Fair Value Gaps w Signals fair value gaps for resistance and support. It is important to understand ranges with this. An open bearish fair value gaps can indicate a bearish range. A bullish fair value gaps in premium can indicate retracement into the bearish range. A fair value gaps on a high time frame in discount of the range can be a indicator to go long. one can play the fair value gaps in discount or a range back into it for longs. negation of the fair value gaps candle bearish or bullish is stop loss. One would want to see a small time frame turn around story within the fair value gaps you are trading. FVG are support and resistance until the market is balanced. A bearish fair value gaps untouched can indicate the end of a range. The candle before the 1st bullsih fair value gaps could be the beginning of the range. all time frames
Candlestick analysis
Candle Statistics | by beidou_123Script Description
Candle Statistics is a quantitative market analysis indicator that provides a structured statistical overview of recent price behavior using candlestick classification.
The script analyzes historical candles over four user-defined lookback periods and classifies each candle into one of three categories:
Bullish candles (close > open)
Bearish candles (close < open)
Doji candles , defined as candles whose real body is less than or equal to 10% of the total candle range
Key Features
Fully customizable lookback periods
Users can define four independent candle windows (e.g., 15, 60, 240, 480 bars).
Standardized Doji definition
A Doji is identified when the candle body is small relative to total price range, ensuring consistency across instruments and timeframes.
Directional dominance calculation
For each lookback period, the script computes the Bullish Percentage, defined as:
Bullish % = Bullish Candles ÷ (Bullish + Bearish Candles)
Doji candles are intentionally excluded from this calculation to avoid diluting directional bias.
Visual dominance highlighting
If Bullish % > 50%, the value is displayed using a user-defined bullish dominance color
If Bullish % ≤ 50%, the value is displayed using a user-defined bearish dominance color
On-chart statistics table
All results are presented in a compact, non-intrusive table displayed directly on the main chart.
Table position is fully configurable.
Intended Use
This indicator is designed for:
Market structure analysis
Trend bias evaluation
Volatility and indecision studies
Systematic filtering in discretionary or rule-based trading systems
It is not a signal generator, but a statistical context tool that helps traders assess whether recent price action is dominated by bullish pressure, bearish pressure, or indecision.

CVD Flow Labels for Sessions Ranges [AMT Edition]CVD Flow Labels for Session Ranges
Description:
This script provides a session-aware Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) analysis designed to enhance the “Session Ranges ” framework by combining price extremes with detailed volume flow dynamics. Unlike generic trend or scalping indicators, this tool focuses on identifying aggressive buying and selling pressure, distinguishing between absorption (failed auctions where aggressive flows are rejected) and acceptance (confirmed continuation of flows).
How it works:
CVD Calculation: The script calculates delta for each bar using a choice of Total, Periodic, or EMA-based cumulative methods. Delta represents the net difference between estimated buying and selling volume per bar.
Normalization: By normalizing delta relative to recent volatility, it highlights extreme flows that are statistically significant, making large shifts in market sentiment easier to spot.
Session-Specific Analysis: The indicator separates Asia, London, and New York sessions to allow context-sensitive interpretation of price and volume interactions. Each session’s extremes are monitored, and flow labels are plotted relative to these extremes.
Flow Labels: Bullish and bearish absorption (“ABS”) and acceptance (“ACC WEAK/STRONG”) labels provide immediate visual cues about whether aggressive flows are being absorbed or accepted at key price levels.
Alerts: Configurable alerts trigger when absorption or acceptance occurs, supporting active trading or strategy automation.
Originality & Usefulness:
This script is original because it integrates volume-based auction theory with session-specific market structure, rather than simply showing trend or scalping signals. By combining CVD dynamics with session extreme levels from the “Session Ranges ” script, traders can:
Identify where price is likely to be accepted or rejected.
Confirm aggressive buying or selling flows before entering trades.
Time entries near session extremes with higher probability setups.
How to use:
Apply the “Session Ranges ” to see session highs, lows, and interaction lines.
Use this CVD Flow Labels script to visualize absorption and acceptance at these session levels.
Enter trades based on alignment of session extremes and flow signals:
Absorption at a session extreme may indicate a potential reversal.
Acceptance suggests continuation in the direction of the flow.
Alerts can help manage trades without constant screen monitoring.
This tool is designed to give traders a structured, session-based view of market auctions, providing actionable insights that go beyond typical trend-following or scalping methods. It emphasizes flow analysis and statistical extremes, enabling traders to make more informed decisions grounded in market microstructure.
