All-in-One SMC ProAll-in-One SMC Pro: CHOCH • BOS • FVG • Order Blocks • Liquidity + Discount/Premium
This open-source overlay indicator combines the five most widely used Smart Money / ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts into a single, customizable tool:
- Break of Structure (BOS)
- Change of Character (CHOCH)
- Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
- Order Blocks (mitigation blocks)
- Liquidity grabs (equal highs/lows)
- Discount / Premium zones
Why this combination?
SMC traders rarely use these concepts in isolation. A complete workflow typically involves:
1. Identifying market structure direction (BOS) or reversal (CHOCH)
2. Locating high-probability entry zones (Order Blocks, FVGs)
3. Confirming institutional manipulation (liquidity grabs of equal highs/lows)
4. Understanding price positioning relative to value (discount = buy bias, premium = sell bias)
Putting them all in one script reduces chart clutter, improves confluence visibility, and helps newer SMC users see how the pieces connect — without needing 5–7 separate indicators.
Core Concepts & Detection Logic
1. Break of Structure (BOS)
- Bullish BOS: price closes above previous swing high
- Bearish BOS: price closes below previous swing low
- Swing points detected with user-defined lookback (default 5 bars left/right)
2. Change of Character (CHOCH)
- Bullish CHOCH: price makes lower low but closes above previous swing high (bearish structure broken → bullish reversal signal)
- Bearish CHOCH: price makes higher high but closes below previous swing low (bullish structure broken → bearish reversal signal)
3. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
- Bullish FVG: gap up after a bearish candle (low > high )
- Bearish FVG: gap down after a bullish candle (high < low )
- Sensitivity controlled via ATR multiplier (default 0.1 × ATR(14))
- Dashed horizontal lines mark the gap boundaries
4. Order Blocks
- Bullish OB: previous swing low after bullish BOS (potential demand zone)
- Bearish OB: previous swing high after bearish BOS (potential supply zone)
- Drawn as semi-transparent boxes extending rightward (lookback period adjustable)
5. Liquidity Grabs
- Detects clusters of equal highs/lows (default 3-bar lookback)
- Labels appear when price reverses after touching equal levels (classic stop-hunt / liquidity raid)
6. Discount / Premium Zones
- Equilibrium proxy = (H + L + C) / 3
- Discount: price below ~0.5% of equilibrium (green tint – buy bias area)
- Premium: price above ~0.5% of equilibrium (red tint – sell bias area)
Visual Customization
- Toggle each element independently (BOS, CHOCH, FVG, OB, Liquidity, Disc/Prem)
- Separate bullish/bearish colors + dedicated FVG/OB/Liquidity colors
- Max lines/labels set high (500) to handle longer histories
Alerts (built-in conditions)
- Bullish / Bearish BOS
- Bullish / Bearish CHOCH
- Bullish / Bearish FVG formation
How to Use
- Best on 5m–4h timeframes for forex, indices, crypto, gold (high-liquidity instruments)
- Typical SMC workflow example:
1. Look for CHOCH → potential trend reversal
2. Wait for BOS in new direction → structure confirmation
3. Seek entry at Order Block or FVG mitigation in discount/premium zone
4. Liquidity grabs near swing extremes often precede strong moves
- Combine with session times, news events, or higher-timeframe bias — never trade signals in isolation
- Adjust swingLen (3–10) for sensitivity: lower = more signals, higher = cleaner structure
Publishing Recommendation
- Publish with a clean chart (recommended: 15m–1h EURUSD, XAUUSD, BTCUSD, or NQ1!)
- Show a recent CHOCH → BOS → OB/FVG confluence sequence
- Remove all other indicators, drawings, and unnecessary gridlines
Always use discretion, proper risk management, and backtest thoroughly.

Market Structure Dashboard | Flux ChartsGENERAL OVERVIEW
Market Structure Dashboard is a multi-timeframe market structure analysis indicator. It combines EMA trend detection, swing high/low tracking, market structure labels, Order Block detection, Fair Value Gap detection, liquidity sweep detection, volume analysis, volatility analysis, trading sessions, ICT killzones, a weighted trend bias system, and HTF levels into one unified dashboard. Each component is calculated independently across up to 7 configurable timeframes and displayed together in a single organized view.
(Screenshot: Full dashboard overview - all sections visible)
(Screenshot: Dashboard on a busy chart showing OB/FVG boxes, swing labels, HTF lines)
WHAT IS THE THEORY BEHIND THIS INDICATOR?
The core idea is that a trade setup becomes more reliable when multiple timeframes agree on direction. A bullish signal on a 5-minute chart carries more weight when the 15-minute, 1-hour, and daily timeframes also show bullish conditions. Analyzing each timeframe separately is both time-consuming and prone to error. The Market Structure Dashboard automates this process by calculating key metrics across all enabled timeframes and presenting them side by side.
The indicator draws from two established trading methodologies. Smart Money Concepts (SMC) focuses on identifying institutional footprints in price action through patterns like Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, and liquidity sweeps. Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology emphasizes time-based analysis through specific trading windows called killzones and the importance of previous day, week, and month highs and lows.
Rather than treating these concepts in isolation, the dashboard organizes them into a layered framework. Structure shows where the market has been. Zones show where it may react. Sessions and killzones show when activity tends to increase. The trend bias system combines all factors into a single weighted score, giving traders a quick read on overall market sentiment across timeframes.
The purpose of the Market Structure Dashboard is to present the current market activity across multiple timeframes and how these conditions relate to earlier market structure, volume, and timing.

