QuantMotions - FVG with Volume TrackingFair Value Gap Detector with Dynamic Shrinking & Volume Analysis
Overview
Advanced Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection indicator with real-time box shrinking and volume delta analysis. Automatically identifies price inefficiencies and tracks institutional volume flow within each gap.
What are Fair Value Gaps?
Fair Value Gaps occur when price moves so rapidly that a "gap" is left between three consecutive candles, creating an inefficiency where no trading occurred. These gaps often act as support/resistance zones that price tends to revisit.
Detection:
- Bullish FVG: When low > high (upward price inefficiency)
- Bearish FVG: When high < low (downward price inefficiency)
Key Features
Dynamic Box Shrinking
FVG boxes automatically shrink as price enters them:
- Bullish FVGs shrink from top as price moves down into the gap
- Bearish FVGs shrink from bottom as price moves up into the gap
- Provides precise visualization of remaining unfilled gap area
Volume Delta Analysis
Tracks volume characteristics for the 3-candle FVG formation:
- Total Volume: Sum of volume from all three FVG candles
- Up/Down Split: Separates buying vs selling pressure
- Delta %: Shows directional bias of volume flow
- Color Coding: Green/Red when volume confirms direction, Orange when it doesn't
Smart Filtering
- ATR-based minimum gap size - Filters out insignificant noise gaps
- Auto-cleanup - Removes fully filled FVGs automatically
- Maximum display limit - Keeps charts clean by limiting visible FVGs
Live Statistics
Real-time stats table showing:
- Active bullish/bearish FVG count
- Average volume delta for each direction
- Fill progress tracking
Settings
Min Gap Size (ATR): Minimum gap size as multiple of ATR(14). Default: 0.3
- Lower values (0.1-0.3): More sensitive, shows smaller gaps
- Higher values (0.5-1.0): More selective, only significant gaps
Max FVGs: Maximum number of FVG boxes to display (5-100)
Remove Fully Filled: Automatically remove FVGs when price completely fills them
Shrink on Partial Fill: Enable dynamic box shrinking as price enters gaps
Show Volume Info: Display volume delta labels at box edges
How to Use
1. Confluence Trading: Look for FVGs that align with your support/resistance levels
2. Volume Confirmation: Check volume delta - strong directional volume increases probability
3. Partial Fills: Watch for price reactions at shrinking FVG boundaries
4. Multiple Timeframes: Use on higher timeframes (4H+) for swing trading, lower timeframes for scalping
Best Practices
- Combine with trend analysis - FVGs in trend direction have higher fill rates
- Pay attention to volume delta - gaps with confirming volume are more reliable
- Use on liquid markets for accurate volume data
- Higher timeframe FVGs typically carry more significance
Notes
- Works on all timeframes and instruments
- Volume data accuracy depends on your data provider
- FVGs are not guaranteed support/resistance - use proper risk management
- This indicator shows historical inefficiencies, not future predictions

Smart Money COTThis indicator implements the method of analysing COT data as defined by Michael Huddleston (I.E. The Inner Circle Trader). It removes all superfluous information contained in the standard COT reports and focusses only on Commercial speculators using the overall Long-Short positions.
Features
The unique feature of this indicator is its ability to look back over time and provide the following information:
Calculation of the range high and low of the specified lookback range.
Calculation of equilibrium of that range.
Automatic colour coding of net long and net short positions when the Long-Short COT calculation is above or below equilibrium of the lookback range.
Instructions
Use the Daily Timeframe only. You may get unexpected results on other timeframes.
Ensure the asset has COT data available. Script is mainly focused on commodity futures, such as ES, NQ, YM. It has not been tested against Forex.
You will need to define the "Lookback" setting in the script settings. Use the total number of trading days required for your analysis. E.g. if you want a 6 month COT analysis, use the measurement tool to count the quantity of daily candles between now and 6 months ago - use this as your Lookback setting. Adjust as needed for other lookback periods, e.g. 3 months, 12 months etc.
Other Info
The script provides the ability to customise colours in its settings.
Range High and Range Low plots can be disabled in settings.
(CRT) MTF Candle Range Theory Model# 🚀 **CASH Pro MTF – Candle Range Theory (CRT) Indicator**
**The Smart Money ICT Setup Detector** 🔥
Hey Traders!
