Order Block & Fractal Zones (OBFZ) Indicator.The "Order Block & Fractal Zones (OBFZ) Indicator." indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to identify and display key price levels on a chart. It utilizes the concept of Order Blocks and the Fractal Value Zone (FVG) to highlight potential support and resistance areas in the market.
The indicator marks bearish and bullish Order Blocks, which are significant price structures characterized by consecutive higher highs and higher lows for a bearish block, or consecutive lower lows and lower highs for a bullish block. These blocks suggest potential areas of market reversal.
Additionally, the indicator calculates and displays retracement and extension levels within each Order Block. These levels are derived from the previous highest and lowest values within a specified number of candles. The retracement levels include 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8%, while the extension levels include 138.2%, 150%, and 161.8%.
Furthermore, the Fractal Value Zone (FVG) is determined to identify the highest high and lowest low within the selected number of candles. The FVG helps identify areas of significant price action and potential breakout zones.
Overall, the "Order Block & Fractal Zones (OBFZ) Indicator." indicator assists traders in identifying potential support and resistance levels, as well as areas of market reversal or breakout. It can be used to make informed trading decisions based on key price levels within the observed price action.

Bodies X Wix Version of Smart Money Tools by makuchaku & eFeThis is the same Script as Super Fair Value Gaps / FVG /BoS / by makuchaku & eFe. Mine Should Default to Large Text instead of small. The Super Order Blocks I believe was meant to for you to find one of the many Smart Money tools such as turn on the Fair Value gap but leave the others off, or Turn on where the Break of Structure and leave the others off. The reason I believe this is because the default values for each of the structures were default colored (green for positive and red for negative) for all.
Mine has a different Color for every possible structure. As long as you can read with the larger text that I added, then you can create your own boxes positive for break of structure, rejection block, order blocks and fair value gaps for any time frame. The reason I did that is because There's only certain things I believe I will need to mark for myself in each time frame, and then from there You can stretch iyour own box out further in time because if price touches a fair value gap for example, the fair value gap should conyinue in time until at least 2 candles have filed the Fair valu gap going both directions. That's truly when the fair value gap should is mitigated and will from off the chart. However, If I knew How to add the code for that, I would.
Additionally, I have the Max Boxes per chart, so you should have the ability to see every OB, FVG,RJB, & BoS on the chart
I tried my hardest to create a colored border that was different from the box. But the way the original was coded was almost impossible to do. Because they defined each of the structures (FVG, OB, BoS, RJB) outer levels, when the outer levels connect via math in the code, then it joins all the outside lines for a rectangle. When creating a box, the coloe will always be the same as the border unfortunately. (Unless I replan this from the beginning)
I also Changed the default labels for reach structure from a hard to read gray to a white that pops out.
Also, chart indicators are a little large as well. Such as the cross, sideways cross, The green Triangle, and the white Diamond. You'll get used to it or you can change it as well.
Creating videos for students, you need something they can see.
So, I just wanted to ensure everything was a little more unique and easily usable when showing this to my students when I send them private videos for our weekly lessons. I'm trying to learn how to use the IPFS for THAT, (which i see has invaded PineScript) Hope this indicator helps.

Cnagda Liquidit Trading SystemCnagda Liquidit Trading System helps spot where price is likely to trap traders and reverse, then gives simple, actionable Level to entry, place SL, and take profits with confidence. It blends imbalance zones, trend bias, order blocks, liquidity pools, high-probability fake Signal, and context-aware candle patterns into one clean workflow.
🟩🟥 Imbalance boxes: “Crowd rushed, gaps left”
What it is: Green/red boxes mark fast, one-sided moves where price “skipped” orders—think FVG-like zones that often get revisited.
Why it helps: Price frequently pulls back to “fill” these zones, creating clean retest entries with logical stops.
⏩How to use:
Green box = potential demand retest; Red box = potential supply retest. Enter on pullback into box, not on first impulse. Put stop on far side of box and aim first targets at recent swing points.
↕️ Swing bias (HH/HL vs LH/LL): “Which way is the road?”
What it is: Higher-highs/higher-lows = up-bias; Lower-highs/lower-lows = down-bias. system plots Buy/Sell OB levels aligned with that bias.
Why it helps: Trading with the broader flow reduces “hero trades” against institutions. Bias gives clearer entries and cleaner drawdowns.
⏩How to use:
Up-bias: look for long on Buy OB retests. Down-bias: look for short on Sell OB retests. Wait for a small rejection/engulfing to confirm before triggering.
🧱Order blocks: “Where big players remember”
What it is: last opposite-colored candle before an impulsive move—these zones often hold memory and reaction. system plots these as Buy/Sell OB lines.
Why it helps: Many breakouts pull back to the origin. Good entries often happen on retest, not on the breakout chase.
⏩ How to use:
Let price return into the OB, show wick rejection, and decent volume. Enter with stop beyond OB; define risk-reward before entry.
📊Volume coloring: “How Volume is move?”
What it is: Bar color reflects relative volume; inside bars are black. The dashboard also shows Volume and “Volume vs Prev.”
Why it helps: Patterns without volume often fade; volume validates strength and intent of moves.
⏩ How to use:
Favor entries where imbalance/OB/liquidity-grab coincide with higher volume. If volume is weak, reduce size or skip.
🧲 BSL/SSL liquidity pools: “Fishing for stops”
What it is: Equal highs cluster stops above (BSL); equal lows cluster stops below (SSL). system plots these and highlights the nearest one (“magnet”).
Why it helps: Price often sweeps these pools to trigger stops before reversing. This is a prime trap-reversal location.
⏩ How to use:
Watch nearest BSL/SSL. If price wicks through and closes back inside, anticipate a reversal. Trade reaction, not first poke. When price closes beyond, consider that pool mitigated and move on.
🟢🔴 Advanced liquidity grab: “Catch fakeout”
What it is: Bullish grab = makes a new low beyond a prior low but closes back above it, with a long lower wick, small body, and higher volume. Bearish is mirror. Labeled automatically.