SMC Market Structure (HH/HL/LH/LL + BOS/CHoCH/MSS)SMC Market Structure (HH/HL/LH/LL + BOS/CHoCH/MSS) is a clean price-action / Smart Money Concepts market structure tool designed to automatically identify and label key structural events on the chart:
Swing structure points: HH, HL, LH, LL
Continuation confirmations: BOS (Break of Structure)
Early reversal warnings: CHoCH (Change of Character)
Stronger reversal signals: MSS (Market Structure Shift) using a displacement filter
The script is built to remain visually tidy: it draws simple horizontal structure lines at the broken swing level and prints small abbreviations (BOS / CHoCH / MSS) directly on the chart without cluttering candles or adding heavy panels.
What the Indicator Detects
1) Swing Points (HH / HL / LH / LL)
Swings are detected using confirmed pivots (left/right “Swing length” bars).
HH (Higher High): a swing high above the previous swing high
LH (Lower High): a swing high below the previous swing high
HL (Higher Low): a swing low above the previous swing low
LL (Lower Low): a swing low below the previous swing low
These labels help define the market’s active structure:
Bullish structure: HH + HL sequence
Bearish structure: LL + LH sequence
Range / consolidation: mixed swing progression
2) BOS (Break of Structure) – Trend Continuation
A BOS prints when price breaks the most recent swing level in the direction of the current structure:
In a bullish market state → break above the most recent swing high
In a bearish market state → break below the most recent swing low
This is typically treated as confirmation that the existing trend is continuing.
3) CHoCH (Change of Character) – Early Reversal Signal
A CHoCH prints on the first break against the current structure:
In a bullish market state → break below the most recent swing low
In a bearish market state → break above the most recent swing high
CHoCH is intended as an early warning that the market may be transitioning into a new directional bias.
4) MSS (Market Structure Shift) – Stronger Reversal via Displacement
MSS is treated as a “strong CHoCH” and requires a decisive, displacement-style candle at the break.
To qualify as MSS, the script requires:
A break against structure with a CLOSE break, and
A displacement candle where:
Candle body > ATR × Displacement Multiplier
This helps filter out shallow wicks or minor liquidity grabs and highlights shifts that show stronger participation and momentum.
How the Indicator Draws on the Chart
When a BOS / CHoCH / MSS occurs:
A horizontal line is drawn from the swing point to the break bar at the broken level.
A small abbreviation label (BOS / CHoCH / MSS) is placed either:
In the middle of the line segment, or
On the break bar (selectable)
Swing labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) are optional and can be disabled for a cleaner “event-only” layout.
Inputs & Settings
Swing Length (Pivot Left/Right)
Controls how sensitive the swing detection is.
Lower values (3–5): more structure points, more signals
Higher values (8–14): fewer, cleaner swings (better for higher timeframes)
Break Confirmation (Wick vs Close)
Wick: break triggers when the candle’s wick crosses the swing level
Close: break triggers only when the candle closes beyond the swing level
Many SMC traders prefer Wick for detecting liquidity runs and early breaks, while others prefer Close to reduce false signals.
MSS Displacement Filter
ATR Length: ATR calculation period
Displacement Multiplier: Minimum body size = ATR × multiplier
Higher multiplier = fewer MSS signals, but stronger quality threshold.
Display Toggles
Show/Hide Swing Labels (HH/HL/LH/LL)
Show/Hide BOS, CHoCH, MSS
Optional EQH/EQL labeling (equal highs/lows)
Visual Controls
Bullish / bearish structure colors
Line width / style
Text offset (in ticks) to keep labels neat above/below level
Maximum structure objects to keep on screen (prevents object-limit issues)
Recommended Usage
Trend Following
Use HH/HL or LL/LH progression to define the trend.
Wait for BOS to confirm continuation.
Use BOS levels as:
Bias confirmation
Potential retest zones
Risk reference for stop placement
Reversal / Shift Detection
Identify prevailing structure (bullish or bearish).
Watch for CHoCH as the first sign of a possible reversal.
Treat MSS as a stronger “shift” event (displacement + close break), often suitable for:
Changing directional bias
Switching from pullback trading to reversal continuation setups
Multi-Timeframe Workflow (Common SMC Method)
Higher timeframe (HTF): use swings and BOS to define macro bias
Lower timeframe (LTF): use CHoCH/MSS to time entries and manage risk
Confirm entries with your preferred tools (order blocks, FVGs, liquidity pools, session timing, etc.)
