FVG - NibzDescription: Fair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator - Nibz
This Pine Script identifies and visualizes Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on your TradingView chart. FVGs are price inefficiencies left behind when the market moves too quickly, skipping price levels that might not be tested. These gaps often act as magnets, attracting price for potential reversals or continuations.
The script works by detecting upward (bullish) and downward (bearish) price imbalances based on specific candlestick criteria and then marks these zones on your chart using customizable shaded boxes. This tool is essential for traders looking to identify key areas of market inefficiency that could signify support/resistance levels, potential reversal zones, or areas to monitor for market rebalancing.
How It Works
1. Bullish FVG Detection
The script identifies an upward imbalance when:
The low of the candlestick two bars back is less than or equal to the open of the previous bar.
The high of the current candlestick is greater than or equal to the close of the previous bar.
When this condition is met and the size of the imbalance is greater than zero, a green box is drawn from the low of the second candlestick back to the high of the current candlestick.
2. Bearish FVG Detection
The script identifies a downward imbalance when:
The high of the candlestick two bars back is greater than or equal to the open of the previous bar.
The low of the current candlestick is less than or equal to the close of the previous bar.
When this condition is met and the size of the imbalance is greater than zero, a red box is drawn from the low of the current candlestick to the high of the second candlestick back.
Customization Options
This script is highly customizable, allowing you to tailor the appearance of the FVG boxes to suit your trading style and chart aesthetics:
Bullish FVG:
Fill color and transparency.
Border color and transparency.
Bearish FVG:
Fill color and transparency.
Border color and transparency.
The settings are user-friendly, with intuitive sliders for transparency and color pickers for customization.
How to Use the Indicator
Adding the Script:
Add the indicator to your chart, and it will automatically mark bullish (green) and bearish (red) FVGs.
Interpreting FVGs:
Bullish FVGs (green zones): These often act as support or areas of potential price rebalancing on retracement.
Bearish FVGs (red zones): These often act as resistance or areas of interest for short entries.
Trade Ideas:
Use FVG zones to confirm other trade signals or strategies.
Watch for price interaction with these zones to time entries and exits.

Order blocksHi all!
This indicator will show you found order blocks that can be used as supply or demand. It's my take on trying to create good order blocks and I hope it makes sense.
First off I suggest to verify the current trend before using an order block. This can be done in a variety of ways, one way could be to use my other script "Market structure" () which I use and suggest.
You can configure the indicator to behave differently depending on settings. These are the settings available:
• The order blocks created can be found in any higher timeframe defined in "Timeframe"
• The number of active order blocks are defined in "Count". If an order block is found the earliest order block will be replaced
• You can choose the type of order blocks that are found ("Bullish", "Bearish " or "Both") in "Type"
• The old order blocks can be kept if "Keep history" is checked
• Order blocks that are found are not removed when mitigated (entered) but when a new one appears. They can be removed when they are broken by price if "Remove broken zones" are checked
There is also a setting section called "Requirements" that defines what is required for an order block to be created. These are the settings:
• "Take out"
Check this if you want the base of the order block (the candle where the zone is drawn from (high and low)) to have to take out the previous candle (be higher or lower depending if the order block is bullish or bearish).
• "Consecutive rising/falling"
Each following candle in the reaction (the 3 reaction candles) needs to reach higher or lower (depending on bullish or bearish). Check this if you want that to be true.
• "Reaction"
Some sort of reaction is needed from the 3 candles creating the order block. This reaction is based on the value of the Average True Length (ATR) of length 14. You can here define a factor of the value from the ATR that these 3 candles needs to move in price. A higher need for a reaction (higher factor of the ATR) will create lesser zones. You can also choose to show this limit with the checkbox.
• "Fair Value Gap"
The reaction needs to create a gap (imbalance) in price. This gap is known as a "Fair Value Gap" and is created when the last candle's wick does not meet with the base candle's wick. Check this if you want this to be needed.
After these settings you can also choose the colors of the created zones. The ones that are active (called "Zones"), the ones that are replaced ("Replaced zones") and the ones that are broken ("Broken zones") (if this is enabled in "Remove broken zones").
I'm using my library "Touched" to be able to show you labels when the order blocks have a retest, false breakout and breakout. These labels can be hidden if you disable the labels under the style tab in the indicator settings.
The concept of order blocks is widely used among traders and can provide you with good supply or demand zones. I hope that this indicator makes sense.
My todo-list has a few things, but top of that list is adding alerts for zone interactions or creations. Please feel free to say what you want to be coded!
The order blocks in the publication chart are found in weekly timeframe but are shown on the daily timeframe. Other than that the image shows you zones from the default settings (which are based on the daily timeframe).
Best of luck trading!
FVG (ICT) with Swing LevelsThis indicator, called "Fair Value Gaps (ICT) with Swing Levels", overlays on the main chart and does the following:
Initial Setup:
It defines user-adjustable parameters:
lookback: Lookback period to keep FVGs visible.
swingPeriod: Period for calculating swing highs and lows.
bullColor and bearColor: Colors for bullish and bearish FVGs.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) Detection:
Uses a function to identify FVGs by comparing candle high and low prices.
A bullish FVG forms when the low of two candles ago is higher than the high of the current candle.
A bearish FVG forms when the high of two candles ago is lower than the low of the current candle.
Swing Levels Calculation:
Calculates swing highs and lows over the specified period.
These swing levels define the current market range.
Current Range Verification:
Implements a function to check if an FVG is within the range defined by swing levels.
This ensures only the most relevant FVGs for the current market situation are displayed.
FVG Drawing:
When it detects an FVG (bullish or bearish) within the current range, it draws a box on the chart.
Boxes extend from the bar where the FVG formed to the current bar.
Bullish FVGs are drawn in green and bearish in red (colors are customizable).
Old FVGs Management:
On each new bar, the indicator checks all existing FVG boxes.
It removes boxes that are outside the specified lookback period.
It also removes boxes that are no longer within the current range of swing levels.
Swing Levels Visualization:
Draws lines on the chart to show swing highs (in blue) and swing lows (in purple).
These lines help visualize the current market range.
Continuous Update:
The indicator updates on each new candle, constantly refreshing FVGs and swing levels.
In summary, this indicator identifies and visualizes Fair Value Gaps according to the ICT methodology, filtering them based on higher timeframe swing levels. This helps traders focus on the most significant FVGs within the current market context, reducing visual noise and potentially improving trading decision-making.
ICT KillZones Hunt [TradingFinder] 4 Sessions + OB + FVG + Alert🔵 Introduction
🟣 ICT
The "ICT" style is a subset of "Price Action" technical analysis. The primary goal of the ICT trading strategy is to merge "Price Action" with the "Smart Money" concept to pinpoint optimal trade entry points.
However, this approach's strength extends beyond merely finding entry points. It also helps traders gain a deeper understanding of price behavior and adapt their trading strategies to the market structure.
The most important concepts of "ICT" :
Order Block
Fair Value Gap(FVG)
Liquidity
🟣 Session
Financial markets are divided into several time periods, each featuring distinct characteristics and levels of activity. These periods, known as sessions, are active at different times during the day.
The primary active sessions in financial markets include :
Asian Session
European Session
New York Session
Based on the UTC time zone, the schedule for these key sessions is :
Asian Session: 23:00 to 06:00
European Session: 07:00 to 16:30
New York Session: 13:00 to 22:00
Note
To avoid session overlap and minimize interference during kill zones, the session times have been modified as follows :
Asian Session: 23:00 to 06:00
European Session: 07:00 to 14:25
New York Session: 14:30 to 22:55
🟣 KillZone
Kill zones are periods within a session where trader activity spikes. During these times, trading volume surges, and price movements become more pronounced.
The major kill zones, according to the UTC time zone, are as follows :
Asian Kill Zone: 23:00 to 03:55
European Kill Zone: 07:00 to 09:55
New York Morning Kill Zone: 14:30 to 16:55
New York Evening Kill Zone: 19:30 to 20:55
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Order Block
Order blocks are a distinct category of "Supply and Demand" zones, formed when a series of orders are grouped together. These blocks are often created by banks or other significant market participants.
Banks typically execute large orders in blocks during their trading sessions. If they were to enter the market with small quantities, substantial price movements would occur before the orders were fully executed, reducing potential profit.
To mitigate this, they divide their orders into smaller, more manageable positions. Traders should seek "buy" opportunities in "demand order blocks" and "sell" opportunities in "supply order blocks."
🟣 Fair Value Gap (FVG)
To pinpoint the "Fair Value Gap" on the chart, meticulous candle-by-candle analysis is essential. Pay close attention to candles with significant bodies, examining each candle alongside the one preceding it.
The candles flanking this central candle should exhibit elongated shadows, with bodies that do not intersect the body of the central candle. The span between the shadows of the first and third candles is referred to as the FVG range.
