Smart Money Concepts Engine [Quantum Algo]Smart Money Concepts Engine
====================================================
🔶 OVERVIEW
Smart Money Concepts Engine is an all-in-one smart money concepts (SMC) indicator that unifies market structure, order blocks, fair value gaps with inversions, liquidity, and premium and discount analysis into a single engine — and then goes one layer deeper than drawing tools: it scores the confluence of everything on the chart into a transparent zero-to-one-hundred Confluence Score, and narrates the current market read in plain language on a live dashboard.
Most smart money indicators draw concepts and leave the interpretation to you. This engine interprets. At any moment the dashboard answers the questions an institutional-style trader actually asks: What is the structure doing on both tiers? Has liquidity been taken? Is price in premium or discount? Are there fresh zones nearby? How much of this stacks together right now?
🔶 WHAT ARE SMART MONEY CONCEPTS?
Smart money concepts describe how large market participants leave footprints in price: they break structure to reveal intent (Break of Structure and Change of Character), they enter from unmitigated zones of prior aggression (order blocks), they leave imbalances behind fast moves (fair value gaps), they engineer stop runs above equal highs and below equal lows (liquidity sweeps), and they favor buying in the discount half of a range and selling in the premium half. This engine detects, draws, and tracks the life cycle of every one of these elements.
🔶 WHY THIS SCRIPT IS ORIGINAL
1. Confluence Score. A transparent zero-to-one-hundred score built from five weighted, observable conditions: swing and internal structure alignment (25), correct premium or discount positioning for the bias (25), a fresh order block near price (20), imbalance confluence (15), and a recent liquidity sweep in the supportive direction (15). Every point is explainable — nothing is a black box.
2. Narrative engine. The dashboard writes the market read as a plain-language story that updates live, for example: "Bullish structure — sell-side taken — price in discount — demand below." No interpretation gap between what the chart shows and what it means.
3. Zone life cycle everywhere. Order blocks are born fresh, brighten when tested, and are removed the moment they are mitigated — the chart only ever shows zones that still matter. Fair value gaps flip into inversion zones when violated and are removed on the second violation. Equal highs and equal lows are struck through and relabeled the moment they are swept.
4. Volume-graded zones. Every order block is labeled with the relative volume of its origin candle (for example "Demand · 1.8× Volume"), so zone quality is visible at a glance.
5. Dual-tier structure. Swing structure (Break of Structure and Change of Character with lines and labels) and internal structure (compact context markers) are tracked as two independent bias states — and their agreement or disagreement feeds the score.
6. Graded zone-tap signals. When price returns to a fresh zone while both structure tiers align and price sits on the correct side of equilibrium, the engine prints a signal stamped with the live Confluence Score. High-scoring signals are highlighted in the accent color.
7. Anti-clutter engineering. Sweep detection carries per-level memory and a cooldown so the same level can never stack duplicate labels. Every drawing family is capped by input, keeping the chart readable and the auto-scale anchored to current price.
🔶 HOW IT WORKS
Market structure: Swing highs and lows are confirmed with a symmetric pivot lookback. A candle close through a confirmed swing level prints a Break of Structure (BoS) in trend continuation or a Change of Character (CHoCH) on reversal, on both the swing tier and the internal tier. All events are evaluated on closed bars only, so structure and signals do not repaint.
Order blocks: On every swing structure break, the engine locates the origin candle of the move — the last opposite candle before the impulse — and projects it forward as a demand or supply zone, graded by the relative volume of that candle. Zones brighten on first touch and are removed when price closes through them.
Fair value gaps: Three-candle imbalances above a minimum size (measured in Average True Range) are boxed. When price closes through a gap, it flips into an inversion zone acting in the opposite direction; a second violation removes it. Gap detection runs in the background for the Confluence Score even when drawing is disabled.
Liquidity: Consecutive swing highs or lows within a tolerance form Equal Highs (EQH) or Equal Lows (EQL) — resting liquidity lines that follow price. A wick through the level with a close back inside marks a sweep: the line is struck through, relabeled, and the event feeds the score. Single-pivot stop hunts are detected the same way, with per-level memory preventing duplicates.
Premium and discount: The range between the last confirmed swing high and low is mapped into premium, equilibrium, and discount, with deeper tinting in the extreme quartiles. The dashboard reports the live position as a percentage of the range.
Dashboard: A compact, fully themeable panel shows swing bias, internal bias, last event, range position, liquidity status, fresh demand and supply counts, imbalance count, the Confluence Score with a strength meter, and the narrative. Text size, position, and every color are adjustable, and long narrative text wraps inside its cell to keep the panel compact.
🔶 HOW TO USE IT
1. Works on any market — cryptocurrency, forex, gold, indices, stocks, futures — and any timeframe. The engine adapts structure size through the swing and internal length inputs.
2. Read the dashboard top to bottom: bias on both tiers, what just happened, where price sits in the range, and whether liquidity has been taken.
3. The highest-quality condition is full alignment: both tiers agree, a sweep has occurred against the move, price trades on the correct side of equilibrium, and a fresh volume-graded zone waits nearby — exactly what the Confluence Score measures.
4. Treat zone-tap signals as locations of interest stamped with their context quality, not as automatic entries. A score above eighty means nearly everything aligns; below fifty means the setup is thin.
5. Use inversion zones as polarity flips: a violated imbalance often acts as support or resistance from the other side.
6. Fair value gap drawing is off by default for a cleaner chart; enable it in settings — the score uses gap information either way.
🔶 SETTINGS
- Swing and internal structure lengths, structure events to keep.
- Order blocks: origin candle lookback and zones to keep.
- Fair value gaps: minimum size, inversion tracking, gaps to keep (drawing off by default).
- Liquidity: equal level tolerance and levels to keep.
- Premium and discount map with adjustable extension.
- Zone tap signals and signals to keep.
- All chart colors, plus a fully themeable dashboard: position, four text sizes, title band, background, frame, grid, and three text colors.
🔶 ALERTS
- Bullish / Bearish Break of Structure
- Bullish / Bearish Change of Character
- Buy-Side / Sell-Side Liquidity Sweep
- Demand Zone Tap / Supply Zone Tap (score-stamped)
- Fair Value Gap Inversion
🔶 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does the indicator repaint? No. Structure events, sweeps, inversions, and signals are evaluated on closed bars at confirmed pivots. Pivot confirmation introduces intentional lag equal to the structure length.
What does the Confluence Score mean? It is a transparent sum of five weighted conditions, not a prediction. It measures how much of the smart money checklist is currently aligned — a context meter, not a probability of profit.
Why did an order block disappear? It was mitigated: price closed through it. The engine removes dead zones so the chart only shows levels that still matter.
Why do sweeps print only once at a level? Each swing level carries sweep memory and a cooldown, preventing the duplicate label stacking common in liquidity tools.
Which markets and timeframes work best? All markets with candle data. Higher timeframes produce larger, cleaner structures; the internal tier keeps lower timeframes readable.
🔶 CREDITS
The smart money concepts implemented here — order blocks, fair value gaps, liquidity sweeps, break of structure, change of character, and premium and discount — are trading concepts popularized by the Inner Circle Trader methodology of Michael J. Huddleston, with intellectual roots in the market logic of Richard D. Wyckoff. This script gratefully acknowledges that lineage. The confluence scoring model, the narrative engine, the zone life cycle system, the volume grading, the anti-duplication sweep memory, and all code in this script are original work
🔶 LIMITATIONS
Structure detection is only as good as the chosen pivot lengths; very noisy instruments may need larger values. Volume grading is less meaningful on symbols with unreliable volume reporting. Removed zones are not kept as historical artifacts. The Confluence Score measures alignment, not outcome. No indicator replaces independent analysis.

SMT Sniper Entry Engine [trade_w_samet]🎯 SMT Sniper Entry Engine
SMT Sniper Entry Engine is a structured correlated-market divergence and confirmation indicator designed to help traders study liquidity sweeps, SMT divergence, reclaim quality, pair correlation, external-range location, displacement, Fair Value Gap evidence, micro-structure confirmation, and permanent bar-close UP or DOWN signals through one coordinated workflow.
The script is built around one central idea:
An SMT divergence should not automatically become an entry signal.
Instead of treating every difference between two correlated markets as equally meaningful, the engine first identifies a one-market liquidity sweep, then evaluates reclaim behavior, ATR-normalized sweep depth, candle direction, rejection quality, range expansion, pair correlation, external-range location, and divergence separation before the SMT event is accepted.
A qualified SMT event still does not create an immediate final signal.
The accepted SMT event arms a temporary confirmation sequence.
The engine then waits for directional displacement, a confirmed break of the SMT candle, and the additional evidence required by the active Engine Preset before a permanent UP or DOWN label is printed.
The indicator includes:
• Automatic comparison-symbol selection for supported metals, indices, cryptocurrencies, forex majors, and common forex crosses
• Manual comparison-symbol mode
• Same-timeframe comparison-market data
• Closed-bar rolling liquidity references
• Current-bar-close SMT divergence detection
• Either-market sweep acceptance
• Same-bar liquidity reclaim validation
• ATR-normalized sweep-depth measurement
• Chart-candle direction filtering
• Rejection-close filtering
• Minimum range-expansion filtering
• Separate bullish and bearish 0–100 Base Quality Scores
• Log-return pair-correlation analysis
• External-range location filtering
• ATR-normalized divergence-separation analysis
• Separate bullish and bearish 0–100 Sniper Scores
• Standard, Sniper, and Elite Engine Presets
• A temporary eight-bar confirmation window
• Sequential evidence accumulation across separate closed candles
• Directional displacement confirmation
• SMT-candle break confirmation
• Fair Value Gap confirmation
• Micro-structure break confirmation
• ATR-buffered setup invalidation
• Setup expiration
• Directional SMT cooldown
• Final signal cooldown
• One final UP or DOWN signal per completed SMT sequence
• Minimal historical SMT markers
• Dotted historical SMT reference lines
• Blue UP and orange DOWN labels
• Adjustable UP / DOWN label size
• Signal-confirming FVG boxes

• Combined dynamic alert() support
• “Any alert() function call” compatibility
• Data Window diagnostics
• Confirmed-close permanent signals
• No pivot functions
• No future-bar confirmation
• No historical signal backplotting
The purpose of this script is to provide a structured way to study when a correlated-market divergence is supported by sufficient liquidity, correlation, location, reaction, and confirmation evidence.
It is not financial advice.
It is not an automated trading system.

