Fair Value Gap Profiles [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script draws and manages Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones by detecting unfilled gaps in price action and then augmenting them with intra-gap volume profiles from a lower timeframe. It is designed to help traders find potential areas where price may return to fill liquidity voids, and to provide extra detail about volume distribution inside each gap to assess strength and likely mitigation. The script automatically tracks each gap, updates its state over time, and can show which gaps are still unfilled or have been mitigated.
🟠 CONCEPTS
A Fair Value Gap is a zone between candles where no trades occurred, often seen as an inefficiency that price later revisits. The script checks each bar to see if a bullish (low above 2-bars-ago high) or bearish (high below 2-bars-ago low) gap has formed, and measures whether the gap’s size exceeds a threshold defined by a volatility-adjusted multiplier of past gap widths (to only detect significantly large gaps). Once a qualified gap is found, it gets recorded and visualized with a box that can stretch forward in time until filled. To add more context, a mini volume profile is built from a lower timeframe’s price and volume data, showing how volume is distributed inside the gap. The lowest-volume subzone is also highlighted using a sliding window scan method to visualise the true gap (area with least trading activity)
🟠 FEATURES
Visual gap boxes that appear automatically when bullish or bearish fair value gaps are detected on the chart.
Color-coded zones showing bullish gaps in one color and bearish gaps in another so you can easily see which side the gap favors.
Volume profile histograms plotted inside each gap using data from a lower timeframe, helping you see where volume concentrated inside the gap area.
Highlight of the lowest-volume subzone within each gap so you can spot areas price may target when filling the gap.
Dynamic extension of the gap boxes across the chart until price comes back and fills them, marking them as mitigated.
Customizable colors and transparency settings for gap boxes, profiles, and low-volume highlights to match your chart style.
Alerts that notify you when a new gap is created or when price fills an existing gap.
🟠 USAGE
This indicator helps you find and track unfilled price gaps that often act as magnets for price to revisit. You can use it to spot areas where liquidity may rest and plan entries or exits around these zones.
The colored gap boxes show you exactly where a fair value gap starts and ends, so you can anticipate potential pullbacks or continuations when price approaches them.
The intra-gap volume profile lets you gauge whether the gap was created on strong or thin participation, which can help judge how likely it is to be filled. The highlighted lowest-volume subzone shows where price might accelerate once inside the gap.
Traders often look for entries when price returns to a gap, aiming for a reaction or reversal in that area. You can also combine the mitigation alerts with your trade management to track when gaps have been closed and adjust your bias accordingly. Overall, the tool gives a clear visual reference for imbalance zones that can help structure trades around supply and demand dynamics.

Enable or disable labels in the “Display” settings group.
Tip: Use the overlay to spot session highs and lows, volatility windows, and institutional liquidity sweeps.
JXMJXRS - Mean Reversion Bands ToolThis indicator highlights when price is likely overextended and may revert back toward its average. It does this by plotting a central mean (EMA, SMA, or VWAP) with dynamic bands based on either standard deviation or ATR. These bands help show how far price has moved from normal levels.
When price moves beyond the outer bands, the background highlights in red or green to signal possible exhaustion. An optional setting allows the highlight to trigger only if the full candle body breaks beyond the band, helping reduce noise from small spikes or wicks.
The inner bands show more moderate overextensions, while the outer bands focus on stronger, less frequent moves. This makes the tool useful in both ranging and trending environments.
The indicator also includes a hidden oscillator that measures how far price is from the mean in standardized units. It stays off by default but can be enabled by advanced users if needed.
This tool works best on higher timeframes, such as the daily chart. It is not a buy or sell signal, but a way to add context and filter low-quality setups by focusing only on significant price extensions.
A red background appears when price closes significantly above the upper volatility band. This suggests that price is stretched far above its normal range and may be entering an overbought or exhausted state. A green background appears when price closes significantly below the lower volatility band, indicating a potential oversold condition. These zones highlight areas where a price reversion or slowdown may be more likely based on statistical extremes.
