Multi-Timeframe PivotDescription:
This script provides an advanced tool for multi-timeframe pivot point
analysis. It identifies swing points based on a candle's relationship to
its neighbors. The default strength settings of 1 align with the Inner
Circle Trader (ICT) concept of market structure.
The ICT concept defines a swing point based on a simple 3-candle pattern:
- A swing high is a candle where the candles to the immediate left and right
both have lower highs.
- A swing low is a candle where the candles to the immediate left and right
both have higher lows.
A key feature is its ability to accurately calculate and translate pivot
points from up to five higher timeframes (HTFs) and display them
precisely on a lower timeframe (LTF) chart.
NOTE: This indicator is designed to show HTF data on an LTF chart.
If you select a timeframe in the settings that is lower than your
current chart's timeframe, it will show pivots for the chart's
timeframe instead.
Core Features:
- Up to five independent higher timeframes.
- Per-timeframe customization for pivot strength (left/right bars) and color.
- Optional "Watchlines" that project the price of each pivot forward,
complete with a text label identifying the timeframe.
- An optional "Alignment Model" that colors the background when price is
aligned across all active timeframes (requires at least 2 TFs to be enabled).
Default State:
For a clean initial application, the Watchlines and Alignment Model features
are disabled by default but can be enabled in the settings.

ATR Stop-Loss with Fibonacci Take-Profit [jpkxyz]ATR Stop-Loss with Fibonacci Take-Profit Indicator
This comprehensive indicator combines Average True Range (ATR) volatility analysis with Fibonacci extensions to create dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels. It's designed to help traders set precise risk management levels and profit targets based on market volatility and mathematical ratios.
Two Operating Modes
Default Mode (Rolling Levels)
In default mode, the indicator continuously plots evolving stop-loss and take-profit levels based on real-time price action. These levels update dynamically as new bars form, creating rolling horizontal lines across the chart. I use this mode primarily to plot the rolling ATR-Level which I use to trail my Stop-Loss into profit.
Characteristics:
Levels recalculate with each new bar
All selected Fibonacci levels display simultaneously
Uses plot() functions with trackprice=true for price tracking
Custom Anchor Mode (Fixed Levels)
This is the primary mode for precision trading. You select a specific timestamp (typically your entry bar), and the indicator locks all calculations to that exact moment, creating fixed horizontal lines that represent your actual trade levels.
Characteristics:
Entry line (blue) marks your anchor point
Stop-loss calculated using ATR from the anchor bar
Fibonacci levels projected from entry-to-stop distance
Lines terminate when price breaks through them
Includes comprehensive alert system
Core Calculation Logic
ATR Stop-Loss Calculation:
Stop Loss = Entry Price ± (ATR × Multiplier)
Long positions: SL = Entry - (ATR × Multiplier)
Short positions: SL = Entry + (ATR × Multiplier)
ATR uses your chosen smoothing method (RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA)
Default multiplier is 1.5, adjustable to your risk tolerance
Fibonacci Take-Profit Projection:
The distance from entry to stop-loss becomes the base unit (1.0) for Fibonacci extensions:
TP Level = Entry + (Entry-to-SL Distance × Fibonacci Ratio)
Available Fibonacci Levels:
Conservative: 0.618, 1.0, 1.618
Extended: 2.618, 3.618, 4.618
Complete range: 0.0 to 4.764 (23 levels total)
Multi-Timeframe Functionality
One of the indicator's most powerful features is timeframe flexibility. You can analyze on one timeframe while using stop-loss and take-profit calculations from another.
Best Practices:
Identify your entry point on execution timeframe
Enable "Custom Anchor" mode
Set anchor timestamp to your entry bar
Select appropriate analysis timeframe
Choose relevant Fibonacci levels
Enable alerts for automated notifications
Example Scenario:
Analyse trend on 4-hour chart
Execute entry on 5-minute chart for precision
Set custom anchor to your 5-minute entry bar
Configure timeframe setting to "4h" for swing-level targets
Select appropriate Fibonacci Extension levels
Result: Precise entry with larger timeframe risk management
Visual Intelligence System
Line Behaviour in Custom Anchor Mode:
Active levels: Lines extend to the right edge
Hit levels: Lines terminate at the breaking bar
Entry line: Always visible in blue
Stop-loss: Red line, terminates when hit
Take-profits: Green lines (1.618 level in gold for emphasis)
Customisation Options:
Line width (1-4 pixels)
Show/hide individual Fibonacci levels
ATR length and smoothing method
ATR multiplier for stop-loss distance
Intra-bar Close/Open Gap [YuL]Just checking one idea: look at gaps between close and open bars on lower timeframe to try to estimate how much slippage exists there that may be a result of buying or selling pressure.
Perhaps it only useful in real time to see if situation of the current bar is changing.
Open to ideas and suggestions.
Pattern Finder with MTF Boxes (Break - Fixed)Script Title:
MTF Supply/Demand Zone Indicator with Candlestick Pattern Confirmation
Short Description:
This advanced strategy identifies key Supply and Demand zones (Order Blocks) on higher timeframes (30m & 1h) and then waits for a pullback to these zones on the current timeframe. The final entry signal is triggered upon the appearance of a valid candlestick pattern (e.g., Hammer, Engulfing) within these zones.
Full Description:
Introduction & Core Concept
This script is a powerful trading tool based on a combination of the following concepts:
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis: Identifying significant structures on higher timeframes to understand the bigger market picture.
Supply and Demand Zones: Finding areas where an imbalance between buyers and sellers has caused strong price movements.
Candlestick Patterns: Using classic candlestick patterns as the final confirmation for entering a trade at these key zones.
The main idea is to avoid trading blindly and instead wait for the price to react to a significant zone, then enter with a confirmation signal.
How the Strategy Works (Step-by-Step)
Identifying the Key Pattern on Higher Timeframes:
The script continuously monitors the 30-minute and 1-hour charts to find a specific pattern: a short consolidation period (usually 1-4 candles) immediately followed by a breakout with a powerful, high-momentum candle (Long Bar). This pattern indicates the formation of a fresh Supply or Demand Zone.
Drawing the Supply and Demand Boxes:
Green Box (Demand Zone): When a minor high is broken by a bullish Long Bar, this area is identified as potential support and marked with a green box.
