SMART RSISimilar to RSI in concept, but with a few enhancements!
Improvements over the standard RSI indicator?
1. Adaptive Decision Boundaries:
Who says 70-30 are the best decision boundaries to use for trading off of the RSI indicator? Why not 80-20, or another combination? Is 70-30 still the best when you shorten or lengthen the RSI indicator's look-back window? What about when you change the time frame? I wondered this for a while too, and thats what inspired me to create this indicator! Instead of using fixed lines for the boundaries, the boundaries are calculated based off of a user specified percentile. What this means is that the reference lines are calculated by looking at the values the RSI indicator took over some look back window, and calculating an upper and lower bound where the RSI actually stayed n% of the time over that look-back window. The default parameter given for this argument is 90. What that means is over the last n days, the RSI indicator spent 90% of it's time between the upper and lower bound.
2. Smoothing The RSI Indicator:
The RSI indicator on smaller time windows tends to be very noisy. However a simple linear regression over a short time period on the RSI indicator helps to cancel out this noise without losing too much information. This makes cross-overs more meaningful as they are less likely to happen due to small deviations. In addition, it also paints a smoothed picture of the price momentum that is easy and pleasant to read. The reference lines are also smoothed.
3. Color Coding Crosses When They Happen!
Wouldn't it be great if your software highlights cross overs when they happen for you so you would not have to go back over your chart and identify it for yourself? Well this software does! It paints red behind the indicator when the RSI indicator goes above the upper reference line, and paints blue when the RSI goes below the lower reference line.
The default parameters were selected based on what I feel is useful for daily candles on BTCUSD. However you are free to change the parameters as you see fit for different securities and time frames.

This FVG indicator allowed for overlapping, and invalidated FVGs to remain as the existence of Inversion Fair Value Gaps exists and, in my recent experience, has been incredibly useful finding new levels of support and resistance, even inside a currently FVG, the "invalidated" FVGs can still have an impact on price trend and react to it.

Imbalance indicator (Multi-TimeFrame)(USA) Imbalance Indicator (Multi-TimeFrame) is an indicator designed to visualize the imbalance between two adjacent candles on a chart by drawing rectangles. It helps identify the dominance of buyers or sellers during the price's impulsive movement in an uptrend or downtrend.
Here's how the indicator works:
It determines the trend direction (up or down) based on the closing prices of the last three candles. An uptrend is identified if all three candles closed above their openings, and a downtrend if they closed below.
Depending on the trend direction, the indicator calculates the imbalance between candles. The imbalance is expressed as the difference between the low of the next candle and the high of the previous candle for an uptrend or the low of the previous candle and the high of the next candle for a downtrend. The imbalance value should be greater than 0.
When an imbalance is detected, the indicator draws a rectangle on the chart. The rectangle starts at the candle with the detected imbalance, the upper border is at the top of the imbalance, and the lower border is at the bottom of the imbalance.
The color of the rectangle depends on the trend direction: green for an uptrend and red for a downtrend.
The rectangle continues dynamically to the right until it is intersected by the next candles by 50% or more (by default). The intersection can occur in various combinations (shadow, body, or shadow + body of the candle). Once this happens, the rectangle ends on the last overlapping candle. The height overlap percentage is adjustable in the range of 1 to 100, with a default value of 50%.
Use the Imbalance Indicator to identify potential price reversal zones. Algorithms aim to cover the imbalance and trade the range in which it formed, representing a potential magnet for the price.
In the multi-timeframe version of the indicator, along with the current timeframe, rectangles from timeframes: 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and 1 day are displayed by default (and can be adjusted in settings). Other timeframes (e.g., 1 week and 1 month or 30 minutes) can be selected in the settings.
You can activate/deactivate the display of imbalances from different timeframes of your choice by setting the corresponding checkbox.
Additionally, rectangles from different timeframes have different default levels of transparency, decreasing with increasing timeframe.
Frames on additional timeframes are disabled by default in transparency settings; adjust as needed in color settings.
Like in the previous version, you can customize the color scheme of rectangles for each timeframe individually.
Information display about timeframes other than the current one on imbalances is available and can be disabled in settings for each timeframe individually.
For your convenience, in the buyers' interest zone, a label is placed at 50% of the rectangle's width, spanning 3 candles. Now you can set a limit order right at the label without relying on Fibonacci retracements.
(RUS) Imbalance indicator (Multi-TimeFrame) - это индикатор, предназначенный для визуализации имбаланса между двумя соседними свечами на графике путем рисования прямоугольников. Он помогает определить доминирование покупателей или продавцов во время импульсного движение цены на восходящем или нисходящем тренде.
Вот как работает индикатор:
Он определяет направление тренда (вверх или вниз) на основе закрытия последних трех свечей. Тренд вверх определяется, если все три свечи закрылись выше своих открытий, а тренд вниз - если ниже.
В зависимости от направления тренда, индикатор вычисляет имбаланс между свечами. Имбаланс выражается в виде разницы между низом следующей свечи и верхом предыдущей свечи для восходящего тренда или между низом предыдущей свечи и верхом следующей свечи для нисходящего тренда. Значение имбаланса должно быть больше 0.
Если имбаланс обнаружен, индикатор рисует прямоугольник на графике. Прямоугольник начинается на свече с найденным имбалансом, верхняя граница прямоугольника находится на верхней границе имбаланса, а нижняя граница - на нижней границе имбаланса.
Цвет прямоугольника зависит от направления тренда: зеленый для восходящего тренда и красный для нисходящего тренда.
Прямоугольник продолжается вправо динамически, пока его не пересекут следующие свечи на 50% или более (по умолчанию). Пересечение может произойти различными комбинациями (тень, тело или тень + тело свечи). Как только это происходит, прямоугольник заканчивается на последней перекрывающей его свече. Процент перекрытия по высоте настраивается в интервале от 1 до 100, по умолчанию значение 50%.
Используйте Imbalance Indicator для определения зон вероятного возврата цены. Алгоритмы стремятся перекрыть имбаланс и проторговать диапазон, в котором он образовался, это потенциальный магнит для цены.
В мульти-таймфреймной версии индикатора, наряду с текущим таймфреймом, при первом запуске (и до момента, пока вы не измените это в настройках), отображаются прямоугольники с таймфреймов:
15 минут,
1 час,
4 часа,
1 день.
При этом другие таймфреймы (например 1 неделя и 1 месяц или 30 минут) можно выбрать в настройках.
Вы можете активировать/деактивировать отображение имбалансов с разных таймфреймов по вашему выбору, установив соответствующую галочку.
Кроме того, прямоугольники с разных таймфреймов по умолчанию имеют различную степень прозрачности, которая уменьшается по мере увеличения таймфрейма
Рамки на дополнительных таймфреймах, по умолчанию отключены настройками прозрачности, при необходимости измените это в настройках цвета.
Как и в предыдущей версии, вы можете настраивать под себя цветовую схему прямоугольников, причём для каждого таймфрейма в отдельности.
На имбалансах с отличных от текущего таймфреймов, доступно отображение информации о таймфрейме, данная опция отключается в настройках для каждого таймфрейма в отдельности.
Для вашего удобства, в зоне интереса покупателей, на 50% прямоугольника сделана метка шириною в 3 свечи, теперь не нужно натигивать фибо, можете сразу выставить лимитку по метке.
SMC Structures and FVGThe SMC Structures and FVG indicator allows the user to easily identify trend continuations (Break Of Structure) or trend changes (CHange Of CHaracter) on any time frame. In addition, it display all FVG areas, whether they are bullish, bearish, or even mitigated.
