ICT London Liquidity & Structure Matrix PROICT London Liquidity & Structure Matrix PRO
ICT London Liquidity & Structure Matrix PRO is an ultra clean, professional charting tool built for traders practicing Smart Money Concepts and ICT methodologies. It isolates macro pivot points with clean blank badges, tracks Asian liquidity boundaries, highlights London Killzone sessions, and projects auto disappearing daily key levels.
Key Features Overview
1. Major High and Low Blank Badges
Marks key structural pivot extremes using clean, minimal solid badges without distracting text overlays. Major highs are marked with solid red badges, and major lows are marked with solid green badges for instant market direction identification.
2. Auto Mitigating Previous Day High and Low
Projects active daily boundaries across your chart. Previous Day High and Previous Day Low levels automatically clean up and vanish the moment price touches or mitigates them.
3. Clean Asian Session High and Low Boundaries
Tracks Asian range consolidation levels with subtle dashed lines and right aligned text labels, providing clear session liquidity targets.
4. Exclusive London Killzone Highlight
Keeps chart aesthetics clean by displaying a single, light background overlay strictly for the high volatility London Session window.
5. Dynamic Auto Mitigating Fair Value Gaps
Automatically identifies bullish and bearish price imbalances across all timeframes. Unmitigated imbalance boxes vanish as soon as price fills the gap.
How to Use
Step 1: Locate Structural Pivots
Identify major highs with red badges and major lows with green badges to assess macro trend bias and key liquidity pools.
Step 2: Monitor Asian Boundaries
Observe Asian High and Low lines created prior to the European open to anticipate potential liquidity sweeps.
Step 3: Execute During London Session
Focus on trade opportunities forming inside the highlighted London Killzone window upon retaps into active Fair Value Gaps.

## WHAT IS TRADER FORGE V6?
Trader Forge V6 is a multi-timeframe decision-support system designed to help traders find structured, higher-quality trade setups.
The system does not rely on one indicator.
It combines market location, higher-timeframe direction, momentum, candle behavior, liquidity, market structure, and setup scoring.
```pinescript
SYSTEM_PROCESS =
LOCATION
→ HIGHER_TIMEFRAME_ALIGNMENT
→ SETUP_DETECTION
→ BREAK_OF_STRUCTURE
→ A_PLUS_CONFIRMATION
```
---
## CORE SYSTEM COMPONENTS
```pinescript
DONCHIAN_CHANNEL = "Identifies recent price extremes"
HIGHER_TIMEFRAMES = "1H, 4H and Daily directional bias"
MARKET_STRUCTURE = "Fast and major swing structure"
BREAK_OF_STRUCTURE = "Confirms directional control"
COMPRESSION = "Identifies stored market energy"
EXHAUSTION = "Identifies rejection at key levels"
LIQUIDITY_SWEEPS = "Tracks failed breaks of highs and lows"
STOCH_RSI = "Confirms momentum direction"
VWAP = "Measures session price positioning"
RELATIVE_VOLUME = "Measures market participation"
SETUP_SCORE = "Grades setup quality from 0 to 100"
ATR_TRADE_PLAN = "Calculates risk-based trade levels"
```
---
## HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
### 1. LOCATION
Price must first reach a meaningful area.
Examples include:
- Upper Donchian zone
- Lower Donchian zone
- Support or resistance
- Previous swing high or low
- Higher-timeframe price extreme
- Liquidity level
```pinescript
validLocation =
lowerDonchianZone or
upperDonchianZone or
keySupport or
keyResistance
```
The system is designed to avoid low-quality entries in the middle of a range.
```pinescript
if priceInMiddle
action := "WAIT"
```
---
### 2. MULTI-TIMEFRAME ALIGNMENT
The system checks three higher timeframes:
```pinescript
timeframeOne = "1 Hour"
timeframeTwo = "4 Hour"
timeframeThree = "Daily"
```
By default, at least two of the three timeframes should support the trade direction.
```pinescript
bullishAlignment = bullishTimeframes >= 2
bearishAlignment = bearishTimeframes >= 2
```
The higher timeframes provide direction.
The lower timeframe provides execution.
---
### 3. SETUP DETECTION
The system looks for evidence that price may be preparing to move.
```pinescript
bullishSetup =
lowerZone and
bullishMomentum and
(bullishExhaustion or compression or bullishLiquiditySweep)
bearishSetup =
upperZone and
bearishMomentum and
(bearishExhaustion or compression or bearishLiquiditySweep)
```
A setup is not automatically an entry.
It tells the trader to begin watching for confirmation.
---
### 4. STRUCTURE CONFIRMATION
The system waits for a Break of Structure before confirming the setup.
```pinescript
bullishBOS = close > previousSwingHigh
bearishBOS = close < previousSwingLow
```
A bullish Break of Structure suggests buyers are gaining control.
A bearish Break of Structure suggests sellers are gaining control.
```pinescript
if bullishSetup and bullishBOS
confirmation := "BULLISH"
if bearishSetup and bearishBOS
confirmation := "BEARISH"
```
---
### 5. A+ SIGNAL
An A+ signal appears only when the required conditions and minimum setup score are satisfied.
```pinescript
minimumScore = 70
aPlusBuy =
bullishSetup and
bullishBOS and
bullishAlignment and
buyScore >= minimumScore
aPlusSell =
bearishSetup and
bearishBOS and
bearishAlignment and
sellScore >= minimumScore
```
The default qualifying score is:
```pinescript
A_PLUS_SCORE = 70
MAX_SCORE = 100
```
A score of 70 does not mean the trade has a guaranteed 70% win rate.
It means the setup earned 70 of the 100 available system points.
---
## SCORE BREAKDOWN
```pinescript
structureConfirmation = 25
donchianLocation = 20
compressionExhaustion = 15
stochRsiMomentum = 10
vwapPosition = 10
oneHourBias = 5
fourHourBias = 5
dailyBias = 10
maximumScore = 100
```
The strongest setups normally combine:
- Good location
- Higher-timeframe agreement
- Momentum confirmation
- Compression or exhaustion
- Liquidity context
- Break of Structure
- Acceptable reward-to-risk
---
## BEGINNER WORKFLOW
```pinescript
stepOne = "Check the Daily chart for major location"
stepTwo = "Check the 4H chart for trend and market condition"
stepThree = "Check the 1H chart for bias and structure"
stepFour = "Use the 5m or 15m chart for execution"
stepFive = "Wait for price to reach a key location"
stepSix = "Wait for a valid setup to form"
stepSeven = "Wait for Break of Structure confirmation"
stepEight = "Review the setup score"
stepNine = "Plan entry, stop and targets"
stepTen = "Enter only when risk is acceptable"
```
### Recommended chart process
```pinescript
DAILY → LOCATION
FOUR_H → CONTEXT
ONE_H → DIRECTION
FIVE_M → EXECUTION
```
---
## BULLISH SETUP
```pinescript
bullishTrade =
priceNearLowerZone and
bullishHigherTimeframes and
bullishSetupCondition and
bullishBreakOfStructure and
score >= minimumScore
```
A bullish setup may include:
- Price near the lower Donchian zone
- A sweep below a previous low
- A bullish exhaustion candle
- Stochastic RSI turning upward
- Price recovering above VWAP
- A bullish Break of Structure
The system may then display:
```pinescript
signal = "A+ BUY"
```
---
## BEARISH SETUP
```pinescript
bearishTrade =
priceNearUpperZone and
bearishHigherTimeframes and
bearishSetupCondition and
bearishBreakOfStructure and
score >= minimumScore
```
A bearish setup may include:
- Price near the upper Donchian zone
- A sweep above a previous high
- A bearish exhaustion candle
- Stochastic RSI turning downward
- Price falling below VWAP
- A bearish Break of Structure
The system may then display:
```pinescript
signal = "A+ SELL"
```
---
## TRADE PLANNING
The system includes an ATR-based planning tool.