Red Box (Supply Zone): When a minor low is broken by a bearish Long Bar, this area is identified as potential resistance and marked with a red box.
White Box (Long Bar / Trigger Zone): This box highlights the range of the Long Bar candle itself. A break of or return to this zone provides important signals.
Waiting for a Pullback:
After a zone is identified and drawn, the strategy waits for the price on your current chart to pull back into this box.
Entry Confirmation with Candlestick Patterns:
Once the price enters the box, the script looks for reversal candlestick patterns:
In a Demand Zone (Green Box): It looks for bullish patterns like the Hammer, Bullish Engulfing, Bullish Harami, and Morning Star. Upon detection, a BUY label appears on the chart.
In a Supply Zone (Red Box): It looks for bearish patterns like the Hanging Man, Shooting Star, Bearish Engulfing, Bearish Harami, and Evening Star. Upon detection, a SELL label appears.
Breakout Signal:
In addition to reversal signals, if the price breaks the White Box (Long Bar Zone) in the opposite direction, a breakout signal is generated, which could indicate a trend continuation.
Visual Elements on the Chart
Green/Red Boxes: The primary Supply and Demand zones from higher timeframes.
White Boxes: The range of the Long Bar candle that activated the primary zone.
BUY/SELL Labels: Trade signals that appear after a candlestick confirmation within the zones.
Moving Averages (SMA 100 & 200): Included to help identify the overall market trend. Trades aligned with the trend are generally more reliable.
Input Settings
period ATR & Bar multiplayer: Allow you to customize the definition of a "Long Bar" based on market volatility.
Number of candle for long bar avrage: The lookback period for calculating the average candle body size.
multiplayer for tp: A multiplier to calculate the take-profit based on the stop-loss size (Risk-to-Reward ratio).
How to Use This Strategy
Apply the script to your main trading timeframe (e.g., 5-minute or 15-minute).
Wait for a Supply (Red) or Demand (Green) zone to be drawn on your chart.
Be patient and wait for the price to return to this zone.
If a BUY or SELL label appears, consider it a valid entry signal.
Always combine these signals with your own analysis and the overall market context.
Disclaimer: This script is an analytical tool and should not be the sole basis for your trading decisions. Always practice proper risk management and thoroughly backtest its performance before using it in a live account.
EMA Trend Dashboard
Trend Indicator using 3 custom EMA lines. Displays a table with 5 rows(position configurable)
-First line shows relative position of EMA lines to each other and outputs Bull, Weak Bull, Flat, Weak Bear, or Bear. EMA line1 should be less than EMA line2 and EMA line 2 should be less than EMA line3. Default is 9,21,50.
-Second through fourth line shows the slant of each EMA line. Up, Down, or Flat. Threshold for what is considered a slant is configurable. Also added a "steep" threshold configuration for steep slants.
-Fifth line shows exhaustion and is a simple, configurable calculation of the distance between EMA line1 and EMA line2.
--Lines one and five change depending on its value but ALL other colors are able to be changed.
--Default is somewhat set to work well with Micro E-mini Futures but this indicator can be changed to work on anything. I created it to help get a quick overview of short-term trend on futures. I used ChatGPT to help but I am still not sure if it actually took longer because of it.
MTF Order Flow DashboardThe MTF Order Flow Dashboard is a compact, real-time table overlay that provides an at-a-glance view of market structure across three key timeframes:
✅ 1-Minute
✅ 5-Minute
✅ 1-Hour
//If extra 1 min is added to candle closure countdown wait till next tick for correction//
This tool is designed to help traders quickly assess directional bias, detect structure shifts, and stay aware of upcoming candle closes — a powerful aid for scalping, day trading, or momentum-based strategies.
Pivot-Based Market Structure Detection

Order + Breaker Blocks MTF - Vees Hidden LiquidityThis indicator is a Hidden Liquidity Script, being a much more refined and precise version of "Order Blocks" also known as "Supply and Demand" zones.
This script is more refined and precise as this script is the only script that displays the exact body part of blocks on multiple timeframes, showing potentially powerful price reversal zones for taking a long or short.
This is a PRICE ACTION indicator, demonstrating price action that can result in potential good support/resistance levels for taking a long or short trade.
This indicator only displays the body part of order blocks, instead of including wicks that all other indicators do. That makes this script a much more refined version of all other scripts out there.
Not only that, this script can collate multiple timeframes into one indicator, again something other scripts cannot do.
This script is also unique compared to other Hidden Liquidity style scripts in that you have full control over each Order Block so you can see each individual block on a chart, whilst other charts combine them into a zone instead. This refined version gives you precise potential entries and much further refinement as well as more thorough backtesting capabilities.
This script also can highlight order blocks that pass THROUGH a Fair Value Gap. These are known as 'Breaker Blocks'. These powerful blocks can be places of interest as support or resistance for a long or short trade. Note: This script shows the body part of a block only and not the wick.
Breaker Blocks, where significant displacement has occurred in price past a block can be more powerful. This script does not highlight Fair Value Gaps themselves, only order blocks (supply and demand) and breaker blocks through displacement in price (through an FVG). FVGs on their own can be weaker without order blocks behind them hence they are not highlighted.
The BODY of the order block, and the 0.5 of the order block are key regions for considering a trade, treating that level as either resistance or support.
Important: PLEASE NOTE: This indicator will only show timeframes that are higher than or the same as the current chart timeframe.
For Example, only blocks 3 Days or higher will show on a 3D chart. It will not show 12h blocks on a 3D chart. You would need to go to a 12 hour chart with the 12h blocks showing to see all Blocks that are 12h or higher drawn.
SETTINGS:
There is options to change the colours of the boxes and to differentiate between Order Blocks and stronger Breaker Blocks if desired.
If this is NOT desired, make all color options the same color,.
Shown below is blue Order Blocks (Supply and Demand
Shown below there is Pink Breaker Blocks.
There is options to weaken the colour of blocks that have been tapped by a wick and thus partially used up, also called partially "mitigated".These blocks can be considered weaker support/resistance.
