that are often noisy and full of failed breakouts, focusing on these three elements helps clarify directional bias and supports more confident decision-making.
With the ability to scan multiple symbols and timeframes efficiently, this tool allows traders to stay focused on high-quality setups without the need to manually sift through dozens of charts. The inclusion of optional alerts further enhances its utility by offering timely updates when criteria are met.
By moving away from reactive strategies and toward structural anticipation, this screener supports traders who align their methods with institutional logic and the mechanics of smart money.

Market Shift Levels [ChartPrime]Market Shift Levels
This indicator detects trend shifts and visualizes key market structure turning points using Hull Moving Average logic. It highlights potential areas of support and resistance where price is likely to react, empowering traders to spot early trend transitions.
Market Shift Levels are horizontal zones that mark the moment of a directional change in market behavior. These shifts are based on crossovers between two smoothed Hull Moving Averages (HMA), allowing the indicator to detect potential reversals with minimal lag.
Once a shift is detected:
A dashed horizontal Market Shift Level is plotted at the low (for bullish shift) or high (for bearish shift) of the candle.
These levels often become key reaction points during pullbacks and trend retests.
Volume or price labels are added when price wicks into these levels, helping traders gauge the strength of rejection or acceptance.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Uses HMA-based logic to detect when price momentum shifts.
Plots clean Market Shift Levels (MSLs) that act as dynamic support and resistance.
Automatically colors bars and candles based on the price positioning relative to levels.
Labels wick-based retests with either:
Volume data of the 3-bar cluster (default).
Price level if toggled.
⯁ HOW TO USE
Look for trend shifts where the HMA crossover triggers a new level — this marks a possible structural pivot .
Use the horizontal level as a dynamic support or resistance zone — especially when price returns with wick rejections.
Watch for volume labels near the level — higher values signal stronger rejection and potential continuation.
Combine with confluence tools like Smart Money concepts or Fibonacci levels for added edge.
⯁ EXAMPLE SETUPS
After a bullish shift, wait for price to return and wick into the level — if volume spikes and candle closes strong, it’s a retest confirmation entry .
After a bearish shift, bearish wick rejections with volume may signal short re-entry zones .
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Market Shift Levels indicator offers a visual and data-backed approach to spotting trend reversals and critical retest zones. It’s a simple yet powerful tool to structure your trades around objective, repeatable market behavior — all in real-time.
Supply & Demand (OTC)Supply & Demand - Advanced Zone Detection
Overview
This indicator is a sophisticated tool designed to automatically identify and draw high-probability supply and demand zones on your chart. It analyzes pure price action to find key areas where institutional buying and selling pressure has previously occurred, providing you with a clear map of potential market turning points.
Unlike basic supply and demand indicators, this script is built with a proprietary engine that intelligently defines zone boundaries and filters for the most relevant price action patterns. It's designed to be a clean, professional, and highly customizable tool for traders who use supply and demand as a core part of their strategy.
Features
Advanced Zone Detection: Automatically finds and draws supply and demand zones based on significant price imbalances.
Reversal & Continuation Patterns: Identifies all four major price action patterns: Rally-Base-Drop (RBD), Drop-Base-Rally (DBR), Rally-Base-Rally (RBR), and Drop-Base-Drop (DBD).
"Level on Level" (LoL) Analysis: Automatically detects and labels zones that are stacked closely together, highlighting areas of potentially high liquidity and significance.
Wider vs. Preferred Zones: Choose between two zone definition modes. "Wider" mode draws the zone based on the full range of the consolidation, while "Preferred" mode refines the entry line based on key price action within the base, offering more precision.
Smart Zone Display: Intelligently displays only the most relevant zones closest to the current price, keeping your chart clean and focused. Supply zones above the current price and demand zones below are automatically prioritized and displayed based on your settings.
Customizable Zone Interaction: Control how zones react after being tested. Zones can change color on a first touch and be automatically deleted after a significant violation, which you can define by a percentage.
Customizable Visuals & Alerts: Fully customize the colors of all zones and candles. Enable or disable alerts for new zone creation and zone touches to stay on top of market movements.
How to Use
Identify Zones: The indicator will automatically plot supply zones (red) above the price and demand zones (green) below the price. These are potential areas to look for trade entries.
Assess Zone Strength: The strongest zones are typically "fresh" (untouched) and are formed by a strong, explosive move away from a tight consolidation (a small number of base candles).
Use Labels for Context: The floating labels (RBD, DBR, RBR (LoL), etc.) provide immediate context about the price action structure that formed each zone. "LoL" indicates a "Level on Level" zone, which may be of higher importance.
Wait for Confirmation: For the highest probability setups, wait for the price to return to a zone and show signs of rejection (e.g., reversal candlestick patterns) before considering an entry.
Settings Overview
Zone Definition: Control the core logic, such as including continuation patterns, setting the max number of base candles, and choosing between Wider and Preferred zone types.
Zone Display & Limits: Toggle limits on or off, and specify the maximum number of supply and demand zones to show on the chart.
Zone Interaction: Define how zones react to being tested, including the percentage required to delete a zone.
Colors & Style: Fully customize the appearance of zones, labels, and price candles.
Alerts: Enable or disable alerts for key events.

Protected Pivots Points by RiotwolftradingProtected Pivots Points by Riotwolftrading
---
You have an advanced visual tool designed for traders who want to identify and manage key price levels with maximum precision.
This script detects protected pivots (significant highs and lows) and marks them with horizontal lines on the chart. These lines automatically extend for a fixed number of bars or until price invalidates the level with a closing break.
---
🚀 What makes this indicator special?
---
✅ Protected pivot detection:
The indicator identifies protected highs and lows using a fixed pivot strength
✅ Wick break detection (liquidity sweep visualization):
When a wick crosses the pivot level **without the candle closing beyond the level, the indicator automatically changes the line’s color and style.
