IFVG by Toño# IFVG by Toño - Pine Script Indicator
## Overview
This Pine Script indicator identifies and visualizes **Fair Value Gaps (FVG)** and **Inverted Fair Value Gaps (IFVG)** on trading charts. It provides advanced analysis of price inefficiencies and their subsequent inversions when mitigated.
## Key Features
### 1. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
- **Bullish FVG**: Detected when `low > high ` (gap between current low and high of 2 bars ago)
- **Bearish FVG**: Detected when `high < low ` (gap between current high and low of 2 bars ago)
- Visual representation using colored rectangles (green for bullish, red for bearish)
### 2. Inverted Fair Value Gap (IFVG) Creation
- **IFVG Formation**: When a FVG gets mitigated (price fills the gap with candle body), an IFVG is created
- **Color Inversion**: The IFVG takes the opposite color of the original FVG
- Mitigated bullish FVG → Creates red (bearish) IFVG
- Mitigated bearish FVG → Creates green (bullish) IFVG
- **Mitigation Logic**: Uses only candle body (not wicks) to determine when a FVG is filled
### 3. Customizable Display Options
- **Show Normal FVG**: Toggle visibility of regular Fair Value Gaps
- **Show IFVG**: Toggle visibility of Inverted Fair Value Gaps
- **Smart FVG Display**: Even when "Show Normal FVG" is disabled, FVGs that are part of IFVGs remain visible
- **Extension Control**: Option to extend FVGs until they are mitigated
### 4. IFVG Extension Methods
- **Full Cross Method**: IFVG remains active until price completely crosses through it (including wicks)
- **Number of Bars Method**: IFVG remains active for a specified number of bars (1-100)
### 5. Visual Mitigation Signals
- **Cross Markers**: Shows X-shaped markers when IFVGs are mitigated
- Green cross above bar: Bearish IFVG mitigated
- Red cross below bar: Bullish IFVG mitigated
### 6. Comprehensive Alert System
- **IFVG Formation Alerts**: Notifications when new IFVGs are created
- **IFVG Mitigation Alerts**: Notifications when IFVGs are filled/mitigated
- **Separate Controls**: Individual toggles for bullish and bearish IFVG alerts
## How It Works
### Step-by-Step Process:
1. **FVG Detection**: Script continuously scans for 3-bar patterns that create price gaps
2. **FVG Tracking**: Each FVG is stored with its coordinates, type, and status
3. **Mitigation Monitoring**: Script watches for candle bodies that fill the FVG
4. **IFVG Creation**: Upon mitigation, creates an IFVG with opposite polarity at the same location
5. **IFVG Management**: Tracks and extends IFVGs according to chosen method
6. **Visual Updates**: Dynamically updates colors and visibility based on user settings
## Use Cases
- **Support/Resistance Analysis**: IFVGs often act as strong support/resistance levels
- **Market Structure Understanding**: Helps identify how market inefficiencies get filled and reversed
- **Entry/Exit Timing**: Can be used to time entries around IFVG formations or mitigations
- **Confluence Analysis**: Combine with other technical analysis tools for stronger signals
## Configuration Parameters
- **Colors**: Customizable colors for bullish/bearish FVGs and IFVGs
- **Extension**: Choose how long to display gaps on the chart
- **Alerts**: Full control over notification preferences
- **Visual Clarity**: Options to show/hide different gap types for cleaner charts
## Technical Specifications
- **Pine Script Version**: 5
- **Overlay**: True (displays directly on price chart)
- **Max Boxes**: 500 (supports up to 500 simultaneous gaps)
- **Performance**: Optimized array management for smooth operation
This indicator is particularly valuable for traders who use **Smart Money Concepts (SMC)** and **Inner Circle Trader (ICT)** methodologies, as it provides clear visualization of how institutional order flow creates and fills market inefficiencies.
Ict
CHart_This FVGThis script will work on any time frame, and auto plots the classic ICT "fair value gaps", or imbalances, that result from a three candle formation wherein the middle candle body extends beyond the highs and lows of the end candles, leaving no overlap of the first and last candle wicks. Bullish imbalances are green, and bearish are red. Plotted zones will automatically close once a candle closure fully violates the imbalance zone with a close beyond its borders.
ICT HTF Candles + CISD + FVG, by AlephxxiiICT HTF Candles + CISD + FVG
A practical, friendly overlay for ICT-style trading
This indicator gives you three things at once—right on your chart:
HTF Candles Panel (context):
Compact candles from higher timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W) appear to the right of price so you always see the higher-timeframe story without switching charts. It includes labels, remaining time for the current HTF candle, and optional open/high/low/close reference lines.
CISD Levels (bias flips):
Automatically plots +CISD and -CISD lines. When price closes above +CISD, the indicator considers bullish delivery. When price closes below -CISD, it considers bearish delivery. An on-chart table (optional) shows the current bias at a glance.
FVG (Fair Value Gaps):
Highlights inefficiency zones (gaps) on your current timeframe and/or a selected higher timeframe. You can choose to mark a gap “filled” when price hits the midpoint (optional).
Quick start (2 minutes)
Add to chart and keep your normal trading timeframe (e.g., 1–5m).
In settings → HTF 1..6, pick the higher timeframes you want to see (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W).
Turn on FVG (current, HTF or both).
Watch +CISD / -CISD lines and the Current State table.
