Directional Pressure (maybexo)Liquidity Candles, observed in financial markets, display distinctive candlestick patterns that are noteworthy. These candles exhibit intentional price behavior aimed at triggering stop-loss orders and momentarily misleading traders. The pattern typically starts with a price movement against the current trend, activating stop-loss orders and capitalizing on liquidity from traders anticipating the prevailing trend. Subsequently, the price swiftly changes course, breaking and conclusively closing beyond the prior candle's range, often surprising unsuspecting traders.
Characteristics:
1. Liquidity Grab:
- Liquidity Candles initiate with a deliberate move against the existing trend, aimed at triggering stop-loss orders and gathering liquidity from traders who have placed stops in anticipation of the initial trend.
- Notably, the size of the wick in this liquidity grab is significant; a larger wick indicates a more substantial liquidity grab and can strengthen the indication of a potential market reversal.
2. Swift Reversal and Breakout:
- Following the liquidity grab, the price swiftly changes direction, breaking and conclusively closing above or below the previous candle's range.
3. Institutional Behavior:
- These candles are often linked to institutional trading behavior, suggesting potential involvement by significant market participants due to their distinct and deliberate price action.
// Diamonds
1. RSI Diamonds:
The RSI Diamonds represent RSI entering either overbought or oversold levels.
These Diamonds serve as an early indication for "Spooky Diamonds" as Spooky Diamonds can only form in these conditions
2. Spooky Diamonds:
The Spooky Diamonds highlight specific candle conditions, aiding in the identification of bullish or bearish momentum in the market while considering the RSI status.
Bullish Candle Momentum: The candle size is greater than the previous candle multiplied by a user-defined factor (filterMultiplier) and the closing price is higher than the opening price. This can suggest bullish momentum.
Bearish Candle Momentum: The candle size is greater than the previous candle multiplied by the filterMultiplier, and the closing price is lower than the opening price. This can suggest bearish momentum.
Important Notes:
The Candles + Diamonds should not be used in isolation as buy or sell signals but rather as additional information for your trading strategy.
The goal of this indicator is to provide a visual representation of RSI data and potential momentum during overbought or oversold conditions.
By utilizing the diamonds and candles, you can easily identify RSI levels and their interaction with candles, aiding in decision-making within your trading strategy.
Disclaimer: Always consider your risk tolerance and conduct thorough analysis before making any trading decisions.

Liquidity Levels [LuxAlgo]The Peak Activity Levels indicator displays support and resistance levels from prices accompanied by significant volume. The indicator includes a histogram returning the frequency of closing prices falling between two parallel levels, each bin shows the number of bullish candles within the levels.
1. Settings
Length: Lookback for the detection of volume peaks.
Number Of Levels: Determines the number of levels to display.
Levels Color Mode: Determines how the levels should be colored. "Relative" will color the levels based on their location relative to the current price. "Random" will apply a random color to each level. "Fixed" will use a single color for each level.
Levels Style: Style of the displayed levels. Styles include solid, dashed, and dotted.
1.1 Histogram
Show Histogram: Determines whether to display the histogram or not.
Histogram Window: Lookback period of the histogram calculation.
Bins Colors: Control the color of the histogram bins.
2. Usage
The indicator can be used to display ready-to-use support and resistance. These are constructed from peaks in volume. When a peak occurs, we take the price where this peak occurred and use it as the value for our level.
If one of the levels was previously tested, we can hypothesize that the level might be used as support/resistance in the future. Additional analysis using volume can be done in order to confirm a potential bounce.
The histogram can return various information to the user. It can show if the price stayed within two levels for a long time and if the price within two levels was mostly made of bullish or bearish candles.
In the chart above, we can see that over the most recent 200 bars (determined by Histogram Window) 68 closing prices fall between levels A and B, with 27 bars being bullish.
Additionally, the width of a bin and its length can sometimes give information about the volatility of a specific price variation. If a bin is very wide but short (a low number of closing prices fallen within the levels) then we can conclude a most of the movement was done on a short amount of time.
Liquidity_Detection_Fx_Shepherd [ALLDYN]### Breakdown of the Basic "Fx_Shepherd_Liquidity" Script
#### 1. **Purpose of the Script:**
This basic version of the "Fx_Shepherd_Liquidity" script is designed to help traders detect potential liquidity grabs by analyzing price movements and candle patterns in the market. It works by identifying large price deviations and compares multiple candles to detect liquidity sweeps either to the upside or downside.
#### 2. **How it Works:**
- **User Inputs:**
- `Maru_rate`: This is a user-defined percentage that helps determine how much the price movement of a candle needs to deviate from the candle's range (high - low) to be considered a liquidity grab.
- `Compare`: Another percentage input used to compare the relative size of three candles versus one candle.
- `MA`: This represents the "Big candle period," or the moving average period for big candles.
- `urgent_rate`: This is used to determine urgency by comparing the current candle's range to an SMA of previous candles.
- **Key Calculation Steps:**
- **Candle Deviation (Up and Down):**
- `Up` measures how much the current candle closes above its open (bullish deviation).
- `Down` measures how much the current candle closes below its open (bearish deviation).
- **Average Deviations:**
- `UP_Sum` and `Do_Sum` calculate the SMA of Up and Down deviations, respectively, over the defined period (MA). These averages help detect when a candle deviates significantly from the norm.
- **Urgency Detection:**
- `Check_Up_Urgent` and `Check_Dow_Urgent` are conditions that check if the current candle’s high-low range exceeds the defined urgent rate. This signals whether the price movement is "urgent" or significant.
- **Liquidity Detection:**
- **For Upward Liquidity:**
- The script checks if the candle is bullish (`close > open`) and whether the price deviation (`close - open`) meets or exceeds the user-defined `Maru_rate`.
- The script then compares the size of the previous three candles (`high - low`) with a single candle (`Compare`) to confirm a liquidity grab.
- Finally, it looks for continuous upward candle patterns to confirm the strength of the move.
- **For Downward Liquidity:**
- Similar logic applies, but for bearish candles. It checks whether the candle is bearish (`close < open`) and applies the same size comparisons to detect downward liquidity grabs.
- **Candle Highlighting:**
- If the conditions for a liquidity grab are met (both urgency and size), the script changes the bar color to green for upward liquidity and yellow for downward liquidity. These colored bars visually highlight the candles that meet the liquidity grab conditions.
- The script also colors up to three consecutive candles if they meet the liquidity grab conditions (offset = -1, -2).
#### 3. **Benefits of Using This Script:**
- **Liquidity Grab Detection:**
This script helps detect potential liquidity grabs, which occur when large players in the market push the price in a direction to trigger stop-losses or lure retail traders into a position before reversing the price direction. By detecting these movements, traders can avoid being trapped and potentially take advantage of the upcoming reversal.
- **Simple & Lightweight:**
The script uses basic inputs and calculations to detect liquidity grabs, making it easy to use and understand. It's less complex than the advanced version, which makes it suitable for traders who prefer simplicity or are new to liquidity grab detection.
- **Visual Clarity:**
The script uses color changes (green for upward grabs and yellow for downward grabs) to help traders easily spot potential liquidity grab areas on the chart. These visual cues make it more straightforward to interpret.
#### 4. **When to Use This Basic Version:**
- **Quick Liquidity Detection:** This script is ideal for traders who need a quick way to detect potential liquidity grabs without the complexity of managing dynamic parameters or volume confirmation.
- **Simplified Trading Strategies:** If your trading strategy doesn’t rely heavily on volume or multi-timeframe liquidity grab adjustments, this script can work well for basic setups where price action is the primary indicator.
- **Faster Execution:** Since this version doesn’t require dynamic adjustments or volume confirmation, it executes faster, making it suitable for traders who need lightweight tools to stay on top of fast-moving markets.
### Conclusion:
The basic version of the **Fx_Shepherd_Liquidity** script offers a simplified tool for detecting potential liquidity grabs. Its straightforward design, adjustable Maru rate, and visual bar color changes make it easy to integrate into any trading strategy focused on price action. While it lacks the advanced features of the premium version, it serves as a solid, lightweight solution for traders who prefer simplicity over complexity.
Bitcoin Power Law Global Liqudity Model by G. SantostasiIn recent studies, we've observed a notable correlation between Bitcoin's price and global liquidity metrics. This relationship reveals significant insights into Bitcoin's price movements and offers a new perspective on using macroeconomic indicators to understand and predict Bitcoin's market trends.
Our analysis shows that Bitcoin's price exhibits periodic bubbles, which seem closely associated with oscillations in global liquidity. Notably, the overall price path of Bitcoin appears to be a complex function of global liquidity. This relationship is not as simple as the Bitcoin Power Law in time that can be described with a simple equation, Price ∼ time⁶.
Instead, we have developed a polynomial model to describe this complex relationship between liquidity and Bitcoin price. With a 4-degree polynomial (with 5 different parameters needed to fit the data), we can get a decent fit to the data.
The fit is obtained using 500 data points by polynomial regression. The vector coefficients of the polynomial are obtained such that the sum of squared error between the observations and theoretical polynomial model is minimized.
This model needs to be taken with a grain of salt given the warning by famous mathematician Von Neumann: "With four parameters I can fit an elephant, and with five I can make him wiggle his trunk." discussing a model created by Italian Physicist Fermi. By this he meant that the Fermi simulations relied on too many input parameters, presupposing an overfitting phenomenon.
We can still gain some insights into the relationship between Global Liquidity and the price evolution of Bitcoin using this complex model.
When the price of Bitcoin is plotted against our global liquidity index, we observe a polynomial relationship. This model allows us to see when Bitcoin's price deviates significantly from the predicted value based on global liquidity:
Above the Model: When Bitcoin's price is above the polynomial fit, it indicates a potential lack of sufficient liquidity to support the current price level, suggesting a likely correction.
Below the Model: Conversely, when the price is below the fit, it implies that liquidity might be higher than what is reflected in the price, indicating potential upward movement.
