# HTF Candle Structure & CISD Indicator

---

## █ HTF Candle Structure (C2, XC2, C4, XC4)

### Overview
A systematic framework for classifying HTF (Higher Time Frame) candle states to analyze market structure.

### Concept
| Term | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **C2** | HTF Sweep formation candle |
| **XC2** | C2 structure invalidated (broken) |
| **C4** | Continuation candle following C2 |
| **XC4** | C4 structure invalidated (broken) |




When a bearish C4 is invalidated, it converts into an xC4, and directional bias must be taken into account. In most cases, price moves to target the opposing liquidity

This framework helps determine HTF candle structure and confirms whether the Bullish/Bearish narrative is progressing well on the LTF (Lower Time Frame).

### Options
- **Previous HTF Mid-Range Display**: Shows High, Low, and Open prices along with STDV (Standard Deviation) levels to identify manipulation ranges.


Additionally, I anticipate the manipulation range using the external range of the newly developed STDV

## █ CISD (Change in State of Delivery)

### Overview
CISD is an ICT concept that allows for **early detection of reversal signals** compared to traditional market structure analysis. This script accurately identifies CISD levels, updates them in real-time, and provides alerts.

### Concept
CISD occurs when price **closes above (or below)** the **Open** of the candle that initiated the most recent downtrend (or uptrend).

> **Example**: During a downtrend, if the closing price breaks above the open of the last consecutive bearish candle → Bullish CISD confirmed

### Options
| Option | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| **LIQ Touch Marker** | CISD formed after touching liquidity displays a triangle (▲/▼) on candle close, indicating higher reliability |
| **STDV Levels** | Displays standard deviation from CISD. 2~2.5σ suggests retracement/manipulation zones, 4~4.5σ suggests distribution zones |

## █ FVG & iFVG (Fair Value Gap)

### Overview
| Term | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **FVG** | Evidence of order imbalance in the market |
| **iFVG** | FVG that has flipped to the opposite meaning |

### Concept
1. Strong rally → Bullish FVG forms
2. Price holds above FVG, then drops and fully breaks below
3. Price retests the FVG and reacts as resistance → Downtrend continues
4. At this point, the FVG becomes an **iFVG**

### Options
| Option | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| **iFVG Only** | Display only converted iFVGs |
| **FVG + iFVG** | Touched FVGs extend, shown only within CISD range. Extended mode suits PDA usage; default mode suits entries |

## █ Additional Options

### Alert & MTF Table
- **Table**: Displays CISD status across 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W, 1M timeframes
- **Alert**: Triggers when all 4 short-term timeframes (3m, 5m, 15m, 30m) align in the same direction
- Useful for identifying short-term directional bias

### LIQ Level
- Displays High/Low levels alongside user-defined swing points
- **Auto Mode**: Bullish CISD → Shows High levels / Bearish CISD → Shows Low levels
- Options to fade or delete on sweep
- Used with STDV to identify **Delivery Targets**