Close above +CISD → Bullish bias
Close below -CISD → Bearish bias
Trade with the bias and use FVGs as areas to refine entries or targets.
How to read it (the simple way)
Bias (CISD):
Bullish once price closes above the active +CISD level.
Bearish once price closes below the active -CISD level.
The small table (if enabled) says Bullish or Bearish right now.
HTF panel:
Shows higher-timeframe candles next to your current chart.
Labels show the timeframe (e.g., 1H) and a countdown for the current candle.
Optional traces draw HTF Open/High/Low/Close levels—great “magnets” for price.
FVGs:
Shaded boxes = potential inefficiency areas.
If Midpoint Fill is on, a touch of the midline counts as filled.
You can display current TF, HTF, or both.
Suggested workflow (popular ICT-style intraday)
Define bias with CISD
Only look for longs if Bullish, shorts if Bearish.
Check HTF context
Are you trading into a large HTF FVG or key HTF O/H/L/C level? That can be a target or a headwind.
Refine entries with FVGs
On your entry TF (1–5m), use fresh FVGs in the direction of the bias. Avoid fading straight into big HTF imbalances.
Key settings you’ll actually use
HTF 1..6: toggle each strip, select timeframe, and how many candles to show.
Style & layout: adjust offset, spacing, and width of the right-side panels.
Labels & timers: show/hide HTF name and remaining time; place labels at Top/Bottom/Both.
Custom daily open (NY): set the 1D candle to start at Midnight, 08:30, or 09:30 (America/New_York).
Trace lines: optional HTF O/H/L/C lines (style, width, anchor TF).
FVG module (extra): choose Current TF / HTF / Both, enable Midpoint Fill, auto-delete on fill, and show timeframe labels.
CISD lines: customize color, style (solid/dotted/dashed), thickness, and forward extension.
Table: enable/disable and choose its position.
Alerts
When a CISD completes, the script fires an alert (e.g., “Bullish CISD Formed” or “Bearish CISD Formed”).
Tip: Set your TradingView alert once on the indicator, then choose the alert message you want to receive.
Notes & limitations (read me)
“VI” label: The “Volume Imbalance” option marks price imbalances (body non-overlap). It does not read volume data.
Timezone: Daily logic and timers use America/New_York, which aligns with US indices/equities and common ICT practice.
Performance: This tool draws many boxes/lines/labels. If your chart feels heavy, reduce the number of HTFs or candles shown, or narrow panel width.
Repainting: HTF panels are designed to avoid future leakage; FVG logic follows standard 3-bar checks. As usual, wait for candle closes for confirmations.
Level cleanup: If Keep old CISD levels is OFF (default), the script keeps only the current active CISD to reduce clutter.
Smart Money Time (SMT)SMT Divergence – 90m / 30m / 10m (Prev-Cycle, Real-Time, Trailing)
Purpose:
This indicator finds SMT (Smart Money Technique) divergences between two related markets (e.g., CME_MINI:NQ1! vs CME_MINI:ES1! ). It does this per 90m/30m/10m cycles and only compares the current cycle to the immediately previous cycle —never older. It supports three cycle granularities:
90-minute cycles (9 blocks from 02:30–16:00 NY time)
30-minute sub-cycles (27 blocks)
10-minute sub-cycles (81 blocks; exactly 3 per 30-minute cycle)
For each cycle, the script tracks each symbol’s extreme (highest high for potential bearish SMT, lowest low for potential bullish SMT). When the leader sets a new extreme vs its own previous cycle while the lagger fails to do so vs its previous cycle, an SMT divergence is formed and plotted on the chart in real time. Lines trail as price makes new extremes within the same cycle.
What you’ll see on the chart:
A line from the previous cycle’s extreme to the current cycle’s extreme on the symbol pane where the indicator is applied (Primary A).
An optional text label at the current extreme (e.g., “90m SMT”, “30m SMT”, “10m SMT”).
Lines update (“trail”) as the current cycle goes on. When a new cycle begins, tracking resets for that cycle.
Default styling (editable):
90m SMT: solid, width 1, black
30m SMT: solid, width 1, black
10m SMT: dotted, width 1, black
You can toggle the text on/off and change width, style, and colors separately for 90m, 30m, and 10m.
Signals (definitions)
Bearish SMT: One market makes a Higher High vs its own previous cycle, while the other fails to make a Higher High vs its previous cycle.
Bullish SMT: One market makes a Lower Low vs its own previous cycle, while the other fails to make a Lower Low vs its previous cycle.
The line is drawn on Primary A by default.
Settings (explained)
Symbols
Primary Symbol A – the chart’s “leader/lagger” pane the script draws on.
Comparison Symbol B – the second market used for SMT checks.
Detection toggles
Detect SMT: 90m / 30m / 10m – turn on/off detection for each timeframe.
Note: The script always compares current cycle ↔ previous cycle only.
Validate candle direction
When enabled, the bar that makes the new extreme must also close in the confirming direction on that same market:
Bearish SMT: the bar that made the new Higher High must be a down close (close < open).
Bullish SMT: the bar that made the new Lower Low must be an up close (close > open).
This filter removes many “wick-only” probes and reduces false positives.
Turn off if you prefer to register SMTs on any intrabar extreme, regardless of bar close.
Delete SMT when invalidated
After an SMT forms, if the lagger later breaks the previous extreme it initially failed to break, the divergence is considered invalid and the script deletes the line and its label. (An “SMT invalidated” alert can fire if alerts are enabled.)