Why it helps: It exposes trap moves (stop hunts) and often precedes true direction.
⏩ How to use:
Best when it aligns with a nearby imbalance/OB and supportive volume. Enter on reversal candle break or on retest. Stop goes beyond sweep wick.
🧠 Smart candlestick patterns (only in right place)
What it is: Engulfing, Hammer, Shooting Star, Hanging Man, Doji (with high volume), Morning/Evening Star, Piercing—but marked “effective” only if context (swing/trend/location) agrees.
Why it helps: same pattern in the wrong place is noise; in the right place, it’s signal.
⏩ How to use:
Location first (BSL/SSL/OB/imbalance), then pattern. Treat pattern as trigger/confirmation—one fresh label shows to keep chart clean.
🧭 Dashboard: “Context in a glance”
⏩ Reversal Level: current swing anchor—expect turns or reactions nearby; great for alerts and planning.
⏩ Volume vs Prev + Volume: Strength meter for signal candle—higher adds conviction.
⏩ Nearest Pool: next “magnet” area—look for sweeps/rejections there.
🧩Step-by-step trading flow (with mindset)
⏩ Set bias: HH/HL = long bias, LH/LL = short bias. Counter-trend only on clean sweeps with strong confirmation.
⏩ Find magnet: Check Nearest Pool (BSL/SSL). Focus attention there; it saves screen time.
⏩ Wait for event: Look for a sweep/grab label, or sharp rejection at pool/OB/imbalance. Avoid FOMO.
⏩ Add confluence: Stack 2–3 of these—imbalance box, OB, contextual pattern, supportive volume.
⏩Plan entry: Bullish: trigger above reversal candle high or take retest of FVG/OB. Stop below sweep wick/zone. Target at least 1:1.5–1:2.
Bearish: mirror above.
⏩Manage smartly: Take partials, move to breakeven or trail thoughtfully. Don’t drag stops inside zone out of emotion.
🎛️ Parameter tuning (to reduce human error)
⏩ swingLen: Smaller = faster but noisier; larger = cleaner but slower. Backtest first, then go live.
⏩ Tolerance (ATR or percent): ATR tolerance adapts to volatility (good for fast markets and lower TFs). Start around 0.15–0.30. In calm markets, try percent 0.05–0.15%.
⏩ minBarsGap: Start with 3–5 so equal highs/lows are truly equal—reduces false pools.
❌Common mistakes → ✅ Better habits
⏩Chasing every breakout → Wait for sweep/rejection, then confirm.
⏩Ignoring volume → Validate strength; cut size or skip on weak volume.
⏩Losing history of pools → If reviewing/backtesting, keep mitigated pools visible (dashed/faded).
⏩Over-tight tolerance/too small swingLen → Increases false signals; backtest to find balance.
📝 checklist (before entry)
⏩ Is there a nearby BSL/SSL and did a sweep/grab happen there?
⏩ Is there a close imbalance/OB that price can retest?
⏩ Do we have an effective pattern plus supportive volume?
⏩Is the stop beyond the wick/zone and RR ≥ 1:1.5?

Advance Trading SystemThis Price Action + Volume based indicator combines Multi‑Timeframe swing structure, volume ranking, liquidity zones and auto long/short signal generation to create an “Advance Trading System” that displays OB (order block‑like) levels, dashboard and entry/exit labels on the chart.
What this indicator does
Looks at recent candles on different timeframes to determine if the trend is more “bullish” or “bearish” (considers it bullish if at least 2 out of 3 timeframes agree).
Picks up the recent swing points where the price can reverse and plots green/red lines on them (called “Buy OB”/“Sell OB” here).
Shows when volume has increased, whether the bar is an inside-bar or not, and a small dashboard in the top-right that shows the trend, reversal levels, volume and LTF/HTF signals.
What are the buttons/settings
Swing Strength: Based on how many bars the recent swing high/low will be confirmed; if the number increases, the signal will come late but with more confidence.
Volume Avg Period: How many bars the volume should be averaged from; this checks “whether the volume is strong or not”.
Show HH/HL/LH/LL Labels: Switch to show/hide swing labels by writing them on the chart.
Show Dashboard: Small panel on/off in the top-right.
Signal Mode: Auto, Long Only, Short Only or Both—that is, whether to follow the auto-trend or see only buy/sell.
LTF/HTF: Choose lower and higher timeframes; also 15m/30m/1h/4h are scanned in the background to understand the recent direction.
How to identify trends and swings
Candle patterns: Simple rule—if the latest candle is biased (e.g. a strong bull/bear or a particularly long wick candle), then the signal for that TF is 1 (bull) or -1 (bear); otherwise 0.
Three TFs: Lower, Mid (which is the chart TF), and Higher—the non-zero signal is considered the “last known direction”; then the number of the three is counted as bull/bear.
Swing high/low: The most recent “solid” high/low on the chart is considered the highest/lowest within a few bars to the left or right; this indicates whether the new high is above (HH) or below (LH) the old one, and whether the new low is above (HL) or below (LL).
What are the green/red lines
If the trend is bullish (at least 2 out of 3 TFs are bullish), a green line is drawn near the previous confirmed low—here it is called Buy OB; the idea is that if the price comes near this zone, a bounce is expected.
On a bearish trend, a red line is drawn near the previous confirmed high—Sell OB—which means if the price comes near that zone, a drop is expected.
Volume colors and inside-bars
color of each bar is determined by the volume ranking: orange/yellow for low volume, varying shades of blue for high volume; if an inside-bar is formed (both high/low inside the previous bar) the bar is darkened to draw attention.
Simple estimation of liquidity zone
When the recent swing high is formed, the total volume is looked at in the surrounding few bars (eg: 3-3 bars before/after) and the upper/lower edge is noted where the maximum concentration is - this is considered as the liquidity zone.
The same is done for the high TF as well and the average of both is taken to form an MTF zone to get a big-picture picture.
What the dashboard shows
Trend (Multi‑TF): HL/HH indicates bullish trend, LH/LL indicates bearish trend; color green/red.