Fair Value Gap :
The FVG process shows every bullish, bearish or even mitigated FVG liquidity area. When a FVG is fully mitigated it will directly be removed of the chart.
There is an history of FVG to show. By selecting specific number of FVG to show in the chart, the user can focus its analysis on lasts liquidity area.
Here's the rules for FVG color :
Green when it's a bullish FVG and has not been mitigated
Red when it's a bearish FVG and has not been mitigated
Gray when the bullish / bearish FVG has been mitigated
Removed when the FVG has been fully mitigated
Structures analysis:
The Structure process show BOS in grey lines and CHoCH in yellow lines. It shows to the user the lasts price action pattern.
The blue lines are the high value and the low value of the current structure.
SMC RulesThis script allowes you to have a plan always shown on the chart.
You know how it is, sometimes you miss things and if you dont see your plan then you miss maybe an important part... so for this i wrote that simple script here.
So far it has 5 Sections you can edit in the settings to your liking.
On top you can also edit the swing structure you are seeing, so you dont have to always swap timeframes.
Also implemented are the Session times for Frankfurt, London, New York and Asia.
Its not enabled on default, but i find it quiet handy to have..
(including alerts)
I will update it from time to time, if you wish for something just let me know.
PRO Strategy 3TP (v2.1.1)
English Version
PRO Strategy 3TP (v2.1.1) — Comprehensive Guide for TradingView
Strategy Concept & Uniqueness
The PRO Strategy 3TP is a trading system designed to follow market trends using a combination of tools that check trends across different timeframes, measure momentum, and manage risks smartly. Its standout feature is a three-step profit-taking system (hence "3TP") and its ability to adjust to market ups and downs, helping traders make the most of strong trends while keeping losses low in choppy markets.
Why It’s Special:
✅ Three Profit Levels: Takes profit in stages—33% at the first target (TP1), 33% at the second (TP2), and 34% at the third (TP3)—so you lock in gains gradually.
✅ Risk-Free After TP1: Once the first profit target is hit, the stop-loss moves to your entry price, meaning no more risk on the trade.
✅ Smarter Signals: Uses data from a higher timeframe (like 1-hour) to filter out false moves on your chart (like 15-minutes).
How It Works
The strategy uses four main tools to decide when to enter and exit trades. Here’s what they do in simple terms:
Trend Tools (EMA, HMA, SMA)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): A line that tracks the price trend, reacting quickly to recent changes. Think of it as a fast guide to where the market’s heading.
Default: EMA 100 (looks at the last 100 bars).
HMA (Hull Moving Average): A smoother, faster-moving line that spots trend shifts earlier than most averages.
Default: HMA 50 (looks at the last 50 bars).
SMA (Simple Moving Average): A basic average of prices over time, great for seeing the big picture (bull or bear market).
Default: SMA 200 (looks at the last 200 bars).
How It Helps: These lines work together to make sure the trend is real across short, medium, and long terms.
Momentum Tool (CCI)
CCI (Commodity Channel Index): Tells you if the market is “overbought” (too high, ready to drop) or “oversold” (too low, ready to rise).
Buy when CCI < -100 (oversold).
Sell when CCI > +100 (overbought).
How It Helps: It picks the best moments to jump into a trade when prices are at extremes.
Trend Strength Tool (ADX)
ADX (Average Directional Index): Measures how strong a trend is. Higher numbers mean a stronger trend.
Default: ADX > 26 (only trades when the trend is strong enough).
How It Helps: Keeps you out of flat, boring markets where prices don’t move much.
Volatility Tool (ATR)
ATR (Average True Range): Shows how much the price typically moves up or down. It’s like a ruler for market “wiggle room.”
Default: ATR over 19 bars, used to set stop-loss (5x ATR) and profit targets (1x, 1.3x, 1.7x ATR).
How It Helps: Adjusts your trade exits based on how wild or calm the market is.
Entry Rules
Buy (Long): Price is above EMA, HMA, and SMA (checked on a higher timeframe) + CCI < -100 + ADX > 26.
Sell (Short): Price is below EMA, HMA, and SMA + CCI > +100 + ADX > 26.
Exit Rules
Stop-Loss: Set at 5x ATR away from your entry (e.g., if ATR is 10 points, stop-loss is 50 points away).
Breakeven: After TP1 is hit, stop-loss moves to your entry price—no more risk!
Profit Targets:
TP1: 1x ATR (closes 33% of your position).
TP2: 1.3x ATR (closes 33%).
TP3: 1.7x ATR (closes 34%).
Why This Mix Works
Fewer Mistakes: Checking trends on multiple timeframes cuts out 60-70% of bad signals (based on tests).
Adapts to the Market: ATR adjusts your stops and targets as the market changes—super useful for volatile assets like crypto.
Balanced Wins: The three-step profit system locks in gains early but lets you ride big trends too.
Setup Guide
Settings for Different Styles
Parameter Scalping (1-15M) Swing (1H-4H) Position (Daily)
EMA/HMA/SMA 50/20/Off 100/50/200 Off/Off/200
ADX Threshold 20 26 25
ATR Multipliers SL=3x, TP3=2x SL=5x SL=6x
Position Size
Formula: Contracts = Risk Amount / (Stop-Loss Distance × Value per Point)
Example: Risking $100, stop-loss is 50 points, each point = $2 → Trade 1 contract.
Multi-Timeframe Tip
Chart: 15-minute
Indicators: 1-hour
Rule: Only trade if the 15-minute price matches the 1-hour trend.
Why Use It?
Proven Results: 58-62% win rate on assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and S&P 500 (tested 2020-2023). Risk-to-reward ratio of 1.8-2.3.
Saves Time: Alerts tell you when to enter or exit—no need to watch the screen all day.
Flexible: Works for fast scalping, medium swing trades, or long-term positions.
FAQ
Why no trailing stop?
Trailing stops cut profits by 15-20% in tests because they exit too early. The breakeven stop protects your money better.
What about news events?
Use a bigger ATR (e.g., 50) and wider stop-loss (6x ATR) when markets get crazy.
Can I trade forex?
Yes! Try EMA=50, HMA=20, ATR=14 on EUR/USD 15-minute charts.
Risk Management
Risk per Trade: Stick to 1-2% of your account.
Weekly Check: Adjust ATR and stop-loss every Friday to match market conditions.
Emergency Plan: Manually move your stop-loss if something wild (like a “black swan” event) happens.
⚠️ Warning: Trading is risky. This strategy doesn’t promise profits. Always use a stop-loss.
Русская версия
Стратегия PRO 3TP (v2.1.1) — Полное руководство для TradingView
Концепция и уникальность
PRO Strategy 3TP — это система, которая следует за трендами на рынке, используя проверку трендов на разных таймфреймах, измерение импульса и умное управление рисками. Главная фишка — трехступенчатая фиксация прибыли (поэтому "3TP") и адаптация к изменениям на рынке, чтобы зарабатывать больше в сильных трендах и терять меньше в нестабильные времена.
Почему она особенная:
✅ Три уровня прибыли: Закрывает 33% на первом уровне (TP1), 33% на втором (TP2) и 34% на третьем (TP3) — прибыль фиксируется постепенно.
✅ Без риска после TP1: После первого уровня стоп-лосс сдвигается на точку входа — дальше риска нет.
✅ Умные сигналы: Использует данные с более старшего таймфрейма (например, 1 час) для фильтрации шума на вашем графике (например, 15 минут).
Как это работает
Стратегия использует четыре основных инструмента для входа и выхода из сделок. Вот что они значат простыми словами:
Инструменты тренда (EMA, HMA, SMA)
EMA (Экспоненциальная скользящая средняя) : Линия, которая следит за трендом и быстро реагирует на последние цены. Это как быстрый указатель направления рынка.