Note :
The origin of all Order Blocks and FVGs starts from inside a kill zone and extends up to the end of the same session.
🟣 Kill Zone Hunt
Following this strategy, after the conclusion of the kill zone and the stabilization of its high and low lines, if the price touches either of these lines within the same session and encounters a robust rejection, it presents an opportunity to enter a trade.

ICT Concept [TradingFinder] Order Block | FVG | Liquidity Sweeps🔵 Introduction
The "ICT" style is one of the subsets of "Price Action" technical analysis. ICT is a method created by "Michael Huddleston", a professional forex trader and experienced mentor. The acronym ICT stands for "Inner Circle Trader".
The main objective of the ICT trading strategy is to combine "Price Action" and the concept of "Smart Money" to identify optimal entry points into trades. However, finding suitable entry points is not the only strength of this approach. With the ICT style, traders can better understand price behavior and adapt their trading approach to market structure accordingly.
Numerous concepts are discussed in this style, but the key practical concepts for trading in financial markets include "Order Block," "Liquidity," and "FVG".
🔵 How to Use
🟣Order Block
Order blocks are a specific type of "Supply and Demand" zones formed when a series of orders are placed in a block. These orders could be created by banks or other major players. Banks typically execute large orders in blocks during their trading sessions. If they were to enter the market directly with a small quantity, significant price movements would occur before the orders are fully executed, resulting in less profit. To avoid this, they divide their orders into smaller, manageable positions. Traders should look for "buy" opportunities in "demand order blocks" areas and "sell" opportunities in "supply order blocks".
🟣Liquidity
These levels are where traders aim to exit their trades. "Market Makers" or smart money usually collects or distributes their trading positions near levels where many retail traders have placed their "Stop Loss" orders. When the liquidity resulting from these losses is collected, the price often reverses direction.
A "Stop Hunt" is a move designed to neutralize liquidity generated by triggered stop losses. Banks often use significant news events to trigger stop hunts and acquire the liquidity released in the market. If, for example, they intend to execute heavy buy orders, they encourage others to sell through stop hunts.
As a result, if there is liquidity in the market before reaching the order block region, the credibility of that order block is higher. Conversely, if liquidity is near the order block, meaning the price reaches the order block before reaching the liquidity area, the credibility of that order block is lower.
🟣FVG (Fair Value Gap)
To identify the "Fair Value Gap" on the chart, one must analyze candle by candle. Focus on candles with large bodies, examining one candle and the one before it. The candles before and after this central candle should have long shadows, and their bodies should not overlap with the body of the central candle. The distance between the shadows of the first and third candles is called the FVG range.
These zone function in two ways :
•Supply and Demand zone: In this case, the price reacts to these zone, and its trend reverses.
•Liquidity zone: In this scenario, the price "fills" the zone and then reaches the order block.
Important Note: In most cases, FVG zone with very small width act as supply and demand zone, while zone with a significant width act as liquidity zone, absorbing the price.
🔵 Setting
🟣Order Block
Refine Order Block : When the option for refining order blocks is Off, the supply and demand zones encompass the entire length of the order block (from Low to High) in their standard state and remain unaltered. On the option for refining order blocks triggers the improvement of supply and demand zones using the error correction algorithm.
Refine Type : The enhancement of order blocks via the error correction algorithm can be executed through two methods: Defensive and Aggressive. In the Aggressive approach, the widest possible range is taken into account for order blocks.
Show High Levels : If major high levels are to be displayed, set the option for showing high level to Yes.
Show Low Levels : If major low levels are to be displayed, set the option for showing low level to Yes.
Show Last Support : If showing the last support is desired, set the option for showing last support to Yes.
Show Last Resistance : If showing the last resistance is desired, set the option for showing last resistance to Yes.
🟣 FVG
FVG Filter : When FVG filtering is activated, the number of FVG areas undergoes filtration based on the specified algorithm.
FVG Filter Types :
1. Very Aggressive : Apart from the initial condition, an additional condition is introduced. For an upward FVG, the maximum price of the last candle should exceed the maximum price of the middle candle. Similarly, for a downward FVG, the minimum price of the last candle should be lower than the minimum price of the middle candle. This mode eliminates a minimal number of FVGs.
2. Aggressive : In addition to the conditions of the Very Aggressive mode, this mode considers the size of the middle candle; it should not be small. Consequently, a larger number of FVGs are eliminated in this mode.
3. Defensive : Alongside the conditions of the Very Aggressive mode, this mode takes into account the size of the middle candle, which should be relatively large with the majority of it comprising the body. Furthermore, to identify upward FVGs, the second and third candles must be positive, whereas for downward FVGs, the second and third candles must be negative. This mode filters out a considerable number of FVGs, retaining only those of suitable quality.
4. Very Defensive : In addition to the conditions of the Defensive mode, the first and third candles should not be very small-bodied doji candles. This mode filters out the majority of FVGs, leaving only the highest quality ones. Show Demand FVG: Enables the display of demand-related boxes, which can be toggled between off and on. Show Supply FVG: Enables the display of supply-related boxes along the path, which can also be toggled between off and on.
🟣 Liquidity
Statics Liquidity Line Sensitivity : A value ranging from 0 to 0.4. Increasing this value reduces the sensitivity of the "Statics Liquidity Line Detection" function and increases the number of identified lines. The default value is 0.3.
Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity : A value ranging from 0.4 to 1.95. Increasing this value enhances the sensitivity of the "Dynamics Liquidity Line Detection" function and decreases the number of identified lines. The default value is 1.
Statics Period Pivot : Default value is set to 8. By adjusting this value, you can specify the period for static liquidity line pivots.
Dynamics Period Pivot : Default value is set to 3. By adjusting this value, you can specify the period for dynamic liquidity line pivots.
You can activate or deactivate liquidity lines as necessary using the buttons labeled "Show Statics High Liquidity Line," "Show Statics Low Liquidity Line," "Show Dynamics High Liquidity Line," and "Show Dynamics Low Liquidity Line".

Multi-TF 👀### Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF-Analysis)
**Overview**
The Multi-Timeframe Analysis indicator is a powerful visualization tool designed for traders who incorporate multi-timeframe (MTF) strategies into their decision-making process. It overlays compact, customizable candle representations from up to four higher timeframes directly on your chart, positioned to the right of the last bar for quick reference. This allows you to monitor price action, momentum via EMAs, and key levels like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across multiple resolutions without switching charts. Built with efficiency in mind, it supports automatic timeframe detection, real-time updates, and a clean, non-intrusive design that enhances your trading workflow.
Ideal for day traders, swing traders, and scalpers, this indicator helps identify alignments between timeframes, spot potential reversals or continuations, and validate entries/exits based on higher-timeframe context. It leverages Pine Script v6 for smooth performance, with optimizations to handle up to 5000 bars back and extensive drawing limits.
**Key Features**
- **Multi-Timeframe Candle Display**: Renders recent candles (configurable from 5 to 100 per timeframe) from selected higher timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H) as compact bars with customizable width, spacing, and padding. Bullish and bearish candles are color-coded for instant recognition.
- **Automatic Timeframe Adaptation**: When enabled, the indicator intelligently selects complementary timeframes based on your chart's resolution (e.g., on a 1m chart, it might show 5m, 15m, and 1H). Manual overrides are available for full control.
- **EMA Overlays**: Plots EMA9, EMA21, and EMA50 on each MTF section using a user-defined source (e.g., OHLC/4, close). EMAs can be dashed for clarity and enabled/disabled per timeframe, helping to gauge momentum and trend strength.
- **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)**: Detects bullish (+FVG) and bearish (-FVG) gaps with a configurable lookback length (5-50 bars). Gaps are visualized as dotted boxes extending from the candle, highlighting potential support/resistance zones or imbalances.
- **Time Labels and Debugging**: Displays timestamp labels under every fourth candle for chronological context. A debug mode expands spacing and adds detailed labels (e.g., OHLC, volume, EMA values) for testing and verification.
- **Customization Options**: Extensive inputs for colors (bodies, wicks, EMAs, FVGs), label sizes/styles, and layout ensure seamless integration with your chart theme. Supports futures symbols with a time offset adjustment.
- **Performance Optimizations**: Uses arrays for efficient data management, clears drawings on realtime updates or timeframe changes, and limits buffer sizes to prevent overload.
**How to Use**
1. Add the indicator to your chart via TradingView's "Indicators" menu.
2. Configure timeframes: Enable/disable up to four TFs and set the number of candles to display. Use "Auto Timeframe" for smart defaults.
3. Adjust EMAs: Select the source type and toggle per TF to focus on relevant momentum signals (e.g., EMA9 crossovers for short-term trades).