Notes & Limitations
This script uses confirmed pivots, so swing labels appear only after the swing is fully formed (after Swing length bars). This avoids repainting swing points.
BOS/CHoCH/MSS events are derived from the most recent confirmed swing levels.
MSS requires a close break and displacement threshold even if “Wick” breaks are enabled for other events (by design, to keep MSS strict).
Best Settings by Timeframe (General Guide)
Scalping (1–5m): Swing length 3–5, Wick breaks, MSS multiplier 1.2–1.8
Intraday (15m–1h): Swing length 5–8, Wick or Close, MSS multiplier 1.5–2.0
Swing trading (4h–1D): Swing length 8–14, Close breaks, MSS multiplier 1.8–2.5
Smart Candlestick Pattern Filter [MarkitTick]💡 This Script is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify, grade, and display over 40 distinct candlestick formations based on a proprietary strength and context filtering system. Unlike standard pattern finders that often clutter charts with conflicting signals, this script utilizes a hierarchy logic to display only the most significant pattern detected on any given candle, ensuring chart clarity and actionable data.
● Originality and Utility
The primary utility of this script lies in its filtering engine. Standard indicators often flag every minor Doji or Spinning Top, creating noise. This indicator categorizes patterns into five distinct levels of strength, ranging from simple indecision to very strong reversal or continuation signals.
Furthermore, it incorporates a Trend Context filter, which checks the relationship between price and a Simple Moving Average (SMA). This ensures that reversal patterns (like Hammers) are prioritized during downtrends, while continuation patterns are highlighted during established moves, reducing false positives.
● Methodology
The indicator evaluates price action using specific ratios between the Open, High, Low, and Close, alongside the body size relative to the total range. It assigns a strength score to each detected pattern.
• Pattern Strength Grading
Strength 1 (Indecision): Includes patterns like Doji, Spinning Tops, Dragonfly, and Gravestone Dojis. These signal a pause in momentum.
Strength 2 (Weak): Includes patterns like Hanging Man, Inverted Hammer, Belt Holds, and In-Neck lines. These suggest potential movement but often require confirmation.
Strength 3 (Moderate): Includes classic reversals like Hammers, Shooting Stars, Haramis, Dark Cloud Cover, and Piercing Lines.
Strength 4 (Strong): Includes major signals like Engulfing patterns, Morning/Evening Stars, and Marubozu candles.
Strength 5 (Very Strong): Reserved for rare, high-probability multi-candle formations like Three White Soldiers, Three Black Crows, Rising/Falling Three Methods, and Breakaway gaps.
The script calculates all potential patterns for the current bar and then compares their strength scores. Only the pattern with the highest strength is displayed. If the Show Trend Context option is enabled, the script further validates the pattern against the current market direction (determined by the SMA and slope) before plotting.
● How to Use
Traders can use this tool to identify potential entry and exit points based on the strength of the signal.
• Visual Signals
Patterns are labeled directly on the chart:
Green Labels/Text: Indicate Bullish patterns.
Red Labels/Text: Indicate Bearish patterns.
Gray/White Labels: Indicate Indecision or Weak patterns.
Hovering over any label provides the full name of the pattern and its strength rating (e.g., "Bullish Engulfing - Strength: Strong").
• Trading Logic
High Strength Signals (Levels 4-5): These can be used as primary triggers for trend reversals or strong continuations.
Moderate Signals (Level 3): Useful for adding confluence to existing analysis or anticipating a setup.
Indecision (Level 1): Often useful for taking profits or tightening stop-losses, as they indicate the current trend may be stalling.
● Settings
Show Only Strong Patterns: When enabled, filters out Strength 1, 2, and 3, showing only the most significant signals (Strength >= 4).
Max Patterns to Display: Limits the number of historical labels to prevent chart clutter.
Max Candles to Check Engulfing: Adjusts how far back the script looks to validate the size of an engulfing candle.
Trend Detection Period: Sets the length of the SMA used to determine the background trend context.
Show Only Trend-Appropriate Patterns: If checked, bullish reversals are only shown in downtrends, and bearish reversals in uptrends.

Classic Chartism-Market Structure- Support.ResistanceClassic Chartism – Market Structure + Support & Resistance
This indicator is designed for traditional chart-based technical analysis, relying exclusively on price action and market structure, without the use of oscillators or lagging indicators.