📌 OVERVIEW
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
At a high level, SMT Sniper Entry Engine does the following:
• Selects a comparison market automatically or manually.
• Requests the comparison market’s open, high, low, close, and ATR data on the chart timeframe.
• Builds rolling liquidity references from already completed candles.
• Checks whether only one market swept its corresponding liquidity reference.
• Requires the sweeping market to reclaim the reference on the same completed candle.
• Measures sweep depth relative to ATR.
• Evaluates chart-candle direction.
• Evaluates the candle’s closing position.
• Evaluates minimum range expansion relative to ATR.
• Produces separate bullish and bearish 0–100 Base Quality Scores.
• Measures the relationship between chart and comparison-market returns.
• Evaluates whether bullish SMT appears near the lower portion of the external range.
• Evaluates whether bearish SMT appears near the upper portion of the external range.
• Measures how clearly the non-sweeping market held its own liquidity reference.
• Produces separate bullish and bearish 0–100 Sniper Scores.
• Applies Standard, Sniper, or Elite acceptance thresholds.
• Confirms a qualified SMT event only after the current candle closes.
• Arms a temporary sequential confirmation window.
• Accumulates displacement, SMT-candle break, FVG, and structure evidence.
• Invalidates the setup if price closes beyond the SMT extreme by the stored ATR buffer.
• Expires the setup when confirmation does not arrive inside the available window.
• Applies final signal cooldown protection.
• Prints a permanent blue UP or orange DOWN label only after every required condition is confirmed.
• Optionally draws the FVG associated with the final signal.
• Displays current engine state, comparison symbol, correlation, active score, and signal counts in the dashboard.
• Provides separate static alert conditions.
• Provides one combined dynamic final-signal alert workflow.
• Exposes internal diagnostic values through PulseWire’s Data Window.
The indicator does not use machine-learning prediction.
Its scores are not probabilities.
Its signal counts are not wins and losses.
Its labels do not promise future direction.
The script is a rule-based educational framework that explains how a raw correlated-market divergence becomes an accepted, rejected, invalidated, expired, or finally confirmed setup.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 CORE IDEA
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The core idea behind SMT Sniper Entry Engine is that two markets with a meaningful positive relationship do not always take corresponding liquidity at the same time.
When one market trades beyond a prior liquidity reference while the other market holds its own reference, the difference can create an SMT divergence.
However, the divergence alone contains limited information.
A basic SMT event does not automatically explain:
• whether the sweep was meaningful relative to volatility
• whether the sweeping market reclaimed the reference
• whether the chart candle closed with directional rejection
• whether the candle range expanded enough to matter
• whether the selected markets remain sufficiently correlated
• whether the event occurred near a useful external-range location
• whether the non-sweeping market clearly held its own level
• whether price produced directional displacement afterward
• whether the SMT candle was actually broken
• whether an FVG or micro-structure break confirmed the reaction
• whether the setup remained valid during the confirmation window
• whether another recent final signal is still inside the cooldown period
The engine therefore uses a staged sequence:
comparison-market selection
→ closed-bar liquidity references
→ one-market sweep
→ same-bar reclaim
→ Base Quality Score
→ pair-correlation validation
→ external-range location
→ divergence-separation validation
→ Sniper Score
→ confirmed SMT event
→ temporary setup arming
→ sequential reaction evidence
→ invalidation or expiration control
→ permanent UP or DOWN signal
For bullish conditions, the engine studies prior-low liquidity, bullish rejection, lower external-range location, directional displacement, a close above the SMT candle high, and bullish confirmation evidence.
For bearish conditions, the same process is mirrored around prior highs.
The purpose is not to produce the largest possible number of signals.
The purpose is to make the acceptance process selective, visible, and understandable.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧩 WHY THIS SCRIPT IS NOT A SIMPLE BUY/SELL INDICATOR
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMT Sniper Entry Engine is not designed to be used as a blind signal generator.
A raw correlated-market divergence must move through multiple stages:
One market sweeps liquidity
→ the comparison market does not make the same sweep
→ the sweeping market reclaims its reference
→ sweep depth is evaluated
→ chart-candle direction is checked
→ rejection-close quality is checked
→ range expansion is checked
→ the Base Quality Score is calculated
→ pair correlation is checked
→ external-range location is checked
→ divergence separation is checked
→ the Sniper Score is calculated
→ the SMT event is accepted
→ the confirmation window opens
→ directional displacement is accumulated
→ the SMT candle must be broken
→ FVG and/or micro-structure evidence is accumulated
→ the setup must avoid invalidation
→ the setup must confirm before expiration
→ the final UP or DOWN label appears
Each module serves a different purpose.
The comparison engine defines the external market used for SMT analysis.
The liquidity engine identifies the one-market sweep.
The reclaim engine checks whether the liquidity event closed back inside the reference.
The Base Quality Score evaluates the completed SMT candle.
The Sniper Context Engine evaluates correlation, location, separation, and sweep quality.
The sequential confirmation engine evaluates what price does after the SMT event.
The invalidation and expiration controls remove setups that no longer satisfy the intended sequence.
The dashboard explains the current engine state.
This makes the script a coordinated SMT-confirmation workflow rather than a simple divergence marker.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚙️ HOW THE SCRIPT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The script operates through connected calculation stages.
First, the engine selects a comparison symbol.
Auto mode uses the built-in symbol matrix.
Manual mode uses the symbol selected by the user.
The comparison market is requested on the same timeframe as the chart.
= request.security(
comparisonSymbol,
timeframe.period,
,
gaps = barmerge.gaps_off,
lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_off,
ignore_invalid_symbol = true)
The request uses lookahead_off.
The engine then calculates rolling chart and comparison-market liquidity references while excluding the current candle.
float chartPriorLow = ta.lowest(low , referenceLookback)
float chartPriorHigh = ta.highest(high , referenceLookback)
float comparisonPriorLow = ta.lowest(comparisonLow , referenceLookback)
float comparisonPriorHigh = ta.highest(comparisonHigh , referenceLookback)
The default reference lookback is 12 bars.
A bullish divergence is possible when one market sweeps a prior low and the other market does not.
A bearish divergence is possible when one market sweeps a prior high and the other market does not.
The sweeping market must reclaim the level on the same completed candle.
The candidate is then evaluated through:
• ATR-normalized sweep depth
• chart-candle direction
• close location
• range expansion
• Base Quality Score
• pair correlation
• external-range location
• divergence separation
• Sniper Score
• directional cooldown
When the SMT event is accepted, the engine stores:
• setup direction
• SMT bar
• SMT extreme
• SMT reaction trigger
• current ATR
• Base Quality Score
• Sniper Score
• sequential evidence states
• first confirmed FVG coordinates
The engine then monitors the next closed candles.
A final signal is accepted only when the active preset’s required evidence is present and the setup has not invalidated or expired.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🟢 BULLISH SMT LOGIC
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A bullish SMT candidate begins at prior lows.
The engine checks the chart symbol and comparison market together.
A bullish sweep divergence exists when either:
• the chart symbol trades below its prior low while the comparison market does not trade below its corresponding prior low
• the comparison market trades below its prior low while the chart symbol does not trade below its corresponding prior low
The engine accepts a sweep from either market.
The sweeping market must reclaim the prior-low reference when reclaim validation is active.
The completed chart candle must also satisfy the active quality requirements.
The default Sniper profile evaluates:
• sufficient ATR-normalized sweep depth
• bullish chart-candle direction
• a close in the stronger portion of the candle
• minimum candle-range expansion
• minimum Base Quality Score
• minimum positive pair correlation
• location near the lower portion of the external range
• minimum divergence separation
• minimum Sniper Score
• directional SMT cooldown availability
bool bullishSmtEvent =
bullishRawSmtCandidate and
bullishSniperPass and
bullishCooldownPass
When the bullish SMT event is confirmed, the engine stores:
• the SMT low as the bullish invalidation extreme
• the SMT high as the bullish reaction-break trigger
• the current ATR
• the current Base Quality Score
• the current Sniper Score
The confirmation sequence then waits for:
• bullish displacement
• a close above the SMT candle high
• FVG and/or micro-structure evidence according to the active preset
The bullish SMT marker is context.
The final blue UP label is the completed signal.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔴 BEARISH SMT LOGIC
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A bearish SMT candidate begins at prior highs.
A bearish sweep divergence exists when either:
• the chart symbol trades above its prior high while the comparison market does not trade above its corresponding prior high
• the comparison market trades above its prior high while the chart symbol does not trade above its corresponding prior high
The sweeping market must reclaim the prior-high reference when reclaim validation is active.
The completed chart candle must also satisfy the active quality requirements.
The default Sniper profile evaluates:
• sufficient ATR-normalized sweep depth
• bearish chart-candle direction
• a close in the weaker portion of the candle
• minimum candle-range expansion
• minimum Base Quality Score
• minimum positive pair correlation
• location near the upper portion of the external range
• minimum divergence separation
• minimum Sniper Score
• directional SMT cooldown availability
When the bearish SMT event is confirmed, the engine stores:
• the SMT high as the bearish invalidation extreme
• the SMT low as the bearish reaction-break trigger
• the current ATR
• the current Base Quality Score
• the current Sniper Score
The confirmation sequence then waits for:
• bearish displacement
• a close below the SMT candle low
• FVG and/or micro-structure evidence according to the active preset
The bearish SMT marker is context.
The final orange DOWN label is the completed signal.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💎 SMT QUALITY FILTER SYSTEM
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The script calculates separate bullish and bearish Base Quality Scores.
The score evaluates the completed SMT candle and its underlying liquidity event.
Each score is limited to 0–100.
The components are:
Sweep Role — maximum 25 points
The event must contain a valid one-market liquidity sweep.
Only one market should take the corresponding prior high or prior low.
Reclaim — maximum 20 points
The sweeping market must close back inside its prior liquidity reference.
Sweep Depth — maximum 20 points
The distance beyond the reference is measured relative to the corresponding market’s ATR.
Chart Candle Direction — maximum 15 points
Bullish SMT prefers a bullish chart candle.
Bearish SMT prefers a bearish chart candle.
Rejection Close — maximum 10 points
Bullish SMT prefers the chart close toward the high of the candle.
Bearish SMT prefers the chart close toward the low.
Range Expansion — maximum 10 points
The chart candle’s total range is compared with chart ATR.
The total score structure is:
25 + 20 + 20 + 15 + 10 + 10 = 100 points.
Preset-dependent minimum Base Quality Scores are:
• Standard: 60
• Sniper: 75
• Elite: 85
The Base Quality Score is not a win rate.
It is not a probability.
It measures how closely the completed SMT event matches the engine’s liquidity and candle-quality framework.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📏 VOLATILITY / ATR NORMALIZATION FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator uses ATR normalization to compare distances across changing volatility conditions.
ATR normalization is applied to:
• chart-side sweep depth
• comparison-side sweep depth
• divergence separation
• displacement body size
• setup invalidation buffer
• chart-candle range expansion
Sweep depth is calculated in relation to the ATR of the market that performed the sweep.
For example:
Chart Sweep Depth = distance beyond chart reference / chart ATR.
Comparison Sweep Depth = distance beyond comparison reference / comparison ATR.
Preset-dependent minimum sweep depth is:
• Standard: 0.04 ATR
• Sniper: 0.10 ATR
• Elite: 0.18 ATR
The chart candle must also meet a minimum range-to-ATR requirement:
• Standard: 0.40 ATR
• Sniper: 0.60 ATR
• Elite: 0.85 ATR
The setup invalidation buffer is based on the ATR stored when the SMT event occurs.
The default buffer is 0.10 ATR beyond the SMT extreme.
ATR normalization helps reduce dependence on raw price units.
It does not make one configuration universal.
Different symbols, sessions, data feeds, and market conditions can still produce different behavior.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🕯️ DISPLACEMENT QUALITY FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
After an SMT event is accepted, the engine requires directional displacement before a final signal can appear.
A bullish displacement candle requires:
• a confirmed closed candle
• close above open
• body size of at least 0.45 ATR
• body-to-range ratio of at least 0.55
• upper wick no greater than 0.35 of the full candle range
A bearish displacement candle requires:
• a confirmed closed candle
• close below open
• body size of at least 0.45 ATR
• body-to-range ratio of at least 0.55
• lower wick no greater than 0.35 of the full candle range
bool bullishDisplacement =
barstate.isconfirmed and
close > open and
signalCandleBody >= chartAtr * displacementBodyAtr and
signalBodyRatio >= displacementBodyPercent and
bullishOppositeWickRatio <= maximumOppositeWickPercent and
bullishPreviousBreakPass
The bearish process is mirrored.
The previous-bar break option is disabled in the locked default engine.
The more important directional reaction requirement is the SMT-candle break.
Displacement confirms that the market produced a completed directional response after the SMT event.
It does not guarantee continuation.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 REACTION STRENGTH FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The engine does not require every confirmation component to appear on the same candle.
Instead, reaction evidence can accumulate across separate closed candles inside the temporary confirmation window.
The engine tracks:
• displacement
• SMT-candle break
• Fair Value Gap
• micro-structure break
Bullish SMT-candle break:
• price must close above the stored SMT candle high
Bearish SMT-candle break:
• price must close below the stored SMT candle low
Bullish FVG:
• current low is above the high from two bars earlier
Bearish FVG:
• current high is below the low from two bars earlier
Bullish micro-structure break:
• current close exceeds the highest high from the previous five closed bars
Bearish micro-structure break:
• current close falls below the lowest low from the previous five closed bars
Evidence is persistent while the setup remains active.
For example:
SMT event
→ displacement appears
→ FVG appears later
→ structure break appears on another candle
→ final signal confirms
The active Engine Preset determines which accumulated evidence is required.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧼 CONFIRMED SIGNAL FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Permanent SMT events and final UP / DOWN labels wait for candle close.
The engine uses confirmed-bar checks for:
• raw SMT candidates
• final SMT acceptance
• displacement
• FVG detection
• micro-structure breaks
• setup invalidation
• final UP signals
• final DOWN signals
The comparison-market request uses lookahead_off.
Rolling liquidity references exclude the current candle.
No future candle is used to decide whether the current candle contains an SMT event.
No final signal is plotted back onto the original SMT candle after later evidence becomes available.
The confirmation opportunity is temporary.
The default window is eight bars.
The minimum delay is one bar after the SMT event.
If the active evidence does not complete in time, the setup expires.
Historical output can still change when:
• Engine Preset changes
• comparison symbol changes
• Auto or Manual mode changes
• chart symbol changes
• timeframe changes
• exchange or broker feed changes
• historical data is revised
• the loaded history range changes
Confirmed-close logic prevents unfinished-candle conditions from becoming permanent chart signals.
It does not mean all brokers or data feeds will produce identical historical output.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 ENTRY MODEL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMT Sniper Entry Engine uses a confirmed-signal entry model rather than a built-in broker-order model.
A final directional setup is created only when:
• a qualified SMT event exists
• the confirmation window is open
• the setup has not invalidated
• all preset-required evidence has been accumulated
• final signal cooldown is available
• the current candle is confirmed
The final signal reference is the close of the candle where the UP or DOWN label is printed.
For an UP setup:
• the label appears below the confirmed signal candle
• the signal represents completed bullish SMT confirmation
For a DOWN setup:
• the label appears above the confirmed signal candle
• the signal represents completed bearish SMT confirmation
The script does not automatically calculate:
• an entry line
• a stop-loss level
• take-profit targets
• position size
• account risk
• broker quantity
• trade outcome
The final signal-bar close can be used as an analytical reference.
It is not a guaranteed fill.
Users must define their own execution, invalidation, stop, target, and risk model.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔗 COMPARISON MARKET MODEL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator supports Auto and Manual comparison-symbol modes.
Auto mode recognizes common ticker text and assigns a predefined positively related market.
Built-in mappings include:
Metals
• XAU or GOLD → OANDA:XAGUSD
• XAG or SILVER → OANDA:XAUUSD
Indices
• NAS, US100, USTEC, NDX, or NQ → OANDA:SPX500USD
• SPX, US500, SP500, or ES → OANDA:NAS100USD
• US30, DJI, DOW, or YM → OANDA:SPX500USD
Cryptocurrencies
• BTC → BINANCE:ETHUSDT
• ETH → BINANCE:BTCUSDT
Forex majors
• EURUSD ↔ GBPUSD
• AUDUSD ↔ NZDUSD
• USDCAD ↔ USDCHF
• USDJPY → CADJPY
JPY crosses
• EURJPY ↔ GBPJPY
• AUDJPY ↔ NZDJPY
• CADJPY → USDJPY
• CHFJPY → EURJPY
EUR and GBP crosses
• EURAUD ↔ GBPAUD
• EURNZD ↔ GBPNZD
• EURCAD ↔ GBPCAD
• EURCHF ↔ GBPCHF
• EURGBP → GBPUSD
AUD and NZD crosses
• AUDCAD ↔ NZDCAD
• AUDCHF ↔ NZDCHF
• AUDNZD → NZDUSD
Auto mode is based on ticker-name recognition.
Broker symbols can include prefixes, suffixes, futures contract codes, or synthetic names that are not recognized by the built-in matrix.
When the chart symbol is not recognized, the engine can fall back to the Manual Comparison Symbol value.
The dashboard should therefore be checked before relying on Auto mode.
Manual mode allows the user to select the comparison market directly.
The current engine is designed for positively correlated relationships.
Selecting an inversely related market can make the correlation and SMT logic unsuitable.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 SNIPER SCORE MODEL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The engine produces separate bullish and bearish Sniper Scores.
The Sniper Score evaluates broader context around the SMT event.
The maximum score is 100.
The structure is:
Base SMT Quality — maximum 35 points
The 0–100 Base Quality Score contributes 35% of its value.
Pair Correlation — maximum 25 points
Positive effective correlation contributes proportionally.
External-Range Location — maximum 20 points
Bullish SMT receives this component when it occurs below the active maximum bullish range position.
Bearish SMT receives this component when it occurs above the active minimum bearish range position.
Divergence Separation — maximum 10 points
The event receives this component when the non-sweeping market holds its reference by at least the required ATR-normalized distance.
Sweep Depth — maximum 10 points
A valid minimum sweep receives five points.
A sweep at least 1.5 times the minimum depth receives ten points.
Minimum accepted Sniper Scores are:
• Standard: 60
• Sniper: 78
• Elite: 88
Minimum positive pair correlation is:
• Standard: 0.35
• Sniper: 0.55
• Elite: 0.70
External-range requirements are:
Bullish maximum position
• Standard: 0.45
• Sniper: 0.33
• Elite: 0.25
Bearish minimum position
• Standard: 0.55
• Sniper: 0.67
• Elite: 0.75
Minimum divergence separation is:
• Standard: 0.00 ATR
• Sniper: 0.03 ATR
• Elite: 0.08 ATR
The Sniper Score is not a probability.
A score of 88 does not mean an 88% probability of success.
It measures rule-based confluence according to this script’s internal framework.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📦 ACTIVE SMT / FVG VISUAL SYSTEM
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The script separates SMT context from final signal confirmation.
Historical SMT visuals can include:
• a dotted line from the prior chart-side liquidity reference to the SMT candle
• a minimal bullish or bearish marker near the SMT event
The default historical visual system keeps recent objects only.
The default limits are:
• eight bullish SMT lines
• eight bullish SMT markers
• eight bearish SMT lines
• eight bearish SMT markers
• ten final signal labels
• six signal FVG boxes
Older visual objects can be removed when the corresponding recent-only limit is exceeded.
This is chart-object management.
It does not move a signal to another candle.
Final signal visuals include:
UP
• blue label
• white bold-italic text
• printed below the confirmed signal candle
DOWN
• orange label
• white bold-italic text
• printed above the confirmed signal candle
Signal FVG Box
• appears only when stored FVG evidence exists
• uses the FVG that participated in the active confirmation sequence
• extends 12 bars to the right
• uses a lightly shaded bullish or bearish fill
The FVG box is an analytical confirmation visual.
It is not a guaranteed support, resistance, entry, stop, or target zone.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚦 ONE ACTIVE SMT SETUP AT A TIME
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The script maintains one active pending SMT confirmation sequence at a time.
When a qualified bullish SMT event appears:
• the active setup direction becomes bullish
• the bullish SMT extreme and trigger are stored
• the evidence state is reset
When a qualified bearish SMT event appears:
• the active setup direction becomes bearish
• the bearish SMT extreme and trigger are stored
• the evidence state is reset
A newly accepted SMT event can therefore replace the currently stored pending setup state.
The active setup remains in memory until:
• the final UP signal confirms
• the final DOWN signal confirms
• the setup invalidates
• the setup expires
• another accepted SMT event overwrites the pending state
This design prevents multiple overlapping confirmation sequences from creating an unclear chart state.
It does not prevent the user from performing independent analysis on other markets or timeframes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠️ SEQUENTIAL CONFIRMATION WINDOW HANDLING
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The default confirmation window is eight bars.
The final signal cannot appear on the original SMT candle because the minimum bars after SMT is one.
The engine monitors each completed candle inside the window.
Evidence can be accumulated in different orders.
For example:
SMT
→ displacement
→ SMT-candle break
→ FVG
→ final signal
or:
SMT
→ FVG
→ displacement
→ SMT-candle break
→ structure break
→ final signal
Preset behavior:
Standard
Uses Reactive confirmation.
Requires:
• displacement
• SMT-candle break
Sniper
Uses Confirmed confirmation.
Requires:
• displacement
• SMT-candle break
• FVG or micro-structure break
Elite
Uses Elite confirmation.
Requires:
• displacement
• SMT-candle break
• FVG
• micro-structure break
The engine does not use the historical high-low sequence inside a candle to simulate order execution.
It evaluates whether each closed candle satisfied a defined piece of evidence.
If the setup does not complete inside the window, it expires.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🏷️ SMT SNIPER LABELS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator uses separate context and final-signal labels.
SMT Context Markers
The default SMT marker layout is Minimal.
Bullish SMT uses an upward marker.
Bearish SMT uses a downward marker.
The marker appears on the actual SMT confirmation candle.
Its tooltip can include:
• bullish or bearish SMT direction
• Sniper Score
• Base Quality Score
• effective pair correlation
• active comparison symbol
Final Signal Labels
The final labels display:
𝙐𝙋
or:
𝘿𝙊𝙒𝙉
UP uses a blue background.
DOWN uses an orange background.
The text is white.
Available final-label sizes are:
• Tiny
• Small
• Normal
• Large
• Huge
Normal is the default.
The UP tooltip can include:
• bullish SMT confirmation mode
• final stored Sniper Score
• final stored Base Quality Score
The DOWN tooltip contains the mirrored information.
The SMT marker and final signal label serve different purposes.
The SMT marker identifies the qualified correlated-market divergence.
The UP or DOWN label identifies the completed sequential confirmation.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📍 SMT DISPLAY MODES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator operates directly on the main price chart.
The public Display settings provide control over:
Show SMT
Shows or hides historical SMT markers and reference lines.
Show UP / DOWN
Shows or hides final signal labels.
UP / DOWN Label Size
Controls the size of final UP and DOWN labels.
Show Signal FVG
Shows or hides the stored FVG box associated with a final signal.
Show Dashboard
Shows or hides the premium bottom-right dashboard.
The internal visual profile uses:
• Clean layout
• Recent Only historical display
• dotted SMT reference lines
• minimal SMT markers
• normal SMT marker size
• limited historical object counts
• no separate displacement circles by default
Input values are hidden from PulseWire’s status line.
Diagnostic plots remain available in the Data Window without adding visible price-scale clutter.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧹 SETUP INVALIDATION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Not every accepted SMT event remains eligible.
A bullish setup invalidates when a completed candle closes below:
SMT low − stored SMT ATR × 0.10.
A bearish setup invalidates when a completed candle closes above:
SMT high + stored SMT ATR × 0.10.
The ATR value is stored when the SMT event appears.
This keeps the invalidation buffer linked to the volatility present when the setup was created.
A setup can also fail to produce a final signal because:
• the confirmation window expires
• displacement never appears
• the SMT candle is not broken
• required FVG evidence does not appear
• required structure evidence does not appear
• the final signal cooldown is active
• a newly accepted SMT event replaces the pending state
The directional SMT cooldown is 15 bars.
The final signal cooldown is eight bars.
A rejected, invalidated, or expired pending sequence does not print a final UP or DOWN label.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📟 DASHBOARD
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator includes a premium dashboard in the bottom-right corner of the chart.
The header displays:
trade_w_samet • SMT SNIPER
Current State
Possible states include:
• SCANNING MARKET
• BULLISH SMT DETECTED
• BEARISH SMT DETECTED
• BULLISH SETUP BUILDING
• BEARISH SETUP BUILDING
• UP SIGNAL CONFIRMED