Here is the **ultimate Pine Script indicator** that automatically detects one of the most powerful Smart Money / ICT setups: **Candle Range Theory (CRT)**
---
### What is Candle Range Theory – CRT?
**CRT** is a high-probability price action model based on **liquidity grabs** and **range expansion**.
Price loves to:
1️⃣ Raid the low/high of the previous candle (take stop-losses)
2️⃣ Then reverse and run to the opposite side of the range (or beyond)
When this happens near a **key higher-timeframe level**, magic happens!
### Bullish CRT Model
- Price touches a **strong HTF support**
- Previous candle closes near that support
- Next candle **sweeps the low** (grabs liquidity)
- Current candle **closes above the raided low AND breaks the high** of the sweep candle
**Result → Aggressive bullish move expected!**
**Entry:** On close above the high (or on retest + MSS)
**Stop Loss:** Below the swept low
**Take Profit:** CRT High or next liquidity pool
### Bearish CRT Model
- Price touches a **strong HTF resistance**
- Previous candle closes near resistance
- Next candle **sweeps the high** (grabs buy stops)
- Current candle **closes below the raided high AND breaks the low** of the sweep candle
**Result → Strong bearish expansion!**
**Entry:** On close below the low
**Stop Loss:** Above the swept high
**Take Profit:** CRT Low or next downside liquidity
This whole setup can form in **just 3 candles**… or sometimes more if price consolidates after the sweep.
---

This is a **true CRT + MTF confluence beast** with:
- **Multi-Timeframe Confirmation** (default 4H – fully customizable)
- **Built-in RSI Filter** (avoid fake moves in overbought/oversold)
- **Day-2 High/Low Levels** automatically drawn (the exact CRT range!)
- **Clean “LONG” / “SHORT” labels** right on the candle (no ugly arrows or offset)
- **Background highlight** on signal
- **Fully grouped inputs** – super clean settings panel

30s Model IndicatorThe Model
The 30s model is a NASDAQ (NQ) scalping strategy based on entries within 30-second fair-value gaps (FVGs), formed after liquidity is taken on a higher timeframe.
What the Indicator Does
The indicator identifies liquidity sweeps: swing highs/lows with at least "Left Pivot" bars to the left, capturing at least one prior swing high/low.
It then detects if a 30s FVG formed within "FVG Distance from Swing" bars of the latest liquidity-taking swing high/low.
If found, it verifies the FVG meets the "Minimum FVG Size" and that forming candles didn't hit the take-profit level.
When conditions match, the FVG is highlighted with entry, take-profit, and stop-loss lines, plus optional price labels. The appearance of all the elements can be customized in the indicator settings.
You can also setup alerts on the indicator that will trigger whenever a valid 30s is formed.
Error Conditions

Change in State of Delivery CISD [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script tracks how price “changes delivery” after failed attempts to push in one direction. It builds swing levels from pivots, watches for those levels to be wicked, and then checks if price delivers cleanly in the opposite direction. When the pattern meets the script’s tolerance rules, it marks a Change in State of Delivery (CISD). These CISD levels are drawn as origin lines and are used to spot shifts in intent, failed pushes, and continuation attempts. A CISD becomes stronger when it forms after opposing liquidity is swept within a defined lookback.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The script first defines structure using swing highs/lows. These levels act as potential liquidity points. When price wicks through a swing, the script registers a mitigation event. After this, it looks for a reversal-style candle sequence: a failed push, followed by a counter-move strong enough to pass a tolerance ratio. This ratio compares how far price expanded away from the failed attempt versus the counter-move that followed. If the ratio is high enough, this becomes a CISD. The idea is simple: liquidity interaction sets context , and the tolerance logic identifies actual intent . CISD levels and sweep markers combine these two ideas into a clean map of where delivery flipped.
🟠 FEATURES
Liquidity tracking: marks swing highs/lows and updates them until expiry
Liquidity sweep confirmation when CISD aligns with recent mitigations
Alert conditions for all key events: mitigations, CISDs, and strong CISDs
🟠 USAGE
Setup : Add the script to your chart. Use it on any timeframe where swing behavior matters. Set the Swing Period for how wide a pivot must be. Set Noise Filter to control how strict the CISD detection is. Liquidity Lookback defines how recent a wick must be to confirm a sweep.
Read the chart : Origin lines mark where the CISD began. A green line signals bullish intent; a red line signals bearish intent. ▲ and ▼ shapes show CISDs that form after liquidity is swept, these mark strong signals for potential entry. Swing dots show recent swing highs/lows. Candle colors follow the latest CISD trend.