The script automatically detects significant swing highs and swing lows using confirmed pivots and classifies price structure according to classic market structure notation:
HH (Higher High)
HL (Higher Low)
LH (Lower High)
LL (Lower Low)
Based on these swings, the indicator plots horizontal Support & Resistance (SR) levels, representing historically significant areas of supply and demand. These levels remain active until invalidated by price, providing a clear and objective market context.
The indicator does not repaint once a swing is confirmed, making it suitable for real-time analysis and discretionary trading decisions. It performs well across cryptocurrencies, futures, indices, and equities, and is particularly useful for trend identification, pullback entries, and structure-based risk management.

Price-Time Confluence Engine
Price-Time Confluence Engine is a dual-layer market analysis indicator designed to synchronize price-based targets with time-based momentum projections, helping traders anticipate potential reaction points, reversals, and momentum shifts.
The indicator combines adaptive ATR price targets with deviation context on the chart, alongside a forward-projected Stochastic RSI structure in a dedicated pane.
🔹 Core Components
1️⃣ Adaptive Price Targets (Chart Overlay)
On every new candle, a new ATR-based price target is generated automatically.
The target updates dynamically with live price movement until the candle closes.
Targets are directionally aligned with the current candle’s momentum.
A HIT label is displayed when price reaches the active target during the candle.
Behavioral Insight
If a target fails to be hit and remains red after the next candle forms, this behavior has shown a tendency to correlate with short-term swing reversals, signaling potential exhaustion or loss of momentum.
2️⃣ Mean & Deviation Framework
A configurable mean (moving average) is plotted with up to four deviation bands.
Deviation bands provide contextual boundaries for price targets and help visually frame volatility expansion or compression.
An optional filter allows HIT labels to require alignment with the first deviation band.
3️⃣ Stochastic RSI Projection (Indicator Pane)
The lower pane displays live Stochastic RSI %K and %D values.
A historical Stoch RSI pattern is cloned and projected forward in time, creating a time-based momentum forecast.
The projection highlights anticipated crossing points between %K and %D before they occur.
A single dynamic “Projected Cross” label marks the next expected crossing location.
Vertical reference lines and directional arrows help visualize projected momentum shifts.
Important Note on Timeframes
The projection logic is optimized for the Daily timeframe.
Other timeframes may require different lookback settings for meaningful alignment.
Price-based targets and deviation logic function on any timeframe.
🔧 User Controls
ATR length and multiplier
Mean length and deviation depth
Number of deviation bands displayed
Label visibility and history limits
Projection visibility and forward shift
Optional normalization of projected momentum
Visual toggles for arrows, vertical lines, and labels
📈 How to Use
Observe the active price target forming with each new candle.
Watch whether price hits or fails to hit the target before the next candle.
Use deviation bands to contextualize where targets sit within volatility structure.
Reference the Projected Cross in the lower pane to anticipate potential momentum transitions.
Look for confluence between unhit targets and projected momentum shifts as potential inflection zones.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator is a visual analysis and decision-support tool.
It does not generate trade signals and should be used in conjunction with proper risk management and additional market context.

Liquidity Sweep of Candle & Swing @MaxMaserati 3.0MMM Liquidity Sweep Detector for single candle sweep and/or Swing Sweep
Identify liquidity sweeps with precision. A sweep occurs when price wicks through a key level (previous candle high/low or swing point) but closes back inside the range - indicating a failed breakout and potential reversal.
The set includes: Sweep Low, 50% of wick, TGT level
KEY FEATURES:
- Two Detection Modes: Track sweeps on previous candle levels OR swing highs/lows (pivot points)
- Both Mode: View candle and swing sweeps simultaneously
- Visual Clarity: Each sweep displays three extending lines (SWH/SWL, Target, 50% wick), box zone, and swept level with red X marker
- Smart Updates: When price creates new sweep levels without hitting targets, the entire sweep structure automatically relocates to the new level
- Double-Sided Logic: When both sides are swept on one candle, the indicator intelligently places the sweep on the longest wick side
SWEEP DEFINITION:
Bullish Sweep: Price wicks BELOW a low but closes ABOVE it (back inside range)
Bearish Sweep: Price wicks ABOVE a high but closes BELOW it (back inside range)
The indicator only creates sweeps on unviolated levels - levels that haven't been closed through yet. This ensures you're trading genuine liquidity sweeps, not broken levels.