Reversal Level: Level where the recent reversal was confirmed (high/low of the last confirmed swing).
Volume vs Prev: Volume higher/lower/equal to the previous bar.
Volume: Raw number, color green/red depending on whether Price is buy or sell.
LTF/HTF: Last received signal as BUY/SELL.
How entry/exit signals are formed
Basic conditions:
Mood bias: at least 2 TFs in the same direction.
Volume strength: current volume is well above average and higher than the previous bar—i.e. there is real juice.
Near zone: price is in a small band around the green/red line (e.g. within about -2% to +1% for Buy).
Long Entry : all three conditions above are met on the previous close of the bar in the buy direction; Short Entry is the opposite. Exit rule is also placed on the previous bar of the opposite signal, so that everything is on a “confirmed close” and false shocks are minimized.
Labels: once the signal is confirmed, the labels “LONG ENTRY”, “LONG EXIT”, “SHORT ENTRY”, “SHORT EXIT” are applied to the chart on the previous bar itself, with a small ATR-based gap for clear reading.
How Auto/Manual modes work
Auto (TF Based): The system will decide whether to look at Long Only, Short Only, or Both—depending on the Multi‑TF trend.
Long Only/Short Only: Only signals from that side will be generated; Both will generate both.
What to look for in the limits
Swing confirmation takes time, as you have to wait for a few bars to the right—so the signal is more reliable with a slight delay.
The term “OB” is used here for a simple level; this is not pro-level order-block detection (such as with FVG/break-off-structure), but it works well with this system.
Volume ranking is simple; ties are possible at equal volume, which can reduce precision in color-coding.
How to use
First check the trend from the dashboard: focus on the buy zone if HL/HH, sell zone if LH/LL.
Then check if there is a volume spike; without volume confirmation it is better to skip signals.
When the price is right near the green/red line, only work with a confirmed signal on the previous close bar, avoid rushing in between.
This can be made more robust if desired by adding true order‑block, FVG, and additional confirmations (such as RSI/MACD/Structure Break); but the base idea is to combine multi‑timeframe trend + swing levels + volume strength + zone close to produce simple, Tradeable and confirmed signals.
XAU 1H Clean Confluence — Micro Table v2XAU 1H Clean Confluence — Micro Table
What it is
A clean, low-clutter 1-hour XAUUSD indicator that summarizes confluences in a compact on-chart table. It’s designed for traders who want structure + momentum + location without covering the chart in drawings.
Best used on: ICMARKETS:XAUUSD or your broker’s XAUUSD feed, 1H timeframe.
Style: Table-only by default (optional EMA200 line and tiny signal markers).
How signals are built (long example; shorts mirror)
A Long Confluence is printed when all of the below are true:
Trend alignment: EMA20 > EMA50 > EMA200
Pullback & re-engage: price crossed back above EMA20 after a pullback
RSI regime: RSI(14) crosses up through 50 (trend confirmation)
Displacement/imbalance: a 3-candle Bull FVG exists (low > high )
Structure: either a BOS up or CHOCH up via swing pivots (pivotLen input)
Sweep (optional): if enabled, require a sweep of Asian Low and/or PDL first
Time gating (optional): only during London/NY windows and outside news windows
Short signals use the mirrored conditions (EMA stack down, cross back below EMA20, RSI cross down through 50, Bear FVG, BOS/CHOCH down, optional Asian High/PDH sweep).
XAUUSD Strength Dashboard with VolumeXAUUSD Strength Dashboard with Volume Analysis
📌 Description
This advanced Pine Script indicator provides a multi-timeframe dashboard for XAUUSD (Gold vs. USD), combining price action analysis with volume confirmation to generate high-probability trading signals. It detects:
✅ Break of Structure (BOS)
✅ Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
✅ Change of Character (CHOCH)
✅ Trendline Breaks (9/21 SMA Crossover)
✅ Volume Spikes (Confirmation of Strength)
The dashboard displays strength scores (0-100%) and action recommendations (Strong Buy/Buy/Neutral/Sell/Strong Sell) across multiple timeframes, helping traders identify confluences for better trade decisions.
🎯 How It Works
1. Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Fetches data from 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, Daily, and Weekly timeframes.
Compares trend direction, BOS, FVG, CHOCH, and volume spikes across all timeframes.
2. Volume-Confirmed Strength Score
The Strength Score (0-100%) is calculated using:
Trend Direction (25 points) → 9 SMA vs. 21 SMA
Break of Structure (20 points) → New highs/lows with momentum
Fair Value Gaps (10 points) → Imbalance zones
Change of Character (10 points) → Shift in market structure
Trendline Break (20 points) → SMA crossover confirmation
Volume Spike (15 points) → High volume confirms moves
Score Interpretation:
≥75% → Strong Buy (High confidence bullish move)
60-74% → Buy (Bullish but weaker confirmation)
40-59% → Neutral (No strong bias)
25-39% → Sell (Bearish but weaker confirmation)
≤25% → Strong Sell (High confidence bearish move)
3. Dashboard & Chart Markers
Dashboard Table: Shows Trend, BOS, Volume, CHOCH, TL Break, Strength %, Key Level, and Action for each timeframe.
Chart Markers:
🟢 Green Triangles → Bullish BOS
🔴 Red Triangles → Bearish BOS
🟢 Green Circles → Bullish CHOCH
🔴 Red Circles → Bearish CHOCH
📈 Green Arrows → Bullish Trendline Break
📉 Red Arrows → Bearish Trendline Break
"Vol↑" (Lime) → Bullish Volume Spike
"Vol↓" (Maroon) → Bearish Volume Spike
🚀 How to Use
1. Dashboard Interpretation
Higher Timeframes (D/W) → Show the dominant trend.
Lower Timeframes (1m-4h) → Help with entry timing.
Strength Score ≥75% or ≤25% → Look for high-confidence trades.
Volume Spikes → Confirm breakouts/reversals.