Enhanced Neowave Wave 1 Finder with ZigZagThis script is an advanced technical analysis indicator for the TradingView platform, written in Pine Script version 5. Its primary goal is to identify potential Elliott Wave "Wave 1" patterns, enhanced with principles from Neowave theory and a custom ZigZag indicator for more accurate pivot detection. The script is designed to be overlaid on the main price chart.
Core Functionality: Blending ZigZag and Neowave
The indicator's methodology is a two-part process. First, it identifies significant price swings using a robust ZigZag indicator. Then, it analyzes these swings based on a set of rules derived from Neowave and classic technical analysis to validate them as potential Wave 1 patterns.
Part 1: ZigZag Integration
The first major component is a comprehensive ZigZag indicator that forms the foundation for all subsequent analysis.
Pivot Detection: The pivots() function is the engine of the ZigZag. It scans the historical price data for significant high and low points (pivots) over a user-defined Length.
Segment Drawing: Once pivots are identified, the script draws lines connecting them, creating the classic ZigZag pattern on the chart.
Extended Direction & Ratios: This is an enhanced feature. The script doesn't just identify highs and lows; it categorizes them as:
Higher High (HH) or Lower High (LH)
Lower Low (LL) or Higher Low (HL)
This classification is crucial for understanding the market structure. It also calculates the price ratio of the most recent ZigZag leg relative to the previous one, which is used later for pattern validation.
Dynamic Updates: The ZigZag is not static. On each new bar, it can update its most recent pivot point if a new, more extreme price (a higher high or a lower low) is printed before the direction officially changes. This ensures the ZigZag is always reflecting the most current and significant price action.
Part 2: Neowave Wave 1 Finder
With the market structure defined by the ZigZag, the second part of the script applies a rigorous set of rules to identify potential Wave 1 patterns. A Wave 1 is the initial move of a new trend in Elliott Wave theory.
Key Validation Criteria
For a price move between two ZigZag pivots to be considered a valid Wave 1, it must pass a series of checks:
Significance: The move must have a minimum percentage change (Minimum Wave Length) and last for a minimum number of bars, filtering out insignificant noise.
Volume Confirmation: A genuine impulse wave is typically supported by increasing volume. The script checks if the volume during the potential Wave 1 is significantly higher than the recent average (Volume Increase Threshold).
Momentum Alignment: The direction of the wave must be confirmed by momentum indicators.
For a bullish (upward) Wave 1, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) must be in a bullish regime (above 50) and the MACD line must be above its signal line.
For a bearish (downward) Wave 1, the RSI must be below 50 and the MACD line must be below its signal line.
Structural Analysis (Impulse vs. Diagonal): The script attempts to differentiate between two types of Wave 1:
Impulse Wave: A strong, clean, and direct move.
Diagonal Wave: A more complex, overlapping, and often wedge-shaped pattern. This is identified by analyzing the time and price complexity of the move, along with the ZigZag leg ratios.
Wave 2 Retracement Check: A critical Neowave rule is that a valid Wave 1 must be followed by a valid Wave 2 retracement. The script looks at the next ZigZag leg to ensure it doesn't retrace more than 100% of the potential Wave 1. It also uses the ZigZag ratios to confirm the retracement falls within typical Fibonacci levels (e.g., 38.2% to 78.6%).
Display and User Interface
The script provides a rich visual experience to aid the trader in their analysis.
Wave Labels and Boxes: When a valid Wave 1 is detected, it is highlighted with a colored line (green for bullish, red for bearish) and a shaded background box. A label clearly marks it as "Wave 1 IMPULSE" or "Wave 1 DIAGONAL".
Fibonacci Retracement Levels: Upon detection of a Wave 1, the script automatically draws key Fibonacci retracement levels (38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%). These levels are potential targets for the end of the subsequent Wave 2, offering potential entry points for a Wave 3 trade.
Information Labels: Additional labels provide at-a-glance confirmation of the conditions, showing whether volume and momentum criteria were met.
Customizable Inputs: Users have extensive control over the indicator's parameters, including the ZigZag length, volume thresholds, RSI levels, and the colors of all visual elements.
Alerts: The indicator can be configured to generate an alert whenever a new bullish or bearish Wave 1 pattern is confirmed, allowing traders to be notified of potential opportunities in real-time.