👉 This immediately shows the trader that the level was tested but remains structurally valid.
✅ Highly customizable visuals:
* Choose whether to show color for protected highs, lows, or wick break levels.
* Set your own colors, line styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and line widths.
---
### 🌟 Why is wick break detection so valuable?
---
💡 Instant context on price action:
No need to manually check every candle to see if a level was barely tested. The indicator changes the line’s appearance automatically, so you can focus on decisions.
💡 Clear distinction between untouched levels and tested levels:
* A level with no wick test is pristine support/resistance.
* A level tested by a wick but not invalidated is still valid — but may have been swept for liquidity.
💡 Crucial for precision trading strategies:
This is particularly important for strategies that rely on:
✅ Liquidity sweeps / stop hunts.
✅ Reversals from tested zones.
✅ Smart Money Concepts (SMC).
✅ ICT concepts, breakers, Quasimodo, BOS/MSS.
The wick break visualization helps filter false breakouts and highlights areas where institutional players may have stepped in.
💡 Avoid premature exits or entries:**
The color/style change tells you a level was tested but not broken, so you avoid overreacting to wick activity.
---
### ⚡ Example use case**
Imagine a protected low line:
🔹 Price dips and its wick touches the level — the line changes color (e.g. violet solid line).
🔹 The level is still valid because the close didn’t break it.
🔹 This could signal a stop hunt or liquidity grab, with a possible reversal opportunity right at that level.
---
### 🧭 **Why most pivot indicators don’t offer this**
Most pivot indicators:
❌ Simply mark the level and remove it after a close break.
❌ Don’t distinguish between a wick test and a true break.
🌟 **This indicator does — giving traders an extra layer of market insight.**
---
### ⚠ **Disclaimer**
This indicator is a visual aid to help identify key levels and price reactions. It does **not** generate buy or sell signals and should be used alongside your trading analysis and strategy.

BOS mark-out (by Lumiere)Advanced BOS Detection with Strict Swing Confirmation
This indicator implements BOS detection with several unique features:
🔹 Dual-Candle Swing Validation - Unlike most BOS indicators that use single candle swings, this uses a two-candle confirmation for swing highs/lows, analyzing both the candle wicks and body transitions.
🔹 Directional Lock System - Implements a state machine that prevents duplicate signals until an opposite-direction BOS occurs, reducing noise.
🔹 Precision Wick Analysis - Compares wicks between the reversal candle and confirmation candle to identify the true swing point.
🔹 Real-Time Update & Live Market Adaptation – The indicator continuously monitors price action and instantly updates BOS signals as new candles form, ensuring you never miss a BOS.
How It Differs From Other BOS Indicators:
Most public BOS indicators use simple HH/HL or LH/LL detection.
Many don't implement the directional locking mechanism.
Few use the two-candle wick comparison approach.
Wick-Based Precision uses the extreme wicks of two candles (not just the body).
Strict Confirmation requires a close beyond the swing point (no "wick breaks" counted).
Usage Examples:
🟦 Bullish BOS:
A green candle closes, followed by a red candle. This will be the new high, and if the next candle closes above the highest wick of those two, it will be a BOS (only if we had a bearish BOS before)
🟥 Bearish BOS:
A red candle closes, followed by a green candle. This will be the new low, and if the next candle closes below the lowest wick of those two, it will be a BOS (only if we had a Bullish BOS before)

Power of Three FractalsIntroducing Power of Three Fractals—an advanced, all-in-one TradingView toolkit designed to bring higher timeframe context directly onto your primary chart. This isn't just another candle overlay; it's a sophisticated analytical suite built for the serious price action trader. Developed with the core principles of "smart money" concepts, this indicator helps you see the market in a new dimension.
Key Features:
Floating Candlestick Display:
Forget cluttered chart backgrounds. Power of Three Fractals displays your chosen higher timeframe candles as a clean, stylized series of candlesticks in a dedicated space on the right side of your chart, allowing you to analyze HTF structure without losing focus on live price action.
Intelligent Adaptive Timeframe:
This is a game-changer. If you set the indicator to show 4H candles but switch your main chart to the Daily, it won't produce an error. Instead, it automatically adapts, recognizing the invalid selection and seamlessly switching to display the next logical timeframe (e.g., Weekly candles). This provides a flawless analytical experience as you move through timeframes.
Precision High/Low Anchors:
Dotted Lines: Instantly see which lower timeframe (LTF) candle created the high and low of the current HTF candle. This is perfect for visualizing manipulation wicks and the true Power of Three delivery.
Solid Lines: Automatically identify the absolute highest high and lowest low across the entire displayed range of HTF candles. The script then draws a solid line back to the exact LTF candle that formed these critical points, defining your true trading range. This feature intelligently hides itself if the current candle is making the high/low to avoid unnecessary clutter.
Automated Liquidity Sweep Detection:
This powerful, built-in algorithm automatically identifies one of the most critical price action events: a liquidity sweep. When a newer HTF candle takes the low of the oldest displayed candle and then closes back above it, the indicator instantly alerts you.
It draws a dashed line from the initial low to the end of the range and places a bold 'x' marker below the specific candle that performed the sweep, giving you a clear, unmissable signal of this key market event.
Integrated HTF Countdown Timer:
Stay perfectly in sync with the market. A clean, floating timer in the bottom-right corner displays a live countdown to the close of your selected higher timeframe candle, complete with a header so you always know which timeframe you're tracking.

FVG Premium [no1x]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator provides a comprehensive toolkit for identifying, visualizing, and tracking Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across three distinct timeframes (current chart, a user-defined Medium Timeframe - MTF, and a user-defined High Timeframe - HTF). It is designed to offer traders enhanced insight into FVG dynamics through detailed state monitoring (formation, partial fill, full mitigation, midline touch), extensive visual customization for FVG representation, and a rich alert system for timely notifications on FVG-related events.
