ES 30 Second Opening RangeOverview
Tracks opening ranges across three global futures sessions (RTH, Globex, Europe) using 30-second precision sampling. Provides high/low/mid levels, 15-point projection intervals, and breakout detection for range-based trading.
What Makes This Unique
30-Second Precision: Uses request.security_lower_tf() to sample the first 30 seconds of each session, capturing exact opening range high/low rather than relying on larger timeframe bars.
Multi-Session Tracking: Simultaneously monitors RTH (8:30 AM CT), Globex (5:00 PM CT), and Europe (2:00 AM CT) opening ranges with independent calculations for 24-hour futures coverage.
15-Point Projections: RTH-specific feature plots 5 extension levels above/below opening range at 15-point intervals (+15, +30, +45, +60, +75). Calibrated for ES futures point movement.
Adjustable Scalp Levels: Customizable +/- point lines from RTH range (default 4 points) for precise entry/exit management.
How It Works
Opening Range Calculation:
Session detection: hour(time, "America/Chicago") + minute(time) * 0.01
30s data request: request.security_lower_tf(syminfo.tickerid, "30S", high/low)
Range capture: ta.valuewhen(session_time == start_time AND second == 0, array.get(data, 0), 0)
Midpoint: (high + low) / 2
At each session start, the indicator captures the first 30-second bar's high and low, then plots these as persistent levels throughout the session.
15-Point Intervals (RTH only):
Level_up = RTH_high + (15 × n) where n = 1,2,3,4,5
Level_down = RTH_low - (15 × n)
Breakout Detection:
Break_up = ta.crossover(close, session_high)
Break_down = ta.crossunder(close, session_low)
Statistics:
Range width = session_high - session_low (displayed in table)
How to Use
Session-Based Levels: Each session's opening range represents institutional price discovery. Use as dynamic support/resistance throughout the day.
Breakout Trading: Visual signals mark opening range breakouts. Narrow ranges (<10 points ES) often precede larger moves.
15-Point Targets: After RTH breakout, use 15-point intervals as profit targets. Example: after +15 hit, next target is +30.
Gap Analysis: Compare overnight sessions to RTH. Gaps often fill toward RTH opening range.
Scalping: Adjustable point offset provides tight profit targets from range boundaries.
Key Settings
Session Toggles: Enable/disable RTH, Globex, Europe individually
15-Point Lines: RTH-only, off by default. Shows 5 levels above/below OR at 15-point intervals
Point Offset (4.0): Adjustable for tighter (2-3) or wider (6-8) scalp levels
Range Boxes: Optional visual highlighting with adjustable transparency
Statistics Table: Shows session high, low, range width
Why Protected Source
The 30-second data aggregation using request.security_lower_tf() with time-based session detection, 15-point interval projection system calibrated for ES futures, and multi-session concurrent tracking represent proprietary implementation methods.
Important Disclaimers
Not Financial Advice. Educational tool only.
Instrument Specific. 15-point intervals optimized for ES futures. Other instruments may need different sizes.
Session Accuracy. Captures first 30 seconds only. Data gaps or late opens may affect accuracy.
Historical Limitations. Opening range effectiveness varies by market regime and volatility.
Always use proper risk management. This provides reference levels, not trade signals.

6 Custom HTF Candle Overlays (manny_mailbox2)This indicator displays up to 6 custom Higher Time Frame (HTF) candles overlaid on your chart, each representing a different time session that you define.
Core Functionality
Session-Based HTF Candles
Instead of using fixed timeframes (like 15min, 1H, 4H), this lets you create custom "candles" based on specific time ranges. For example:
HTF 1: 00:00-15:00 (default - basically a day session)
HTF 2: 07:00-11:00 (morning session)
HTF 3: 11:00-15:00 (afternoon session)
And so on...
What Each HTF Candle Shows
Each session candle displays the complete OHLC data for that time period:
Body box: Shows open and close (colored based on bull/bear)
Upper wick: High to close/open (whichever is higher)
Lower wick/tail: Low to close/open (whichever is lower)
Optional opening price line: Horizontal line at the session open
Additional Features
Body Midpoint: Shows the 50% level of the candle body
Wick Midpoints: Shows the 50% level of upper/lower wicks (only displays if the wick is "significant" - at least 1/6 of total candle range)
Extend option: Can extend the wick midpoint lines forward by X bars
Fully customizable colors: Separate colors for bull/bear bodies, borders, wicks, and midpoints for each HTF
Why Use This?