CRT + PO3 Range Theory Hey everyone, I’ve put together a little script for TradingView that tries to show the classic CRT + PO3 (Power of Three) pattern. It’s still a work in progress, so please use it on a demo account and let me know what you think!
What It Does
Accumulation Phase: On each higher‐timeframe bar (e.g. 2-hour), it draws a shaded zone where price is hanging out. That’s when we assume “big players” are quietly building positions.
Manipulation Phase: If price briefly pokes above or below that zone but then slips back inside, it marks that wick as a shake-out.
Distribution Phase: When price finally closes cleanly outside the zone, it draws another shaded area and drops a “Distribution” label plus a big LONG or SHORT arrow on that bar.
You can tweak it so it only shows signals when a bar closes (no more weird flashing mid-bar), or even allow “direct” Distribution on a clean breakout without waiting for a fake wick first.
How to Set It Up
Add the script from your Indicators list.
Pick your HTF (I like 2-hour or 4-hour).
Turn “Show Zone Labels” on or off—these are the little “Accumulation/Manipulation/Distribution” tags.
Turn “Show Entry Signals” on to get the big LONG/SHORT arrows.
If you hate flicker, check “Show signals only at bar close.”
If you want to catch a swift breakout (no fake-out needed), check “Allow direct Distribution on clean breakout.”
There are also sliders for zone colors, transparency, label size, and how far above/below the bars the labels sit.
Why It’s Still a Beta
I’m not a CRT/PO3 guru—this is more of a hobby project and a little facination for this strategy.
There might be edge cases where it misses a shake-out or flags a Distribution too early.
I take no responsibility for your trades—please only run it on a demo account until we’ve worked out the quirks.
Feedback Wanted!
If you try it out, I’d love to hear:
Did the Manipulation wicks line up where you expected?
Were the Distribution arrows on the right bars?
Any ideas for easier settings or extra alerts?
Thanks for testing and helping me turn this into something solid!
Candle Range Theory (CRT) indicator📌 Indicator Name: Candle Range Theory (CRT) indicator
This indicator detects potential bullish and bearish reversal setups based on specific candlestick price action behavior. It is designed to highlight moments when the market may be rejecting extremes and preparing to reverse direction — but only after confirmation with the closing price.
🔍 How It Works:
Bullish Setup (Long Signal):
The previous candle is bearish (closes lower than it opens).
The current candle makes a lower low than the previous one.
The current candle closes above the previous candle’s close.
Bearish Setup (Short Signal):
The previous candle is bullish (closes higher than it opens).
The current candle makes a higher high than the previous one.
The current candle closes below the previous candle’s close.
Signals are only triggered after the bar is fully closed, to avoid premature entries.
🔔 The script includes alert conditions for both long and short setups so you can receive notifications instantly.
🎥 Inspiration:
The idea for this indicator came from the excellent educational content presented in this video:

HTF Candle Extremes Zigzag (Drawn on LTF)HTF Candle Extremes Zigzag (Drawn on LTF)
This indicator plots zigzag lines connecting the extremes (highs and lows) of Higher Timeframe (HTF) candles directly on your lower timeframe (LTF) chart. It visually highlights trend changes and HTF candle structure by drawing colored lines representing uptrends and downtrends based on HTF candle extremes.
"Key Features"
Higher Timeframe Tracking: Select any HTF to track candle extremes using the built-in security function.
Zigzag Lines: Connects HTF candle lows to highs in an intuitive zigzag pattern.
Trend Indication: Uptrend lines are green, downtrend lines are red (customizable colors).
Customizable Line Width: Adjust the thickness of the zigzag lines for better visibility.
Drawn on Lower Timeframe: All lines appear on your active lower timeframe chart, allowing easy visual correlation.
"How It Works"
The script fetches the open, high, low, close, and time data of the specified HTF candle. It detects new HTF bars and identifies trend direction changes by comparing the highs and lows of consecutive HTF candles.
- When an uptrend is detected, vertical lines are drawn from low to high of the HTF candle, connected to the previous extreme low.