Dashboard Customization
Each component operates independently while sharing the same underlying market structure logic. All features are calculated across up to 7 user-configurable timeframes and displayed in a unified dashboard. Detailed explanations for each component are provided in the sections that follow.
EMA TREND DETECTION
🔹 What is an EMA?
An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent price data. Unlike a Simple Moving Average that weights all prices equally, the EMA responds faster to recent price changes while still considering historical data. Traders use EMAs to identify trend direction and dynamic support/resistance levels.
When price trades above the EMA, the short-term trend is considered bullish. When price trades below the EMA, the short-term trend is considered bearish. The distance between price and EMA can indicate trend strength, with larger distances suggesting stronger momentum.
🔹 How the Indicator Uses EMA
The dashboard calculates a 9-period EMA (configurable) for each enabled timeframe. The EMA Trend column displays both direction and distance.
◇ Direction is shown with an up arrow (↑) when price is above EMA, or a down arrow (↓) when price is below EMA.
◇ Distance is displayed as percentage, price, or pips based on the Distance Display setting. For example, "+0.45% ↑" means price is 0.45% above the EMA on that timeframe.
◇ Color coding shows green when price is above EMA (bullish) and red when price is below EMA (bearish).
The EMA can optionally be plotted as a visual overlay on the chart. It can also be included as a factor in the Trend Bias calculation, where each timeframe's EMA direction contributes to the overall bias score.
(Screenshot: EMA column showing bearish readings - red, ↓)
SWING HIGH/LOW TRACKING
🔹 What are Swing Highs and Lows?
A swing high is a price peak where a candle's high is higher than the highs of surrounding candles. A swing low is a price trough where a candle's low is lower than the lows of surrounding candles. These points represent short-term reversals and define the boundaries of price movement.
Swing points are foundational to market structure analysis. Breaking a swing high suggests bullish momentum. Breaking a swing low suggests bearish momentum. The sequence of swing points creates market structure patterns that reveal trend direction.
🔹 How the Indicator Tracks Swing Highs/Lows?
The indicator detects swing points using a configurable Swing Length parameter (default: 5). A swing high is confirmed when a candle's high is higher than the specified number of candles on both sides. A swing low is confirmed when a candle's low is lower than the specified number of candles on both sides. This confirmation requirement means swing points are identified with a delay, ensuring they are valid pivots rather than temporary spikes. This same Swing Length setting is also used by Order Block detection and Market Structure labels, so adjusting it affects all three features.
◇ The Swing H/L column displays a visual position indicator showing where price sits within the current swing range. A dot moves along a bar between L (swing low) and H (swing high) to show exact position.
◇ When price breaks outside the range, arrows indicate the direction. An up arrow (↑) appears when price breaks above the swing high. A swing high break indicates that buyers have pushed price beyond the previous peak, suggesting bullish momentum and a potential continuation higher.
(Screenshot: Price above Swing High)
A down arrow (↓) appears when price breaks below the swing low. A swing low break indicates that sellers have pushed price beyond the previous trough, suggesting bearish momentum and a potential continuation lower
(Screenshot: Price breaks Swing Low)
When a liquidity sweep occurs (price breaks a level then reclaims it), special arrows appear: ⤴ for a swept and reclaimed low, ⤵ for a swept and reclaimed high. A swept and reclaimed swing means price broke beyond the level, likely triggering stop-loss orders resting beyond it, but then reversed back inside the range. This suggests the breakout was a false move and the opposite direction may follow. Liquidity sweeps are explained in detail in the Liquidity Sweep & Reclaim Detection section below.
◇ Color coding shows green when price is in the lower half of the range or breaks above the swing high, and red when price is in the upper half or breaks below the swing low.
(Screenshot)
◇ Tooltips provide additional context when hovering over any Swing H/L cell, such as "Price is nearing swing low on 15M" or "Price above swing high on 1H - swing high broken."
MARKET STRUCTURE LABELS (HH/HL/LH/LL)
🔹 What is Market Structure?
Market structure refers to the pattern of swing highs and swing lows that price creates over time. By comparing consecutive swing points, each new swing can be classified into one of four types.
◇ HH (Higher High): A swing high that is higher than the previous swing high, indicating bullish momentum.
◇ HL (Higher Low): A swing low that is higher than the previous swing low, indicating bullish momentum.
◇ LH (Lower High): A swing high that is lower than the previous swing high, indicating bearish momentum.
◇ LL (Lower Low): A swing low that is lower than the previous swing low, indicating bearish momentum.
(Screenshot: Bullish and Bearish Swing Points)
Bullish structure consists of HH and HL patterns, where price makes higher highs and higher lows. Bearish structure consists of LH and LL patterns, where price makes lower highs and lower lows. Mixed structure contains conflicting patterns and indicates consolidation or potential trend change.
🔹 How the Indicator Displays Market Structure
The Structure column shows the last three structure labels in sequence along with an overall bias arrow.
◇ "LL-LH-HL →" indicates mixed structure with no clear direction.
◇ "HH-HL-HH ↑" indicates bullish structure with higher highs and higher lows.
◇ "LH-LL-LH ↓" indicates bearish structure with lower highs and lower lows.
(Screenshot: Dashboard showing neutral, bearish and bullish indication across different timeframes)
The indicator tracks each new swing point as it forms, compares it to the previous swing of the same type, and assigns the appropriate label. Market Structure labels use the same Swing Length setting as Swing High/Low tracking, so both features stay synchronized. Structure bias is determined by the most recent high type and low type combined. If the last swing high was HH and the last swing low was HL, bias is bullish. If the last swing high was LH and the last swing low was LL, bias is bearish. Any other combination shows neutral.
Color coding shows green for bullish structure, red for bearish structure, and gray for mixed or neutral structure.
ORDER BLOCK DETECTION
🔹 What is an Order Block?
An Order Block is a concept from Smart Money analysis representing a candle or consolidation area where institutional orders may have been placed. In SMC methodology, Order Blocks are identified as the last opposing candle before a significant price move that breaks market structure.
◇ A Bullish Order Block is the last bearish candle before a rally that breaks a swing high. When price returns to this zone, it may find support.
◇ A Bearish Order Block is the last bullish candle before a drop that breaks a swing low. When price returns to this zone, it may find resistance.
Order Blocks are considered "mitigated" when price trades completely through them, suggesting the institutional orders have been filled.
🔹 How the Indicator Detects Order Blocks
The detection algorithm follows a specific sequence to identify valid Order Blocks.
◇ Step 1: The indicator tracks swing highs and swing lows using the configured Swing Length setting (shared with Swing High/Low tracking and Market Structure labels).
◇ Step 2: When price breaks above a swing high, the indicator identifies a bullish breakout. When price breaks below a swing low, it identifies a bearish breakout.
◇ Step 3: For a bullish Order Block, the indicator finds the candle with the lowest low between the broken swing high and the current bar. For a bearish Order Block, it finds the candle with the highest high between the broken swing low and the current bar.
◇ Step 4: The Order Block zone is created spanning from that candle's low to its high.
◇ Step 5: Mitigation is applied when price closes through the Order Block. Bullish OBs are mitigated when price closes below the zone. Bearish OBs are mitigated when price closes above the zone.
The Order Block column shows the nearest unmitigated Order Block for each timeframe. "IN BULL OB ↑" means price is currently inside a bullish Order Block. "BULL OB (5.4%) ↑" means the nearest OB is bullish and 5.5% away. "NONE" means no unmitigated Order Blocks exist on that timeframe.
(Screenshot: Nearest order block is Bull OB)
(Screenshot: Price in Bear OB)
FAIR VALUE GAP DETECTION
🔹What is a Fair Value Gap?
A Fair Value Gap (FVG), also called an imbalance, is a three-candle pattern where a gap exists between the first and third candle that the middle candle did not fill. This gap represents an area where price moved quickly, creating an imbalance in the market.
◇ A Bullish FVG forms when the first candle's high is lower than the third candle's low, creating an upward gap. When price returns to this gap, it may find support.
◇ A Bearish FVG forms when the first candle's low is higher than the third candle's high, creating a downward gap. When price returns to this gap, it may find resistance.
FVGs are considered mitigated when price wicks into the gap, filling the inefficiency.
🔹 How the Indicator Detects FVGs
The detection logic checks for the three-candle gap pattern with specific conditions.
◇ For a Bullish FVG, the current candle's low must be above the candle from three bars ago's high (gap exists), and the middle candle must be bullish (displacement candle).
◇ For a Bearish FVG, the current candle's high must be below the candle from three bars ago's low (gap exists), and the middle candle must be bearish (displacement candle).
◇ The FVG zone spans from the gap's bottom to its top.
◇ Mitigation occurs when price wicks below the gap bottom for bullish FVGs, or above the gap top for bearish FVGs. Note that FVG mitigation is more sensitive than Order Block mitigation.
FVGs only need a wick to touch them, while Order Blocks require a close through them.
The FVG column displays similarly to Order Blocks. "IN BULL FVG ↑" means price is inside a bullish Fair Value Gap. "BULL FVG (0.2%) ↑" means the nearest FVG is bullish and 0.2% away. "NONE" means no unmitigated FVGs exist on that timeframe.
(Screenshot: Price in Bull FVG)
(Screenshot: Bear FVG +3.4% away)
LIQUIDITY SWEEP & RECLAIM DETECTION
🔹 What is a Liquidity Sweep?
Liquidity refers to resting orders in the market, particularly stop-loss orders. Traders commonly place stops just beyond swing highs and swing lows, creating pools of liquidity at these levels. A liquidity sweep occurs when price breaks beyond a swing point, potentially triggering stops, but then reverses and closes back inside the range.
◇ A Bullish Liquidity Sweep occurs when price breaks below a swing low, then reverses and closes back above it. This pattern suggests potential buying interest after weak hands have been stopped out.
◇ A Bearish Liquidity Sweep occurs when price breaks above a swing high, then reverses and closes back below it. This pattern suggests potential selling interest after weak hands have been stopped out.
🔹 How the Indicator Detects Liquidity Sweeps
The indicator tracks whether each swing level has been broken and then reclaimed.
◇ A swing low is marked as broken when price trades below it. A swing high is marked as broken when price trades above it.
◇ A reclaim is detected when price closes back above a broken swing low (bullish) or back below a broken swing high (bearish).
◇ The break and reclaim flags reset when a new swing point forms, ensuring fresh detection for each level.
When a liquidity sweep is detected, the Swing H/L column displays special indicators. The ⤴ symbol indicates a bullish liquidity sweep where price swept the low and reclaimed. The ⤵ symbol indicates a bearish liquidity sweep where price swept the high and reclaimed. Tooltips provide additional context such as "Liquidity sweep - price swept swing low and reclaimed on 15M."