```pinescript
stopDistance = atr * 1.5
targetOne = 1.0R
targetTwo = 2.0R
targetThree = 3.0R
```
The ATR levels are planning references.
The trader must still verify:
- Market structure
- Swing highs and lows
- Support and resistance
- Position size
- Maximum account risk
- Daily loss limits
```pinescript
preferredRiskReward = "2:1 or greater"
```
---
## ALERTS INCLUDED
```pinescript
alertcondition(buySetupPending, "Buy Setup Pending")
alertcondition(sellSetupPending, "Sell Setup Pending")
alertcondition(aPlusBuy, "A+ Buy")
alertcondition(aPlusSell, "A+ Sell")
alertcondition(bullishBOS, "Bullish BOS")
alertcondition(bearishBOS, "Bearish BOS")
alertcondition(bullishSweep, "Bullish Liquidity Sweep")
alertcondition(bearishSweep, "Bearish Liquidity Sweep")
```
A pending alert means a setup may be developing.
It does not mean the trader should enter immediately.
---
## IMPORTANT TRADING RULES
```pinescript
RULE_01 = "No location, no trade"
RULE_02 = "Higher timeframes provide direction"
RULE_03 = "Compression does not predict direction"
RULE_04 = "Momentum confirms; it does not lead"
RULE_05 = "Structure confirms the trade"
RULE_06 = "Never chase an extended signal candle"
RULE_07 = "Define risk before entering"
RULE_08 = "Protect capital before seeking profit"
RULE_09 = "A missed trade is better than a forced trade"
RULE_10 = "Consistency beats intensity"
```
---
## WHEN TO WAIT
```pinescript
waitForTrade =
priceInMiddle or
conflictingTimeframes or
missingStructureConfirmation or
score < minimumScore or
poorRiskReward or
oversizedSignalCandle
```
The system is built to encourage patience.
Not every market movement is a valid trade.

PO3 Matrix+ (M1D)PO3 Matrix+ (M1D)
Projects the recent candles of a chosen higher timeframe as a compact candle matrix beside live price, then marks the liquidity events, structure and PD array context that develop on that timeframe — taken swings, structure shifts, fair value gaps, previous-day levels, and cross-market divergence. The intent is to read higher-timeframe conditions without leaving the execution chart, and to keep every drawn element sourced from the same data so nothing drifts out of step.
── HOW IT IS BUILT ──
The selected higher timeframe is pulled once, as a snapshot of its recent candles, and every element is drawn on the last bar from that one source. Dividers, high/low rails, quadrants, sweeps, gaps and structure all read the same array, so they cannot disagree with each other. The forming candle is accumulated from chart bars, so it updates live without repainting its history.
Level lines are origin-anchored: each one begins at the candle that actually printed the extreme, not at the bar where the level happened to be calculated. Derived midlines (equilibrium, the inner quartiles) have no originating candle, so they run from the period open instead.
── WHAT IT DRAWS ──
PO3 CANDLE MATRIX — the selected higher timeframe's recent candles, projected to the right of price with time dividers on the live chart and a per-candle high/low rail. A countdown above the block shows the timeframe in use and the time left on the forming candle. The PD array context is mirrored onto the block at its own horizontal scale, and each event carries a compact direction marker there, so the block reads as a standalone view of what that timeframe is showing.
CANDLE EQUILIBRIUM — the true 50 percent of each completed candle in the block, as a reference the following candle can retrace into.
CURRENT-RANGE QUADRANTS — the forming candle's high, 75 percent, equilibrium, 25 percent and low projected across price as a live premium and discount reference.
LIQUIDITY SWEEPS — only swing liquidity is marked. A level qualifies when it is a swing high or swing low that a later candle raids and then closes back inside: wick beyond, body back within. A candle that simply trades past its neighbour is not a sweep and is not marked.
SMT DIVERGENCE — the correlated market is read on the same higher-timeframe grid, so the two align candle for candle. A SMT is marked when your chart takes a swing but the peer fails to take its matching swing, meaning the move lacked cross-market participation. The peer auto-pairs across equity indices, precious metals and BTC against ETH, in matching contract sizes, and can be overridden with any symbol. It deliberately does not guess a peer for markets where the correlation is too loose for a divergence to mean anything; with no pairing, no SMT is drawn. A SMT is invalidated in real time once price trades back through the extreme that formed it, and is then either faded or removed.
MARKET STRUCTURE SHIFT — a true swing broken by a body close. A swing here means a level price actually turned at: a swing low sits at the change from a down candle to an up candle, a swing high at the change from an up candle to a down one. A low that merely sits under its neighbours while price kept running the same way is not a swing and is never used, which is what separates this from a plain pivot break. The first candle to CLOSE beyond the swing's full wick — body, not wick — marks the shift; later closes past the same level are continuation and are not marked. An optional setting requires a liquidity raid to precede the shift, for the classic sweep-then-shift sequencing: a buyside raid before a bearish shift, a sellside raid before a bullish one.
FAIR VALUE GAPS (BISI+ / SIBI-) — detected on the higher-timeframe snapshot, so they are multi-timeframe by construction. Only fully formed gaps are drawn; a gap still forming on the live candle is ignored until it completes. Each zone moves through four states: live, active, inverted, or spent. A gap closed clean through has inverted — the old support is now resistance, or the reverse — and it stays inverted, flipped and redrawn in the inversion colour, for as long as that break holds. No retest is required, because a retest is where the level gets traded rather than what makes it valid. Closing back through in the original direction takes the gap back; the zone is spent, and fades but stays on the chart as history rather than disappearing.
PREVIOUS-DAY LEVELS — previous high, low and equilibrium, drawn from session start and dimming once taken. Three definitions of the day are offered because they genuinely differ on futures: the symbol's own daily candle, midnight to midnight New York, or the regular-hours session only. Regular hours are taken from the instrument itself rather than a fixed clock, so index futures, metals and everything else each use their own session. The label carries the source date, so a level that is several days old after a weekend reads as intentional.
CONTEXT TABLE — day, AMD phase, forming-candle bias, premium or discount, higher-timeframe direction, last sweep, market structure shift, fair value gap, previous-day status, and a session-close countdown. SMT is drawn on the chart and the block but does not have its own table row.
── SETTINGS WORTH KNOWING ──
The higher timeframe must be above the chart timeframe; the script says so on the chart if it is not.
Session handling is read from the instrument, not hardcoded, so the regular-hours option and the session countdown are correct on index futures, metals and anything else without configuration. Instruments that trade around the clock have no regular session, and the countdown says so rather than inventing one.