Enable alerts
Fires on SMT formed (separate messages for 90m/30m/10m and bullish/bearish) and on SMT invalidated.
To use, click Create Alert on the indicator and choose “Any alert() function call”. Use “Once per bar” (or per bar close) to taste.
Appearance – per timeframe (90m / 30m / 10m)
Bullish/Bearish colors, Line width, Line style, Show text (toggle subtitle label).
Text Options
Text color, Text size, Text offset (vertical spacing from the extreme).
How to use
Add to chart and select two related markets, e.g., NQ (A) vs ES (B).
Choose which cycles to monitor (90m / 30m / 10m).
Optionally enable Validate candle direction to demand a confirming close on the bar that made the extreme.
Watch for plotted SMTs:
Bearish SMT (HH vs no HH) often signals potential weakness
Bullish SMT (LL vs no LL) often signals potential strength
Use SMTs as context/confluence—e.g., near session highs/lows, liquidity pools, PD arrays, or your own levels. Combine with structure, order flow, and risk rules.
Turn on alerts to be notified when SMTs form or are invalidated in real time.
Notes & behavior
New-York session timing: Cycles are fixed windows in America/New_York and automatically handle DST.
Real-time & trailing: Lines trail to the most recent extreme within the same cycle but there’s no look-ahead across cycles.
No repaint across cycles: Each signal is strictly current cycle vs previous cycle.
Cleanup: On invalidation the script deletes the label first, then the line, preventing orphan labels.
Tips
10m SMTs are more frequent/noisier; 90m are fewer but more meaningful. Many traders look for multi-frame agreement (e.g., a 30m SMT aligning with a fresh 10m SMT).
If you want fewer signals, keep Validate candle direction on; if you want maximum sensitivity, turn it off.

ICT Multi-Session Hi/L/EQ
Indicator Overview: The "ICT Multi-Session Hi/L/EQ" indicator is a versatile tool designed for traders utilizing Inner Circle Trader (ICT) strategies, enabling the visualization of key price levels—High (H), Low (L), Equilibrium (EQ, the midpoint between high and low), and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) levels at 61.8%, 70%, and 79% of the session range—across up to 6 customizable market sessions on a single chart.
Core Functionality: It dynamically tracks and plots session-specific highs, lows, and EQ, updating in real-time as price action evolves, providing traders with immediate insights into potential support, resistance, and balance zones during defined periods like the Asian, London, or New York sessions. This multi-session capability allows for comprehensive market analysis without the need for multiple indicators.
Unique OTE Auto Detection: A standout feature is the automatic detection and directional calculation of OTE levels. When a session forms a new high, OTE levels are recalculated downward from the high to the low (bearish bias), highlighting potential short entry zones. Conversely, a new low triggers upward OTE levels from the low to the high (bullish bias), signaling long opportunities. This auto-detection adapts to market momentum without manual input, making it highly unique for ICT traders seeking efficient entry signals based on range retracements. No other indicator combines this session-based auto-directionality with OTE percentages tailored for ICT methodologies.
Left-Side Trimming Innovation: Another innovative aspect is the left-side trimming option, which allows users to limit the historical extension of lines to a user-defined number of bars (e.g., the last 8 bars), reducing chart clutter and focusing attention on recent price action. This feature is particularly unique as it addresses a common issue in multi-session indicators where full historical lines can overwhelm the chart, making it ideal for scalpers or day traders who prioritize clarity.
Without trimming the left side:
And when left side trimming is enabled:
Multi-Session Customization: Support for up to 6 independent sessions, each with individual time ranges (HHMM-HHMM format), timezones, and enable/disable toggles, offers unparalleled flexibility. Traders can configure sessions for specific market phases (e.g., Asia: 2000-0000 UTC) and customize colors, line styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and label properties separately, ensuring a personalized setup for global trading environments.
Auto-Deletion at Market Close: Levels can be automatically deleted at the session's calculated market close (17:00 NY timestamp), keeping the chart clean for the next session or day, a useful feature for avoiding accumulation of outdated levels.
Label and Visual Controls: Users can toggle labels on/off, adjust text color, background color, transparency, and size (tiny, small, normal, large), with options to stick labels to the right for better visibility. This level of customization ensures the indicator integrates seamlessly with any chart style.
No External Dependencies: All calculations are performed using built-in Pine Script functions on the chart's price data, making it self-contained and reliable without needing external libraries or data sources.
Professional and Compliant Design: Developed to comply with TradingView House Rules, this indicator is original in its combination of multi-session plotting, directional OTE auto-detection, and left-side trimming, providing traders with a robust tool for ICT-based analysis.
How It Works
Session Setup: Define session times and timezones in settings; the script tracks high/low from session start.
Level Calculation: High/low update on every bar; EQ is the midpoint. OTE levels recalculate directionally upon new extremes.
Drawing Mechanism: Lines extend with user-defined padding; trimming cuts left side for cleanliness.
Update Logic: OTE direction shifts based on new high/low detection, with levels refreshed accordingly.
Deletion: Auto-deletes at session end if enabled, resetting for new sessions.
Uniqueness and Innovation
Session OTE Auto Detection: Automatically adjusts OTE direction based on new highs/lows, a feature not commonly available in other indicators, enabling hands-free bias identification.
Left-Side Trimming: Unique clutter-reduction tool that trims historical lines, improving chart readability—a rare capability in session-based indicators.