VOLUME ANALYSIS
🔹 What is Volume Analysis?
Volume represents the number of shares, contracts, or units traded during a given period. High volume suggests strong interest and participation behind a price move. Low volume suggests weak interest and moves may lack follow-through. Comparing current volume to average volume helps identify unusual activity.
🔹 How the Indicator Analyzes Volume The dashboard calculates current volume as a percentage of its 20-period simple moving average.
◇ The Volume column displays a visual bar using filled and empty blocks to represent volume level relative to average.
◇ Volume states are classified as EXTREME (over 200% of average), HIGH (over 120%), NORMAL (over 80%), LOW (over 50%), or VERY LOW (50% or less).
(Screenshot: Extreme Volume)
◇ Color coding shows yellow for extreme volume, orange for high volume, and gray for normal, low, and very low.
◇ Tooltips show the exact percentage, such as "Volume is currently at 145% of average."
VOLATILITY ANALYSIS
🔹 What is Volatility?
Volatility measures how much price fluctuates over a given period. High volatility means large price swings. Low volatility means small price movements. The Average True Range (ATR) is a common volatility measure that calculates the average of true ranges over a period.
🔹 How the Indicator Measures Volatility
The dashboard calculates a 14-period ATR and compares it to its own 20-period average (configurable).
◇ The Volatility column displays the current state as HIGH (ATR over 130% of average), NORMAL (ATR between 70-130% of average), or LOW (ATR under 70% of average).
◇ Color coding shows red for high volatility, gray for normal, and green for low volatility.
◇ Tooltips provide context such as "Volatility is currently high" or "Volatility is currently low."
Low volatility often precedes significant moves, making it a useful setup indicator when combined with price at key levels.
(Screenshot: High Volatility)
TRADING SESSIONS
🔹 What are Trading Sessions?
Financial markets have varying activity levels throughout the day. Trading is typically divided into three major sessions based on which financial centers are open.
◇ Asian Session runs from 7:00 PM to 3:00 AM EST. It is characterized by generally lower volatility and ranging price action
◇ London Session runs from 3:00 AM to 12:00 PM EST. It is characterized by higher volatility and trending moves
◇ New York Session runs from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM EST. It has high volatility especially during the London overlap from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM EST, affecting USD pairs and all majors.
🔹 How the Indicator Displays Sessions
The Session column shows the current session name in the first row as ASIAN, LONDON, NEW YORK, or OFF HOURS (between sessions from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM EST).
◇ The second row shows a progress bar that fills as the session advances, with each block representing approximately one hour.
◇ Sessions are color-coded as blue for Asian, green for London, orange for New York, and gray for off hours. These colors can be customized in the settings
◇ The indicator uses New York (EST) timezone for all session calculations and includes replay mode support.
(Asian Session and Killzone)
ICT KILLZONES
🔹 What are Killzones?
Killzones are specific time windows within each trading session when market activity tends to be higher. These windows are derived from ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology and represent times when significant moves are more likely to occur.
◇ Asian Killzone runs from 8:00 PM to 12:00 AM EST and often sets the initial range for the day.
◇ London Killzone runs from 2:00 AM to 5:00 AM EST and covers the London open when major moves are common.
◇ New York AM Killzone runs from 9:30 AM to 11:00 AM EST and covers the NYSE open, a high volume period.
◇ New York Lunch runs from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM EST and typically has lower activity and consolidation.
◇ New York PM Killzone runs from 1:30 PM to 4:00 PM EST when afternoon continuation moves occur.
🔹 How the Indicator Displays Killzones
The Killzone column shows the current killzone in the first row as ASIAN KZ, LONDON KZ, NY AM KZ, NY LUNCH, NY PM KZ, or NO KILLZONE when outside all killzones.
◇ When outside a killzone, the second row shows a countdown to the next killzone, such as "NY AM KZ in 2h:15m."
◇ Killzones are color-coded as blue for Asian, green for London, orange for NY AM, gray for NY Lunch, and purple for NY PM. These colors can be customized in the settings
TREND BIAS SYSTEM
🔹 What is Trend Bias?
The Trend Bias System aggregates multiple factors across all enabled timeframes to produce a single directional bias score. Instead of analyzing each factor and timeframe separately, this system provides a weighted summary of overall market sentiment.
🔹 How the Indicator Calculates Trend Bias The calculation involves three components working together.
(Screenshot: BTC Bearish Trend)
◇ Factors determine what contributes to bias. Users can enable or disable Structure (market structure bias), Order Block (direction of nearest OB), FVG (direction of nearest FVG), EMA Trend (price position relative to EMA), and Swing Position (where price sits in the swing range). Each enabled factor contributes +1 for bullish, -1 for bearish, or 0 for neutral per timeframe.
◇ Weights determine how much each timeframe matters. Each timeframe has a configurable weight from 0 to 10. Default weights are 1 for 1M and 5M, 2 for 15M, 1H, and 4H, 3 for Daily, and 4 for Weekly. Higher weights mean that timeframe contributes more to the final score.
(Screenshot: Gold Bullish Trend)
◇ Score Calculation combines factors and weights. For each active timeframe, the sum of factor scores is multiplied by the timeframe's weight. The total score is the sum of all timeframe scores. The maximum possible score is the sum of each weight multiplied by the number of enabled factors. The bias percentage equals the total score divided by the maximum possible score, multiplied by 100.
◇ Bias Labels are assigned based on percentage. Over 50% shows BULLISH ↑. Between 20% and 50% shows LEAN BULL ↑. Between -20% and 20% shows NEUTRAL →. Between -50% and -20% shows LEAN BEAR ↓. Below -50% shows BEARISH ↓.
The Trend Bias column displays the bias label in the first row and the raw score in the second row, such as "+22/60" meaning 22 points out of 60 possible.
HTF LEVELS (PDH/L, PWH/L, PMH/L)
🔹 What are HTF Levels?
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Levels are significant price points from previous completed periods. These levels represent clear, objective reference points that many traders watch.
◇ PDH/PDL (Previous Day High/Low) are the high and low of the previous completed trading day and act as intraday support and resistance.
◇ PWH/PWL (Previous Week High/Low) are the high and low of the previous completed week and are significant levels for swing trading.
◇ PMH/PML (Previous Month High/Low) are the high and low of the previous completed month and are major levels for position trading.