По умолчанию: EMA 100 (смотрит на последние 100 баров).
HMA (Скользящая средняя Халла): Более плавная и быстрая линия, которая раньше замечает смену тренда.
По умолчанию: HMA 50 (смотрит на последние 50 баров).
SMA (Простая скользящая средняя) : Просто средняя цена за период, показывает общую картину (быки или медведи).
По умолчанию: SMA 200 (смотрит на последние 200 баров).
Зачем это нужно: Эти линии вместе проверяют, что тренд настоящий на коротких, средних и длинных периодах.
Инструмент импульса (CCI)
CCI (Индекс товарного канала): Показывает, когда рынок “перекуплен” (слишком высоко, готов упасть) или “перепродан” (слишком низко, готов расти).
Покупка: CCI < -100 (перепродан).
Продажа: CCI > +100 (перекуплен).
Зачем это нужно: Помогает выбрать лучшее время для входа, когда цены на крайних значениях.
Инструмент силы тренда (ADX)
ADX (Индекс среднего направленного движения): Измеряет, насколько силен тренд. Чем выше число, тем сильнее движение.
По умолчанию: ADX > 26 (торгуем, только если тренд сильный).
Зачем это нужно: Не дает торговать, когда рынок стоит на месте и скучный.
Инструмент волатильности (ATR)
ATR (Средний истинный диапазон): Показывает, насколько сильно цена обычно “гуляет” вверх-вниз. Это как линейка для рыночных колебаний.
По умолчанию: ATR за 19 баров, стоп-лосс = 5x ATR, цели прибыли = 1x, 1.3x, 1.7x ATR.
Зачем это нужно: Настраивает выход из сделки в зависимости от того, насколько рынок спокоен или хаотичен.
Правила входа
Покупка (Лонг): Цена выше EMA, HMA и SMA (проверяется на старшем таймфрейме) + CCI < -100 + ADX > 26.
Продажа (Шорт): Цена ниже EMA, HMA и SMA + CCI > +100 + ADX > 26.
Правила выхода
Стоп-лосс: Устанавливается на 5x ATR от входа (например, если ATR = 10 пунктов, стоп = 50 пунктов).
Безубыток: После TP1 стоп-лосс сдвигается на цену входа — риска больше нет!
Цели прибыли:
TP1: 1x ATR (закрывает 33% позиции).
TP2: 1.3x ATR (закрывает 33%).
TP3: 1.7x ATR (закрывает 34%).
Почему эта комбинация работает
Меньше ошибок: Проверка тренда на разных таймфреймах убирает 60-70% ложных сигналов (по тестам).
Подстраивается под рынок: ATR меняет стопы и цели в зависимости от условий — важно для активов вроде крипты.
Умная прибыль: Трехступенчатая система фиксирует выгоду рано, но оставляет шанс заработать на большом тренде.
Как настроить
Настройки для разных стилей
Параметр Скальпинг (1-15М) Свинг (1H-4H) Долгосрок (Daily)
EMA/HMA/SMA 50/20/Выкл 100/50/200 Выкл/Выкл/200
Порог ADX 20 26 25
Множители ATR SL=3x, TP3=2x SL=5x SL=6x
Размер позиции
Формула: Контракты = Риск / (Расстояние до стоп-лосса × Стоимость пункта)
Пример: Риск $100, стоп-лосс 50 пунктов, 1 пункт = $2 → 1 контракт.
Совет по таймфреймам
График: 15 минут
Индикаторы: 1 час
Правило: Торгуй, только если тренд на 15 минутах совпадает с 1 часом.
Зачем это использовать?
Проверено: 58-62% успешных сделок на BTC, ETH, S&P 500 (тесты 2020-2023). Соотношение риск/прибыль 1.8-2.3.
Экономит время: Оповещения скажут, когда входить и выходить — не надо сидеть у экрана.
Гибкость: Подходит для быстрой торговли, среднесрочной и долгосрочной.
Часто задаваемые вопросы
Почему нет трейлинг-стопа?
Тесты показали, что он снижает прибыль на 15-20%, потому что выходит слишком рано. Безубыток лучше защищает деньги.
Что делать с новостями?
Увеличьте ATR (например, до 50) и стоп-лосс (6x ATR), когда рынок штормит.
Можно торговать форекс?
Да! Используйте EMA=50, HMA=20, ATR=14 для EUR/USD на 15 минутах.
Управление рисками
Риск на сделку: Не больше 1-2% от депозита.
Проверка раз в неделю: Обновляйте ATR и стоп-лосс каждую пятницу под рынок.
План на экстрим: Если происходит что-то необычное (например, “черный лебедь”), вручную двигайте стоп-лосс.
⚠️ Предупреждение: Торговля — это риск. Стратегия не гарантирует прибыль. Всегда ставьте стоп-лосс.
[TehThomas] - ICT SMT DivergencesIntroduction
SMT Divergences is a cutting-edge trading tool designed for traders who utilize Smart Money Techniques (SMT), a core concept in the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. This indicator is specifically built to detect SMT divergences by comparing price action across multiple correlated assets. It helps traders identify institutional activity, liquidity grabs, and inefficiencies in the market, offering valuable insights for high-probability trade setups.
Smart Money Techniques revolve around the idea that institutional traders and large market participants leave behind footprints in the form of price divergences. By analyzing multiple asset pairs simultaneously, this indicator helps traders pinpoint areas where one market structure contradicts another, revealing potential trade opportunities before the majority of retail traders notice them.
What is SMT Divergence?
Smart Money Divergence (SMT) occurs when correlated assets or markets behave differently in key areas of interest. These divergences often indicate market inefficiencies caused by liquidity grabs or institutional order flow. There are two main types of SMT divergences:
1. Bearish SMT Divergence (Smart Money Distribution) 🔴
Occurs when:
One asset makes a higher high, while another correlated asset makes a lower high.
This signals underlying weakness in the price action of the first asset.
Institutions may be offloading positions, preparing for a downward move.
📉 Example: If GBP/USD makes a higher high, but EUR/USD makes a lower high, it indicates potential weakness in GBP/USD and a possible short opportunity.
2. Bullish SMT Divergence (Smart Money Accumulation) 🔵
Occurs when:
One asset makes a lower low, while another correlated asset makes a higher low.
This suggests strength and potential accumulation by institutional traders.
Smart Money may be positioning for a bullish reversal.
📈 Example: If NASDAQ (US100) makes a lower low, but S&P 500 (US500) makes a higher low, it could indicate bullish strength in the stock market, suggesting a possible long trade.
How This Indicator Works
The SMT Divergences automatically identifies and plots SMT divergences on your chart, allowing you to spot hidden market imbalances at a glance.
🔍 Key Features
✅ Compare Up to 4 Assets Simultaneously – Select up to four correlated pairs to compare against the main charted asset.
✅ Automatic Detection of SMT Divergences – The script finds divergences in swing highs and swing lows and visually marks them on the chart.
✅ Customizable Line Styles & Colors – Adjust the appearance of the divergence lines and labels to suit your trading style.
✅ Smart Labeling System – Displays which asset pairs are diverging, making it easy to analyze market conditions.
✅ Works Across Multiple Markets – Use for Forex, Indices, Crypto, and Commodities, giving traders flexibility in different asset classes.
✅ Designed for ICT Traders – Aligns perfectly with other ICT concepts such as Liquidity Zones, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
🛠 Indicator Settings & Customization
The indicator provides various settings to tailor it to your trading preferences:
Pivot Lookback Length: Adjusts how many bars the indicator looks back to determine swing highs/lows.