4. Enable FVGs: Activate per TF and tweak the length to suit your market (shorter for volatile assets, longer for trends).
5. Fine-tune appearance: Modify padding, candle width, and colors to avoid clutter. Use debug mode during setup.
6. Interpret: Align your chart's price action with MTF candles—look for confluence in trends, FVGs filling as support/resistance, or EMA alignments for high-probability setups.
**Input Settings**
- **General**: Hour offset for time adjustments (useful for futures).
- **Timeframes**: Enable TFs 1-4, select resolutions (e.g., "5m"), and set candle counts. Auto mode simplifies this.
- **FVG/iFVG**: Toggle per TF, customize colors and detection length.
- **EMA**: Enable per TF, choose source, colors, and dashed style.
- **Candle Appearance**: Bull/bear colors for bodies/wicks, width/spacing/padding, label size/color.
- **Debug**: Expands view for detailed inspection.
**Notes**
- This indicator is non-repainting and updates in realtime, but performance may vary on lower timeframes with many candles—reduce counts if needed.
- FVGs are calculated locally on recent bars for efficiency; historical gaps beyond the buffer aren't shown.
- Compatible with all symbols, but best on volatile markets like forex, crypto, or indices.
- Feedback welcome—updates may include more MA types or advanced FVG filters.

FVG Breakout Lite by tradingbauhausExplanation of "FVG Breakout Lite by tradingbauhaus"
This script is a trading strategy built for TradingView that helps you spot and trade "Fair Value Gaps" (FVGs)—price areas where the market moved quickly, leaving a gap that might act as support or resistance later. It’s designed to catch breakout opportunities when the price moves strongly in one direction, with extra filters to make trades more reliable. Here’s how it works and how you can use it:
What It Does
1. Finds Fair Value Gaps (FVGs):
A "Bullish FVG" happens when the price jumps up quickly, leaving a gap below where it didn’t trade much (e.g., today’s low is higher than the high from two bars ago).
A "Bearish FVG" is the opposite: the price drops fast, leaving a gap above (e.g., today’s high is lower than the low from two bars ago).
The script draws colored boxes on your chart to show these gaps: green for bullish, red for bearish.
2. Spots Breakouts:
It looks for "strong" FVGs by comparing them to a trend (based on the highest highs and lowest lows over a set period).
If a bullish gap forms above the recent highs, or a bearish gap below the recent lows, it’s marked as a breakout opportunity.
3. Adds a Volume Check:
Trades only happen if the market’s volume is higher than usual (e.g., 1.2x the average volume over the last 20 bars). This helps ensure the breakout has real momentum behind it.
4. Trades Automatically:
Long Trades (Buy): If a bullish breakout FVG forms and volume is high, it buys at the current price.
Short Trades (Sell): If a bearish breakout FVG forms with high volume, it sells short.
Each trade comes with a stop loss (to limit losses) and a take profit (to lock in gains), both adjustable by you.
5. Shows Mitigation Lines (Optional):
If you turn on "Display Mitigation Zones," it draws lines at the edge of each breakout FVG. These lines show where the price might return to "fill" the gap later, helping you see key levels.
6. Includes Webull Costs:
The script factors in real trading fees from Webull, like tiny SEC and FINRA fees for selling, and a daily margin cost if you’re borrowing money to trade. These don’t show up on the chart but affect the strategy’s performance in backtesting.
How to Use It
1. Add to Your Chart:
Copy the script into TradingView’s Pine Editor, click "Add to Chart," and it’ll start drawing FVGs and running the strategy.
2. Customize Settings:
Trend Period (Default: 25): How many bars it looks back to define the trend. Longer periods mean fewer but stronger signals.
Volume Lookback (Default: 20) & Volume Threshold (Default: 1.2): Adjust how it measures "high volume." Increase the threshold for stricter trades.
Stop Loss % (Default: 1.5%) & Take Profit % (Default: 3%): Set how much you’re willing to lose or aim to gain per trade.
Margin Rate % (Default: 8.74%): Webull’s rate for borrowing money—lower it if your account qualifies for a better rate.
Display Mitigation Zones (Default: On): Toggle this to see or hide the gap lines.
Colors: Change the green (bullish) and red (bearish) shades to suit your chart.
3. Backtest It:
Go to the "Strategy Tester" tab in TradingView to see how it performs on past data. It’ll show trades, profits, losses, and Webull fees included.
4. Watch It Work:
Green boxes mean bullish FVGs; red boxes mean bearish FVGs. If volume spikes and the price breaks out, you’ll see trades happen automatically.
What to Expect
Visuals: You’ll see colored boxes for FVGs and optional lines showing where they start. These help you spot key price zones even if you’re not trading.
Trades: It’s selective—only trades when FVGs align with a breakout and volume confirms it. Expect fewer trades but with higher potential.
Risk: The stop loss keeps losses in check, while the take profit aims for a 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio by default (3% gain vs. 1.5% loss).
Costs: Webull’s fees are small but baked into the results, so you’re seeing a realistic picture of profits.
Tips for Users
Test it on a small timeframe (like 5-minute charts) for day trading or a larger one (like daily) for swing trading.
Play with the volume threshold—if you get too few trades, lower it (e.g., 1.1); if too many, raise it (e.g., 1.5).
Watch how price reacts to the mitigation lines—they’re often support or resistance zones traders target.
This strategy is lightweight, focused, and built for traders who like breakouts with a bit of confirmation. It’s not foolproof (no strategy is!), but it gives you a clear way to trade FVGs with some smart filters.
🟡 GOLD 4H HUD v8.9 — Loose ICT OB + Strong/Weak + FVG/HVN/LVNGOLD 4H HUD v8.9 is a clean, structured Smart Money Concepts (SMC)–based analysis tool designed exclusively for XAUUSD on the 4-hour timeframe.
It focuses on the three most important elements for institutional orderflow analysis:
✔ Loose ICT Order Blocks (Demand/Supply)

Clear color coding (strong vs. weak)
Price range labels inside each box
Automatic right-shift for visual clarity
4 — Volume Profile Engine (POC / HVN / LVN / VAH / VAL)
Based on a rolling window (default 120 bars), the script builds a lightweight volume distribution.
It displays:
POC (Point of Control)
HVN (High Volume Node)
LVN (Low Volume Node)
Value Area High / Low
HVN/LVN zones are shown as right-shifted colored boxes with price labels.
These zones help identify:
Institutional accumulation
Low-liquidity rejection points
Areas where price tends to react strongly
5 — Support / Resistance Mapping
The script automatically generates:
OB-based support/resistance
Swing-high/swing-low levels
HVN/LVN structural levels
These are displayed in the HUD for fast reference.
6 — Professional HUD Panel
A compact, easy-to-read HUD summarizes:
Trend direction
Latest HH/HL
OB ranges (Strong/Weak)
HVN/LVN price zones
POC
Multi-layer support & resistance
This turns the script into a fully functional analysis dashboard.
📌 What This Indicator Is NOT
To avoid misunderstanding:
It does not take entries or generate buy/sell signals
It does not auto-detect CHOCH, MSS, SMT, or sweeps
It is not a trading bot
This tool is designed as an institutional-style map and analysis HUD, not a strategy.
📌 Best Use Case
This indicator is ideal for traders who want to:
Read institutional structure on XAUUSD
Identify clean Demand/Supply zones
Visualize FVG/OB/HVN interactions
Track high-value liquidity levels
Build directional bias on 4H before dropping to execution timeframes
⚠ Important Note
This tool is designed exclusively for the 4H timeframe.
Using it on lower timeframes will display a warning.
Obsidian Flux Matrix# Obsidian Flux Matrix | JackOfAllTrades
Made with my Senior Level AI Pine Script v6 coding bot for the community!
Narrative Overview
Obsidian Flux Matrix (OFM) is an open-source Pine Script v6 study that fuses social sentiment, higher timeframe trend bias, fair-value-gap detection, liquidity raids, VWAP gravitation, session profiling, and a diagnostic HUD. The layout keeps the obsidian palette so critical overlays stay readable without overwhelming a price chart.
Purpose & Scope
OFM focuses on actionable structure rather than marketing claims. It documents every driver that powers its confluence engine so reviewers understand what triggers each visual.
Core Analytical Pillars
1. Social Pulse Engine
Sentiment Webhook Feed: Accepts normalized scores (-1 to +1). Signals only arm when the EMA-smoothed value exceeds the `sentimentMin` input (0.35 by default).
Volume Confirmation: Requires local volume > 30-bar average × `volSpikeMult` (default 2.0) before sentiment flags.
EMA Cross Validation: Fast EMA 8 crossing above/below slow EMA 21 keeps momentum aligned with flow.
Momentum Alignment: Multi-timeframe momentum composite must agree (positive for longs, negative for shorts).