Multi-Session Support: Handles 6 sessions independently, with per-session OTE, making it a one-stop tool for global market analysis.
Directional OTE: Adapts to market bias, offering dynamic entry zones tailored to ICT strategies.
Full Customization: Extensive controls for visuals and behavior, ensuring adaptability to individual trading styles.
User Guide: How to Use the "ICT Multi-Session Hi/L/EQ" Indicator
This guide provides a comprehensive, step-by-step explanation of how to use the "ICT Multi-Session Hi/L/EQ" indicator on TradingView. The indicator is designed to help Inner Circle Trader (ICT) enthusiasts plot key price levels—High (H), Low (L), Equilibrium (EQ, the midpoint), and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) levels at 61.8%, 70%, and 79% of the session range—across up to 6 customizable sessions. It also includes a Candle Open line for midnight or custom times. I'll break it down by settings groups, explaining each option, its purpose, how to tweak it, and tips for optimal use. All settings are accessible via the indicator's settings panel (cog icon next to the indicator name on your chart).
General Settings
These control global behaviors that apply to all sessions and levels. They allow you to customize the overall appearance and functionality of the indicator on your chart.
Line Padding (Bars Beyond Current): This integer input (default: 2, minimum: 0) extends the plotted lines beyond the current bar by the specified number of bars.
How to Use/Tweak: Increase this value (e.g., to 5) for longer forward projections of levels, useful for anticipating future price action. Decrease to 0 for no extension. It's ideal for traders who like to see levels projected ahead in volatile markets.
Tip: On lower timeframes (e.g., 5M), higher padding (4-6) helps visualize potential targets; on higher timeframes (1H), keep it low to avoid clutter.
Label Padding (Bars from Line End): An integer (default: 3, minimum: 0) that positions labels away from the end of the lines by the specified bars.
How to Use/Tweak: Adjust to move labels further right (higher value) or closer to the line end (lower value). This prevents label overlap with price action or other indicators.
Tip: If your chart has many labels, set to 5+ for better readability; use 1-2 for minimalistic setups.
Enable Left-Side Trimming: A boolean toggle (default: true) to trim lines from the left, limiting their historical extension.
How to Use/Tweak: Turn on to reduce chart clutter by showing only recent bars of the lines; turn off for full historical view. Pairs with "Left Trim Bars" for fine-tuning.
Tip: Enable for clean charts during live trading; disable for backtesting to see long-term patterns.
Left Trim Bars: An integer (default: 8, minimum: 1) specifying how many bars back from the current bar to trim lines when left trimming is enabled.
How to Use/Tweak: Set higher (e.g., 20) for more historical visibility while trimmed; lower (e.g., 4) for ultra-clean charts focusing on immediate action.
Tip: Use 8-12 for intraday trading on 15M charts; adjust based on timeframe to balance context and clarity.

PreviousDayHLEQCME_MINI:NQ1!
Indicator Overview: The "PreviousDayHLEQ" indicator is an essential tool for traders employing Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodologies, designed to plot the High (H), Low (L), Equilibrium (EQ, the midpoint between high and low), and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) levels at 61.8%, 70%, and 79% of the previous trading day's range. It provides a clear visual reference for potential support, resistance, and entry zones based on the prior day's price action, helping traders anticipate continuations or reversals in the current day. This indicator stands out by incorporating directional OTE auto-detection, adjusting levels based on whether the previous day formed a new high or low relative to the day before, offering insights into market bias without manual recalculation.
Core Functionality: It tracks and displays the previous day's high and low, calculating the EQ as the average for balance points, and OTE levels as percentage retracements of the range. The script uses a user-defined trading day definition (with timezone support) to accurately capture the day's extremes, ensuring alignment with global market sessions. This core setup allows traders to quickly identify key ICT levels like fair value gaps or liquidity pools from the prior day.
Unique OTE Auto Detection: One of the indicator's most innovative features is its automatic detection of OTE direction. If the previous day made a new high compared to the day before, OTE levels are calculated downward from the high to the low (bearish bias), highlighting potential short entries. Conversely, a new low triggers upward OTE levels from the low to the high (bullish bias), signaling long opportunities. This auto-detection is unique, as it dynamically adapts to historical price expansion without user input, a capability not found in standard previous day indicators that typically use fixed directions. It empowers ICT traders to gauge carry-over momentum from the prior day, such as in scenarios where a bullish expansion suggests buying dips to the 61.8% level.
Directional Bias Indication: Beyond plotting levels, the OTE calculation inherently indicates the previous day's bias (expansion upward or downward), providing context for current day trades. This unique bias detection helps traders align with market structure, e.g., favoring shorts if OTE is downward-oriented, enhancing decision-making in ICT frameworks like order block identification.
Left-Side Trimming Innovation: The indicator includes a highly unique left-side trimming option, allowing users to restrict the historical extension of lines to a specified number of bars (e.g., the last 8 bars). This reduces visual clutter on charts with long history, focusing attention on recent and relevant price action—a feature rarely seen in previous day indicators, where lines often span the entire chart and obscure current developments. Traders can toggle trimming on/off and adjust the bar count, making it ideal for clean, professional setups.
Customization and Visual Controls: Users can fully customize line colors (separate for high, low, EQ, and each OTE level), styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and label properties (text color, background color, transparency, size). This level of granularity ensures the indicator fits any chart theme or strategy, with options to enable/disable individual elements like EQ or OTE for minimalistic views. The stick-right label option keeps labels visible as the chart updates, preventing overlap.