Symbol Selection: Choose up to four additional assets to compare against your main trading pair.
Divergence Line Colors: Customize the color of bearish (red) and bullish (blue) divergences for better visibility.
Line Styles: Choose between solid, dotted, or dashed lines to highlight divergences in your preferred way.
Label Customization: Modify text color and display preferences for a clean and informative chart layout.
How to Use This Indicator in Your Trading Strategy
This indicator is best used in combination with other ICT concepts to improve confluence and increase trade accuracy. Here’s how you can integrate it into your trading strategy:
🔹 Step 1: Identify SMT Divergences
Wait for bullish or bearish SMT divergences to appear on your chart.
Check if the divergence aligns with key liquidity zones, fair value gaps (FVGs), or order blocks.
🔹 Step 2: Confirm Institutional Activity
Look for liquidity sweeps (stop hunts) before a potential reversal.
If a bearish SMT divergence forms near a major resistance level, it may signal Smart Money selling.
If a bullish SMT divergence forms near a support zone, it could indicate accumulation.
🔹 Step 3: Enter a Trade with Confluence
Combine SMT divergences with market structure shifts to time entries.
Use additional ICT tools like Premium & Discount Arrays, Volume Profile, and Market Maker Models for confirmation.
Set stop-losses above liquidity zones and aim for high-risk reward ratios.
🔹 Step 4: Manage Risk & Take Profits
Always use proper risk management, keeping an eye on liquidity grabs and market sentiment.
Consider taking partial profits at key structural points and letting the rest of the trade run.
Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer for ICT Traders
Traditional retail traders often fail to spot Smart Money footprints, which is why many struggle with false breakouts and liquidity traps. The - ICT SMT Divergences indicator eliminates this problem by providing a clear, visual representation of SMT divergences, allowing traders to track institutional movements in real-time.
🔹 Save Time – No need to manually compare charts; the script does the work for you.
🔹 Improve Accuracy – Get high-probability trade setups by following institutional footprints.
🔹 Enhance Your Trading Edge – Use SMT divergences in combination with liquidity grabs, order blocks, and fair value gaps to refine your strategy.
🔹 Universal Market Compatibility – Works for Forex, Indices, Crypto, Commodities, and even Stocks, giving you flexibility in different markets.
Final Thoughts
The SMT Divergences is a must-have tool for traders who rely on Smart Money Techniques (SMT) and ICT methodologies. By identifying SMT divergences across multiple correlated markets, this indicator provides unparalleled insights into institutional trading behavior and enhances your ability to trade with Smart Money.
Whether you are a day trader, swing trader, or position trader, this indicator will help you make more informed decisions, avoid liquidity traps, and improve your overall profitability.

VIDYA (Chande)This script brings you VIDYA – the Variable Index Dynamic Average, developed by Tushar Chande. It’s not your typical moving average. Unlike the standard SMA or EMA, VIDYA adapts its speed and smoothness based on real-time market momentum using the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO).
Think of it like a moving average that gets faster during strong trends and slows down during sideways or choppy markets — just like how a smart trader would!
🧠 What Makes VIDYA Different?
Traditional moving averages use fixed smoothing, so they lag more during big moves or chop during weak trends.
VIDYA fixes that by adapting its behavior dynamically:
When momentum is strong → VIDYA reacts faster 🚀
When momentum is weak → VIDYA smooths out the noise 🧘
⚙️ How It Works (Explained Simply):
1️⃣ CMO Calculation (Chande Momentum Oscillator):
We look at the past cmoLength candles (default 9) and:
i) Add up all the positive price changes (gains)
ii) Add up all the negative price changes (losses)
iii) Use those to compute a normalized momentum score between -100 and +100
📌 CMO = (Gains - Losses) / (Gains + Losses)
• This gives us a momentum reading that powers the next step.
2️⃣ Dynamic Alpha Smoothing:
• We convert the absolute value of the CMO into an alpha — this is the "speed" of the VIDYA.
📌 Higher momentum = higher alpha → faster response
📌 Lower momentum = lower alpha → smoother behavior
3️⃣ VIDYA Formula:
• Finally, we apply the smoothing:
📌 VIDYA = α × Price + (1 - α) × Previous VIDYA
• This equation continuously adapts to market behavior — trending or ranging.
📊 What’s Plotted?
🟠 The VIDYA Line:
A smooth, responsive line plotted on your price chart that adjusts in real-time with price momentum.
🔎 How to Use It:
✅ Use it like a moving average, but smarter:
• Price > VIDYA and rising → Trend is likely up
• Price < VIDYA and falling → Trend is likely down
• Flat VIDYA = Possible consolidation or sideways market
✅ Combine with:
• Breakout strategies (VIDYA confirms momentum)
• Reversal entries (look for price crossing VIDYA)
• Volatility filters (ignore signals when VIDYA flattens)
🧪 Bonus Tip:
Pair this with a volume indicator (like my Volume Confirmation Bars or Volume Strength Highlight) to confirm whether momentum is backed by real participation or just a fakeout.
📩 Want alerts, dual-timeframe overlays, or VIDYA with other base inputs (like typical price or HLC3)? Let me know — happy to expand this for your setup!
Stay adaptive, not reactive — trade smarter with VIDYA! 🧠📉📈
Hybrid Adaptive Momentum Average (HAMA)Hybrid Adaptive Momentum Average (HAMA)
Imagine you want a moving average line on your chart that's usually smooth but gets really quick to follow the price when the market suddenly makes a big, fast move. That's what HAMA tries to be.
Here's the simple breakdown:
Slightly Better Starting Price: Instead of just using the closing price, HAMA first creates a slightly "smarter" starting price by giving a bit more importance to the very latest prices (like a quick WMA).
Checks Market Speed (Momentum): It then looks at how fast this "smarter price" has been moving recently.
-If the price is shooting up or down quickly, HAMA knows there's strong momentum.
-If the price is just drifting sideways, momentum is low.
Adjusts Its Own Speed: Based on this momentum:
-Strong Momentum (Fast Market): HAMA makes itself "faster." This means its line will stick closer to the current price and react quickly to changes. (It uses a shorter "period" internally).
-Weak Momentum (Slow/Choppy Market): HAMA makes itself "slower." Its line will be smoother and less jumpy, ignoring minor wiggles. (It uses a longer "period" internally).
-Draws the Line: Finally, it calculates and draws the moving average line using this automatically adjusted speed.
Why "Hybrid"?
It's called "hybrid" because it takes bits and pieces of ideas from several standard moving averages:
-Like an EMA, it's built to be responsive.
-Like a WMA, it initially focuses on recent prices.
-Inspired by the HMA, it tries to be smart about detecting momentum to adjust itself.
In a Nutshell:
The HAMA is a custom moving average that tries to be the best of both worlds: smooth in calm markets and quick to react in fast-moving markets by automatically changing its own calculation speed based on price momentum.
Tight Range Display with Background🌟 Tight Range Transparency Display with Background
What Is This Indicator?
Hey traders! Ever wanted a simple way to spot those quiet, low-volatility moments in the market that often signal a big move is coming? The Tight Range Transparency Display with Background does exactly that! This indicator highlights periods where the price is moving in a tight range—think of it as the calm before the storm. It paints the chart background blue to show these zones, with the shade getting darker the tighter the range becomes. It’s like having a visual cue to say, “Hey, something might be brewing here!”
Why You’ll Love It
Spot Key Moments Easily: The blue background makes it super easy to see when the market is in a tight range, which often happens before breakouts or big trends.
Customizable Settings: You can tweak the range thresholds to match your trading style—whether you’re looking for super tight zones or slightly broader ones.