Once a block has had a wick or body close over it entirely, the block can be considered fully "mitigated" and will disappear from the indicator once that candle has closed. This block level can now be considered too weak. You can also choose to not show these partially mitigated blocks at all.
The charts above shows pale Violet blocks as partially mitigated or "tapped" blocks.
The blocks in HOT BRIGHT Violet are untapped and potentially stronger levels for a Long or Short trade. See below the 7h.
Additional SETTINGS:
Further options include, if selected: Counting the number of fair value gaps an order block may pass through. More FVGs an order block (now a breaker block) passes through can strengthen the support of that block level, making a reversal more likely.
There is an option of showing old mitigated order blocks and changing the color of these on the chart. This can aid in backtesting of levels.
Further Settings include:
- an option to remove very thin blocks that may not be strong points.
- an option to denote with a character such as a * blocks that have their EQ 0.5 region wicked - these can be considered weaker.
- an option to denote with an additional * or another character blocks that are barely tapped by a small percent so you know they are still considered quite strong.
- an option to show how many candles form the order block.
Additional Options include:
- an option to show blocks only within a specific price range or percent range of the current price.
- an option to only look X number of bars back.
There is Options regarding labelling, and Border widths on boxes.
It is ESSENTIAL to do your own research and backtesting!
It is recommended to combine these levels with other concepts for added confluence.
Other indicators are NOT included in this script. This is purely a refined order block script for the BODY of a block only.
You can combine Order Blocks and stronger versions known as Breaker Blocks in this script with other indicators or concepts to form a Full Trading Strategy.
Other potential concepts to combine, not shown in this script can include Smart Money Concepts, Market Structure, Fibonnaccis, SMAs, EMAs or any other concept to give added confluence to the support / resistance levels identified in this script that may indicate that the level is stronger.
This indicator is not a trading strategy on its own. It is best used in combination with other concepts to improve the success.
Backtesting this indicator is highly recommended and incorporated into a full trading system of your own design. This only identifies possible key regions based on Price Action Strategies.
This indicator simply makes the identification of these hot levels easier and simpler to find, especially across multiple timeframes.
A strong bright zone on the indicator can be a stronger level than a weak partial block that is in light colours.
Again -Please do your own research and backtesting.
These indicators make finding these levels much much simpler and easier when combined with a full trading strategy.
Any feedback is welcome.

Normalized Volume IndexIn the realm of technical analysis, volume is more than just a measure of market activity—it’s a window into trader psychology. Two classic indicators that harness this insight are the Positive Volume Index (PVI) and Negative Volume Index (NVI). Developed in the early 20th century by Paul L. Dysart and later refined by Norman G. Fosback in 1976, these tools aim to distinguish between the behavior of the so-called “smart money” and the broader market crowd.
- Positive Volume Index (PVI) tracks price changes only on days when trading volume increases. It assumes that rising volume reflects the actions of less-informed retail traders—those who follow the herd.
- Negative Volume Index (NVI), on the other hand, focuses on days when volume decreases, under the premise that institutional investors (the “smart money”) are more active when the market is quiet.
This dichotomy allows traders to interpret market sentiment through the lens of volume behavior. For example, a rising NVI during a price uptrend may suggest that institutional investors are quietly accumulating positions—often a bullish signal.
Traders use PVI and NVI to:
- Confirm trends: If NVI is above its moving average, it often signals a strong underlying trend supported by smart money.
- Spot reversals: Divergences between price and either index can hint at weakening momentum or upcoming reversals.
- Gauge participation: PVI rising faster than price may indicate overenthusiastic retail buying—potentially a contrarian signal.
These indicators are often paired with moving averages (e.g., 255-day EMA) to generate actionable signals. Fosback’s research suggested that when NVI is above its one-year EMA, there’s a high probability of a bull market.
While PVI and NVI are cumulative indices, normalizing them—for example, by rebasing to 100 or converting to percentage changes—offers several benefits:
- Comparability: Normalized indices can be compared across different assets or timeframes.
- Clarity: It becomes easier to visualize relative strength or weakness.
- Backtesting: Normalized values are more suitable for algorithmic strategies and statistical analysis.
Normalization also helps when combining PVI/NVI with other indicators in multi-factor models, ensuring no single metric dominates due to scale differences
In essence, PVI and NVI offer a nuanced view of market dynamics by separating the noise of volume surges from the quiet confidence of institutional moves. When normalized and interpreted correctly, they become powerful allies in a trader’s decision-making toolkit.
How to use this (Educational material):
For instance, on average, when the Negative Volume Index (NVI) remains above its midline, the market tends to trend positively, reflecting consistent institutional participation. However, when the NVI dips and stays below the midline, it often signals a negative trend, indicating that smart money is stepping away or reducing exposure.
Another telling scenario occurs when the Positive Volume Index (PVI) drops below the NVI. While this might coincide with a brief price dip, institutions often interpret this as an opportunity to buy the dip, quietly accumulating positions while retail participants exit in panic. The result? A market recovery driven by smart money.
Conversely, when the PVI consistently remains above the NVI, it may point to retail enthusiasm outpacing institutional support. This imbalance can flag a tired or overextended trend, where the smart money has already positioned itself defensively. When this pattern persists, there's a high likelihood that institutions will pull the plug, leading to a pronounced trend reversal.
Simple Market Kill-Zones + Open (UTC)What it does
This Pine v6 indicator highlights the “kill-zones” around the big session opens—Asian (23:00–03:00 UTC), London (07:00–09:00 UTC) and New York (13:30–15:30 UTC)—by reading each bar’s actual UTC timestamp. It also draws dashed vertical lines at exactly 23:00, 07:00 and 13:30 UTC, so you never miss the liquidity ramps. Because it uses raw UTC hours/minutes, it stays accurate even when exchanges pause (e.g. Nano-BTC’s daily halt) or your chart’s display timezone changes.
Key Inputs
Show Asia/London/NY Kill Zone – toggle each shaded band on/off
Zone Colors – pick your own semi-transparent hues
Show Session-Open Lines – enable dashed verticals at the exact open times
Line Colors – customize the line opacity and style
How to use
Apply on your favorite timeframe (15 min–1 h is a sweet spot).
Toggle the zones you care about and pick readable colors.
