Smart Money Pivot Strategy [Jason Kasei]This strategy is designed to identify key pivot points (Pivot High and Pivot Low) in the market and leverage the "Smart Money" concept to capture price breakout opportunities. It supports both long and short trades, offering customizable stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) settings, while visually plotting pivot points and breakout signals on the chart.
Core Features
Pivot Point Detection:
Utilizes ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions to detect the highest (Pivot High) and lowest (Pivot Low) points within a specified period (default: 20 bars).
Trading Signals:
Long Signal: Triggered when the price breaks above a previous Pivot High, indicating a potential uptrend.
Short Signal: Triggered when the price breaks below a previous Pivot Low, indicating a potential downtrend.
How It Works
Detects Pivot High (PH) and Pivot Low (PL) over the specified period and records their price and time.
Triggers a long entry when the price breaks above a Pivot High and a short entry when it falls below a Pivot Low.
Sets exit conditions automatically based on predefined SL and TP percentages after entry.
Plots breakout points and levels on the chart for analysis.
Considerations
The strategy relies on accurate pivot point detection; adjust the period parameter based on market volatility.
In highly volatile markets, consider widening the stop loss to avoid frequent triggering.
Combine with other indicators or analysis methods to validate signals and avoid blind trading.

Smart Range Breakout - SwiftEdgeDescription:
The "Smart Range Breakout - SwiftEdge" indicator is a custom tool designed for identifying potential breakout opportunities on a 1-minute chart, with a focus on volatile markets like the DAX index. This script introduces a unique approach by combining range consolidation detection with volume confirmation and breakout validation, tailored for short-term trading strategies.
How It Works:
The indicator identifies consolidation periods where the price range (difference between the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined length) is below a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). This helps detect periods of low volatility, which often precede breakouts.
Once a consolidation is confirmed (minimum number of bars), a green box is drawn on the chart, spanning a fixed length of bars (default 50), representing the potential breakout zone.
Breakouts are signaled only when a candle opens above the upper boundary (box top) or below the lower boundary (box bottom) of the consolidation box, ensuring a clear entry point based on price action at the open.
The script includes a volume filter, requiring volume to exceed a moving average by a specified multiplier, and a confirmation period to validate the breakout over consecutive bars.
To avoid signal clutter, only one breakout signal (up or down) is generated per box, and no further signals are issued until a new consolidation box is formed.
How to Use:
Apply the indicator to a 1-minute chart (optimized for DAX or similar volatile indices).
Adjust the "Consolidation Length" (default 5) to set the lookback period for detecting consolidation.
Modify the "Range Threshold (ATR Multiplier)" (default 2.0) to make the consolidation detection more or less strict based on market volatility.
Use "Minimum Consolidation Bars" (default 2) to set the minimum duration of a consolidation phase.
Tune "Confirmation Bars" (default 1) to require more bars to confirm the breakout.
Set "Volume MA Length" (default 5) and "Volume Multiplier" (default 1.1) to filter breakouts with insufficient volume.
Adjust "Max Box Length" (default 50) to control the duration of the breakout zone on the chart.
Look for green triangles below the chart for bullish breakouts and red triangles above for bearish breakouts, occurring when a candle opens outside the box with confirmed volume.
Originality:
This script stands out by integrating a fixed-length consolidation box with an opening-price breakout condition, combined with volume and multi-bar confirmation. Unlike traditional breakout indicators that rely solely on closing prices or simple price thresholds, this approach prioritizes the opening price and limits signals to one per cycle, reducing noise in volatile markets.
Chart Notes:
The accompanying chart displays the indicator's output with green boxes indicating consolidation zones, yellow dots marking consolidation periods, and green/red triangles for breakout signals. No additional scripts or unrelated drawings are included to ensure clarity.
Smart MA CrossoverThe Smart MA Crossover indicator is a trend-following tool designed to help traders identify high-probability buy and sell signals based on a dynamic moving average and volume confirmation.
This indicator allows traders to customize the moving average type (SMA, EMA, HMA, WMA, VWMA, SMMA, or VWAP) while incorporating an ATR-based filter for better signal clarity.