This is perfect for traders who want to:
Track specific market sessions (London, NY, Asia, etc.)
See consolidation periods or accumulation zones as single candles
Identify session highs/lows and key levels
Combine with your CISD indicator to see how price interacts with session structure
The 250-day lookback keeps your chart clean while giving you substantial history to analyze.

🔧 HOW IT WORKS
════════════════════════════════════════════
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
Session Tracking Algorithm:
• Detects session start/end using time() function with timezone support
• Continuously monitors and updates high/low during active session
• Finalizes range when session ends using var persistence
• Draws boxes using real-time bar_index positioning
• Maintains session ranges across multiple days for reference
Multi-Timeframe System:
• Uses ta.change(time()) detection to identify new MTF candle formation
• Constructs candles using custom Type definitions (Candle, CandleSet, Config)
• Stores OHLC data in arrays with automatic size management
• Renders using box objects (bodies) and line objects (wicks)
• Updates current candle every tick; historical candles remain static
• Calculates dynamic positioning based on user settings (offset, spacing, width)
Object-Oriented Architecture:
• Custom Type "Candle" - Stores OHLC values, timestamps, visual elements
• Custom Type "CandleSet" - Manages arrays of candles + settings per timeframe
• Custom Type "Config" - Centralizes all display configuration
• Efficient memory management via unshift() for new candles, pop() for old
Performance Optimizations:
• var declarations minimize recalculation overhead
• Conditional execution (sessions only on short timeframes)
• Maximum display limits prevent excessive object creation
• Timeframe validation at barstate.isfirst reduces redundant checks

Apex FX - 1st 4H CandleApex FX - 1st 4H Candle
Overview
This indicator identifies the very first 4-hour candle of the trading day and plots its high and low as horizontal lines. These levels are designed to act as key support and resistance for the rest of the 24-hour session.
The lines are calculated using 4-hour data but display on any timeframe, allowing you to see these key daily levels while trading on lower timeframes like the 15-minute or 5-minute chart. The lines extend for the first six 4-hour candles (24 hours) before stopping.
Features
Flexible Timezone: A simple dropdown menu to select your local timezone (e.g., "America/New_York", "Europe/London", "UTC") to ensure the candle is always correctly identified.
Asset Presets: Instantly set the correct start time for major asset classes:
Forex (23:00)
Indices (00:00)
Crypto (21:00)
Fully Custom: A "Custom" option lets you define any hour and minute for the start of your session, giving you full control for other assets like Gold or Oil.
Custom Colors: Change the color of the high and low lines from the settings menu.
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Open the indicator's "Settings".
In the "Your Timezone" dropdown, select the same timezone you use for your chart (e.g., "America/New_York").
In the "Asset Type Preset" dropdown, choose the asset you are trading (e.g., "Indices").
The indicator will wait for the first 4-hour candle (e.g., the 00:00 candle for Indices) to close, and then it will automatically draw the high and low lines.

LucciThis indicator identifies trade setups based on session liquidity levels and price structure analysis during New York trading sessions.
Unlike basic support/resistance indicators, this system tracks untested session extremes and monitors their interaction with price. It combines break-and-retest mechanics with bounce detection at key liquidity zones, providing multiple entry methodologies within a single framework.
METHODOLOGY:
The system maps high/low points from each trading session (Asia: 6PM-3AM, London: 3AM-8AM, NY: 8AM-5PM EST) and monitors price behavior around these levels. It identifies two primary setup types: momentum continuation after level breaks and reversal bounces at untested extremes. Visual differentiation shows which levels remain untested (darker) versus swept levels (lighter).