█ CONCEPTS
This indicator is built upon the core concept of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and their significance in price action analysis, offering a multi-layered approach to their detection and interpretation across different timeframes.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
A Fair Value Gap (FVG), also known as an imbalance, represents a range in price delivery where one side of the market (buying or selling) was more aggressive, leaving an inefficiency or an "imbalance" in the price action. This concept is prominently featured within Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodologies, where such gaps are often interpreted as footprints left by "smart money" due to rapid, forceful price movements. These methodologies suggest that price may later revisit these FVG zones to rebalance a prior inefficiency or to seek liquidity before continuing its path. These gaps are typically identified by a three-bar pattern:
Bullish FVG : This is a three-candle formation where the second candle shows a strong upward move. The FVG is the space created between the high of the first candle (bottom of FVG) and the low of the third candle (top of FVG). This indicates a strong upward impulsive move.
Bearish FVG : This is a three-candle formation where the second candle shows a strong downward move. The FVG is the space created between the low of the first candle (top of FVG) and the high of the third candle (bottom of FVG). This indicates a strong downward impulsive move.
FVGs are often watched by traders as potential areas where price might return to "rebalance" or find support/resistance.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis
The indicator extends FVG detection beyond the current chart's timeframe (Low Timeframe - LTF) to two higher user-defined timeframes: Medium Timeframe (MTF) and High Timeframe (HTF). This allows traders to:
Identify FVGs that might be significant on a broader market structure.
Observe how FVGs from different timeframes align or interact.
Gain a more comprehensive perspective on potential support and resistance zones.
FVG State and Lifecycle Management
The indicator actively tracks the lifecycle of each detected FVG:
Formation : The initial identification of an FVG.
Partial Fill (Entry) : When price enters but does not completely pass through the FVG. The indicator updates the "current" top/bottom of the FVG to reflect the filled portion.
Midline (Equilibrium) Touch : When price touches the 50% level of the FVG.
Full Mitigation : When price completely trades through the FVG, effectively "filling" or "rebalancing" the gap. The indicator records the mitigation time.
This state tracking is crucial for understanding how price interacts with these zones.
FVG Classification (Large FVG)
FVGs can be optionally classified as "Large FVGs" (LV) if their size (top to bottom range) exceeds a user-defined multiple of the Average True Range (ATR) for that FVG's timeframe. This helps distinguish FVGs that are significantly larger relative to recent volatility.
Visual Customization and Information Delivery
A key concept is providing extensive control over how FVGs are displayed. This control is achieved through a centralized set of visual parameters within the indicator, allowing users to configure numerous aspects (colors, line styles, visibility of boxes, midlines, mitigation lines, labels, etc.) for each timeframe. Additionally, an on-chart information panel summarizes the nearest unmitigated bullish and bearish FVG levels for each active timeframe, providing a quick glance at key price points.
█ FEATURES
This indicator offers a rich set of features designed to provide a highly customizable and comprehensive Fair Value Gap (FVG) analysis experience. Users can tailor the FVG detection, visual representation, and alerting mechanisms across three distinct timeframes: the current chart (Low Timeframe - LTF), a user-defined Medium Timeframe (MTF), and a user-defined High Timeframe (HTF).
Multi-Timeframe FVG Detection and Display
The core strength of this indicator lies in its ability to identify and display FVGs from not only the current chart's timeframe (LTF) but also from two higher, user-selectable timeframes (MTF and HTF).
Timeframe Selection: Users can specify the exact MTF (e.g., "60", "240") and HTF (e.g., "D", "W") through dedicated inputs in the "MTF (Medium Timeframe)" and "HTF (High Timeframe)" settings groups. The visibility of FVGs from these higher timeframes can be toggled independently using the "Show MTF FVGs" and "Show HTF FVGs" checkboxes.
Consistent Detection Logic: The FVG detection logic, based on the classic three-bar imbalance pattern detailed in the 'Concepts' section, is applied consistently across all selected timeframes (LTF, MTF, HTF)
Timeframe-Specific Visuals: Each timeframe's FVGs (LTF, MTF, HTF) can be customized with unique colors for bullish/bearish states and their mitigated counterparts. This allows for easy visual differentiation of FVGs originating from different market perspectives.
Comprehensive FVG Visualization Options
The indicator provides extensive control over how FVGs are visually represented on the chart for each timeframe (LTF, MTF, HTF).
FVG Boxes:
Visibility: Main FVG boxes can be shown or hidden per timeframe using the "Show FVG Boxes" (for LTF), "Show Boxes" (for MTF/HTF) inputs.
Color Customization: Colors for bullish, bearish, active, and mitigated FVG boxes (including Large FVGs, if classified) are fully customizable for each timeframe.
Box Extension & Length: FVG boxes can either be extended to the right indefinitely ("Extend Boxes Right") or set to a fixed length in bars ("Short Box Length" or "Box Length" equivalent inputs).
Box Labels: Optional labels can display the FVG's timeframe and fill percentage on the box. These labels are configurable for all timeframes (LTF, MTF, and HTF). Please note: If FVGs are positioned very close to each other on the chart, their respective labels may overlap. This can potentially lead to visual clutter, and it is a known behavior in the current version of the indicator.
Box Borders: Visibility, width, style (solid, dashed, dotted), and color of FVG box borders are customizable per timeframe.
Midlines (Equilibrium/EQ):
Visibility: The 50% level (midline or EQ) of FVGs can be shown or hidden for each timeframe.
Style Customization: Width, style, and color of the midline are customizable per timeframe. The indicator tracks if this midline has been touched by price.