- When a downtrend is detected, vertical lines are drawn from high to low, connected to the previous extreme high.
- Transitions between trends are highlighted by connecting the last extreme of the previous trend to the current extreme, creating a clean zigzag pattern.
Usage Notes:
Ideal for traders who want to visualize HTF market structure and trend changes while analyzing price action on lower timeframes.

Obscure Institutional Candle PatternsThe "Obscure Institutional Candle Patterns" indicator is a specialized tool designed to identify subtle and unconventional candlestick patterns that may signal institutional activity, liquidity grabs, and sophisticated traps. Unlike common patterns like dojis or engulfing candles, this script focuses on nuanced relationships between price, wicks, and volume that often go unnoticed by the average retail trader.
The core idea is that institutional players leave footprints in the market that don't conform to standard textbook patterns. This indicator decodes these footprints, providing traders with potential early warnings or confirmations of significant market moves. Each pattern is plotted with a unique label and color for easy identification, and alerts are available for each signal.
Identified Patterns
Here is a breakdown of the specific patterns this indicator detects:
1. Liquidity Leech
What it is: A candle with an exceptionally long upper or lower wick (more than 3.618 times the body size) that forms on significantly low volume (less than the 20-period average).
Interpretation: This pattern suggests a probe into key price levels. A large institution may be "leeching" liquidity by testing for stop-loss orders without committing significant volume. It can be a precursor to a reversal, as it indicates where liquidity rests.
Plotted as: A small green triangle (Leech).
2. Echo Rejection
What it is: Two consecutive candles that both dip below the midpoint of the previous day's trading range but manage to close above it.
Interpretation: The previous day's midpoint acts as a critical support or resistance level. A single rejection is significant, but a second consecutive rejection—an "echo"—powerfully reinforces the level's strength. This pattern suggests a robust defense of a price level by buyers and can signal the start of a bullish move.
Plotted as: A small orange triangle (Echo).
3. Bleeding Wick Trap
What it is: A series of three consecutive candles, each with a very long lower wick (more than 6.618 times its body size), culminating in a bullish close on the third candle.
Interpretation: This pattern illustrates a sustained battle where sellers repeatedly try to push the price down, but buyers aggressively step in, creating long "bleeding" wicks. The final bullish close suggests the sellers have been exhausted or "trapped," and the buyers have won control, indicating strong accumulation.
Plotted as: A small blue triangle (WickTrap).
4. Time-Shifted Shadow Box
What it is: A bullish reversal candle that occurs after the price retraces into the middle of a bullish candle from two periods ago. This reversal must be accompanied by a massive surge in volume (at least 5 times the 20-period average).
Interpretation: This complex pattern identifies when the market returns to a "shadow" of a previous key level (the midpoint of the candle from two bars back). The aggressive, high-volume reversal from this time-shifted level suggests a powerful institution has stepped in to reverse the short-term retracement with conviction.
Plotted as: A fuchsia label (TS Box).
5. False Containment Body
What it is: A candle that looks like a bullish Harami (body is contained within the prior candle's body) but with two key differences: its entire range (high and low) is also contained, and its body is exceptionally tiny (less than 1/18th the size of the prior candle's body).
Interpretation: While a standard Harami signals indecision or a potential reversal, this pattern suggests a "false" signal designed to deceive. The extremely low volatility and tight range indicate a temporary pause or consolidation with hidden intent, often before a powerful continuation of the previous trend. It traps traders who misinterpret it as a simple reversal signal.
Plotted as: A yellow label (False).
How to Use
Confirmation Tool: Use these signals as a confirmation layer alongside your existing trading strategy. They are not meant to be standalone entry signals.
Context is Key: The effectiveness of these patterns increases significantly when they appear near key support/resistance levels, supply/demand zones, or major moving averages.
Alerts: Enable alerts to be notified in real-time when one of these obscure patterns forms, allowing you to pay closer attention to the price action that follows.
First FVG📘 Indicator Description (English)
First FVG – NY Open is a TradingView indicator designed to automatically identify the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that appears during the New York session, following the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology.
It highlights institutional inefficiencies in price caused by imbalanced price action and helps traders spot high-probability entry zones, especially after the 9:30 AM EST (New York Open).