Settings that matter : Increasing Swing Period produces fewer but stronger swings. Raising Noise Filter requires cleaner counter-moves and reduces false CISDs. Liquidity Lookback controls how strict the sweep confirmation is. Expiry Bars decides how long swing levels remain active.

Thiru 369 LabelsThiru 369 Labels
**Thiru 369 Labels** is a sophisticated time-based indicator that calculates the numerical sum of time digits and displays visual labels when the sum matches harmonic values (3, 6, or 9). Based on the mathematical principles popularized by Nikola Tesla, this indicator helps traders identify potential market timing opportunities during major trading sessions.
📊 What It Does
This indicator monitors the current time (hour and minute) and calculates the sum of all digits, reducing it to a single digit. When this final sum equals 3, 6, or 9, a label is displayed on the chart. The indicator specifically focuses on three major trading sessions:
- **London Session**: 02:30 - 07:00 (GMT-5)
- **NY AM Session**: 07:00 - 11:30 (GMT-5)
- **NY PM Session**: 11:30 - 16:00 (GMT-5)
🔢 How It Works
### Time Sum Calculation
The indicator uses a standard mathematical reduction method:
1. **Extract Digits**: Takes the hour and minute (e.g., 09:51)
2. **Sum All Digits**: Adds all digits together (0 + 9 + 5 + 1 = 15)
3. **Reduce to Single Digit**: Continues reducing until single digit (15 → 1 + 5 = 6)
4. **Check Match**: If result equals 3, 6, or 9, displays label
Examples:
- **03:30** → 0 + 3 + 3 + 0 = **6** ✅ (Perfect 6)
- **12:06** → 1 + 2 + 0 + 6 = **9** ✅ (Perfect 9)
- **09:51** → 0 + 9 + 5 + 1 = 15 → 1 + 5 = **6** ✅
- **14:22** → 1 + 4 + 2 + 2 = 9 ✅ (Perfect 9)
Session Detection
The indicator automatically detects when the current time falls within active trading sessions and only displays labels during these periods. This ensures you're only seeing relevant timing signals during market hours.
Cycle Detection
The indicator can also detect different time cycles within sessions:
- **90-minute cycles**: Major session periods
- **30-minute cycles**: Sub-cycles within sessions

QT Previous Micro Cycle Range + SSMT [bilal]Previous Micro Cycle Range + SMTs - Indicator Description
📊 Overview
This indicator tracks 22.5-minute micro cycles within ICT's Quarterly Theory framework and automatically detects Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergences across correlated indices (NQ, ES, YM). It visualizes previous cycle ranges and identifies high-probability manipulation completions for precise intraday entries.
🎯 What It Does
Micro Cycle Tracking:
Divides each 90-minute session into four 22.5-minute micro quarters
Plots the previous micro cycle's High, Low, Equilibrium (EQ), and Quarter levels
Updates automatically as new micro cycles form
Works on any timeframe (recommended: 1-5 minute charts)
SMT Detection:
Compares current micro cycle vs previous micro cycle across NQ, ES, and YM
Detects Bearish SMT: Divergence at highs (signals distribution down)
Detects Bullish SMT: Divergence at lows (signals distribution up)
Draws visual SMT lines with directional arrows showing correlation/divergence
Optional SMT table showing all three indices' movements
💡 How To Use It
For Scalpers & Day Traders:
Wait for a new micro cycle to begin (lines will refresh every 22.5 minutes)
Watch for SMT formation in the current cycle
Bullish SMT = Buy signal (previous low is confirmed, expect move to previous high)
Bearish SMT = Sell signal (previous high is confirmed, expect move to previous low)
Key Concepts:
Minimum Target: Opposite extreme of previous cycle
SMT Confirmation: One or two indices sweep a level while the other(s) fail to sweep
Best Results: Trade with higher timeframe bias aligned
⚙️ Features
Customizable Display:
Toggle High/Low lines with multiple label styles (Timeframe, Label, %, Fib)
Optional Equilibrium (50%) level
Optional Quarter levels (25% / 75%)
Optional extended range projections (±50% to ±400%)
Adjustable line colors, widths, and label sizes
SMT Options:
Enable/disable SMT detection
Show/hide SMT text labels
Custom colors for bullish/bearish SMTs
Option to delete previous cycle SMTs (keeps chart clean)
Real-time SMT table showing all three indices
Comparison Assets:
Default: ES1! and YM1! (customize to your preference)
Set correlation type for each asset (correlated vs inverse)
Disable individual assets if needed
🔍 Understanding The Visuals
Lines:
Solid lines = Previous cycle High/Low (where price came from)
Dotted lines = EQ and Quarter levels (internal cycle structure)
Green lines = SMT divergence detected (buy/sell signal)
Labels:
▲ = Asset made higher high/low vs previous cycle
▼ = Asset made lower high/low vs previous cycle
🔺 = Inverse correlation (up when others down)
🔻 = Inverse correlation (down when others up)
SMT Logic:
If indices diverge (move opposite directions), SMT is confirmed
Bearish SMT = Highs diverge → Sell
Bullish SMT = Lows diverge → Buy
📈 Best Practices
Use on 1-5 minute charts for optimal micro cycle visualization
Combine with higher timeframe bias (Daily Cycle SSMT, session bias, etc.)