2. Trading Strategy
📈 Long (Buy) Setup:
Higher TFs (D/W/4h) show bullish trend (↑).
Current TF has BOS & Volume Spike.
Strength Score ≥60%.
Key Level (Low) holds as support.
📉 Short (Sell) Setup:
Higher TFs (D/W/4h) show bearish trend (↓).
Current TF has BOS & Volume Spike.
Strength Score ≤40%.
Key Level (High) holds as resistance.
3. Customization

Bullish or bearish divergence on M1—signals early reversal risk.
Momentum Flip:
“UP” or “DN” appears if RSI M1 crosses the 50 line, confirmed by location and other filters.
Chart Signals (Arrows & Markers):
Flip arrows (up/down) and Liquidity markers only appear when price is at/near a key Supply/Demand zone and confirmed by either a volume spike or strong confluence.
No signal spam:
If you see an arrow or LIQ tag, it’s a truly significant moment!
Suggested Trading Workflow:
Scan the Dashboard:
Is the multi-timeframe trend aligned?
Are you near a major Supply or Demand zone?
Is the Confluence Score high (5 or more)?
Check for Signals:
Is there a Flip or LIQ marker near a Supply/Demand zone?
Is volume spiking or a fakeout just occurred?
Look for Reversal or Continuation:
If there’s a Flip at Demand (with high confluence), consider a long setup.
If there’s a LIQ sweep + flip + volume at Supply, consider a short.
Manage Risk:
Don’t chase every signal.
Confirm with your entry criteria and preferred session timing.
Pro Tips:
Highest confidence trades:
When dashboard signals and chart arrows/markers agree, especially with high confluence and volume spike.
Adapt pip distance filter:
Dashboard is tuned for FX and gold; for other assets, adjust pip-size filter if needed.
Use alerts (if enabled):
Set up custom TradingView alerts for “Flip” or “Liquidity” signals for auto-notifications.

Path of Least ResistancePath of Least Resistance (PLR)
Concept Overview
The Path of Least Resistance indicator identifies key zones on your chart that act like "muddy" or "sticky" areas where price tends to get bogged down, creating choppy and unpredictable price action. Between these zones lie the "empty spaces" - clear paths where price can move freely with momentum and direction.
The Analogy: Muddy Fields vs Open Roads
Think of your chart like a landscape:
🟫 ZONES (Muddy/Sticky Areas)
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) from higher timeframes
Pivot wick zones from higher timeframe pivots
Areas where price gets "stuck" and churns
Like walking through thick mud - slow, choppy, unpredictable movement
Price action becomes erratic and difficult to trade
🟢 EMPTY SPACES (Open Roads)
The clear areas between zones
Where price can move freely with momentum
Like driving on an open highway - smooth, directional movement
The "Path of Least Resistance" for price movement
Trading Philosophy
AVOID Trading Within Zones:
Price action is typically choppy and unpredictable
Higher probability of false signals and whipsaws
Like trying to drive through mud - you'll get stuck
TRADE Through the Empty Spaces:
Look for moves that travel between zones
Price tends to move with momentum and direction
Higher probability setups with cleaner price action
Like taking the highway instead of back roads
Zone Types Detected
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
Imbalances from higher timeframe candles
Areas where price "owes" a return visit
Often act as magnets, creating choppy price action
Pivot Wick Zones
Upper and lower wicks from higher timeframe pivots
Rejection areas where price previously struggled
Often create resistance/support that leads to choppy movement
Color Coding System
The zones dynamically change color based on current price position:
🔴 RED ZONES : Price is below the zone (bearish context)
🟢 GREEN ZONES : Price is above the zone (bullish context)
🔘 GRAY ZONES : Price is within the zone (neutral/choppy area)
The "Mum Trades" Strategy
The best trades - what we call "Mum trades" (trades so obvious even your mum could spot them) - happen in the empty spaces between zones:
✅ High Probability Characteristics:
Clear directional movement between zones
Less noise and false signals
Higher momentum and follow-through
Cleaner technical patterns
❌ Avoid These Areas:
Trading within the muddy zones
Expecting clean moves through sticky areas
Fighting against the natural flow of price
Key Features
Auto Timeframe Detection : Automatically selects appropriate higher timeframe
Dynamic Zone Management : Overlapping zones are automatically cleaned up
Real-time Alerts : Get notified when price enters/exits zones
Visual Clarity : Clean zone display with extending boundaries
How to Use
Identify the Zones : Let the indicator mark the muddy areas
Find the Paths : Look for clear spaces between zones
Plan Your Trades : Target moves that travel through empty space
Avoid the Mud : Stay away from trading within the zones
Follow the Flow : Trade with the path of least resistance
Remember
Price, like water, always seeks the path of least resistance. By identifying where that path is clear (empty spaces) versus where it's obstructed (zones), you can align your trading with the natural flow of the market rather than fighting against it.
The goal is simple: Trade the highways, avoid the mud.
4-EMA Signals + MTF Analysis4-EMA Signals + MTF Analysis Indicator: User Guide
This indicator is designed for active traders; from scalpers / intra-day traders to swing-traders who simply want an easy to understand, simple, but yet comprehensive and easy-to-understand indicator with a quick overview of initial market momentum and overall market direction to assist the trader in their initial trading.
The main feature of this indicator is that It overlays four exponential moving averages (EMAs), and provides a dashboard of real-time trend signals for both buy and sell (long/short) scenarios.
Settings Overview
MA Period Setup
Custom: Set your own EMA periods.
Conservative, Aggressive, Fibonacci: Quickly apply preset EMA period combinations for different trading styles.
EMA Periods (Custom Setup)
Fast EMA: Shortest EMA, reacts quickly to price (default 7).
Medium-Short EMA: Intermediate speed (default 25).
Medium-Long EMA: Slower, filters out more noise (default 70).
Slow EMA: Longest-term trend (default 200).
(These settings can be adjusted to suit your individual needs)
Main Indicator Features
Four EMAs : Plotted in distinct colors (green, yellow, orange, red) for quick trend recognition - this can be altered in colour to your personal preferences.