Every drawn element can be turned on or off on its own, and the chart labels and the compact markers on the projected block are controlled separately, so the block can be kept clean while the chart stays annotated. Label size, colour, vertical clearance, which side of a line a label sits on, and the marker glyph style are all adjustable.
Fair value gap sensitivity is measured against the average range of the visible higher-timeframe candles, so it scales per instrument rather than being a fixed distance. Raise the minimum height and displacement to keep only the larger gaps.
Market structure shift has an optional displacement requirement, off by default. Turn it on if you want the shifting candle to also expand or leave a gap, which reduces how often it marks.
Sweeps, gaps and structure marks each have a maximum shown, so the chart stays contained rather than accumulating history indefinitely. Gap zones also declutter against each other: two translucent zones stacked on the same prices multiply into a solid block, so a zone overlapping one already drawn beyond an adjustable tolerance is skipped and the most recent gap in that price band is the one kept. The same idea applies to stacking: two same-direction zones separated by only a thin seam read as one inefficiency wearing two boxes, so the older one is removed and the newest kept. Zones facing opposite directions are never removed for sitting close together — they are genuinely different reads.
── NOTES ──
Detection runs on completed higher-timeframe candles. The forming candle updates live, but a gap or a structure mark is only considered once the candles that define it have closed.
SMT is not available in bar replay. Replay rewinds the chart symbol only, so the correlated symbol keeps returning its live data and the two grids no longer line up; the table reports Misaligned and no divergence is drawn. That is the alignment guard working, not a fault. Every other feature reads from the chart symbol and replays normally.
Everything drawn is context. There are no entry or exit instructions, no directional calls, and no performance claims of any kind. It reports what has happened on the higher timeframe.
This is a market-analysis tool, not financial advice. Past market behaviour does not indicate future results. Test any tool thoroughly and trade your own plan.

HTF Candle PO3 AMD SessionsHTF Session Dashboard (Higher Timeframe Candles)
Core idea: This indicator allows you to view the price action of a Higher Timeframe (HTF) drawn as full candles directly on your current lower timeframe chart. It's designed to keep you aware of the macro market structure without needing to constantly switch timeframes.
How It Works
Instead of just showing standard HTF levels, this indicator dynamically builds and projects the current day's higher timeframe candles (e.g., 4-Hour candles) off to the right side of your active chart (e.g., a 1-minute or 5-minute chart).
The candles are constructed in real-time. As price moves on your lower timeframe, the active "current" HTF candle will grow its wicks and adjust its body live.
Key Features
Live HTF Candle Projection: Displays the sequence of HTF candles that make up the current trading day, spaced neatly to the right of the current price action.
Session Extremes: Automatically draws dotted reference lines stretching across your chart to highlight the absolute High, Low, Body High, and Body Low of the entire current session.
Live Countdown Timer: Shows a dynamic timer above and below the candle cluster indicating exactly how much time is left until the active HTF candle closes.
Hour Labels: Every HTF candle has a small label indicating its open hour (with an adjustable timezone offset setting) to help you quickly identify Kill Zones within the macro candles.
Visual Customization: Fully adjustable body width, transparency, spacing, offset distance, and bull/bear color schemes.
Clean Daily Reset: The indicator automatically clears the prior day's candles at midnight (exchange time) and begins building the new sequence, keeping your chart uncluttered.
Why Use This?
When trading intraday (like on a 1m chart), it's easy to get lost in the noise and trade right into a major 4-Hour support or resistance level. By projecting the 4-Hour candles directly onto your 1-minute chart, you always know exactly where you are relative to the higher timeframe narrative and structure.
Recommended Settings
HTF Setting: 240 (4 Hours) or 60 (1 Hour) when trading on a 1m–15m chart.
Hour Label Offset: Adjust this (e.g., +1 or -1) if you want the candle hour labels to match a specific local time zone (like EST) rather than exchange time.

Strong Tech Stocks Screener | ProjectSyndicateStrong Tech Stocks Screener turns dozens of charts into a single institutional-style dashboard, ranking a curated universe of 40 leading tech, AI, and semiconductor names by performance across six timeframes and scoring each one on professional-grade risk metrics — Beta, Sharpe, Sortino, Omega, Z-Score, and Kelly — so you can find the leaders and weigh their risk-adjusted quality at a glance, all on one clean, sortable panel. Every figure is computed live on the daily timeframe from real price history, not hard-coded, so the board reflects the market as it actually is right now.
📊 Curated 40-Name Tech Universe — the screener watches a hand-picked list of 40 high-momentum tech, AI, and semiconductor stocks in one place. Instead of flipping through forty charts, you see every name's performance and risk profile side by side and immediately spot who is leading and who is rolling over.
🗓️ Six-Timeframe Performance — each stock is tracked across Week, Month, Quarter, 6-Month, 12-Month, and Year-to-Date returns, so you can separate a one-week pop from a genuine long-run trend and see momentum building or fading across horizons in a single row.
🧮 Institutional Risk Metrics, Done Properly — beyond raw returns, every name is scored on Sharpe (excess return per unit of total volatility), Sortino (return per unit of downside risk only), Omega (probability-weighted gains versus losses above the risk-free threshold), Z-Score (how stretched the recent move is in standard deviations), and the Kelly fraction (a theoretical optimal-sizing read from return and variance). The stats are annualized from daily returns over a rolling window with a configurable risk-free rate, so the risk picture is consistent and comparable across the whole list.
🎯 Basket-Relative Beta — Beta is measured against an equal-weight basket of the 40 names in the screener, so it tells you how a stock moves relative to this specific tech/AI cohort rather than a broad index. Beta above 1 swings harder than the group; below 1 is steadier. You control the lookback length used for the beta and correlation calculation.
🌡️ Annualized Weekly Volatility — a dedicated Wk Vol column annualizes the standard deviation of recent weekly returns, giving you a fast read on how violent each name's price action is before you size into it.
🔀 Dynamic Sorting — sort the entire board by any of the six performance columns with a single setting. Rank by YTD to find the year's leaders, by Week to catch what is moving now, or by any horizon in between — the table re-ranks instantly.
🎨 Bloomberg-Amber Theme with Color-Coded Strength — a clean amber-on-black dashboard with a multi-level gradient that runs from bright amber on the strongest gains through to deep red on the steepest losses, so strength and weakness jump out the moment you look at the panel.
🧩 Fully Customizable Dashboard — place the table anywhere on the chart (Top / Middle / Bottom paired with Left / Center / Right), choose your text size (Tiny / Small / Normal / Large), set the sort column, the beta length, and the risk-free rate and periods — all from the settings menu, no code editing required.
🔒 Daily-Timeframe Lock — the screener is built for daily data and will prompt you to switch if you load it on a lower timeframe, so the returns, volatility, and ratios are always calculated on the basis they are designed for.
⚡ Lightweight and Efficient — the whole 40-name board is built from a tight, well-organized script that runs smoothly on PulseWire, with a clean merged title heading and an alternating-row layout for easy reading.
🎯 Why this is different — most watchlists show you price and maybe a percentage move. This screener puts performance and a full institutional risk stack — Sharpe, Sortino, Omega, Z-Score, Kelly, Beta, and annualized volatility — for forty leading tech names on one sortable, color-coded panel, so you are ranking opportunities by risk-adjusted quality, not just chasing the biggest green number.