2. Peer Momentum Heatmap
Multi-Timeframe Blend: RSI + Stoch RSI fetched via request.security() on 1H/4H/1D by default.
Composite Scoring: Each timeframe votes +1/-1/0; totals are clamped between -3 and +3.
Intraday Readability: Configurable band thickness (1-5) so scalpers see context without losing space.
Dynamic Opacity: Stronger agreement boosts column opacity for quick bias checks.
3. Trend & Displacement Framework
Dual EMA Ribbon: Cyan/magenta ribbon highlights immediate posture.
HTF Bias: A higher-timeframe EMA (default 55 on 4H) sets macro direction.
Displacement Score: Body-to-ATR ratio (>1.4 default) detects impulses that seed FVGs or VWAP raids.
ATR Normalization: All thresholds float with volatility so the study adapts to assets and regimes.
4. Intelligent Fair Value Gap (FVG) System
Gap Detection: Three-candle logic (bullish: low > high ; bearish: high < low ) with ATR-sized minimums (0.15 × ATR default).
Overlap Prevention: Price-range checks stop redundant boxes.
Spacing Control: `fvgMinSpacing` (default 5) avoids stacking from the same impulse.
Storage Caps: Max three FVGs per side unless the user widens the limit.
Session Awareness: Kill zone filters keep taps focused on London/NY if desired.
Auto Cleanup: Boxes delete when price closes beyond their invalidation level.
5. VWAP Magnet + Liquidity Raid Engine
Session or Rolling VWAP: Toggle resets to match intraday or rolling preferences.
Equal High/Low Scanner: Looks back 20 bars by default for liquidity pools.
Displacement Filter: ATR multiplier ensures raids represent genuine liquidity sweeps.
Mean Reversion Focus: Signals fire when price displaces back toward VWAP following a raid.
6. Session Range Breakout System
Initial Balance Tracking: First N bars (15 default) define the session box.
Breakout Logic: Requires simultaneous liquidity spikes, nearby FVG activity, and supportive momentum.
Z-Score Volume Filter: >1.5σ by default to filter noisy moves.
7. Lifestyle Liquidity Scanner
Volume Z-Scores: 50-bar baseline highlights statistically significant spikes.
Smart Money Footprints: Bottom-of-chart squares color-code buy vs sell participation.
Panel Memory: HUD logs the last five raid timestamps, direction, and normalized size.
8. Risk Matrix & Diagnostic HUD
HUD Structure: Table in the top-right summarizes HTF bias, sentiment, momentum, range state, liquidity memory, and current risk references.
Signal Tags: Aggregates SPS, FVG, VWAP, Range, and Liquidity states into a compact string.
Risk Metrics: Swing-based stops (5-bar lookback) + ATR targets (1.5× default) keep risk transparent.
Signal Families & Alerts
Social Pulse (SPS): Volume-confirmed sentiment alignment; triangle markers with “SPS”.
Kill-Zone FVG: Session + HTF alignment + FVG tap; arrow markers plus SL/TP labels.
Local FVG: Captures local reversals when HTF bias has not flipped yet.
VWAP Raid: Equal-high/low raids that snap toward VWAP; “VWAP” label markers.
Range Breakout: Initial balance violations with liquidity and imbalance confirmation; circle markers.
Liquidity Spike: Z-score spikes ≥ threshold; square markers along the baseline.
Visual Design & Customization
Theme Palette: Primary background RGB (12,6,24). Accent shading RGB (26,10,48). Long accents RGB (88,174,255). Short accents RGB (219,109,255).
Stylized Candles: Optional overlay using theme colors.
Signal Toggles: Independently enable markers, heatmap, and diagnostics.
Label Spacing: Auto-spacing enforces ≥4-bar gaps to prevent text overlap.
Customization & Workflow Notes
Adjust ATR/FVG thresholds when volatility shifts.
Re-anchor sentiment to your webhook cadence; EMA smoothing (default 5) dampens noise.
Reposition the HUD by editing the `table.new` coordinates.
Use multiples of the chart timeframe for HTF requests to minimize load.
Session inputs accept exchange-local time; align them to your market.
Performance & Compliance
Pure Pine v6: Single-line statements, no `lookahead_on`.
Resource Safe: Arrays trimmed, boxes limited, `request.security` cached.
Repaint Awareness: Signals confirm on close; alerts mirror on-chart logic.
Runtime Safety: Arrays/loops guard against `na`.
Use Cases
Measure when social sentiment aligns with structure.
Plan ICT-style intraday rebalances around session-specific FVG taps.
Fade VWAP raids when displacement shows exhaustion.
Watch initial balance breaks backed by statistical volume.
Keep risk/target references anchored in ATR logic.
Signal Logic Snapshot
Social Pulse Long/Short: `sentimentEMA` gated by `sentimentMin`, `volSpike`, EMA 8/21 cross, and `momoComposite` sign agreement. Keeps hype tied to structural follow-through.
Kill-Zone FVG Long/Short: Requires session filter, HTF EMA bias alignment, and an active FVG tap (`bullFvgTap` / `bearFvgTap`). Labels include swing stops + ATR targets pulled from `swingLookback` and `liqTargetMultiple`.
Local FVG Long/Short: Uses `localBullish` / `localBearish` heuristics (EMA slope, displacement, sequential closes) to surface intraday reversals even when HTF bias has not flipped.
VWAP Raids: Detect equal-high/equal-low sweeps (`raidHigh`, `raidLow`) that revert toward `sessionVwap` or rolling VWAP when displacement exceeds `vwapAlertDisplace`.
Range Breakouts: Combine `rangeComplete`, breakout confirmation, liquidity spikes, and nearby FVG activity for statistically backed initial balance breaks.
Liquidity Spikes: Volume Z-score > `zScoreThreshold` logs direction, size, and timestamp for the HUD and optional review workflows.
Session Logic & VWAP Handling
Kill zone + NY session inputs use TradingView’s session strings; `f_inSession()` drives both visual shading and whether FVG taps are tradeable when `killZoneOnly` is true.
Session VWAP resets using cumulative price × volume sums that restart when the daily timestamp changes; rolling VWAP falls back to `ta.vwap(hlc3)` for instruments where daily resets are less relevant.
Initial balance box (`rangeBars` input) locks once complete, extends forward, and stays on chart to contextualize later liquidity raids or breakouts.
Parameter Reference
Trend: `emaFastLen`, `emaSlowLen`, `htfResolution`, `htfEmaLen`, `showEmaRibbon`, `showHtfBiasLine`.
Momentum: `tf1`, `tf2`, `tf3`, `rsiLen`, `stochLen`, `stochSmooth`, `heatmapHeight`.
Volume/Liquidity: `volLookback`, `volSpikeMult`, `zScoreLen`, `zScoreThreshold`, `equalLookback`.
VWAP & Sessions: `vwapMode`, `showVwapLine`, `vwapAlertDisplace`, `killSession`, `nySession`, `showSessionShade`, `rangeBars`.
FVG/Risk: `fvgMinTicks`, `fvgLookback`, `fvgMinSpacing`, `killZoneOnly`, `liqTargetMultiple`, `swingLookback`.
Visualization Toggles: `showSignalMarkers`, `showHeatmapBand`, `showInfoPanel`, `showStylizedCandles`.
Workflow Recipes
Kill-Zone Continuation: During the defined kill session, look for `killFvgLong` or `killFvgShort` arrows that line up with `sentimentValid` and positive `momoComposite`. Use the HUD’s risk readout to confirm SL/TP distances before entering.
VWAP Raid Fade: Outside kill zone, track `raidToVwapLong/Short`. Confirm the candle body exceeds the displacement multiplier, and price crosses back toward VWAP before considering reversions.
Range Break Monitor: After the initial balance locks, mark `rangeBreakLong/Short` circles only when the momentum band is >0 or <0 respectively and a fresh FVG box sits near price.
Liquidity Spike Review: When the HUD shows “Liquidity” timestamps, hover the plotted squares at chart bottom to see whether spikes were buy/sell oriented and if local FVGs formed immediately after.

Chop + MSS/FVG Retest (Ace v1.6) – IndicatorWhat this indicator does
Name: Chop + MSS/FVG Retest (Ace v1.6) – Indicator
This is an entry model helper, not just a BOS/MSS marker.
It looks for clean trend-side setups by combining:
MSS (Market Structure Shift) using swing highs/lows
3-bar ICT Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
First retest back into the FVG
A built-in chop / trend filter based on ATR and a moving average
When everything lines up, it plots:
L below the candle = Long candidate
S above the candle = Short candidate
You pair this with a higher-timeframe filter (like the Chop Meter 1H/30M/15M) to avoid pressing the button in garbage environments.