Our global liquidity index comprises several key macroeconomic metrics from major financial institutions worldwide. Here are some of the major components:
RRP (Reverse Repurchase Agreements): This metric indicates the level of liquidity in the financial system through temporary sales of securities with an agreement to repurchase them.
FED (Federal Reserve System): Represents the balance sheet of the US central bank, reflecting its monetary policy actions.
TGA (Treasury General Account): Reflects the US Treasury’s cash balance, impacting the liquidity in the banking system.
PBC (People's Bank of China): Shows the monetary policy actions and liquidity management by China’s central bank.
ECB (European Central Bank): Represents the balance sheet and liquidity management actions of the Eurozone's central bank.
BOJ (Bank of Japan): Reflects Japan's central bank's monetary policy and liquidity measures.
Other Central Banks: Includes metrics from various other central banks like the Bank of England, Bank of Canada, Reserve Bank of Australia, etc.
M2 Money Supply: This includes money supply metrics from various countries like the USA, Europe, China, Japan, and other significant economies.
These components collectively provide a comprehensive view of global liquidity, which is crucial for understanding its impact on Bitcoin's price.
Using the polynomial model and the author's Bitcoin power law model we can create 2 oscillators, one that shows deviations from the trend (normalized to the price to make the peaks more uniform) and the other showing deviations of the polynomial liquidity model from the power law trend.
The oscillators show the difference between the price and the power law model relative to the price, Orange Line. The Blue Line is instead the difference between the Global Liquidity Model of the price and the power law model relative to the model itself. The two oscillators can be overlayed to show their differences and similarities.
Analysis: In addition to similar observations from the discussion above we can see that most Bitcoin bottoms are not directly associated with bottoms in the liquidity model indicating a different mechanism at play that determines Bitcoin bottoms (probably due to miners' capitulation).
Using the new force_overlay function we plot the polynomial liquidity model directly over the Bitcoin price chart while we display the 2 oscillators in a separate panel.
RSI Analysis with Statistical Summary Scientific Analysis of the Script "RSI Analysis with Statistical Summary"
Introduction
I observed that there are outliers in the price movement liquidity, and I wanted to understand the RSI value at those points and whether there are any notable patterns. I aimed to analyze this statistically, and this script is the result.
Explanation of Key Terms
1. Outliers in Price Movement Liquidity: An outlier is a data point that significantly deviates from other values. In this context, an outlier refers to an unusually high or low liquidity of price movement, which is the ratio of trading volume to the price difference between the open and close prices. These outliers can signal important market changes or unusual trading activities.
2. RSI (Relative Strength Index): The RSI is a technical indicator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It ranges from 0 to 100 and helps identify overbought or oversold conditions of a trading instrument. An RSI value above 70 indicates an overbought condition, while a value below 30 suggests an oversold condition.
3. Mean: The mean is a measure of the average of a dataset. It is calculated by dividing the sum of all values by the number of values. In this script, the mean of the RSI values is calculated to provide a central tendency of the RSI distribution.
4. Standard Deviation (stdev): The standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion or variation of a dataset. It shows how much the values deviate from the mean. A high standard deviation indicates that the values are widely spread, while a low standard deviation indicates that the values are close to the mean.
5. 68% Confidence Interval: A confidence interval indicates the range within which a certain percentage of values of a dataset lies. The 68% confidence interval corresponds to a range of plus/minus one standard deviation around the mean. It indicates that about 68% of the data points lie within this range, providing insight into the distribution of values.
Overview
This Pine Script™, written in Pine version 5, is designed to analyze the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of a stock or other trading instrument and create statistical summaries of the distribution of RSI values. The script identifies outliers in price movement liquidity and uses this information to calculate the frequency of RSI values. At the end, it displays a statistical summary in the form of a table.
Structure and Functionality of the Script
1. Input Parameters
- `rsi_len`: An integer input parameter that defines the length of the RSI (default: 14).
- `outlierThreshold`: An integer input parameter that defines the length of the outlier threshold (default: 10).
2. Calculating Price Movement Liquidity
- `priceMovementLiquidity`: The volume is divided by the absolute difference between the close and open prices to calculate the liquidity of the price movement.
3. Determining the Boundary for Liquidity and Identifying Outliers
- `liquidityBoundary`: The boundary is calculated using the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the price movement liquidity and its standard deviation.
- `outlier`: A boolean value that indicates whether the price movement liquidity exceeds the set boundary.
4. Calculating the RSI
- `rsi`: The RSI is calculated with a period length of 14, using various moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA) depending on the settings.
5. Storing and Limiting RSI Values
- An array `rsiFrequency` stores the frequency of RSI values from 0 to 100.
- The function `f_limit_rsi` limits the RSI values between 0 and 100.
6. Updating RSI Frequency on Outlier Occurrence
- On an outlier occurrence, the limited and rounded RSI value is updated in the `rsiFrequency` array.
7. Statistical Summary
- Various variables (`mostFrequentRsi`, `leastFrequentRsi`, `maxCount`, `minCount`, `sum`, `sumSq`, `count`, `upper_interval`, `lower_interval`) are initialized to perform statistical analysis.
- At the last bar (`bar_index == last_bar_index`), a loop is run to determine the most and least frequent RSI values and their frequencies. Sum and sum of squares of RSI values are also updated for calculating mean and standard deviation.
- The mean (`mean`) and standard deviation (`stddev`) are calculated. Additionally, a 68% confidence interval is determined.
8. Creating a Table for Result Display
- A table `resultsTable` is created and filled with the results of the statistical analysis. The table includes the most and least frequent RSI values, the standard deviation, and the 68% confidence interval.
9. Graphical Representation
- The script draws horizontal lines and fills to indicate overbought and oversold regions of the RSI.
Interpretation of the Results
The script provides a detailed analysis of RSI values based on specific liquidity outliers. By calculating the most and least frequent RSI values, standard deviation, and confidence interval, it offers a comprehensive statistical summary that can help traders identify patterns and anomalies in the RSI. This can be particularly useful for identifying overbought or oversold conditions of a trading instrument and making informed trading decisions.
Critical Evaluation
1. Robustness of Outlier Identification: The method of identifying outliers is solely based on the liquidity of price movement. It would be interesting to examine whether other methods or additional criteria for outlier identification would lead to similar or improved results.
2. Flexibility of RSI Settings: The ability to select various moving averages and period lengths for the RSI enhances the adaptability of the script, allowing users to tailor it to their specific trading strategies.
3. Visualization of Results: While the tabular representation is useful, additional graphical visualizations, such as histograms of RSI distribution, could further facilitate the interpretation of the results.
In conclusion, this script provides a solid foundation for analyzing RSI values by considering liquidity outliers and enables detailed statistical evaluation that can be beneficial for various trading strategies.

By leveraging smart money concepts and sophisticated pattern detection, it helps you spot key liquidity sweeps, reversal zones, and high-probability setups, enabling more precise entries, exits, and risk management tailored to market structure.
LTF PD Array
LTF PD Arrays are crucial to the Unicorn Model and must align with the Zigzag Breaker for the setup to be considered valid.
HTF PD Array
Higher-Timeframe PD Arrays deliver essential macro context, serving to validate both the direction and momentum of potential reversals.
Timeframe Alignment
Timeframe alignment is a fundamental element of the Unicorn trading model. By integrating multi-timeframe context, the model effectively identifies high-probability models.
Killzone Filters
Filter Unicorn Models according to key market sessions—Asia, London, New York AM, New York Launch, and New York PM—to target periods of high liquidity. This approach improves the accuracy and timing of trade setups by capturing moments when smart money is most active.
Macros
The Unicorn Model uses ICT Macro Times to identify key trading periods when institutional activity is most intense. By syncing setups with these critical windows, the model improves accuracy and provides better context for entries, risk management, and potential reversals.
Gain a trading advantage with the Unicorn Model — your essential tool for clearer insights, smarter decision-making, and more confident trade execution.

SOFR Spread (proxy: FEDFUNDS - US03MY)📊 SOFR Spread (Proxy: FEDFUNDS - US03MY) – Monitoring USD Money Market Liquidity
In 2008, the spread exhibits a sharp vertical spike, signaling a severe liquidity dislocation: investors rushed into short-term U.S. Treasuries, pushing their yields down dramatically, while the FEDFUNDS rate remained relatively high.
This behavior indicates extreme systemic stress in the interbank lending market, preceding massive Federal Reserve interventions such as rate cuts, emergency liquidity operations, and the launch of quantitative easing (QE).
Description:
This indicator plots the spread between the Effective Federal Funds Rate (FEDFUNDS) and the 3-Month US Treasury Bill yield (US03MY), used here as a proxy for the SOFR spread.
It serves as a simple yet powerful tool to detect liquidity dislocations and stress signals in the US short-term funding markets.
Interpretation:
🔴 Spread > 0.20% → Possible liquidity stress: elevated repo rates, cash shortage, interbank distrust.
🟡 Spread ≈ 0% → Normal market conditions, balanced liquidity.
🟢 Spread < 0% → Excess liquidity: strong demand for T-Bills, “flight to safety”, or distortion due to expansionary monetary policy.
Ideal for:
Monitoring Fed policy impact
Anticipating market-wide liquidity squeezes
Correlation with DXY, SPX, VIX, MOVE Index, and risk sentiment
🧠 Note: As SOFR is not directly available on TradingView, FEDFUNDS is used as a reliable proxy, closely tracking the same trends in most macro conditions.

Smart Money Concepts by WeloTradesThe "Smart Money Concepts by WeloTrades" indicator is designed to offer traders a comprehensive tool that integrates multiple advanced features to aid in market analysis. By combining order blocks, liquidity levels, fair value gaps, trendlines, and market structure analysis, the indicator provides a holistic approach to understanding market dynamics and making informed trading decisions.