Wait for SMT confirmation before entering trades
Target previous cycle's opposite extreme as minimum profit target
Exit when opposing SMT forms or price reaches target
🛠️ Settings Guide
Essential Settings:

Micro cycles are part of a fractal structure - align with 90-min and Daily Cycle SMTs
🎓 Based On ICT Concepts
This indicator implements concepts from Inner Circle Trader (ICT):
Quarterly Theory (fractal time structure - 22.5 min micro quarters)
Micro cycles (four quarters within each 90-minute session)
Sequential SMT (mechanical divergence confirmation across correlated indices)
Smart Money AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution pattern)
New York session timing (based on ICT's 6-hour daily cycles)
🕐 Micro Cycle Structure
Each 90-minute session divides into four 22.5-minute micro quarters:
Micro Q1: 00:00 - 22:30
Micro Q2: 22:30 - 45:00
Micro Q3: 45:00 - 67:30
Micro Q4: 67:30 - 90:00
This pattern repeats across all 16 daily 90-minute sessions (Q1.1 through Q4.4).
Perfect for: Scalpers and day traders using ICT's Quarterly Theory and SMT concepts for precise micro-level entries on 30-second charts.
Chart Requirement: 30-second timeframe only.
Note: This is a study indicator. It does not generate automatic buy/sell signals - you must interpret SMT formations based on your trading strategy and higher timeframe bias.
ICT Sigma Hybrid FVGThis indicator combines three analytical components—statistical volatility modeling, ICT imbalance logic, and higher-timeframe bias filtering—to help traders interpret displacement-driven price inefficiencies. The goal is to reduce noise and highlight only meaningful FVGs that occur with sufficient volatility and directional context.
Sigma Volatility Zones
The script calculates statistically normalized deviation levels using a multi-regime standard deviation blended with ATR.
This produces adaptive volatility zones that:
Expand during trending or high-volatility periods
Contract during consolidation
Highlight extremes more accurately than fixed standard deviations
These zones help users identify where price is operating in premium/discount relative to recent volatility.
Fair Value Gaps With Displacement Scoring
Every potential FVG is evaluated using a displacement score based on candle body expansion, wick displacement, and relative move efficiency. FVGs that do not exceed the minimum score are filtered out. This ensures the script only displays gaps associated with meaningful movement, not minor pricing noise.
Optional Higher-Timeframe Bias Filter
The HTF bias engine evaluates structure using selected higher-timeframe EMAs.
When enabled, the indicator:
Shows bullish FVGs only in bullish higher-timeframe conditions
Shows bearish FVGs only in bearish conditions
Hides counter-trend FVGs that may have lower reliability
Users may disable this to see all qualifying gaps regardless of bias.
ATR-Adaptive Volatility Conditioning
ATR is blended into the model so the displacement score and sigma zones adjust automatically to sudden volatility changes such as:
Major economic releases
Earnings
High-impact market events
Overnight volatility shifts
This helps maintain consistent FVG quality during rapidly changing conditions.
How to Use the Indicator:
Use sigma levels to understand whether price is extended or discounted relative to recent volatility.
Monitor FVGs that appear within or near sigma extremes to identify potential exhaustion or continuation zones.
Combine HTF bias with LTF displacement gaps to align intraday entries with broader directional flow.
ATR-adjusted scoring helps distinguish between meaningful inefficiencies and low-quality gaps.
Example 1 — Intraday Sigma Expansion & Displacement FVG Reaction
Figure 1. Price collapses from a 4.5σ extreme during a volatility expansion event.