Buy/Sell Signals : Triangles appear below/above bars when EMA crossovers occur, optionally filtered by volume - the volume filter when applied greatly reduces the influx of signals, only giving high-quality signals!
Trading Sessions + Backgrounds : A trading session feature has been added: (London, New York, Asia, Sydney) with the choice of a background to indicate each global trading session.
Volume Overlay : Volume bars and a blue volume moving average line for context.
Dashboard Table (Top Right):
Market Direction: Shows the overall EMA alignment (bullish, bearish, weak, consolidating).
The initial trend on the 5m, 15m, 1H, and 4H time-frame to give a quick snapshot of overall trend direction.
How to Use
Trend Identification :
-- Use the EMA alignment and dashboard table to quickly see if the market is bullish, bearish, or consolidating.
EMA Set-up
-- Adjust the EMA settings to your specific requirements, the signals will alter depending on the volatility of the instrument your trading.
Signal Confirmation :
-- ''Buy'' signals simply appear when the faster EMAs cross above slower EMAs in and ''Sell'' signals simply appear when they cross below.
Volume Context :
--Use the volume moving average and the optional volume filter to avoid signals during low-activity periods.
No Repainting :
-- All signals and dashboard readings are calculated using only confirmed, closed bars. What you see in real time is exactly what will appear in your back-test — no repainting or look-ahead bias.
Alerts / Notifications
Now for the fun part:
1. Enable Buy/Sell Signal Alerts: Get notifications when buy or sell signals occur.
2. For Alerts to function correctly, set the ''condition'' to the indicator itself.
3. Select ''EMA Bearish Cross'' or ''EMA Bullish Cross'' depending whether you want alerts for either buy/sell signals - Or one can simply set alerts for both scenarios.
4. For ''Interval'' set to ''Same as chart'' - So, the time-frame which you'd like to trade on.
5. For ''Trigger'' set to ''Once Per Bar Close''.
6. Save.
7. Wait for a signal to occur!
NOTE: Before placing a trade, it's often best to also assess the market conditions at that time also - and not rely solely on the signals, the signals are to assist, and it's often occurred a signal has shown, but a pull-back occurs, and a FVG in discount holds -- it's this FVG holding, accompanied by volume, that's the real entry, possibly.
Tip: For the cleanest results, use the indicator during the most active sessions and always check multi-time-frame trend alignment before entering trades. Good Luck! :)
CommonUtils█ OVERVIEW
This library is a utility tool for Pine Script™ developers. It provides a collection of helper functions designed to simplify common tasks such as mapping user-friendly string inputs to Pine Script™ constants and formatting timeframe strings for display. The primary goal is to make main scripts cleaner, more readable, and reduce repetitive boilerplate code. It is envisioned as an evolving resource, with potential for new utilities to be added over time based on community needs and feedback.
█ CONCEPTS
The library primarily focuses on two main concepts:
Input Mapping
Pine Script™ often requires specific constants for function parameters (e.g., `line.style_dashed` for line styles, `position.top_center` for table positions). However, presenting these technical constants directly to users in script inputs can be confusing. Input mapping involves:
Allowing users to select options from more descriptive, human-readable strings (e.g., "Dashed", "Top Center") in the script's settings.
Providing functions within this library (e.g., `mapLineStyle`, `mapTablePosition`) that take these user-friendly strings as input.
Internally, these functions use switch statements or similar logic to convert (map) the input string to the corresponding Pine Script™ constant required by built-in functions.
This approach enhances user experience and simplifies the main script's logic by centralizing the mapping process.
Timeframe Formatting
Raw timeframe strings obtained from variables like `timeframe.period` (e.g., "1", "60", "D", "W") or user inputs are not always ideal for direct display in labels or panels. The `formatTimeframe` function addresses this by:
Taking a raw timeframe string as input.
Parsing this string to identify its numerical part and unit (e.g., minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, seconds, milliseconds).
Converting it into a more standardized and readable format (e.g., "1min", "60min", "Daily", "Weekly", "1s", "10M").
Offering an optional `customSuffix` parameter (e.g., " FVG", " Period") to append to the formatted string, making labels more descriptive, especially in multi-timeframe contexts.
The function is designed to correctly interpret various common timeframe notations used in TradingView.
█ NOTES
Ease of Use: The library functions are designed with simple and understandable signatures. They typically take a string input and return the corresponding Pine Script™ constant or a formatted string.
Default Behaviors: Mapping functions (`mapLineStyle`, `mapTablePosition`, `mapTextSize`) generally return a sensible default value (e.g., `line.style_solid` for `mapLineStyle`) in case of a non-matching input. This helps prevent errors in the main script.
Extensibility of Formatting: The `formatTimeframe` function, with its `customSuffix` parameter, allows for flexible customization of timeframe labels to suit the specific descriptive needs of different indicators or contexts.
Performance Considerations: These utility functions primarily use basic string operations and switch statements. For typical use cases, their impact on overall script performance is negligible. However, if a function like `formatTimeframe` were to be called excessively in a loop with dynamic inputs (which is generally not its intended use), performance should be monitored.
No Dependencies: This library is self-contained and does not depend on any other external Pine Script™ libraries.
█ EXPORTED FUNCTIONS
mapLineStyle(styleString)
Maps a user-provided line style string to its corresponding Pine Script™ line style constant.
Parameters:
styleString (simple string) : The input string representing the desired line style (e.g., "Solid", "Dashed", "Dotted" - typically from constants like LS1, LS2, LS3).
Returns: The Pine Script™ constant for the line style (e.g., line.style_solid). Defaults to line.style_solid if no match.
mapTablePosition(positionString)
Maps a user-provided table position string to its corresponding Pine Script™ position constant.
Parameters:
positionString (simple string) : The input string representing the desired table position (e.g., "Top Right", "Top Center" - typically from constants like PP1, PP2).
Returns: The Pine Script™ constant for the table position (e.g., position.top_right). Defaults to position.top_right if no match.
mapTextSize(sizeString)
Maps a user-provided text size string to its corresponding Pine Script™ size constant.