How it works (simple explanation)
Chop / Trend filter
Computes ATR and compares each bar’s range to ATR.
If the bar is small vs ATR → more likely CHOP.
If the bar is big vs ATR → more likely TREND.
Uses a moving average:
Above MA + TREND → trendLong zone
Below MA + TREND → trendShort zone
MSS (Market Structure Shift)
Uses swing highs/lows (left/right bars) to track the last significant high/low.
Bullish MSS: close breaks above last swing high with displacement.
Bearish MSS: close breaks below last swing low with displacement.
Those events are marked as tiny triangles (MSS up/down).
A MSS only stays “valid” for a certain number of bars (Bars after MSS allowed).
3-bar ICT FVG
Bullish FVG: low > high
→ gap between bar 3 high and bar 2 low.
Bearish FVG: high < low
→ gap between bar 3 low and bar 2 high.
The indicator stores the FVG boundaries (top/bottom).
Retest of FVG
Watches for price to trade back into that gap (first touch).
That retest is the “entry zone” after the MSS.
Final Long / Short condition
Long (L) prints when:
Recent bullish MSS
Bullish FVG has formed
Price retests the bullish FVG
Environment = trendLong (ATR + above MA)
Not CHOP
Short (S) prints when:
Recent bearish MSS
Bearish FVG has formed
Price retests the bearish FVG
Environment = trendShort (ATR + below MA)
Not CHOP
So the L/S markers are “model-approved entry candles”, not just any random BOS.
Inputs / Settings
Key inputs you’ll see:
ATR length (chop filter)
How many bars to use for ATR in the chop / trend filter.
Lower = more sensitive, twitchy
Higher = smoother, slower to change
Max chop ratio
If barRange / ATR is below this → treat as CHOP.
Min trend ratio
If barRange / ATR is above this → treat as TREND.
Hide MSS/BOS marks in CHOP?
ON = MSS triangles disappear when the bar is classified as CHOP
Keeps your chart cleaner in consolidation
Swing left / right bars
Controls how tight or wide the swing highs/lows are for MSS:
Smaller = more sensitive, more MSS points
Larger = fewer, more significant swings
Bars after MSS allowed
How many bars after a MSS the indicator will still allow FVG entries.
Small value (e.g. 10) = MSS must deliver quickly or it’s ignored.
Larger (e.g. 20) = MSS idea stays “in play” longer.
Visual RR (for info only)
Just for plotting relative risk-reward in your head.
This is not a strategy tester; it doesn’t manage positions.
What you see on the chart
Small green triangle up = Bullish MSS
Small red triangle down = Bearish MSS
“L” triangle below a bar = Long idea (MSS + FVG retest + trendLong + not chop)
“S” triangle above a bar = Short idea (MSS + FVG retest + trendShort + not chop)
Faint circle plots on price:
When the filter sees CHOP
When it sees Trend Long zone
When it sees Trend Short zone
You do not have to trade every L or S.
They’re there to show “this is where the model would have considered an entry.”
How to use it in your trading
1. Use it with a higher-timeframe filter
Best practice:
Use this with the Chop Meter 1H/30M/15M or some other HTF filter.
Only consider L/S when:
Chop Meter = TRADE / NORMAL, and
This indicator prints L or S in the right location (premium/discount, near OB/FVG, etc.)
If higher-timeframe says NO TRADE, you ignore all L/S.
2. Location > Signal
Treat L/S as confirmation, not the whole story.
For shorts (S):
Look for premium zones (previous highs, OBs, fair value ranges above mid).
Want purge / raid of liquidity + MSS down + bearish FVG retest → then S.
For longs (L):
Look for discount zones (previous lows, OBs/FVGs below mid).
Want stop raid / purge low + MSS up + bullish FVG retest → then L.
If you see L/S firing in the middle of a bigger range, that’s where you skip and let it go.
3. Instrument presets (example)
You can tune the ATR/chop settings per instrument:
MNQ (noisy, 1m chart):
ATR length: 21
Max chop ratio: 0.90
Min trend ratio: 1.40
Bars after MSS allowed: 10
GOLD (cleaner, 3m chart):
ATR length: 14
Max chop ratio: 0.80
Min trend ratio: 1.30
Bars after MSS allowed: 20
You can save those as presets in the TV settings for quick switching.
4. How to practice with it
Open replay on a couple of days.
Check Chop Meter → if NO TRADE, just observe.
When Chop Meter says TRADE:
Mark where L/S printed.
Ask:
Was this in premium/discount?
Was there SMT / purge on HTF?
Did the move actually deliver, or did it die?
Screenshot the A+ L/S and the ugly ones; refine:
ATR length
Chop / trend thresholds
MSS lookback
Your goal is to get it to where:
The L/S marks show up mostly in the same places your eye already likes,
and you ignore the rest.
FVG HTF# FVG HTF — Higher‑Timeframe Fair Value Gaps
## Summary
- Plots higher‑timeframe Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones directly on your current chart.
- Tracks fill progress using four methods: Any Touch, Midpoint Reached, Wick Sweep, Body Beyond.
- Shows optional labels with timeframe source and live fill percentage; label text color is configurable.
- Designed for clean overlays and efficient rendering with limits on graphics and bars processed.
## What It Does
- Detects bullish and bearish FVGs from a chosen timeframe (or the chart timeframe) and renders:
- Zone Top/Bottom lines and a dotted midpoint line
- Semi‑transparent area fill between the edges
- Optional label at the midpoint with a tooltip showing zone prices
- Continuously updates zones forward and removes them when the selected fill condition is met.
## Inputs
- `Enable FVG` (`fvgSH2`): Toggle detection/plotting on/off.
- `Timeframe` (`fvgTF2`): Choose `Chart` or HTFs (`5 Minutes`, `15 Minutes`, `1 Hour`, `4 Hours`, `1 Day`, `1 Week`, `1 Month`).
- `Fill Method` (`fvgFill2`):
- Any Touch — wick or body touches any part of the zone
- Midpoint Reached — price reaches at least the 50% of the zone
- Wick Sweep — wick fully travels past the far edge and back inside (conceptually stricter than touch)
- Body Beyond — candle body closes beyond the opposite edge (strong confirmation)
- `Zones` colors (`fvgCb2`, `fvgCs2`): Bullish/Bearish zone colors.
- `Labels` (`fvgLB2`): Show/Hide on‑chart labels.
- `Label Color` (`fvgLBc2`): Color picker for label text (default: white).
- `Max Bars Back` (`maxBars2`): Limits processing to recent bars for performance.
## Timeframe Rules
- The helper `htfTF` prevents selecting a timeframe lower than the chart. If an invalid lower TF is chosen, it falls back to `timeframe.period`.
- Supports minute, daily, weekly, and monthly aggregations that are safe for intraday/daily/weekly charts.
## Detection Logic
- Uses rolling higher‑timeframe bars constructed on the fly and checks 3‑bar displacement patterns:
- Bullish FVG: current HTF low above the high two bars ago AND previous HTF close above that high, with no direct gap condition.
- Bearish FVG: current HTF high below the low two bars ago AND previous HTF close below that low, with no direct gap condition.
- On detection, the script creates an FVG object with:
- Top/Bottom lines (`lnTop`, `lnBtm`) and midpoint line (`lnAvg`)
- Midpoint label (`lbTxt`) showing source timeframe and updating fill percentage
- Semi‑transparent fill (`linefill`) for visual clarity
## Fill Tracking
- Fill threshold depends on selected method:
- Any Touch: opposite edge
- Midpoint Reached: zone’s midpoint
- Wick Sweep: stricter condition conceptually (implemented as an opposite‑edge threshold)
- Body Beyond: requires close beyond the opposite edge
- Each bar updates label x‑position and line endpoints forward; the label text shows the best fill ratio achieved.
- When the threshold is reached, the FVG (label, lines, fill) is removed from the chart.
## Best Practices
- Start with `Any Touch` to visualize broad repairs; switch to `Body Beyond` for conservative confirmations.
- Use `1 Hour` or `4 Hours` overlays on 5m–15m charts for context; `1 Day` on 1H charts; `1 Week` on daily charts.
- Keep labels on when monitoring fills intraday; hide labels for clean higher‑level context.
- Adjust `Max Bars Back` if performance is impacted by many zones.
## Repainting Notes
- HTF zones are computed on `timeframe.change(tf)` and therefore confirm on HTF bar closes.
- Label endpoints extend each bar; detection itself avoids lookahead bias. For strict confirmation, align entries with HTF closes.
## Limitations
- “Wick Sweep” is treated as a stricter touch to the far edge; it does not enforce a separate “return inside” bar state.
- Label text color applies uniformly to bull/bear labels. If you need separate colors per side, contact the author.