🔹 How the Indicator Displays HTF Levels The HTF Levels Dashboard section (optional) shows a swing-style position bar for each enabled level, displaying where price sits within the previous day, week, or month range.
◇ The same liquidity sweep detection applies to HTF levels. If price sweeps PDL and reclaims, the ⤴ indicator appears.
(Screenshot: Previous Week Low Swept)
◇ Visual overlays can plot HTF level lines on the chart with customizable colors and line styles.
◇ When multiple levels are close together, labels automatically combine. For example, "PDH/PWH" appears when both levels are at similar prices, or "PDL/PWL/PML" when all three lows align.
(Screenshot: PWH/PMH labels combined when Previous Week Low and Previous Month Low align)
VISUAL OVERLAYS
Beyond the dashboard, the indicator offers optional visual overlays that plot directly on the price chart.
🔹 Order Block Zones
When enabled, Order Blocks appear as semi-transparent rectangular boxes. Green boxes represent bullish Order Blocks and red boxes represent bearish Order Blocks. Boxes span from the OB candle's low to its high and extend forward based on the Extend setting. Optional labels show "OB ↑" or "OB ↓" inside the zones.
🔹 FVG Zones
Fair Value Gaps appear as boxes with dashed borders to distinguish them from Order Blocks. Green dashed boxes represent bullish FVGs and red dashed boxes represent bearish FVGs. They share the same extend and label options as Order Blocks.
(Order Blocks & Fair Value Gaps)
🔹 Swing Labels
HH, HL, LH, and LL labels can be plotted directly at each swing point on the chart. Labels appear above swing highs and below swing lows. Green labels indicate bullish structure (HH, HL) and red labels indicate bearish structure (LH, LL). The Show Last setting controls how many labels appear.
🔹 Swing Lines
Horizontal lines can be drawn at the current swing high and swing low. A red line appears at the swing high and a green line at the swing low. Line styles are customizable as solid, dashed, or dotted.
(Swing Labels & Swing Lines)
🔹 HTF Level Lines
Horizontal lines can be plotted at Previous Day, Week, and Month highs and lows. Each level has a separate enable toggle with customizable colors and line styles. Labels auto-combine when levels are close together.
🔹 EMA Line
A standard EMA line can be plotted on the chart using the same EMA Length setting as the dashboard with customizable color.
DASHBOARD CUSTOMIZATION:
The dashboard is highly customizable to fit different trading styles and screen setups.
🔹Dashboard Position
Choose from 9 dashboard positions including top left, top center, top right, middle left, middle center, middle right, bottom left, bottom center, and bottom right.
🔹Dashboard Colors
Two color themes are available. Dark Mode has dark backgrounds with light text and is the default. Light Mode has light backgrounds with dark text.
🔹Column Toggles
Enable or disable individual columns in each dashboard section to show only the information needed. The Market Structure Dashboard section can toggle EMA Trend, Swing H/L, Structure, Order Block, and FVG columns. The Current Timeframe Dashboard section can toggle Volume, Swing H/L, and Volatility columns. The Market Context Dashboard section can toggle Session, Killzone, and Trend Bias columns. The HTF Levels Dashboard section can toggle PDH/L, PWH/L, and PMH/L levels.
🔹Color Settings
Customize colors for trend colors (bull, bear, neutral), session colors (Asian, London, NY), and killzone colors (Asian KZ, London KZ, NY AM, Lunch, PM).
🔹Distance Display
Choose how distances are shown. Percent shows values like "0.45%" and is the default. Price shows raw values like "45.50". Pips shows values like "45 pips" and is useful for forex.
SETTINGS:
🔹 Timeframes
Configure which timeframes are analyzed in the dashboard. Enable toggles turn each of the 7 timeframes on or off. Timeframe selection sets the specific timeframe for each slot (1M, 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H, D, W, M, or custom). Trend weight controls how much each timeframe contributes to the overall bias calculation (0-10), with higher values giving that timeframe more influence.
🔹 Market Structure Dashboard
Controls the main multi-timeframe dashboard section. The enable toggle turns the entire section on or off. Column toggles allow you to show or hide individual columns: EMA Trend, Swing H/L, Structure, Order Block, and FVG. Disabling columns you don't need reduces visual clutter and focuses the dashboard on the information most relevant to your trading style.
🔹 Current Timeframe Dashboard
Controls the current chart timeframe section that displays volume, swing position, and volatility data. The enable toggle turns the entire section on or off. Column toggles allow you to show or hide individual columns: Volume, Swing H/L, and Volatility.
🔹 Market Context Dashboard
Controls the market context section that displays session, killzone, and trend bias information. The enable toggle turns the entire section on or off. Column toggles allow you to show or hide individual columns: Session, Killzone, and Trend Bias.
🔹 HTF Levels Dashboard
Controls the higher timeframe levels section that displays previous day, week, and month high/low data. The enable toggle turns the entire section on or off. Level toggles allow you to show or hide individual levels: PDH/L, PWH/L, and PMH/L.
🔹 Trend Bias Settings
Controls which factors contribute to the trend bias calculation. Factor toggles allow you to include or exclude Structure, Order Block, FVG, EMA Trend, and Swing H/L from the bias score. Disabling factors you don't find relevant customizes how the overall bias is determined.
🔹 Visual Overlays
Controls what is plotted directly on the price chart. Order Blocks and FVGs each have an enable toggle, bull/bear colors, show last count (how many zones to display), extend bars (how far zones project forward), and labels toggle. Swing Labels have an enable toggle, bull/bear colors, and show last count. Swing Lines have an enable toggle, high/low colors, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), and extend bars. HTF Level Lines for Previous Day, Week, and Month highs/lows each have an enable toggle, colors, and line style, with a shared extend setting for all HTF lines. EMA has an enable toggle and color setting.
🔹 General Settings
Core indicator parameters. EMA Length sets the period for EMA calculation (default 9). Swing Length sets how many bars are required to confirm a pivot and is used for Swing Point detection, Order Block detection, and Market Structure labels (default 5). Volatility Lookback sets the period for ATR averaging (default 20). Distance Display controls how distances are shown: Percent, Price, or Pips. Dashboard Position sets where the dashboard appears on the chart (9 options). Dashboard Theme switches between Dark Mode and Light Mode. Color settings allow customization of trend colors (bull, bear, neutral), session colors (Asian, London, NY), and killzone colors (Asian KZ, London KZ, NY AM, Lunch, PM).