Parameters:
sizeString (simple string) : The input string representing the desired text size (e.g., "Tiny", "Small" - typically from constants like PTS1, PTS2).
Returns: The Pine Script™ constant for the text size (e.g., size.tiny). Defaults to size.small if no match.
formatTimeframe(tfInput, customSuffix)
Formats a raw timeframe string into a more display-friendly string, optionally appending a custom suffix.
Parameters:
tfInput (simple string) : The raw timeframe string from user input or timeframe.period (e.g., "1", "60", "D", "W", "1S", "10M", "2H").
customSuffix (simple string) : An optional suffix to append to the formatted timeframe string (e.g., " FVG", " Period"). Defaults to an empty string.
Returns: The formatted timeframe string (e.g., "1min", "60min", "Daily", "Weekly", "1s", "10min", "2h") with the custom suffix appended.
Anchored VWAP by Time (Math by Thomas)📄 Description
This tool lets you plot an Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) starting from any specific date and time you choose. Unlike standard VWAPs that reset daily or weekly, this version gives you full control to track institutional pricing zones from precise anchor points—such as key swing highs/lows, market open, or news-driven candles.
It’s especially useful for price action and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) traders who track liquidity, fair value gaps (FVGs), and institutional zones.
🇮🇳 For NSE India Traders
You can anchor VWAP to Indian market open (e.g., 9:15 AM IST) or major events like RBI policy, earnings, or breakout candles.
The time input uses UTC by default, so for Indian Standard Time (IST), remember:
9:15 AM IST = 3:45 AM UTC
3:30 PM IST = 10:00 AM UTC
⚙️ How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Open the settings panel.
Under “Anchor Start Time”, choose the date & time to begin the VWAP.
Use UTC format (adjust from IST if needed).
Customize the line color and thickness to suit your chart style.
The VWAP will begin plotting from that time forward.
🔎 Best Use Cases
Track VWAP from intraday range breakouts
Anchor from swing highs/lows to identify mean reversion zones
Combine with your FVGs, Order Blocks, or CHoCHs
Monitor VWAP reactions during key macro events or expiry days
🔧 Clean Design
No labels are used, keeping your chart clean.
Works on all timeframes (1min to Daily).
Designed for serious intraday & positional traders.
US30 Smart Money 5M/4H Strategy🧠 How It Works
✅ 1. 4H Trend Bias Detection
Uses the 4-hour chart (internally) to determine if the market is in an uptrend or downtrend.
Background turns green for bullish trend, red for bearish trend.
This helps filter trades — only take longs during uptrend, shorts during downtrend.
✅ 2. Liquidity Sweeps (Stop Hunts) on 5M
Highlights candles that break previous highs/lows and then reverse (typical of institutional stop raids).
Draws a shaded red box above sweep-high candles and green box under sweep-lows.
These indicate key reversal zones.
✅ 3. Order Block Zones
Detects bullish/bearish engulfing patterns after liquidity sweeps.
Draws a supply or demand zone box extending forward.
These zones show where institutions likely placed large orders.
✅ 4. FVG Midpoint from 30-Min Chart
Detects Fair Value Gaps (imbalances) on the 30-minute chart.
Plots a line at the midpoint of the gap (EQ level), which is often revisited for entries or rejections.
✅ 5. Buy/Sell Signals (Non-Repainting)
Buy = 4H uptrend + 5M liquidity sweep low + bullish engulfing candle.
Sell = 4H downtrend + 5M liquidity sweep high + bearish engulfing.
Prints green “BUY” or red “SELL” label on the chart — these do not repaint.
📈 How to Use It
Wait for trend bias — only take trades in the direction of the 4H trend.
Watch for liquidity sweep boxes — these hint a stop hunt just occurred.
Look for a signal label (BUY/SELL) — confirms entry criteria.
Use FVG EQ lines & Order Block zones as confluence or targets.
Take trades after NY open (9:30 AM EST) for best momentum.
ICT Turtle Soup (Liquidity Reversal)ICT Turtle Soup — Liquidity Reversal Detection
Trap the Trap: A Precision Reversal Strategy from the Inner Circle Trader Playbook
This indicator implements the Turtle Soup liquidity reversal setup — a widely used ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concept that targets false breakouts beyond recent swing highs or lows. These patterns typically occur when price grabs liquidity above or below a known level, then snaps back, trapping retail traders and creating a high-probability reversal scenario.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Detects Liquidity Sweeps Above/Below Key Swing Levels
Uses a customizable swing lookback to identify recent swing highs and lows.
Triggers a Bearish Turtle Soup when price runs above a previous swing high and closes back below.
Triggers a Bullish Turtle Soup when price sweeps below a prior swing low and closes back above.
Plots Clear Visual Signals
Reversal signals appear as 🐢🔻 (Bearish) or 🐢🔺 (Bullish) markers directly on your chart.
Optional labels can be enabled for enhanced journaling and review.
Real-Time Alerts
Receive alert notifications when a Turtle Soup setup is detected — ideal for scalpers or intraday traders watching for reversals around liquidity pools.
⚙️ Customization Options:
Set the swing lookback sensitivity (default: 5)
Enable or disable labels
Choose label font size
Customize colors for bullish and bearish signals
💡 How to Use:
Deploy on intraday timeframes (e.g. 5m–15m) for high-resolution liquidity analysis.
Watch for signals at key highs/lows, session extremes, or zones where liquidity is likely resting.
Combine with tools like FVGs, Order Blocks, and OTE zones for layered confirmation.
🔗 Combine With These Tools for a Complete SMC Edge:
✅ First FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector
✅ ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + OB + Fibonacci OTE Levels
✅ Liquidity Levels — Smart Swing Lows
Together, these tools form a high-precision Smart Money toolkit — helping traders map, anticipate, and act on institutional-level liquidity events with clarity and confidence.