Components and Their Integration:
Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks Detection
Functionality: Order blocks represent areas where significant buying or selling occurred, creating potential support or resistance zones. Breaker blocks signal potential reversals.
Integration: By detecting and visualizing these blocks, the indicator helps traders identify key levels where price might react, aiding in entry and exit decisions. The customizable settings allow traders to adjust the visibility and parameters to suit their specific trading strategy.
Liquidity Levels Analysis
Functionality: Liquidity levels indicate zones where significant price movements can occur due to the presence of large orders. These are areas where smart money might be executing trades.
Integration: By tracking these high-probability liquidity areas, traders can anticipate potential price movements. Customizable display limits and mitigation strategies ensure that the information is tailored to the trader’s needs, providing precise and actionable insights.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Functionality: Fair value gaps highlight areas where there is an imbalance between buyers and sellers. These gaps often represent potential trading opportunities.
Integration: The ability to identify and analyze FVGs helps traders spot potential entries based on market inefficiencies. The touch and break detection functionalities provide further refinement, enhancing the precision of trading signals.
Trendlines
Functionality: Trendlines help in identifying the direction of the market and potential reversal points. The additional trendline adds a layer of confirmation for breaks or retests.
Integration: Automatically drawn trendlines assist traders in visualizing market trends and making decisions about potential entries and exits. The additional trendline for stronger confirmation reduces the risk of false signals, providing more reliable trading opportunities.
Market Structure Analysis
Functionality: Understanding market structure is crucial for identifying key support and resistance levels and overall market dynamics. This component displays internal, external, and composite market structures.
Integration: By automatically highlighting shifts in market structure, the indicator helps traders recognize important levels and potential changes in market direction. This analysis is critical for strategic planning and execution in trading.
Customizable Alerts
Functionality: Alerts ensure that traders do not miss significant market events, such as the formation or breach of order blocks, liquidity levels, and trendline interactions.
Integration: Customizable alerts enhance the user experience by providing timely notifications of key events. This feature ensures that traders can act quickly and efficiently, leveraging the insights provided by the indicator.
Interactive Visualization
Functionality: Customizable visual aspects of the indicator allow traders to tailor the display to their preferences and trading style.
Integration: This feature enhances user engagement and usability, making it easier for traders to interpret the data and make informed decisions. Personalization options like colors, styles, and display formats improve the overall effectiveness of the indicator.
How Components Work Together
Comprehensive Market Analysis
Each component of the indicator addresses a different aspect of market analysis. Order blocks and liquidity levels highlight potential support and resistance zones, while fair value gaps and trendlines provide additional context for potential entries and exits. Market structure analysis ties everything together by offering a broad view of market dynamics.
Synergistic Insights
The integration of multiple features allows for cross-validation of trading signals. For instance, an order block coinciding with a high-probability liquidity level and a fair value gap can provide a stronger signal than any of these features alone. This synergy enhances the reliability of the insights and trading signals generated by the indicator.
Enhanced Decision Making
By combining these advanced features into a single tool, traders are equipped with a powerful resource for making informed decisions. The customizable alerts and interactive visualization further support this by ensuring that traders can act quickly on the insights provided.

Fair Value Gap [by Oberlunar]Fair Value Gap
This indicator is designed to identify and display Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on the price chart. Fair Value Gaps are areas between candles where the price lacks continuity, leaving a "gap" that can serve as a reference point for price retracements. These zones are often considered important by traders as they represent market imbalances that tend to be "mitigated" (i.e., filled or tested) over time.
Purpose of Publication
This indicator addresses a common gap in FVG indicators. Most existing FVG indicators do not visually distinguish between mitigated (touched) FVGs and those that remain intact. With this indicator:
Mitigated FVGs are clearly displayed with distinct colors, allowing traders to identify which zones have been partially or fully filled by the price.
Unmitigated FVGs remain prominent, representing potential points of interest.
Key Features
Identification of Fair Value Gaps:
A Bullish FVG (upward gap) forms when the high of the three previous candles (candle -3) is lower than the low of the next candle (candle -1).
A Bearish FVG (downward gap) forms when the low of the three previous candles (candle -3) is higher than the high of the next candle (candle -1).
Dynamic Coloring:
Unmitigated FVGs are highlighted with specific colors: green for Bullish and red for Bearish gaps.
When an FVG is "touched" by the price (i.e., mitigated), the color changes:
Yellow-green for mitigated Bullish FVGs.
Purple for mitigated Bearish FVGs.
Handling Mitigated FVGs:
When an FVG is touched by the price, it is visually updated with a different color.
An option can be enabled to "shrink" the mitigated zone, adjusting the box to reflect the remaining untested portion of the gap.
Customization:
Configure the maximum number of FVGs to display on the chart.
Set specific colors for mitigated and unmitigated FVGs.
Choose whether to automatically shrink mitigated zones.
How to Identify Support and Resistance Levels
Support:
Bullish FVGs represent potential support levels, as they indicate areas where the price might return to seek liquidity or fill the imbalance.
An FVG that is repeatedly touched without being fully filled becomes a significant support zone.
Resistance:
Bearish FVGs represent potential resistance levels, indicating zones where the price might stall or reverse direction.
Why a Repeatedly Mitigated FVG is Significant
When an FVG is touched or mitigated multiple times, it means the market recognizes that area as significant. This can happen for several reasons:
Accumulation or Distribution: Institutional traders may use these zones to accumulate or distribute positions without causing excessive market movement.
Presence of Liquidity: FVGs often represent areas with pending orders (stop-losses, limit orders), and the price revisits these zones to seek liquidity.
Market Equilibrium: When an FVG is repeatedly filled, it indicates the market's attempt to balance a demand-supply imbalance. This makes the zone an important level to monitor for potential breakouts or reversals.
Fractal Model [Pro+] (TTrades)Introduction:
Crafted with TTrades, the Fractal Model empowers traders with a refined approach to Algorithmic Price Delivery. Specifically designed for those aiming to capitalize on expansive moves, this model anticipates momentum shifts, swing formations, orderflow continuations, as well as helping analysts highlight key areas to anticipate price deliveries.
Description:
The Fractal Model° is rooted in the cyclical nature of price movements, where price alternates between large and small ranges. Expansion occurs when price moves consistently in one direction with momentum. By combining higher Timeframe closures with the confirmation of the change in state of delivery (CISD) on the lower Timeframe, the model reveals moments when expansion is poised to occur.
Thanks to TTrades' extensive research and years of studying these price behaviors, the Fractal Model° is a powerful, adaptive tool that seamlessly adjusts to any asset, market condition, or Timeframe, translating complex price action insights into an intuitive and responsive system.
The TTrades Fractal Model remains stable and non-repainting, offering traders reliable, unchanged levels within the given Time period. This tool is meticulously designed to support analysts focus on price action and dynamically adapt with each new Time period.
Key Features:
Custom History: Control the depth of your historical view by selecting the number of previous setups you’d like to analyze on your chart, from the current setup only (0) to a history of up to 40 setups. This feature allows you to tailor the chart to your specific charting style, whether you prefer to see past setups or the current view only.
Fractal Timeframe Pairings: This indicator enables users to observe and analyze lower Timeframe (LTF) movements within the structure of a higher Timeframe (HTF) candle. By examining LTF price action inside each HTF candle, analysts can gain insight into micro trends, structure shifts, and key entry points that may not be visible on the higher Timeframe alone. This approach provides a layered perspective, allowing analysts to closely monitoring how the LTF movements unfold within the overarching HTF context.
For a more dynamic and hands-off user experience, the Automatic feature autonomously adjusts the higher Timeframe pairing based the current chart Timeframe, ensuring accurate alignment with the Fractal Model, according to TTrades and his studies.
Bias Selection: This feature allows analysts complete control over bias and setup detection, allowing one to view bullish or bearish formations exclusively, or opt for a neutral bias to monitor both directions. Easily toggle the bias filter on Fractal Model to align with your higher Timeframe market draw.
Indicator Notice for Timeframe Pairing Limitations: This indicator supports Timeframe pairings (e.g., 5m-1H, 15m-4H). If you select a timeframe, grater than the lower Timeframe (LTF) view (e.g., viewing a 15m chart when 5m-1H is enabled), the indicator will display an warning message within the table. Although the higher Timeframe (HTF) candle plotting will remain visible, note that the LTF’s CISD and associated projections will not render in this view.
Customizable Time Filters: Further synchronize Time and price studies by selecting up to three custom Time windows, filtering model formations that fall outside these specified ranges. This provides clarity and focus on relevant price action signatures within defined Time windows, at the discretion of the analyst.
Higher Time Frame Candles (PO3): The Fractal Model° integrates the HTF Power of Three framework, enabling traders to visualize and spot critical turning points live. By incorporating this structure, traders can observe key phases of price delivery and market transitions on lower Timeframes, while monitoring higher Timeframe candle development.
Info Table: Display a customizable information table that includes key details such as timeframe pairing, Time until the next higher Timeframe candle close, analyst bias, and applied Time filter preferences. Options for size, location, and border give analysts full control over the table’s appearance on the chart.
TTrades Framework Customization :
TTFM Lables (C2/C3/C4): When a setup remains valid, the label will display in gray, signifying stable conditions for the setup.
If the setup fails—defined by price returning to the initial high or low without forming a higher Timeframes swing point—the indicator will stop plotting projections, Equilibrium (EQ), Liquidity Sweep, and the T-spot. In this case, the labels for key points (C2, C3, C4) will remain on the chart but turn red, clearly indicating the failure of the setup.
If the setup does not fail within the next higher Timeframes candle, which defines the setup’s formation, the label will turn orange. This orange color signals potential consolidation, or slowdown, suggesting that the market may enter a range or pause in trend movement within the setup.
Candle 1 Liquidity: Highlight important liquidity levels at each swing point with horizontal rays, marking sweeps of liquidity and potential reversals.