Visual Clarity: The background gets darker when the range is tighter, giving you a quick sense of how compressed the price action is.
Perfect for Any Market: Works on stocks, forex, crypto, or any chart you trade, across any timeframe.
How to Use It
Add It to Your Chart:
Just copy this script into TradingView’s Pine Editor and hit "Add to Chart." It’ll overlay right on your price chart.
Tweak the Settings:
Open the indicator settings and use the dropdown menus to pick your preferred "Tight Range %" and "Wide Range %." For example, set a Tight Range % of 2.0% to catch smaller ranges, or go higher like 10.0% for broader ones.
You can also adjust the ATR Period (default is 5) to make the indicator more or less sensitive to recent price swings.
Watch for the Blue Background:
When the price enters a tight range, the chart background turns blue. The darker the blue, the tighter the range—meaning a potential breakout could be closer!
Trade Smarter:
Use these tight range zones to prepare for potential breakouts. For example, if you see a dark blue background, it might be a good time to watch for a big price move.
Pair this with other tools like support/resistance levels or volume spikes to confirm your trades.
Who Is This For?
Swing Traders: Perfect for spotting consolidation zones before a big swing.
Breakout Traders: Tight ranges often lead to breakouts—use this to time your entries.
Smart Money Followers: If you’re into smart money concepts, tight ranges can signal accumulation or distribution phases.
Beginners & Pros Alike: It’s easy to use for new traders but powerful enough for seasoned pros.
Real-World Example
Imagine you’re trading a stock on a 1-hour chart. You notice the background turns blue, and it’s getting darker over a few bars. This tells you the price range is tightening—maybe the stock is consolidating after a big move. You check your other indicators, see a volume spike, and spot a breakout above resistance. Boom! You catch the next big trend, all because this indicator helped you focus on the right moment.
Tips for Best Results
Try Different Timeframes: Tight ranges on a 15-minute chart might signal short-term moves, while a daily chart could highlight bigger trends.
Adjust for Your Market: For volatile markets like crypto, you might want a higher Tight Range % (e.g., 10.0%). For calmer markets like forex, try a lower setting (e.g., 2.0%).
Combine with Other Tools: Use this alongside trendlines, moving averages, or volume indicators to confirm your setups.
Why I Made This
I created this indicator because I wanted a simple, visual way to spot those critical low-volatility zones without cluttering my chart. The dynamic background color makes it intuitive to see when the market is “coiling up” for a potential move. I hope it helps you find better trading opportunities just like it does for me!

Dskyz (DAFE) Turning Point Indicator - Dskyz (DAFE) Turning Point Indicator — Smart Reversal Signals
Inspired by the intelligent logic of a pervious indicator I saw. This script represents a next-generation reversal detection system—completely re-engineered with cutting-edge filters, adaptive logic, and intelligent dashboards.
The Dskyz (DAFE) Turning Point Indicator
🧠 What Is It?
is designed to identify key market reversal zones with extraordinary accuracy by combining trend direction, volatility confirmation, price action patterns, and smart filtering layers—all visualized in a highly interactive and informative chart overlay.
This isn’t just a signal generator—it’s a decision-making assistant.
⚙️ Inputs & How to Use Them
All input fields are grouped for ease-of-use and explanation:
🔸 Reversal Logic Settings
Source: The price source used for signal generation (default: hlcc4). Can be changed to any standard price formula (open, close, hl2, etc.).
ATR Period: Used for determining volatility and dynamic trailing stop logic.
Supertrend Factor / Period: Calculates directional movement to detect trending vs choppy zones.
Reversal Sensitivity Thresholds: Internal logic filters minor pullbacks from true reversals.
🔸 Filters
Trend Filter: Enables trend-only signals (optional).
Volume Spike Filter: Confirms reversals with significant volume activity.
Volatility Zone Coloring: Visually highlights high-volatility areas to avoid late entries or fakeouts.
Custom High/Low Detection: Smart local top/bottom scanning to reinforce accuracy.
🔸 Visual & Dashboard Options
Signal Labels: Toggle signal labels on the chart.
Color Theme: Choose your visual theme for easier visibility.
Dashboard Toggle: Activate a compact dashboard summarizing strategy health (win rate, drawdown, trend state, volatility).
🧩 Functions Used
ta.supertrend(): Determines trend direction for signal confirmation and filtering.
ta.atr(): Calculates real-time volatility to determine trailing stop exits and visual zones.
ta.rsi() (internally optimized): Helps filter overbought/oversold conditions.
Local High/Low Scanner: Tracks recent pivots using a custom dynamic lookback.
Signal Engine: Consolidates multiple confirmation layers before plotting.
🚀 What Makes It Unique?
Unlike traditional reversal indicators, this one combines:
Multi-factor signal validation: No single indicator makes the call—volume, trend, price action, and volatility all contribute.
Adaptive filtering: The indicator evolves with the market—less noise, smarter signals.
Visual volatility heatmap zones: Avoid entering during uncertainty or manipulation spikes.
Interactive trend dashboard: Immediate insight into the strength and condition of the current market phase.
Highly customizable: Turn features on/off to match your trading style—scalping, swing, or trend-following.
Precision timing: Uses optimized versions of RSI and ATR that adjust automatically with price context.
🧬 Recommended for:
Commodity: Futures, Forex, Crypto
Timeframes: 1m to 1h for active traders. 4h+ for swing trades.
Pair With: Support/resistance zones, Fibonacci levels, and smart money concepts for additional confluence.
🎯 Why It Works
- Traditional reversal signals suffer from lag and noise. This system filters both by:
- Using multi-source confirmation, not just price movement.
-Tracking volatility directly, not assuming static markets.
-Detecting exhaustion, not just divergence.
-Keeping your screen clean, with only the most relevant data shown.
🧾 Credit & Acknowledgement
🧠 Original Concept Inspiration: This project was deeply inspired by the work of Enes_Yetkin_ and their approach to reversal detection. This version expands on the concept with additional technical layers, updated visuals, and real-time adaptability.
📌 Final Thoughts
This is more than a reversal tool. It's a market condition interpreter, entry/exit planner, and risk assistant all in one. Every aspect is engineered to give you an edge—especially when timing means everything.
Use it with discipline. Use it with clarity. Trade smarter.
**I will continue to release incredible strategies and indicators until I turn this into a brand or until someone offers me a contract.

Inner Circle Toolkit [TakingProphets]Inner Circle Toolkit — A Complete ICT Trading Companion
The Inner Circle Toolkit is a closed-source, all-in-one trading tool designed for traders following ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts strategies. Every part of this script is built with purpose — not just a mashup of indicators, but a structured framework to help you follow price through the lens of institutional behavior and liquidity theory.
Let’s walk through what it does and how it can help you:
🕒 Session Liquidity Levels (Asia, London, New York, NY Lunch)
The indicator automatically marks the highs and lows of the major trading sessions:
-Asian Session
-London Session
-New York AM Session
-New York Lunch
These levels are important because price often returns to these points to grab liquidity before making a move. This gives traders clear areas to watch for potential sweeps, rejections, or reversals — without having to manually track session timings every day.
REQHs and REQLs — Equal Highs and Lows
This script detects Relatively Equal Highs and Lows (REQHs/REQLs), which are often used by institutions as stop-run targets.
It’s not just looking for copy-paste double tops or bottoms — it uses a tolerance-based algorithm that checks for clusters of similar highs or lows over a given time period. These are likely to hold stops and become magnets for price. When you see these on the chart, you’ll know where the “juice” is sitting.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) — Multi-Timeframe
The script automatically plots Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on both:
-Your current chart timeframe
-One or more higher timeframes (like H1 or H4)
These are three-candle gaps that form when price moves aggressively without filling in value. Price often comes back to these areas to rebalance. Seeing both local and higher-timeframe FVGs on your chart gives better context and helps with entries and exits.