ICT Turtle Soup (Liquidity Reversal)ICT Turtle Soup — Liquidity Reversal Detection
Classic Liquidity Trap Reversal Strategy for Smart Money Traders
This indicator implements the ICT Turtle Soup concept — a classic liquidity-based reversal pattern — which occurs when price runs above or below a recent swing level to grab liquidity, then sharply reverses. This pattern is commonly used in Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Inner Circle Trader (ICT) strategies to anticipate false breakouts and high-probability reversals.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Identifies Swing Highs & Lows
Detects recent swing highs and lows using a customizable lookback period.
Tracks Liquidity Grabs
A bearish Turtle Soup setup is triggered when price breaks above a recent swing high but closes back below it.
A bullish Turtle Soup setup is triggered when price breaks below a recent swing low but closes back above it.
These conditions often signal liquidity traps, where price sweeps resting orders before reversing.
Plots Signals Directly on the Chart
Turtle Soup setups are marked with 🐢🔻 (bearish) and 🐢🔺 (bullish) labels.
Optional full-text labels can also be displayed for clarity and journaling.
Includes Alert Conditions
Alerts can be enabled to notify you of bullish or bearish Turtle Soup reversals in real-time.
⚙️ Customization Features:
Adjustable swing lookback period
Enable/disable Turtle Soup labels
Set label font size
Choose your preferred bullish/bearish signal colors
💡 How to Use:
Add this script to your chart (ideally on intraday timeframes such as 5m–15m).
Wait for a Turtle Soup signal near a key swing high/low or liquidity zone.
Combine with other confirmation tools (e.g., FVGs, Order Blocks, OTE) for stronger setups.
Use alerts to stay ahead of fast-moving reversals.
🧠 Why It Works:
Turtle Soup setups are rooted in liquidity theory — they exploit the market’s tendency to sweep obvious swing levels before reversing. These moves often trap retail traders and mark the beginning of Smart Money entries.
🔗 Best Used With:
Maximize the edge by combining this with other SMC tools:
✅ First FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector
✅ ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + OB + Fibonacci OTE Levels
✅ Liquidity Levels — Smart Swing Lows
Together, they create a complete ecosystem for identifying, confirming, and executing liquidity-driven trade setups with precision.
Nef33 Forex & Crypto Trading Signals PRO
1. Understanding the Indicator's Context
The indicator generates signals based on confluence (trend, volume, key zones, etc.), but it does not include predefined SL or TP levels. To establish them, we must:
Use dynamic or static support/resistance levels already present in the script.
Incorporate volatility (such as ATR) to adjust the levels based on market conditions.
Define a risk/reward ratio (e.g., 1:2).
2. Options for Determining SL and TP
Below, I provide several ideas based on the tools available in the script:
Stop Loss (SL)
The SL should protect you from adverse movements. You can base it on:
ATR (Volatility): Use the smoothed ATR (atr_smooth) multiplied by a factor (e.g., 1.5 or 2) to set a dynamic SL.
Buy: SL = Entry Price - (atr_smooth * atr_mult).
Sell: SL = Entry Price + (atr_smooth * atr_mult).
Key Zones: Place the SL below a support (for buys) or above a resistance (for sells), using Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, or Liquidity Zones.
Buy: SL below the nearest ob_lows or fvg_lows.
Sell: SL above the nearest ob_highs or fvg_highs.
VWAP: Use the daily VWAP (vwap_day) as a critical level.
Buy: SL below vwap_day.
Sell: SL above vwap_day.
Take Profit (TP)
The TP should maximize profits. You can base it on:
Risk/Reward Ratio: Multiply the SL distance by a factor (e.g., 2 or 3).
Buy: TP = Entry Price + (SL Distance * 2).
Sell: TP = Entry Price - (SL Distance * 2).
Key Zones: Target the next resistance (for buys) or support (for sells).
Buy: TP at the next ob_highs, fvg_highs, or liq_zone_high.
Sell: TP at the next ob_lows, fvg_lows, or liq_zone_low.
Ichimoku: Use the cloud levels (Senkou Span A/B) as targets.
Buy: TP at senkou_span_a or senkou_span_b (whichever is higher).
Sell: TP at senkou_span_a or senkou_span_b (whichever is lower).
3. Practical Implementation
Since the script does not automatically draw SL/TP, you can:
Calculate them manually: Observe the chart and use the levels mentioned.
Modify the code: Add SL/TP as labels (label.new) at the moment of the signal.
Here’s an example of how to modify the code to display SL and TP based on ATR with a 1:2 risk/reward ratio:
Modified Code (Signals Section)
Find the lines where the signals (trade_buy and trade_sell) are generated and add the following:
pinescript
// Calculate SL and TP based on ATR
atr_sl_mult = 1.5 // Multiplier for SL
atr_tp_mult = 3.0 // Multiplier for TP (1:2 ratio)
sl_distance = atr_smooth * atr_sl_mult
tp_distance = atr_smooth * atr_tp_mult
if trade_buy
entry_price = close
sl_price = entry_price - sl_distance
tp_price = entry_price + tp_distance
label.new(bar_index, low, "Buy: " + str.tostring(math.round(bull_conditions, 1)), color=color.green, textcolor=color.white, style=label.style_label_up, size=size.tiny)
label.new(bar_index, sl_price, "SL: " + str.tostring(math.round(sl_price, 2)), color=color.red, textcolor=color.white, style=label.style_label_down, size=size.tiny)
label.new(bar_index, tp_price, "TP: " + str.tostring(math.round(tp_price, 2)), color=color.blue, textcolor=color.white, style=label.style_label_up, size=size.tiny)
if trade_sell
entry_price = close
sl_price = entry_price + sl_distance
tp_price = entry_price - tp_distance
label.new(bar_index, high, "Sell: " + str.tostring(math.round(bear_conditions, 1)), color=color.red, textcolor=color.white, style=label.style_label_down, size=size.tiny)
label.new(bar_index, sl_price, "SL: " + str.tostring(math.round(sl_price, 2)), color=color.red, textcolor=color.white, style=label.style_label_up, size=size.tiny)
label.new(bar_index, tp_price, "TP: " + str.tostring(math.round(tp_price, 2)), color=color.blue, textcolor=color.white, style=label.style_label_down, size=size.tiny)
Code Explanation
SL: Calculated by subtracting/adding sl_distance to the entry price (close) depending on whether it’s a buy or sell.