Change in State of Delivery (CISD): Mark the series of candles making up significant highs or lows. A close beyond the opening price signals a change from bullish to bearish or vice versa, confirming a trend reversal.
Candle Equilibrium: Indicates 50% levels of higher time frame ranges, displaying discount and premium zones that provide additional context for potential entries and exits.
T-Spot Identification: The T-Spot marks anticipated points of the higher Timeframe candles where price wicks are expected to form, based on TTrades’ refined analysis and methodology. This level is invaluable for identifying high-probability reversal or continuation points within lower Timeframes, remaining aligned with the higher Timeframe narrative.
Projections: Leverage projected levels based on the shifts in delivery as per TTrades’ analysis. These user-defined levels serve as future points of interest for price to redeliver, rebalance, and exhaust. Analysts can add, or remove, desired projection levels – default projections being .
Formation Liquidity: Identify previous candles' highs and lows as critical liquidity points appertaining to the current developing formation. These zones are marked to provide easy visualization of engineered liquidity pools, serving as key reference points for future price action.
Fully Automated Framework: all these components, when put together in the Fractal Model° , yield TTrades' fully automated system. Each component is customizable to the analyst's liking to match their unique visual preferences and model Timeframes.
Usage Guidance:
Add Fractal Model (TTrades) to your TradingView chart.
Select your preferred Time pairings, model history, Time filers.
Automate your analysis process with Fractal Model (TTrades) and leverage it into your existing strategies to fine-tune your view through TTrades' lens.

Son Model ICT [TradingFinder] HTF DOL H1 + Sweep M15 + FVG M1🔵 Introduction
The ICT Son Model setup is a precise trading strategy based on market structure and liquidity, implemented across multiple timeframes. This setup first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe to validate the trend. After confirmation, the price forms a new swing in the 5-minute timeframe, absorbing liquidity.
Once this level is broken, traders typically drop to the 30-second (30s) timeframe and enter trades based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). However, since access to the 30-second timeframe is not available to most traders, we take the entry signal directly from the 5-minute timeframe, using the same liquidity zones and confirmed breakouts to execute trades. This approach simplifies execution and makes the strategy accessible to all traders.
This model operates in two setups :
Bullish ICT Son Model and Bearish ICT Son Model. In the bullish setup, liquidity is first accumulated at the lows of the 1-hour timeframe, and after confirming a market structure shift, a long position is initiated. Conversely, in the bearish setup, liquidity is first drawn from higher levels, and upon confirmation of a bearish trend, a short position is executed.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The ICT Son Model setup is designed around liquidity analysis and market structure shifts and can be applied in both bullish and bearish market conditions. The strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe.
After this shift, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity. When this level is broken in the 5-minute timeframe, the trader enters based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). While the ideal entry is in the 30-second (30s) timeframe, due to accessibility constraints, we take entry signals directly from the 5-minute timeframe.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In the Bullish ICT Son Model, the 1-hour timeframe first identifies liquidity at the market lows, where price sweeps this level to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bullish shift.
After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a higher level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a long position, placing the stop-loss below the FVG.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In the Bearish ICT Son Model, liquidity at higher market levels is identified in the 1-hour timeframe, where price sweeps these levels to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bearish trend.
After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a lower level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a short position, placing the stop-loss above the FVG.
🔵 Settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar.
MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar.
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Son Model setup is a structured and precise method for trade execution based on liquidity analysis and market structure shifts. This strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour timeframe and then confirms a trend shift using the 5-minute timeframe.
Trade entries are executed based on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), which highlight optimal entry points. By applying this model, traders can leverage existing market liquidity to enter high-probability trades. The bullish setup activates when liquidity is swept from market lows and a market structure shift confirms an upward trend, whereas the bearish setup is used when liquidity is drawn from market highs, confirming a downtrend.
This approach enables traders to identify high-probability trade setups with greater precision compared to many other strategies. Additionally, since access to the 30-second timeframe is limited, the strategy remains fully functional in the 5-minute timeframe, making it more practical and accessible for a wider range of traders.

🔶 USAGE
By default, the indicator displays each feature relevant to the most recent price variations in order to avoid clutter on the chart & to provide a very similar experience to how a user would contruct ICT Concepts by hand.
Users can use the historical mode in the settings to see historical market structure/imbalances. The ICT Concepts indicator has various use cases, below we outline many examples of how a trader could find usage of the features together.
In the above image we can see price took out Sellside liquidity, filled two bearish FVGs, a market structure shift, which then led to a clean retest of a bullish FVG as a clean setup to target the order block above.
Price then fills the OB which creates a breaker level as seen in yellow.
Broken OBs can be useful for a trader using the ICT Concepts indicator as it marks a level where orders have now been filled, indicating a solidified level that has proved itself as an area of liquidity. In the image above we can see a trade setup using a broken bearish OB as a potential entry level.
We can see the New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) above was an optimal level to target considering price may tend to fill / react off of these levels according to ICT.
In the next image above, we have another example of various use cases where the ICT Concepts indicator hypothetically allow traders to find key levels & find optimal entry points using market structure.
In the image above we can see a bearish Market Structure Shift (MSS) is confirmed, indicating a potential trade setup for targeting the Balanced Price Range imbalance (BPR) below with a stop loss above the buyside liquidity.
Although what we are demonstrating here is a hindsight example, it shows the potential usage this toolkit gives you for creating trading plans based on ICT Concepts.
Same chart but playing out the history further we can see directly after price came down to the Sellside liquidity & swept below it...
Then by enabling IFVGs in the settings, we can see the IFVG retests alongside the Sellside & Buyside liquidity acting in confluence.
Which allows us to see a great bullish structure in the market with various key levels for potential entries.
Here we can see a potential bullish setup as price has taken out a previous Sellside liquidity zone and is now retesting a NWOG + Volume Imbalance.
Users also have the option to display Fibonacci retracements based on market structure, order blocks, and imbalance areas, which can help place limit/stop orders more effectively as well as finding optimal points of interest beyond what the primary ICT Concepts features can generate for a trader.
In the above image we can see the Fibonacci extension was selected to be based on the NWOG giving us some upside levels above the buyside liquidity.
🔶 DETAILS
Each feature within the ICT Concepts indicator is described in the sub sections below.
🔹 Market Structure
Market structure labels are constructed from price breaking a prior swing point. This allows a user to determine the current market trend based on the price action.
There are two types of Market Structure labels included:
Market Structure Shift (MSS)
Break Of Structure (BOS)
A MSS occurs when price breaks a swing low in an uptrend or a swing high in a downtrend, highlighting a potential reversal. This is often labeled as "CHoCH", but ICT specifies it as MSS.
On the other hand, BOS labels occur when price breaks a swing high in an uptrend or a swing low in a downtrend. The occurrence of these particular swing points is caused by retracements (inducements) that highlights liquidity hunting in lower timeframes.
🔹 Order Blocks
More significant market participants (institutions) with the ability of placing large orders in the market will generally place a sequence of individual trades spread out in time. This is referred as executing what is called a "meta-order".
Order blocks highlight the area where potential meta-orders are executed. Bullish order blocks are located near local bottoms in an uptrend while bearish order blocks are located near local tops in a downtrend.
When price mitigates (breaks out) an order block, a breaker block is confirmed. We can eventually expect price to trade back to this breaker block offering a new trade opportunity.
🔹 Buyside & Sellside Liquidity
Buyside / Sellside liquidity levels highlight price levels where market participants might place limit/stop orders.
Buyside liquidity levels will regroup the stoploss orders of short traders as well as limit orders of long traders, while Sellside liquidity levels will regroup the stoploss orders of long traders as well as limit orders of short traders.
These levels can play different roles. More informed market participants might view these levels as source of liquidity, and once liquidity over a specific level is reduced it will be found in another area.
🔹 Imbalances
Imbalances highlight disparities between the bid/ask, these can also be defined as inefficiencies, which would suggest that not all available information is reflected by the price and would as such provide potential trading opportunities.
It is common for price to "rebalance" and seek to come back to a previous imbalance area.
ICT highlights multiple imbalance formations:
Fair Value Gaps: A three candle formation where the candle shadows adjacent to the central candle do not overlap, this highlights a gap area.
Implied Fair Value Gaps: Unlike the fair value gap the implied fair value gap has candle shadows adjacent to the central candle overlapping. The gap area is constructed from the average between the respective shadow and the nearest extremity of their candle body.
Balanced Price Range: Balanced price ranges occur when a fair value gap overlaps a previous fair value gap, with the overlapping area resulting in the imbalance area.
Volume Imbalance: Volume imbalances highlight gaps between the opening price and closing price with existing trading activity (the low/high overlap the previous high/low).
Opening Gap: Unlike volume imbalances opening gaps highlight areas with no trading activity. The low/high does not reach previous high/low, highlighting a "void" area.
🔹 Displacement
Displacements are scenarios where price forms successive candles of the same sentiment (bullish/bearish) with large bodies and short shadows.
These can more technically be identified by positive auto correlation (a close to open change is more likely to be followed by a change of the same sign) as well as volatility clustering (large changes are followed by large changes).
Displacements can be the cause for the formation of imbalances as well as market structure, these can be caused by the full execution of a meta order.
🔹 Kill Zones
Killzones represent different time intervals that aims at offering optimal trade entries. Killzones include:
- New York Killzone (7:9 ET)
- London Open Killzone (2:5 ET)
- London Close Killzone (10:12 ET)
- Asian Killzone (20:00 ET)
🔶 Conclusion & Supplementary Material
This script aims to emulate how a trader would draw each of the covered features on their chart in the most precise representation to how it's actually taught by ICT directly.
There are many parallels between ICT Concepts and Smart Money Concepts that we released in 2022 which has a more general & simpler usage:
ICT Concepts, however, is more specifically aligned toward the community's interpretation of how to analyze price 'based on ICT', rather than displaying features to have a more classic interpretation for a technical analyst.