Mitigation Lines:
Visibility: Mitigation lines (representing the FVG's opening level that needs to be breached for full mitigation) can be shown or hidden for each timeframe. If shown, these lines are always extended to the right.
Style Customization: Width, style, and color of the mitigation line are customizable per timeframe.
Mitigation Line Labels: Optional price labels can be displayed on mitigation lines, with a customizable horizontal bar offset for positioning. For optimal label placement, the following horizontal bar offsets are recommended: 4 for LTF, 8 for MTF, and 12 for HTF.
Persistence After Mitigation: Users can choose to keep mitigation lines visible even after an FVG is fully mitigated, with a distinct color for such lines. Importantly, this option is only effective if the general setting 'Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs' is disabled, as otherwise, the entire FVG and its lines will be removed upon mitigation.
FVG State Management and Behavior
The indicator tracks and visually responds to changes in FVG states.
Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs: This option, typically found in the indicator's general settings, allows users to automatically remove all visual elements of an FVG from the chart once price has fully mitigated it. This helps maintain chart clarity by focusing on active FVGs.
Partial Fill Visualization: When price enters an FVG, the indicator offers a dynamic visual representation: the portion of the FVG that has been filled is shown as a "mitigated box" (typically with a distinct color), while the original FVG box shrinks to clearly highlight the remaining, unfilled portion. This two-part display provides an immediate visual cue about how much of the FVG's imbalance has been addressed and what potential remains within the gap.
Visual Filtering by ATR Proximity: To help users focus on the most relevant price action, FVGs can be dynamically hidden if they are located further from the current price than a user-defined multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). This behavior is controlled by the "Filter Band Width (ATR Multiple)" input; setting this to zero disables the filter entirely, ensuring all detected FVGs remain visible regardless of their proximity to price.
Alternative Usage Example: Mitigation Lines as Key Support/Resistance Levels
For traders preferring a minimalist chart focused on key Fair Value Gap (FVG) levels, the indicator's visualization settings can be customized to display only FVG mitigation lines. This approach leverages these lines as potential support and resistance zones, reflecting areas where price might revisit to address imbalances.
To configure this view:
Disable FVG Boxes: Turn off "Show FVG Boxes" (for LTF) or "Show Boxes" (for MTF/HTF) for the desired timeframes.
Hide Midlines: Disable the visibility of the 50% FVG Midlines (Equilibrium/EQ).
Ensure Mitigation Lines are Visible: Keep "Mitigation Lines" enabled.
Retain All Mitigation Lines:
Disable the "Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs" option in the general settings.
Enable the feature to "keep mitigation lines visible even after an FVG is fully mitigated". This ensures lines from all FVGs (active or fully mitigated) remain on the chart, which is only effective if "Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs" is disabled.
This setup offers:
A Decluttered Chart: Focuses solely on the FVG opening levels.
Precise S/R Zones: Treats mitigation lines as specific points for potential price reactions.
Historical Level Analysis: Includes lines from past, fully mitigated FVGs for a comprehensive view of significant price levels.
For enhanced usability with this focused view, consider these optional additions:
The on-chart Information Panel can be activated to display a quick summary of the nearest unmitigated FVG levels.
Mitigation Line Labels can also be activated for clear price level identification. A customizable horizontal bar offset is available for positioning these labels; for example, offsets of 4 for LTF, 8 for MTF, and 12 for HTF can be effective.
FVG Classification (Large FVG)
This feature allows for distinguishing FVGs based on their size relative to market volatility.
Enable Classification: Users can enable "Classify FVG (Large FVG)" to identify FVGs that are significantly larger than average.
ATR-Based Threshold: An FVG is classified as "Large" if its height (price range) is greater than or equal to the Average True Range (ATR) of its timeframe multiplied by a user-defined "Large FVG Threshold (ATR Multiple)". The ATR period for this calculation is also configurable.
Dedicated Colors: Large FVGs (both bullish/bearish and active/mitigated) can be assigned unique colors, making them easily distinguishable on the chart.
Panel Icon: Large FVGs are marked with a special icon in the Info Panel.
Information Panel
An on-chart panel provides a quick summary of the nearest unmitigated FVG levels.
Visibility and Position: The panel can be shown/hidden and positioned in any of the nine standard locations on the chart (e.g., Top Right, Middle Center).
Content: It displays the price levels of the nearest unmitigated bullish and bearish FVGs for LTF, MTF (if active), and HTF (if active). It also indicates if these nearest FVGs are Large FVGs (if classification is enabled) using a selectable icon.
Styling: Text size, border color, header background/text colors, default text color, and "N/A" cell background color are customizable.
Highlighting: Background and text colors for the cells displaying the overall nearest bullish and bearish FVG levels (across all active timeframes) can be customized to draw attention to the most proximate FVG.
Comprehensive Alert System
The indicator offers a granular alert system for various FVG-related events, configurable for each timeframe (LTF, MTF, HTF) independently. Users can enable alerts for:
New FVG Formation: Separate alerts for new bullish and new bearish FVG formations.
FVG Entry/Partial Fill: Separate alerts for price entering a bullish FVG or a bearish FVG.
FVG Full Mitigation: Separate alerts for full mitigation of bullish and bearish FVGs.
FVG Midline (EQ) Touch: Separate alerts for price touching the midline of a bullish or bearish FVG.
Alert messages are detailed, providing information such as the timeframe, FVG type (bull/bear, Large FVG), relevant price levels, and timestamps.
█ NOTES
This section provides additional information regarding the indicator's usage, performance considerations, and potential interactions with the TradingView platform. Understanding these points can help users optimize their experience and troubleshoot effectively.
Performance and Resource Management
Maximum FVGs to Track : The "Max FVGs to Track" input (defaulting to 25) limits the number of FVG objects processed for each category (e.g., LTF Bullish, MTF Bearish). Increasing this value significantly can impact performance due to more objects being iterated over and potentially drawn, especially when multiple timeframes are active.