How It Works
The script analyzes price movements in relation to a selected moving average and volume conditions to generate trend-based trade signals:
🟢 Buy Signal:
- Price is trading above the moving average for at least two bars.
- A sudden upward momentum is detected (price > open * 1.005).
- Volume is higher than the 50-period SMA of volume.
- The price was trading below the moving average three bars ago.
🔴 Sell Signal:
- Price is trading below the moving average for at least two bars.
- A sudden downward movement is detected (price < open * 0.995).
- Volume is higher than the 50-period SMA of volume.
- The price was trading above the moving average three bars ago.
- When these conditions are met, a label appears on the chart, marking the potential trade signal.
Key Features
- Customizable Moving Averages – Choose between SMA, EMA, HMA, WMA, VWMA, SMMA, or VWAP.
- Dynamic Trend Detection – Moving average color changes based on trend direction.
- Volume Confirmation – Avoid false signals by filtering trades using SMA-based volume analysis.
- ATR-Based Signal Placement – Labels are positioned dynamically based on ATR values to improve visibility.
- Background Trend Highlighting – The background changes color depending on whether price is above (green) or below (red) the moving average.
- Alerts for Buy & Sell Signals – Get real-time notifications when a trade signal is generated.
How to Use
- This indicator is best suited for trend-following strategies and works across different markets, including stocks, forex, and crypto.
- It can be used on multiple timeframes, but traders should combine it with additional analysis to refine trade decisions.
- ATR-based signal placement ensures that buy/sell labels do not clutter the chart.
Important Notes
- This indicator does not predict future price movements—it is a trend-based tool meant to assist with trade decisions.
- No financial advice – Always use risk management when trading.
- TradingView users who do not read Pine Script can still fully utilize this script thanks to clear labels and alerts.

Smart ChannelThe "Smart Channel" indicator is designed to dynamically identify and plot price channels on a chart. It uses a statistical approach based on Pearson's correlation coefficient to determine the best-fit channel for both short-term and long-term trends. This allows traders to visualize potential support and resistance levels, identify trend direction, and potentially anticipate breakouts or reversals.
How it Works:
Data Input: The indicator takes a source input (typically the closing price) as the basis for its calculations.
Period Selection: It defines two sets of lookback periods: one for short-term analysis and one for long-term analysis. The code iterates through these periods, calculating a linear regression and standard deviation for each.
Pearson's Correlation: For each period, the indicator calculates Pearson's R, which measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between price and time. A higher absolute value of Pearson's R indicates a stronger trend.
Best Fit Channel: The indicator identifies the period with the highest Pearson's R for both short-term and long-term and uses the corresponding linear regression parameters (slope and intercept) to define the midline of the channel.
Standard Deviation: The standard deviation of the price data around the regression line is calculated. This is used to define the upper and lower boundaries of the channel. The channel width is controlled by a "Deviation Multiplier" input.
Channel Plotting: The indicator plots the midline, upper boundary, and lower boundary of the channel on the chart. Separate channels are plotted for the short-term and long-term best-fit periods, using different colors for easy visual distinction.
Dynamic Updates: The channel is dynamically updated as new price data becomes available, adjusting to the evolving market trend.
Key Inputs and Settings:
Source: The price data used for calculations (e.g., close, open, high, low, etc.).
Use Long-Term Channel: A boolean input to enable/disable the calculation and plotting of the long-term channel.
Deviation Multiplier: Controls the width of the channel (how many standard deviations away from the midline the boundaries are).
Channel/Midline Colors and Transparency: Customizable colors and transparency levels for the channel lines and fill.
Line Styles: Options for solid, dotted, or dashed lines for the channel boundaries and midline.
Extend Style: How the channel lines should extend (right, both, none, left).
Interpretation and Usage:
Trend Identification: The direction of the midline indicates the prevailing trend. An upward-sloping midline suggests an uptrend, while a downward-sloping midline suggests a downtrend.
Support and Resistance: The upper and lower channel boundaries can act as potential support and resistance levels.