SETUP IDENTIFICATION:
Break & Retest Signals:
- Detects breaks of NY Open range (15-minute candle at 8:00 AM EST)
- Waits minimum bars after break before validating retest
- Triggers when price returns to level within tolerance zone
Bounce Signals:
- Identifies approaches to untested session highs/lows
- Optional wick confirmation for reversal validation
- Signals when price rejects from liquidity zone
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS:
Entry Parameters:
- Min Bars After Break: 1-10 (delay before retest valid)
- Retest Tolerance: 0.1-10 points (precision of level test)
- Bounce Zone: 0.5-5 points (distance from level)
- Wick Confirmation: On/off reversal filter
Risk Management:
- Risk Reward Options: 1:3, 1:5, or Custom (1:1 to 1:10)
- Stop Loss: Configurable in points
- Max Daily Signals: 1-5 trade limiter
- Trading Hours: Customizable active window
Visual Elements:
- Session Levels: Orange (Asian), Yellow (London), Blue (NY)
- Signal Markers: Triangles (B&R), Diamonds (Bounce)
- TP/SL Lines: Automatic calculation and display
- Info Table: Shows bias, untested levels, daily signals
OPTIMAL USAGE:
Trading Windows:
- 9:30-11:00 AM EST: Primary trading window
- First touch of untested levels: Highest probability
- 15-minute timeframe: Recommended for futures
- Volume filter: Optional quality enhancement
Signal Prioritization:
- Untested levels provide stronger reactions
- Multiple confirmations increase probability
- Respect market structure and session context
- Combine with volume for filtering
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
- Multi-timeframe: Uses 15-minute data for NY Open
- Session-based: Resets levels at session transitions
- Alert system: Detailed messages with levels
- Position tracking: Manages active trades visually
IMPORTANT NOTES:
This tool maps liquidity zones based on session extremes and price structure. No trading system guarantees profits. Combine with market context and proper risk management. Designed for active intraday trading on liquid instruments.
The indicator provides objective level identification while requiring trader discretion for optimal results.
iFVG Ultimate+ | DodgysDDOVERVIEW
iFVG Ultimate+ | DodgysDD is a professional-grade visualization framework that automates the identification and management of Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs)
It is designed for analysts and educators studying institutional price behavior, liquidity dynamics, and displacement-based imbalances.
This indicator does not provide trading signals or forecasts.
All logic serves educational and analytical purposes only.
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) appears when strong directional displacement prevents candle bodies from overlapping.When a liquidity sweep occurs and price later closes through that gap, the imbalance is considered inverted. This often marks a shift in order-flow.
iFVG Ultimate+ tracks these transitions using a rule-based sequence:
Liquidity Sweep – Price sweeps a previous swing high or low.
Displacement – Body-to-body gap forms as price accelerates away.
Inversion – Full candle body closes through the gap after raid.
Validation and Tracking – Confirmed inversions are stored and managed until completion or invalidation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PURPOSE AND SCOPE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The framework serves as a research tool to document and analyze IFVG behavior within liquidity and session contexts.
It is commonly used to:
-Record and journal IFVG formations for back-testing and model study.
-Assess how often gaps complete or invalidate after sweeps.
-Evaluate session-based patterns (London, Asia, New York).
-Overlay HTF PD Arrays to observe inter-timeframe delivery.
-Receive custom alerts to your phone
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGIC STRUCTURE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
iFVG Ultimate+ runs a five-stage validation process to ensure sequential, non-repainting behavior.
Liquidity Framework:
• Detects swing highs and lows on aligned timeframes (automatic or manual selection).
• Logs session highs/lows for Asia (20:00–00:00 NY) and London (02:00–05:00 NY).
• Includes data wicks around 08:30 NY for event reference.
FVG Detection and Displacement Filter:
• Identifies body-based imbalances using ATR-scaled sensitivity modes (Sensitive / Normal / Strict).
• Supports “Single” or “Series” modes to merge adjacent gaps.
• Excludes weak displacements using minimum ATR thresholds.
Inversion Validation:
• Confirms only when a complete candle body closes through a qualifying FVG within a user-defined window (6 or 15 bars).
• Duplicate detections are ignored; mitigation states are recorded.
HTF Context Integration:
• Maps higher-time-frame PD Arrays and tracks their delivery status.
• Labels active zones (e.g. “H4 PDA”) and updates on HTF close.
Model Lifecycle and Limits:
• Plots the inversion line and derives educational limit levels: Break-Even and Stop-Loss.