⚙️ How It Works
Session time: The indicator scans for FVGs starting at 9:32 AM (allowing 3 candles after the NY Open to form).
FVG Conditions:
Bullish FVG: When the high of 2 candles ago is lower than the low of the current candle and the middle candle is bullish.
Bearish FVG: When the low of 2 candles ago is higher than the high of the current candle and the middle candle is bearish.
Only the first FVG per session is drawn, as taught by ICT for setups like Judas Swing or NY Reversal models.
A colored box is drawn to represent the FVG zone.
A dotted horizontal line (CE) is drawn at the midpoint of the FVG box (Consequent Encroachment), a key level watched by smart money traders.
A dashed vertical line is drawn at 9:30 NY time to mark the open.
🧠 How to Use It
Wait for the NY Open (9:30 AM EST) – the indicator becomes active at 9:32 AM.
Watch for the first FVG box of the day. This is often a high-probability reaction zone.
Use the CE line (center of the FVG) as a reference for entries, rejections, or liquidity grabs.
Combine with market structure, PD Arrays, and liquidity concepts as taught by ICT for confluence.
The FVG box and CE line will extend forward for several candles for visual clarity.

Jump Price)This indicator plots visual arrow signals based on specific opening breakout conditions.
🟢 A green upward arrow appears above the bar when:
The current bar’s opening price is greater than the previous bar’s close +10 points, and
The current bar’s open is also higher than the previous bar’s open
🔴 A red downward arrow appears below the bar when:
The current bar’s opening price is lower than the previous bar’s close −10 points, and
The current bar’s open is also lower than the previous bar’s open
These conditions are designed to detect strong opening gaps that suggest potential breakout moves. The indicator is non-repainting and suitable for use in manual signal tracking or alert setup.
Best used on:
Higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily)
Indexes, futures, or assets with noticeable price gaps

Deviations that get highlighted in red/green are calculated to be 2x the amount of price movement in the previous candle, but can be customised to check any deviation size you want in the options panel.
Can be used on any timeframe but you need to specify the number of bars per table column to make it accurate to what you want.
Examples:
If used on the 1 second time frame you could specify bars to 1 and then each column value will check the price as at close on the most recent second for deviations against the close of price on the second prior, showing comparisons up to 30 seconds.
If on the 1 minute time-frame you could specify bars to 2 and then each column value would show deviations from most recent price close to 2 minutes ago, making all 30 columns show deviations for up to an hour.
At the end of the column are 3 orange coloured columns. The first one compares price to 10 bars ago. The second compares current price to 20 bars ago. The 3rd compares current price to 30 bars ago.
In our example on the 1 second above, this would mean deviation is calculated by comparing most recent close to 10 seconds ago, then to 20 seconds ago, and then to 30 seconds ago. The final 3 columns do not highlight red or green, so you can differentiate them properly from the main deviation columns at all times.
Note that the table is rolling - so once it is populated for the first time, only the final column will update while the prior values will shift one column to the left.

MTF Candles [Fadi x MMT]MTF Candles
Overview
The MTF Candles indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who want to visualize higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly on their current chart. Built with flexibility and precision in mind, this Pine Script indicator displays up to six higher timeframe candles, complete with customizable styling, sweeps, midpoints, fair value gaps (FVGs), volume imbalances, and trace lines. It’s perfect for multi-timeframe analysis, helping traders identify key levels, market structure, and potential trading opportunities with ease.
Key Features
- Multi-Timeframe Candles : Display up to six higher timeframe candles (e.g., 5m, 15m, 30m, 4H, 1D, 1W) on your chart, with configurable timeframes and visibility.
- Sweeps Detection : Identify liquidity sweeps (highs/lows) with customizable line styles, widths, and colors, plus optional alerts for confirmed bullish or bearish sweeps.
- Midpoint Lines : Plot the midpoint (average of high and low) of the previous HTF candle, with customizable color, width, and style for enhanced market analysis.
- Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) : Highlight gaps between non-adjacent candles, indicating potential areas of interest for price action.