Per Volume Price ImpactLiquidity, Information and Market Timing
* Market Liquidity
The term liquidity can refer to many things in finance. In this article, we will limit the scope of discussion to the market’s ability to transact without incurring a significant increase in volatility.
As we know, liquidity and volatility have an inversed relationship — the more ample the liquidity, the lower the volatility (attributed to transaction cost, price movement and, so on). With this understanding, we can say large movements in the market are driven by low liquidity. This does not seem to make sense because the markets are huge, how can it possibly be illiquid? Now, this has to do with how the market operates and how exchanges occur (This topic concerns the area of market microstructure).
* Order Book & the Trading Process
So how does a transaction actually occur in the market? Let’s assume we open a position with a market order. In this case, you will get the price on your quote board if there are enough units of assets people are willing to sell at that price. If there are not enough units, you will buy from the second-best price and so on until your order is filled. Now in the second case, as the order is being filled, the change in price is recorded. Therefore, if someone wishes to move the market, theoretically, they just need to buy up or sell up but it is problematic to do so.
Here is why:
while dry up the liquidity can make huge moves, it is inefficient to do so.
it takes a lot of money to do that
your position will be exposed, someone more resourceful than you may go against you and that is a huge risk
market manipulation charges
when you open a position, the entry price of the position is essentially a VWAP (volume-weighted average price). If you attempt to move the market and open a buy position at the same time, you will have a higher VWAP, eating into your own profit.
I think these reasons are sufficient in establishing why opening a position and drying up liquidity to profit is a dumb idea. But of course, the institutions are not stupid, the alternative is to enter your position first then move the market.
To measure liquidity one of the tools people use is the order book. It can offer an overview of the sentiment (by looking at the orders and changes in volume) and how people are positioned (if the broker offers such data). In my opinion, open interest is a much better tool than order as it records the transactions that have occurred, hence less prone to manipulations (google: “Navinder Singh Sarao”, the trader who used fake orders to manipulate algorithms to crash the market).
But to quantify the order book is so much work as well (there are ways, just difficult), what we can do is to make things simpler.
* Quantify Market Impact
We know price and volume reflect information, while the past technical information has no predictive power per semi-strong form of EMH, empirical studies have often tested this theory over a longer time horizon. In our case, precisely due to the mechanism of exchange and human behavior (The lack of incentive to move the market right away) we can, in the very short term (often intraday), foresee if the market is going to move or not. Back to the very definition of liquidity being the ability to transact without moving the market significantly, we can take this definition and quantify it with this formula:
Market Impact = (High — Low) / Volume
Why specifically “high — low”, because that’s the complete information in that moment and it is corresponding to the volume. A little crude but it is the simplest form.
A few things to take note of here:
We can only know the complete picture once the candle is complete. This is fine in most markets because it takes time to gather money and orders.
We often see high liquidity during certain time of the day, for example, when the market opens and so on. As a result, we need to take some scientific approaches to transform the data.
Now, this looks much better. To interpret this graph, the lower the value, the lower the market impact, the deeper the liquidity.
* Generate Tradable Insights
To generate trade ideas isn’t a difficult task, we all know the RSI, MOM, STOC, etc. all the indicators attempt to draw boundaries, and we can do the same but we need to be a little more advanced and critical.
step 1: we first need to normalize the data. To do that we will take the log of the values to make the skewed distribution normal. The result isn’t ideal if you zoom out but I think this is decent enough to work with. Here is
This is still not a stationary time series, but it looks stable enough and it mean-reverts. So we turn to our lovely standard deviation bands for help.
Step 2: Because this is not a stationary process (visually, you can test it statistically if you wish), we cannot just take sample mean and SD and also because we want to show off our data skills, so we turn to move averages and regressions. I’m going to use moving regression here because I think it is better (mean can be distorted by large values by a larger margin and it lags)
I’m using the moving regression band on TradingView and 1.5 SD here for convenience, you can try to optimize the parameters with codes or other regression models if you wish. But I think it is more important to understand the rationale here.
This step is essentially trying to figure out the anomalies in liquidity so that we can see when there is deep liquidity. This is also why choosing the parameter is crucial because you are essentially approximating how much informed trading is taking place (This is a concept in market microstructure for brokerages to set their spreads but it is not a good tool in a liquid market). By setting the level at 1.5 we are assuming about 86% of the time the market is in what we consider a normal liquid state. (again it is arbitrary, but based on the 68–95–99.7 rule of normal distribution). The rest of the time will be either low or high liquidity, When liquidity is deep, it perhaps, signals institutional money is pouring into the market and big moves may follow.
* Conclusion
There you have it, how to enter the market with the big bucks. But do take note there are plenty of assumptions and a lot to improve on here.
Smart Volume S/R Pro [The_lurker]مؤشر "Smart Volume S/R Pro " هو أداة تحليل فني متقدمة مصممة لمساعدة المتداولين في تحديد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة القوية بناءً على حجم التداول، مع إضافة ميزات تحليلية متطورة مثل تصفية الاتجاه ، مناطق الثقة ، تقييم القوة ، حساب احتمالية الاختراق ، قياس السيولة ، تحديد الأهداف السعرية ، ومستويات فيبوناتشي . وايضا تقديم تسميات (Labels) بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تحتوي على أرقام ومعلومات دقيقة تعكس حالة السوق. هذه التسميات ليست مجرد زينة، بل أدوات تحليلية تساعد المتداولين على اتخاذ قرارات مستنيرة بناءً على بيانات السوقيهدف هذا المؤشر إلى توفير رؤية شاملة للسوق .
الوظائف الرئيسية للمؤشر
1- تحديد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على حجم التداول العالي
يقوم المؤشر بتحليل الأشرطة (Bars) السابقة (حتى 300 شريط افتراضيًا) لتحديد النقاط التي شهدت أعلى مستويات حجم التداول.
يرسم خطوط أفقية تمثل مستويات المقاومة (عند أعلى سعر في تلك الأشرطة) والدعم (عند أدنى سعر)، ويمكن للمستخدم اختيار عدد الخطوط المعروضة (من 1 إلى 6).
2- تصفية الاتجاه باستخدام مؤشر ADX
يستخدم المؤشر مؤشر الاتجاه المتوسط (ADX) لتقييم قوة الاتجاه في السوق.
عندما تكون قوة الاتجاه عالية (تتجاوز عتبة محددة، 25 افتراضيًا)، يقلل المؤشر عدد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة المعروضة للتركيز فقط على المستويات الأكثر أهمية.
3- مناطق الثقة الديناميكية
يضيف المؤشر مناطق حول مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على متوسط المدى الحقيقي (ATR)، مما يساعد المتداولين على تصور النطاقات التي قد يتفاعل فيها السعر مع هذه المستويات.
يمكن تعديل عرض هذه المناطق باستخدام مضاعف ATR.
4- تقييم قوة المستويات
يحسب المؤشر قوة كل مستوى بناءً على حجم التداول، عدد المرات التي تم اختبار المستوى فيها (Touch Count)، وقرب السعر الحالي من المستوى.
يتم عرض درجة القوة (من 0 إلى 100) بجانب كل مستوى إذا تم تفعيل هذه الخاصية.
5- احتمالية الاختراق
يقدّر المؤشر احتمالية اختراق كل مستوى بناءً على الزخم (ROC)، قوة المستوى، والمسافة بين السعر الحالي والمستوى.
يظهر الاحتمال كنسبة مئوية إذا تم تفعيل الخيار، مما يساعد المتداولين على توقع الحركات المحتملة.
6- تحليل السيولة التاريخية
يقيس المؤشر السيولة حول كل مستوى بناءً على حجم التداول في النطاقات القريبة منه.
يمكن عرض قيم السيولة في التسميات أو استخدامها لتعديل عرض الخطوط (الخطوط الأكثر سيولة تظهر أعرض).
7- الأهداف السعرية
عند تفعيل هذه الخاصية، يحسب المؤشر أهداف سعرية للاختراق (Breakout) والارتداد (Reversal) بناءً على الزخم وقوة المستوى وATR.
يمكن عرض هذه الأهداف كنصوص في التسميات أو كخطوط أفقية على الرسم البياني.
8- مستويات فيبوناتشي
يرسم المؤشر مستويات فيبوناتشي (0.0، 0.236، 0.382، 0.5، 0.618، 0.786، 1.0) بناءً على أعلى وأدنى سعر في فترة النظرة الخلفية.
يمكن للمستخدم اختيار أي من هذه المستويات لعرضها أو إخفائها.
9- تنبيه شامل للاختراق
يوفر المؤشر تنبيهًا واحدًا يشمل جميع المستويات، حيث يُطلق التنبيه عندما يخترق السعر أي مستوى دعم أو مقاومة مع رسالة توضح نوع الاختراق والمستوى المخترق.
كيفية عمل المؤشر
الخطوة الأولى: يحدد المؤشر الأشرطة ذات الحجم العالي خلال فترة النظرة الخلفية المحددة (Lookback Period).
الخطوة الثانية: يرسم مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على أعلى وأدنى الأسعار في تلك الأشرطة، مع مراعاة عدد الخطوط المختارة من المستخدم.
الخطوة الثالثة: يطبق مرشح الاتجاه (إذا كان مفعلاً) لتقليل عدد المستويات في حالة الاتجاه القوي.
الخطوة الرابعة: يضيف التحليلات الإضافية مثل القوة، السيولة، احتمالية الاختراق، والأهداف السعرية، ويرسم مناطق الثقة ومستويات فيبوناتشي حسب الإعدادات.
الخطوة الخامسة: يراقب السعر ويطلق تنبيهًا عند الاختراق.
الإعدادات القابلة للتخصيص

==================================================================================تسميات (Labels) بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تحتوي على أرقام ومعلومات دقيقة تعكس حالة السوق. هذه التسميات ليست مجرد زينة، بل أدوات تحليلية تساعد المتداولين على اتخاذ قرارات مستنيرة بناءً على بيانات السوق. في هذا الشرح، سنستعرض كل رقم أو قيمة تظهر في التسميات ومعناها العملي.