Only high-impact FVGs are shown due to the displacement filter, removing low-quality gaps.
Sigma bands expand dynamically as volatility increases, illustrating how the model adapts automatically.
Example 2 — Higher-Timeframe Sigma Compression After a Major Trend Leg
Figure 2. After a large macro move, sigma levels compress tightly, forming a volatility cluster.
These HTF sigma zones later act as reaction levels during continuation.
This demonstrates why the model blends HTF sigma structure with LTF displacement gaps for alignment.
Recommended Settings
Standard deviation lookback: 100
ATR length: 50
ATR blend weight: 0.5
Minimum Z-score: 1.8
Sigma levels: 1.5 / 3 / 4.5
HTF bias: Daily (optional)
FVG displacement filter: On

ICT Unicorn Model (DeadCat)Overview
This indicator automatically identifies and visualizes ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Unicorn setups by detecting the confluence of Breaker Blocks (BB) and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). The ICT Unicorn setup occurs when a Breaker Block overlaps with a Fair Value Gap Fluxcharts, creating high-probability entry zones based on institutional order flow and price inefficiencies.
Core Concepts:
1. Market Structure Analysis
The script employs a swing-based market structure detection system that identifies:
Higher Highs (HH) and Higher Lows (HL) - Bullish market structure
Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL) - Bearish market structure
This structure analysis uses a 20-period pivot detection system to identify key swing points and determine the prevailing market trend.
2. Order Block & Breaker Block Formation
When an order block fails and price breaks through it while creating a Fair Value Gap, it transforms into a Breaker Block Streetinvestment.
The script identifies this by:
Tracking the last opposing candle before a structural break
Detecting when price closes beyond the order block boundary
Supporting both single candle and consecutive candle modes for zone definition
Bullish Breaker Block: Forms when price breaks below a bullish order block, then rallies higher. The failed support zone becomes a new demand area.
Bearish Breaker Block: Forms when price breaks above a bearish order block, then falls lower. The failed resistance zone becomes a new supply area.
3. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
A Fair Value Gap forms when price moves so rapidly that it creates a three-candle pattern where the high of the first candle does not overlap with the low of the third candle (bullish FVG) or the low of the first candle does not overlap with the high of the third candle (bearish FVG).
The indicator:
Identifies valid FVGs that overlap with the breaker block zone
Prioritizes the FVG closest to the extreme of the move (highest for bullish, lowest for bearish)
Filters FVGs that fall within the swing high/swing low range of the setup.
How The Indicator Works
Step 1: Structure Break Detection
The script continuously monitors market structure. When price breaks a swing high (bullish) or swing low (bearish), it enters "pending confirmation" mode requiring 2+ candles of the same color to confirm the structural shift.
Step 2: Order Block Identification
Upon structure confirmation, the indicator identifies the order block by locating the last opposing candle before the structural break. In consecutive candle mode, it extends the zone to include multiple same-colored candles.
Step 3: Breaker Block Formation
The order block transforms into a breaker block when:
Bullish BB: Price closes below the order block low
Bearish BB: Price closes above the order block high
Step 4: FVG Detection & Unicorn Confirmation
After breaker block formation, the script:
Scans for valid Fair Value Gaps within the swing range
Identifies overlapping FVGs with the breaker block
Confirms the Unicorn setup when both elements align
Creates visual markers (+BB/-BB and +FVG/-FVG labels)
Step 5: Dynamic Level Tracking
On the first candle after BB formation, the indicator tracks swing extremes (swing high for bullish, swing low for bearish) and locks this level after one bar, ensuring stable reference points.
Trading Application
Once price retraces to the fair value gap, traders can enter positions with stop loss placed beyond the breaker block and target a 1:2 risk-to-reward rati.
However, as noted in the warning message, taking all setups without higher timeframe bias or confluence is risky.
Recommended Usage:
- Use the Bias Filter to align with higher timeframe trends
- Combine with multi-timeframe analysis for context
- Wait for additional confirmation (volume, market session, news events)
- Consider implementing risk management rules (1-2% per trade)
Important Limitations
⚠️ Risk Disclosure: While these concepts offer valuable insights into institutional price action and trading setups, no strategy guarantees success, and trading carries significant risk of capital loss.
This indicator identifies mechanical setups without considering broader market context, fundamental factors, or higher timeframe bias.