🚀 Where to use it — apply it to any daily chart to monitor the tech/AI/semiconductor leadership group as a whole. Use it for top-down scanning, rotation ideas, and risk screening before you drill into an individual name's chart for entry timing.
⚠️ Important — this is a research and decision-support dashboard, not a buy/sell system, and it makes no performance guarantees. All figures are historical and descriptive, computed from past price data, and say nothing certain about the future. Risk metrics like Sharpe, Sortino, Omega, Z-Score, and Kelly are simplified, assumption-based estimates and should inform your judgment, not replace it. Always pair the screener with your own analysis and risk management. Indicator
HTF Power of Three @SafarTradesHTF Power of Three
HTF Power of Three is a higher timeframe visualization framework designed to project a developing Daily, Weekly, or Monthly candle directly onto a lower timeframe chart.
The indicator is built around ICT's Power of Three (PO3) concept, allowing traders to monitor the current higher timeframe range and observe how price develops within that structure throughout the session.
Rather than repeatedly switching between execution and higher timeframes, traders can maintain awareness of the active higher timeframe candle while remaining focused on lower timeframe execution.
Many traders use the Daily, Weekly, or Monthly candle as a reference for directional bias, range analysis, and Power of Three development. However, viewing these structures traditionally requires frequent timeframe changes.
HTF Power of Three solves this by projecting the active higher timeframe candle directly onto the chart, allowing traders to continuously monitor:
• Current higher timeframe range
• Relative position of current price within that range
• Expansion of the active candle as new price data forms
• Potential accumulation, manipulation, and distribution development
• Higher timeframe context during lower timeframe execution
Power of Three Framework
The indicator is designed to help traders visualize how price is developing inside the active higher timeframe range.
As the higher timeframe candle evolves, the projected structure updates in real time, allowing traders to monitor changes in range expansion, directional movement, and overall delivery without leaving the execution chart.
By maintaining visibility of the active higher timeframe candle, traders can better understand where current price is trading relative to the projected range and how the developing structure aligns with their market narrative.
Higher Timeframe Reference Levels
The projected candle includes key higher timeframe reference points that help traders maintain context throughout the session.
Optional display elements include:
• Open
• High
• Low
• Current Close
• Range Information
• Price-Based Range Measurements
• Tick-Based Range Measurements
These references allow traders to quickly evaluate the state of the developing higher timeframe candle without requiring separate charts.
Customization
The indicator includes extensive display controls allowing users to customize:
• Daily, Weekly, or Monthly projections
• Projection positioning and offset
• Bullish and bearish candle appearance
• Wick, border, and body styling
• OHLC label visibility
• Range table visibility
• Table positioning
• Range display format
• Daily calculation method options
Intended Use
HTF Power of Three is designed for traders who combine lower timeframe execution with higher timeframe narrative and range analysis.
By projecting the active Daily, Weekly, or Monthly candle directly onto the chart, the indicator provides continuous visibility of higher timeframe structure while reducing the need for constant timeframe switching.

AMD Session TrackerAMD Session Tracker plots the three major forex sessions (Asia, London, New York) as live-growing colored boxes with high/low extension lines, then layers AMD framework analysis on top. Detects in real time when London sweeps the Asian range and when NY sweeps the London range — the core mechanics of the Accumulation / Manipulation / Distribution model.
WHAT IS AMD
AMD stands for Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution — a market structure framework popularized by ICT and SMC traders. The Asian session typically accumulates in a tight range, London manipulates by sweeping that range to grab liquidity above or below it, and New York distributes in the resulting direction. This indicator tracks all three sessions and detects the sweep relationships between them as price action develops.
FEATURES
Live-growing session boxes for Asia (7PM–3AM), London (3AM–8AM), and New York (8AM–12PM) — all times America/New York with automatic DST adjustment
Asian range high/low extension lines projected into London and NY for liquidity targeting
Sweep tracking: detects when London sweeps Asian high or low (manipulation phase) and when NY sweeps London high or low (distribution phase)
Dashboard shows current AMD phase, session high/low/range, and sweep status — sweep cells highlight amber the moment a sweep occurs
Auto-detects pip size for JPY pairs, other forex, metals, indices, and crypto — no manual configuration
Optional 50% midline marker for each session
Six dashboard position options for indicator layout flexibility
Built-in alerts for session opens AND first-time sweeps of prior session highs and lows
HOW TO USE
Watch for London to sweep the Asian range during the manipulation phase — this is the highest-probability AMD setup signal. After the sweep, look for displacement back into the Asian range and a fair value gap to enter on the retracement. NY then often continues in the post-sweep direction (distribution).
Set alerts on "Asia High Swept" and "Asia Low Swept" to get notified the moment manipulation occurs, even if you're away from the chart.
Pairs cleanly with Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Key Swing Levels (KSL) from the same author — three indicators designed to coexist on the same chart with non-overlapping dashboards by default (AMD top-right, KSL also top-right but movable, FVG bottom-left).

AMD Absorption | AnonycryptousAmd Absorption | Anonycryptous
Description & user manual
Why this indicator is different
Most AMD indicators do the same thing. They draw a box for Asia, a box for London, a box for New York, and call it a cycle. They show you where the sessions are. They do not show you what is happening inside them.
Amd Absorption works differently.
It detects the full accumulation-manipulation-distribution cycle mechanically, bar by bar, within whatever session windows you define. It does not assume the cycle follows a fixed schedule. It finds it where it actually forms. And it only confirms a signal when the manipulation sweep shows evidence of institutional absorption — high volume on a bar that barely moves. That is the difference between a sweep that fails and a sweep that leads somewhere.
Most traders can look at a chart in hindsight and identify an AMD cycle. The challenge is identifying it in the moment, on any asset, at any time. That is what this indicator is built to do.
It works on every instrument. Crypto, futures, forex, stocks, commodities. The session windows, detection parameters, and absorption thresholds adapt to the asset class through a preset system. The same logic that detects a liquidity sweep on a bitcoin five-minute chart detects it on a gold two-minute chart, a nasdaq futures one-minute chart, or a forex fifteen-minute chart.

A defined period of price compression. The market moves within a narrow range while smart money builds a position. Amd Absorption detects this as a rolling high-low range falling below a configurable percentage threshold over a set lookback period. During this phase, candles are colored gray.
2.2 Manipulation
After accumulation, price sweeps beyond the range boundary — above the high for a bearish setup, below the low for a bullish setup. This is the liquidity grab. Market orders resting beyond the range are collected. Stops are hit. Retail traders enter in the wrong direction. During this phase, candles are colored in the direction of the sweep — red for a bear sweep, green for a bull sweep.
2.3 Distribution
The real move begins. Price reverses from the sweep extreme and creates a fair value gap — a three-candle imbalance confirming displacement. The signal fires. A distribution target box is drawn from the entry close to the calculated take profit level. Candle coloring continues in the signal direction for the duration of the distribution box, then stops automatically.
The cycle can repeat multiple times within a single session. There is no hard limit on setups per session.
- A note on signal quality versus cycle validity
An AMD cycle that does not produce a signal triangle can still play out fully. The triangle means the manipulation bar showed mechanical absorption — volume confirmed, body was small. That is additional evidence of institutional presence at the sweep level. It raises conviction. It does not make setups without it invalid. Many clean AMD cycles complete without a qualifying absorption bar. The candle coloring will show the full cycle regardless. The triangle is a quality filter, not the only valid setup.