Auto-Deletion at Trading Day End: Levels can be automatically cleared at the indicator's calculated market close (17:00 NY time), a unique feature that prevents accumulation of outdated data, keeping the chart fresh for the next day. This is particularly useful for day traders who reset their setups daily.
No External Dependencies: The indicator operates solely on chart price data using built-in Pine Script functions, ensuring reliability and compatibility without needing additional libraries or internet access.
How It Works
Previous Day Data Capture: The script identifies the previous trading day using the user-defined timezone and calculates high, low, EQ, and OTE levels based on that day's range.
OTE Calculation: Levels are computed as percentages of the range, with auto-detection switching direction if a new high/low was made relative to the day before.
Drawing and Trimming: Lines are plotted with user-set padding for extension, and trimming cuts the left side to focus on current action.
Update Mechanism: Levels update in real-time as the previous day's data is fixed, but the script refreshes on chart reloads or new days.
Deletion Logic: At market close, if auto-delete is enabled, all elements are removed to prepare for the next cycle.
Uniqueness and Innovation
Session OTE Auto Detection: Automatically determines OTE direction based on previous day's high/low expansion, a rare feature that provides bias insights not available in basic previous day high/low indicators, aiding ICT traders in identifying entry zones with market context.
Left-Side Trimming: This innovation allows customizable historical line length, solving chart clutter issues unique to previous day indicators that typically show full history, enhancing usability for live trading.
Directional OTE with Multi-Level Support: Combines auto-bias detection with three OTE percentages (61.8%, 70%, 79%), offering more granular entry options than single-level tools, tailored for ICT's focus on range retracements.
Independent Customization per Element: Separate controls for high, low, EQ, and OTE colors/styles, plus transparency and size, provide unmatched flexibility compared to rigid indicators.
Auto-Deletion for Cleanliness: Unique cleanup at market close prevents level buildup, a practical feature for multi-day analysis not commonly implemented in similar tools.
How to Use It
Setup: Add to chart, configure timezone (e.g., "America/New_York"), and enable the indicator.
Customization: Adjust line colors (e.g., blue for high), styles (dashed for OTE), and enable trimming (8 bars for focus).
Interpretation: Use OTE for entries (e.g., buy at 61.8% in bullish bias); EQ for reversion.
Tips: Test on historical data; combine with ICT concepts like CISD, FVG etc.
This indicator elevates ICT trading with its auto-detection and trimming. Use with risk management; trading carries risk
Daily Distribution Range - Amplitude Probability DashboardSummary
This indicator provides a powerful statistical deep-dive into an asset's daily distribution range, amplitude and volatility. It moves beyond simple range indicators by calculating the historical probability of a trading day reaching certain amplitude levels.
The results are presented in a clean, interactive dashboard that highlights the current day's performance in real-time, allowing traders to instantly gauge if the current volatility is normal, unusually high, or unusually low compared to history.
This tool is designed to help traders answer a critical question: "Based on past behavior, what is the likelihood that today's range will be at least X%?"
Key Concepts Explained
1. Daily Amplitude (%)
The indicator first calculates the amplitude (or range) of every historical daily candle and expresses it as a percentage of that day's opening price.
Formula: (Daily High - Daily Low) / Daily Open * 100
This normalization allows for a consistent volatility comparison across different price levels and time periods.
2. Cumulative Probability Distribution
Instead of showing the probability of a day's final range falling into a small, exclusive bin (e.g., "exactly between 1.0% and 1.5%"), this indicator uses a cumulative model. It answers the question, "What is the probability that the daily range will be at least a certain value?"
For example, if the row for "≥ 2%" shows a probability of 12.22%, it means that historically, 12.22% of all trading days have had a total range of 2% or more. This is incredibly useful for risk management and setting realistic expectations.
Core Features
Statistical Dashboard: Presents all data in a clear, easy-to-read table on your chart.
Cumulative Probability Model: Instantly see the historical probability of the daily range reaching or exceeding key percentage levels.
Real-Time Highlight & Arrow (→): The dashboard isn't just historical. It actively tracks the current, unfinished day's amplitude and highlights the corresponding row with a color and an arrow (→). This provides immediate context for the current session's price action.
Timeframe Independent: You can use this indicator on any chart timeframe (e.g., 5-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour), and it will always fetch and calculate using the correct daily data.
Clean & Professional UI: Features a monospace font for perfect alignment and a simple, readable design.
Fully Customizable: Easily adjust the dashboard's position, text size, and the amount of historical data used for the analysis.
How to Use & Interpret the Data
This indicator is not a trading signal but a powerful tool for statistical context and decision-making.
Risk Management: If you see that an asset has only a 5% historical probability of moving more than 3% in a day, you can set stop-losses more intelligently and avoid being overly aggressive with your targets on a typical day.
Setting Profit Targets: Gauge realistic intra-day profit targets. If a stock is already up 2.5% and has historically only moved more than 3% on rare occasions, you might consider taking profits.
Options Trading: Volatility is paramount for options. This tool helps you visualize the expected range of movement, which can inform decisions on strike selection for strategies like iron condors or straddles.
Identifying Volatility Regimes: Quickly see if the current day is a "normal" low-volatility day or an "abnormal" high-volatility day that could signal a major market event or trend initiation.
Dashboard Breakdown
→ (Arrow): Points to the bin corresponding to the current, live day's amplitude.
