SMC Liquidity Sweep Swing High/Low [JPT]🔷 OVERVIEW
Liquidity Sweep Reversal Engine is a price-action indicator designed to identify potential reversal setups after price sweeps confirmed swing highs or swing lows and rejects the liquidity level.
The indicator combines swing structure, liquidity sweep detection, rejection candles, trend confirmation, displacement, and optional volume analysis to filter potential LONG and SHORT setups.
After a confirmed signal, the indicator automatically provides a trade plan with:
• Entry level
• Stop Loss
• TP1 / TP2 / TP3
• Risk-Reward levels
• Signal score
🔷 CONCEPTS
Liquidity Sweep Detection
The indicator tracks confirmed swing highs and lows as potential liquidity areas.
• Buy-side liquidity sweep → price takes a previous swing high and rejects below it → SHORT bias.
• Sell-side liquidity sweep → price takes a previous swing low and rejects above it → LONG bias.
Rejection Confirmation
A sweep can be filtered using:
• Close back through the liquidity level
• Rejection wick
• Minimum wick percentage
• Candle direction
Trend Confirmation
An optional EMA filter helps align signals with the current market direction.
Displacement
The indicator can require a minimum candle-body size relative to ATR to help filter weak price movements.
Volume Filter
Optional relative-volume confirmation can be enabled to identify sweeps occurring with increased market participation.

6. Alerts
• LONG signal
• SHORT signal
• TP1 / TP2 / TP3
• Stop Loss
🔷 APPLICATIONS
1. Liquidity Sweep Reversals
Identify potential reversal opportunities after price takes liquidity above a swing high or below a swing low.
2. Market Structure Mapping
Use confirmed swing levels to visualize important liquidity areas and potential reaction zones.
3. Signal Filtering
The optional trend, displacement, volume, and score filters can help reduce weaker setups.
4. Trade Planning
The built-in Entry, Stop Loss, and multiple Take Profit levels provide a structured framework for evaluating trades.
🔷 NOTES
• Lower pivot settings generate more signals and may produce more noise.
• Higher pivot settings identify larger structural liquidity levels.
• Liquidity sweeps do not guarantee reversals.
• Signal confirmation occurs on the closed candle.
• Always evaluate signals within the broader market structure and apply appropriate risk management. Indicator

Entry Logic
BUY Setup
Sell-Side Liquidity Sweep
→ Bullish Reclaim
→ Strong Bullish Candle
→ Trend Confirmation
→ REAPER BUY
SELL Setup
Buy-Side Liquidity Sweep
→ Bearish Reclaim
→ Strong Bearish Candle
→ Trend Confirmation
→ REAPER SELL
Automatic Targets
Once a valid setup appears, the indicator automatically calculates:
ENTRY → SL → TP1 → TP2 → TP3
The default target structure is based on risk/reward, with adjustable levels according to your trading style and market conditions.
Best Use
Liquidity Reaper can be used on Forex, Gold, Silver, Crypto and other liquid markets.
For cleaner setups, combine the signals with your own market structure and higher-timeframe analysis rather than treating every signal as a guaranteed trade.
Liquidity Reaper doesn't chase price.
It waits for liquidity to be taken — then looks for confirmation.
Built for traders who want a cleaner and more structured approach to liquidity-based entries.
Liquidity Reaper Entry + Auto Targets Indicator
Liquidity Reaper [JOAT]Tracks resting liquidity at swing extremes and signals the reversal when that liquidity is raided and rejected.
◆ WHAT IT IS
Price frequently pushes just beyond an obvious swing high or low — running the stops resting there — and then snaps back. Liquidity Reaper is built to detect that specific sequence: a sweep of a liquidity pool followed by a confirmed rejection , with volume backing the move. Each confirmed raid produces a reversal signal and a complete trade framework.
This is 100% original code, written from scratch. It does not copy or repackage any other author's work.
◆ HOW IT WORKS
1. Liquidity pools. Confirmed swing highs and lows (using your chosen strength) are stored as live liquidity rails — the price levels where stop orders tend to cluster. Unswept rails stay drawn on the chart; the oldest are recycled so the chart never clutters.
2. The raid. When price trades through a pool intrabar, a pending sweep opens on that side and the rail is terminated at the raid bar.
3. Confirmation. The raid only becomes a signal if, within a set confirmation window, price closes back inside the level in the opposite direction. Two extra filters keep the signal honest:
• Rejection wick — the sweep must reject with a wick of at least a configurable percentage of the candle's range, filtering shallow pokes
• Volume expansion — the raid must occur on above-average volume, so passive drifts are ignored
4. The zone. Each confirmed raid paints a swept zone across the raided range (pool level to wick extreme) — a reference area price often reacts to again.
◆ WHAT YOU SEE
• Liquidity rails at unswept swing highs (upside liquidity) and lows (downside liquidity)
• RAID BUY / RAID SELL labels showing the relative volume of the raid
• Painted swept zones on every confirmed raid
• A full TP/SL framework — entry, stop, TP1–TP3, risk/reward fills — that self-closes on a stop or final target
• A resizable dashboard reporting live pool counts each side, the nearest pool above and below with its ATR distance, pending-sweep status, raid history, and open position
◆ HOW TO USE IT
• The rails show where liquidity rests — natural draw-on-liquidity targets and reaction levels even before any signal.
• A RAID signal marks a completed sweep-and-reject; treat it as a potential reversal from that extreme.
• Swept zones are useful for re-entries and for placing stops beyond the wick.
• Works on all symbols and timeframes. Increase swing strength and the wick filter for major structure only; loosen them for active intraday sweeps.
◆ NOTES & LIMITATIONS
Use on standard candlestick charts . Sweep detection needs a genuine volume feed for the volume filter to be meaningful (disable it on symbols without volume). Signals are decision-support only — they are not financial advice and cannot guarantee a reversal will follow. Always apply your own risk management.