Breakouts: A price move outside of the channel boundaries may signal a potential breakout or reversal.
Overbought/Oversold: Prices touching or exceeding the upper boundary might suggest an overbought condition, while prices touching or exceeding the lower boundary might suggest an oversold condition.
Short-Term vs. Long-Term: Comparing the short-term and long-term channels can provide insights into the overall market context. For example, a short-term uptrend within a long-term downtrend might suggest a potential buying opportunity before the larger trend resumes.
Smart RebalanceThis script is based on the portfolio rebalancing strategy. It's designed to work with cryptocurrencies, but it can work with any market.
How portfolio rebalance works?
Let's assume your initial capital is $1000, and you want to distribute it into 4 coins. This script takes the USDT as the stable coin for the initial money, so in case you want other currency, the pairs must be with that fiat as the quote.
Following our example, you would take BTC, ETH, BNB, and FTT. After selecting the coins, it's time to choose how much allocation is on each. Let's put 25% on each. This way, $250 of our capital on each coin.
After selecting the coins and their allocation, you choose the price change ratio for rebalancing. Let's use 1%. Next, you start to watch the markets. The first thing that happens, following our example, is the BTCUSDT price moving 1% up.
That amount hit the ratio of 1% for the rebalance. Hence, you sell 1% of BTC for USDT and redistribute to the other coins, buying 0.25% of each currency to rebalance the portfolio.
Next, ETHUSDT goes 1% down, time to rebalance again. This time, you need to take 0.33% of each other coin and buy ETH, so this way, it's all divided as the chosen allocation.
Why use rebalancing?
Looks easy, right? It is, but very time demanding. Demands even more if you raise the number of coins you want to distribute. Having a system to do that automatically is a must to work efficiently. Rebalancing spreads the risk among multiple currencies. This way, you earn small when it goes up, but you lose small when it goes down.
What this script helps with portfolio rebalance?
This indicator will not buy/sell for you but will help you choose the best markets for your rebalancing. Which coin will work best in that period? Do I need to have more than 8 coins? How much must be my ratio? Those questions you can answer using this indicator.
What this script has?
Start and End dates
The script will work for a certain period. All calculations will be done in that period.
Coin Ratio %
The amount of price movement of each asset that will be used to calculate the rebalancing
Initial Capital and Broker Fee
The amount of capital to be used on the rebalancing and the broker fee you want to use the strategy. The cost will be applied on every trade, buying or selling the coins.
Assets, allocations, and colors
It's possible to select from 2 to 10 assets to be used on the portfolio. Each purchase must have the allocation %. Suppose the sum of the allocations is different from 100%. In that case, a warning message will appear on the chart instead of the statistics.
Panel and tooltips
There is a panel with a summary of the results
Set allocations automatically
There is an option to make the indicator use the daily asset volume from the day before to determine the allocation percentage of each asset. This option is better if you are unsure how much allocation you want to use on each coin.
Use this indicator as a backtest for your rebalancing strategy. The selected market on the chart will not affect the calculation on this indicator, but the time frame will. The higher the time frame, the higher the coin ratio % must be.
About the code
The code is written to use arrays to store the values of each asset, making the calculations on each candle inside the time range. The for-loops are used to reduce the code length and make it easy to change the analysis of all assets. Finally, the script has some comments on the code.

Smart Labelling - Range FilterThis is a labelling module based on a range filter . Notice that the trick here is to use fibonachi numbers . Use smaller range multiplier for higher TFs. This module may serve as a signal generator to be passed through a signal filter.
Quote from the original author:
This is an experimental study designed to filter out minor price action for a clearer view of trends. Inspired by the QQE's volatility filter, this filter applies the process directly to price rather than to a smoothed RSI. First, a smooth average price range is calculated for the basis of the filter and multiplied by a specified amount. Next, the filter is calculated by gating price movements that do not exceed the specified range. Lastly the target ranges are plotted to display the prices that will trigger filter movement.

SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced)SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced) Script Summary
Overview
The "SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced)" script, written in Pine Script (version 6), is a technical analysis indicator designed for TradingView to identify and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on a price chart. It supports both the main timeframe and multiple higher timeframes (MTF) for comprehensive market analysis. FVGs are price gaps formed by a three-candle pattern, indicating potential areas of market inefficiency where price may return to fill the gap.
Key Features
FVG Detection:
Identifies bullish FVGs: Occur when the high of a candle two bars prior is lower than the low of the current candle, with the middle candle being bullish (close > open).
Identifies bearish FVGs: Occur when the low of a candle two bars prior is higher than the high of the current candle, with the middle candle being bearish (close < open).
Visualizes FVGs as colored boxes on the chart (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Mitigation Tracking:
Tracks when FVGs are touched (price overlaps the gap range) or mitigated (price fully closes the gap).
Strict Mode: Marks an FVG as mitigated when price touches the gap range.
Normal Mode: Requires a full breakthrough (price crossing the gap’s bottom for bullish FVGs or top for bearish FVGs) for mitigation.
Optionally converts FVG box borders to dashed lines and increases transparency when partially touched.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Support:
Analyzes FVGs on three user-defined higher timeframes (default: 15m, 60m, 240m).
Displays MTF FVGs with distinct labels and slightly more transparent colors.
Ensures no duplicate processing of MTF bars to maintain performance.
Customization Options:
FVG Length: Adjustable duration for how long FVGs are displayed (default: 20 bars).
Show/Hide FVGs: Toggle visibility for main timeframe and each MTF.
Color Customization: User-defined colors for bullish and bearish FVGs (default: green and red).
Display Options: Toggle for showing dashed lines after partial touches and strict mitigation mode.
Performance Optimization:
Limits the number of displayed boxes (50 for main timeframe, 20 per MTF) to prevent performance issues.
Automatically removes older boxes to maintain a clean chart.
Functionality
Visualization: Draws boxes around detected FVGs, with customizable colors and text labels ("FVG" for main timeframe, "FVG " for MTF).
Dynamic Updates: Extends or terminates FVG boxes based on mitigation status and user settings.
Efficient Storage: Uses arrays to manage FVG data (boxes, tops, bottoms, indices, mitigation status, and touch status) separately for main and MTF analyses.
Use Case
This indicator is designed for traders using Smart Money Concepts (SMC) to identify areas of market inefficiency (FVGs) for potential price reversals or continuations. The MTF support allows analysis across different timeframes, aiding in confirming trends or spotting higher-timeframe support/resistance zones.

Machine Learning-Inspired Supply & Demand Zones [AlgoPoint]This indicator is a Smart Supply & Demand Zone tool, developed with principles inspired by Machine Learning (ML). It intelligently filters out market noise, allowing you to focus only on the most significant zones where institutional order flow is likely present.
💡 How It Works: Why Is This Indicator "Smart"?
Unlike traditional indicators that only measure simple price movements, this script uses an algorithm that asks the same critical questions an experienced market analyst would to qualify a zone:
- 1. Price Imbalance: How fast and aggressively did the price leave the zone? Our algorithm measures the body size of the "departure candle" relative to the current market volatility (ATR). A zone is only considered if it was formed by an explosive move that is statistically significant, indicating a major imbalance between buyers and sellers.
- 2. Volume Confirmation: Did the "smart money" participate in this move? The script checks if the volume on the departure candle was significantly higher than the recent average volume. A spike in volume confirms that the move was backed by institutional interest, adding strength and validity to the zone.
- 3. Valid Pivot Structure: Did the zone originate from a meaningful swing high or low? The algorithm first identifies a valid pivot structure, ensuring that zones are not drawn from insignificant or random price fluctuations.
Only when a potential zone passes these three critical tests—our "quality filter"—is it drawn on your chart.
🚀 Features & How to Use
Using the indicator is straightforward. You will see two primary types of boxes on your chart:
* 🟥 Red Box (Supply Zone): An area of potential resistance where selling pressure is likely to be strong. Look for potential shorting opportunities as the price approaches this zone.
* 🟩 Green Box (Demand Zone): An area of potential support where buying pressure is likely to be strong. Look for potential long opportunities as the price pulls back into this zone.