## Quick Start
1. Enable FVG and choose your HTF (e.g., `1 Hour`).
2. Pick a Fill Method (start with `Any Touch`).
3. Select zone colors and label text color.
4. Set `Max Bars Back` as needed for performance.
5. Use labels/tooltip values (Top/Mid/Bottom) to plan entries and manage risk.
The Barking Rat LiteMomentum & FVG Reversion Strategy
The Barking Rat Lite is a disciplined, short-term mean-reversion strategy that combines RSI momentum filtering, EMA bands, and Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection to identify short-term reversal points. Designed for practical use on volatile markets, it focuses on precise entries and ATR-based take profit management to balance opportunity and risk.
Core Concept
This strategy seeks potential reversals when short-term price action shows exhaustion outside an EMA band, confirmed by momentum and FVG signals:
EMA Bands:
Parameters used: A 20-period EMA (fast) and 100-period EMA (slow).
Why chosen:
- The 20 EMA is sensitive to short-term moves and reflects immediate momentum.
- The 100 EMA provides a slower, structural anchor.
When price trades outside both bands, it often signals overextension relative to both short-term and medium-term trends.
Application in strategy:
- Long entries are only considered when price dips below both EMAs, identifying potential undervaluation.
- Short entries are only considered when price rises above both EMAs, identifying potential overvaluation.
This dual-band filter avoids counter-trend signals that would occur if only a single EMA was used, making entries more selective..
Fair Value Gap Detection (FVG):
Parameters used: The script checks for dislocations using a 12-bar lookback (i.e. comparing current highs/lows with values 12 candles back).
Why chosen:
- A 12-bar displacement highlights significant inefficiencies in price structure while filtering out micro-gaps that appear every few bars in high-volatility markets.
- By aligning FVG signals with candle direction (bullish = close > open, bearish = close < open), the strategy avoids random gaps and instead targets ones that suggest exhaustion.
Application in strategy:
- Bullish FVGs form when earlier lows sit above current highs, hinting at downward over-extension.
- Bearish FVGs form when earlier highs sit below current lows, hinting at upward over-extension.
This gives the strategy a structural filter beyond simple oscillators, ensuring signals have price-dislocation context.
RSI Momentum Filter:
Parameters used: 14-period RSI with thresholds of 80 (overbought) and 20 (oversold).
Why chosen:
- RSI(14) is a widely recognized momentum measure that balances responsiveness with stability.
- The thresholds are intentionally extreme (80/20 vs. the more common 70/30), so the strategy only engages at genuine exhaustion points rather than frequent minor corrections.
Application in strategy:
- Longs trigger when RSI < 20, suggesting oversold exhaustion.
- Shorts trigger when RSI > 80, suggesting overbought exhaustion.
This ensures entries are not just technically valid but also backed by momentum extremes, raising conviction.
ATR-Based Take Profit:
Parameters used: 14-period ATR, with a default multiplier of 4.
Why chosen:
- ATR(14) reflects the prevailing volatility environment without reacting too much to outliers.
- A multiplier of 4 is a pragmatic compromise: wide enough to let trades breathe in volatile conditions, but tight enough to enforce disciplined exits before mean reversion fades.
Application in strategy:
- At entry, a fixed target is set = Entry Price ± (ATR × 4).
- This target scales automatically with volatility: narrower in calm periods, wider in explosive markets.
By avoiding discretionary exits, the system maintains rule-based discipline.

Note on Sample Size:
You’ll notice the report displays fewer than the ideal 100 trades in the strategy report above. This is intentional. The goal of the script is to isolate high-quality, short-term reversal opportunities while filtering out low-conviction setups. This means that the Barking Rat Lite strategy is very selective, filtering out over 90% of market noise. The brief timeframe shown in the strategy report here illustrates its filtering logic over a short window — not its full capabilities. As a result, even on lower timeframes like the 1-minute chart, signals are deliberately sparse — each one must pass all criteria before triggering.
For a larger dataset:
Once the strategy is applied to your chart, users are encouraged to expand the lookback range or apply the strategy to other volatile pairs to view a full sample.
💡Why 25% Equity Per Trade?
While it's always best to size positions based on personal risk tolerance, we defaulted to 25% equity per trade in the backtesting data — and here’s why:
Backtests using this sizing show manageable drawdowns even under volatile periods.
The strategy generates a sizeable number of trades, reducing reliance on a single outcome.
Combined with conservative filters, the 25% setting offers a balance between aggression and control.
Users are strongly encouraged to customize this to suit their risk profile.
What makes Barking Rat Lite valuable
Combines multiple layers of confirmation: EMA bands + FVG + RSI
Adaptive to volatility: ATR-based exits scale with market conditions

Effective FVG Indicator - ImranDescription:
The Effective FVG Indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to identify Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) in financial markets. FVGs occur when there is a significant gap between the closing price of one session and the opening price of the next session, often indicating a potential reversal point. This indicator uses volume and price movement criteria to confirm and mark these gaps effectively.
Key Features:
Fair Value Gap Detection : Identifies both bullish and bearish FVGs based on significant gaps in price.
Volume Confirmation : Confirms FVGs with high volume, ensuring that the gap is not due to a lack of liquidity.
Price Imbalance : Ensures that the gap is accompanied by a large price movement within the session, indicating strong market sentiment.
Buy/Sell Signals : Marks bullish FVGs with a green "BUY" label below the bar and bearish FVGs with a red "SELL" label above the bar.
Background Highlighting : Highlights the background with a semi-transparent green or red color when a valid FVG is detected, making it easy to spot significant gaps.
FVG Breakout/BreakdownThe FVG Breakout/Breakdown indicator is designed to identify potential breakout and breakdown opportunities in the market, based on the concept of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). FVGs are areas where price moves too quickly, leaving behind gaps between candlesticks, often seen as areas of inefficiency or imbalance that the market tends to revisit.
Key Concepts:
Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
FVG occurs when a price gap is created between candlesticks, typically when the high of one candle is lower than the low of the previous candle (for a bearish FVG) or the low of one candle is higher than the high of the previous candle (for a bullish FVG).
These gaps represent an imbalance between buying and selling pressure, and the market often revisits them, making them valuable for identifying potential entry points.
Bullish FVG: This occurs when the low of the current candle is higher than the high of the previous candle.
Condition: low > high
Bearish FVG: This occurs when the high of the current candle is lower than the low of the previous candle.
Condition: high < low
Breakout/Breakdown Signals:
Breakout: A bullish breakout signal occurs when the price breaks above a defined resistance level after an FVG gap. This suggests that the market may continue moving higher.
Breakdown: A bearish breakdown signal occurs when the price breaks below a defined support level after an FVG gap. This suggests that the market may continue moving lower.
NWOG (New Week Opening Gap):
The NWOG can be used as an additional factor to confirm the FVG signal. The gap between Friday's close and Monday's open is a crucial level for identifying the start of a new move for the week.
NWOG helps to further refine the timing of breakout or breakdown signals, only triggering them when price moves relative to the Monday Open and shows a new direction.
ICT HTF FVGs v2 (fadi)NOTICE: Instead of updating the existing ICT HTF FVGs indicator, this indicator is being published separately due to the requests to keep the original by some traders and because of the drastic change in behavior/configurations. If the original v1 version is more appropriate for your style of trading, feel free to continue to use it.
ICT HTF FVGs v2
In trading, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) refer to market inefficiencies or imbalances that occur when buying and selling activities are not equal. These gaps can be identified on various timeframes and are used in different trading strategies.
FVGs are crucial in price action trading as they highlight the difference between the current market price of an asset and its fair value. Traders use these gaps to identify potential trading opportunities, as they often indicate areas where the market may correct itself
This indicator will overlap the higher timeframe (HTF) FVGS over the current timeframe to help traders anticipate and plan their trades.
Features
Up to 6 higher timeframes (HTF) can be overlayed on a chart
Traders can limit the number of HTF FVGs to preset number of HTFs
Lower and current timeframes can be included
Configurable spacing of HTF FVGs to prevent overlapping
Configurable Smart Expansion of FVGs based on proximity to current price

Timeframe Configurations
Enable or Disable a Timeframe
The Timeframe to Display
Bullish / BISI FVG Color
Bearish / SIBI FVG Color
The number of FVGs For The Selected Timeframe
Limit to the next HTFs only can be used to display the selected number of HTF FVGs. For example, if the trader selects 3 then only 3 HTF FVGs will be displayed.
Note: If either of the next two options is selected, they will take up spots from this count.
Hide lower Timeframes restricts the FVGs to higher timeframes only. If this option is disabled, it will show lower timeframes FVGs as well.
Hide Current Timeframe removes current timeframe from the selected list of HTF FVGs. If this option is disabled, it will show current timeframe FVGs as well.
Background Transparency Enable or disable the background color (shaded area) of the FVG. If it is enabled, it will set the transparency amount. The higher the value, the more transparent the background.