Signal Score
When a relevant setup is active, the dashboard displays:
current Sniper Score / required Sniper Score.
When no setup is active, it displays:
NO ACTIVE SETUP.
UP / DOWN Counts
Displays the number of final confirmed UP and DOWN signals calculated on the loaded chart history.
Footer
Displays:
• BAR-CLOSE
• NON-REPAINT
• LIVE
The dashboard is not PulseWire Strategy Tester.
It does not display:
• win rate
• profit factor
• expectancy
• drawdown
• net profit
• broker-verified results
UP and DOWN counts are signal counts only.
“LIVE” means the dashboard updates with the latest available script state.
It does not mean the script predicts unfinished intrabar outcomes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚨 ALERT SYSTEM
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMT Sniper Entry Engine includes static PulseWire alert conditions for:
• Bullish SMT
• Bearish SMT
• UP
• DOWN
• Any Signal
• Any SMT
Bullish SMT
Triggers when a bullish SMT event passes the complete Base Quality and Sniper acceptance process.
Bearish SMT
Triggers when a bearish SMT event passes the mirrored acceptance process.
UP
Triggers when the bullish sequential confirmation process is complete.
DOWN
Triggers when the bearish sequential confirmation process is complete.
Any Signal
Combines final UP and DOWN conditions.
Any SMT
Combines bullish and bearish SMT conditions.
The script also includes dynamic alert() messages for final UP and DOWN signals.
Dynamic messages can include:
• product name
• direction
• chart ticker
• chart timeframe
• confirmed close price
• active comparison symbol
if enableAlerts
if buySignal
alert(
"SMT Sniper | UP | " +
syminfo.ticker +
" | " +
timeframe.period +
" | Close: " +
str.tostring(close, format.mintick) +
" | Comparison: " +
comparisonSymbol,
alert.freq_once_per_bar_close)
The DOWN dynamic message uses the mirrored format.
Dynamic final-signal alerts use once-per-bar-close frequency.
Alerts are monitoring tools.
They do not place, modify, or close broker orders.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔔 HOW TO USE ALERTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
For separate static conditions:
1. Add SMT Sniper Entry Engine to the chart.
2. Open PulseWire’s Create Alert window.
3. Select SMT Sniper as the condition.
4. Choose Bullish SMT, Bearish SMT, UP, DOWN, Any Signal, or Any SMT.
5. Select the desired notification method.
6. Use a confirmed-bar frequency where appropriate.
7. Test the alert before relying on it.
For one combined dynamic final-signal alert:
1. Enable Alerts in the indicator settings.
2. Open PulseWire’s Create Alert window.
3. Select SMT Sniper.
4. Select Any alert() function call.
5. Configure the delivery method.
6. Test the UP and DOWN message format.
The combined dynamic alert sends final UP and DOWN events through one PulseWire alert.
Static Any Signal also combines UP and DOWN conditions, but uses the static alertcondition() message.
When indicator settings, code, symbol, or timeframe are materially changed, an already-created PulseWire alert can continue using the script snapshot stored when that alert was created.
Recreate alerts after important configuration changes.
Alert delivery can depend on:
• PulseWire servers
• selected symbol
• selected timeframe
• market-data availability
• realtime feed status
• symbol session
• user alert configuration
• webhook or external-service availability
Creating an alert does not guarantee broker execution.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧪 HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A practical workflow:
1. Add SMT Sniper Entry Engine to a standard candlestick chart.
2. Begin with Engine Preset set to Sniper.
3. Keep Comparison Symbol Mode on Auto for supported symbols.
4. Review the Comparison field in the dashboard.
5. If the automatic market is not appropriate, switch to Manual.
6. Select a positively related comparison market.
7. Keep Show SMT enabled while learning the setup sequence.
8. Observe the historical liquidity reference line.
9. Observe the minimal SMT marker.
10. Treat the SMT marker as context, not as the final signal.
11. Watch the dashboard state.
12. Wait for a blue UP or orange DOWN label.
13. Review the active Sniper Score and required threshold.
14. Review the correlation value.
15. Review the signal FVG box when one is available.
16. Use alerts for monitoring rather than blind execution.
17. Evaluate broader market structure independently.
18. Review session conditions, volatility, spread, and news risk.
19. Define personal entry, invalidation, stop, target, and position-size rules.
20. Test the exact symbol, timeframe, exchange, broker feed, and comparison pair personally used.
The indicator is designed for structured review.
It should not be treated as an automatic decision-maker.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 WHAT MAKES THIS SCRIPT ORIGINAL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMT divergence, liquidity sweeps, correlation, ATR, Fair Value Gaps, and structure breaks are familiar technical-analysis concepts.
These concepts are not unique by themselves.
The originality of SMT Sniper Entry Engine lies in the coordinated process applied to them:
automatic comparison-market selection
→ closed-bar rolling liquidity references
→ one-market liquidity sweep
→ same-bar reclaim
→ ATR-normalized Base Quality Score
→ log-return pair correlation
→ external-range location
→ ATR-normalized divergence separation
→ 0–100 Sniper Score
→ preset-driven SMT acceptance
→ temporary sequential confirmation
→ displacement evidence
→ SMT-candle break
→ FVG and micro-structure evidence
→ ATR-buffered invalidation
→ setup expiration
→ permanent UP or DOWN signal
→ recent-only visual management
→ static and dynamic alerts
→ premium diagnostic dashboard
Distinctive implementation features include:
• accepting a valid sweep from either market
• using rolling closed-bar references instead of pivot confirmation
• separating the SMT event from the final signal
• calculating separate Base Quality and Sniper Scores
• requiring positive pair correlation according to preset
• using preset-specific external-range thresholds
• measuring divergence separation relative to ATR
• accumulating confirmation evidence across separate candles
• storing the SMT candle as the reaction trigger
• storing ATR at the moment the setup is armed
• using different confirmation strictness for Standard, Sniper, and Elite
• limiting historical objects without relocating signals
• providing automatic comparison-market assistance with manual override
• supporting both static and combined dynamic alerts
• exposing detailed diagnostics through the Data Window
The script is not a simple combination of unrelated indicators.
Every module supports the same objective: determining whether a closed-bar SMT divergence has enough liquidity, correlation, location, reaction, and confirmation evidence to become a permanent final signal.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠️ IMPORTANT PRACTICAL NOTES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Signal frequency depends on:
• Engine Preset
• chart symbol
• comparison symbol
• ticker naming
• timeframe
• session
• volatility
• pair correlation
• liquidity-reference structure
• sweep depth
• chart-candle quality
• external-range location
• divergence separation
• directional cooldown
• post-SMT displacement
• SMT-candle break
• FVG evidence
• micro-structure evidence
• final signal cooldown
• available history
• data provider
Standard can produce more setups.
Elite can produce substantially fewer setups.
Fewer signals do not guarantee better results.
The built-in Auto matrix uses predefined OANDA and BINANCE symbols.
The chart symbol can come from another broker or exchange.
Different feeds can produce:
• different highs and lows
• different candle closes
• different ATR values
• different liquidity sweeps
• different correlation readings
• different final signals
Manual mode can be used when comparison-feed consistency is important.
The current engine expects a positive relationship.
An inversely related comparison market should not be selected.
The dashboard’s UP and DOWN values are signal counts.
They are not wins and losses.
The Signal Score is a confluence score.
It is not historical accuracy.
The SMT marker is not the final signal.
The final UP or DOWN label appears after post-SMT confirmation.
Changing settings recalculates historical conditions.
Changing the comparison market can materially change the script’s output.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠️ LIMITATIONS AND SHORTCOMINGS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This script has important limitations:
It does not guarantee profitable trades.
It does not predict future price movement.
It does not execute orders.
It does not place broker stops.
It does not place take-profit orders.
It does not calculate position size.
It does not include spread.
It does not include commission.
It does not include slippage.
It does not include latency.
It does not model partial fills.
It does not model financing or swap.
It does not evaluate order-book conditions.
It does not evaluate news risk.
It uses bar-based OHLC data.
It does not reconstruct exact intrabar price sequence.
It assumes a positive comparison relationship.
Its automatic matrix cannot recognize every broker symbol.
Unsupported Auto symbols can use the Manual Comparison fallback.
Correlation can change over time.
A historically correlated pair can temporarily decouple.
A confirmed SMT divergence can fail.
A displacement candle can be followed by reversal.
An FVG can be filled immediately.
A micro-structure break can become a false break.
A high Base Quality Score can still fail.
A high Sniper Score can still fail.
The Signal Score is not a win probability.
The dashboard is not PulseWire Strategy Tester.
Signal counts are not audited account performance.
The script does not provide verified profitability statistics.
The script does not provide broker-verified trade outcomes.
Alert delivery depends on PulseWire and user configuration.
Changing settings changes historical calculations.
Changing symbol, exchange, session, timeframe, or feed can change signals.
Available history can affect rolling calculations.
Permanent final signals wait for candle close.
The final label can therefore appear later than a discretionary intrabar entry.
For these reasons, the indicator should be used as an educational decision-support tool, not as a standalone automated strategy.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧭 BEST PRACTICE SUGGESTIONS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
For the default selective profile:
• use standard candlesticks
• begin with Sniper preset
• keep Auto mode only when the dashboard comparison is appropriate
• use Manual mode for broker-specific comparison control
• select positively related markets
• keep Show SMT enabled while learning
• distinguish the SMT marker from the final signal
• wait for the final UP or DOWN label
• review the correlation value
• review the active Signal Score
• review external market structure independently
• consider session liquidity and volatility
• use personal stop placement
• use personal target planning
• use personal position sizing
• test alerts before depending on them
• test the exact symbol and timeframe personally used
For additional frequency:
• use Standard preset
Standard reduces:
• Base Quality requirements
• correlation requirements
• range-location restrictions
• divergence-separation requirements
• Sniper Score threshold
• final confirmation evidence
For additional selectivity:
• use Elite preset
Elite increases:
• minimum sweep depth
• rejection-close requirement
• minimum range expansion
• Base Quality threshold
• correlation threshold
• external-range restriction
• divergence-separation threshold
• Sniper Score threshold
• final evidence requirement
Always:
• wait for the candle to close
• verify the active comparison symbol
• use the SMT marker as context
• use the final signal as confirmation
• review broader structure independently
• review personal risk before any trade
• treat alerts as monitoring tools
• remember that every confirmed setup can fail