مكونات التسميات
التسميات تظهر بجانب كل مستوى دعم (Support) ومقاومة (Resistance) وتبدأ بحرف "S" للدعم أو "R" للمقاومة، تليها مجموعة من الأرقام والقيم التي يمكن تفعيلها أو تعطيلها حسب إعدادات المستخدم. إليك تفصيل كل عنصر:
1- عدد اللمسات (Touch Count)
الرمز: يظهر مباشرة بعد "S" أو "R" (مثال: "R: 5" أو "S: 3").
المعنى: يشير إلى عدد المرات التي اختبر فيها السعر هذا المستوى دون اختراقه.
الفائدة: كلما زاد عدد اللمسات، كلما كان المستوى أقوى وأكثر أهمية. على سبيل المثال، إذا كان "R: 5"، فهذا يعني أن السعر ارتد من هذا المستوى 5 مرات، مما يجعله مقاومة قوية محتملة.
2- قوة المستوى (Strength Rating)
الرمز: يظهر بين قوسين مربعين (مثال: " ").
المعنى: قيمة من 0 إلى 100 تعكس قوة المستوى بناءً على عوامل مثل حجم التداول، عدد اللمسات، وقرب السعر الحالي من المستوى.
الفائدة: القيم العالية (مثل 75 أو أكثر) تشير إلى مستوى قوي يصعب اختراقه، بينما القيم المنخفضة (مثل 30 أو أقل) تدل على ضعف المستوى وسهولة اختراقه. يمكن للمتداول استخدام هذا لتحديد المستويات الأكثر موثوقية.
3- احتمالية الاختراق (Breakout Probability)
الرمز: يبدأ بحرف "B" متبوعًا بنسبة مئوية (مثال: "B: 60%").
المعنى: نسبة من 0% إلى 100% تُظهر احتمالية اختراق السعر للمستوى بناءً على الزخم الحالي، قوة المستوى، والمسافة بين السعر والمستوى.
الفائدة: نسبة مرتفعة (مثل 60% أو أكثر) تعني أن السعر قد يخترق المستوى قريبًا، بينما النسب المنخفضة (مثل 20%) تشير إلى احتمال ارتداد السعر. هذا مفيد لتوقع الحركة التالية.
4- قيمة السيولة (Liquidity Value)
الرمز: يبدأ بحرف "L" متبوعًا برقم (مثال: "L: 1200").
المعنى: يمثل متوسط حجم التداول في النطاق القريب من المستوى، مما يعكس السيولة التاريخية حوله.
الفائدة: القيم العالية تدل على وجود سيولة كبيرة، مما يعني أن السعر قد يتفاعل بقوة مع هذا المستوى (إما بالارتداد أو الاختراق). القيم المنخفضة تشير إلى سيولة ضعيفة، مما قد يجعل المستوى أقل تأثيرًا.
5- الأهداف السعرية (Price Targets)
الرمز: يبدأ بـ "BT" (هدف الاختراق) و"RT" (هدف الارتداد) متبوعين بأرقام (مثال: "BT: 150.50 RT: 148.20").
المعنى:
BT (Breakout Target): السعر المحتمل الذي قد يصل إليه السعر بعد اختراق المستوى.
RT (Reversal Target): السعر المحتمل الذي قد يصل إليه السعر إذا ارتد من المستوى.
الفائدة: تساعد المتداولين في تحديد نقاط الخروج المحتملة بعد الاختراق أو الارتداد، مما يسهل وضع خطة تداول دقيقة.
أمثلة عملية
تسمية مقاومة: "R: 4 B: 25% L: 1500 BT: 155.00 RT: 152.00"
المستوى اختُبر 4 مرات، قوته 80 (قوي جدًا)، احتمالية الاختراق 25% (منخفضة، أي احتمال ارتداد أعلى)، السيولة 1500 (مرتفعة)، هدف الاختراق 155.00، هدف الارتداد 152.00.
الاستنتاج: المستوى قوي ومن المرجح أن يرتد السعر منه، لكن إذا اخترق، فقد يصل إلى 155.00.
تسمية دعم: "S: 2 B: 70% L: 800 BT: 145.00 RT: 147.50"
المستوى اختُبر مرتين، قوته 40 (متوسطة إلى ضعيفة)، احتمالية الاختراق 70% (مرتفعة)، السيولة 800 (متوسطة)، هدف الاختراق 145.00، هدف الارتداد 147.50.
الاستنتاج: المستوى ضعيف ومن المحتمل أن يخترقه السعر ليهبط إلى 145.00.
كيفية الاستفادة من التسميات
تحديد القوة والضعف: استخدم قوة المستوى (Strength) لمعرفة ما إذا كان المستوى موثوقًا للارتداد أو عرضة للاختراق.
توقع الحركة: انظر إلى احتمالية الاختراق (Breakout Probability) لتحديد ما إذا كنت ستنتظر اختراقًا أو ترتدًا.
إدارة المخاطر: استخدم الأهداف السعرية (BT وRT) لتحديد نقاط جني الأرباح أو وقف الخسارة.
تقييم السيولة: ركز على المستويات ذات السيولة العالية لأنها غالبًا تكون نقاط تحول رئيسية في السوق.
تأكيد التحليل: ادمج عدد اللمسات مع القوة والسيولة للحصول على صورة كاملة عن أهمية المستوى.
تخصيص التسميات
يمكن للمستخدم تفعيل أو تعطيل أي من هذه القيم (القوة، الاحتمالية، السيولة، الأهداف) من إعدادات المؤشر.
يمكن أيضًا تغيير حجم التسميات (صغير، عادي، كبير)، موقعها (يمين، يسار، أعلى، أسفل)، ولون النص لتناسب احتياجاتك.
التسميات في هذا المؤشر هي بمثابة لوحة تحكم صغيرة بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تقدم لك معلومات فورية عن قوته، احتمالية اختراقه، سيولته، وأهدافه السعرية. بفهم هذه الأرقام، يمكنك تحسين قراراتك في التداول، سواء كنت تبحث عن نقاط دخول، خروج، أو إدارة مخاطر. إذا كنت تريد أداة تجمع بين البساطة والعمق التحليلي .
تنويه:
المؤشر هو أداة مساعدة فقط ويجب استخدامه مع التحليل الفني والأساسي لتحقيق أفضل النتائج.

The Smart Volume S/R Pro indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify strong support and resistance levels based on trading volume, with the addition of advanced analytical features such as trend filtering, confidence zones, strength assessment, breakout probability calculation, liquidity measurement, price target identification, and Fibonacci levels. It also provides labels next to each support and resistance level, containing accurate numbers and information that reflect the market condition. These labels are not just decorations, but analytical tools that help traders make informed decisions based on market data. This indicator aims to provide a comprehensive view of the market.
Main functions of the indicator
1- Identifying support and resistance levels based on high trading volume
The indicator analyzes previous bars (up to 300 bars by default) to identify the points that witnessed the highest levels of trading volume.
It draws horizontal lines representing resistance levels (at the highest price in those bars) and support (at the lowest price), and the user can choose the number of lines displayed (from 1 to 6).
2- Filtering the trend using the ADX indicator
The indicator uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to assess the strength of a trend in the market.
When the strength of the trend is high (exceeding a specified threshold, 25 by default), the indicator reduces the number of support and resistance levels displayed to focus only on the most important levels.
3- Dynamic Confidence Zones
The indicator adds zones around support and resistance levels based on the Average True Range (ATR), helping traders visualize the ranges in which the price may interact with these levels.
The width of these zones can be adjusted using the ATR multiplier.
4- Assessing the Strength of Levels
The indicator calculates the strength of each level based on trading volume, the number of times the level has been tested (Touch Count), and the proximity of the current price to the level.
A strength score (from 0 to 100) is displayed next to each level if this feature is enabled.
5- Breakout Probability
The indicator estimates the probability of breaking each level based on momentum (ROC), the strength of the level, and the distance between the current price and the level.
The probability is displayed as a percentage if the option is enabled, helping traders anticipate potential moves.
6- Historical Liquidity Analysis
The indicator measures liquidity around each level based on the trading volume in the ranges near it.
The liquidity values can be displayed in the labels or used to adjust the width of the lines (the most liquid lines appear wider).
7- Price Targets
When this feature is enabled, the indicator calculates price targets for breakout and reversal based on momentum, level strength and ATR.
These targets can be displayed as text in the labels or as horizontal lines on the chart.
8- Fibonacci Levels
The indicator plots Fibonacci levels (0.0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.0) based on the highest and lowest price in the lookback period.
The user can choose which of these levels to display or hide.
9- Comprehensive Breakout Alert
The indicator provides a single alert that includes all levels, where the alert is triggered when the price breaks any support or resistance level with a message explaining the type of breakout and the level broken.
How the indicator works
Step 1: The indicator identifies the bars with high volume during the specified Lookback Period.
Step 2: Draws support and resistance levels based on the highest and lowest prices in those bars, taking into account the number of lines selected by the user.
Step 3: Apply the trend filter (if enabled) to reduce the number of levels in case of a strong trend.
Step 4: Adds additional analyses such as strength, liquidity, breakout probability, and price targets, and draws confidence zones and Fibonacci levels according to the settings.
Step 5: Monitors the price and triggers an alert when the breakout occurs.
Customizable Settings
1- Lookback Period: Number of bars to analyze (default 300).
2- Number of Lines: From 1 to 6 support and resistance levels.
3- Colors and Styles: Line colors and styles can be changed (filled, dashed, dotted).
4- Labels: Enable/disable labels, their size, location, and text color.
5- Trend Filter: Enable/disable ADX, and modify its length and threshold.