Drawing Object Limits : To manage performance, this script sets its own internal limits on the number of drawing objects it displays. While it allows for up to approximately 500 lines (max_lines_count=500) and 500 labels (max_labels_count=500), the number of FVG boxes is deliberately restricted to a maximum of 150 (max_boxes_count=150). This specific limit for boxes is a key performance consideration: displaying too many boxes can significantly slow down the indicator, and a very high number is often not essential for analysis. Enabling all visual elements for many FVGs across all three timeframes can cause the indicator to reach these internal limits, especially the stricter box limit
Optimization Strategies : To help you manage performance, reduce visual clutter, and avoid exceeding drawing limits when using this indicator, I recommend the following strategies:
Maintain or Lower FVG Tracking Count: The "Max FVGs to Track" input defaults to 25. I find this value generally sufficient for effective analysis and balanced performance. You can keep this default or consider reducing it further if you experience performance issues or prefer a less dense FVG display.
Utilize Proximity Filtering: I suggest activating the "Filter Band Width (ATR Multiple)" option (found under "General Settings") to display only those FVGs closer to the current price. From my experience, a value of 5 for the ATR multiple often provides a good starting point for balanced performance, but you should feel free to adjust this based on market volatility and your specific trading needs.
Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs: I strongly recommend enabling the "Hide Fully Mitigated FVGs" option. This setting automatically removes all visual elements of an FVG from the chart once it has been fully mitigated by price. Doing so significantly reduces the number of active drawing objects, lessens computational load, and helps maintain chart clarity by focusing only on active, relevant FVGs.
Disable FVG Display for Unused Timeframes: If you are not actively monitoring certain higher timeframes (MTF or HTF) for FVG analysis, I advise disabling their display by unchecking "Show MTF FVGs" or "Show HTF FVGs" respectively. This can provide a significant performance boost.
Simplify Visual Elements: For active FVGs, consider hiding less critical visual elements if they are not essential for your specific analysis. This could include box labels, borders, or even entire FVG boxes if, for example, only the mitigation lines are of interest for a particular timeframe.
Settings Changes and Platform Limits : This indicator is comprehensive and involves numerous calculations and drawings. When multiple settings are changed rapidly in quick succession, it is possible, on occasion, for TradingView to issue a "Runtime error: modify_study_limit_exceeding" or similar. This can cause the indicator to temporarily stop updating or display errors.
Recommended Approach : When adjusting settings, it is advisable to wait a brief moment (a few seconds) after each significant change. This allows the indicator to reprocess and update on the chart before another change is made
Error Recovery : Should such a runtime error occur, making a minor, different adjustment in the settings (e.g., toggling a checkbox off and then on again) and waiting briefly will typically allow the indicator to recover and resume correct operation. This behavior is related to platform limitations when handling complex scripts with many inputs and drawing objects.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF/HTF) Data and Behavior
HTF FVG Confirmation is Essential: : For an FVG from a higher timeframe (MTF or HTF) to be identified and displayed on your current chart (LTF), the three-bar pattern forming the FVG on that higher timeframe must consist of fully closed bars. The indicator does not draw speculative FVGs based on incomplete/forming bars from higher timeframes.
Data Retrieval and LTF Processing: The indicator may use techniques like lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_on for timely data retrieval from higher timeframes. However, the actual detection of an FVG occurs after all its constituent bars on the HTF have closed.
Appearance Timing on LTF (1 LTF Candle Delay): As a natural consequence of this, an FVG that is confirmed on an HTF (i.e., its third bar closes) will typically become visible on your LTF chart one LTF bar after its confirmation on the HTF.
Example: Assume an FVG forms on a 30-minute chart at 15:30 (i.e., with the close of the 30-minute bar that covers the 15:00-15:30 period). If you are monitoring this FVG on a 15-minute chart, the indicator will detect this newly formed 30-minute FVG while processing the data for the 15-minute bar that starts at 15:30 and closes at 15:45. Therefore, the 30-minute FVG will become visible on your 15-minute chart at the earliest by 15:45 (i.e., with the close of that relevant 15-minute LTF candle). This means the HTF FVG is reflected on the LTF chart with a delay equivalent to one LTF candle.
FVG Detection and Display Logic
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on the current chart timeframe (LTF) are detected based on barstate.isconfirmed. This means the three-bar pattern must be complete with closed bars before an FVG is identified. This confirmation method prevents FVGs from being prematurely identified on the forming bar.
Alerts
Alert Setup : To receive alerts from this indicator, you must first ensure you have enabled the specific alert conditions you are interested in within the indicator's own settings (see 'Comprehensive Alert System' under the 'FEATURES' section). Once configured, open TradingView's 'Create Alert' dialog. In the 'Condition' tab, select this indicator's name, and crucially, choose the 'Any alert() function call' option from the dropdown list. This setup allows the indicator to trigger alerts based on the precise event conditions you have activated in its settings
Alert Frequency : Alerts are designed to trigger once per bar close (alert.freq_once_per_bar_close) for the specific event.
User Interface (UI) Tips
Settings Group Icons: In the indicator settings menu, timeframe-specific groups are marked with star icons for easier navigation: 🌟 for LTF (Current Chart Timeframe), 🌟🌟 for MTF (Medium Timeframe), and 🌟🌟🌟 for HTF (High Timeframe).
Dependent Inputs: Some input settings are dependent on others being enabled. These dependencies are visually indicated in the settings menu using symbols like "↳" (dependent setting on the next line), "⟷" (mutually exclusive inline options), or "➜" (directly dependent inline option).