• Tracks until opposing liquidity is swept (model complete) or an invalidation event occurs.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMPONENTS AND VISUALS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-IFVG Line — Marks confirmed inversion at close.
-Break-Even / Stop-Loss Lines — Calculated retrospectively for journal grading.
-Session High/Low Markers — London and Asia reference levels.
-Data Wicks — 8:30 NY “DATA.H/L” labels for event volatility.
-SMTs — Compares current symbol to correlated instrument for divergence confirmation.
-Checklist Panel — Tracks liquidity, momentum, HTF delivery, and SMT conditions.
-Setup Grade Display — Computes qualitative score (A+ to C) based on met conditions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INPUT CATEGORIES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General — Detection mode, ATR strictness, bias filter, long/short window.
Liquidity — Automatic or manual timeframe alignment, session visuals.
FVG — Color themes, label sizes, inversion color change, HTF inclusion.
Entry / Limits — Enable or hide Entry, Break-Even, and Stop-Loss levels.
Alerts — Individual toggles for IFVG formation, session sweeps, multi-TF inversions, and invalidations.
Display — Info Box, relationship table, and grade styling.
All alerts output plain text messages only and do not execute orders.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALERT FRAMEWORK
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When enabled, alerts may notify for:
-Potential inversion detected.
-Confirmed IFVG formation.
-Liquidity sweeps (high/low or session).
-Multi-time-frame inversion.
-Invalidation or close warning.
-Alerts serve as educational markers only, not trade triggers.
The user will have the ability to create custom messages for each of these alert events.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USAGE GUIDELINES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
iFVG Ultimate+ is suited for review and documentation of displacement-based price behavior.
Recommended educational workflows:
-Annotate IFVG events and review delivery into PD Arrays.
-Analyze frequency by session or timeframe.
-Assess how often IFVGs complete versus invalidate.
-Teach ICT-style liquidity mechanics in mentorship or training contexts.
-The indicator works across forex, futures, and crypto markets.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATIONAL NOTES AND LIMITATIONS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-HTF calculations finalize on bar close (no look-ahead).
-ATR filter strength affects small-gap visibility.
-Session windows use New York time.
-Break-Even and Stop-Loss lines are visual aids only.
-Performance depends on chart density and bar count.
-No strategy module or backtest engine is included.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORIGINALITY AND PROTECTION
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
iFVG Ultimate+ | DodgysDD integrates multiple independent systems into a single engine:
-PD Array context alignment with liquidity tracking.
-Dynamic session detection and macro data integration.
-Sequential IFVG validation pipeline with grade assignment.
-Multi-time-frame SMT confirmation module.
-Structured alerts and mitigation tracking.
The logic is entirely original, written in Pine v6, and protected as invite-only to preserve methodology integrity.

ICT Sessions With BOS [TradeWithRon]
WITH BOS
This version includes BOS with filter for each session.
NONE,FVG,CISD Filter preset
you can choose how many BOS per session, style etc.
ICT Sessions and killzones maps three intraday sessions on your chart (Asia, London, NY), tracks each session’s live high/low, draws optional session range boxes, and projects ICT OTE zones in real time—with granular styling, touch/mitigation logic, and alerting.
What it does
*Live Session high/low tracking.
Historical session lines:
When a session ends, its final High/Low are preserved as tracked lines (with optional labels) for a configurable number of recent sessions.
Session boxes (ranges):
Draws a shaded box from session start to end that expands with new highs/lows. Limit how many recent boxes remain on chart.
ICT OTE zones (live):
For the currently active session, projects user-defined Fibonacci OTE levels (e.g., 61.8%, 70.5%, 78.6) between the session’s running high and low. Zones update tick-by-tick and can show labels. You can retain a history of recent sessions’ OTE levels.
snapshot
Break visualization (mitigation):
Optionally color the bar when price breaks a stored session High/Low. You can:
Require a body close through the level (vs. any touch)
Auto-remove the line and/or label on touch/close
Use custom break colors per session and side (high/low)
Timestamps:
Add up to two recurring vertical timestamp markers (e.g., 08:00, 09:30), plus an opening horizontal marker (e.g., 09:30) with label that extends until the next occurrence.
Alerts:
Built-in alerts for:

How it works (under the hood)
Detects session state via input.session() windows in the chosen timezone.