- Volume Imbalances : Detect and display volume imbalances between adjacent candles, aiding in spotting significant price levels.
- Trace Lines : Connect HTF candle open, close, high, and low prices to their respective chart bars, with customizable styles and optional price labels.
- Custom Daily Open Times : Support for custom daily candle open times (Midnight, 8:30, or 9:30) to align with specific market sessions.
- Dynamic Labels : Show timeframe names, remaining time until the next HTF candle, and interval labels (e.g., day of the week for daily candles) with adjustable positions and sizes.
- Highly Customizable : Fine-tune candle appearance, spacing, padding, and visual elements to suit your trading style.
How It Works
The indicator renders HTF candles as boxes (bodies) and lines (wicks) on the right side of the chart, with each timeframe offset for clarity. It dynamically updates candles in real-time, tracks their highs and lows, and displays sweeps and midpoints when conditions are met. FVGs and volume imbalances are calculated based on candle relationships, and trace lines link HTF candle levels to their originating bars on the chart.
Sweep Logic
- A bearish sweep occurs when the current candle’s high exceeds the previous candle’s high, but the close is below it.
- A bullish sweep occurs when the current candle’s low falls below the previous candle’s low, but the close is above it.
- Sweeps are visualized as horizontal lines and can trigger alerts when confirmed on the next candle.
Midpoint Logic
- A midpoint line is drawn at the average of the previous HTF candle’s high and low, extending until the next HTF candle forms.
- Useful for identifying potential support/resistance or mean reversion levels.
Imbalance Detection
- FVGs : Identified when a candle’s low is above the next-but-one candle’s high (or vice versa), indicating a price gap.
- Volume Imbalances : Detected between adjacent candles where the body of one candle doesn’t overlap with the next, signaling potential liquidity zones.

Internal Candle Strength [LuxAlgo]The Internal Candle Strength tool allows traders to divide each chart bar into multiple rows of custom size and inspect the strength of the lower timeframes trends located within each row.
This tool effectively helps traders in identifying the power dynamic between bulls and bears within multiple areas within each bar, providing the ability to conduct LTF analysis.
🔶 USAGE
The strength displayed within each row ranges from 0% to 100%, with 0% being the most bearish and 100% being the most bullish.
Traders should be aware of the extreme probabilities located at the higher/lower end of the bars, as this can signal a change in strength and price direction.
Traders can select the lower timeframe to pull the data from or the row size in the scale of the chart. Selecting a lower timeframe will provide more data to evaluate an area's strength.
Do note that only a timeframe lower than the chart timeframe should be selected.
🔹 Row Size
Selecting a smaller row size will increase the number of rows per bar, allowing for a more detailed analysis. A lower value will also generally mean that less data will be considered when calculating the strength of a specific area.
As we can see on the chart above (all BTCUSD 30m), by selecting a different row size, traders can control how many rows are displayed per bar.
🔶 SETTINGS
Timeframe: Lower timeframe used to calculate the candle strength.
Row Size: Size of each row on the chart scale, expressed as a fraction of the candle range.

Fair Value Gap [Custom]📌 FVG Indicator – Smart Money Concepts Tool
This script is based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and automatically detects and marks Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on the chart, helping traders identify unbalanced price areas left behind by institutional moves.
🧠 What is an FVG?
An FVG (Fair Value Gap) is the price gap formed when the market moves rapidly, leaving behind a candle range where no trading occurred — typically between Candle 1’s high and Candle 3’s low (in a three-candle pattern). These gaps often signal imbalance, created during structural breaks or liquidity grabs, and may act as retrace zones or entry points.
🛠 Features:
✅ Automatically detects and highlights FVG zones (high-low range)
✅ Differentiates between open (unfilled) and closed (filled) FVGs
✅ Adjustable timeframe settings (works best on 1H–4H charts)
✅ Option to toggle display of filled FVGs
✅ Great for identifying pullback entries, continuation zones, or reversal setups
💡 Recommended Use:
After BOS/CHoCH, watch for price to return to the FVG for entry
Combine with Order Blocks and liquidity zones for higher accuracy
Best used as part of an ICT or SMC-based trading system