3. The absorption filter
The absorption filter is what separates Amd Absorption from a standard cycle detector.
A manipulation sweep can occur for many reasons. Not every sweep leads to a reversal. The ones that do tend to share a specific characteristic on the sweep bar itself: high volume combined with a small candle body relative to the bar's range.
This pattern means price moved far on heavy participation — a big wick — but the bar closed near where it opened. Something was absorbing the selling or buying pressure. The move did not follow through. That is absorption. It is the mechanical fingerprint of institutional defense of a level.
When the absorption filter is enabled, the signal only fires if the manipulation bar meets both conditions: volume above a configurable multiple of the rolling average, and a body-to-range ratio below a configurable threshold. Bars that qualify are colored in the absorption color and marked with a dot above or below the candle.
The filter can be disabled. With the filter off, every valid AMD + FVG pattern fires a signal. With it on, only the setups with volume confirmation fire. The trade-off is signal frequency versus quality.
4. Presets
Presets automatically configure the four core detection parameters — accumulation lookback, maximum range width, absorption volume multiplier, and absorption body ratio — for each asset class.
Crypto
Lookback: 15 bars. Range: 1.20%. Volume multiplier: 1.2×. Body ratio: 0.55.
Wider range tolerance for volatile 24/7 markets. Looser volume threshold because crypto volume behavior differs from traditional markets.
Futures
Lookback: 20 bars. Range: 0.40%. Volume multiplier: 1.4×. Body ratio: 0.45.
Tight range detection for institutionally driven instruments. Higher volume requirement to match the tick-level precision of futures order flow.
Forex
Lookback: 25 bars. Range: 0.25%. Volume multiplier: 1.3×. Body ratio: 0.50.
Longest lookback and tightest range for the slow, deliberate consolidations common in major pairs. Moderate volume threshold.
Stocks
Lookback: 22 bars. Range: 0.50%. Volume multiplier: 1.4×. Body ratio: 0.50.
Balanced settings between futures and forex. Works across individual equities and equity indices.
Commodities
Lookback: 22 bars. Range: 0.35%. Volume multiplier: 1.4×. Body ratio: 0.50.
Designed for gold, silver, oil, and similar instruments. Tighter than forex but more tolerant than futures. Handles institutional spikes well.
Custom
All four parameters are set manually in the Amd Logic and Absorption Filter groups. Use this when the presets do not match the behavior of a specific instrument or timeframe combination.
Note: the manipulation search window, FVG size filter, and ATR length are always set manually regardless of preset. These three parameters are active for all presets and can be adjusted freely.
5. Sessions
Amd Absorption detects AMD cycles only within active session windows. Outside of sessions, no accumulation is tracked, no sweeps are detected, and candle coloring is inactive. This prevents false setups forming during off-hours thin markets.
Three sessions are configurable: Asia, London, and New York. Each session has an independent toggle, a clock-picker for start and end time, and a background color. All session times are entered in your selected timezone, which can be set to any UTC offset from UTC-12 to UTC+12.
A thin vertical line marks both the opening and closing of each active session. This gives you a clear visual boundary for each session's cycle. The opening line and closing line use the same configurable color.
6. Distribution box
When a signal fires, a distribution target box is drawn from the entry bar forward. The box represents the expected move from entry to take profit.
Two stop loss modes are available:
Atr mode
Stop loss distance is calculated as ATR × the configured multiplier. This gives a consistent distance across all setups regardless of the exact FVG size. Useful for instruments where ATR matches your natural stop placement.
Fvg structure mode
Stop loss is placed at the outer edge of the FVG candle — above the FVG high for a bear setup, below the FVG low for a bull setup. This uses the actual market structure as the invalidation point, which is how many practitioners manage stops on this type of setup.
The take profit is calculated as: entry ± stop distance × RR ratio. The default ratio is 2.0, giving a 1:2 reward-to-risk setup. The ratio is adjustable.
The box width is fixed in bars. It does not track price. When the configured number of bars elapses, candle coloring for the distribution phase stops automatically. For position sizing and stop management, Risk Management Engine by Anonycryptous can be used alongside this indicator.
7. Price levels
Volume-weighted pivot highs and lows are drawn as horizontal reference lines. Pivot highs above current price act as resistance. Pivot lows below current price act as support. Each level shows its exact price value.
Line appearance reflects volume strength. A stronger volume reading at the pivot produces a more visible glow layer. Weaker pivots are more subdued.
Levels disappear automatically when price touches them. The maximum number of visible levels is configurable. These levels serve as structural context and potential distribution targets for confirmed signals.
8. Candle coloring
Amd Absorption colors candles to show the current phase of the cycle. The coloring is active only within session windows.
Gray — accumulation phase. Price is consolidating within the detected range.
Red (bear) or green (bull), dim — manipulation phase. A sweep has been detected and the indicator is searching for a confirming FVG. Colors the sweep candles and any subsequent candles until the FVG fires or the search window expires.
Absorption color (default purple) — absorption bar. A candle within the manipulation phase that meets both volume and body conditions. Also marked with a dot above or below the bar.
Red (bear) or green (bull), dim — distribution phase. Fires from the signal bar and continues until the distribution box width elapses.
Priority: absorption color overrides distribution, which overrides manipulation, which overrides accumulation.
9. Dashboard
The dashboard shows:
- Session — current active session or off
- Preset — active asset preset
- Last signal — direction of the most recent confirmed signal

11. How to use
11.1 Initial setup
1. Select the preset that matches your instrument.
2. Set your timezone to match your location or preferred session reference.
3. Enable the sessions you trade. Set the times to match the actual session opens for your timezone.
4. Choose a stop loss mode. Fvg structure is the more precise option. Atr is more consistent if FVGs on your timeframe vary significantly in size.
5. Set your RR ratio. Default 2.0 is a starting point — adjust to your own risk management rules.
6. If using the custom preset, start with the preset values as a reference and tune from there.
11.2 Reading the chart
Look at the session background. Once a session opens, accumulation detection begins.
When candles turn gray, accumulation is active. The indicator has found a range that qualifies as consolidation. This is the waiting phase.
When candles turn red or green, a sweep has been detected. The indicator is now looking for a confirming FVG. This is the alert phase — something is happening.
When a purple (or absorption-colored) candle appears with a dot, the sweep bar showed absorption. This is the highest-quality moment within the manipulation phase. A signal is likely imminent if a FVG forms on the next bars.
When a signal triangle fires, the full AMD cycle has confirmed with FVG and absorption. The distribution box appears showing the entry level and target.
11.3 Illustrative bull scenario
Educational example only. Not a trading recommendation.
Session opens. Candles turn gray — accumulation detected between two levels. After several bars, price dips below the accumulation low on a high-volume candle that closes near its open. The candle colors purple. A dot appears below it. Two bars later, a gap forms above — price has displaced back through the range. A green triangle fires below the entry bar. The distribution box extends to the right showing the 1:2 target. A support level line sits just below the sweep low confirming the structural context.
11.4 Illustrative bear scenario
Educational example only. Not a trading recommendation.