The script is optimized so your chart doesn’t get messy — higher timeframe FVGs show up in a cleaner format with visual labels and lighter shading.
SMT Divergence — With Session Logic
This tool includes a real-time SMT divergence detector, based on the behavior of correlated markets like ES vs. NQ.
Here’s how it works:
If ES sweeps a liquidity level (like Asia Low), but NQ doesn’t, the script detects and marks that divergence.
This often signals institutional accumulation or distribution — a high-probability setup.
You won’t have to flip between charts or manually compare — the SMT logic runs automatically and only fires when it matters (at key session levels). It’s a smarter, more focused way to track intermarket divergences.
Daily Highs and Lows — Week-to-Week Structure
The indicator keeps track of the high and low for each day of the week — Monday through Friday — helping you understand how price is evolving across the week.
This helps build a weekly profile:
Did Monday set the high of the week?
Are we sweeping Tuesday’s low on Thursday?
These levels stay visible and labeled, helping you frame daily setups inside the bigger picture.
🕛 Midnight Open & 8:30 AM Open Levels
These two levels are core ICT concepts used to judge whether price is in premium or discount:
Midnight Open (00:00 EST): Used to determine daily bias
New York Open (08:30 EST): Often a launch point for key moves
Both are drawn automatically and extend throughout the day. This helps you align your trades with potential algorithmic bias, especially during NY session volatility.
⏰ 9:45 AM Vertical Marker — Macro Time Reminder
The script draws a subtle vertical line at 9:45 AM EST, which is the start of the NY AM macro session — one of the most likely times to see setups play out.
This is more than just a timer — it’s a visual cue that something important might be setting up soon, especially if you’re already watching SMT, FVGs, or liquidity zones from earlier.
How It All Connects — A Workflow, Not a Mashup
Every feature in this script is connected to the same goal: helping you trade with the Smart Money.
Here’s how the pieces work together:
Session levels → potential stop hunts
Equal highs/lows → targets
FVGs → entry points
SMT divergence → confirmation or warning
Daily highs/lows → Weekly structure frames bias
Open levels → premium vs. discount
Macro line → timing clue for execution
It’s built to help you flow with price action and trade the story, not just random signals.
Why It’s Closed Source — and Original
This script is closed-source because it contains:
A proprietary system for real-time SMT logic (with intermarket sweep detection)
Multi-timeframe FVG detection that auto-filters overlaps
Smart equal-high/low detection using range-based clustering
Optimized UI that shows a lot without overwhelming the chart
There are no moving averages, no public-domain indicators, and no mashup of standard tools. Everything here is purpose-built for traders who follow ICT strategies.
Let us know how we can improve!

💡 Framework
The model incorporates multiple timeframe alignments for increased precision and reliability. The following timeframes are utilized for a comprehensive view of the market:
1m - 5m - 1H
2m - 15m - 4H
3m - 20m - 8H
5m - 30m - 12H
15m - 1H - 1D
1H - 4H - 1W
4H - 1D - 1M
1D - 1W - 3M
1W - 1M - 12M
These alignments ensure that the model captures both short-term price movements and longer-term trends, allowing for well-informed decision-making across various market conditions.
The X Model Indicator employs a precise set of conditions for both short and long entries, designed to capture optimal market opportunities based on key price levels, market imbalances, and institutional activity. These conditions combine multiple timeframes, price action patterns, and market sentiment to enhance the accuracy of entry signals.
Here's how each condition works:
Short Entry Conditions:
Previous Day High (ERL): The previous day’s high acts as a significant resistance level for the market. A price rejection or failure to break above this level indicates a potential short opportunity, as the market may reverse or consolidate.
H1 Bullish FVG (IRL): A Bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) on the 1-hour chart highlights an area of price imbalance. This signals that the price may attempt to move back into this gap, providing a high-probability short entry if combined with other bearish signals.
m15 MSS / SMT: On the 15-minute chart, the Momentum Shift (MSS) and Smart Money Tool (SMT) indicators are used to confirm market manipulation or shift in momentum. If these indicators show bearish market activity, they strengthen the case for a short position.
Only Short Above 00:00: To avoid noise from earlier market sessions, the model only triggers short entries after midnight (00:00), ensuring that the trade occurs during a more stable, predictable phase of the trading day.
Long Entry Conditions:
Previous Day Low (ERL): The previous day’s low serves as a support level, marking an area where the price is likely to bounce. If the price pulls back and tests this level, it suggests a high-probability long entry, especially when other indicators align.
H1 Bearish FVG (IRL): A Bearish Fair Value Gap (FVG) on the 1-hour chart shows an imbalance to the downside, where the price may reverse and move upwards. This gap is often seen as an opportunity for the price to return to equilibrium, presenting a favorable long entry.
m15 MSS / SMT: The Momentum Shift (MSS) and Smart Money Tool (SMT) on the 15-minute chart help identify the market’s true intentions. A shift towards bullish momentum or signs of smart money accumulation increases the likelihood of a successful long entry.
Only Long Below 00:00: To focus on the market’s early session dynamics, the model only triggers long entries before midnight (00:00), capturing potential moves during quieter periods when the price can show clearer directional trends.

The Fractal Range Model follows a specific lifecycle, which highlights the current state of the model and determines whether a trade opportunity is valid.
The model's lifecycle includes the following statuses:
Formation (grey)
Invalidation (red)
Success (green)
1. Formation
The Formation phase marks the initial setup of the Fractal Range Model. During this stage, the model identifies and plots key components, such as:
Sweeps: Market movements that indicate a potential reversal or strong shift in trend.
CISD (Change In State of Delivery): A structural change that provides insight into trend shifts.
Once these components are detected, the model automatically calculates and displays Projections and Liquidity Levels , offering insights into potential price action movements.
At this stage, the model also identifies and displays the following key elements:
HTF PD Arrays (Higher-Timeframe Price Delivery Arrays)
LTF PD Arrays (Lower-Timeframe Price Delivery Arrays)
Smart Money Technique (SMT)
If any of these elements are present, they will be automatically displayed on the chart.
2. Invalidation
A Fractal Range Model is considered invalidated when the price does not reach the 2 Standard Deviation level or the first identified liquidity level, and when the price breaks above the high that formed the Sweep.
Invalidation signals that the original setup is no longer reliable, and traders should avoid taking action based on the model's original parameters.
Key invalidation conditions:
Price fails to reach the 2 Standard Deviation level.
Price fails to reach the first liquidity level.
Price breaks the high/low that initiated the Sweep.
A potentially invalidated model is marked with a purple color above the label, indicating the sweep is invalidated by the next candle, but not the high that formed the sweep.
3. Success
A Fractal Range Model is considered successful when the price reaches the 2 Standard Deviation level or the first identified liquidity level. This indicates that the model's predictions align with actual market movements, confirming the setup's validity and providing a potential trading signal.
At this stage, alongside Projections and Liquidity levels, you'll also notice the C-area — the region between the current candle's open and the previous candle's mean. If respected, price action will follow the model's direction.
Key success conditions:
Price reaches the 2 Standard Deviation level.
Price reaches the first liquidity level.
By leveraging these phases, Formation, Invalidation, and Success, traders can effectively manage their positions, minimize risk, and capitalize on high-probability setups based on the Fractal Range Model.

Quarterly Theory ICT 03 [TradingFinder] Precision Swing Points🔵 Introduction
Precision Swing Point (PSP) is a divergence pattern in the closing of candles between two correlated assets, which can indicate a potential trend reversal. This structure appears at market turning points and highlights discrepancies between the price behavior of two related assets.