(Customized Display)
UNIQUENESS:
The Market Structure Dashboard focuses on multi-timeframe confluence by calculating and displaying the same analytical components across up to 7 timeframes simultaneously. Unlike indicators that show one timeframe at a time, each row in the dashboard represents a complete analysis of that timeframe's structure, zones, and trend state. This allows traders to observe alignment, disagreement, and transitions across timeframes within a single view.
The weighted Trend Bias System combines structure, zones, EMA, and swing position into a single score that accounts for timeframe importance. Higher timeframes can be weighted more heavily, reflecting their greater significance in establishing overall market direction.
The dashboard also integrates time-based context through session and killzone tracking, helping traders identify when market conditions align with historically active trading windows. All components coexist without overriding each other, providing a comprehensive framework for multi-timeframe market structure analysis. Indicator

A Fair Value Gap occurs when there's a price imbalance in the market, creating a "gap" that the price often revisits. This happens when:
Bullish FVG: The high of candle 2 bars ago is below the low of the current candle
Bearish FVG: The low of candle 2 bars ago is above the high of the current candle
FVGs are powerful supply and demand zones that smart money traders use to identify potential reversal or continuation points.

ICT Bias ProICT Bias Pro: Dashboard + First Hour Range & Session FVGs
This indicator is a comprehensive "Bias Builder" designed for traders who follow Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts. It combines a multi-timeframe trend dashboard with a specific intraday strategy derived from ICT's recent teaching: "How Do I Engage Markets When I Don't Have An Initial Bias?"
The tool is designed to help traders find confluence between the Macro trend (Daily/4H) and the Micro execution (15M/5M) during the New York AM Session.
Features & Methodology
1. Multi-Timeframe Bias Dashboard Located in the corner of your chart, this dashboard provides a quick "Traffic Light" view of the market structure across 4 key timeframes:
Daily & 4-Hour: Establishes the macro direction.
15-Min & 5-Min: Monitors intraday order flow.
Logic: Bias is determined by comparing price relative to the 20 EMA and checking for Market Structure alignment. Green = Bullish, Red = Bearish.
2. The "First Hour" Trading Range (No-Bias Strategy) Following ICT’s specific logic for days when bias is unclear, this tool automatically highlights the 9:30 AM – 10:30 AM (New York Time) trading range.
Range High & Low: Defining the volatility of the opening hour.
Equilibrium (50%): The "Line in the Sand." Price holding above the 50% signals bullish strength (Premium); price below signals bearish weakness (Discount).
Quadrants (25% & 75%): Deep discount/premium zones for precision entries.
3. Session-Specific Fair Value Gaps (FVG) The indicator automatically detects and draws Fair Value Gaps that form only within that critical first hour of trading.
Auto-Extension: Boxes extend to the right until price "mitigates" (fills) them.
Consequent Encroachment (C.E.): Automatically plots the 50% dashed line inside every FVG, a key institutional support/resistance level.
Smart Mitigation: Once a gap is filled, the box changes color (user-selectable) to indicate it is no longer an active magnet.
How to Use This Indicator
This tool is designed to identify Confluence:
Check the Dashboard: Look for alignment on the Daily and 4H timeframes (e.g., Both Green).
Wait for 10:30 AM EST: Allow the script to draw the First Hour Range.
Trade the Confluence:
Bullish Setup: If the Dashboard is Green, look for price to hold above the 50% Equilibrium of the First Hour Range. Look for entries inside Bullish FVGs that form near the 50% or 75% levels.
Bearish Setup: If the Dashboard is Red, look for price to reject the 50% Equilibrium and stay in the lower half. Target Bearish FVGs near the 50% or 25% levels.
Settings & Customization
Dashboard Toggle: Show or hide the table to keep charts clean.
Colors: Fully customizable colors for Range High/Low, FVGs (Bullish/Bearish), and Mitigated gaps.
Text Positioning: Adjust FVG labels (Left/Center/Right) to prevent visual clutter on candles.

PowerGaps - Multi-Timeframe Fair Value GapsPowerGaps — Multi‑Timeframe Fair Value Gap Engine
PowerGaps is a precision‑built, multi‑timeframe Fair Value Gap (FVG) engine designed for traders who rely on clean, reliable market structure signals without noise, repainting, or clutter.
It automatically detects and plots institutional FVGs from higher timeframes directly onto your current chart, giving you a clear view of premium/discount imbalances and liquidity inefficiencies that matter most.
What PowerGaps Does
• Scans four customizable timeframes (e.g., M5, M15, H1, H4) for valid bullish and bearish FVGs
• Projects those HTF gaps onto any lower timeframe chart
• Colors and labels each gap by timeframe for instant visual recognition
• Tracks each gap until it is mitigated by wick touch, then automatically closes and removes it
• Ensures no repainting, no duplicates, and no phantom gaps
• Maintains perfect alignment across timeframes using a robust, cross‑TF‑safe architecture
Why It’s Different
PowerGaps is engineered with a strict validation and mitigation system that prevents the common issues seen in many FVG indicators:
• No repeated stacking of the same gap
• No gaps disappearing when switching timeframes
• No false mitigation signals
• No stale or corrupted objects left behind
Every plotted gap is intentional, accurate, and actionable.
Ideal For
• ICT‑style traders
• Liquidity and imbalance‑based strategies
• HTF bias mapping
• Scalpers who rely on HTF inefficiencies
• Swing traders looking for clean continuation or reversal zones
Inputs & Customization
• Enable/disable each timeframe independently
• Choose custom colors for bullish and bearish gaps
• Full control over which timeframes you want projected onto your chart Indicator

What OB and FVG Are
Order Blocks (OB) are a bullish or bearish candle (or several candles) where the next candle (or a sequence of candles) impulsively engulfs the order block.
Imbalance (FVG) is a price inefficiency caused by an impulsive price move due to an abnormal dominance of supply or demand at a price level.
Indicator Settings (in Simple Terms)
Show OB — enable/disable displaying the detected order blocks on the chart.
Show FVG — enable/disable displaying the detected FVG zones.
Max OB (per side) — how many long and how many short order blocks to display at the same time.
Max FVG (per side) — how many long and how many short FVG zones to display at the same time.
Engulfing Window (candles) — how many subsequent candles are allowed to consider the order block “engulfed.”
Color Engulfing Candles — highlight candles where the engulfing occurred to make it easier to spot on history.
OB Invalidation Mode — when to consider an order block “broken” (invalid):
“50%” — the OB is considered invalid if price closes with the candle body below/above the midpoint (50%) of the order block.
“Entry Drill” — the OB becomes invalid on the first touch of the OB zone.
Size Limits via ATR
OB Size in ATR — here ATR is defined as the average candle size over the last 500 bars. It is used to determine the maximum allowed size of an order block.
FVG Size in ATR — the same, but for an FVG zone: a limit on what FVG size is considered acceptable.
Setup Search Mode
Enable Setup Search Mode — when enabled, the indicator will not display all OB and FVG, but only those that contain:
pivots, or
a Sunday Open level, or
both.
Require Pivots / Require Sunday Open — a requirement that the OB/FVG zone must contain pivots and/or Sunday Open levels (depending on the selected option).
Number of Sunday Open Levels — how many Sunday Open levels to draw on the chart.
How to use
Enable Setup Search Mode .
Turn on the requirements Require Pivots and Require Sunday Open so that only the most relevant OB/FVG zones are displayed.
Wait for price to return into the highlighted Order Block or FVG area.
On a lower timeframe, look for an entry model/confirmation, such as:
engulfing,
pin bar,
break of structure / Market Structure Shift (MSS).
Repainting
The indicator does not repaint.

Что такое OB и FVG
Ордерблоки (OB) — это бычья или медвежья свеча (или несколько свеч), при этом следующая свеча (или связка свеч) импульсно поглощает ордерблок.
Имбаланс (FVG) — это ценовая неэффективность, вызванная импульсным движением цены вследствие аномального превосходства спроса/предложения на ценовом уровне.
Настройки индикатора (простыми словами)
Показывать OB — включить/выключить отображение найденных ордерблоков на графике.
Показывать FVG — включить/выключить отображение найденных зон FVG.
Максимум OB (на сторону) — сколько лонговых и сколько шортовых ордерблоков показывать одновременно.
Максимум FVG (на сторону) — сколько лонговых и сколько шортовых зон FVG показывать одновременно.
Окно поглощения (свечей) — сколько следующих свечей допускается, чтобы считать, что ордерблок был “поглощён”.
Окрашивать поглощённые свечи — подсвечивать свечи, где произошло поглощение, чтобы проще было искать это на истории.
Режим инвалидации OB — когда считать ордерблок “сломавшимся” (недействительным):
“50%” — OB считается недействительным, если цена закрепилась телом свечи ниже/выше середины (50%) ордерблока.
“Entry Drill” — OB становится недействительным при первом касании зоны OB.
Ограничение размеров через ATR
Размер OB в ATR — ATR здесь понимается как средний размер свечей за последние 500 баров. От него считается, какой максимальный размер ордерблока допустим.
Размер FVG в ATR — то же самое, но для зоны FVG: ограничение, какой размер FVG считается допустимым.
Режим поиска сетапов
Включить режим поиска сетапов — если включить, индикатор будет показывать не все OB и FVG, а только те, внутри которых есть:
пивоты, или
уровень Sunday Open, или
и то, и другое.
Обязательно Пивоты / Обязательно Sunday Open — требование, чтобы в зоне OB/FVG обязательно были пивоты и/или уровни Sunday Open (в зависимости от выбранной опции).
Количество уровней Sunday Open — сколько уровней Sunday Open рисовать на графике.
Как пользоваться
Включите режим поиска сетапов .
Активируйте требования Обязательно Пивоты и Обязательно Sunday Open , чтобы отображались только наиболее релевантные зоны OB/FVG.
Дождитесь, когда цена вернётся в отмеченный диапазон ордерблока или FVG .
На младшем таймфрейме найдите модель входа/подтверждение, например:
поглощение,
пинбар,
слом структуры / Market Structure Shift (MSS).