The script is designed to support structured analysis.
It does not promise profitable results.
It does not remove market risk.
It does not execute trades.
It does not calculate position size.
It does not provide a built-in TP / SL trade-management model.
It should not be used as a blind UP / DOWN system.
Repainting and Timing Disclosure
SMT Sniper Entry Engine is designed around confirmed-bar calculations.
Permanent SMT events and final UP / DOWN labels use barstate.isconfirmed.
The comparison-market request uses:
• barmerge.gaps_off
• barmerge.lookahead_off
Liquidity references use previous closed candles.
The current candle is excluded from the prior-reference calculation.
The script does not use:
• pivot-high functions
• pivot-low functions
• future-bar confirmation
• negative plot offsets
• historical signal backplotting
• later relocation of final signal labels
A final UP or DOWN signal appears on the candle where the complete confirmation sequence becomes valid.
It is not moved backward to the original SMT candle.
Historical drawing cleanup can delete older lines, markers, labels, or boxes when the recent-object limit is exceeded.
Deleting an old drawing is not repainting.
The original signal bar is not changed.
Historical results can still differ when:
• settings are changed
• comparison symbols are changed
• Auto or Manual mode is changed
• chart symbols are changed
• timeframes are changed
• broker or exchange feeds are changed
• historical data is revised
• available chart history is changed
Realtime behavior also depends on when PulseWire receives the final data for the closing candle.
Confirmed-close design reduces unfinished-candle changes.
It does not eliminate market risk, data-feed differences, or alert-delivery limitations.

Indicator
Optimal Trade Entry + Silver Bullet [Quantum Algo]Optimal Trade Entry + Silver Bullet
====================================================
🔶 OVERVIEW
Optimal Trade Entry + Silver Bullet is an automated ICT-style Fibonacci retracement engine that combines the Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) concept with the three Silver Bullet time windows. The indicator confirms market structure through swing highs and swing lows, detects a break of structure, automatically anchors a Fibonacci grid to the impulse leg, and highlights the 61.8% to 79% retracement zone — the Optimal Trade Entry zone — as a gradient that intensifies toward the 70.5% sweet spot. Every zone tap is graded with a transparent confluence score built from time-of-day windows, fair value gaps, and liquidity sweeps.
The goal is simple: remove the two biggest sources of error in discretionary Optimal Trade Entry trading — anchoring the Fibonacci retracement to the wrong leg, and taking entries outside the hours when the model statistically performs.
🔶 WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL TRADE ENTRY ZONE?
The Optimal Trade Entry is a smart money concept describing the discount (in an uptrend) or premium (in a downtrend) portion of an impulse leg where institutional participants typically complete their entries after a trend has been confirmed. It is defined as the area between the 61.8% and 79% Fibonacci retracement of the most recent impulse, with the 70.5% level acting as the statistical sweet spot. Price retracing into this zone after a break of structure offers a defined-risk entry: the stop belongs beyond the origin of the leg, and the targets project into the extension levels beyond the impulse extreme.
🔶 WHAT ARE THE SILVER BULLET WINDOWS?
The Silver Bullet model restricts trading to three specific one-hour windows in New York time, when algorithmic price delivery is most likely to seek liquidity and fill fair value gaps:
- London Open window — 03:00 to 04:00
- New York Morning window — 10:00 to 11:00
- New York Afternoon window — 14:00 to 15:00
This indicator shades each window on intraday charts, labels the window open, and treats window activity as a scoring input: an Optimal Trade Entry tap that occurs inside an active window grades higher than one that occurs outside it.
🔶 WHY THIS SCRIPT IS ORIGINAL
1. Pivot-and-shift automatic anchoring. The Fibonacci grid is never drawn from arbitrary pivots and never requires manual anchoring. It appears only after price closes through a confirmed swing point — a genuine break of structure — and anchors to the true origin of the impulse leg.
2. Dynamic leg stretching. While the trend continues printing new highs or new lows, the grid stretches with the market in real time, so the retracement zone is always measured against the current, mathematically complete leg — not a stale one.
3. Time-based signal qualification. The Silver Bullet windows are not decorative background shading. They are wired directly into the signal engine and the grading model, which is what separates this tool from a standard Fibonacci retracement indicator.
4. Transparent confluence grading. Every signal receives a grade of A+, A, B, or C based on four observable, verifiable conditions: entry zone tap, active Silver Bullet window, directional fair value gap formed inside a window on the current leg, and a liquidity sweep at the leg origin (the anchor pivot running the stops beyond the pivot before it). Nothing is hidden, nothing is repainted, and nothing is curve-fit.
🔶 HOW IT WORKS
Market structure engine: Swing highs and swing lows are confirmed with a symmetric pivot lookback. A candle close above the last confirmed swing high shifts the engine bullish; a close below the last confirmed swing low shifts it bearish. All signals are evaluated on closed bars only, so entries do not repaint.
Fibonacci retracement grid: On each break of structure the impulse leg is measured from the anchor pivot to the running extreme. The script plots the origin (1.0), equilibrium (0.5), the entry zone borders (0.618 and 0.79), the sweet spot (0.705, dotted), the impulse extreme (0.0), and two target extensions (default -0.27 and -0.62).
Entry zone gradient: The zone between 0.618 and 0.79 renders as four stacked slices whose opacity increases toward the 0.705 sweet spot, giving an immediate visual read of where the highest-probability fill sits.
Fair value gap engine: Three-candle imbalances that clear a minimum size threshold (measured against average true range) are boxed on the chart. By default only gaps forming inside an active Silver Bullet window are drawn, and every gap grays out automatically once price mitigates it, keeping the chart clean.
Liquidity sweep detection: When the anchor pivot of a new leg trades through the pivot before it — sell-side liquidity taken before a bullish leg, or buy-side liquidity taken before a bearish leg — the setup is flagged as a sweep and grades higher.
Trade plan projection: When price taps the entry zone and passes the active filters, the script prints a graded signal marker plus Entry, Stop (beyond the leg origin with an average-true-range buffer), Target One, and Target Two, each labeled with its exact price.
Dashboard: A compact panel tracks directional bias, live retracement percentage, entry zone status, sweet spot price, the active Silver Bullet window, fair value gap confluence count, and liquidity sweep status at a glance.
🔶 HOW TO USE IT
1. Apply the indicator to an intraday chart. One-minute to fifteen-minute timeframes suit the Silver Bullet windows best; the Fibonacci engine itself works on any timeframe.
2. Wait for the dashboard bias to flip after a break of structure.
3. Let price retrace. The dashboard shows the live retracement percentage as price approaches the Optimal Trade Entry zone.
4. The strongest setups tap the gradient inside an active Silver Bullet window after a liquidity sweep, with a fair value gap in the direction of the leg — that is the A+ profile.
5. Use the printed Entry, Stop, and Target levels as reference geometry, then apply your own position sizing and risk management.
6. Tighten or relax the engine with the two signal filters: Require Active Silver Bullet Window and Require Fair Value Gap Confluence.
🔶 SETTINGS
- Swing Detection Length — pivot lookback controlling structure size; higher values track larger legs.
- Completed Setups To Keep, Fair Value Gaps To Keep, Trade Plans To Keep — cap how many historical drawings remain, so the chart stays clean and the auto-scale stays anchored to current price.
- Independent toggles for each Silver Bullet window, the Fibonacci grid, the zone gradient, equilibrium, targets, and the dashboard.
- Fully customizable colors and dashboard position.
🔶 ALERTS
- Bullish Optimal Trade Entry — price tapped the bullish zone and passed the active filters.
- Bearish Optimal Trade Entry — price tapped the bearish zone and passed the active filters.
- Silver Bullet Window Opened — one of the three windows just began.
🔶 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does the indicator repaint? Entries are evaluated on closed bars only. Swing pivots require confirmation by design, which introduces intentional lag but keeps historical signals fixed.
Which markets does it work on? Any symbol with candle data — cryptocurrency, forex, gold, indices, stocks, and futures. The Silver Bullet windows reference New York time regardless of your chart timezone.
Which timeframe is best? The Silver Bullet windows require an intraday chart (sixty minutes or below). The one-minute to fifteen-minute range is the classic application; the Optimal Trade Entry engine alone also functions on higher timeframes.
What does the grade mean? It is a count of observable confluences (zone tap, window, gap, sweep) — a transparency tool, not a win-rate prediction.
🔶 LIMITATIONS
Pivot confirmation is intentionally delayed by the swing length, so the engine describes confirmed structure rather than predicting it. Retracements can exceed the zone and invalidate the leg during strong counter-moves. Grades measure confluence, not probability of profit. No indicator replaces independent analysis.