The indicator shows ALL Unicorn formations based purely on technical structure, which means it will generate signals in both trending and ranging conditions. Traders must apply their own analysis to filter high-probability setups from low-probability ones.
FVG Snper PRO🎯 FVG Sniper — Fair Value Gap Signal Engine
FVG Sniper is a professional imbalance-based entry tool built around the Nasdaq futures (NQ/MNQ) — but the signal logic is general enough to apply to many liquid instruments (indices, FX, crypto, metals).
It automatically detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), tracks their lifecycle, and fires rule-based long/short signals only when price shows decisive intent away from those imbalances.
🔍 What FVG Sniper Does
Detects FVGs automatically (no pivots)
Uses a strict 3-candle pattern to locate bullish and bearish imbalances directly from price action.
Tracks each FVG over time
For every FVG, FVG Sniper tracks:
When it was created
Whether it has ever been tapped
Whether it has been tapped since the last trade
Whether it has been invalidated (“inversion close”)
Session-gated execution
FVGs can be formed and tapped any time.
Only bars inside a defined signal session (e.g. 09:30–12:00 New York time) are allowed to trigger entries.
FVGs are only eligible if they were created on the same trading day as the signal and after a specific time cutoff (e.g. 08:30 ET).
Tap-aware, breakout-based entries
The indicator looks for:
An FVG that has been tapped at least once since the last signal (if tap is required).
A decisive breakout of the previous bar’s high or low coming off that FVG.
Multi-strategy overlay (for advanced use)
On top of the core engine, FVG Sniper offers several optional “Sniper profiles” (strategies) tuned around:
Session timing (e.g. morning / midday windows)
Volatility regimes
Lane cleanliness / opposite-side structure behavior
Range context (distance from session extremes)
You can toggle these profiles on/off to restrict signals to specific conditions — but the exact internal filters and thresholds are not disclosed.
If at least one profile is enabled, a signal prints when any enabled profile likes the setup.
If no profiles are enabled, FVG Sniper shows the raw base FVG breakout signals from the core engine.
🧠 How to Use It
Primary use case: intraday futures (NQ/MNQ) on 1M timeframe.
FVG Sniper works best as:
A signal engine feeding your execution plans, or
A confirmation layer on top of your own context (HTF bias, news, higher-timeframe levels, etc.).
🎨 Visuals & Controls
Bullish and bearish FVG zones are drawn directly on the chart.
Optional mid-lines through each FVG.
Automatic delete or “fade” behavior when FVGs are invalidated.
Clear long/short markers at the signal bar.
Optional debug label to inspect which FVG produced the signal and key reference times.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This script is for educational and research purposes only and is not financial advice.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always validate any signal logic in a simulator and adapt it to your own risk management, instrument, and timeframe.

How to Use It
Set each session’s open time and killzone window according to your broker or desired timezone alignment.
Enable or disable session opens and killzones to frame the trading windows you prioritize (e.g., LDN Killzone or NY session expansion).
Activate key previous period levels (PDH/PDL, PWH/PWL, PMH/PML) and tune the line-length mode and label spacing to match your workflow.
Use timeframe & weekend filters to keep higher-timeframe charts clean while maintaining precise intraday visibility on lower timeframes.
Monitor the session comparison table to understand directional behavior relative to previous sessions and previous day opens.
Watch the ADR panel to classify the day as compressed, normal, or expanded—and anticipate potential reversion or continuation.

Liquidity Sweeps + Swing High/Low — SMC/ICT (@PueblaATH)Liquidity Sweeps + Swing High/Low — SMC/ICT (@PueblaATH) is a liquidity-driven Smart Money Concepts tool that automatically maps out key swing highs and lows, tracks how they evolve into liquidity pools, and highlights when those levels are swept and either respected or invalidated. This indicator is built to give traders a clean, event-driven view of stop runs and liquidity grabs across any timeframe, from scalping to higher-timeframe context.
What the Indicator Does
Swing Structure & Liquidity Pools
Detects swing highs and lows using a configurable swing length, projects levels forward in time, and builds a liquidity-pool database through pivot arrays used for sweep detection.
Liquidity Sweeps (Stop Runs)
Identifies bearish (upward) and bullish (downward) sweeps through prior liquidity levels using three modes: Any Touch, Wick + Close Back, and Retest Rejection.
Each sweep can generate projective lines, labeled markers, and alerts.
Scope, Rate Limiting & Clean Visuals
Controls minimum spacing between swings and sweeps, limits sweep duplication, auto-revokes invalidated sweeps, and restricts the maximum number of visible events.