Amplitude Level: The minimum amplitude threshold. The format "≥ 1.5%" means "greater than or equal to 1.5%".
Days Reaching Level: The raw number of historical days that had an amplitude equal to or greater than the level in the first column.
Prob. of Reaching Level (%): The percentage of total days that reached that amplitude level (Days Reaching Level / Total Days Analyzed).
Settings
Position: Choose where the dashboard appears on your chart.
Text Size: Adjust the font size for better readability on your screen resolution.
Max Historical Days to Analyze: Set the lookback period for the statistical analysis. A larger number provides a more robust statistical sample but may take slightly longer to load initially.
Enjoy this tool and use it to add a new layer of statistical depth to your trading analysis.
ICT Structure Levels (ST/IT/LT) - v7 (by Jonas E)ICT Structure Levels (ST/IT/LT) – Neighbor-Wick Pivots
This indicator is designed for traders following ICT-style market structure analysis. It identifies Short-Term (ST), Intermediary (IT), and Long-Term (LT) swing highs and lows, but with a stricter filter that reduces false signals.
Unlike standard pivot indicators, this script requires not only that a bar makes a structural high/low, but also that the neighboring bars’ extremes are formed by wicks rather than flat-bodied candles. This wick condition helps confirm that the level is a true liquidity sweep and not just random price action.
How it works (conceptual):
Detects pivots based on user-defined left/right bars.
Validates that extremes on both sides of the pivot are wick-driven (high > body for highs, low < body for lows).
Marks valid STH/STL, ITH/ITL, and LTH/LTL directly on the chart with optional price labels.
Uses ATR offset for better label readability.
Alerts can be enabled to notify when a new structural level is confirmed.
How to use it:
Map market structure across multiple layers (ST/IT/LT).
Identify true liquidity grabs and avoid false highs/lows.
Integrate with Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) strategies.
Combine with other ICT concepts (Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Liquidity Pools).
What makes it unique:
Most pivot indicators mark every high/low indiscriminately. This script filters pivots using wick validation, which significantly reduces noise and focuses only on the levels most relevant to liquidity-based trading strategies.

True Opens - (SpeculatorBryan)Overview
This indicator provides a complete framework of key institutional levels by plotting the "True Open" price for the Month, Week, Day, and Intraday Sessions. Instead of using standard chart opens, it uses specific, globally significant times (based in the NY timezone) to identify levels that price action traders watch closely for support, resistance, and market direction.
What It Does
True Monthly Open (TMO): The key macro level, marking the start of the month's trading.
True Weekly Open (TWO): Arguably the most important level, defining the weekly bias. Based on the Sunday evening start of the forex trading week.
True Daily Open (TDO): The New York midnight open, marking the true start of the institutional 24-hour cycle.
True Session Opens (TSO): Key intraday opens (e.g., London, NY) for finding entries and exits on lower timeframes.
Key Features
Clean Forward Projection: All lines and labels project into the future, so you always see the levels in your current price action.
Full Styling Control: Customize the color, style (solid, dashed, dotted), and text for every level to match your chart theme.
Intelligent Display: Levels automatically show on appropriate timeframes to keep your chart clutter-free. Use the "Stacked Opens" feature to override this.
Lightweight & Efficient: Optimized to run smoothly without lagging your chart.
How to Use It
Look for price to react at these levels. A bounce can signal a continuation, while a clean break and retest can signal a change in market structure. Use the higher-timeframe opens (TMO, TWO) as major anchors for your overall bias and the lower-timeframe opens (TDO, TSO) for fine-tuning your entries and exits.
Macro Times by OutOfOptionsThis indicator highlights macro times on the chart and provides visual and system alerts before a macro begins.
Unlike other macro indicators, this one supports unlimited macro configurations using the format 'HH:mm-HH:mm : Description' . By default, it includes a mix of ICT and Hydra macro times. Incorrect formatting in settings triggers an error, and clicking the "!" error message identifies the problematic configuration line.
You can customize all visual elements, including whether to display Top, Bottom, or 50% lines, highlight the macro zone, or label the macro.
To reduce chart clutter, you can also limit the number of past macros displayed.
For alerts, you can set the advance warning time in minutes and customize the visual alert style (e.g., a vertical line) if enabled.
The indicator is compatible with timeframes of 5 minutes or less; higher timeframes will generate an error.

FREEDOM - TJR Model\ FREEDOM – TJR Model\ 🚀
\ Automates TJR’s well-known NQ playbook with clean visuals, filters, and alerts—so you can focus on execution.\
\ Core idea\
1. Trade \ NQ\ in the \ New York session\ 🗽
2. Wait for a \ liquidity sweep\ of a \ prior session\ High/Low (Asia or London) ✂️
3. Confirm with \ SMT (NQ vs ES) divergence\ 🔀
4. Act on a \ proprietary entry signal\ 🔒
5. Risk at the swing 🛡️, target \ untapped internal/session liquidity\ 🎯
This indicator draws those session levels for you, tracks sweeps, detects SMT, applies higher-timeframe confluence, and fires alerts that respect your time window and filters.
---
\ What it draws & detects\
\ • Sessions & Liquidity Sweeps\ 🕒
* Plots \ Asia / London / New York\ session bands.
* On session close, it freezes the session’s \ High/Low\ as dotted “previous-session levels” and \ extends them forward\ until price \ crosses\ (choose \ Wicks\ or \ Close\ ).