Live session High/Low lines and labels update in real time; on session end, final levels are stored with optional labels and tracked length.
OTE zones are live-computed from current session High↔Low and refreshed every bar; a compact rolling history is enforced.
Bar coloring reacts to break events (touch or body-close, per your setting) and uses session-specific colors when enabled.
Timestamp lines/labels are created on each occurrence and trimmed to a drawing limit for performance.
Tips:
To hide session lines but keep boxes, set line color opacity to 0.
Use Timeframe Limit to keep higher-TF charts clean.
Fine-tune OTE Levels and History to balance clarity and performance.
For stricter break logic, enable Require Body Close.
Note: The script reserves high limits for lines/labels/boxes to keep recent context visible while managing cleanup automatically. Adjust “Session Number” and “Number Of Boxes” to suit your workflow.

calcPsyLevels(oneWeekMillis, showPsylevels, psyType, sydDST)
calculate the psy levels
4 hour res based on how mt4 does it
mt4 code
int Li_4 = iBarShift(NULL, PERIOD_H4, iTime(NULL, PERIOD_W1, Li_0)) - 2 - Offset;
ObjectCreate("PsychHi", OBJ_TREND, 0, Time , iHigh(NULL, PERIOD_H4, iHighest(NULL, PERIOD_H4, MODE_HIGH, 2, Li_4)), iTime(NULL, PERIOD_W1, 0), iHigh(NULL, PERIOD_H4,
iHighest(NULL, PERIOD_H4, MODE_HIGH, 2, Li_4)));
so basically because the session is 8 hours and we are looking at a 4 hour resolution we only need to take the highest high an lowest low of 2 bars
we use the gmt offset to adjust the 0000-0800 session to Sydney open which is at 2100 during dst and at 2200 otherwize. (dst - spring foward, fall back)
keep in mind sydney is in the souther hemisphere so dst is oposite of when london and new york go into dst
Parameters:
oneWeekMillis (simple int) : a constant value
showPsylevels (simple bool) : should psy levels be calculated
psyType (simple string) : the type of Psylevels - crypto or forex
sydDST (bool) : is Sydney in DST

ICT Time Based Liquidity Levels [Mariinus]Indicator Overview – Inspired by ICT Concepts
This indicator helps you spot where liquidity rests and where major price moves are likely to begin or end — giving you clarity for both entries and exits.
Inspired by the teachings of the Inner Circle Trader (ICT), this tool builds on his philosophies and principles that have reshaped how traders view price action. One of the most powerful lessons that stuck with me personally is his quote:
"Time & Price, where it is Time first and then Price”
Another fundamental concept that underpins this tool is the idea that:
"Price is constantly moving in cycles from Premium to Equilibrium, from Equilibrium to Discount from Discount back to Premium."
With these core ideas in mind, this indicator was developed to help traders who are already using an ICT-based framework and focus on Kill Zones and by this on Time Based Liquidity.
In addition to plotting Session Highs and Lows on your chart, the ICT Time Based Liquidity Levels indicator also includes derived levels that provide deeper market insight. These include the Equilibrium of the full Session Range (High to Low) as well as the Equilibrium of the Wicks – offering a more nuanced view of price balance and potential turning points, in line with ICT’s core concepts.
To make sure your chart is not cluttered with lines, you can select which levels to show – and more importantly – you can plot Session Candles next to your Chart. Unlike standard time-based candles (e.g. 4H candles), these are “true” Session Candles that reflect the actual OHLC of trading Sessions, making it easier and clearer to see how Sessions interact with each other.
Next to Intraday Highs and Lows, the indicator will also plot Daily and Weekly Liquidity Pools above and below the Market, giving you insights to where Price is most likely heading towards.
You can set Alerts that trigger whenever one of these key levels is tagged, so you stay focused without staring at the screen all day.
⚠️ Important Disclaimer:
This is not a standalone trading plan.
This is not a buy or sell signal generator.
Instead, this tool is designed to support traders who follow ICT principles by helping them identify higher-probability PD Arrays – the key levels where setups are more likely to occur. If your trading plan includes looking for specific PD Arrays and structural frameworks taught by ICT, then this indicator is a visual aid to refine and focus your attention on the areas where your framework has a higher probability of playing out.