Settings Layout Overview: The indicator settings are organized into logical groups for ease of use. Key global display controls – such as toggles for MTF FVGs, HTF FVGs (along with their respective timeframe selectors), and the Information Panel – are conveniently located at the very top within the '⚙️ General Settings' group. This placement allows for quick access to frequently adjusted settings. Other sections provide detailed customization options for each timeframe (LTF, MTF, HTF), specific FVG components, and alert configurations.
█ FOR Pine Script® CODERS
This section provides a high-level overview of the FVG Premium indicator's internal architecture, data flow, and the interaction between its various library components. It is intended for Pine Script™ programmers who wish to understand the indicator's design, potentially extend its functionality, or learn from its structure.
System Architecture and Modular Design
The indicator is architected moduarly, leveraging several custom libraries to separate concerns and enhance code organization and reusability. Each library has a distinct responsibility:
FvgTypes: Serves as the foundational data definition layer. It defines core User-Defined Types (UDTs) like fvgObject (for storing all attributes of an FVG) and drawSettings (for visual configurations), along with enumerations like tfType.
CommonUtils: Provides utility functions for common tasks like mapping user string inputs (e.g., "Dashed" for line style) to their corresponding Pine Script™ constants (e.g., line.style_dashed) and formatting timeframe strings for display.
FvgCalculations: Contains the core logic for FVG detection (both LTF and MTF/HTF via requestMultiTFBarData), FVG classification (Large FVGs based on ATR), and checking FVG interactions with price (mitigation, partial fill).
FvgObject: Implements an object-oriented approach by attaching methods to the fvgObject UDT. These methods manage the entire visual lifecycle of an FVG on the chart, including drawing, updating based on state changes (e.g., mitigation), and deleting drawing objects. It's responsible for applying the visual configurations defined in drawSettings.
FvgPanel: Manages the creation and dynamic updates of the on-chart information panel, which displays key FVG levels.
The main indicator script acts as the orchestrator, initializing these libraries, managing user inputs, processing data flow between libraries, and handling the main event loop (bar updates) for FVG state management and alerts.
Core Data Flow and FVG Lifecycle Management
The general data flow and FVG lifecycle can be summarized as follows:
Input Processing: User inputs from the "Settings" dialog are read by the main indicator script. Visual style inputs (colors, line styles, etc.) are consolidated into a types.drawSettings object (defined in FvgTypes). Other inputs (timeframes, filter settings, alert toggles) control the behavior of different modules. CommonUtils assists in mapping some string inputs to Pine constants.
FVG Detection:
For the current chart timeframe (LTF), FvgCalculations.detectFvg() identifies potential FVGs based on bar patterns.
For MTF/HTF, the main indicator script calls FvgCalculations.requestMultiTFBarData() to fetch necessary bar data from higher timeframes, then FvgCalculations.detectMultiTFFvg() identifies FVGs.
Newly detected FVGs are instantiated as types.fvgObject and stored in arrays within the main script. These objects also undergo classification (e.g., Large FVG) by FvgCalculations.
State Update & Interaction: On each bar, the main indicator script iterates through active FVG objects to manage their state based on price interaction:
Initially, the main script calls FvgCalculations.fvgInteractionCheck() to efficiently determine if the current bar's price might be interacting with a given FVG.
If a potential interaction is flagged, the main script then invokes methods directly on the fvgObject instance (e.g., updateMitigation(), updatePartialFill(), checkMidlineTouch(), which are part of FvgObject).
These fvgObject methods are responsible for the detailed condition checking and the actual modification of the FVG's state. For instance, the updateMitigation() and updatePartialFill() methods internally utilize specific helper functions from FvgCalculations (like checkMitigation() and checkPartialMitigation()) to confirm the precise nature of the interaction before updating the fvgObject’s state fields (such as isMitigated, currentTop, currentBottom, or isMidlineTouched).
Visual Rendering:
The FvgObject.updateDrawings() method is called for each fvgObject. This method is central to drawing management; it creates, updates, or deletes chart drawings (boxes, lines, labels) based on the FVG's current state, its prev_* (previous bar state) fields for optimization, and the visual settings passed via the drawSettings object.
Information Panel Update: The main indicator script determines the nearest FVG levels, populates a panelData object (defined in FvgPanelLib), and calls FvgPanel.updatePanel() to refresh the on-chart display.
Alert Generation: Based on the updated FVG states and user-enabled alert settings, the main indicator script constructs and triggers alerts using Pine Script's alert() function."
Key Design Considerations
UDT-Centric Design: The fvgObject UDT is pivotal, acting as a stateful container for all information related to a single FVG. Most operations revolve around creating, updating, or querying these objects.
State Management: To optimize drawing updates and manage FVG lifecycles, fvgObject instances store their previous bar's state (e.g., prevIsVisible, prevCurrentTop). The FvgObject.updateDrawings() method uses this to determine if a redraw is necessary, minimizing redundant drawing calls.
Settings Object: A drawSettings object is populated once (or when inputs change) and passed to drawing functions. This avoids repeatedly reading numerous input() values on every bar or within loops, improving performance.
Dynamic Arrays for FVG Storage: Arrays are used to store collections of fvgObject instances, allowing for dynamic management (adding new FVGs, iterating for updates).
Swing High/Low LQ TrackerAn interactive tool to track liquidity events. Select start and end points on your chart—this indicator will automatically detect and plot the highest high and lowest low from that window, then extend those levels forward. If price sweeps either level, it marks the event with a clean "LQ" tag.
Perfect for traders who want to identify session-based liquidity, like killzone highs/lows, without manually drawing and deleting lines every day.
How It Works
-Select start and end time directly from settings
-Indicator calculates the swing high and low during that range
-Lines extend beyond the session until broken
-“LQ” markers appear when price sweeps the swing levels
It’s a must-have for ICT traders, smart money traders, or anyone who wants to track key liquidity levels without clutter.