Extend lines controls when and how to extend the FVG levels. There are three options:
Extension Only extends the FVGs by the specified number provided below only.
Current Candle Plus Extension extends all the FVGs beyond the current candle by the number provided below.
When in Range will only extend the FVGs near current price based on the advanced settings below. This setting will use Average True Range multiplier to calculate the range (shows FVGs that are higher or lower by the average candle size multiplied by the number in Advanced section).
Mitigated shows or hides the mitigated HTF FVGs. A FVG is considered mitigated based on one of the following options:
None will ignore mitigation and show all FVGs.
Touched when a HTF FVG is touched regardless of how deep the price get inside the FVG.
Wick filled the FVG is closed by a wick or body of a candle.
Body filled the FVG is closed by the body of a candle
Wick filled half a candle's wick or body has reached the C.E. of the FVG
Body filled half a candle body has reached the C.E. of the FVG
Extend mitigated lines sets the number of candles to extend the mitigated FVG levels by for better visibility.
Important Note: Mitigation is calculated based on the timeframe of the FVG, not current timeframe.
Display
Display settings focus on how the FVGs will be displayed. The trader is in total control and there are multiple ways to overlay FVGs on the chart.
Open / Close / C.E. / Link controls the borders. Traders can enable or disable any of them as well as set the thickness and style. Link is the right border.
C.E. also offers the option of setting the bullish (BISI) and bearish (SIBI) colors of the C.E. level
Labeling controls if the labels should be displayed next to the FVG, their color, background, and font size.
Label levels to display controls which levels to show. Open, High. or the C.E.
Label display content controls what to show in the labels, the timeframe of the label, is it a BISI or a SIBI, and a label to indicate if it is the Open or the Close.
Note: if the distance between the open and close has the potential of overlapping the labels, then the indicator will only show the C.E. label for visual clarity.
Advanced Settings
Advanced settings controls some internal calculations:
Proximity factor based on daily range used to calculate possible range of FVGs within a day's range to keep the chart clean. The higher the value, the more FVGs will be shown.
Combine labels factor for visibility used to calculate the distance between the open and close and if all the labels or only the C.E. should be displayed. The higher the value, the bigger the distance for combination (smaller numbers will show more labels).
Range should be within X candles used when "When in Range" option is selected. This is the ATR multiplier used to extend the FVGs. The higher the number, the more FVGs will be extended.
Once desired settings have been achieved, the settings can be saved as default from the bottom left of the indicator settings page for future use.
TTP IFVG Signals With EMA /ICT Gold scalpingThis script uses original logic and alerting rules. in Japan
finding ICT IFVG and EMA conditions.
#IFVG, Forex, ICT, EMA, Scalping, Indicator
This indicator automatically finds IFVG (Imbalance / Fair Value Gap) zones and gives you a buy or sell signal when price comes back and breaks out through that gap.
It also draws a colored box over the gap so you can see the zone visually, and it raises alerts when a new signal appears.
High-level logic:
On every bar, the script looks back up to “IFVG_GapBars” bars.
For each offset i it checks a 3-candle pattern:
– If the low of the newer candle is above the high of the older candle: bullish FVG (price jumped up, leaving a gap).
– If the high of the newer candle is below the low of the older candle: bearish FVG (price jumped down, leaving a gap).
When a valid FVG is found:
– For a bullish FVG it looks for a later close that breaks down through that gap (sell signal).
– For a bearish FVG it looks for a later close that breaks up through that gap (buy signal).
– A moving-average trend filter must agree (downtrend for sells, uptrend for buys).
– It checks that price has not already “filled” the gap before the breakout.
If all conditions are satisfied, it:
– Sets signal_dir = 1 for a buy, or -1 for a sell.
– Draws a box from the original FVG bar to the bar just before the breakout (extended a bit to the right), between the gap high and gap low.
– Plots an ▲ label for buys or ▼ label for sells.
– Triggers the corresponding alert conditions.
Now the parameters:
PipSizeMultilier (PipSizeManual)
Multiplies the symbol’s minimum tick size (syminfo.mintick).
It is used when converting “MinFVG_Pips” into an actual price distance.
If you feel the indicator is too sensitive (too many small gaps), you can increase this multiplier to effectively require a larger price difference.
TickSize
Internal value = syminfo.mintick * PipSizeMultiplier.
This is the actual price step the script uses as a “pip” when checking minimum gap size.
FVG Search Lookback (IFVG_GapBars)
How many bars back from the current bar the script will scan for a 3-candle FVG pattern.
Larger value = it can find older FVGs, but loop cost is higher.
Min FVG Size (Pips/Points) (MinFVG_Pips)
Minimum allowed size of the gap, measured in “pips/points” using TickSize.
If the vertical distance between the gap high and gap low is smaller than this, the gap is ignored.
0.0 means “no size filter” (every FVG is allowed).
FVG Epsilon (Price Units) (FVG_EpsPoints)
Tolerance for the FVG detection.
It is subtracted/added in the condition that checks “low > old high” or “high < old low”.
0.0 means strict gap (no overlap at all). A small positive epsilon allows tiny overlaps to still count as a gap.
Show IFVG Zones (ShowZones)
If true, the script draws a box over the IFVG zone when a signal is confirmed.
If false, no boxes are drawn; you only see the ▲ / ▼ markers and alerts.
Buy Zone Color (ZoneColorBuy)
Fill color and border color for boxes created from bearish FVGs that later produce a buy signal.
Sell Zone Color (ZoneColorSell)
Fill color and border color for boxes created from bullish FVGs that later produce a sell signal.
Box Extension (Bars) (BoxExtension)
How many extra bars to extend the right side of the box beyond the breakout bar.
The internal right coordinate is “bar_index - 1 + BoxExtension”.
Increase this if you want the zone to visually extend further into the future.
MA Period (MA_Period)
Lookback length of the moving average used as a trend filter.
MA Type (MA_Kind)
Type of moving average: “SMA” or “EMA”.
If SMA is chosen, the script uses ta.sma; if EMA, it uses ta.ema.
Moving-average filter behavior:
For sell signals (from bullish FVG): MA must be sloping down (MA < MA ) and price must be below MA.
For buy signals (from bearish FVG): MA must be sloping up (MA > MA ) and price must be above MA.
If these conditions are not satisfied, the FVG is ignored even if the gap and breakout conditions are met.
Signals and alerts:
signal_dir = 1 → buy signal, ▲ label below the bar, “IFVG Buy Alert” / “IFVG Buy/Sell Alert” can fire.
signal_dir = -1 → sell signal, ▼ label above the bar, “IFVG Sell Alert” / “IFVG Buy/Sell Alert” can fire.
signal_dir = 0 → no new signal on this bar.
In short:
This indicator finds 3-candle IFVG gaps, filters them by size and trend, waits for a clean breakout through the gap, draws a box on the original gap zone, and gives you a clear buy or sell signal plus alerts.
XAUUSD 1H – FVG Buy/Sell Signals XAUUSD 1H – Fair Value Gap (FVG) Buy/Sell Signals (No Boxes)
What it is:
A clean, signal-only indicator for Gold on the 1-hour chart. It detects 3-bar Fair Value Gaps, waits for a deep retest, then confirms with strong candle structure + trend + ADX before printing a BUY/SELL arrow. No rectangles or clutter—just selective, high-quality signals.
Why it works:
Instead of chasing breakouts, the script hunts for imbalances (FVGs) where price often returns to “fair value.” It only fires when:
price revisits the gap by a configurable depth,
the candle closes beyond the far edge with a small buffer,
the candle body is ≥ ATR × K (confirms intent),
the broader trend (EMA-50/EMA-200) agrees, and
ADX (Wilder, manual) shows sufficient strength.
Key features
✅ Signal-only: arrows/labels—no boxes on chart.
✅ Deep retest logic (percentage of zone), not just a touch.
✅ Strong close filter (edge + buffer) + ATR body filter.
✅ Trend filter (EMA-50 vs EMA-200) to keep trades with the regime.
✅ ADX strength to avoid chop.
✅ One signal per zone (optional “delete on use”).
✅ Alerts for both BUY and SELL.
✅ Built for Pine v6, non-repainting logic on bar close.
Inputs you can tune
Min FVG size (pts) – ignore tiny gaps.
Retest depth (%) – how deep price must come back into the gap.
Close buffer (pts) – extra confirmation beyond zone edge.
Min body ≥ ATR× – candle strength requirement.
Min ADX – trend strength threshold.
Expire after X bars – keep zones fresh.
Delete zone after signal – true = one-shot signals.
How I use it
Apply to XAUUSD 1H.
Keep default filters for selective signals.
For more setups, lower Min FVG size or ADX and reduce retest depth; for stricter signals, do the opposite.