Session opens in London. Candles turn gray — a tight consolidation forms. Price spikes above the range high on elevated volume. The spike candle has a large wick and closes back below the high — body is less than 40% of the bar range. The candle turns purple. A dot appears above it. A FVG opens below. A red triangle fires above the entry bar. The distribution box drops from entry toward the calculated take profit. A resistance level hovers just above the sweep high.
11.5 Using the absorption filter
With the filter on, the signal only fires when the manipulation sweep bar shows mechanical absorption. This reduces total signals but increases the average quality of what does fire. The dashboard shows abs / setups — how many confirmed absorptions versus total AMD patterns detected. A ratio of 1/5 is normal. The filter is stricter by design.
With the filter off, every valid AMD + FVG pattern produces a signal regardless of volume. Use this to explore how many setups form on your instrument before deciding whether the absorption requirement is helping or filtering too aggressively.
Regardless of filter setting, the candle coloring always shows the full AMD cycle. A setup without a triangle is still visible through the gray accumulation, the colored manipulation phase, and the FVG box. Traders who want to act on every AMD cycle can use the visual coloring as their cue and treat the triangle as an additional confirmation rather than a requirement.
11.6 Timeframe guide
- 1m–3m: scalp setups. Absorption filter on. Tight preset (futures or commodities).
- 5m–15m: intraday setups. All presets apply. Standard settings.
- 30m–1h: swing context. Manipulation window and accumulation lookback can be increased.
- 4h and above: macro context only. Signals will be infrequent. Use to identify major cycle pivots.
12. Tips
The manipulation search window is your primary tuning lever. If the indicator misses setups you can see visually, increase the manipulation window. If it produces setups that do not look like genuine sweeps, tighten the range width or increase the volume multiplier.
The absorption filter is directional. A bear sweep that qualifies will have a large upper wick and a small body. A bull sweep that qualifies will have a large lower wick and a small body. If you see a purple dot on a bar with a small wick, the volume threshold is too low — raise the min volume multiplier.
Price levels are structural context, not signals. Use them to assess whether a distribution target has a logical resting point — a prior support or resistance level aligned with the take profit zone strengthens the setup.
Multiple AMD cycles can form within a single session. The state resets after each completed cycle. If an accumulation forms but no sweep follows within the search window, the state clears automatically and the indicator waits for the next consolidation.
Candle coloring stops at the session close. If candles outside the session boundaries show unexpected colors, check that your session times are correctly set for your timezone.

Indicator
Power of Three (AMD) Map [AGPro Series]Power of Three (AMD) Map
🔹 Overview
The Power of Three (AMD) Map visualizes ICT's foundational session-framework concept directly on the chart: Accumulation → Manipulation → Distribution. For each daily or weekly session, the indicator automatically segments the AMD phases, detects classic liquidity sweeps during Manipulation, and projects a distribution target based on the accumulation range. Built for ICT / Smart Money Concept traders who want session-aware bias, transparent sweep validation, and forward-looking expansion projections.
🔹 Unique Edge vs Other PO3 Scripts
Most PO3 indicators on PulseWire simply highlight time-based session blocks and leave liquidity detection to the user's eye. This implementation distinguishes itself through:
• Phase detection by bar count, not timestamps — ensuring consistent AMD ratios across every timeframe from 15m to 1D
• Adaptive sweep confirmation — accepts both same-bar ICT-strict sweeps (wick + close-back) and 2-bar delayed confirmations, significantly improving setup capture without sacrificing quality
• Dual-reference sweep logic — checks both the previous session's accumulation range AND the current session's accumulation range, capturing sweeps that single-reference scripts miss
• TF-adaptive target multiplier — Daily sessions project targets at 0.7× accumulation range, Weekly sessions at 0.3×, aligned with realistic crypto volatility profiles
• Transparent dual-KPI panel — separates Sweep Rate (how often valid sweeps occur) from Target Hit rate (how often the projected expansion completes), giving traders honest, verifiable performance metrics
🔹 Methodology
Each session is divided into three bar-count-based windows:
• Accumulation (first 33% of expected session bars) — tracks the initial range
• Manipulation (next 17%) — scans for liquidity sweeps against the previous session's accumulation high/low and the current accumulation extremes
• Distribution (remaining 50%) — the expected expansion phase, measured against the projected target
A valid Manipulation sweep requires a wick penetrating a reference level followed by a body close back inside (classic ICT definition). In Adaptive mode, sweeps can also confirm within a 2-bar window. The detected sweep direction determines the PO3 bias: sweeping a high produces a Bearish PO3 (expected downside distribution); sweeping a low produces a Bullish PO3 (expected upside distribution). A target price is projected from either the accumulation midpoint (default, symmetrical expansion) or the sweep extreme, multiplied by the configured ratio.
🔹 Signals & Alerts
Four built-in alert conditions:
• Manipulation phase started — Accumulation complete
• Bullish sweep detected — Low was swept, Bullish PO3 forming
• Bearish sweep detected — High was swept, Bearish PO3 forming
• Distribution target hit — Expansion reached projected level
🔹 Key Inputs
• Session Scope — Auto (TF-adaptive), Daily, or Weekly
• Accumulation / Manipulation window percentages (defaults 33% / 17%)
• Sweep Reference — Previous Accumulation, Current Accumulation, or Both (default)
• Sweep Confirmation — Strict (same-bar) or Adaptive (up to 2-bar, default)
• Target Projection Method — From Accumulation Mid (default) or From Sweep Extreme
• Multiplier Mode — Auto TF-adaptive (default) or Manual
• Historical sessions to display (default 5, max 10)
• Full visual customization — colors, label position, font size, panel position & theme
• Premium visuals — sweep triangle markers, target price label (toggleable)
🔹 How to Use
1. Add the indicator to any crypto or forex chart with timeframe 1H–4H (for Daily PO3) or 1D (for Weekly PO3)
2. Watch the Accumulation range form at the start of each session — this defines the sweep reference level
3. When Manipulation phase begins, monitor for a wick that sweeps the previous accumulation high/low with a body close-back (triangle marker appears on confirmed sweeps)
4. Once a sweep confirms, the panel displays the directional bias (Bullish/Bearish PO3), the projected target price, and a dashed target zone extends toward the session end
5. Use the Sweep Rate and Target Hit percentages in the panel to contextualize reliability on your chosen symbol and timeframe
6. The panel's Completion counter grows as new sessions close — give the script enough historical bars to build meaningful statistics
🔹 Limitations & Transparency
• AMD phase windows are bar-count approximations — real sessions do not cleanly segment into 33/17/50 splits. The indicator is a structural guide, not a timing oracle
• Sweep detection requires the chart timeframe to contain at least 4 bars per session. On 1D charts, use Weekly mode; on 1W charts, the indicator will display a warning
• The projected target is a statistical expectation based on the accumulation range. The Target Hit rate (shown in panel) reflects the historical frequency of this expectation being met on the current symbol/timeframe — typically 40–55% on crypto majors
• Sweep Rate shows the percentage of completed sessions where a valid Manipulation sweep was detected; sessions without sweeps produce no bias and no target
• Historical statistics accumulate from the first bar available on the chart and reset only when the chart reloads
🔹 Risk Disclosure
This indicator is a visualization and analysis tool. It does not generate trade signals, predict price movement, or guarantee outcomes. Past Sweep Rate and Target Hit statistics reflect historical behavior only and do not imply future performance. All trading decisions and risk management remain the responsibility of the user.