Dynamic Zone Management
This indicator is not static; it lives and breathes with the market:
- Fresh Zone: A newly formed zone appears in its full, vibrant color. These are the highest-probability zones as they have not yet been re-tested.
- Broken / Flipped Zone: You have full control over what happens when a zone is broken! In the settings, you can choose:
- Delete Zone: The zone will be removed completely when the price closes through it.
- Show as Broken (Flip): When broken, the zone will turn gray, stop extending, and remain on your chart. This is extremely useful for identifying Support/Resistance Flips, where a broken demand zone becomes new resistance, or a broken supply zone becomes new support.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
Fine-tune the indicator to match your personal trading style via the settings menu:
- Breakout Behavior: The most powerful feature. Choose between Delete Zone and Show as Broken (Flip) to customize your chart.
- Zone Finding Logic: Control the indicator's sensitivity.
- Selective: Requires both strong imbalance and high volume. Finds fewer, but higher-quality, zones.
- Moderate: Requires either strong imbalance or high volume. Finds more potential zones.
- Sensitivity Settings: Adjust the ATR Multiplier and Volume Multiplier to make the criteria for a "strong" zone stricter or looser.

🔵 Usage:
Smart Money Trading: Utilize the premium and discount concept to align trades with institutional order flow.
Zone Reactions: Watch for price tests of reaction zones and use the retest signals to confirm potential reversals.
Midline Confirmation: If price holds above or below the midline, it can indicate directional bias.
Scalping & Swing Trading: Short-term traders can look for zone rejections, while swing traders can use the levels for trend continuation setups.
Peak Reaction Zones is a must-have tool for traders looking to trade with Smart Money Concepts, allowing for precise entries and exits based on key liquidity areas and market structure.
Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal) [LuxAlgo]The Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal) indicator is an experimental take on classical market structure, whereas fractal patterns are used for their construction instead of swing points.
Compared to utilizing swing points for highlighting market structure like our Smart Money Concepts indicator , fractal-based market structure can appear as more adaptive, however, it can also be more restrictive when it comes to returning swing points which can cause the indicator to miss reversals in some cases.
If enabled from within the settings, users can see support and resistance levels returned from the detected market structure with breakouts highlighted on the chart. Alongside this feature, an additional dashboard showing the structure to fractal structure percentage is also provided.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Length of the fractal patterns to detect.
🔹 Style
Bullish Structures: Show bullish structures.
Bearish Structures: Show bullish structures.
Support: Show support levels.
Resistance: Show resistance levels.
🔹 Dashboard
Show Dashboard: Show structure to fractal percentage dashboard on the chart.
Location: Location of the dashboard on the chart.
Size: Dashboard size.
🔶 USAGE
Market structure is commonly used to determine trend direction by using price positions relative to prior swing points. Using fractal patterns to determine market structure can allow users to obtain shorter, more frequent structure labels.
Market structure is commonly classified as follows:
Change of Character (CHoCH), also referred to as Market Structure Shift (MSS)
Break of Structure (BOS), also referred to as Market Structure Break (MSB)
Change of Characters indicate a shift in the market trend, confirming trend reversals. Break of Structures on the other hand occur once a trend is already determined, confirming new higher highs/lower lows.
Using higher length values allow users to detect longer-term fractals, thus highlighting longer-term market structures. The image above detects fractal patterns made of 7 candles, even if the increment is only of 2 bars this significantly reduces the amount of detected market structure labels.
The result obtained by utilizing fractals and higher settings can be a more dynamic view of market structure, however, as seen in the image above this can introduce very significant delay compared to utilizing pure swing points.
🔹 Support/Resistance
The indicator also returns support/resistance levels constructed from the market structure, these levels are obtained similarly to order blocks, finding the minimum on the interval of a bullish market structure and the maximum of a bearish market structure.
Price reaching a support/resistance level can be expected to bounce from it. Once a level is broken, the support/resistance level will no longer extend, and a circle will be displayed highlighting the break.