Use the dashed lines as entry triggers or as visual bookmarks.
In your own Pine strategies, wrap order logic with the zone booleans to only trade when liquidity’s alive.
RTH Candles Overlay--Overview
Unlock a new way to analyze Regular Trading Hours (RTH) with this powerful indicator! Designed for traders who focus on the 09:30–16:00 market session (default EST), it redefines hourly price action by aligning candlesticks with the RTH start at 09:30, rather than the standard XX:00. It also plots hourly high/low lines and projection zones to pinpoint potential support, resistance, and price targets. Plus, it displays compact hourly candlesticks on the right side of your chart for quick, at-a-glance analysis.
--Key Features
Shifted RTH Candles: Unlike standard hourly candles starting at XX:00, this indicator aligns candles with the RTH open at 09:30 (e.g., 09:30–10:30, 10:30–11:30). This captures true market momentum from the opening bell, offering a more accurate view of price action.
Session High/Low Lines: Marks the high and low prices for each session with clear, labeled lines (e.g., “0930-1030 High”) to highlight key levels.
Projection Zones: Draws shaded boxes above and below each session’s range (default: 0.25 and 0.5 Projection levels) to show potential price targets or reversal zones.
Shifted Candlesticks: Displays each shifted Hour as a candlestick (open, high, low, close) on the right side of the chart, with bullish candles in green and bearish in gray for easy comparison.
Vertical Markers: Dotted vertical lines mark the start of each period (e.g., 09:30) for clear time segmentation.
Historical Analysis: View up to 5 days of past sessions to spot trends and recurring levels.
Fully Customizable: Adjust session times, timezone, colors, and projection levels to fit your trading style.
--How It Works
RTH-Aligned Candles: The indicator divides the trading day into up to seven sessions (default: hourly from 09:30 to 16:00 EST). Each session starts at times like 09:30, 10:30, etc., aligning with the RTH open instead of standard hourly intervals. This shift ensures you see price action as it unfolds during key market hours.
High/Low Lines: Horizontal lines mark the highest and lowest prices for each session, with customizable labels for easy reference.
Fibonacci Zones: Shaded boxes extend above (0.25 to 0.5 times the session’s range) and below (–0.25 to –0.5) each session’s high/low, highlighting potential price targets or areas where price may reverse.
Candles: Each shifted hour is summarized as a candlestick on the right side of the chart, showing open, high, low, and close prices. Bullish candles are green, bearish are gray, and you can adjust their size and spacing.
Vertical Lines: Dotted lines at the start of each session (e.g., 09:30) help you visualize session boundaries.
Historical Data: Analyze up to 5 days of past sessions to identify patterns or key levels.
--Settings
Timezone: Set your market’s timezone (default: EST, -4 hours).
Session Times: Customize up to seven sessions (default: hourly from 09:30 to 16:00).
Max Days to Plot: Show up to 5 days of historical sessions (default: 1 day).
Candle Styles: Toggle session candles, adjust width, spacing, and offset. Customize bullish (green) and bearish (gray) colors.
High/Low Lines: Enable/disable high/low lines, set color (default: gray), style (solid, dotted, dashed), and label size. Optionally show session open lines and labels.
Fibonacci Zones: Turn projection zones on/off, adjust levels (default: 0.25 and 0.5), and choose fill color (default: translucent gray).
Vertical Lines: Toggle session start lines and customize their color and style.
--Best Used For
Day Trading: Spot key levels and price targets during RTH sessions, aligned with the 09:30 market open.
RTH Analysis: Get a clearer picture of price action with candles that match the market’s true rhythm, starting at 09:30 instead of XX:00.
Fibonacci Trading: Use projection zones to identify potential support, resistance, or breakout levels.
Session Comparison: Compare price action across sessions using compact candlesticks and historical data.
--How to Use
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart (works best on 1-hour or lower timeframes).
2. Set the timezone and session times to match your market (default: 09:30–16:00 EST).
3. Enable/disable features like Fibonacci zones, high/low lines, or session candles in the settings.
4. Use the shaded zones to anticipate price targets or reversals based on Fibonacci levels.
5. Analyze session candles and historical data to spot trends or recurring levels.
--Why This Indicator?
The RTH Session Candles with projection Zones indicator is a game-changer for traders who want to focus on the market’s true rhythm. By aligning candles with the 09:30 RTH open, it captures price action as it happens, unlike standard hourly charts. Paired with projection zones and clear session markings, it’s a simple yet powerful tool to identify key levels and potential price moves. Perfect for day traders, swing traders, or anyone who wants a cleaner, more precise view of the market.

ICT Sensitive Key Levels [Mariinus]Indicator Overview – Inspired by ICT Concepts
This indicator is inspired by the teachings of Inner Circle Trader (ICT), whose philosophies and principles have greatly shaped the way I view price action. One of the most powerful lessons that stuck with me is his quote:
"All you need is OHLC."
Another fundamental concept that underpins this tool is the idea that:
"Price is constantly moving in cycles from Premium or Discount to Equilibrium, from Equilibrium to Discount to Premium."
With these core ideas in mind, this indicator was developed to help traders who are already using an ICT-based framework. In addition to plotting the standard OHLC levels, the ICT Sensitive Key Levels indicator also includes derived levels that provide deeper Market insight. These include the Equilibrium of the full candle range (High to Low) as well as the Equilibrium of the wicks – offering a more nuanced view of price balance and potential turning points, in line with ICT’s core concepts.
⚠️ Important Disclaimer:
This is not a standalone trading plan.
This is not a buy or sell signal generator.
Instead, this tool is designed to support traders who follow ICT principles by helping them identify higher-probability PD Arrays – the key zones where setups are more likely to occur. If your trading plan includes looking for specific PD Arrays and structural frameworks taught by ICT, then this indicator is a visual aid to refine and focus your attention on the areas where your framework has a higher probability of playing out.
🔁 Backtesting & Daily Preparation
In addition to improving your real-time analysis, this indicator is also a valuable tool for accelerated backtesting . Rather than manually drawing out levels, the indicator automatically provides them, allowing you to analyze past price action faster and more efficiently .