cd_bias_profile_Cxcd_bias_profile Cx
Overview:
cd_bias_profile_Cx is an all-in-one professional analysis terminal designed to determine market direction (Bias) based on institutional trading strategies (SMC & ICT). This tool integrates multi-timeframe (MTF) data, institutional liquidity sweeps, SMT divergences, and candle closure confirmations into a single cohesive structure, providing traders with a comprehensive map of institutional Order Flow.
🚀 Advanced Hierarchical Profile Architecture
The indicator visualizes the market through a three-layered hierarchy (Major, Middle, Plot), allowing you to see exactly which higher-tier structure the current price action is serving.
• Smart Timeframe (Auto-TF) Logic: In "Auto" mode, the system automatically selects the most logical hierarchy based on your chart interval using the following sequence:
.
o Example Scenario: If your chart is set to 5-Minute (5m):
Major (Macro Structure): H4 (The outermost container candle)
Middle (Intermediate Structure): H1 (Mid-scale candle)
Plot (Local Structure): 15m (The smallest nested high-timeframe candle)
• Nested Candle Design: Each high-timeframe candle is rendered as transparent boxes with specific body colors, encapsulating the lower-tier price action (OHLC) within it.
• Cyclical Refresh: Profile drawings reset automatically at the opening of every new Major timeframe candle. This ensures the analysis remains focused on the freshest institutional cycle.
🧠 Bias Algorithm & Decision Mechanism
To eliminate subjective interpretation, the algorithm operates on a purely mathematical logic based solely on Candle Closures (Close). It generates three distinct outcomes:
1. Reversal:
o Condition 1: A liquidity Sweep must occur at the HTF level.
o Condition 2 (SMT Confirmation): If no sweep is detected on the primary pair, the algorithm automatically scans correlated assets (e.g., checking GBPUSD or DXY for an EURUSD trade). An SMT Divergence in a correlated asset is accepted as institutional manipulation confirmation.
o Final Trigger: Once a CISD (Change in State of Delivery) occurs on the Lower Timeframe (LTF), the "Reversal" bias is confirmed.
2. Continuation: When a high-timeframe candle closes convincingly above/below the previous candle's High or Low, the algorithm reports that the current trend maintains its strength.
3. Indeterminate: In "non-delivery" zones where the market neither sweeps liquidity nor creates a structural break, the algorithm remains neutral to prevent overtrading.
🚨 Alert Center
The alert system is designed for high-confluence setups, ensuring you never miss a structural shift:
• Flexible TF Selection: You can manually toggle which of the 5 tracked timeframes (1M, 1W, 1D, etc.) should trigger notifications based on your strategy.
• "Any of Them" Function: When enabled, an instant notification is sent the moment a "Reversal" or "Continuation" signal forms on any of your selected timeframes.
• Directional Filtering: You can filter alerts to receive only "Bullish" or only "Bearish" setups, allowing you to align with your primary macro bias.
⚙️ Pro Tips for Usage
• Invalidation Lines: The dashed lines on the chart indicate the exact price level where the institutional bias is "invalidated." These serve as professional-grade stop-loss levels.
• B-ADJ Support: For Futures traders, back-adjustment settings are optimized within the code for seamless data transition.
• Manual Mode: If you wish to use custom timeframes not found in the standard sequence (e.g., 2-hour or 3-day charts), you can define them via the "Manuel" settings toggle.
• High-probability trade setups can be expected when there is multi-timeframe alignment in the same direction.
• Strategic Use Cases: The indicator is optimized for trading Distribution Phases within advanced frameworks. Whether you are looking for the C3 candle in the Universal Model or the Distribution (D) phase in an AMD (Power of 3) setup, this tool provides the necessary structural confirmation.
• User Discretion: Please note that this is a directional bias tool. While it identifies which direction is supported by multi-timeframe alignment, the final execution and entry management on lower timeframes are the user's responsibility.
• Always remember to seek additional confluence before executing a trade.
Chart Visual
Profile Visual
Example (SMT Usage) : On the chart, while the 10:00 H1 candle on GBPUSD sweeps its previous candle's liquidity, its correlated pair EURUSD does not show a sweep. If the "Use SMT for Bias" option is enabled, this SMT divergence with the correlated pair is accepted as a valid HTF Sweep. Upon the new candle open, once a 5m CISD confirmation occurs on EURUSD, the Bias Table will display "Bearish" for the H1/5m row.

cd_Quarterly_cycles_SSMT_TPD_CxGeneral
This indicator is designed in line with the Quarterly Theory to display each cycle on the chart, either boxed and/or in candlestick form.
Additionally, it performs inter-cycle divergence analysis ( SSMT ) with the correlated symbol, Terminus Price Divergence ( TPD ), Precision Swing Point ( PSP ) analysis, and potential Power of Three ( PO3 ) analysis.
Special thanks to @HandlesHandled for his great indicator, which I used while preparing the cycles content.
Details & Usage:
Optional cycles available: Weekly, Daily, 90m, and Micro cycles.
Displaying/removing cycles can be controlled from the menu (cycles / candles / labels).
All selected cycles can be shown, or you can limit the number of displayed cycles (min: 2, max: 4).
The summary table can be toggled on/off and repositioned.
What’s in the summary table?
• Below the header, the correlated symbol used in the analysis is displayed (e.g., SSMT → US500).
• If available, live and previous bar results of the SSMT analysis are shown.
• Under the PSP & TPD section, results are displayed when conditions are met.
• Under Alerts, the real-time status of conditions defined in the menu is shown.
• Under Potential AMD, possible PO3 analysis results are displayed.
Analysis & Symbol Selection:
To run analyses, a correlated symbol must first be defined with the main symbol.
Default pairs are preloaded (see below), but users should adjust them according to their exchange and instruments.
If no correlated pair is defined, cycles are displayed only as boxes/candles.
Once defined pairs are opened on the chart, analyses load automatically.
Pairs listed on the same row in the menu are automatically linked, so no need to re-enter them across rows.
SSMT Analysis:
Based on the chart’s timeframe, divergences are searched across Weekly, Daily, 90m, and Micro cycles.
The code will not produce results for smaller cycles than the current timeframe.
(Example: On H1, Micro cycles will not be displayed.)
Results are obtained by comparing the highs and lows of consecutive cycles in the same period.
If one pair makes a new high/low while the other does not, this divergence is added to SSMT results.
The difference from classic SMT is that cycles are used instead of bars.
PSP & TPD Analysis:
A correlated symbol must be defined.
For PSP, timeframe options are added to the menu.
Users toggle timeframes on/off by checking/unchecking boxes.
In selected timeframes, PSP & TPD analysis is performed.
• PSP: If candlesticks differ in color (bullish/bearish) between symbols and the bar is at a high/low of the timeframe (and higher/lower than the bars before/after it), it is identified as a PSP. Divergences between pairs are interpreted as potential reversal signals.
• TPD: Once a PSP occurs, the closing price of the previous bar and the opening price of the next bar are compared. If one symbol shows continuation while the other does not, it is marked as a divergence.
Example:
Let’s assume Pair 1 and Pair 2 are selected in the menu with the H4 timeframe, and our cycle is Weekly (Box).
For Pair 1, the H4 candle at the Weekly high level:
• Is positioned at the Weekly high,
• Its high is above both the previous and the next candle,
• It closed bearish (open > close).