PSP typically forms in key timeframes such as 5-minute, 15-minute, and 90-minute charts, and is often used in combination with Smart Money Concepts (SMT) to confirm trade entries.
PSP is categorized into Bearish PSP and Bullish PSP :
Bearish PSP : Occurs when an asset breaks its previous high, and its middle candle closes bullish, while the correlated asset closes bearish at the same level. This divergence signals weakness in the uptrend and a potential price reversal downward.
Bullish PSP : Occurs when an asset breaks its previous low, and its middle candle closes bearish, while the correlated asset closes bullish at the same level. This suggests weakness in the downtrend and a potential price increase.
🟣 Trading Strategies Using Precision Swing Point (PSP)
PSP can be integrated into various trading strategies to improve entry accuracy and filter out false signals. One common method is combining PSP with SMT (divergence between correlated assets), where traders identify divergence and enter a trade only after PSP confirms the move.
Additionally, PSP can act as a liquidity gap, meaning that price tends to react to the wick of the PSP candle, making it a favorable entry point with a tight stop-loss and high risk-to-reward ratio. Furthermore, PSP combined with Order Blocks and Fair Value Gaps in higher timeframes allows traders to identify stronger reversal zones.
In lower timeframes, such as 5-minute or 15-minute charts, PSP can serve as a confirmation for more precise entries in the direction of the higher timeframe trend. This is particularly useful in scalping and intraday trading, helping traders execute smarter entries while minimizing unnecessary stop-outs.
🔵 How to Use
PSP is a trading pattern based on divergence in candle closures between two correlated assets. This divergence signals a difference in trend strength and can be used to identify precise market turning points. PSP is divided into Bullish PSP and Bearish PSP, each applicable for long and short trades.
🟣 Bullish PSP
A Bullish PSP forms when, at a market turning point, the middle candle of one asset closes bearish while the correlated asset closes bullish. This discrepancy indicates weakness in the downtrend and a potential price reversal upward.
Traders can use this as a signal for long (buy) trades. The best approach is to wait for price to return to the wick of the PSP candle, as this area typically acts as a liquidity level.
f PSP forms within an Order Block or Fair Value Gap in a higher timeframe, its reliability increases, allowing for entries with tight stop-loss and optimal risk-to-reward ratios.
🟣 Bearish PSP
A Bearish PSP forms when, at a market turning point, the middle candle of one asset closes bullish while the correlated asset closes bearish. This indicates weakness in the uptrend and a potential price decline.
Traders use this pattern to enter short (sell) trades. The best entry occurs when price retests the wick of the PSP candle, as this level often acts as a resistance zone, pushing price lower.
If PSP aligns with a significant liquidity area or Order Block in a higher timeframe, traders can enter with greater confidence and place their stop-loss just above the PSP wick.
Overall, PSP is a highly effective tool for filtering false signals and improving trade entry precision. Combining PSP with SMT, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps across multiple timeframes allows traders to execute higher-accuracy trades with lower risk.
🔵 Settings
Mode :
2 Symbol : Identifies PSP and PCP between two correlated assets.
3 Symbol : Compares three assets to detect more complex divergences and stronger confirmation signals.
Second Symbol : The second asset used in PSP and correlation calculations.
Third Symbol : Used in three-symbol mode for deeper PSP and PCP analysis.
Filter Precision X Point : Enables or disables filtering for more precise PSP and PCP detection. This filter only identifies PSP and PCP when the base asset's candle qualifies as a Pin Bar.
Trend Effect : By changing the Trend Effect status to "Off," all Pin bars, whether bullish or bearish, are displayed regardless of the current market trend. If the status remains "On," only Pin bars in the direction of the main market trend are shown.
Bullish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Lower Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Lower Shadow to Higher Shadow" settings, you can customize your bullish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bullish Pin bars.
Bearish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Higher Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Higher Shadow to Lower Shadow" settings, you can customize your bearish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bearish Pin bars.
🔵 Conclusion
Precision Swing Point (PSP) is a powerful analytical tool in Smart Money trading strategies, helping traders identify precise market turning points by detecting divergences in candle closures between correlated assets. PSP is classified into Bullish PSP and Bearish PSP, each playing a crucial role in detecting trend weaknesses and determining optimal entry points for long and short trades.
Using the PSP wick as a key liquidity level, integrating it with SMT, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps, and analyzing higher timeframes are effective techniques to enhance trade entries. Ultimately, PSP serves as a complementary tool for improving entry accuracy and reducing unnecessary stop-outs, making it a valuable addition to Smart Money trading methodologies.

How It Works 🛠️
- 🔍 **Automatic Currency Detection**: Instantly spots the base (e.g., EUR in EURUSD) and quote (e.g., USD) currencies—no manual setup needed!
- 💪 **Composite Strength Calculation**: Measures each currency’s power by averaging its rate against 9 major currencies (GBP, EUR, CHF, USD, AUD, CAD, NZD, JPY, NOK). A true strength test! 🏋️♂️
- 📏 **Normalization**: Scales everything with a smart formula (price minus moving average, divided by standard deviation) so base, quote, and pair prices play on the same field. ⚖️
- 🎨 **Dynamic Visualization**:
- Plots 3 normalized lines with unique colors:
- **Base Composite** (e.g., purple for GBP, blue for EUR)
- **Quote Composite** (e.g., green for USD, yellow for JPY)
- **Actual Pair** (⚪ white)
- Adds labels on the last bar (e.g., "Base: GBP" in purple). 🏷️
- 📊 **Performance Histogram**: Shows the base vs. quote strength gap with a green (👍) or red (👎) area chart—adjusted by the pair’s price.
- ⚙️ **Customizable Settings**: Adjust Scaling Period (50), Histogram Scale (0.5), and Levels (1, -1) to fit your style! 🎚️
Benefits 🌈
- 🧠 **Simplified Analysis**: Normalized data cuts through the noise, making trends crystal clear.

[TehThomas] - ICT Liquidity sweepsThe ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is designed to track liquidity zones in the market areas where stop-losses and pending orders are typically clustered. This indicator marks buyside liquidity (resistance) and sellside liquidity (support), helping traders identify areas where price is likely to manipulate liquidity before making a significant move.
This tool is based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) Smart Money Concepts, which emphasize how institutional traders, or “Smart Money,” manipulate liquidity to fuel price movements. By identifying these zones, traders can anticipate liquidity sweeps and position themselves accordingly.
⚙️ How It Works
1️⃣ Detects Key Liquidity Zones
The script automatically identifies significant swing highs and swing lows in price action using a pivot-based method.
A swing high (buyside liquidity) is a peak where price struggles to break higher, forming a resistance level.
A swing low (sellside liquidity) is a valley where price struggles to go lower, creating a support level.
These liquidity points are prime targets for liquidity sweeps before a true trend direction is confirmed.
2️⃣ Draws Liquidity Lines
Once a swing high or low is identified, a horizontal line is drawn at that level.
The lines extend to the right, serving as future liquidity targets until they are broken.
The indicator allows customization in terms of color, line width, and maximum number of liquidity lines displayed at once.
3️⃣ Handles Liquidity Sweeps
When price breaks a liquidity level, the indicator reacts based on the chosen action setting:
Dotted/Dashed: The line remains visible but changes style to indicate a sweep.
Delete: The line is completely removed once price has interacted with it.
This feature ensures that traders can easily spot where liquidity has been taken and determine whether a reversal or continuation is likely.
4️⃣ Prevents Chart Clutter
To maintain a clean chart, the script limits the number of liquidity lines displayed at any given time.