It’s also ideal for preparing your trading day . By loading the indicator before the session starts, you get a clear visual of key levels that may play a role in your strategy. And if you find the chart too cluttered with lines, simply copy the ones that matter to you, draw them manually, and then turn the indicator off to keep your chart clean while keeping your zones intact.
⚙️ Explanation of the Settings
You can combine up to 4 timeframes to monitor their respective levels while operating on a lower timeframe. For each timeframe, you can:
• Set a lookback period to control how far back you want to calculate levels.
• Choose to display or hide the levels of the current candle , which helps you monitor intra-candle ebbs and flows.
Each level (e.g., High, Low, Open, Close, Equilibrium) can be customized:
• Color
• Line style
• Line width
• To hide a level , simply set its opacity to zero.
You can also enable dividers to clearly mark the start and end of higher timeframe candles on your lower timeframe chart. These dividers are also fully customizable:
• Color
• Style
• Width
• And again, if you prefer a cleaner chart, you can set the opacity to zero to hide them completely.
This setup gives you full control over how much or how little visual data you want to see, aligning the tool with your personal trading workflow.
💡 Example Use Cases
These examples are for educational purposes only. This tool is not financial advice and should always be used in conjunction with your own trading plan—whether it involves Fair Value Gaps, Order Blocks, or a custom combination of ICT-based elements.
• Example 1: A 1H Bearish Fair Value Gap overlapping with the Equilibrium Key Level of the Previous Day's Range – a high-probability zone for reaction.
• Example 2: A 1H Bullish Fair Value Gap in Discount, overlapping with the Equilibrium of Two Days Ago, followed by a move into a 1H Bearish Order Block that coincides with the Previous Day’s Equilibrium.
• Example 3: The same 1H PD Arrays viewed from a 4H chart, alongside Weekly Price Levels – giving you a higher timeframe context that supports or invalidates lower timeframe setups.
• Example 4: A combination of two timeframes for added context. A 4H Bullish Fair Value Gap is nested inside the current Weekly Equilibrium Key Level . On the 15M chart , we observe a reaction that creates an Inversion Fair Value Gap , which aligns with the Equilibrium Key Level of the previous 4H candle .
This indicator doesn’t replace your trading plan—it enhances your ability to execute it. It’s a precision tool made for ICT traders who understand context, structure, and probability.

Fisher Transform Background StripesThe "Fisher Transform Background Stripes" indicator is an easy-to-use tool that helps traders identify extreme market conditions using the Fisher Transform, a technical indicator that normalizes price data to highlight potential reversals. It displays colored background stripes on your chart to show when the market is oversold or undersold, making it simple to spot trading opportunities.
How It Works:Fisher Transform Calculation: The indicator calculates the Fisher Transform based on a user-defined period (default: 9), using the average of high and low prices to measure market momentum and identify extreme price movements.
Oversold/Undersold Levels: It highlights when the Fisher Transform is above a user-set oversold level (default: 3.0) with red background stripes, or below an undersold level (default: -2.0) with green background stripes.
Visual Feedback: Red and green stripes appear on the chart to mark oversold or undersold conditions, helping you quickly understand market extremes.
Customization: You can adjust the Fisher Transform period, oversold/undersold levels, background colors, and transparency. You can also enable an optional Fisher Transform plot or display values on the chart for debugging.
Wait for Close Option: You can choose whether the indicator waits for the timeframe’s candle to close before showing stripes, ensuring more reliable signals.
Alerts: Optional alerts notify you when the Fisher Transform crosses into oversold or undersold zones (always using confirmed values for accuracy).
Who It’s For: This indicator is ideal for beginner and intermediate traders looking for a clear, visual way to track extreme market conditions and potential reversals using the Fisher Transform.
Key Features:Colored background stripes for oversold (red) and undersold (green) conditions.
Customizable settings for period, levels, colors, and transparency.
Option to wait for candle close for more accurate signals.
Optional Fisher Transform plot and value display for analysis.
Alerts to notify you of key Fisher Transform level crossings.
This indicator provides a straightforward way to monitor market extremes and make informed trading decisions.
RSI OS/OB Background StripesThe "RSI OS/OB Background Stripes" indicator is a simple tool designed to help traders visualize overbought and oversold market conditions using the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It highlights these conditions by displaying colored background stripes directly on your chart, making it easy to spot potential trading opportunities.
How It Works:RSI Calculation: The indicator calculates the RSI, a popular momentum indicator that measures the speed and change of price movements, using a default period of 14 (customizable).
Overbought/Oversold Levels: It marks areas where the RSI is above a user-defined overbought level (default: 70) with red background stripes, and below an oversold level (default: 30) with green background stripes.
Visual Feedback: The colored stripes appear on the chart when the RSI enters overbought (red) or oversold (green) zones, helping you quickly identify market conditions.
Customization: You can adjust the RSI period, overbought/oversold levels, background colors, and transparency. You can also choose to show the RSI line in a separate panel or display RSI values on the chart for debugging.
Alerts: The indicator includes optional alerts that notify you when the RSI crosses into overbought or oversold territory.
Who It’s For: This indicator is perfect for beginner and intermediate traders who want a clear, visual way to track RSI-based overbought and oversold conditions without cluttering their charts.
Key Features:Easy-to-read background stripes for overbought (red) and oversold (green) conditions.

Alerts to keep you informed of key RSI level crossings.
This indicator is a straightforward way to monitor market momentum and make informed trading decisions.
Order + Breaker Blocks HTFThis indicator is a Hidden Liquidity Script, being a much more refined and precise version of "Order Blocks" also known as "Supply and Demand" zones.
This script is more refined and precise as this script is the only script that displays the exact body part of blocks on multiple timeframes, showing potentially powerful price reversal zones for taking a long or short.
This is a PRICE ACTION indicator, demonstrating price action that can result in potential good support/resistance levels for taking a long or short trade.
This indicator only displays the body part of order blocks, instead of including wicks that all other indicators do. That makes this script a much more refined version of all other scripts out there.
Not only that, this script can collate multiple timeframes into one indicator, again something other scripts cannot do.
This script is also unique compared to other Hidden Liquidity style scripts in that you have full control over each Order Block so you can see each individual block on a chart, whilst other charts combine them into a zone instead. This refined version gives you precise potential entries and much further refinement as well as more thorough backtesting capabilities.