While utilizing this script for fractal-based market structure, these levels can be useful to ensure all swing points are still considered by the user with the possibility of the indicator missing reversals due to its calculation not being based on swing points themselves.
🔹 Dashboard
The dashboard reports the structure to fractal percentage, that is the amount of bullish/bearish market structures relative to the total amount of detected bullish/bearish fractal patterns.
This allows us to see how often a detected fractal pattern is used to display a market structure.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Fractals
In the context of technical analysis, Fractals refer to specific patterns that exhibit self-similarity at different scales or timeframes.
The most commonly known fractal pattern consists of a consecutive sequence of candles (more commonly 5), with the central candle being the lowest (in case of a bullish fractal) or highest (in case of a bearish fractal).

Order Block Drawing [TradingFinder]🔵 Introduction
Perhaps one of the most challenging tasks for Pine script developers (especially beginners) is properly drawing order blocks. While utilizing the latest technical analysis methods for "Price Action," beginners heavily rely on accurately plotting "Supply" and "Demand" zones, following concepts like "Smart Money Concept" and "ICT".
However, drawing "Order Blocks" may pose a challenge for developers. Therefore, to minimize bugs, increase accuracy, and speed up the process of coding order blocks, we have released the "Order Block Drawing" library.
Below, you can read more details about how to use this library.
Important :
This library has direct and indirect outputs. The indirect output includes the ranges of order blocks plotted on the chart. However, the direct output is a "Boolean" value that becomes "true" only when the price touches an order block, colloquially termed as "Mitigate." You can use this output for setting up alerts.
🔵 How to Use
First, you can add the library to your code as shown in the example below.
import TFlab/OrderBlockDrawing_TradingFinder/1
🟣Parameters
OBDrawing(OBType, TriggerCondition, DistalPrice, ProximalPrice, Index, OBValidDis, Show, ColorZone) =>
Parameters:
• OBType (string)
• TriggerCondition (bool)
• DistalPrice (float)
• ProximalPrice (float)
• Index (int)
• OBValidDis (int)
• Show (bool)
• ColorZone (color)
OBType : All order blocks are summarized into two types: "Supply" and "Demand." You should input your order block type in this parameter. Enter "Demand" for drawing demand zones and "Supply" for drawing supply zones.
TriggerCondition : Input the condition under which you want the order block to be drawn in this parameter.
DistalPrice : Generally, if each zone is formed by two lines, the farthest line from the price is termed "Distal." This input receives the price of the "Distal" line.
ProximalPrice : Generally, if each zone is formed by two lines, the nearest line to the price is termed "Proximal" line.
Index : This input receives the value of the "bar_index" at the beginning of the order block. You should store the "bar_index" value at the occurrence of the condition for the order block to be drawn and input it here.
OBValidDis : Order blocks continue to be drawn until a new order block is drawn or the order block is "Mitigate." You can specify how many candles after their initiation order blocks should continue. If you want no limitation, enter the number 4998.
Show : You may need to manage whether to display or hide order blocks. When this input is "On", order blocks are displayed, and when it's "Off", order blocks are not displayed.
ColorZone : You can input your preferred color for drawing order blocks.
🔵 Function Outputs
This function has only one output. This output is of type "Boolean" and becomes "true" only when the price touches an order block. Each order block can be touched only once and then loses its validity. You can use this output for alerts.
= Drawing.OBDrawing('Demand', Condition, Distal, Proximal, Index, 4998, true, Color)
Order Blocks Indicator [TradingFinder] Lightning|CHOCH |OB | BOS🔵 Introduction
In "Price Action," an "Order Block" is essentially an area on the price chart where significant players such as institutional traders have executed their moves by placing noteworthy orders. These points often indicate areas where price either attempts to break through (resistance) or returns when it reaches there (support).
Therefore, when discussing the identification of order blocks, we typically refer to finding points where the price has stalled for a while and has accumulated strength before making a significant move in one direction.
Essentially, order blocks assist traders in understanding where large players with "smart money" have likely placed their bulk orders in the market. Traders use these order blocks as part of their overall analysis to identify probable levels where price may change direction.