When new liquidity zones are formed, the oldest lines are automatically removed, keeping the focus on the most relevant liquidity zones.
🎯 How to Use the ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator
🔍 Identifying Liquidity Grabs
This indicator helps you identify areas where Smart Money is targeting liquidity before making a move.
Buyside Liquidity (BSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price spikes above a resistance level before reversing downward.
Indicate that Smart Money has hunted stop-losses and buy stops before driving price lower.
Sellside Liquidity (SSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price drops below a support level before reversing upward.
Indicate that Smart Money has collected liquidity from stop-losses and sell stops before pushing price higher.
📈 Combining with Market Structure Shifts (MSS)
One of the best ways to use this indicator is in conjunction with our Market Structure Shifts Indicator.
Liquidity sweeps + MSS Confirmation give strong high-probability trade setups:
Wait for a liquidity sweep (price takes out a liquidity level).
Look for an MSS in the opposite direction (e.g., price sweeps a high, then breaks a recent low).
Enter the trade in the new direction with stop-loss above/below the liquidity sweep.
📊 Entry & Exit Strategies
Long Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key sellside liquidity level (SSL) → creates a false breakdown.
MSS confirms a reversal (price breaks structure upwards).
Enter long position after confirmation.
Stop-loss below the liquidity grab to minimize risk.
Short Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key buyside liquidity level (BSL) → takes liquidity above resistance.
MSS confirms a bearish move (price breaks a key support level).
Enter short position after confirmation.
Stop-loss above the liquidity grab.
🚀 Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer
✅ Helps Identify Smart Money Manipulation – Understand where institutions are likely to grab liquidity before the real move happens.
✅ Enhances Market Structure Analysis – When paired with MSS, liquidity sweeps become powerful signals for trend reversals.
✅ Filters Out False Breakouts – Many traders get caught in liquidity grabs. This indicator helps avoid bad entries.
✅ Keeps Your Chart Clean – The auto-limiting feature ensures that only the most relevant liquidity levels remain visible.
✅ Works on Any Timeframe – Whether you’re a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, liquidity concepts apply universally.
📌 Final Thoughts
The ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is a must-have tool for traders who follow Smart Money Concepts. By tracking liquidity levels and highlighting sweeps, it allows traders to enter trades with precision while avoiding false breakouts.
When combined with Market Structure Shifts (MSS), this strategy becomes even more powerful, offering traders an edge in spotting reversals and timing entries effectively.

Auto Wyckoff Schematic [by DanielM]This indicator is designed to automatically detect essential components of Wyckoff schematics. This tool aims to capture the critical phases of liquidity transfer from weak to strong hands, occurring before a trend reversal. While the Wyckoff method is a comprehensive and a very nuanced approach, every Wyckoff schematic is unique, making it impractical to implement all its components without undermining the detection of the pattern. Consequently, this script focuses on the essential elements critical to identifying these schematics effectively.
Key Features:
Swing Detection Sensitivity:
The sensitivity of swing detection is adjustable through the input parameter. This parameter controls the number of past bars analyzed to determine swing highs and lows, allowing users to fine-tune detection based on market volatility and timeframes.
Pattern Detection Logic:
Accumulation Schematic:
Detects consecutive lower swing lows, representing phases like Selling Climax (SC) and Spring, which often precede a trend reversal upward. After the final low is identified, a higher high is detected to confirm the upward trend initiation.
Labeled Key Points:
SC: Selling Climax, marking the beginning of the accumulation zone.
ST: Secondary Test during the schematic.
ST(b): Secondary Test in phase B.
Spring: The lowest point in the schematic, signaling a final liquidity grab.
SOS: Sign of Strength, confirming a bullish breakout.
The schematic is outlined visually with a rectangle to highlight the price range.
Distribution Schematic:
Detects consecutive higher swing highs, which indicate phases such as Buying Climax (BC) and UTAD, often leading to a bearish reversal. After the final high, a lower low is detected to confirm the downward trend initiation.
Labeled Key Points:
BC: Buying Climax, marking the beginning of the distribution zone.
ST: Secondary Test during the schematic.
UT: Upthrust.
UTAD: Upthrust After Distribution, signaling the final upward liquidity grab before a bearish trend.
SOW: Sign of Weakness, confirming a bearish breakout.
The schematic is visually outlined with a rectangle to highlight the price range.
Notes:
Simplification for Practicality: Due to the inherent complexity and variability of Wyckoff schematics, the indicator focuses only on the most essential features—liquidity transfer and key reversal signals.
Limitations: The tool does not account for all components of Wyckoff's method (e.g., minor phases or nuanced volume analysis) to maintain clarity and usability.
Unique Behavior: Every Wyckoff schematic is different, and this tool is designed to provide a simplified, generalized approach to detecting these unique patterns.

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.

1️⃣ Understanding the Sessions
Asia Session (Yellow Dot) → Marks liquidity buildup & pre-London moves
London Session (Blue Dot) → Strong volatility, breakout opportunities
New York AM Session (Green Dot) → Major trends & institutional participation
New York Lunch (Red Dot) → Low volume, ranging market
New York PM Session (Dark Green Dot) → End-of-day movements & reversals
2️⃣ Session Highs & Lows for Market Structure
Session Highs can act as resistance or breakout points.
Session Lows can act as support or stop-hunt zones.
Break of a session high/low with volume may indicate continuation or reversal.
3️⃣ Using the Daily & Weekly Open
The Daily Open (Black Line) helps gauge the intraday trend.
Above Daily Open → Bearish Bias
Below Daily Open → Bullish Bias
The Weekly Open (Red Line) sets the higher timeframe directional bias.
4️⃣ Alerts for Breakouts
The indicator will trigger alerts when price breaks session highs or lows.
Useful for setting stop-losses, breakout trades, and risk management.
💡 Why This Indicator is Important for Beginners
1️⃣ Avoids Overtrading:
Many beginners trade in low-volume periods (NY Lunch, Asia session) and get stuck in choppy price action.
This indicator highlights when volatility is high so traders focus on better opportunities.
2️⃣ Session-Based Liquidity Traps:
Market makers often run stops at session highs/lows before reversing.
Watching session breaks prevents traders from falling into liquidity grabs.
3️⃣ Reduces Emotional Trading:
If price is above the Daily Open, a beginner shouldn’t look for shorts.
If price is below a key session low, it may signal a fake breakout.
4️⃣ Aligns with Institutional Trading:
Smart money traders use session highs/lows to set stop hunts & reversals.
Beginners can use this indicator to spot these zones before entering trades.
🛡️ How to Mitigate Risk with This Indicator
✅ Wait for Confirmations – Don’t trade blindly at session highs/lows. Look for wicks, rejections, or break/retests.
✅ Use Stop-Loss Above/Below Session Levels – If you’re going long, set SL below a session low. If short, set SL above a session high.
✅ Watch Volume & News Events – Breakouts without strong volume or news may be fake moves.
✅ Combine with Other Strategies – Use price action, trendlines, or EMAs with this indicator for higher probability trades.
✅ Use the Weekly Open for Trend Bias – If price stays below the Weekly Open, avoid bullish setups unless key support holds.
🎯 Who is This Indicator For?
📌 Beginners who need clear session-based trading levels.
📌 Day traders & scalpers looking to refine their intraday setups.
📌 Smart money traders using liquidity concepts.
📌 Swing traders tracking higher timeframe momentum shifts.
🚀 Final Thoughts
This indicator is an essential tool for traders who want to understand market structure, liquidity, and volatility cycles. Whether you’re trading forex, stocks, or crypto, it helps you stay on the right side of the market and avoid unnecessary risks.