This script also can highlight order blocks that pass THROUGH a Fair Value Gap. These are known as 'Breaker Blocks'. These powerful blocks can be places of interest as support or resistance for a long or short trade. Note: This script shows the body part of a block only and not the wick.
Breaker Blocks, where significant displacement has occurred in price past a block can be more powerful. This script does not highlight Fair Value Gaps themselves, only order blocks (supply and demand) and breaker blocks through displacement in price (through an FVG). FVGs on their own can be weaker without order blocks behind them hence they are not highlighted.
The BODY of the order block, and the 0.5 of the order block are key regions for considering a trade, treating that level as either resistance or support.
Important: PLEASE NOTE: This indicator will only show timeframes that are higher than or the same as the current chart timeframe.
For Example, only blocks 3 Days or higher will show on a 3D chart. It will not show 12h blocks on a 3D chart. You would need to go to a 12 hour chart with the 12h blocks showing to see all Blocks that are 12h or higher drawn.
SETTINGS:
There is options to change the colours of the boxes and to differentiate between Order Blocks and stronger Breaker Blocks if desired.
If this is NOT desired, make all color options the same color,.
Shown below is blue Order Blocks (Supply and Demand)
Shown below there is Pink Breaker Blocks.
There is options to weaken the colour of blocks that have been tapped by a wick and thus partially used up, also called partially "mitigated".These blocks can be considered weaker support/resistance.
Once a block has had a wick or body close over it entirely, the block can be considered fully "mitigated" and will disappear from the indicator once that candle has closed. This block level can now be considered too weak. You can also choose to not show these partially mitigated blocks at all.
The chart above shows pale Violet blocks as partially mitigated or "tapped" blocks.
The blocks in HOT BRIGHT Violet are untapped and potentially stronger levels for a Long or Short trade.
See below and example of a HOT PINK stronger level with a 1,2,3,4,5 Days of blocks in the one area.
See below an example of a weaker pink level. Still valid, but potentially riskier. There is a weaker 5D Block in pale pink and no other days in that same zone.
Additional SETTINGS:
Further options include, if selected: Counting the number of fair value gaps an order block may pass through. More FVGs an order block (now a breaker block) passes through can strengthen the support of that block level, making a reversal more likely.
There is an option of showing old mitigated order blocks and changing the color of these on the chart. This can aid in backtesting of levels.
Further Settings include:
- an option to remove very thin blocks that may not be strong points.
- an option to denote with a character such as a * blocks that have their EQ 0.5 region wicked - these can be considered weaker.
- an option to denote with an additional * or another character blocks that are barely tapped by a small percent so you know they are still considered quite strong.
- an option to show how many candles form the order block.
Additional Options include:
- an option to show blocks only within a specific price range or percent range of the current price.
- an option to only look X number of bars back.
There is Options regarding labelling, and Border widths on boxes.
It is ESSENTIAL to do your own research and backtesting!
It is recommended to combine these levels with other concepts for added confluence.
Other indicators are NOT included in this script. This is purely a refined order block script for the BODY of a block only.
You can combine Order Blocks and stronger versions known as Breaker Blocks in this script with other indicators or concepts to form a Full Trading Strategy.
Other potential concepts to combine, not shown in this script can include Smart Money Concepts, Market Structure, Fibonnaccis, SMAs, EMAs or any other concept to give added confluence to the support / resistance levels identified in this script that may indicate that the level is stronger.
This indicator is not a trading strategy on its own. It is best used in combination with other concepts to improve the success.
Backtesting this indicator is highly recommended and incorporated into a full trading system of your own design. This only identifies possible key regions based on Price Action Strategies.
This indicator simply makes the identification of these hot levels easier and simpler to find, especially across multiple timeframes.
A strong bright zone on the indicator can be a stronger level than a weak partial block that is in light colours.
Again -Please do your own research and backtesting.
These indicators make finding these levels much much simpler and easier when combined with a full trading strategy.
Any feedback is welcome.

Xcalibur Signals & Alerts [AlgoXcalibur]An advanced trend-following algorithm forged to empower retail traders with an edge.
Xcalibur Signals & Alerts is a sophisticated, multi-layered algorithm designed to consistently deliver real-time trend signals—without clutter or unnecessary complexity. The system combines refined trend-following logic with breakout detection, flat-market filtration, false signal failsafes, take profit cues, live alerts, and more — all in a visually simple, easy-to-use indicator built for all assets, timeframes, and market conditions.
🧠 Algorithm Logic
Xcalibur Signals & Alerts operates on a systematic framework that evaluates multiple technical dimensions in harmony—directional alignment, momentum confirmation, relative strength, volume bias, breakout detection, Fibonacci calculations, and more. Rather than reacting to isolated triggers, it filters every opportunity through a multi-layered confirmation engine. It doesn’t just react to every move—it evaluates them. This cohesive approach ensures that each signal results from aligned conditions—not arbitrary thresholds. By combining structural awareness with adaptive filtering, Xcalibur maintains clarity and consistency across a wide range of market environments—delivering actionable signals without unnecessary noise or lag.
⚙️ User-Adjustable Features
• Adjustable Sensitivity:
Choose from 5 pre-tuned Signal Trigger Settings and 3 dynamic Confirmation Filter Modes to tailor the system to your trading style, asset, and timeframe. Candle color reflects the active trigger condition, while an adaptive cyan line displays the selected Confirmation Filter—blocking signals until the filter threshold is crossed.
• Directional Stability Filter: When enabled, this filter uses mean-reversion calculations to determine directional bias and block unreliable signals during choppy, indecisive price action. A magenta line represents this filter threshold and provides higher-confidence signals during periods of low directional conviction.
• Pullback Allowance Filter:
When enabled, this unique filter uses Fibonacci ratios to deliberately block signals from temporary pullbacks during strong trend periods. A green (uptrend) or red (downtrend) line marks the active pullback allowance zone.
• False Signal Failsafe
:
Two selectable modes:
Simple — Cancels the signal if price breaks the signal candle’s high or low.
Advanced — Requires both a price break and opposing momentum confirmation.