This version of the order block indicator is designed for traders, adding many indicators to their charts. The minimal design helps minimize disruptions to user focus.
🔵 Identification of Order Blocks
To identify order blocks, first, a "Level Break" must occur. To identify a "Demand Zone," a "High Level Break" is required, and to identify a "Supply Zone," a "Low Level Break" is needed.
Demand Zone :
Supply Zone :
🔵 "Change of Character" or "Market Shift Structure"
"ChoCh" or "MSS" is the "Break Level" that is contrary to the previous trend. For example, if a "Bearish Level" is established in the market and consecutive "Low Levels" are being broken, the price turns upward, breaking a "High Level." This break is called "ChoCh" or "MSS."
🔵 "Break of Structure"
"Break of Structure," or "BoS" for short, is the "Break Level" in the direction of the current trend. For example, if a "Bullish Level" is established in the market, when the price breaks a "High Level," a "BoS" has occurred.
🔵 Features
🟣 Major Level
This feature helps you easily identify major levels. These levels form when the price breaks another major level.
🟣 Refine Order Block
The "Refinement" feature allows you to adjust the width of the order block based on your strategy. There are two modes, "Aggressive" and "Defensive," in Order Block Refine. The difference between "Aggressive" and "Defensive" lies in the width of the order block. For "Risk Averse" traders, the "Defensive" mode is suitable because it provides smaller stop losses and larger reward-to-risk ratios. For "Risk Taker" traders, the "Aggressive" mode is more suitable. These traders prefer to enter trades at higher prices and this mode, where the width of the order block is greater, is more suitable for this group of individuals.
🔵 How to Use
After adding the indicator to your chart, you will see a visual similar to the image below. Green order blocks are "Demand Zones" and red order blocks are "Supply Zones." The midpoint of the order blocks also indicates 50% of it.
Refine Order Block is defaulted to On and refines the order blocks. If you want the order blocks to remain original, you should set it to Off.
Refine is defaulted to "Defensive" mode. If you want it to be in "Aggressive" mode, you should change its mode through Refine Type.
Displaying "Major Levels" is turned off by default and to display them, you should set "Show High Level" and "Show Low Level" to "Yes." You can use these lines to identify liquidity or determine stop loss and take profit levels.
Liquidity Finder🔵 Introduction
The concept of "liquidity pool" or simply "liquidity" in technical analysis price action refers to areas on the price chart where stop losses accumulate, and the market, by reaching those areas and collecting liquidity (Stop Hunt), provides the necessary energy to move the price. This concept is prominent in the "ICT" and "Smart Money" styles. Imagine, as depicted below, the price is at a support level. The general trader mentality is that there is "demand" for the asset at this price level, and this demand will outweigh "supply" as before. So, it is likely that the price will increase. As a result, they start buying and place their stop loss below the support area.
Stop Hunt areas are essentially traders' "stop loss" levels. These are the liquidity that institutional and large traders need to fill their orders. Consequently, they penetrate the price below support areas or above resistance areas to touch their stop loss and fill their orders, and then the price trend reverses.
Cash zones are generally located under "Swings Low" and above "Swings High." More specifically, they can be categorized as support levels or resistance levels, above Double Top and Triple Top patterns, below Double Bottom and Triple Bottom patterns, above Bearish Trend lines, and below Bullish Trend lines.
Double Top and Triple Top :
Double Bottom and Triple Bottom :
Bullish Trend line and Bearish Trend line :
🔵 How to Use
To optimally use this indicator, you can adjust the settings according to the symbol, time frame, and your needs. These settings include the "sensitivity" of the "liquidity finder" function and the swing periods related to static and dynamic liquidity lines.
"Statics Liquidity Line Sensitivity" is a number between 0 and 0.4. Increasing this number decreases the sensitivity of the "Statics Liquidity Line Detection" function and increases the number of lines identified. The default value is 0.3.
"Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity" is a number between 0.4 and 1.95. Increasing this number increases the sensitivity of the "Dynamics Liquidity Line Detection" function and decreases the number of lines identified. The default value is 1.