Simple and effective tool for marking important ranges and tracking when liquidity is taken. No complex settings - just select your range and monitor the levels.

ICT Opening Range Projections (tristanlee85)ICT Opening Range Projections
This indicator visualizes key price levels based on ICT's (Inner Circle Trader) "Opening Range" concept. This 30-minute time interval establishes price levels that the algorithm will refer to throughout the session. The indicator displays these levels, including standard deviation projections, internal subdivisions (quadrants), and the opening price.
🟪 What It Does
The Opening Range is a crucial 30-minute window where market algorithms establish significant price levels. ICT theory suggests this range forms the basis for daily price movement.
This script helps you:
Mark the high, low, and opening price of each session.
Divide the range into quadrants (premium, discount, and midpoint/Consequent Encroachment).
Project potential price targets beyond the range using configurable standard deviation multiples .
🟪 How to Use It
This tool aids in time-based technical analysis rooted in ICT's Opening Range model, helping you observe price interaction with algorithmic levels.
Example uses include:
Identifying early structural boundaries.
Observing price behavior within premium/discount zones.
Visualizing initial displacement from the range to anticipate future moves.
Comparing price reactions at projected standard deviation levels.
Aligning price action with significant times like London or NY Open.
Note: This indicator provides a visual framework; it does not offer trade signals or interpretations.
🟪 Key Information
Time Zone: New York time (ET) is required on your chart.
Sessions: Supports multiple sessions, including NY midnight, NY AM, NY PM, and three custom timeframes.
Time Interval: Supports multi-timeframe up to 15 minutes. Best used on a 1-minute chart for accuracy.
🟪 Session Options
The Opening Range interval is configurable for up to 6 sessions:
Pre-defined ICT Sessions:
NY Midnight: 12:00 AM – 12:30 AM ET
NY AM: 9:30 AM – 10:00 AM ET
NY PM: 1:30 PM – 2:00 PM ET
Custom Sessions:
Three user-defined start/end time pairs.
This example shows a custom session from 03:30 - 04:00:
🟪 Understanding the Levels
The Opening Price is the open of the first 1-minute candle within the chosen session.
At session close, the Opening Range is calculated using its High and Low . An optional swing-based mode uses swing highs/lows for range boundaries.
The range is divided into quadrants by its midpoint ( Consequent Encroachment or CE):
Upper Quadrant: CE to high (premium).
Lower Quadrant: Low to CE (discount).
These subdivisions help visualize internal range dynamics, where price often reacts during algorithmic delivery.
🟪 Working with Ranges
By default, the range is determined by the highest high and lowest low of the 30-minute session:
A range can also be determined by the highest/lowest swing points:
Quadrants outline the premium and discount of a range that price will reference:
Small ranges still follow the same algorithmic logic, but may be deemed insignificant for one's trading. These can be filtered in the settings by specifying a minimum ticks limit. In this example, the range is 42 ticks (10.5 points) but the indicator is configured for 80 ticks (20 points). We can select which levels will plot if the range is below the limit. Here, only the 00:00 opening price is plotted:
You may opt to include the range high/low, quadrants, and projections as well. This will plot a red (configurable) range bracket to indicate it is below the limit while plotting the levels:
🟪 Price Projections
Projections extend beyond the Opening Range using standard deviations, framing the market beyond the initial session and identifying potential targets. You define the standard deviation multiples (e.g., 1.0, 1.5, 2.0).
Both positive and negative extensions are displayed, symmetrically projected from the range's high and low.
The Dynamic Levels option plots only the next projection level once price crosses the previous extreme. For example, only the 0.5 STDEV level plots until price reaches it, then the 1.0 level appears, and so on. This continues up to your defined maximum projections, or indefinitely if standard deviations are set to 0.
This example shows dynamic levels for a total of 6 sessions, only 1 of which meet a configured minimum limit of 50 ticks:
Small ranges followed by significant displacement are impacted the most with the number of levels plotted. You may hide projections when configuring the minimum ticks.
A fixed standard deviation will plot levels in both directions, regardless of the price range. Here, we plot up to 3.0 which hiding projections for small ranges:

Support and Resistance Power Channel [ChartPrime]The Support and Resistance Power Channel indicator helps traders visualize key support and resistance zones, along with buy and sell power within those zones. By identifying the highest and lowest prices within a defined range, this indicator provides insight into potential price reversals and market strength. It calculates the strength of buy and sell pressure within the zones and includes additional features like midline values and delayed signals to reduce false breakouts.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ Support and Resistance Zones :
This indicator identifies dynamic support (lower zone) and resistance (upper zone) levels, allowing traders to easily visualize key price levels. These zones are customizable with settings for the length of the channel and how far the zones extend into the future. The zones can be used to predict areas of potential price reversal or consolidation.
⯌ Buy and Sell Power :
Within the upper resistance zone, the indicator calculates Sell Power based on the number of bearish candles, while the lower support zone calculates Buy Power based on bullish candles. This feature helps traders understand the strength of buying or selling activity within each zone.
Example of buy and sell power tracking:
⯌ Highest, Lowest, and Mid Price Levels :
The indicator marks the highest and lowest price levels within the channel with an "X," and displays these values at the end of the channel. Additionally, the midline (average of the high and low) is plotted with a dotted line, showing a key area that the price often retests during trends.
⯌ Delayed Signal Markers :
To prevent false breakouts, the indicator includes a 2-bar delay for signals. These signals are plotted when the price crosses above or below the resistance or support zones, confirming potential reversals or breakouts. Arrows or diamonds are used to mark these signals on the chart.
Example of delayed breakout signals on the chart:
⯌ Extend Zones into the Future :
In the settings, traders can extend the support and resistance zones further into the future, allowing for ongoing analysis even after the initial levels have been identified. This feature can help with forward-looking trade planning.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Defines the number of bars used to calculate the support and resistance zones.