Smart offset logic reduces label overlap and keeps charts clean even in dense price action.
Timeframe Filters & Utilities
Allows hiding all drawings between specific timeframes and optionally skipping calculations or clearing internal state when hidden.
Includes debug pivot markers and an optional TF/Bucket badge.
Timeframe Auto-Mode (Original Adaptive Engine)
This indicator features a fully original, seven-bucket Auto-Mode engine that adapts sensitivity to the active timeframe.
Bucket Classification (by seconds)
≤1m, >1m–15m, >15m–30m, >30m–1h, >1h–4h, >4h–1d, >1d.
Bucket-Specific Settings
Each bucket has unique sensitivity sets:
Swing/Sweep lengths
Projection distances
Line style and width
Rate-limiting gaps
Pivot count and bar-lookback windows
Overlap windows
Adaptive Behavior
Lower timeframes gain more reactive behavior, while higher timeframes apply smoother and more selective filters.
Manual Override
Auto-Mode can be disabled to use the Core manual settings for full customization.
How to Use It
Attach the indicator and choose whether to keep Auto-Mode ON or OFF.
Select the sweep mode (e.g., Wick + Close Back for ICT-style liquidity grabs).
Adjust label text, size, color, and offsets to your preference.
Use timeframe filters to show drawings only where you want them.
Enable alerts for bullish sweeps, bearish sweeps, or revocations.
Combine sweep events with your own confluence (sessions, bias, OBs/FVGs, etc.).

Gold 1&5 Min Trading Strategy [TradingFinder] XAU Scalper Signal🔵 Introduction
Scalping in financial markets is based on immediate price reactions and precise analysis of price action behavior. In this trading approach, the trader must identify signals that originate directly from market structure, momentum shifts, candlestick formations, and the position of price relative to key zones.
Supply and demand areas serve as the primary regions of order concentration and form the foundation of scalping analysis, since they provide the most accurate representation of balance or imbalance between buyers and sellers as well as the active flow of liquidity in the market.
In demand zones, price reactions usually begin with the formation of reversal or continuation candlestick patterns. These patterns include structures such as Pin Bar, Engulfing, Doji, Failure, Rejection, and other forms of false breakout behavior, each of which can indicate a potential short term change in direction.
Liquidity plays a central role in these reactions, because price entering a demand zone typically coincides with the absorption of sell side liquidity and the restoration of order flow. This process often leads to rapid movements that are suitable for scalping. Therefore, combining candlestick confirmation with the location of price inside a supply or demand zone is one of the most reliable methods of identifying low risk scalping signals.
Demand zones include several structural variations, each representing a different form of liquidity behavior. One of the most well known examples is the order block, which is the final bearish candle before a strong bullish movement and indicates the presence of unfilled buy side interest.
Another important structure is the Fair Value Gap, which appears when a price void forms across three consecutive candles due to a lack of liquidity during the moment of displacement. The market often returns to this area to restore balance. Imbalance structures also represent one sided pressure in order flow where the market reacts later to correct these inefficiencies.
Breaker structure is another key element in demand analysis. A breaker is formed when an order block is violated and price returns to the same level after collecting liquidity, then continues in the opposite direction. This pattern often appears near liquidity based highs or lows and reflects a shift in the strength of market participants.
Together, order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, and breakers form the core of demand analysis in price action and are widely used in precise scalping strategies due to their strong connection with liquidity and the high predictability of price reactions within them.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
This strategy is built on price action analysis, market reactions inside supply and demand zones, and confirmation through candlestick patterns. The first step is to identify key areas such as order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, or breakers.
After these zones are located, price behavior within them is examined using candlestick structure and momentum direction. Entries are taken only when price reaches a validated zone, a clear sign of liquidity absorption or injection appears, and a confirming candlestick forms inside the zone.
This approach allows the trader to capture fast and precise entries during moments when the market is actively reacting to decision points.
🟣 Long Setup
In the buy setup, a valid demand zone must first be identified. This can be a bullish order block, an unfilled bullish Fair Value Gap, an imbalance at the lower part of structure, or a bullish breaker. When price enters this zone and shows signs of absorbing sell side liquidity, candlestick behavior must be examined.