Institutional Confluence Nexus [Pro]The Problem: Noise vs. Signal
In the world of Smart Money Concepts (SMC), traders are often overwhelmed by "chart clutter." Standard indicators blindly highlight every Fair Value Gap (FVG) and Order Block (OB), regardless of whether the market is trending, ranging, or dead. This leads to analysis paralysis and low-probability entries.
The Institutional Confluence Nexus was built to solve this. It is not just a structure detector; it is a filtering engine. It uses a multi-factor model to hide low-probability zones and only highlight setups where Structure, Volume, and Momentum align.
The "Quantum" Integration
This script includes a built-in Quantum Regression Oscillator (QRO) engine running in the background. Unlike standard RSI or MACD which are reactive (lagging), the QRO uses Linear Regression mathematics to project momentum trajectory.
By combining institutional structure (Price Action) with quantum momentum (Math), this tool generates specific high-probability signals that only appear when price action and momentum are in perfect agreement.
How It Works & Visual Guide
This indicator is a complete trading suite. Here is what every symbol and color on your chart represents:
1. The "Nexus" Reversal Signals (Triangles)
Symbol : Green Triangle (Up) / Red Triangle (Down) labeled NEXUS.
Logic : These appear when price taps a valid Order Block that aligns with the macro trend (200 EMA).
Meaning : These are your primary "Trend Join" setups. They indicate that the institutional trend is resuming after a retracement.
2. High-Volume Breakouts (Bar Colors)
Symbol : Yellow Candles (Bullish) / Orange Candles (Bearish).
Logic : The script detects when a Break of Structure (BOS) occurs with Above-Average Volume.
Meaning : A breakout without volume is often a fakeout. These colored bars confirm that institutions are fueling the move. If you see a Yellow bar, it means "Smart Money" is buying the breakout.
3. QRO Confluence Signals (Labels)
These are the most advanced signals in the suite, combining Price Action with the internal Oscillator:
SNIPER (Blue/Purple) : The strongest reversal signal.
Condition : Price taps a Fair Value Gap + The internal QRO is at extreme volatility bands (Oversold/Overbought).
PB BUY / PB SELL (Aqua/Orange) : A trend continuation signal.
Condition : Price pulls back into a Fair Value Gap + The internal QRO confirms momentum is still healthy (above/below midline).
Note : These signals automatically draw a Red Line at the invalidation point (Stop Loss) to help you manage risk immediately.
4. The Confluence Dashboard
A non-intrusive Heads-Up Display (HUD) in the corner gives you a snapshot of the market state:
Trend : Is price above/below the 200 EMA?
Volume : Is current volume anomalous (High) or normal?
Structure : Are we breaking up, down, or ranging?
Settings & Customization
Smart Money Structure: Toggle FVGs and Order Blocks on/off.
FVG Extend: Control how far the gap "zones" extend to the right to see them as support/resistance zones.
Volume Filter: Enable/Disable the volume requirement (Keep enabled for higher strike rate).
Risk Management: Adjust the "Lookback" period for the automatic Stop Loss lines.
For Developers (Open Source)
I have kept the code open-source to foster learning in the Pine Script community. You can study how:
ta.linreg is used to smooth RSI data for the internal QRO engine.
box.new and line.new are used for dynamic drawing and extending zones.
var variables are used to store historical FVG levels to detect precise crossovers.

ICT Algo: Sweep + MSS + High Prob FVG/IFVGThis script is a comprehensive execution tool based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts, specifically designed to identify high-probability entries by combining Liquidity Sweeps, Market Structure Shifts (MSS), and Fair Value Gaps (FVG/IFVG).
Unlike standard FVG indicators that highlight every gap on the chart, this "Algo" version filters for gaps that occur specifically after a liquidity purge and a shift in structure, ensuring you are only looking at setups with institutional backing.
How It Works
The script follows a strict 3-step validation process before plotting a signal:
Liquidity Sweep (The Context): The script tracks Higher Timeframe (HTF) levels including Previous Day High/Low, Weekly High/Low, and Monthly High/Low. A setup is only considered valid if price has recently "swept" one of these levels, indicating a hunt for liquidity.
Market Structure Shift (The Confirmation): Once a sweep occurs, the script looks for a displacement in the opposite direction. It identifies a "Pivot High/Low" (customizable length) and waits for a candle body to close beyond it (MSS).
Filtered Entry (The Trigger): * FVG: Plots a standard Fair Value Gap if it forms within a "Deep Value" zone (Discount for longs, Premium for shorts).
IFVG (Inversion FVG): Highlights failed FVGs that have been reclaimed by price to act as support or resistance.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Filters: Automatically plots PDH/L, PWH/L, PMH/L, and PYH/L. You can toggle which levels act as your sweep triggers.
Deep Value Logic: The script uses built-in logic to ensure Bullish FVGs are only highlighted when price is below a key liquidity level (Discount), and Bearish FVGs when price is above (Premium).
Dynamic Box Management: To keep your chart clean, boxes for FVGs and IFVGs are automatically shortened ("cut") once they are mitigated by price.
Inversion Logic: Includes a specialized toggle for Inversion Fair Value Gaps, allowing you to trade "failed" gaps that flip their polarity.
Settings & Customization
Entry Setup Bias: Choose to see only Bullish, only Bearish, or Both setups.
MSS Pivot Length: Adjust how "sensitive" the Market Structure Shift detection is. A higher number requires a more significant swing to be broken.
Sweep Lookback: Defines how many bars back the script looks for a liquidity sweep to remain "active" for a setup.
Include Opens: Optional toggle to include Previous Day/Week/Month Opens as liquidity points.
Usage Tips
The Golden Setup: Look for a sweep of a Previous Day High, followed by a Bearish MSS, and an entry at the Red FVG box.
Risk Management: This indicator is designed for entry identification. Always use stop losses (usually placed above/below the candle that created the FVG or the MSS swing point).
Timeframes: Best used on execution timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m) while the script handles the HTF levels automatically.
Disclaimer: This script is an educational tool and does not constitute financial advice. Trading involves significant risk. Past performance of a strategy does not guarantee future results.