Synapse Trade - Fair Value GapsNot your average FVG indicator. This FVG indicator allowed for overlapping, and invalidated FVGs to remain as the existence of Inversion Fair Value Gaps exists and, in my recent experience, has been incredibly useful finding new levels of support and resistance, even inside a currently FVG, the "invalidated" FVGs can still have an impact on price trend and react to it.

FVG + OB + RSI Divergence + Volume Spikes🧠 FVG + OB + RSI Divergence + Volume Spikes – Market Structure Confluence Tool
This all-in-one indicator brings together four powerful market concepts into a single script designed to help traders identify high-probability trade setups with precision and clarity:
🔍 What It Does
✅ Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Highlights inefficiencies in price action, showing where the market may return to “rebalance.”
✅ Order Blocks (OB)
Marks key institutional footprints — bullish and bearish order blocks based on engulfing candle structures.
✅ RSI Divergence
Detects both bullish and bearish divergences between price and RSI, signaling potential reversals.
✅ Volume Spikes
Flags bars where volume significantly exceeds the average — a common footprint of smart money.
🎯 How to Use
Use this tool to spot confluences between price inefficiencies (FVG), key reversal zones (OB), momentum shifts (RSI Divergence), and institutional interest (Volume Spikes). The best setups often occur when multiple signals align — especially at key support/resistance or trend zones.
⚙️ Inputs
RSI length (for divergence)
Volume spike sensitivity (multiplier)
Lookback for Order Blocks and FVGs
⚠️ Notes
This is a non-repainting tool.
Ideal for price action, SMC, ICT, and order flow traders.
Combine with your existing strategy and higher time frame bias for best results.
Balanced Price Range | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Balanced Price Range (BPR) indicator! A Balanced Price Range is a trading concept used by price action traders. It is detected by finding overlapping area between two contrary Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). These areas can be used as entry points during market pullbacks. For more information about the process, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Balanced Price Range Features :
Balanced Price Range Detection : Identifies areas where bullish and bearish FVGs overlap, suggesting a zone of price equilibrium.
Customizable FVG & BPR Detection : You can fine-tune FVG detection and sensitivity for BPR detection to your liking.
Retest Labels : Bullish & Bearish retest labels will be rendered for BPRs.
Alerts : You can set alerts for Bullish & Bearish BPR detection and their retests.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
This indicator doesn't just detect standard FVGs but specifically looks for areas where bullish and bearish IFVGs (Invalidated Fair Value Gaps) overlap, defining a Balanced Price Range. It also actively manages and updates identified BPR zones, removing them when they are invalidated or remain untouched for a specified period. It highlights and alerts users to retests of established BPR zones, signaling potential trading opportunities. Users can tailor the appearance of the BPR zones and retest markers, as well as configure specific alerts for new BPR formations and retests.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
A Fair Value Gap generally occur when there is an imbalance in the market. They can be detected by specific formations within the chart. The indicator first detects bullish & bearish FVG zones according to their formations on chart. Then, they are dynamically tracked and flagged as invalidated if the price crosses them, turning them into IFVGs. When a FVG & IFVG of the same type overlaps, the indicator combines them into a single BPR of corresponding type. The detected BPR is updated as new data comes in, and renders retests labels as they occur. A bullish BPR can be used to find long trade entry opportunities, while a bearish BPR can be used to find short trade entry opportunities. Retests can also indicate potential movements in the corresponding direction of the BPR. Users can set-up alerts for BPR detection & BPR retests and will get notified as they occur.
⚙️ SETTINGS
Show Historic Zones: If enabled, invalidated or expired BPR zones will remain visible on the chart.
Balanced Price Range:
FVG Detection Method: Determines the criteria for the bar types forming the initial FVG.
Same: All three bars forming the FVG must be of the same type (all bullish or all bearish).
Mixed: The bar types must vary (a mix of bullish and bearish bars).
All: Bar types can vary or be the same.
FVG Invalidation Method: Determines which part of the candle (wick or close) invalidates the initial FVG.
BPR Invalidation Method: Determines which part of the candle (wick or close) invalidates the Balanced Price Range.
Sensitivity: Adjusts the sensitivity of FVG detection. Higher values may identify fewer, larger BPRs, while lower values may detect more, smaller BPRs.
Labels: Toggles the display of text labels on the identified zones.
Retests: Enables or disables the detection and visualization of BPR retests.
smc bullrider 1.0The smc bullrider 1.0 indicator is specifically crafted for mapping market structures. It excels in clearly recognizing type of Points Of Interest (SCOB) offering traders a straightforward and effective method to analyze market movements. It helps identify strategic entry points with precision.
🟠 Exploring Structure Mapping.
🔹This indicator presents a distinctive method for examining the market structure, emphasizing liquidity through the concept of 'Inducement'. Inducement plays a pivotal role in pinpointing essential structural indicators in the market, including Higher Highs (HH), Higher Lows (HL), Lower Lows (LL), and Lower Highs (LH).
🔹Consider Inducement as a strategically placed trap near supply or demand zones. It lures in eager buyers or sellers before the actual zone is reached, effectively creating liquidity. To validate an inducement, it must signify a legitimate pullback.
🔹A valid scenario arises when the price either sweeps or closes beyond the high or low of the preceding candle. In this context, the candle's color, whether bullish or bearish, holds no significance, and both situations are deemed valid. Inside bars are disregarded unless they meet this specific criterion. The indicator facilitates this process by automatically highlighting valid pullbacks with a distinctive gray round label.
🔹This feature serves not only as a visual guide but also as a vital tool for effortlessly comprehending market movements, offering a clear and visual representation of ongoing market trends