Formation of reversal signals such as a Pin Bar with a long lower wick, bullish Engulfing, Rejection Candle, or a false breakout of the low, indicates a favorable shift in order flow. After receiving candlestick confirmation, a buy entry is taken within the same zone and the stop level is placed below the liquidity boundary. Targets are typically based on filling gaps, reaching supply zones, or returning to structural means.
🟣 Short Setup
In the sell setup, a valid supply zone must be recognized. This may include a bearish order block, a bearish Fair Value Gap, an imbalance at the upper part of structure, or a bearish breaker. When price enters this zone and liquidity accumulates above nearby highs, the probability of a fast momentum shift increases.
Confirmation occurs when a bearish reversal pattern forms such as Engulfing, Pin Bar with a long upper wick, indecisive Doji followed by rejection, or a false breakout of the high. After confirmation, the sell entry is placed and the stop level is set above the liquidity zone. Targets are selected based on filling lower Fair Value Gaps, reaching demand zones, or returning to structural midpoints.
🔵 Settings
Last Candle in Signal Direction : When On, a signal is issued only if the last candle moves in the direction required by the signal.
Signal in Nearly Zone : When enabled, the signal becomes valid even if the candle is near the zone rather than strictly inside it. When disabled, only signals formed inside the zone are allowed.
Allow Both Side Signals : When On, signals from both sides of the structure can be issued even if a limiting level exists. When disabled, only signals that do not violate the limiting level are allowed.
🔵 Conclusion
Using price action, supply and demand zones, and candlestick confirmation alongside liquidity analysis creates an effective framework for identifying fast market reactions in scalping conditions. Focusing on structures such as order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, and breakers allows the trader to recognize shifts in momentum and changes in order flow with greater precision.
In this approach, entries are taken only when price reaches a validated zone, liquidity behavior is observable, and the confirming candle forms at the correct location. This leads to organized, low risk scalping signals that are aligned with the real time behavior of the market.

ICT Sessions Ranges [SwissAlgo]ICT Session Ranges - ICT Liquidity Zones & Market Structure
OVERVIEW
This indicator identifies and visualizes key intraday trading sessions and liquidity zones based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology (AM, NY Lunch Raid, PM Session, London Raid). It tracks 'higher high' and 'lower low' price levels during specific time periods that may represent areas where market participants have placed orders (liquidity).
PURPOSE
The indicator helps traders observe:
Session-based price ranges during different market hours
Opening range gaps between market close and next day's open
Potential areas where liquidity may be concentrated and trigger price action
SESSIONS TRACKED
1. London Session (02:00-05:00 ET): Tracks price range during early London trading hours
2. AM Session (09:30-12:00 ET): Tracks price range during the morning New York session
3. NY Lunch Session (12:00-13:30 ET): Tracks price range during typical low-volume lunch period
4. PM Session (13:30-16:00 ET): Tracks price range during the afternoon New York session
CALCULATIONS
Session High/Low: The highest high and lowest low recorded during each active session period
Opening Range Gap: Calculated as the difference between the previous day's 16:00 close and the current day's 09:30 open
Gap Mitigation: A gap is considered mitigated when the price reaches 50% of the gap range
All times are based on America/New_York timezone (ET)
BACKGROUND INDICATORS
NY Trading Hours (09:30-16:00 ET): Optional gray background overlay
Asian Session (20:00-23:59 ET): Optional purple background overlay
VISUAL ELEMENTS
Horizontal lines mark session highs and lows
Subtle background boxes highlight each session range
Labels identify each session type
Orange shaded boxes indicate unmitigated opening range gaps
Dotted line at 50% gap level shows mitigation threshold
FEATURES
Toggle visibility for each session independently
Customizable colors for each session type
Automatic removal of mitigated gaps
All drawing objects use transparent backgrounds for chart clarity
ICT CONCEPTS
This tool relates to concepts discussed by Inner Circle Trader regarding liquidity pools, session-based analysis, and gap theory. The indicator assumes that session highs and lows may represent areas where liquidity is concentrated, and that opening range gaps may attract price until mitigated.
USAGE NOTES
Best used on intraday timeframes (1-15 minute charts)
All sessions are calculated based on actual price movement during specified time periods
Historical session data is preserved as new sessions develop
Gap detection only triggers at 09:30 ET market open
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It displays historical price levels and time-based calculations. Past performance of price levels is not indicative of future results. The identification of "liquidity zones" is a theoretical concept and does not guarantee that orders exist at these levels or that prices will react to them. Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Users should conduct their own analysis and risk assessment before making any trading decisions.