For Pair 2, the same H4 candle closed bullish (close > open).
→ PSP conditions are met.
For TPD, we now check the candles before and after this PSP (H4) candle on both pairs.
Comparing the previous candle’s close with the next candle’s open, we see that:
• In Pair 1, the next open is lower than the previous close,
• In Pair 2, the next open is higher than the previous close.
Pair 1 → close > open
Pair 2 → close < open
Since they are not aligned in the same direction, this is interpreted as a divergence — a potential reversal signal.
While TPD results are displayed in the summary table, whenever the conditions are met in the selected timeframes, the signals are also plotted directly on the chart. (🚦, X)
• Higher timeframe TPD example:
• Current timeframe TPD example:
Alerts:
The indicator can be conditioned based on aligned timeframes defined within the concept.
Example (assuming random active rows in the screenshot):
• Weekly Bullish SSMT → Tf2 (menu-selected) Bullish TPD → Daily Bullish SSMT.
Selecting “none” in the menu means that condition is not required.
When an alert is triggered, it will be displayed in the corresponding row of the table.
• Example with only condition 3 enabled:
Potential PO3 Analysis:
According to Quarterly Theory, price moves in cycles, and the same structures are assumed to continue in smaller timeframes.
From classical PO3 knowledge: before the main move, price first manipulates in the opposite direction to trap buyers/sellers, then makes its true move.
The cyclical sequence is:
(A)ccumulation → (M)anipulation → (D)istribution → (R)eversal / Continuation.
Within cycle candles, the first letter of each phase is displayed.
So how does the analysis work?
If the active cycle is in (M)anipulation or (D)istribution phase, and it sweeps the previous cycle’s high or low but then pulls back inside, this is flagged in the summary table as a possible PO3 signal.
In other words, it reflects the alignment of theoretical sequence with real-time price action.
Confluence with SSMT and TPD conditions further strengthens the expectation.
Final Note:
No single marking or alert carries meaning on its own — it must always be evaluated in the context of your concept knowledge.
Instead of trading purely on expectations, align bias + trend + entry confirmations to improve your success rate.
Feedback and suggestions are welcome.
Happy trading!

Grover Llorens Activator Strategy AnalysisThe Grover Llorens Activator is a trailing stop indicator deeply inspired by the parabolic SAR indicator, and aim to provide early exit points and reversal detection. The indicator was posted not so long ago, you can find it here :
Today a strategy using the indicator is proposed, and its profitability is analyzed on 3 different markets with the main time frame being 1 hour, remember that lower time frames involve lower absolute price changes, therefore we are way more affected by the spread, and we can require a larger position sizing depending on our investment target, trading higher time-frames is always a good practice and this is why 1 hour is selected. Based on the result we might make various conclusions regarding the indicator accuracy and might have ideas on future improvements of the indicator.
I'am not great when it comes to strategy design, i still hope to share correct and useful information in this post, let me know your thoughts on the post format and if i should make more of these.
Setup And Rules
The analysis is solely based on the indicator signals, money management isn't taken into account, this allow us to have an idea on the indicator robustness and resilience, particularly on extremely volatile markets and ones exhibiting a chaotic structure, altho it is normally good practice to close any position before a market closure in order to avoid any potential major gaps.
The settings used are 480 for length and 14 for mult, this create relatively mid term signals that are suited for a trend indicator such as the Grover Llorens Activator, unfortunately we can't infer the indicator optimal settings, thats how it is with any technical indicator anyway.
Here are the rules of our strategy :
long : closing price cross over the indicator
short : closing price cross under the indicator
We use constant position sizing, once a signal is triggered all the previous positions are closed.
Description Of The Statistics Used
Various statistics are presented in this post, here is a brief description of the main ones :
Percent Profitability (higher = better): Percentage of winning trades, that is : winning trades/total number of trades × 100
Maximum Drawdown (lower = better) : The highest difference between a peak and a valley in the balance, that is : peak - valley , in percentage : (peak - valley)/peak × 100
Profit Factor (higher = better) : Gross profit divided by gross loss, values under 1 represent gross losses superior to the gross profits
Remember that more volatility = more risk, since higher absolute price changes can logically cause larger losses.
EURUSD
The first market analyzed is the Forex market with the EURUSD major pair with a position sizing of 1000 units (1 micro lot). Since October EURUSD is not showing any particular strong trend but posses a discrete rising motion, fortunately cycles can be observed.
The equity was rising until two trades appeared causing a decline in the equity. Before October a bearish market could be observed.
We can see that the equity is rising, the trend still posses various retracements that affect our indicator, however we can see that the indicator totally nail the end of the trend, thats the power of converging toward the price.
In short :
$ 86.63 net profit
340 closed trades
37.65 % profitable (thats a lot of loosing trades)
1.19 profit factor

Applying a spread would create negative results (in general the average spread is used), not a great start...
BTCUSD
The cryptocurrency market is relatively more volatile than others, which also mean potentially higher returns, we test the indicator using certainly the most traded cryptocurrency, BTCUSD. We will use a position sizing of 1 unit.
In the case of BTCUSD the strategy balance is relatively stationary around the initial capital, with of course high dispersion.
from september to december the market is bearish with various ranging periods, no apparent cycles can be observed, except maybe in the ranging period of october, this ranging period is followed by a non linear trend (relatively parabolic) that the indicator failed to capture in its integrity (this is a recurrent problem and it is starting to piss me off xD).
In short :
$ 2010.64 net profit (aka how i bet the crypto market)
395 closed trades
38.23 % profitable
1.036 profit factor
$ 5738.01 max drawdown (aka how i lost to the crypto market)
AMD
AMD stand for Advanced Micro Devices and is a company focused on the development of computer technology, i love the microprocessor market and i really like AMD who start this year in a pretty great way with a net bullish trend.
The performance of the indicator on AMD is decent (at last !) with the equity producing many new higher highs. The indicator performance still drop in the middle end of 2019 with a large equity drawdown of 17$ caused by the gap of august 8. Unfortunately AMD, like lot of well behaving stocks can only tells us that the indicator has good performances on heavily trending markets with no excess of noise or chaotic structures.
In short :
$ 17.86 net profit (Enough for a consistent lunch)
295 closed trades
36.27 % profitable
1.414 profit factor
$ 10.37 max drawdown.
Conclusion
A strategy using the recently proposed Grover Llorens activator has been presented. We can easily conclude that the indicator can't possibly generate long term returns under chaotic and volatile markets, and could even produce unnecessary trades in trending markets without much parasitic fluctuations such as noise and retracements (think about a simple linear trend) since the indicator converge toward the price and would therefore automatically cross over/under the trend, thus guaranteeing a false signal.
However we have seen its ability to provide accurate early reversal detection shine from time to time, thus over performing lagging indicators in this aspect, however the duration of price fluctuations isn't fixed at a certain period, the rate of convergence should be way faster during volatile fluctuations, of moderate speed during more cyclic fluctuations, and really slow with apparent long term trends, this could be achieved by making the indicator adaptive, but it won't really make it necessarily perform better.
That said i still believe that converging trend indicators are really interesting and aim to capture the non lasting behavior of price fluctuations, they shouldn't receive so much hate (think about the poor p-sar).
Thanks for reading !