TP: Calculated with a double distance (tp_distance) for a 1:2 risk/reward ratio.
Visualization: Labels are added to the chart to display SL (red) and TP (blue).
4. Practical Strategy Without Modifying the Code
If you don’t want to modify the script, follow these steps manually:
Entry: Take the trade_buy or trade_sell signal.
SL: Check the smoothed ATR (atr_smooth) on the chart or calculate a fixed level (e.g., 1.5 times the ATR). Also, review nearby key zones (OB, FVG, VWAP).
TP: Define a target based on the next key zone or multiply the SL distance by 2 or 3.
Example:
Buy at 100, ATR = 2.
SL = 100 - (2 * 1.5) = 97.
TP = 100 + (2 * 3) = 106.
5. Recommendations
Test in Demo: Apply this logic in a demo account to adjust the multipliers (atr_sl_mult, atr_tp_mult) based on the market (forex or crypto).
Combine with Zones: If the ATR-based SL is too wide, use the nearest OB or FVG as a reference.
Risk/Reward Ratio: Adjust the TP based on your tolerance (1:1, 1:2, 1:3)
Market DNA: Structure, Volume, Range, and SessionsMarket DNA: Structure, Volume, Range, and Sessions**
The Market DNA indicator combines market structure, volume analysis, trading ranges, and global trading sessions into a single, comprehensive tool for traders. It helps identify key price levels, volume patterns, consolidation phases, and active market periods, enabling informed trading decisions.
Market Structure Detects swing highs and lows using `ta.pivothigh` and `ta.pivotlow`, plotting them as red/green triangles to highlight support/resistance and trend reversals.
- Fractal Volume Zones (FVG): Highlights areas of significant buying/selling pressure by comparing current volume to an average over a lookback period; high-volume zones are marked with a semi-transparent blue background.
- Trading Range: Defines a price channel using the Average True Range (ATR) and a multiplier, creating upper/lower bands to identify consolidation, breakouts, and potential trade levels.
- Market Sessions: Highlights major global trading sessions (Asia, Europe, US) with colored backgrounds (purple, teal, yellow) to indicate liquidity and volatility shifts.
How It Works
- Swing points help analyze trends and reversals.
- FVG confirms price movements with high volume for stronger signals.
- Trading range bands assist in identifying breakout opportunities and setting stops/take-profits.
- Session highlights allow traders to adapt strategies based on regional activity.
Customization
- Adjust `swing_length` for sensitivity in detecting turning points.
- Modify `volume_lookback` to control volume averaging.
- Tune `range_multiplier` for wider/narrower trading bands.
- Enable/disable session highlighting via `session_highlight`.
Use Cases
- Identify trends and key levels using swing points and FVG.
- Spot breakout opportunities with trading range bands.
- Adapt strategies to regional trading sessions for optimal timing.
This all-in-one indicator provides a clear, customizable view of the market, empowering traders to make data-driven decisions across asset classes and timeframes.
LRLR [TakingProphets]LRLR (Low Resistance Liquidity Run) Indicator
This indicator identifies potential liquidity runs in areas of low resistance, based on ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts. It specifically looks for a series of unmitigated swing highs in a downtrend that form without any bearish fair value gaps (FVGs) between them.
What is an LRLR?
- A Low Resistance Liquidity Run occurs when price creates a series of lower highs without any bearish fair value gaps in between
- The absence of bearish FVGs indicates there is no significant resistance in the area
- These formations often become targets for smart money to collect liquidity above the swing highs
How to Use the Indicator:
1. The indicator will draw a diagonal line connecting a series of qualifying swing highs
2. A small "LRLR" label appears to mark the pattern
3. These areas often become targets for future price moves, as they represent zones of accumulated liquidity with minimal resistance
Key Points:
- Minimum of 4 consecutive lower swing highs
- No bearish fair value gaps can exist between these swing highs
- The diagonal line helps visualize the liquidity run formation
- Can be used for trade planning and identifying potential reversal zones
Settings:
- Show Labels: Toggle the "LRLR" label visibility
- LRLR Line Color: Customize the appearance of the diagonal line
Best Practices:
1. Use in conjunction with other ICT concepts and market structure analysis
2. Pay attention to how price reacts when returning to these levels
3. Consider these areas as potential targets for smart money liquidity grabs
4. Most effective when used on higher timeframes (4H and above)
Note: This is an educational tool and should be used as part of a complete trading strategy, not in isolation.
Smart Money Concepts (Advanced)Inspired and initially based on LuxAlgo's Smart Money Concepts Indicator I created a library lib_smc that started to convert every function and return objects. This allowed certain customizations like tracking the current fill level of FVGs or tracking the creation of Order Blocks, by monitoring consecutive bars against the current trend.
This indicator is provided as is, based on, but probably not always be up to date with my lib_smc that I am using for my projects.
WARNING: This indicator shows EXPERIMENTAL Order Blocks that are tracked LIVE. Unlike usual Order Blocks these are not just based on the last confirmed Swing Point (formed 50 bars before) but on consecutive candles opposing an unconfirmed trend. Blocks are confirmed by price movements relative to the unconfirmed block and unconfirmed swing points. This means that some Order Blocks will appear on pullbacks, as well as reversals.
Features
Swing Points (HH / LH / HL / LL), indicating support / resistance zones price might reject off of or want to push through
Market Structure (BOS / ChoCh), indicates confirmation for a continued / changing trend
live Order Blocks (OB), see warning above.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG), optional from higher timeframes
Equal Highs / Lows (EQH/EQL), indicates strong support / resistance zones, especially when the bars forming it have long wicks toward that zone
using my lib_no_delay all moving averages are working from bar 0, so it can be used on charts with limited bars