Fib OTE + FVG Confluence [Viprasol]Fib OTE + FVG Confluence — high-probability ICT entries where two edges agree
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
THE IDEA
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
A Fair Value Gap is a good entry zone. An OTE (Optimal Trade Entry) retracement is a
good entry zone. But an FVG that sits INSIDE the OTE — that's the setup ICT traders
actually wait for. This tool maps the higher-timeframe OTE / premium-discount zone,
detects Fair Value Gaps, and does the one thing that matters: it highlights and ALERTS
you when price taps an FVG that lands inside the OTE.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1. HTF OTE MAP — From the previous candle range of your chosen higher timeframe
(non-repainting), it builds the Fibonacci map: the OTE band (default 0.618-0.786),
the equilibrium line (0.5) that splits premium from discount, and a directional bias
(Auto from the last HTF candle, or force Long/Short). In a long bias the OTE sits in
discount (below equilibrium) — where you want to buy; in a short bias it sits in
premium.
2. FAIR VALUE GAPS — Standard 3-candle imbalances (bullish `low > high `, bearish
`high < low `), with an optional displacement filter and a minimum-size filter to
cut noise. Each gap is drawn as a box and tracked until filled (Wick / Close /
Average mitigation).
3. CONFLUENCE — the point of the tool. A gap is "confluent" when it overlaps the OTE
band (strict) or, in the looser mode, when a bullish gap sits in discount / a bearish
gap sits in premium. Confluent gaps are highlighted with a ★. Turn on "Show ONLY
Confluent FVGs" and the chart reduces to just the high-probability zones.
4. ALERTS — Get notified when price TAPS a confluent FVG (and optionally when one
forms). One alert, delivered via app / email / SMS / webhook (Text or JSON message).
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ALERTS SETUP
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Create one alert → Condition: "Fib OTE + FVG Confluence" → "Any alert() function call",
then pick your delivery (app/email/SMS/webhook) in the dialog. Switch Message Format to
"JSON (webhook)" for bot/automation-friendly output. Messages carry direction, event
(FORMED/TAPPED), and the gap's price range.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
SETTINGS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
• HTF Fibonacci / OTE: timeframe, bias (Auto/Long/Short), OTE start/end, show map, colors.
• Fair Value Gaps: min gap %, displacement filter, fill mode, show-only-confluent, colors, box extend.
• Confluence & Alerts: confluence rule (Inside OTE / Favored half), highlight color, form/tap
alert toggles, frequency (once-per-bar-close = no repaint), Text/JSON.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW TO USE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1. Set the OTE higher timeframe (e.g. Daily on an intraday chart).
2. Let Auto bias pick direction, or force Long/Short to your plan.
3. Enable "Show ONLY Confluent FVGs" to see just gaps inside the OTE.
4. Create the alert and wait for a tap of a ★ confluent gap — that's your cue to do
your own analysis and manage risk.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
LIMITATIONS — PLEASE READ
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
• This is an awareness / confluence tool, not a strategy or signal service — no buy/sell
calls. A confluent tap is a location of interest, not a guarantee.
• The OTE map uses the previous HTF candle range and updates as new HTF candles form;
it reflects current context, not a fixed historical grid.
• FVGs are detected on the chart timeframe; confluence is judged against the OTE active
when each gap forms.
• Not financial advice. Trade at your own risk.

FVG + Order Block Toolkit [ForexCracked]🔷 OVERVIEW
Two of the most-watched smart money footprints on one clean chart. This toolkit auto-draws Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks as zones, keeps only the ones that still matter, and shows a live count in a compact dashboard. Fair value gaps are drawn as soft fills and order blocks as bordered blocks, so you can tell the two apart at a glance. It is free and open-source.
🔷 HOW IT DETECTS THE ZONES
Fair Value Gaps: a three-candle imbalance. A bullish FVG is marked when the low of the current candle sits above the high of the candle two bars back, leaving an untraded gap. A bearish FVG is the mirror. Gaps smaller than your Min FVG size (measured in ATR) are filtered out so the chart stays clean.
Order Blocks: displacement based. When a candle closes with a body larger than your Displacement setting (in ATR), the toolkit marks the last opposing candle before that move as the order block. A strong bullish move leaves a bullish order block on the last down candle, and the reverse for bearish.
🔷 ZONE MANAGEMENT
Every zone extends to the right until price closes through it (mitigated) or it passes the Max zone age. That means the boxes on your chart are the ones that are still unmitigated, not old clutter.
🔷 THE DASHBOARD
A compact, positionable panel shows the live count of unmitigated bullish and bearish Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks, plus a total. Drop it in any corner.
🔷 HOW TO USE
Treat the zones as areas of interest, not automatic trades. Watch for price to return to an unmitigated order block or fair value gap in the direction of your higher-timeframe bias, then confirm with your own analysis and use a stop. Higher timeframes produce fewer and stronger zones.
🔷 SETTINGS
Fair Value Gaps: show on/off, Min FVG size (x ATR), colours. Order Blocks: show on/off, Displacement (x ATR), OB lookback, colours. General: Max zone age, Extend right, Info panel + position.
🔷 ALERTS

FVG & OB Quality ScorerICT FVG & OB Quality Scorer
Core idea: Not all Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks are created equal. This indicator answers the question "Which FVG or Order Block will actually work?" by scoring every detected zone on 10 confluence pillars derived from ICT's (InnerCircleTrader) 2022–2024 Mentorship methodology.
How It Works
Every time an FVG or Order Block forms on the chart, the indicator runs it through a 10-factor scoring engine (each factor scored 0–10, total 0–100):
# Pillar What It Checks
❶ Displacement / CISD Was the move impulsive? Body > 70% of candle range = institutional candle. Also checks for Change in State of Delivery (close crossing prior candle's open).
❷ Liquidity Sweep Was BSL or SSL taken before the zone formed? Checks swing pivots, Prior Day High/Low, and IPDA 20-day levels.
❸ Premium / Discount Bullish zones in discount (< 50% of range) score high. Bearish zones in premium (> 50%) score high.
❹ Market Structure Is the zone aligned with the current trend (BOS)? With-trend = 10, counter-trend = 1.
❺ HTF Bias Does the Daily (configurable) candle direction agree with the zone? Misalignment = low probability.
❻ OTE Fibonacci Is the zone inside the 62%–79% Optimal Trade Entry retracement? The 70.5% "sweet spot" scores perfect 10.
❼ FVG + OB Overlap Is there a confluence zone where an FVG and Order Block exist at the same price level? This is ICT's highest-probability setup.
❽ Volume Was displacement volume above the 20-bar average? 3x+ average = clear institutional activity.
❾ Kill Zone Timing Formed during London KZ, NY AM KZ, or Silver Bullet windows? "Time supersedes price."
❿ Freshness First-touch zones score highest. Zones decay in score and fade in color as they age.
Grading Scale
Score Grade Meaning
86–100 S Elite — high conviction, full size
71–85 A/A+ Strong — tradeable with confirmation
51–70 B/B+ Above average — needs extra confluence
26–50 C/C+ Below average — watch only
0–25 D Weak — skip entirely
What You See On The Chart
Color-graded zones: Red (weak) → Orange → Gold → Green → Bright Green (elite)
FVGs = solid-border boxes labeled BISI / SIBI
Order Blocks = dashed-border boxes labeled +OB / -OB
CE line = dotted midline (Consequent Encroachment — ICT's 50% level)
MT line = solid midline on OBs (Mean Threshold — ICT's precision entry)
Score labels with letter grade — hover for full 10-pillar tooltip breakdown
Dashboard table ranking all active zones by score with market context (Structure, HTF Bias, Kill Zone status)
Zones fade in color as they age (freshness decay) and are removed/dimmed on mitigation
Key Settings
Min Score to Display — Set to 60+ to only see B+ and above (recommended for clean charts)
Mitigate On — Wick vs Close (ICT uses Close for higher conviction)
HTF Timeframe — Defaults to Daily; change to 4H for swing setups
IPDA Reference Lines — Toggle 20-day high/low institutional levels
Kill Zone sessions — All configurable in NY time Indicator
ICT Killzones & Silver BulletEN: Highlights the key ICT time windows on your chart — Killzones and Silver Bullet
sessions — so you instantly see when institutional activity is most likely.
A clean time-window tool for ICT / Smart Money traders. It shades the key intraday
windows directly on the chart, in New York time, regardless of your local timezone:
• Killzones — 7 fully customizable time windows (on/off, start and end by hour and
minute). Defaults follow the high-activity ICT macro windows around session opens.
• Silver Bullet — the three classic one-hour ICT windows where setups are hunted:
London (03:00–04:00 NY), NY AM (10:00–11:00 NY), NY PM (14:00–15:00 NY).
Every window is editable, has its own toggle, color, border style and optional label.
The indicator only draws a window while price is inside it, keeping the chart clean.
raders waste focus tracking the clock — when is London, when is the Silver Bullet,
is price inside a high-probability window. This tool marks every key window
automatically in NY time, so you never miss a session and never miscount the hours.
WHAT IT SHOWS
Shaded boxes appear only while price is inside a time window. Killzones use one color,
Silver Bullet windows another, each with an optional label.
KILLZONES (group "Killzones")
- "Show Killzones" — turn the whole module on/off.
- Color, border style (Solid/Dotted/Dashed/No border), border transparency, labels.
- 7 zones (KZ1–KZ7): each row = , NY time.
- Defaults follow ICT macro windows. Edit any zone to your own times.
SILVER BULLET (group "Silver Bullet")
- "Show Silver Bullet" — on/off, plus color, border transparency, labels.
- 3 classic one-hour windows (editable by hour, NY time):
London SB: 03:00–04:00
NY AM SB: 10:00–11:00
NY PM SB: 14:00–15:00
HOW TO USE
1. All times are New York — no manual timezone conversion needed.
2. Best on M15 and lower, where the windows are clearly visible.
3. Look for entries / liquidity grabs INSIDE these windows — that is when
institutional activity is most likely.
4. Disable the windows you don't trade to keep the chart clean.
WANT CLASSIC KILLZONES INSTEAD OF MACROS?
Set wider windows, e.g. London 02:00–05:00, NY AM 07:00–10:00, NY PM 13:30–16:00.
NOTE: This is an analytical timing tool, not financial advice. Always confirm with
price action and risk management. Indicator
Indicator
Sessionscope [Quantum Algo]Sessionscope is a time-based ICT killzone tool that plots the four primary intraday
killzones, projects the liquidity each one creates, and then measures what happens after
that liquidity is taken. It is built for traders who use Smart Money / ICT concepts and
want session context plus a quantified read on how each killzone behaves on their specific
instrument.
It is not a buy/sell signal system. It is a context and statistics tool.
WHAT IT PLOTS
- Four killzone range boxes, each with its high, low and equilibrium (50%) level.
- Forward-projected session liquidity: each closed killzone's high as buy-side liquidity
(BSL) and its low as sell-side liquidity (SSL).
- Liquidity sweep marks, recolored by outcome (reversal vs continuation).
- The New York midnight open (00:00 ET) as a daily reference line.
- A statistics dashboard summarizing each killzone over the full chart history.
THE FOUR KILLZONES
Default windows, in New York time (America/New_York):
- Asia 20:00 - 00:00
- London Open 02:00 - 05:00
- New York AM 07:00 - 10:00
- London Close 10:00 - 12:00
These are the conventional ICT killzone windows. Because the timezone is anchored to
America/New_York rather than a fixed UTC offset, the windows automatically follow US
daylight saving (EST/EDT) and stay aligned year-round. All four windows, names and colors
are fully editable, so you can shift them, repurpose one (for example to a New York PM or
Silver Bullet window), or adapt the New York window to index timing (08:30 - 11:00) if you
trade futures rather than forex.
SESSION LIQUIDITY (BSL / SSL)
While a killzone is open, the box tracks its developing high and low in real time. When the
killzone closes, those extremes are frozen and projected forward as horizontal liquidity
levels - the high as buy-side liquidity, the low as sell-side liquidity - and extended until
the next instance of that same session. A sweep is registered when price trades through a
projected level (a wick or close beyond the high, or beyond the low). The level can be frozen
at the moment of the sweep to keep the chart clean.
SWEEP OUTCOME ENGINE (the core idea)
Marking a sweep is common. Sessionscope goes further and classifies the outcome of every
sweep:
- High sweep -> REVERSAL if price closes back below the swept high within a configurable
number of bars; otherwise CONTINUATION.
- Low sweep -> REVERSAL if price closes back above the swept low within that window;
otherwise CONTINUATION.
A reversal is the classic ICT liquidity-grab outcome (the level is run, then rejected). A
continuation means the level broke and held (a genuine expansion). Each sweep mark is
recolored to its resolved outcome, and the result feeds the Rev% statistic below. This turns
the qualitative liquidity-grab premise into a measured, per-session number.
NEW YORK MIDNIGHT OPEN
The first traded price after 00:00 America/New_York is captured each day and drawn as a
horizontal reference for that session - a level many ICT traders use as a daily equilibrium
anchor. It is fixed once printed and does not move.
STATISTICS DASHBOARD
For each enabled killzone, accumulated over the entire visible chart history:
- Avg Rng : average high-to-low range of the session, in price.
- xATR : that average range expressed as a multiple of the daily ATR(14), so you can see
which killzone expands most relative to typical daily volatility.
- Swept% : how often the session's liquidity is taken - the share of its high and low
levels that get swept before the session next reopens.
- Rev% : of the sweeps that occurred, how often price reversed back inside the range
(a grab) rather than continuing through (a breakout).
- Bias% : share of sessions that closed above their open (directional tendency).
- n : number of completed sessions in the sample.
Read together, Swept% and Rev% answer two distinct questions: how often does this killzone's
liquidity get run, and when it does, how often does it snap back? Bias% and xATR add the
session's directional lean and its size relative to the day.
HOW IT WORKS (calculation notes)
- Sessions are detected with Pine's time/session function in the chosen timezone; the box
high/low are running extremes of the bars inside each window.
- The daily ATR used for xATR is requested from the 1D timeframe using an offset expression
with lookahead disabled, so it is fully confirmed and constant intraday (no lookahead bias).
- Sweep outcomes are evaluated only on confirmed price relative to fixed, already-closed
levels.
- Statistics are accumulated over the full chart history independently of what is drawn.
- To keep the price scale anchored to current price, only a configurable number of recent
sessions of boxes and levels are kept on the chart (older drawings are removed); this does
not affect the statistics, which always use full history.
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
Most session and killzone tools stop at colored boxes, session highs/lows, midpoints and a
basic range table. Sessionscope adds the outcome layer: it does not just show that liquidity
was swept, it measures whether each session's sweeps tend to reverse or continue, and colors
them accordingly. The Rev% metric, combined with Swept%, is the part that goes beyond a
standard session-range tool.
SETTINGS
Grouped for clarity: Timezone; Sessions / Killzones (per-session enable, name, window,
color); Box & Level Visuals (boxes, fills, high/low, equilibrium, labels, history cap);
Session Liquidity & Sweeps (projection, sweep marks, freeze-on-sweep, line style, reversal
window, outcome coloring); New York Midnight Open; Statistics Dashboard (position, size);
and Alerts.
HOW TO USE
- Apply on an intraday timeframe; 1m to 1h work best (5m or 15m for clean session structure).
- Mark your higher-timeframe bias first, then use the killzone windows to time entries.
- When a killzone level is swept, read the outcome color and that session's historical Rev%
to gauge whether a reversal back inside the range is the higher-probability path.
- Use xATR to see which session is statistically the most active on your instrument, and
Bias% for its directional lean.
REPAINTING
Boxes and the live high/low update in real time while the current session is forming - this
is expected real-time behavior, not lookahead. Once a session closes, its levels are fixed;
sweeps are detected on price crossing those fixed levels; and an outcome, once resolved on a
closed bar, does not change. No lookahead is used anywhere in the script.
CONCEPTS AND CREDIT
The concepts used here - killzones, buy-side and sell-side liquidity, liquidity sweeps, the
midnight open, and premium/discount equilibrium - originate with the Inner Circle Trader
(Michael J. Huddleston) and the wider Smart Money Concepts / price-action community, where
they are taught and discussed openly. The session window defaults follow the killzone times
commonly used by that community. All code in this script - the session detection, liquidity
projection, sweep-outcome classification and statistics engine - is written independently and
reuses no third-party code. It is published open-source so anyone can read, verify and modify
it under PulseWire's House Rules.