"Statics Period Pivot" is set to 8 by default. By changing this number, you can specify the period for the static liquidity line pivots.
"Dynamics Period Pivot" is set to 3 by default. By changing this number, you can specify the period for the dynamic liquidity line pivots.
🔵 Settings
Access to adjust the inputs of Static Dynamic Liquidity Line Sensitivity, Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity, Statics Period Pivot, and Dynamics Period Pivot is possible from this section.
Additionally, you can enable or disable liquidity lines as needed using the buttons for "Show Statics High Liquidity Line," "Show Statics Low Liquidity Line," "Show Dynamics High Liquidity Line," and "Show Dynamics Low Liquidity Line."
SMC Fake Zones + InsideBarThis indicator is useful for whom trade with "Smart Money Concept (SMC)" strategy.
It helps SMD traders to identify fake or weak zones in the chart, So they can avoid taking position in this zones.
This indicator marks "Asia session" as well as "London and New York's Lunch Time (one hour before London and NY session starts)" zones.
It also marks Inside Bar candles which SMC trades consider as order flow. You can mark every Inside Bar or only those with opposite color via setting options.
*** As we know in SMC rules
1- Supply and Demand zones in "Asia session and Lunch Times" are fake zones for SMC trading and price will engulf them in most of times.
2- "Asia session high and low" has huge liquidity and usually price sweep that in London session.
This indicator will helps traders to visually identify those Fake zones and Asia session liquidity.
* You can change session times based on your time zone in settings.
* You can set options to show all Inside Bars or only with Opposite color in settings.
CISD [TakingProphets]🧠 Indicator Purpose:
The "CISD - Change in State of Delivery" is a precision tool designed for traders utilizing ICT (Inner Circle Trader) conecpets. It detects critical shifts in delivery conditions after liquidity sweeps — helping you spot true smart money activity and optimal trade opportunities. This script is especially valuable for traders applying liquidity concepts, displacement recognition, and market structure shifts at both intraday and swing levels.
🌟 What Makes This Indicator Unique:
Unlike basic trend-following or scalping tools, CISD operates through a two-phase smart money logic:
Liquidity Sweep Detection (sweeping Buyside or Sellside Liquidity).
State of Delivery Change Identification (through bearish or bullish displacement after the sweep).
It intelligently tracks candle sequences and only signals a CISD event after true displacement — offering a much deeper context than ordinary indicators.
⚙️ How the Indicator Works:
Swing Point Detection: Identifies recent pivot highs/lows to map Buyside Liquidity (BSL) and Sellside Liquidity (SSL) zones.
Liquidity Sweeps: Watches for price breaches of these liquidity points to detect institutional stop hunts.
Sequence Recognition: Finds series of same-direction candles before sweeps to mark institutional accumulation/distribution.
Change of Delivery Confirmation: Confirms CISD only after significant displacement moves price against the initial candle sequence.
Visual Markings: Automatically plots CISD lines and optional labels, customizable in color, style, and size.
🎯 How to Use It:
Identify Liquidity Sweeps: Watch for CISD levels plotted after a liquidity sweep event.
Plan Entries: Look for retracements into CISD lines for high-probability entries.
Manage Risk: Use CISD levels to refine your stop-loss and profit-taking zones.
Best Application:
After stop hunts during Killzones (London Open, New York AM).
As part of the Flow State Model: identify higher timeframe PD Arrays ➔ wait for lower timeframe CISD confirmation.
🔎 Underlying Concepts:
Liquidity Pools: Highs and lows cluster stop orders, attracting institutional sweeps.
Displacement: Powerful price moves post-sweep confirm smart money involvement.
Market Structure: CISD frequently precedes major Change of Character (CHoCH) or Break of Structure (BOS) shifts.
🎨 Customization Options:
Adjustable line color, width, and style (solid, dashed, dotted).
Optional label display with customizable color and sizing.
Line extension settings to keep CISD zones visible for future reference.
✅ Recommended for:
Traders studying ICT Smart Money Concepts.
Intraday scalpers and higher timeframe swing traders.
Traders who want to improve entries around liquidity sweeps and institutional displacement moves.