When triggered, the system plots a white “X” signal, turns candles gray, disables the background color, sends an alert (if enabled), and enters standby mode until a valid trend condition re-emerges.
• Reaction Zones:
Identifies probable reversal or breakout zones based on recent price action patterns. A yellow line appears when active, with a yellow caution flag plotted if the price reaches this critical area.
• Take-Profit Cues
: Automatically detects potential trend exhaustion using price action structure and momentum shifts. When triggered, a visual “TP” marker is plotted—advising traders to manage profits or prepare for a possible reversal.
• Trailing Stop:
Plots a dynamic, percentage-based trailing stop or trailing take-profit using your selected input. Adjust it to suit your risk tolerance and asset.
• Multi-Timeframe Monitor
: Displays real-time trend direction across 1m, 2m, 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, and 1D timeframes in a compact, easy-to-read table.
• Alert System
:
Receive desktop and/or mobile alerts for:
* New trend signals
* Failsafe triggers
* 9:00 AM Morning Greeting messages with auto re-arming confirmation
(Alerts are limited to 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM Eastern Time)
• SuperCandles
: Highlights strong momentum moves with a stunning and easily recognizable glow effect.
• Color-Coded Candles & Background
: Candles reflect the current trigger condition, while the background tint tracks the most recent trend—enhancing situational awareness.
*All input settings include tooltips to guide users through setup and interpretation.
⚔️ Not Just Another Signal Tool
Xcalibur Signals & Alerts was built from the ground up to empower retail traders with access to a cohesive, structured algorithmic system—one that reflects the kind of awareness, discipline, and market adaptability found in professional-grade algorithms.
This is not another oversensitive or under-responsive signal indicator that is limited to one specific type of market condition or trader. It does not utilize hyperactive triggers, rely on lagging crossover logic, or need infinitely adjustable and complex sensitivity settings.

Order Blocks v2Order Blocks v2 – Smart OB Detection with Time & FVG Filters
Order Blocks v2 is an advanced tool designed to identify potential institutional footprints in the market by dynamically plotting bullish and bearish order blocks.
This indicator refines classic OB logic by combining:
Fractal-based break conditions
Time-level filtering (Power of 3)
Optional Fair Value Gap (FVG) confirmation
Real-time plotting and auto-invalidation
Perfect for traders using ICT, Smart Money, or algorithmic timing models like Hopplipka.
🧠 What the indicator does
Detects order blocks after break of bullish/bearish fractals
Supports 3-bar or 5-bar fractal structures
Allows OB detection based on close breaks or high/low breaks
Optionally confirms OBs only if followed by a Fair Value Gap within N candles
Filters OBs based on specific time levels (3, 7, 11, 14) — core anchors in many algorithmic models
Automatically deletes invalidated OBs once price closes through the zone
⚙️ How it works
The indicator:
Tracks local fractal highs/lows
Once a fractal is broken by price, it backtracks to identify the best OB candle (highest bullish or lowest bearish)
Validates the level by checking:
OB type logic (close or HL break)
Time stamp match with algorithmic time anchors (e.g. 3, 7, 11, 14 – known from the Power of 3 concept)
Optional FVG confirmation after OB
Plots OB zones as lines (body or wick-based) and removes them if invalidated by a candle close
This ensures traders see only valid, active levels — removing noise from broken or out-of-context zones.
🔧 Customization
Choose 3-bar or 5-bar fractals
OB detection type: close break or HL break
Enable/disable OBs only on times 3, 7, 11, 14 (Hopplipka style)
Optional: require nearby FVG for validation
Line style: solid, dashed, or dotted
Adjust OB length, width, color, and use body or wick for OB height
🚀 How to use it
Add the script to your chart
Choose your preferred OB detection mode and filters
Use plotted OB zones to:
Anticipate price rejections and reversals
Validate Smart Money or ICT-based entry zones
Align setups with algorithmic time sequences (3, 7, 11, 14)
Filter out invalid OBs automatically, keeping your chart clean
The tool is useful on any timeframe but performs best when combined with a liquidity-based or time-anchored trading model.
💡 What makes it original
Combines fractal logic with OB confirmation and time anchors
Implements time-based filtering inspired by Hopplipka’s interpretation of the "Power of 3"
Allows OB validation via optional FVG follow-up — rarely available in public indicators
Auto-cleans invalidated OBs to reduce clutter
Designed to reflect market structure logic used by institutions and algorithms
💬 Why it’s worth using
Order Blocks v2 simplifies one of the most nuanced parts of SMC: identifying clean and high-probability OBs.
It removes subjectivity, adds clear timing logic, and integrates optional confluence tools — like FVG.
For traders serious about algorithmic-level structure and clean setups, this tool delivers both logic and clarity.