Range Indicator Golden Pocket, Liquidity, FairValueGapOverview
This indicator is a comprehensive institutional market structure toolkit. It is designed to identify high-probability reversal zones by merging three powerful technical analysis concepts: Fibonacci Golden Pockets (61.8% - 65%), Liquidity Pool Analysis (Swing Failure Patterns), and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). By automating the detection of price inefficiencies and "stop runs," it helps traders navigate complex price action with objective, rule-based confirmation.
What the Script Does
The script continuously monitors a user-defined lookback period to define a trading range. Within this range, it dynamically plots:
Golden Pockets: High-confluence retracement zones (calculated as 0.35 - 0.382 internal range levels).
Liquidity Zones: Highlighted regions at the absolute high and low (Top/Bottom 5%) where institutional orders and retail stops are typically concentrated.
Swing Failure Patterns (SFP): Real-time detection of liquidity grabs where price breaches a range extreme but fails to close outside, signaling a potential trap.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Visualizes 3-candle price imbalances, showing areas of aggressive buying or selling that often act as future magnets or support/resistance.
2-Candle Confirmation: A momentum-based filter requiring a candle-close confirmation before a reversal signal is generated.
For Whom is it?
Smart Money Concepts (SMC) & ICT Students: Traders looking for automated liquidity sweeps and market inefficiencies.
Fibonacci & Mean Reversion Traders: Those seeking a clean, professional visualization of the Golden Pocket across multiple timeframes.
Systematic Day Traders: Who require strict price-action confirmation (SFP and 2-candle rules) to remove emotional bias from their entries.
Functions and Input Options
1. Market Structure & Visuals
Lookback Period (Default: 100): Defines the window for calculating the range extremes.
Box Offset Right (Default: 50): Extends all zones into the future for better anticipatory trading.
Show Price Lines & Labels: Displays the exact price for every zone boundary on the right axis for precise execution.
2. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Settings
Show Fair Value Gaps: A toggle to enable/disable the plotting of price imbalances.
FVG Extension (Default: 10): Determines how many bars into the future the FVG box remains visible.
Custom Colors: Separate color inputs for Bullish (Gap Up) and Bearish (Gap Down) inefficiencies.
3. Professional Alert System
The script includes five specific alert conditions:
GP Touch: Early warning when price enters a Golden Pocket.
2-Candle Pattern: Confirmed momentum shift within a Golden Pocket.
SFP Long/Short: Alerts when a Liquidity Grab (Swing Failure) is confirmed at the range high or low.
Transparency and Compliance (Moderator Info)
Non-Repainting Logic: All signals (SFP, 2-Candle, and FVG) are calculated and triggered based on confirmed candle closes. Drawings use barstate.islast purely for visual efficiency without altering historical data integrity.
Educational Context: The script visualizes well-known market principles (Fibonacci, SFPs, and FVGs) to aid traders in their analysis; it does not provide automated financial advice or "black-box" buy/sell signals.
Resource Management: Optimized for Pine Script v5, using efficient array and box handling to ensure smooth performance even on lower timeframes. Indicator
ICT Entry V2 [TS_Indie]📌 Description – ICT Entry V2
The market structure, liquidity, FVG, and iFVG mechanisms remain the same as in Version 1.
However, the price action for order entries is different, with the positions of the FVG and iFVG swapped.
Pending orders and stop loss are placed at the iFVG.
⚙️ Core Logic & Working Mechanism
I won’t explain FVG in detail, as most traders are already familiar with it.
Let’s focus on the mechanism of iFVG instead.
The concept of iFVG is based on a supply-to-demand flip and a demand-to-supply flip within an FVG zone.
For an iFVG to be confirmed, the candle close must break through the FVG.
A wick alone does not count as a valid iFVG confirmation.
The confirmation of market structure swings uses a pivot length mechanism combined with price action.
It validates a swing by detecting a structure break formed by candles making new highs or new lows.
📈 Buy Setup
1.Liquidity sweep on the demand side, with price closing above the liquidity level.
2.A demand zone is formed as iFVG and FVG, where FVG is located above iFVG.
3.The gap between the upper box of iFVG and the lower box of FVG must be within the defined Min and Max range.
4.Market Structure must be in a Bullish trend.
5.Place a Pending Order at the upper box of iFVG and set Stop Loss at the lower box of iFVG (Entry and Stop Loss can be adjusted using Entry Zone and ATR-based Stop Loss).
📉 Sell Setup
1.Liquidity sweep on the supply side, with price closing below the liquidity level.
2.A supply zone is formed as iFVG and FVG, where FVG is located below iFVG.
3.The gap between the lower box of iFVG and the upper box of FVG must be within the defined Min and Max range.
4.Market Structure must be in a Bearish trend.
5.Place a Pending Order at the lower box of iFVG and set Stop Loss at the upper box of iFVG (Entry and Stop Loss can be adjusted using Entry Zone and ATR-based Stop Loss).
⚙️ Liquidity Sweep Conditions
➯ When a liquidity sweep occurs on the demand side, the system will start looking for Buy Setup conditions.
➯ When a liquidity sweep occurs on the supply side, the system will immediately switch to looking for Sell Setup conditions.
➯ The system will always prioritize the most recent liquidity sweep and search for setups based on that direction.
➯ The liquidity sweep condition will be invalidated when price closes back below (for demand sweep) or above (for supply sweep) the most recently swept liquidity level.
⭐ Pending Order Cancellation Conditions
A Pending Order will be canceled under the following conditions:
1.A new Price Action signal appears on either the Buy or Sell side.
2.When Time Session is enabled, the Pending Order is canceled once price exits the selected session.
🕹 Order Management Rule
When there is an active open position, the indicator restricts the creation of new Pending Orders to prevent overlapping positions.

ICT Entry V1 [TS_Indie]📌 Description – ICT Entry V1
This trading system is based on price action, combined with FVG, iFVG, and liquidity, and it uses the mechanism from the indicator “Smallest Swing ” to validate swings that become liquidity.
⚙️ Core Logic & Working Mechanism
I won’t explain FVG in detail, as most traders are already familiar with it.
Let’s focus on the mechanism of iFVG instead.
The concept of iFVG is based on a supply-to-demand flip and a demand-to-supply flip within an FVG zone.
For an iFVG to be confirmed, the candle close must break through the FVG.
A wick alone does not count as a valid iFVG confirmation.
The confirmation of market structure swings uses a pivot length mechanism combined with price action.
It validates a swing by detecting a structure break formed by candles making new highs or new lows.
📈 Buy Setup
1.Liquidity sweep on the demand side, with price closing above the liquidity level.
2.A demand zone is formed as FVG and iFVG, where iFVG is located above FVG.
3.The gap between the upper box of FVG and the lower box of iFVG must be within the defined Min and Max range.
4.Market Structure must be in a Bullish trend.
5.Place a Pending Order at the upper box of FVG and set Stop Loss at the lower box of FVG (Entry and Stop Loss can be adjusted using Entry Zone and ATR-based Stop Loss).
📉 Sell Setup
1.Liquidity sweep on the supply side, with price closing below the liquidity level.
2.A supply zone is formed as FVG and iFVG, where iFVG is located below FVG.
3.The gap between the lower box of FVG and the upper box of iFVG must be within the defined Min and Max range.
4.Market Structure must be in a Bearish trend.
5.Place a Pending Order at the lower box of FVG and set Stop Loss at the upper box of FVG (Entry and Stop Loss can be adjusted using Entry Zone and ATR-based Stop Loss).
⚙️ Liquidity Sweep Conditions
➯ When a liquidity sweep occurs on the demand side, the system will start looking for Buy Setup conditions.
➯ When a liquidity sweep occurs on the supply side, the system will immediately switch to looking for Sell Setup conditions.
➯ The system will always prioritize the most recent liquidity sweep and search for setups based on that direction.
➯ The liquidity sweep condition will be invalidated when price closes back below (for demand sweep) or above (for supply sweep) the most recently swept liquidity level.
⭐ Pending Order Cancellation Conditions
A Pending Order will be canceled under the following conditions:
1.A new Price Action signal appears on either the Buy or Sell side.
2.When Time Session is enabled, the Pending Order is canceled once price exits the selected session.
🕹 Order Management Rule
When there is an active open position, the indicator restricts the creation of new Pending Orders to prevent overlapping positions.