English Introduction
SMC Market Structure All-in-One Toolkit | FVG + BOS & CHoCH Breakout + Dynamic Defense Level + Ratio Split Line
Core Features
Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Detect standard 3-bar institutional liquidity gaps (bullish & bearish). FVG boxes turn gray once mitigated, with optional shrink function for touched zones. Adjustable max historical FVG count. Not recommended for large gap/jump markets.
SMC Structure Detection (BOS / CHoCH)
Built-in lookback algorithm to identify institutional market structure: BOS (Break of Structure, trend continuation) & CHoCH (Change of Character, trend reversal). Fully customizable line color, style, width, and limited historical breakout markers to avoid chart clutter.
Pending Fake Breakout Dashed Line
Draw temporary pending lines when price tests swing high/low without close breakout. Separate styles for regular trend fakeouts and defense level fakeouts, easily distinguish valid breaks vs liquidity hunts.
Dynamic Trend Defense Level
Auto-switch defense baseline based on current market bias: swing low for uptrend, swing high for downtrend. Temporarily shift defense level to fakeout extreme when liquidity hunt occurs, with thick solid line and text label.
Range Ratio Split Line
Auto calculate user-defined percentage split level (default 50% midpoint) over active market range, compatible with post-fakeout restructured ranges. Optional percentage value label for key order flow support/resistance zones.
Input Groups
Fair Value Gap: Toggle FVG display, color palette, mitigate shrink, max historical boxes
Market Structure: Structure lookback period, BOS/CHoCH line settings, full swing structure outline, pending fake breakout lines
Defense Level: Solid defense line config, toggle & style for defense fakeout dashed lines
Range Ratio Line: Custom split percentage, ratio line appearance, value label switch
Important Notes
Structure lookback bar count is core algorithm parameter, DO NOT modify arbitrarily; wrong value breaks defense level calculation.
This FVG logic only works for standard 3-bar gaps; performance degrades on assets with massive overnight jumps/gaps.
Built-in alert triggers on confirmed breakouts: BOS = trend continuation signal, CHoCH = trend reversal signal.
Full customization of all line width, color transparency, dash/dot/solid styles to match your chart layout preference. Indicator
Liquidity Structure Framework [PakunFX]Liquidity Sequence Framework
Liquidity Sequence Framework (LSF) is a market structure analysis indicator designed to visualize the progression of liquidity events, structure shifts, and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) within a single analytical framework.
Instead of focusing on individual signals, the indicator organizes multiple market events into a sequential process, helping traders observe how price structure develops over time. The script combines swing structure, liquidity sweeps, trend filtering, and Fair Value Gap detection into a unified charting tool.
Features
External and Internal Swing Structure detection
Liquidity Sweep identification (SSL / BSL)
Bullish and Bearish Structure Shift detection
Automatic Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection
EMA-based trend filter
Premium / Discount (Equilibrium) filter
Configurable setup conditions
Visual sequence tracking with alerts
How it Works
The indicator monitors market structure using external and internal swing highs and lows. When liquidity is swept beyond a previous swing level, a new sequence begins. The script then tracks whether price confirms a structure shift and subsequently forms a Fair Value Gap within a configurable sequence window.
Trend filtering can be applied using Fast and Slow EMA conditions, while optional Premium / Discount and Fair Value Gap requirements allow users to customize how potential setups are displayed.
Display Elements
External Swing High / Low
Internal Swing High / Low

Alerts
Alerts are available for:
Liquidity Sweep
Bullish Structure Shift
Bearish Structure Shift
Bullish Sequence Setup
Bearish Sequence Setup
These alerts are intended to notify users when predefined analytical conditions are detected.
Notes
Liquidity Sequence Framework is designed as a market analysis tool. It visualizes structural relationships between liquidity events and price development but does not generate trading recommendations or predict future market direction.

Indicator
Indicator
Advanced Liquidity Sweep [HexaTrades]Advanced Liquidity Sweep is a Smart Money Concepts (SMC) indicator designed to automatically identify liquidity pools, equal highs and lows, liquidity sweeps, and potential reversal areas. Rather than simply detecting wick breaks, it evaluates each sweep using multiple confirmation factors and assigns a strength score, helping traders distinguish between minor stop hunts and higher-quality liquidity events.
The indicator is designed for cryptocurrencies, stocks, forex, futures, commodities, and indices across all timeframes.
What is Liquidity?
Financial markets constantly search for liquidity before making significant moves.
Retail traders often place:
• Stop losses below swing lows
• Stop losses above swing highs
• Breakout orders above resistance
• Breakdown orders below support
These orders accumulate into liquidity pools. Large market participants frequently move prices into these areas to fill large positions before reversing or continuing the trend.
This indicator automatically identifies those liquidity pools and highlights when they are swept.
How it works :
- Map the liquidity.: Confirmed pivot highs become BSL lines, pivot lows become SSL lines. You choose Major and/or Minor swing sizes.
- Cluster equal highs/lows. Several highs (or lows) at nearly the same price form an EQH / EQL cluster, a bigger, juicier liquidity pool that scores higher.
- Detect the sweep (on closed candles only).
• Bearish: price trades above a BSL level but closes back below it.
• Bullish: price trades below an SSL level but closes back above it.
- Score it 0–100. Six factors rate how convincing the rejection was (see below). At/above your Strong threshold, it’s tagged STRONG.
- Draw a sweep zone. Optionally turn each sweep into a supply/demand zone you can watch for re-entry, with optional auto-expiry.
- Filter the noise. Optional Trend, Higher-Timeframe and Filter presets keep only the cleaner grabs.
Features
🔶 Major & Minor Swing Detection
The indicator detects both major and minor swing highs and lows.
Major swings represent stronger institutional liquidity and usually produce higher-quality reactions.
Minor swings identify shorter-term liquidity that is commonly targeted during intraday trading.
Users can monitor:
• Major swings only
• Minor swings only
• Both simultaneously
🔶Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL)
Buy-side liquidity forms above previous swing highs.
These areas usually contain:
• Short stop losses
• Breakout buy orders
• Momentum entries
When price trades above these highs before quickly closing back below, the indicator identifies a bearish liquidity sweep.
🔶 Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL)
Sell-side liquidity forms below previous swing lows.
These areas usually contain:
• Long stop losses
• Panic selling
• Breakdown entries
When price trades below these lows before closing back above, the indicator identifies a bullish liquidity sweep.
🔶 Equal Highs & Equal Lows
Equal highs and equal lows are some of the strongest liquidity pools because many traders place stops at nearly identical price levels.
The indicator automatically detects these structures using:
• ATR-based tolerance
• Percentage-based tolerance
Equal liquidity levels are highlighted separately and tracked independently from normal swing liquidity.
🔶 Zone Colors
Here are the zone and line colors used in this indicator and what each one means:
🔴 Red: Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL)
- Represents swing highs where buy-side liquidity is concentrated.
- Commonly contains short stop-loss orders and breakout buy orders.
- These are active, unswept liquidity levels and potential targets for a bearish liquidity sweep.
🟢 Green: Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL)
- Represents swing lows where sell-side liquidity is concentrated.
- Commonly contains long stop-loss orders and breakdown sell orders.
- These are active, unswept liquidity levels and potential targets for a bullish liquidity sweep.
🟠 Orange: Equal Highs / Equal Lows (EQH / EQL)
- Marks two or more highs or lows formed at nearly the same price.
- These levels are displayed using dashed lines and often contain larger clusters of resting liquidity.
- Sweeps of Equal Highs and Equal Lows typically produce stronger, higher-probability trading opportunities.
⚪ Gray: Swept (Inactive) Liquidity
- Indicates liquidity that has already been swept by price.
- Once a level has been taken, it changes to gray and becomes inactive.
- This helps distinguish spent liquidity from active levels that may still attract future price movement.
Sweep Signal Colors
🟩 Bullish Liquidity Sweep
-Appears when Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) or an Equal Low (EQL) is swept.
-Price trades below the liquidity level but closes back above it, confirming a bullish liquidity sweep.
🟪 Bearish Liquidity Sweep
- Appears when Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) or an Equal High (EQH ) is swept.
- Price trades above the liquidity level but closes back below it, confirming a bearish liquidity sweep.
🔶 Liquidity Sweep Detection
A liquidity sweep occurs when price temporarily breaks a liquidity level but fails to hold beyond it.
For a valid sweep:
Bearish Sweep
• Price trades above Buy-Side Liquidity
• The candle closes back below the level
Bullish Sweep
• Price trades below Sell-Side Liquidity
• The candle closes back above the level
Because the signal is generated only after the candle closes, the indicator does not repaint.
🔶Sweep Strength Score
Every sweep receives a strength score from 0 to 100.
The score combines multiple factors including:
• Wick rejection
• Candle body strength
• Penetration distance beyond liquidity
• Volume confirmation
• Distance from the EMA
• Equal High / Equal Low cluster strength
Higher scores generally indicate stronger liquidity events.
Strength tiers are classified as: Weak, Medium, Strong, and Elite
Users can also define a minimum score to filter out lower-quality sweeps.
🔶 Score Presets
Three scoring profiles are available:
Conservative: Places greater emphasis on clean rejection candles and body structure.
Balanced: Provides an even weighting across all scoring components and is suitable for most trading styles.
Aggressive: Places greater importance on volume and equal liquidity clusters, making it more responsive to institutional activity.
🔶 Trend & Higher Timeframe Filters
The indicator includes optional trend confirmation filters to help improve signal quality.
The Trend Filter uses the EMA 50 and EMA 200 to evaluate the current market direction and offers two modes:
Continuation : Displays only sweeps that align with the prevailing trend.
Reversal : Displays only sweeps that occur against the prevailing trend, helping identify potential market reversals.
For additional confirmation, the Higher Timeframe (HTF) Bias Filter compares price with a higher timeframe EMA. When enabled, sweeps are generated only if they align with the broader market trend, helping reduce false signals and improving overall trade selection.
🔶 Liquidity & Sweep Zones
The indicator provides two complementary ways to visualize liquidity on the chart.
Liquidity Zones highlight swing highs and lows as either horizontal lines, price zones, or both, making it easier to identify areas where liquidity is likely to accumulate. Users can choose between Lines Only, Zones Only, or Both to match their preferred chart style.
When a liquidity sweep occurs, the indicator automatically creates a Sweep Zone around the rejection candle. These zones can be extended into the future, automatically removed after a user-defined period, or kept indefinitely. Sweep zones often serve as potential support or resistance areas, making them useful for identifying future reaction zones, retests, and trade opportunities.
⭐️ Bullish Liquidity Sweep
Price sweeps below the Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL), triggering stop-loss orders before quickly reversing and closing back above the liquidity level. The Sweep Zone acts as a potential support area, while the strength score helps evaluate the quality of the setup. Traders may look for long opportunities on the confirmation or retest, targeting the next Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL).
Example:
⭐️Bearish Liquidity Sweep
Price sweeps above Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL), triggering breakout orders and stop-losses before reversing and closing back below the liquidity level. The Sweep Zone acts as a potential resistance area, while the strength score helps evaluate the quality of the setup. Traders may look for short opportunities on the rejection or retest, targeting the next Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL

Alerts
Built-in alert conditions include:
• Bullish Liquidity Sweep
• Bearish Liquidity Sweep
• Equal High Sweep
• Equal Low Sweep
• Strong Bullish Sweep
• Strong Bearish Sweep
• Next-Candle Confirmed Sweep
• Any Liquidity Sweep
These alerts allow traders to automate notifications without monitoring charts continuously.
How to Use
The Advanced Liquidity Sweep indicator helps identify where liquidity exists, when it has been swept, and how strong the resulting market reaction is. For the best results, combine it with market structure, support and resistance, and proper risk management.
Bullish Setup:
- Wait for price to sweep a Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) level.
- The candle should close back above the liquidity level, confirming a bullish sweep.
- Prefer Medium, Strong, or Elite sweep scores for higher-quality setups.
- Use the Trend Filter or Higher Timeframe Bias Filter for additional confirmation.
- Watch for a retest of the Sweep Zone before considering a long entry.
-Place the stop-loss below the sweep low and target nearby resistance or Buy-Side Liquidity.
Bearish Setup:
- Wait for price to sweep a Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) level.
- The candle should close back below the liquidity level, confirming a bearish sweep.
- Focus on higher-strength sweep scores for better probability.
- Confirm the setup using the Trend or Higher Timeframe filters.
- Look for rejection from the Sweep Zone before entering a short position.
- Place the stop-loss above the sweep high and target nearby support or Sell-Side Liquidity.
Advanced Liquidity Sweep is designed to help traders understand where liquidity exists, identify when it has been taken, and evaluate the quality of each sweep using multiple confirmation factors. Rather than relying on simple wick breaks, it combines liquidity analysis, market structure, trend confirmation, and strength scoring to provide greater context for trading decisions. As with any technical tool, it should be used alongside sound risk management and additional market analysis for the best results.