⚠️ Important
This indicator:
Is not a signal generator or financial advice tool
Is intended for experienced traders using OB/SMC/time-based logic
Does not predict market direction — it provides visual structural levels only

Signal Analysis & Usage Guidelines
Buy Signal Mechanics
The buy signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bearish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle reclaims a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key support level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
Sell Signal Mechanics
The sell signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bullish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle rejects below a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key resistance level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
When to TAKE Signals
High Probability Buy Signals:
Signal appears AT or BELOW the VAL (Value Area Low)
Signal occurs at bullish order block confluence
Price is in LVN area below VAL (momentum acceleration zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% support
Multiple session POC levels provide support confluence
Previous session's VAL acting as current support
High Probability Sell Signals:
Signal appears AT or ABOVE the VAH (Value Area High)
Signal occurs at bearish order block confluence
Price is in HVN area above VAH (heavy resistance zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% resistance
Multiple session POC levels provide resistance confluence
Previous session's VAH acting as current resistance
When to AVOID Signals
Avoid Buy Signals When:
Signal appears ABOVE the VAH (buying into resistance)
Price is in HVN red zones (high volume resistance areas)
No clear support structure below current price
Volume profile shows heavy selling pressure (high bear percentages)
Signal occurs during low-volume periods between major sessions
Multiple bearish order blocks exist below current price
Avoid Sell Signals When:
Signal appears BELOW the VAL (selling into support)
Price is in LVN green zones (momentum could continue)
No clear resistance structure above current price
Volume profile shows heavy buying pressure (high bull percentages)
Signal occurs during Asian session ranges without clear direction
Multiple bullish order blocks exist above current price
Volume Profile Context for Signals
Understanding Bull/Bear Percentages:
70%+ Bull dominance at a level = Strong support expected
70%+ Bear dominance at a level = Strong resistance expected
50/50 Split = Neutral zone, less predictable
Use percentages to gauge conviction behind moves
POC (Point of Control) Interactions:
Signals above POC in uptrend = Higher probability
Signals below POC in downtrend = Higher probability
Signals against POC bias require extra confirmation
POC often acts as magnetic level for price return
Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: VAL/VAH Bounce Strategy
Wait for price to approach VAL (support) or VAH (resistance)
Look for signal confirmation at these critical levels
Enter with tight stops beyond the Value Area
Target opposite boundary or next session's levels
Strategy 2: Order Block + Volume Confluence
Identify order block alignment with VAL/VAH
Wait for signal within the confluence zone
Enter on signal with stop beyond order block
Use LVN areas as acceleration zones for targets
Strategy 3: LVN/HVN Strategy
LVN (Green) Areas: "Go Zones" - expect quick price movement through low volume
HVN (Red) Areas: "Stop Zones" - expect resistance and potential reversals
NPOC Areas: "Fill Zones" - price often returns to fill single print gaps
Strategy 4: Multi-Session Analysis
Use Daily/Weekly for major structure context
Use 4H for intermediate levels
Use 1H for precise entry timing
Ensure all timeframes align before taking signals
Strategy 5: Fibonacci + Volume Profile
Buy signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAL
Sell signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAH
Use 88.6% level as final support/resistance before major moves
50% level often aligns with POC for confluence
Signal Quality Assessment
Grade A Signals (Highest Probability):
Signal at VAL/VAH with order block confluence
Fibonacci level alignment (61.8%, 78.6%)
Volume profile shows 70%+ dominance in signal direction
Multiple timeframe structure alignment
Signal occurs during high-volume sessions (London/NY)
Grade B Signals (Moderate Probability):
Signal near POC with some confluence
Fibonacci 50% or 38.2% alignment
Mixed volume profile readings (50-70% dominance)
Some timeframe alignment present
Signal during overlap sessions
Grade C Signals (Lower Probability):
Signal with minimal confluence
Weak fibonacci alignment or none
Volume profile neutral or against signal
Conflicting timeframe signals
Signal during low-volume periods
Risk Management Guidelines
Position Sizing Based on Signal Quality:
Grade A: Standard position size
Grade B: Reduced position size (50-75%)
Grade C: Minimal position size (25%) or skip entirely
Stop Loss Placement:
Beyond order block boundaries
Outside Value Area (VAL/VAH)
Below/above fibonacci confluence levels

Important Disclaimers
This indicator is a technical analysis tool designed for educational purposes. It does not provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or trading signals that guarantee profits. All trading involves substantial risk of loss, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Users should conduct their own research, understand the risks involved, and consider consulting with qualified financial advisors before making trading decisions. The signals and analysis provided are based on historical price patterns and volume data, which may not predict future market movements accurately.
Best Practices
Never trade signals blindly - always consider volume profile context
Wait for confluence between multiple tools before entering
Respect the Value Area - avoid buying above VAH or selling below VAL
Use session context - Asian ranges vs London/NY breakouts
Practice proper risk management - position size based on signal quality
Understand the bigger picture - use multiple timeframes for context
Remember: Like the IDKFA cheat code, having all the tools doesn't guarantee success. The key is learning to use them together effectively and understanding when NOT to take a signal is often more important than knowing when to take one.
headmapOverview
Advanced Price-Action Zones is a comprehensive, professional-grade indicator designed to automatically map and visualize the most critical historical price levels on your chart. Moving beyond simple lines, it renders these levels as dynamic, semi-transparent zones, providing an intuitive 'heatmap' of significant support, resistance, and potential liquidity areas.
This tool is built for traders who demand a clean, data-rich chart that adapts in real-time to market movements, with a fully customizable interface for personal tuning.
Core Features
Automated Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Automatically plots the high and low of the previous Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and 12-Hour sessions, forming the backbone of your structural analysis.
Heatmap-Style Visualization: Levels are displayed as colored zones rather than simple lines. This allows you to instantly spot areas of confluence where multiple historical levels overlap, indicating stronger S/R.
Dynamic Daily Highlighting: The most recent previous day's high/low is shown in a primary color (default: yellow). As a new day begins, these zones automatically fade to a distinct historical color (default: grey), keeping your focus on the most relevant and recent price action.
Intraday Liquidity Targets: Temporary 12-hour zones are plotted with "L. Shorts" and "L. Longs" labels, highlighting potential short-term reversal areas or stop-run targets. These zones automatically expire to keep the chart clean.
Daily Range Context: A subtle background fill visualizes the entire range of the previous trading day, extending into the current session to provide immediate context for breakouts or range-bound behavior.
Toggleable Volume Data: Get deeper insights with floating labels showing the volume on the bar that created a key Daily, Weekly, or Monthly level. This feature can be turned on or off in the settings.
Full Customization: Every color for every zone type, background, and text element is fully adjustable via the indicator's input menu.
On-Chart Informative Legend: A clean legend in the top-right corner explains the color-coding and the implied importance of each timeframe.
How to Interpret the Visuals
High-Timeframe Levels (Monthly/Red, Weekly/Orange): Use these major zones to identify significant market turning points, high-probability reversal areas, and logical take-profit targets for swing trades.
Mid-Timeframe Levels (Daily): The yellow zones (most recent) represent the immediate battlefield. A decisive move beyond this area can set the tone for the session. The grey zones provide a historical map of prior daily structures.
Short-Timeframe Levels (12-Hour/Blue): Treat these as intraday targets. They often represent areas where stop-losses and liquidations might be clustered, making them magnets for price in the short term.

Technical Note on lookahead: This indicator correctly uses lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_on when requesting higher-timeframe data. This is the standard, industry-accepted method to ensure that a completed historical value (e.g., the previous day's high) is plotted consistently and accurately across all chart timeframes. It does not "repaint" in the conventional sense of changing past signals, but rather ensures data stability.