* When price takes a previous-session \ High\ → \ Buyside sweep\ ; takes a \ Low\ → \ Sellside sweep\ .
* Optional \ Sweep Zones\ expand around the swept level using an \ ATR(21)\ margin; can auto-fade “fake” sweeps.
\ Tip: Keep “Extend previous session High/Low until cross” ON to maintain a clean roadmap into NY open.\
\ • SMT Divergence (NQ vs ES)\ 🔀
* Classic pivot-to-pivot SMT:
* \ Bearish SMT\ = NQ makes a \ higher high\ while ES does \ not\ .
* \ Bullish SMT\ = NQ makes a \ lower low\ while ES does \ not\ .
* Draws \ lines\ from pivot to pivot (no chart spam), with optional inline “SMT” label and optional confidence \ score\ (0–100) based on strength + recency.
* Context aware:
* Only shows \ Bearish SMT\ after a \ buy-side sweep\ (previous-session High taken).
* Only shows \ Bullish SMT\ after a \ sell-side sweep\ (previous-session Low taken).
* Respects your \ NY time window\ if enabled.
\ • Proprietary Entry Signals\ 🔒
* Prints entry lines + arrows only when your rules align (proprietary detection under the hood).
* Respects:
* \ Session-sweep bias\ (optional): Sells only after buy-side sweep; Buys only after sell-side sweep.
* \ Monotonic filter\ : new Sell must be \ higher\ than last Sell; new Buy must be \ lower\ than last Buy (resets each session).
* \ Minimum distance\ to nearest previous-session dotted level (in ticks).
* \ NY time filter\ window.
* \ HTF confluence\ (see below).
---
\ HTF Confluence (optional)\ 📈
* Choose \ MA slope\ (\ EMA/SMA/RMA/WMA\ ) or \ HH/HL structure\ on a higher timeframe (e.g., 60m/240m).
* Entry arrows and alerts can be gated so they only print when HTF bias agrees with the setup.
\ Tip: Start with EMA 50 on 60m for a smooth directional filter; add HH/HL only if you want stricter structure confirmation.\
---
\ Dashboard (bottom-right)\ 🧩
* \ VWAP state\ :
* \ Overbought\ (🔴) if close > VWAP + (mult × stdev)
* \ Oversold\ (🟢) if close < VWAP − (mult × stdev)
* Otherwise \ Neutral\ (⚪️)
* \ Premium / Discount\ vs previous-session 50% midline: Premium = above (red bias), Discount = below (green bias).
* \ SMT row\ : Bullish / Bearish / Neutral with optional score.
---
\ How to use the settings (quick tour)\
\ ENTRY\
* \ Entry Swing Length\ : lower = more signals.
* \ Confirmation\ : \ Candle Close\ or \ Wicks\ for breakout.
* \ Filter entry by session sweeps\ : enforces “sell after buy-side sweep, buy after sell-side sweep.”
* \ Minimum distance (ticks)\ : blocks entries too close to previous-session dotted levels.
* \ Replay mode\ : keeps entries visible in Bar Replay.
* \ NY Time filter\ : default \ 08:00–14:00 NY\ ; arrows/alerts respect the window.
* \ Arrow offset (ticks)\ : how far above/below the candle to plot the arrow.
\ SESSION SWEEPS\
* Toggle \ Buyside/Sellside zones\ , adjust \ ATR(21)\ margin & length.
* \ Hide Fake Sweep Zones\ (default ON).
* \ Extend H/L until cross\ (Wicks/Close).
* Optional \ daily reset\ for unswept dotted lines.
\ SESSIONS\
* Enable/disable \ Asia, London, NY AM, NY PM\ ; set start/end; choose color; extend midline if desired.
* DST toggles for NY/London.
\ HTF Confluence\
* Turn it ON/OFF; pick timeframe & method (MA slope or HH/HL); set MA type/length or swing length.
\ Dashboard\
* Show/hide table; set VWAP stdev length/multiplier.
* SMT settings: comparison symbol (\ default ES1!\ ), pivot length, show score/labels, recency window, etc.
\ Alerts\ (always last) 🔔
* \ Session line cross\ : choose Highs/Lows and crossing mode (\ Same as extension / Wicks / Close\ ).
* \ Entry alerts\ : \ Filtered / Unfiltered / Both\ .
* \ Filtered\ = respects sweep bias, HTF confluence, minimum distance, monotonic rule, and time window.
* \ Unfiltered\ = ignores sweep bias/HTF/monotonic (still respects minimum distance + time window).
* All entry alerts also respect the \ NY time window\ when enabled.
---
\ Suggested workflow\
* Open NQ on a 1–5m chart.
* Let the dotted \ previous-session H/L\ extend into NY; wait for a \ sweep\ .
* Check \ SMT\ : after buy-side sweep → look for \ bearish SMT\ ; after sell-side sweep → look for \ bullish SMT\ .
* Take the \ proprietary entry\ when filters agree.
* Stop at the swing; aim for \ untapped internal/session liquidity\ .
* Let \ alerts\ handle the monitoring.
---
\ Why traders like it\
* It mirrors the model popularized by \ TJR\ while removing the chart admin: sessions, sweeps, SMT, HTF gating, distances, monotonic sequencing, time windows, and ready-to-use alerts—so your execution stays consistent. ✨

Rebalance Statistics|█ OVERVIEW
Rebalance statistics is an indicator that gathers relevant data on how often price "rebalances" after an expansion, allowing traders to garner insights on potential future price movements through historical analysis. Additionally, it displays these key levels on the users chart and allows for users to implement filters in order to further deepen their analysis.