Indicator
Balanced Price Range + V-Shape IndicatorBalanced Price Range + V-Shape Indicator
Overview
This is an open-source intraday scalping model built on ICT-derived price-action concepts. It combines Balanced Price Ranges and V-shaped liquidity-driven reversals into a single contextual system. The scalping method is specific: it looks for a sharp reversal (a "V") off a zone of overlapping imbalance (a Balanced Price Range), but only when that zone is confirmed by higher-timeframe imbalance or a recent liquidity sweep — the kind of fast, location-specific entry used on 1–15 minute charts. Rather than printing every BPR or inverted gap (which is unusably noisy live), it cross-filters them so only confirmed locations are highlighted. The source is fully open; everything below describes exactly what the code does.
Building block 1 — Fair Value Gaps and inversions
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) is a three-candle imbalance: a gap between candle 1's extreme and candle 3's extreme left unfilled by candle 2. The script detects each FVG as it forms and stores the displacement (middle) candle's open and close for later momentum checks. When price later closes back through a gap, that gap is latched as inverted (an iFVG) — its expected support/resistance role flips.
Building block 2 — Balanced Price Range
A Balanced Price Range is the price overlap between a fresh FVG and an opposite-direction iFVG. When a new FVG forms and overlaps an opposite inverted gap within a configurable lookback window, the overlapping band is drawn as a BPR. A minimum-size filter (as a percentage of 14-period ATR) discards slivers too thin to matter. BPR zones extend rightward until price closes through them or a max-extension bar limit is reached.
Building block 3 — Liquidity mapping and sweeps
The script independently maps liquidity from four sources, each toggleable: swing-pivot highs/lows, equal highs/lows (two same-side swings within an ATR tolerance), previous-day high/low, and London / NY-AM session highs and lows. For each level it distinguishes a sweep (wick through, close back — liquidity grab) from a clean break (close beyond — level reclaimed), marking sweeps on the chart.
The V-Shape gate — how the pieces work together
A BPR is upgraded to a "V-BPR" and an entry arrow only fires when the location passes a context gate with two independent confirmation paths, either of which validates the setup:
HTF FVG tap (continuation path): Fair Value Gaps are read from a higher timeframe (chart TF × a user multiplier, snapped to the nearest standard resolution). The gate checks whether price recently tapped a still-valid HTF gap of matching direction, and whether the BPR sits inside or within an ATR buffer of it.
Liquidity sweep (reversal path): a correct-side sweep — a low taken for a long, a high taken for a short — within a recent bar window.
Two candle-level filters refine the trigger: a clean-V-tip rule (the inversion candle must be preceded by an opposite-direction candle, enforcing a real reversal at the tip) and a strong-close rule (the inverting candle must reclaim a set percentage of the displacement candle's body, confirming momentum). An optional clear-path filter rejects a setup when un-swept opposite-side liquidity rests within an ATR danger zone in the trade's direction, since that pool is often taken first.
Chart Examples:
Settings reference
Settings: max BPRs shown, iFVG lookback window, min BPR size (% ATR), max zone extension.
Higher-TF FVG: show/hide, timeframe multiplier, max stored, colour.
V-Shape Gate & Entry: master gate toggle, HTF-tap window, zone proximity buffer, sweep-path toggle and window, clean-V-tip, clear-path toggle and danger-zone size, hide-non-V-BPR, entry-marker toggle, strong-close percentage.
Liquidity & Sweeps: toggles for swing / PDH-PDL / session / equal-H-L sources, pivot strength, equal tolerance, session windows (NY time), max levels, sweep marking, colours.
Colors: bull/bear BPR, FVG/iFVG components, liquidity, sweep marks.
How to use it
Apply to 1–15 minute charts. Drawn BPRs show overlapping imbalance; thicker V-BPR zones and ▲/▼ markers show locations that passed the gate. Each entry marker's tooltip audits why it fired (which path confirmed it and the reclaim %). Begin with the gate on to see only confirmed scalps; loosen by disabling individual filters, or enable "Hide BPRs that fail the gate" to declutter. Alerts fire on confirmed long and short V-Shape entries.
Non-repainting
All higher-timeframe and previous-day data is requested with offset historical expressions, so no future data is used on historical bars; entries evaluate only on confirmed bar closes and do not repaint. Indicator
Fractal Structure Indicator BOS CHoCH TGFXFractal Market Structure — BOS / CHoCH
OVERVIEW
This tool maps market structure automatically using fractal pivots. It detects swing and internal structure, labels each break as BOS (continuation) or CHoCH (change of character / reversal), tracks the current fractal high and low (FH / FL), highlights the premium and discount zones of the active range, and summarises higher-timeframe structure in a table.
THE CONCEPTS
- Fractal pivots: highs and lows are detected as Williams-style pivots (a high or low with N bars on each side). Two layers are available — swing structure (larger pivots) and internal structure (smaller pivots inside the swings).
- BOS (Break of Structure): price closes beyond the prior structural point in the direction of the trend — a continuation event.
- CHoCH (Change of Character): the first break against the prevailing structure — an early sign of a potential reversal.
- Current FH / FL: the most recent fractal high and low, where liquidity tends to rest.
- Premium / Discount: the active range is split at its 50% equilibrium. Above it is premium (relatively expensive); below it is discount (relatively cheap).
- Multi-timeframe table: shows the structural bias and the zone (premium / discount) of higher timeframes at a glance.
NON-REPAINTING
A fractal is only confirmed once N bars have closed on each side, so a pivot is fixed after confirmation and does not repaint. Structure breaks (BOS / CHoCH) are evaluated on bar close.
SETTINGS
- Swing fractal length and internal fractal length.
- Show / hide internal structure.
- Show current FH / FL lines and labels.
- Show BOS / CHoCH labels.
- Show premium / discount zones.
- Colors, line extension, and the multi-timeframe table (timeframes and position).
HOW TO READ IT
- Green = bullish structure, red = bearish structure.
- BOS suggests trend continuation; CHoCH warns of a possible reversal.
- Price reaching discount within a bullish bias, or premium within a bearish bias, is the classic context many traders use to look for entries in the direction of structure.
NOTES
This script is an original implementation of standard, public price-action concepts (fractal pivots, market structure, BOS / CHoCH, premium / discount, equilibrium). It is a visualization and context tool — it does not generate buy/sell signals and makes no claim about future performance. Best used together with your own analysis and risk management. Indicator
Prior Day Dealing Range [M1D]Frames the previous day's range as an ICT dealing range — high, low, equilibrium, quartiles, and premium/discount extreme zones — with a session-selectable day boundary, sweep mitigation, and a live bias table.
WHAT IT DOES
This indicator plots the prior trading day's range and frames it the way an ICT trader reads a dealing range, rather than as three disconnected lines:
• PDH / PDL — previous day high and low
• PDEQ — equilibrium (the 0.5 midpoint of the prior range)
• 0.25 / 0.75 quartiles — the boundaries that split the range into premium, equilibrium and discount
• Premium & discount extreme zones — the top quartile (0.75→1.0) and bottom quartile (0.0→0.25) shaded as the areas where price most often reacts
All levels and zones share a single left anchor at the day's open, so they read as one stacked range projecting into the current session.
WHY A DEALING RANGE INSTEAD OF JUST PDH/PDL
Equilibrium tells you whether price is trading at a premium (above 0.5) or a discount (below 0.5); the quartile zones mark the extremes where reversions and sweeps tend to cluster. The bias table reduces that to a single read.
SESSION-ANCHORED DAY OPEN
The "day" can be anchored to Exchange (the chart's native daily boundary, works on all timeframes), or to NY Midnight / 8:30 NY / 9:30 NY. The NY options reset the range on the open that matters to your model and are intended for intraday charts (roughly 30m and below); Exchange is the safe default for any timeframe.
MITIGATION
When a confirmed bar sweeps PDH or PDL, that line fades to a dotted "mitigated" style and its label updates. This is sweep awareness only, evaluated on bar close (no intrabar repaint).
BIAS TABLE
Shows the PDEQ price, which zone price currently sits in (Premium / Discount, with an "extreme" flag in a quartile zone), and the exact position of price within the prior range as a percentage.
ALERTS
Cross above / below PDEQ, entry into the premium / discount extreme zone, and PDH / PDL swept.
HOW TO USE
1. Pick your day anchor — Exchange for a standard daily range, or an NY session open if your model resets there.
2. Read bias from PDEQ: above = premium (favor shorts), below = discount (favor longs).
3. Watch the extreme zones and PDH/PDL for sweeps; the mitigation styling flags when a level has been run.
4. Toggle any element (zones, quartiles, labels, table) off in settings to suit your chart.
NOTES / LIMITATIONS
• Levels are confirmed on the close of each day and held for the following session; they do not repaint.
• NY-anchored modes assume the session window aligns to a bar boundary, so they are best on intraday timeframes; on higher timeframes use Exchange.
• This is a contextual / discretionary tool — it marks levels and bias, it does not generate buy/sell signals.
The previous-day high/low/equilibrium calculation is standard; this script's contribution is the combination — a session-selectable day boundary, the full quartile dealing-range framing with premium/discount extreme zones, sweep mitigation, and a range-position bias table in one tool. All code is original and written in Pine Script v6. Indicator
FVG Imbalance Tracker TGFXFVG Imbalance Tracker
OVERVIEW
FVG Imbalance Tracker automatically detects, draws and tracks Fair Value Gaps (FVG), also known as imbalances. It marks each gap as a zone, extends it until price returns, and tells you when the gap has been mitigated (filled). An optional 50% midline (Consequent Encroachment / CE) and a higher-timeframe table give you context at a glance.
WHAT IS A FAIR VALUE GAP
A Fair Value Gap is a three-candle pattern where the first and third candles do not overlap, leaving a price range that was crossed in a single, one-sided move:
- Bullish FVG: the low of candle 3 is above the high of candle 1.
- Bearish FVG: the high of candle 3 is below the low of candle 1.
That untraded range is an imbalance. Price frequently returns to it later to "rebalance" before continuing, which is why these zones are useful as potential reaction areas.
HOW IT WORKS
1. On the close of every third candle, the script checks for a gap between candle 1 and candle 3.
2. If a gap is found (and passes the optional ATR size filter), a zone is drawn from the pattern to the right.
3. Each zone keeps extending until it is mitigated. You choose what mitigation means:
- Full fill: price fully closes the gap.
- 50% (CE): price reaches the midpoint (Consequent Encroachment).
- Touch: price reaches the near edge of the gap.
4. Once mitigated, the zone is dimmed and stops extending (or is removed, if you prefer).
HOW TO READ IT
- Green zones = bullish Fair Value Gaps (potential demand / support areas).
- Red zones = bearish Fair Value Gaps (potential supply / resistance areas).
- Solid, extending zone = still unmitigated.
- Dimmed zone = already mitigated.
- Dotted midline = the 50% (CE) level of the gap.
- Multi-timeframe table: shows the latest imbalance direction on three higher timeframes (Bull / Bear / –) for higher-timeframe context.
SETTINGS
- Detection: optional ATR filter to ignore small gaps, ATR length, minimum gap size (× ATR), and maximum gaps kept per side.
- Mitigation: choose Full fill, 50% (CE) or Touch, and whether mitigated gaps stay dimmed or are removed.
- Visual: colors for bullish/bearish gaps, box transparency, optional border, optional 50% midline, optional labels, label size.
- Multi-timeframe table: enable/disable, the three timeframes, and table position.
REPAINTING
Gaps are confirmed on the close of the third candle, so a zone does not appear and then disappear intrabar.
ALERTS
Three alerts are available: "New bullish FVG", "New bearish FVG" and "FVG mitigated". Add them from the alert dialog and set them to trigger once per bar close.
NOTES
This script is an original implementation of standard, public price-action concepts (Fair Value Gaps and Consequent Encroachment). It is a visualization and context tool — it does not generate buy/sell signals and makes no claim about future performance. Fair Value Gaps work best combined with your own analysis (market structure, liquidity, higher-timeframe context, risk management) rather than used in isolation. Indicator
Liquidity Sweeps EQH EQL TGFXLiquidity Sweeps — EQH / EQL
OVERVIEW
Liquidity Sweeps — EQH / EQL is a price-action tool that highlights resting liquidity on the chart and shows when that liquidity is taken. It automatically detects clusters of equal swing highs (EQH) and equal swing lows (EQL), draws them as liquidity levels, and flags the moment price runs through a level and closes back on the other side — a liquidity sweep (also called a stop run or liquidity grab).
THE IDEA BEHIND IT
Stop orders tend to build up just beyond obvious swing highs and lows. When several swings form at roughly the same price, they create a visible pool of resting orders:
- Equal highs (EQH) sit above price and represent buy-side liquidity (buy stops / breakout buy orders).
- Equal lows (EQL) sit below price and represent sell-side liquidity (sell stops / breakout sell orders).
Price is often drawn toward these pools. A sweep occurs when price spikes through the level to trigger those orders and then closes back inside the range — frequently a sign that the move beyond the level lacked follow-through.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Swings are detected with confirmed Williams pivots (configurable left/right length).
2. When two consecutive pivot highs (or lows) form within an adaptive, ATR-based tolerance, they are treated as "equal" and a liquidity level is drawn at the extreme. The tolerance can also be set as a fixed tick distance.
3. Each level extends to the right until price reaches it.
4. A sweep is confirmed on bar close:
- Bearish sweep: a bar's high trades above an EQH but the bar closes back below it (buy-side liquidity taken).
- Bullish sweep: a bar's low trades below an EQL but the bar closes back above it (sell-side liquidity taken).
The swept level is then dimmed and stops extending, and a "SWEEP" label is placed.
HOW TO READ IT
- Red levels / "EQH" labels = buy-side liquidity resting above price.
- Green levels / "EQL" labels = sell-side liquidity resting below price.
- Solid line = level still intact (liquidity untouched).
- Dotted/dimmed line = level already swept.
- Red "SWEEP" above a candle = buy-side liquidity taken and rejected.
- Green "SWEEP" below a candle = sell-side liquidity taken and reclaimed.
- Multi-timeframe table: shows the most recent sweep direction on three higher timeframes (Bull / Bear / –) for higher-timeframe context at a glance. On each higher timeframe a sweep is measured as breaking the N-bar high/low and closing back inside.
SETTINGS
- Swing detection: pivot left/right bars control how large a swing must be before it counts. Lower = more, smaller swings (more sensitive); higher = fewer, more significant ones.
- Equal levels: tolerance mode (ATR or ticks), ATR length and multiplier, and a tick tolerance. A larger tolerance treats more pivots as "equal".
- Sweeps: show/hide sweep labels, and whether swept levels stay on the chart (dimmed) or are removed.
- Visual: colors for buy-side/sell-side, line width, label size, show/hide level labels.
- Multi-timeframe table: enable/disable, the three timeframes, the higher-timeframe sweep lookback, and the table position.
REPAINTING
Levels are built only from pivots that are already confirmed, so a level never appears and then disappears once drawn (by definition, a pivot is confirmed a number of bars after it forms, equal to the "right bars" setting). Sweeps are evaluated on bar close, so sweep labels and alerts do not change intrabar.
ALERTS
Two alerts are available: "Bullish liquidity sweep" and "Bearish liquidity sweep". Add them from the alert dialog and set them to trigger once per bar close.
NOTES
This script is an original implementation of standard, public price-action concepts (Williams pivots, equal highs/lows, liquidity sweeps). It is a visualization and context tool — it does not generate buy/sell signals and makes no claim about future performance. Sweeps are best combined with your own analysis (market structure, higher-timeframe context, risk management) rather than used in isolation. Indicator
Order Blocks with Volume [Quantum Algo]Order Blocks with Volume
OVERVIEW
This indicator finds order blocks — the candles where a directional move originated before price broke market structure — and measures the buy and sell volume that traded inside each one. Every zone is drawn as a box that extends forward until price returns to it, and each active zone is labelled with its total volume and its buy/sell split, so you can tell at a glance which blocks were built on heavy participation and which were not.
It is built entirely from price and volume on the chart you apply it to. There is no repainting of confirmed zones: detection runs only on closed bars.
HOW DETECTION WORKS
1. Market structure. Confirmed swing highs and swing lows are located using a pivot of configurable length (Swing Length). A larger value isolates more significant structure and produces fewer, larger zones.
2. Break of structure. When a candle closes above the most recent confirmed swing high (bullish) or below the most recent confirmed swing low (bearish), the indicator treats it as a break of structure and looks for the order block that produced the move.
3. The order block candle. Starting from the breakout, the script steps back over the impulse candles and marks the last opposite-close candle before the move began — the last down-close candle for a bullish block, the last up-close candle for a bearish block. This is the origin of the displacement and the level price often revisits.
4. Zone range. The block is drawn from that candle using either its full high-to-low range (Wick) or its open-to-close body (Body).
VOLUME ENGINE
For each order block candle the indicator estimates how much of the traded volume was buying versus selling, using where the candle closed within its own range:
- Buy volume is weighted by how close the candle closed to its high.
- Sell volume is weighted by how close it closed to its low.
This split is shown two ways:
- Buy / Sell volume bars: two horizontal bars anchored at the left of the zone — buy on the top half, sell on the bottom half — with lengths proportional to each side. The Volume Bar Length setting controls how long they can extend (they are automatically kept inside the zone).
- Volume label: written inside the zone on the right edge, showing the total volume of the block and the buy% / sell% balance.
Volume strength is the block's volume divided by the average volume over a configurable baseline (Volume Baseline Length). It is used by the optional filter below to keep only the heaviest blocks.
ZONE LIFECYCLE
- Active. A live zone extends to the current bar and shows its volume bars and label.
- Mitigation. When price first trades back into a zone, the 50% line marks the equilibrium and an alert can fire.
- Invalidation. A zone is invalidated when price moves through its far edge. The source can be a wick touch or a candle close (Invalidation Source).
- Breaker. If "Flip Broken Zones to Breaker Blocks" is on, an invalidated zone is kept and re-coloured as a breaker, since broken support can act as resistance and vice versa.
- Historic. If "Keep Invalidated Zones (Historic)" is on, finished zones are frozen at the bar they died, re-coloured neutral, and their volume bars and text are removed to keep the chart clean.
- If neither option is on, invalidated zones are removed.
To avoid clutter the indicator will not stack a new zone on top of an existing active zone in the same area, limits the number of active zones per side, and automatically drops any zone older than the drawing range.
ON-CHART ELEMENTS
- Coloured boxes: bullish and bearish order blocks (and a neutral colour for breaker/historic).
- Two inner bars per active zone: buy (top) and sell (bottom) volume.
- A dotted line through the middle of active zones: the 50% mitigation / equilibrium level.
- Text inside active zones: total volume and buy% / sell%.
SETTINGS
Structure & Detection
- Swing Length — pivot length used to define structure. Higher = larger, more significant zones.
- Impulse Lookback (bars) — how far back to search for the origin candle after a break of structure.
- Zone Range — Wick (full range) or Body (open-to-close).
- Max Active Zones / Side — cap on simultaneously active zones per direction.
Invalidation
- Invalidation Source — Wick (a high/low piercing the zone) or Close (a candle closing beyond it).
- Flip Broken Zones to Breaker Blocks — keep and re-colour broken zones as breakers.
- Keep Invalidated Zones (Historic) — freeze finished zones instead of deleting them.
Volume Engine
- Show Volume Label — write volume and buy/sell% inside active zones.
- Show Buy / Sell Volume Bars — draw the proportional buy/sell bars.
- Volume Baseline Length — averaging length used to rate volume strength.
- Volume Bar Length (bars) — maximum length of the buy/sell bars.
Filters
- Only Show High-Volume Zones — hide blocks below the strength threshold.
- Min Volume Strength (x avg) — threshold as a multiple of average volume.
- Filter Oversized Zones — skip blocks taller than the ATR limit.
- Max Zone Height (ATR x) — the height limit, in multiples of ATR.
Style
- Bullish Zone, Bearish Zone, Buy Volume, Sell Volume, Breaker / Historic, Text — colours.
- Zone Extension (bars) — how far active zones project past the current bar.
- Show 50% Mitigation Line — toggle the equilibrium line.
ALERTS
Alerts are raised through the alert() function for two events: an order block being tapped (mitigation) and an order block being broken (breaker formed). To use them, create an alert on the indicator and choose the "Any alert() function call" condition.
HOW TO USE
Order blocks mark areas where significant orders were likely placed. Traders commonly watch for price to return to an un-mitigated block and react there, and use the buy/sell volume split and strength to judge how meaningful a block is — a block built on high, one-sided volume is generally treated as more significant than a thin one. Combine the zones with your own confirmation and risk management; this tool highlights levels, it does not generate buy or sell signals.
DISCLAIMER
Nothing here is financial advice or a guarantee of any outcome. Past behaviour of price around order blocks does not predict future results. Always do your own research and manage risk. Indicator
SICK MODE [erdensedat]Welcome to SICK MODE, the most comprehensive all-in-one Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Liquidity tracking suite designed for serious traders. This indicator eliminates chart clutter by unifying the most powerful institutional trading concepts into one highly customizable and dynamic script.
Whether you are a day trader, scalper, or swing trader, SICK MODE continuously scans the market to provide you with actionable setups, dynamic bias shifts, and high-probability points of interest (POIs).
Here is a complete breakdown of everything SICK MODE offers and how it helps you build a solid trading setup:
🔥 Core Features & Setup Generators
1. Dual-Layer Market Structure (BOS & CHoCH)
What it is: SICK MODE tracks both Internal (minor) and External (major) Market Structure simultaneously.
How it helps: It automatically labels Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH). Internal structure (dashed lines) helps you find early entries, while external structure (solid thick lines) keeps you aligned with the higher timeframe macro trend. It also identifies Strong and Weak swing highs and lows, so you know which levels are likely to hold or be swept.
2. Advanced Liquidity Engine (BSL, SSL, IDM & Turtle Soup)
What it is: Identifies Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL), Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL), and Inducement (IDM) levels.
How it helps: Instead of cluttering your chart with endless lines, it keeps only the most relevant (default 3) liquidity levels. When a level is swept and price reverses, it signals a Turtle Soup (X / TS) entry, giving you a high-probability reversal setup.
3. Next-Gen Fair Value Gap (FVG) & Raid Engine
What it is: A highly advanced FVG detection system that completely removes overlapping noise.
How it helps: It plots precise bullish and bearish imbalances, with options to show mid-lines and extend mitigated gaps. The best part? The Display Raids feature automatically detects when an FVG is pierced (raided) to trigger a quick scalp reversal, printing a precise "x" marker.
4. Institutional Order Blocks & Rejection Blocks
What it is: Detects highly specific Order Blocks (OB) and Rejection Blocks (RB/Wick Blocks).
How it helps: When price mitigates an Order Block, it automatically shifts to a Breaker Block (BB) or Mitigated Block (MB), changing color to let you know the liquidity has been transferred. It actively looks for retests, giving you sniper entry zones.
5. SMT Divergence (Smart Money Tool)
What it is: Automatically compares the current asset with a correlated ticker (e.g., comparing NQ with ES).
How it helps: If the current asset makes a Higher High but the correlated asset makes a Lower High, SICK MODE draws an SMT Divergence line. This is a massive institutional footprint indicating underlying weakness or strength before a reversal.
6. Automated Support & Resistance Engine
What it is: A dynamic S/R system that counts multiple touches on a specific price level.
How it helps: The more price touches a level, the thicker the S/R line becomes. If the level is broken with conviction, the line is removed. Perfect for spotting retail liquidity buildups.
7. Sessions, Killzones & Daily Open
What it is: Highlights Asia, London, and NY Killzones, plus the essential New York Midnight Open line.
How it helps: It tracks unbroken Session Highs and Lows for up to a user-defined amount of days. The dashboard will automatically calculate the distance and show you the "Next Session Target", acting as a magnet for your Take Profits.
8. Advanced Live Dashboard
What it is: A sleek, non-intrusive HUD panel.
How it helps: Instantly gives you the ultimate top-down view:
Current Bias & HTF Bias: (Bullish / Bearish / Neutral)
Active Session: Tells you what session you are in or waiting for.
Next Target: The closest unmitigated session high/low.
Last Action: Prints the exact last institutional event (e.g., "Bullish Sweep/TS", "Bearish FVG Created").
Setup Info: Gives you a direct instruction (e.g., "Look for lows to take LONG").

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.