6- Confidence Zones: Enable/disable, and modify the ATR length and multiplier.
7- Strength and Breakout Probability: Enable/disable the display, and modify the ROC length.
8- Liquidity: Enable/disable the effect of liquidity on the display of the lines and their values in the labels.
9- Price Targets: Enable/disable the targets and display them as lines.
10- Fibonacci: Choose the displayed levels and the color of the lines.
Indicator Benefits
High Accuracy: It relies on trading volume to determine the levels, which makes it more reliable than random levels.
Flexibility: It provides extensive customization options that allow traders to adapt it to their strategies.
Comprehensive Analysis: Combines support and resistance, trend, liquidity, and targets in one tool. Ease of Use: Labels and alerts make it easy to follow the market without complexity.
Labels next to each support and resistance level contain accurate numbers and information that reflect the market situation. These labels are not just decorations, but analytical tools that help traders make informed decisions based on market data. In this explanation, we will review each number or value that appears in the labels and their practical meaning.
Label Components
Labels appear next to each support and resistance level and begin with the letter "S" for support or "R" for resistance, followed by a set of numbers and values that can be enabled or disabled according to the user's settings. Here is a breakdown of each element:
1- Touch Count
Symbol: Appears immediately after "S" or "R" (example: "R: 5" or "S: 3").
Meaning: Indicates the number of times the price has tested this level without breaking it.
Benefit: The more touches, the stronger and more important the level. For example, if it is "R: 5", it means that the price has bounced off this level 5 times, making it a potentially strong resistance.
2- Strength Rating
Symbol: Appears between square brackets (example: " ").
Meaning: A value from 0 to 100 that reflects the strength of the level based on factors such as trading volume, number of touches, and proximity of the current price to the level.
Benefit: High values (such as 75 or more) indicate a strong level that is difficult to break, while low values (such as 30 or less) indicate a weak level that is easy to break. A trader can use this to determine the most reliable levels.
3- Breakout Probability
Symbol: Starts with the letter "B" followed by a percentage (example: "B: 60%").
Meaning: A percentage from 0% to 100% that shows the probability of the price breaking the level based on the current momentum, the strength of the level, and the distance between the price and the level.
Interest: A high percentage (such as 60% or more) means that the price may soon break through the level, while low percentages (such as 20%) indicate that the price may bounce. This is useful for anticipating the next move.
4- Liquidity Value
Symbol: Starts with the letter "L" followed by a number (example: "L: 1200").
Meaning: Represents the average trading volume in the range near the level, reflecting historical liquidity around it.
Interest: High values indicate high liquidity, meaning that the price may react strongly to this level (either by bouncing or breaking through). Low values indicate low liquidity, which may make the level less influential.
5- Price Targets
Symbol: Starts with "BT" (breakout target) and "RT" (rebound target) followed by numbers (example: "BT: 150.50 RT: 148.20").
Meaning:
BT (Breakout Target): The potential price that the price may reach after breaking the level.
RT (Reversal Target): The potential price that the price may reach if it rebounds from the level.
Utility: Helps traders identify potential exit points after a breakout or rebound, making it easier to develop an accurate trading plan.
Working examples
Resistance label: "R: 4 B: 25% L: 1500 BT: 155.00 RT: 152.00"
Level tested 4 times, strength 80 (very strong), probability of breakout 25% (low, i.e. higher probability of rebound), liquidity 1500 (high), breakout target 155.00, rebound target 152.00.
Conclusion: The level is strong and the price is likely to rebound from it, but if it breaks, it may reach 155.00.
Support Label: "S: 2 B: 70% L: 800 BT: 145.00 RT: 147.50"
Level tested twice, Strength 40 (medium to weak), Breakout Probability 70% (high), Liquidity 800 (medium), Breakout Target 145.00, Rebound Target 147.50.
Conclusion: The level is weak and the price is likely to break it to drop to 145.00.
How to use labels
Determine strength and weakness: Use the level's strength to see if the level is reliable for a bounce or vulnerable to a breakout.
Predict the move: Look at the Breakout Probability to determine whether to wait for a breakout or a bounce.
Risk Management: Use price targets (BT and RT) to set take profit or stop loss points.
Liquidity Evaluation: Focus on levels with high liquidity as they are often key turning points in the market.
Analysis Confirmation: Combine the number of touches with strength and liquidity to get a complete picture of the level’s importance.
Customize Labels
The user can enable or disable any of these values (strength, probability, liquidity, targets) from the indicator settings.
The size of the labels (small, normal, large), their position (right, left, top, bottom), and the color of the text can also be changed to suit your needs.
The labels in this indicator act as a small dashboard next to each support and resistance level, providing you with instant information about its strength, probability of breakout, liquidity, and price targets. By understanding these numbers, you can improve your trading decisions, whether you are looking for entry points, exit points, or risk management. If you want a tool that combines simplicity with analytical depth.
Disclaimer:
The indicator is an auxiliary tool only and should be used in conjunction with technical and fundamental analysis for best results.

BOS TRADER [v 1.0] [Influxum]The name of the tool, BOS Trader, comes from the abbreviation BOS, which stands for Break Of Structure. In simple terms, this tool identifies situations where a change in market structure occurs after liquidity has been grabbed. Following the structural change, it looks for a point where the balance between buyers and sellers will be tested, potentially continuing the price movement in the direction of the structural break.
The goal of this tool is to identify areas where a trader can look for potential entry opportunities based on their entry rules and filters. In our own research, we found that while this tool is not a standalone strategy, it provides a statistical advantage that stems from the nature of the market itself. If you expect the market to reverse at a certain price level against a short-term, medium-term, or long-term trend, that reversal must logically begin with a change in structure – i.e., its break. BOS Trader then highlights the zone where you can expect a strong reaction from traders speculating on the continuation of price in the direction of the break.
Another important piece of the puzzle is the concept of liquidity. Liquidity grabs are generally considered by traders to be events that can trigger market direction changes. That's why BOS Trader is complemented with multiple ways to identify liquidity in the market from a Price Action perspective. We have explored the liquidity concept in depth in our other tools – the Liquidity Tool and Liquidity Strategy Tester – so we won’t go into too much detail on liquidity settings here.
🟪 Pivots
Liquidity can be found beyond pivot extremes – the highest candles in a series of candles. The pivot liquidity setting specifies how many candles must be before and after the pivot candle with a lower high for a pivot high or a higher low for a pivot low. A pivot high is the local highest point of the last 31 candles (15 before the pivot candle, the pivot candle itself, and 15 after). Another option is to set the time period in which the pivot extreme must occur. For example, you can differentiate between pivot highs of the Asian or London session.
🟪 % Percent Change
This setting is based on the well-known Zig Zag indicator and confirms swing highs or swing lows when there is a certain percentage change in price. This helps filter out noise that can occur when the market consolidates and randomly creates pivot highs or lows that aren’t significant.
🟪 Session High/Low
Many popular strategies are based on liquidity defined as the price range of a specific trading session. This doesn't have to be London, Asia, or New York sessions, but could be, for instance, the first hour of the New York session, and so on.
🟪 Day High/Low, Week High/Low, Month High/Low
As the name suggests, liquidity is often defined by the high/low of the previous day, week, or month. These price levels are watched by many market participants, and it's reasonable to expect reactions at these levels. That’s why we included this option in the BOS tool.
Tip for Traders
To avoid common issues with setting the correct session time, we have added the BG option to the tool – the ability to display a background for the configured trading session. This makes it easy to verify that your trading session is set correctly in relation to your time zone.
Delete grabbed liquidity
If a liquidity level is breached by price, it becomes invalid. For those who prefer to keep their charts clean and uncluttered, there is an option to delete grabbed liquidity. This way, only untraded, valid liquidity lines will be visible on the chart.
Bars after liquidity grab
A liquidity grab should be a significant event that triggers a reaction from market participants. To ensure this is a real response to liquidity rather than random market behavior, we added a time test to the BOS tool. A structural break must occur within a specified time after the liquidity grab. You can define this time in the tool as the number of bars after which the structural break is still considered valid following the liquidity grab.
🟪 AOI (Area of Interest) Settings
Initially, it's important to note that there are two main options for setting the behavior of the AOI. The first option is to fix its duration by the number of bars – Duration, and the second is to keep the AOI valid until it is traded through – Extended.
Duration
Since we expect a quick reaction to the liquidity grab, we also expect a fast pullback to the AOI and a swift response of traders. Our research has shown that the strongest reactions typically occur within a maximum of 15 bars from the formation of the AOI (fractally across timeframes). Therefore, this value is set as the default. However, we recommend considering not just the speed of the reaction but also its intensity. After the set number of bars, the AOI stops extending further.
Extended
We have noticed that price has a tendency to return to the AOI even after a longer period and react again. For this reason, we included the option in the BOS tool to extend the AOI into the future, with the ability to freely adjust the Max AOI Length.
🟪 AOI Size Mode
There are two options for setting the size of the AOI. Either it can be calculated as a percentage of the swing size (% of swing) in which the structural break occurred (the default setting is 30%), or you can set a different concept for the AOI size. For example, the well-known Optimal Trade Entry model. Custom values can be set in the FIBO Levels option, where you can define either preferred Fibonacci values or values based on your own criteria.
🟪 Trading Session (signals + alerts + visibility)
The main goal of our tools is to make it easier for traders to identify patterns and opportunities in the market and allow them to be alerted to their occurrence. The time for AOI plotting after a liquidity grab is combined into a single Trading Session function. This controls both the AOI plotting and when the tool will send alerts. All of this is aimed at helping traders avoid spending the entire day in front of their monitors, waiting for trading opportunities. Here, too, you can use the BG feature to plot a background on the chart showing the current session.
🟪 Trading within session range
We found that some traders have difficulty navigating the many AOIs plotted during times when the market consolidates and creates numerous false breakouts. Therefore, we included an option in the BOS tool to track only structural changes at the price extremes of the current day and trading session. The tool will not plot structural changes for internal liquidity grabs (within the session range), but only for external liquidity grabs (highest highs and lowest lows of the session or liquidity from previous days).