⚙️ Explanation of the Settings
You can combine up to 6 Sessions to monitor their respective levels while operating on a lower timeframe. You can define the timings and a long and short naming of those Sessions.
In the Days Section you can Set a lookback period to control how far back you want to calculate levels. Next to that you can select which Daily and or Weekly Levels you want to have shown on your Charts together with choosing their coloring, style and width.
In the Candles Section you can define how the Session Candles will look like which are plotted next to your Chart. When you have multiple Days of Session Candles it can come in handy to mirror image the Candles which will plot the Candles from right to left instead of the default left to right. In addition you can control how far the distance is between the Candles and your chart, the distance between Candles and Days and the thickness of those Candles. Next you can show or hide the Equilibrium of the total Session Range and the Equilibrium of the Wicks.
In the Lines Section you can specify which Session Levels you want to see on your Chart together with choosing their coloring, style and width.
In the Labels Section you can specify which Labels you want to show and how you want to show them.
In the Openings Section you can specify to show the Midnight Open and or Weekly Open. In addition you can add a divider to be able to distinguish between multiple Days or Weeks.
In the Alert Section you can specify for which Sessions you want to get notified when Key Levels are tagged. After setting this up, you need to set an alert via the Tradingview Alert function to really activate the Alert Function. Be aware that when you change your Alert setup, you need to setup the Tradingview Alert function again.

Killzones SMT + IFVG detectorKillzones SMT + IFVG Detector
Summary
This strategy implements a specific intraday workflow inspired by ICT-style concepts.
It combines:
Killzone session levels (recording untouched highs/lows)
SMT divergence between NQ and ES (exclusive sweep logic)
IFVG confirmation (3-bar imbalance + width filter + inversion guard)
and an optional smart exit engine
The components are not simply mashed together: they interact in sequence.
A setup only confirms if all conditions line up (time window → untouched level sweep → divergence → valid IFVG → confirmation candle → risk filter).
Workflow
Killzones & session levels
Tracks highs/lows inside default killzones (19:00–23:00, 01:00–04:00, 08:30–10:00, 11:00–12:00, 12:30–15:00, chart timezone).
Stores untouched levels forward; sweeps trigger candidate signals.
SMT divergence (exclusive sweep)
Bullish SMT : one index sweeps its low while the other remains above its session low.
Bearish SMT : one index sweeps its high while the other remains below its session high.
Detection supports “Sweep (Cross)” or “Exact Tick.”
Session IDs are tracked so once a side has fired, later re-touches can’t re-trigger .
IFVG confirmation
Locks the first valid 3-bar IFVG after SMT.
Confirmation requires a candle close beyond the IFVG boundary in the direction of the close.
IFVGs must meet a minimum width filter (default 1.0 point).
Inversion guard: ignores IFVGs already inverted before SMT.
Optional “re-lock” keeps tracking the latest IFVG until confirmation/expiry.
Smart exit engine
Initial stop from opposite wick (+ buffer).
Fixed TP (default 40 points).
Dynamic stop escalation at progress thresholds (BE → 50% → 80% of target).
Safety gates
Weekend lockout (Fri 16:40 → Sun 18:00).
Same-bar sweep of high & low cancels setups.
Max initial stop filter skips oversized setups.
Optional cooldown bars.
Alerts
SMT Bullish/Bearish : divergence detected this bar.
Confirm Long/Short : IFVG confirmation triggered.
Default Strategy Properties (used in screenshots/backtests)
Initial capital: $25,000
Order size: 1 contract
Commission: $1.25 per contract per side
Slippage: 2 ticks
Backtest window: Jun 16, 2025 – Sep 14, 2025
These settings are intentionally conservative. If you change them, your results will differ.
How to use
Apply on an NQ or ES futures chart (1–5 min).
Choose your killzones and detection mode.
Select confirmation symbol (NQ, ES, or “Sweeper”).
Enable/disable IFVG re-lock.
Review signals and use alerts for automation if desired.
Limitations
Strict filters reduce trade count; extend backtest window for more samples.
Works best on NQ/ES; not validated elsewhere.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
This is an educational tool ; not financial advice.