CUSTOMIZATION:
- Adjustable swing lookback period
- Multiple box placement options
- Full color and display controls
- Invalidation options (Sweep High/Low or 50% Wick)
- Statistics panel showing active sweeps and completion rates
Perfect for traders using ICT concepts, Smart Money Theory, or institutional order flow analysis. Identify where large players are hunting liquidity before reversing price.

Institutional Zone Detector [Scalping-Algo]█ OVERVIEW
The Institutional Zone Detector identifies key supply and demand zones where large market participants (institutions, banks, hedge funds) have likely placed significant orders. These zones often act as powerful support and resistance levels, making them strategic areas for trade entries and exits.
This indicator is non-repainting, meaning once a signal appears on your chart, it will never disappear or change position. What you see in backtesting is exactly what you would have seen in real-time.
█ CORE CONCEPT
Markets move when large players execute substantial orders. These orders leave footprints in the form of specific candlestick patterns:
Demand Zones (Bullish)
When institutions accumulate positions, we often see a bearish candle followed by a strong bullish sequence. The last bearish candle before this move marks the demand zone - an area where buying pressure overwhelmed sellers.
Supply Zones (Bearish)
When institutions distribute positions, we typically see a bullish candle followed by a strong bearish sequence. The last bullish candle before this move marks the supply zone - an area where selling pressure overwhelmed buyers.
Price has a tendency to revisit these zones, offering potential trade opportunities.
█ HOW IT WORKS
The indicator scans for:
1. A potential zone candle (bearish for demand, bullish for supply)
2. A sequence of consecutive candles in the opposite direction
3. Optional: A minimum percentage move to filter weak signals
When all conditions are met, the zone is marked on your chart with:
• Upper and lower boundaries (solid lines)
• Equilibrium/midpoint level (cross marker)
• Extended channel lines for easy visualization
█ SETTINGS
Consecutive Candles Required (Default: 5)
Number of same-direction candles needed after the zone candle to confirm the pattern. Higher values = fewer but stronger signals.
Minimum Move Threshold % (Default: 0.0)
Minimum percentage price movement required to validate a zone. Increase this to filter out weak moves and focus on significant institutional activity.
Display Full Candle Range (Default: Off)
• Off: Shows Open-to-Low for demand zones, Open-to-High for supply zones
• On: Shows complete High-to-Low range of the zone candle
Show Demand/Supply Zone Channel (Default: On)
Toggle extended horizontal lines that project the zone levels across your chart.
Visual Theme (Default: Dark)
Choose between Dark (white/blue) or Light (green/red) color schemes.
Show Statistics Panel (Default: Off)
Displays a floating panel with exact price levels of the most recent zones.
Display Info Tooltip (Default: Off)
Shows an information label with indicator documentation.
█ HOW TO USE
Entry Strategies
1. Zone Bounce (Mean Reversion)
• Wait for price to return to a previously identified zone
• Look for rejection candles (pin bars, engulfing patterns) at zone levels
• Enter in the direction of the original zone (long at demand, short at supply)
• Place stops beyond the zone boundary
2. Zone Break (Momentum)
• When price breaks through a zone with strong momentum
• The broken zone often becomes the opposite type (broken demand becomes supply)
• Use for trend continuation trades
3. Equilibrium Trades
• The midpoint (cross marker) often acts as a magnet for price
• Can be used as a first target or as an entry point for scaled positions
Risk Management
• Always place stop-loss orders beyond zone boundaries
• Consider the zone width when calculating position size
• Wider zones = wider stops = smaller position size
• Use the equilibrium level for partial profit taking
Best Practices
• Higher timeframes produce more reliable zones
• Zones on multiple timeframes (confluence) are stronger
• Fresh/untested zones are more powerful than zones that have been touched multiple times
• Combine with other analysis methods (trend direction, volume, market structure)
█ ALERTS
Two alert conditions are available:
• "Demand Zone Identified" - Triggers when a new demand zone is detected
• "Supply Zone Identified" - Triggers when a new supply zone is detected
To set up alerts: Click on the indicator name → Add Alert → Select condition
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
• This indicator is a tool for analysis, not a complete trading system
• Signals are NOT automatic buy/sell recommendations
• Always use proper risk management
• Past performance does not guarantee future results
• Works on all markets and timeframes
• Non-repainting: Signals appear only after bar close confirmation