Smart Gap Concepts [MarkitTick]💡 This indicator automates the identification and classification of price gaps, commonly known as Fair Value Gaps (FVG) or Imbalances, by integrating market structure and volume analysis. Unlike standard gap detectors that simply highlight empty space on a chart, this script applies algorithmic filters to categorize gaps into three distinct phases of market movement: Breakaway, Runaway, and Exhaustion. This helps traders understand the potential context of a move rather than just seeing a support or resistance zone.
● Originality and Utility
The primary innovation of this tool is its dynamic classification system. It moves beyond visual detection by checking the "why" behind the gap. By referencing Swing Highs and Swing Lows (Market Structure) alongside Volume efficiency, it determines if a gap represents a breakout, a trend continuation, or a climatic end to a move. Additionally, the script features an automated mitigation tracking system that removes gaps from the chart once price has re-tested the midpoint, ensuring the visual workspace remains clean and relevant to current price action.
● Methodology
The script operates on a multi-stage logic engine:
• Gap Detection
It first identifies the core imbalance where the Low of the current bar does not overlap with the High of the bar two periods prior (for bullish gaps), ensuring the intervening candle represents a strong displacement.
• Structural Analysis (Breakaway Gaps)
The script monitors Pivot Highs and Lows. If a gap occurs simultaneously with a close beyond a key structural Pivot, it is classified as a "Breakaway Gap." This signals the potential start of a new trend.
• Volume and Time Analysis (Exhaustion Gaps)
To identify potential reversals, the script looks for "Trend Maturity." If a gap forms after a long duration since the last pivot and is accompanied by a volume spike (defined by the Volume Spike Multiplier), it is labeled as an "Exhaustion Gap."
• Continuation (Runaway Gaps)
If a gap is valid but meets neither the Breakaway nor Exhaustion criteria, it is considered a "Runaway Gap," typically found in the middle of an established trend.
• Dynamic Cleanup
The script tracks the midpoint of every active gap. If price creates a lower low (for bullish gaps) or higher high (for bearish gaps) beyond this midpoint, the gap is considered mitigated and is removed from the screen.
📖 How to Use
Traders can utilize the color-coded classifications to gauge market intent:
Breakaway (Default Blue): Watch these zones for potential trend initiations. These are often high-probability areas for a retest entry after a structure break.
Runaway (Default Orange): These indicate strong momentum. They can be used to trail stop-losses or add to winning positions, as price should ideally not close below these gaps in a healthy trend.
Exhaustion (Default Red): Be cautious when these appear. They suggest the current move is overextended and a reversal or complex pullback may be imminent.
• Exhaustion Gap : A Practical Case Study
• Breakaway Gap: A Practical Case Study
• Runaway Gap : A Practical Case Study
⚙️ Inputs and Settings
Min Gap Size (Points): Filters out insignificant gaps smaller than this threshold.
Structure Lookback: Defines the sensitivity of the Pivot detection (Swing High/Low).
Volume Avg Length & Multiplier: Determines what qualifies as a "Volume Spike" for exhaustion logic.
Trend Maturity: The minimum number of bars required to consider a trend "old" enough for an exhaustion signal.
Visual Settings: Custom colors for each gap type and box extension length.

Structure Lite - Automatic Major Trend LinesStructure Lite – Pivot-Based Market Structure Visualization
OVERVIEW
Structure Lite is an open-source charting tool designed to assist traders in visualizing higher-timeframe market structure. The script identifies major swing points using high-period pivot analysis and projects structural support and resistance lines directly on the chart. Its purpose is to highlight persistent market structure while minimizing visual noise.
CORE CONCEPTS & CALCULATIONS
Pivot Identification
The script uses Pine Script’s built-in ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to identify confirmed swing highs and lows. A pivot is only validated after a user-defined number of bars (Major Pivot Lookback) have formed on both sides of the price extreme, ensuring that only structurally significant pivots are selected.
Structural Pairing
Each structural line is created only after two consecutive pivots of the same type are confirmed (high-to-high or low-to-low). The script stores the price and bar index of these pivots and uses them as fixed anchor points.
Line Projection
Once a valid pivot pair is formed, the script draws a line between the two points using line.new() and extends it forward using extend.right. These lines represent projected structural boundaries rather than trade signals.
Object Management
To maintain chart clarity and performance, the script manages all drawn objects through a line array. A FIFO (First-In, First-Out) method is applied so that only the three most recent structural lines remain visible. Older lines are automatically deleted as new ones are created.
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY & ORIGINALITY
While many indicators plot frequent swing points or short-term pivots, Structure Lite focuses on structural persistence. By filtering for higher-period pivots and limiting the number of displayed projections, the script emphasizes dominant market structure rather than short-term fluctuations. This approach is intended to support discretionary analysis, not replace it.
HOW TO USE
Major Pivot Lookback
Increase the value to focus on higher-timeframe structure (e.g., swing or position trading).
Decrease the value to visualize intraday structural levels.
Visual Encoding
Green lines represent projected structural support
Red lines represent projected structural resistance
Visibility Control
A boolean input allows all structure lines to be hidden instantly to restore a clean price chart.
LIMITATIONS & DISCLAIMER
This script is a visualization tool only. It does not generate trade signals, entry or exit points, alerts, or directional forecasts. All plotted levels are derived from historical price action and may change as new pivots form. The script is provided for educational and analytical purposes and should be used in conjunction with other forms of market analysis Indicator
FVG Heatmap [Hash Capital Research]FVG Map
FVG Map is a visual Fair Value Gap (FVG) mapping tool built to make displacement imbalances easy to see and manage in real time. It detects 3-candle FVG zones, plots them as clean heatmap boxes, tracks partial mitigation (how much of the zone has been filled), and summarizes recent “fill speed” behavior in a small regime dashboard.
This is an indicator (not a strategy). It does not place trades and it does not publish performance claims. It is a market-structure visualization tool intended to support discretionary or systematic workflows.
What this script detects
Bullish FVG (gap below price)
A bullish FVG is detected when the candle from two bars ago has a high below the current candle’s low.
The zone spans from that prior high up to the current low.
Bearish FVG (gap above price)
A bearish FVG is detected when the candle from two bars ago has a low above the current candle’s high.
The zone spans from the current high up to that prior low.
What makes it useful
Heatmap zones (clean, readable FVG boxes)
Bullish zones plot below price. Bearish zones plot above price.
Partial fill tracking (mitigation progress)
As price trades back into a zone, the script visually shows how much of the zone has been filled.
Mitigation modes (your definition of “filled”)
• Full Fill: price fully trades through the zone
• 50% Fill: price reaches the midpoint of the zone
• First Touch: price touches the zone one time
Optional auto-cleanup
Optionally remove zones once they’re mitigated to keep the chart clean.
Fill-Speed Regime Dashboard
When zones get mitigated, the script records how many bars it took to fill and summarizes the recent environment:
• Average fill time
• Median fill time
• % fast fills vs % slow fills
• Regime label: choppy/mean-revert, trending/displacement, or mixed
How to use
Use FVG zones as structure, not guaranteed signals.
• Bullish zones are often watched as potential support on pullbacks.
• Bearish zones are often watched as potential resistance on rallies.
The fill-speed dashboard helps provide context: fast fills tend to appear in more rotational conditions, while slow fills tend to appear in stronger trend/displacement conditions.
Alerts

Bearish FVG Created
Notes
FVGs are not guaranteed reversal points. Fill-speed/regime is descriptive of recent behavior and should be treated as context, not prediction. On realtime candles, visuals may update as the bar forms. Indicator