Combine with S/R or session timing (London/NY) for added confluence.
Notes
Signals are generated on bar close.
Designed for clarity and discipline—fewer, cleaner arrows over constant noise.
Works on other symbols/timeframes, but tuned for Gold 1H.

FVG + Swings + ConfigurableOverview
This Pine Script v5 indicator highlights Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), plots swing‑high and swing‑low pivots, and marks single breakouts above the last swing‑high or below the last swing‑low by recoloring the breakout candle. Every aspect—gap size, count limits, colors, and feature toggles—is exposed as an input so you can tailor it to your own workflow.
Key Features
Fair Value Gaps
Detects bullish gaps when the high of bar i-2 is below the low of the current bar.
Detects bearish gaps when the low of bar i-2 is above the high of the current bar.
Draws a semi‑transparent rectangle spanning from bar i-2 to bar i + extension.
Automatically deletes oldest boxes when exceeding the user’s “Max FVG Boxes” limit.
Swing‑High / Swing‑Low Pivots
Identifies a swing‑high when the middle candle of a three‑bar sequence has the highest high.
Identifies a swing‑low when the middle candle has the lowest low.
Marks each pivot with a tiny dot above (high) or below (low) the bar.
Single Breakouts
Tracks the most recent swing‑high and swing‑low levels.
On the first close above the last swing‑high (or below the last swing‑low), recolors that single candle.
Prevents repeated coloring until a new swing pivot forms.
Full Customization
Show/Hide toggles for FVGs, swing pivots, breakouts.
Numeric inputs for FVG extension length and maximum retained boxes.
Color pickers for bullish/bearish gaps, swing pivots, and breakout candles.
ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit is a comprehensive suite of tools crafted to aid traders in pinpointing crucial trading zones and patterns within the market.
The ICT Immediate Rebalance, although frequently overlooked, emerges as one of ICT's most influential concepts, particularly when considered within a specific context. The toolkit integrates commonly used price action tools to be utilized in conjunction with the Immediate Rebalance patterns, enriching the capacity to discern context for improved trading decisions.
The ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit encompasses the following Price Action components:
ICT Immediate Rebalance
Buyside/Sellside Liquidity
Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks
Liquidity Voids
ICT Macros
🔶 USAGE
🔹 ICT Immediate Rebalance
What is an Immediate Rebalance?
Immediate rebalances, a concept taught by ICT, hold significant importance in decision-making. To comprehend the concept of immediate rebalance, it's essential to grasp the notion of the fair value gap. A fair value gap arises from market inefficiencies or imbalances, whereas an immediate rebalance leaves no gap, no inefficiencies, or no imbalances that the price would need to return to.
Rule of Thumb
After an immediate rebalance, the expectation is for two extension candles to follow; otherwise, the immediate rebalance is considered failed. It's important to highlight that both failed and successful immediate rebalances, when considered within a context, are significant signatures in trading.
Immediate rebalances can occur anywhere and in any timeframe.
🔹 Buyside/Sellside Liquidity
In the context of Inner Circle Trader's teachings, liquidity primarily refers to the presence of stop losses or pending orders, that indicate concentrations of buy or sell orders at specific price levels. Institutional traders, like banks and large financial entities, frequently aim for these liquidity levels or pools to accumulate or distribute their positions.
Buyside liquidity denotes a chart level where short sellers typically position their stops, while Sellside liquidity indicates a level where long-biased traders usually place their stops. These zones often serve as support or resistance levels, presenting potential trading opportunities.
The presentation applied here is the multi-timeframe version of our previously published Buyside-Sellside-Liquidity script.
🔹 Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks
Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks hold significant importance in technical analysis and play a crucial role in shaping market behavior.
Order blocks are fundamental elements of price action analysis used by traders to identify key levels in the market where significant buying or selling activity has occurred. These blocks represent areas on a price chart where institutional traders, banks, or large market participants have placed substantial buy or sell orders, leading to a temporary imbalance in supply and demand.
Breaker blocks, also known as liquidity clusters or pools, complement order blocks by identifying zones where liquidity is concentrated on the price chart. These areas, formed from mitigated order blocks, often act as significant barriers to price movement, potentially leading to price stalls or reversals in the future.
🔹 Liquidity Voids
Liquidity voids are sudden price changes when the price jumps from one level to another. Liquidity voids will appear as a single or a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction. These candles typically have large real bodies and very short wicks, suggesting very little disagreement between buyers and sellers.
Here is our previously released Liquidity-Voids script.
🔹 ICT Macros
In the context of ICT's teachings, a macro is a small program or set of instructions that unfolds within an algorithm, which influences price movements in the market. These macros operate at specific times and can be related to price runs from one level to another or certain market behaviors during specific time intervals. They help traders anticipate market movements and potential setups during specific time intervals.
Here is our previously released ICT-Macros script.

Liquidity Hunter - FattyTradesThis indicator is used to automatically identify and plot two forms of liquidity that will be targeted by market makers.
The first form of liquidity is based on multi-time fame highs and lows. It plots 1H, 4H, D, W, & M liquidity on an intraday chart to make it easier to identify. I believe hat liquidity is what drives the market and the most common form of this liquidity can be identified through higher time frame highs and lows. You can use whatever method you prefer to determine which liquidity pool will be targeted. When the liquidity is purged, it will be shown as dotted lines. This should not be used as traditional support/resistance, but rather as targets for the market.
The second form of liquidity is in the form of imbalances or fair value gaps. You can select a higher time frame to be plotted along with the current time frame you're viewing to identify imbalances that will likely be targeted intraday. We know that higher time frame fair value gaps work equally well as targets for market makers. When a higher time frame FVG is broken into, it can also act as a very powerful form of support and resistance. By default, when a fair value gap has been mitigated it will be removed from the chart, however this can be disabled.
Between these two forms of market maker liquidity targets on the chart, it will be easier to formulate a thesis intraday to determine where the market will move. It can help minimize the amount of switching between higher time frames that needs to be done, allowing you to identify targets while trading on your favorite intraday time frame for optimal risk/reward.
In the near future, I will build in alerting mechanism to alert when liquidity on higher time frames as been purged/mitigated.
[FrizLabz]FVG Bar
For those of you that like to keep your charts nice and tidy for your Technical Analysis!
FVG = Fair Value Gap
Fair Value Gaps are when impulse movements create an imbalance in price leaving unfilled orders.. they are popular because after one is created we often observe price return to fill these unfilled orders
3 candles make a FVG
When the high/low of most recent candle is lower/high than the low/high of the bar before last
Similar to my other FVG indicator but this one allows you to delete Filled FVGs and have them adjust when filled
Uses a line whose x1 and x2 are on the FVG bar and adjust the size of the FVG with line width because line width on line.new()s doesnt have a cap on line width like plot()s do
Not much too it I made this because a few people were asking if they could delete the FVG after it was Mitigated and since my other uses plots it wasnt possible
so I hope this works for those who were asking about it
hope you enjoy please let me know if you have an idea or find a bug,
Thank You! -
Consolidation Tracker🧭 Consolidation Tracker — Visualize Market Reversals in Real Time
The Consolidation Tracker is a minimalist yet powerful tool designed to map the anatomy of market reversals and trend transitions. It highlights the structural evolution of price through four key phases, helping traders anticipate shifts with clarity and confidence.
🔄 The Four Stages of a Market Reversal:
Failure to Displace — Price fails to break beyond recent highs or lows, signaling potential exhaustion of the current trend.
Consolidation (CAMP) — A range-bound phase where price compresses between a dynamic high and low. These zones are shaded gray, representing indecision and balance.
Engulfing (ENGULF) — A decisive candle closes beyond the CAMP high or low, suggesting a directional shift. These are highlighted in orange.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) — A three-candle pattern forms a price imbalance. If this FVG also engulfs the CAMP range, it confirms the reversal and resets the CAMP. Bullish FVGs are shaded green, bearish FVGs in red.
🔁 From Reversal to Trend:
Once a reversal is confirmed via an FVG, the market often transitions into a trend cycle characterized by:
Displacement — Strong directional movement away from the prior range.
Fair Value Gaps — Continuation imbalances that offer high-probability entries on retracements.
🧠 How It Works:
The indicator dynamically tracks CAMP highs and lows, updating only when a candle engulfs the range or a valid FVG forms.
FVGs are detected when a three-candle sequence creates a gap between candle 2 and 0, and the middle candle (candle 1) breaks the CAMP boundary.
CAMP levels are plotted as horizontal lines, while background colors narrate the evolving structure in real time.
This tool is ideal for traders who value market structure, price efficiency, and narrative clarity. Whether you're anticipating reversals or riding trends, the Consolidation Tracker offers a clean, actionable lens into price behavior.