Visuals
The BOS tool is, of course, supplemented with the option to customize the appearance of all its components according to your preferences.
LuxAlgo® - Price Action Concepts™Price Action Concepts™ is a first of it's kind all-in-one indicator toolkit which includes various features specifically based on pure price action.
Order Blocks w/ volume data, real-time market structure (BOS, CHoCH, EQH/L) w/ 'CHoCH+' being a more confirmed reversal signal, a MTF dashboard, Trend Line Liquidity Zones (real-time), Chart Pattern Liquidity Zones, Liquidity Grabs, and much more detailed customization to get an edge trading price action automatically.
Many traders argue that trading price action is better than using technical indicators due to lag, complexity, and noisy charts. Popular ideas within the trading space that cater towards price action trading include "trading like the banks" or "Smart Money Concepts trading" (SMC), most prominently known within the forex community.
What differentiates price action trading from others forms of technical analysis is that it's main focus is on raw price data opposed to creating values or plots derived from price history.
Mostly all of the features within this script are generated purely from price action, more specifically; swing highs, swing lows, and market structure... which allows users to automate their analysis of price action for any market / timeframe.
🔶 FEATURES
This script includes many features based on Price Action; these are highlighted below:
Market structure (BOS, CHoCH, CHoCH+, EQH/L) (Internal & Swing) multi-timeframe
Volumetric Order Blocks & mitigation methods (bullish & bearish)
Liquidity Concepts
Trend Line Liquidity Zones
Chart Pattern Liquidity
Liquidity Grabs Feature
Imbalance Concepts MTF w/ multiple mitigation methods
Fair Value Gaps
Balanced Price Range
Activity Asymmetry
Strong/Weak Highs & Lows w/ volume percentages
Premium & Discount Zones included
Candle Coloring based on market structure
Previous Highs/Lows (Daily, Monday's, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly)
Multi-Timeframe Dashboard (15m, 1h, 4h, 1d)
Built-in alert conditions & Any Alert() Function Call Conditions
Advanced Alerts Creator to create step-by-step alerts with various conditions
+ more (see changelog below for current features)
🔶 BASIC DEMONSTRATION
In the image above we can see a demonstration of the market structure labeling within this indicator. The automatic BOS & CHoCH labels on top of dashed lines give clear indications of breakouts & reversals within the internal market structure (short term price action). The "CHoCH+" label is also demonstrated as it triggers only if price has already made a new higher low, or lower high.
We can also see a solid line with a larger BOS label in the middle of the chart. This label demonstrates a break of structure taking into account the swing market structure (longer term price action). All of these labels are generated in real-time.
🔶 USAGE & EXAMPLES
In the image below we can see how a trade setup could be created using Order Blocks w/ volume metrics to find points of interest in the market, swing / internal market structure to get indications of longer & shorter term reversals, and trend line liquidity zones to find more likely impulses & breakouts within trends.
We can see in the next image below that price came down to the highest volume order block marked out previously as our point of interest for an entry used in confluence with the overall market structure being bullish (swing CHoCH). Due to price closing below the middle Order Block at (24.77%), we saw it was mitigated, and then price revisited liquidity above the Trend Line zone above, leading us to the first Order Block as a target.
You will notice the % values adjust as Order Blocks are touched & mitigated, aligning with the correct volume detected when the Order Block was established.
In the image below we can see more features from within Price Action Concepts™ indicator, including Chart Pattern Liquidity, Fair Value Gaps (one of many Imbalance Concepts), Liquidity Grabs, as well as the primary market structures & OBs.
By using multiple features as such, users can develop a greater interpretation of where liquidity rests in the market, which allows them to develop trading plans a lot easier. Liquidity Grabs are highlighted as blue/red boxes on the wicks during specific price action that indicates the market has made an impulse specifically to take out resting buy or sell side orders.
We can notice in the trade demonstrated below (hindsight example) how price often moves to the areas of the most liquidity, even if unexpected according to classical technical analysis performed by retail traders such as chart patterns. Wicks to take out orders above & potentially trap traders are much more noticeable with features such as these.
The Chart Patterns which can be detected include:
Ascending/Descending Wedges (Asc/Desc Wedge)
Ascending/Descending Broadening Wedges (Asc/Desc BW)
Ascending/Descending/Symmetrical Triangles (Asc/Desc/Sym Triangle)
Double Tops/Bottoms (Double Top/Double BTM)
Head & Shoulders (H&S)
Inverted Head & Shoulders (IH&S)
General support & resistance during undetected patterns
In the image below we can see more features from within the indicator, including Balanced Price Range (another imbalance method similar to FVG), Market Structure Candle Coloring, Accumulation & Distribution zones, Premium & Discount zones w/ a percentage on each zone, the MTF dashboard, as well as the Previous Daily Highs & Lows (one of many highs/lows) displayed on the chart automatically.
The colored candles use more specific market structure analysis, specifically allowing users to visualize when trends are considered "normal" or "strong". By utilizing other features alongside this market structure analysis, such as noticing price retesting the PDL level + the Equilibrium as resistance, a Balanced Price Range below price, the discount with a high 72% metric, and the MTF dashboard displaying an overall bearish structure...
...users can instantly gain a deeper interpretation of price action, make highly confluent trading plans while avoiding classical technical indicators, and use traditional retail trading concepts such as chart patterns / trend lines to their advantage in finding logical areas of liquidity & points of interest in the market.
The image below shows the previous chart zoomed in with 2 liquidity concepts re-enabled & used alongside a new range targeting the same Discount zone.

CandelaCharts - Turtle Soup Model📝 Overview
The ICT Turtle Soup Model indicator is a precision-engineered tool designed to identify high-probability reversal setups based on ICT’s renowned Turtle Soup strategy.
The Turtle Soup Model is a classic reversal setup that exploits false breakouts beyond previous swing highs or lows. It targets areas where retail traders are trapped into breakout trades, only for the price to reverse sharply in the opposite direction.
Price briefly breaks a previous high (for short setups) or low (for long setups), triggering stop orders and pulling in breakout traders. Once that liquidity is taken, smart money reverses price back inside the range, creating a high-probability fade setup.
📦 Features
Liquidity Levels: Projects forward-looking liquidity levels after a Turtle Soup model is formed, highlighting potential price targets. These projected zones act as magnet levels—areas where price is likely to reach based on the liquidity draw narrative. This allows traders to manage exits and partials with more precision.
Market Structure Shift (MSS): Confirms reversal strength by detecting a bullish or bearish MSS after a sweep. Acts as a secondary confirmation to filter out weak setups.
Custom TF Pairing: Choose your own combination of entry timeframe and context timeframe. For example, trade 5m setups inside a 1h HTF bias — perfect for aligning microstructure with macro intent.
HTF & LTF PD Arrays: Displays HTF PD Arrays (e.g., Fair Value Gaps, Inversion Fair Value Gaps) to serve as confluence zones.
History: Review and backtest past Turtle Soup setups directly on the chart. Toggle historical models on/off to study model behavior across different market conditions.
Killzone Filter: Limit signals to specific trading sessions or time blocks (e.g., New York AM, London, Asia, etc). Avoid signals in low-liquidity or choppy environments.
Standard Deviation: Calculates and projects four levels of standard deviation from the point of model confirmation. These zones help identify overextended moves, mean-reversion opportunities, and confluence with liquidity or PD arrays.
Dashboard: The dashboard displays the active model type, remaining time of the HTF candle, current bias, asset name, and date—providing real-time context and signal clarity at a glance.

💡 Framework
The Turtle Soup Model is designed to detect and interpret false breakout patterns by analyzing key price action components, each playing a vital role in identifying liquidity traps and generating actionable reversal signals.
The model incorporates the following timeframe pairing:
15s - 5m - 15m
1m - 5m - 1H
2m - 15m - 2H
3m - 30m - 3H
5m - 60m - 4H
15m - 1H - 8H
30m - 3H - 12H
1H - 4H - 1D
4H - 1D - 1W
1D - 1W - 1M
1W - 1M - 6M
1M - 6M - 12M
Below are the key components that make up the model:
Sweep
D-purge
MSS
Liquidity
Standard Deviation
HTF & LTF PD Arrays
The Turtle Soup Model operates through a defined lifecycle that identifies its current state and determines the validity of a trade opportunity.
The model's lifecycle includes the following statuses:
Formation (grey)
Invalidation (red)
Pre-Invalidation (purple)
Success (green)
By incorporating the phases of Formation, Invalidation, and Success, traders can effectively manage risk, optimize position handling, and capitalize on the high-probability opportunities presented by the Turtle Soup Model.
⚡️ Showcase
Introducing the Turtle Soup Model — a powerful trading tool engineered to detect high-probability false breakout reversals. This indicator helps you pinpoint liquidity sweeps, confirm market structure shifts, and identify precise entry and exit points, enabling more confident, informed, and timely trading decisions.
LTF PD Array
LTF PD Arrays are essential for model formation—a valid Turtle Soup setup will only trigger if a qualifying LTF PD Array is present near the sweep zone.
HTF PD Array
HTF PD Arrays provide macro-level context and are used to validate the direction and strength of the potential reversal.
Timeframe Alignment
In the Turtle Soup trading model, timeframe alignment is an essential structural component. The model relies on multi-timeframe context to identify high-probability reversal setups based on failed breakouts.
High-Probability Model
A high-probability setup forms when key elements align: a Sweep, Market Structure Shift (MSS), LTF and HTF PD Arrays.
Killzone Filters
Filter Turtle Soup Models based on key market sessions: Asia, London, New York AM, New York Launch, and New York PM . This allows you to focus on high-liquidity periods where smart money activity is most likely to occur, improving both the quality and timing of your trade setups.