█ CONCEPTS
The concept of rebalancing follows the third candle in a typical 3-candle sequence of how an "FVG" is created. Typically, an "FVG" represents the area created during the second candle of an aggressive expansive movement, where the wick of the first candle high or low doesn't overlap with the third candles' high or low, creating an opportunity where traders may expect price to react from.
Rebalancing focuses on the third candle of this sequence, where the "FVG" may be created. When the low of the third candle (in the bullish case) doesn't reach the high of the first candle, the FVG isn't rebalanced, and if it does it's considered rebalanced. This may be useful to determine when movements are likely to retrace, as found by this indicator, most of the time the third candle is likely to rebalance the expansive move.
The indicator will display these areas, including the current ratio that candle 3 rebalanced of the area, as well as the overall stats associated with rebalancing, such as the average ratio of "non-rebalanced" areas, and how often price tends to rebalance these areas.
█ FEATURES
Rebalance areas: After a candle 2 expansion, the indicator will display the current rebalance ratio and the area that has been rebalanced as well as the overall rebalance area.
Rebalance statistics: The indicator will display through a table the overall probability of a rebalance including the average ratio that the candle 3 will rebalance of the overall area.
Time filtering: Filter rebalances to occur only during a specific period of time (suggested for lower timeframes).
Candle sequence filtering: Filter rebalances by only using the cases where the first candle of the sequence is in line with the second one to determine how it affects the statistic.
█ How to use
To use the indicator, simply apply it to your chart and modify any of your desired inputs.
The indicator is setup to display statistics for rebalances based on your current timeframe, but you may also adjust the indicator to only calculate the statistic based on a certain time window in the day done in NY time (UTC-4), or by filtering the candle sequence (candle 1 of the 3 candle sequence must be in the same direction as the ones following it.
Liquidity Sweep Scanner [TradingFinder]🔵 Introduction
Recognizing how liquidity develops and how price reacts at key structural levels is critical for spotting precise, low-risk trade entries. The Liquidity Sweep Scanner is an advanced tool built to track market activity in real time, pinpoint liquidity sweeps, define reaction zones, and identify confirmation candles across multiple instruments and timeframes.
Key Advantages :
Detects high-probability reversal points with precision.
Combines liquidity analysis, market structure, and candle confirmation.
Works seamlessly across multiple symbols and timeframes.
This screener can scan a broad watchlist or analyze every timeframe of a single asset to find optimal reversal zones. It starts by identifying a clear swing point either a swing high or swing low and marking a reaction zone between that point and the candle’s highest or lowest open/close value.
If price revisits the zone, performs a liquidity grab, and forms an indecision candle such as a doji or narrow-bodied bar that closes inside the zone, this may indicate rejection of the level and a failed breakout attempt. Based on the surrounding market context, the screener then flags a potential bullish or bearish reversal and generates the appropriate Long or Short signal.
By focusing on precise entry timing, institutional order flow alignment, and filtering out false breakouts, the Liquidity Sweep Scanner zeroes in on the market areas where liquidity engineering, reversal potential, and inefficiency overlap. This makes it an indispensable tool for price action traders who rely on clear, high-quality setups without the distraction of market noise.
🔵 How to Use
The Liquidity Sweep Scanner continuously evaluates market structure, issuing alerts when a potential reversal setup emerges. It merges liquidity behavior, swing point analysis, and candle confirmation within predefined reaction zones.
To illustrate, imagine price forms a swing high or low, then later returns to that level. If it sweeps the prior extreme and produces a qualifying candle inside the reaction zone, the tool signals a possible reversal.
🟣 Long Setup
For a bullish scenario, the screener first spots a valid swing low a level often packed with sell-side liquidity. From there, it defines a reaction zone stretching from the swing low to the candle’s lowest open/close point.
If price retests this area with a wick dipping below the swing low but then closes back inside the zone, it signals absorption of selling pressure and rejection of further downside. The screener then awaits a confirmation candle commonly a doji or small-bodied bar closing inside the zone. Once these conditions align, a Long signal is logged and, if alerts are active, the trader receives a notification.
🟣 Short Setup
For bearish opportunities, the process begins by locating a valid swing high typically an area dense with buy-side liquidity. The reaction zone is drawn from the swing high to the candle’s highest open/close value.
When price retests this zone, sweeps above the swing high, and fails to close higher, it suggests a bull trap and waning upward momentum. The screener then requires a confirmation candle often a doji or rejection bar that closes back within the zone before confirming a Short signal.
These bearish setups help traders pinpoint likely institutional sell zones, offering a clear view of where price may reverse following a liquidity event.

🔵 Conclusion
The Liquidity Sweep Scanner equips traders with a precise, structured method for spotting high-probability reversals by merging liquidity sweeps, reaction zone mapping, and candle confirmation.
It not only filters out market noise but also highlights price areas where inefficiency and reversal potential align. Beyond identifying clean entry points, the tool includes a market direction detection feature allowing traders to quickly determine the prevailing trend and align their trades accordingly.
With adjustable settings such as the Pivot Period for fine-tuning detection direction, it adapts to various trading styles and timeframes, making it a powerful and versatile addition to any trader’s strategy.