Smart Money Toolkit Pro [JPT]🔷 OVERVIEW
Smart Money Toolkit Pro is an original Pine Script® v6 indicator that combines multiple Smart Money Concepts (SMC) into one clean and powerful trading tool. It automatically detects market structure, Break of Structure (BOS), Change of Character (CHoCH), liquidity levels, liquidity sweeps, and dynamic support/resistance to help traders analyze price action with confidence.
Designed for Forex, Gold (XAUUSD), Crypto, Stocks, Indices, and Futures, the indicator provides a clear visual representation of institutional market behavior without requiring manual chart drawing.
🔷 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator continuously scans price using confirmed pivot highs and lows.
Market Structure
The script automatically identifies:
• Higher High (HH)
• Higher Low (HL)
• Lower High (LH)
• Lower Low (LL)
These labels help traders understand whether the market is trending, ranging, or reversing.
Break of Structure (BOS)
A BOS is generated when price closes beyond a previous confirmed swing in the direction of the current trend.
Bullish BOS
Price breaks above a previous Swing High.
Bearish BOS
Price breaks below a previous Swing Low.
Change of Character (CHoCH)
A CHoCH signals a potential shift in market direction.
Bullish CHoCH
Price breaks above the previous Lower High.
Bearish CHoCH
Price breaks below the previous Higher Low.
This helps traders recognize possible trend reversals early.
Liquidity Engine
The built-in liquidity engine automatically plots:
• Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL)
• Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL)
• Equal Highs (EQH)
• Equal Lows (EQL)
The indicator monitors these areas for liquidity grabs and sweep events commonly associated with institutional trading activity.
Liquidity Sweeps

Strong Gold H4 Pressure Zones | ProjectSyndicateStrong Gold H4 Pressure Zones
Strong Gold H4 Pressure Zones maps the gold trading day the way it actually moves — split into its true H4 rhythm — and reads three institutional layers on every candle slot: which parts of the session run hot, where the previous candle's wick left unfinished business, and where price gapped away from value. It is built to run on the M5 timeframe — M5 is the execution resolution the whole engine is calibrated to, while it thinks in H4, so you see the higher-timeframe structure forming live on your chart. Load it on an M5 XAUUSD chart for correct slot alignment and zone behaviour.
Most session tools just draw a box around the day. This one grades every H4 slot, projects the pressure the last candle built, and marks the gaps — all anchored to the daily candle open, identical for every trader on the planet.
🕐 True Gold-Day Slot Engine — the core. The gold day (≈23h with its 1-hour technical break) is sliced into six real periods: an H3 opening block, then five H4 candles — aligned to the actual 04:00 / 08:00 / 12:00 / 16:00 / 20:00 boundaries, not a naïve 4-hour count. Every slot is drawn as a shaded box built live from that slot's own high/low, anchored to the daily candle's open so the zones are the same in Miami, Dubai or Singapore regardless of chart timezone.
⏱️ Runs on M5 — by design. This indicator is meant to be applied on the M5 timeframe. The six H4 slots are built up tick by tick from M5 candles, and the pressure, volatility and FVG zones are all calibrated to that resolution. Apply it to an M5 chart — other timeframes will not slice the gold day correctly.
📊 20% Increment Grid — read position at a glance. Each slot box is split by horizontal guides at 0 / 20 / 40 / 60 / 80 / 100% of its range, labelled on the right. Instantly see whether price is pressing the extremes of the current H4 or coiling in the middle — the exact levels institutions lean on within a candle.
🌋 30-Day Session Volatility Profile — the rhythm read. This is not the current candle's volatility. Each of the six slots is averaged over the last 30 days and the six averages are ranked against each other 0–10, printing a fixed grade on every slot — CALM, MODERATE, HIGH, EXTREME. You learn which H4 windows of the gold session typically explode and which drift, so you size and time around the day's real character instead of guessing. The rank is static and colour-graded (calm teal → extreme purple), only drifting slowly as the rolling window updates.
🧲 Prior-Candle Pressure Zones — the wick memory. The heart of the tool. The moment a slot closes, it's read as a single composite H4 candle and its dominant wick is projected forward as a fixed pressure band inside the next slot:
A strong upper wick on the prior candle → SELL PRESSURE zone near the top (rejection from above — supply left overhead).
A strong lower wick on the prior candle → BUY PRESSURE zone near the bottom (rejection from below — demand left beneath).
Each band is graded 0–10 on wick dominance and printed with its score (▲ BUY PRESSURE 8.4/10 · ▼ SELL PRESSURE 7.2/10), opacity scaling with strength. These are fixed the instant the prior candle closes — they never repaint.
🔀 Prior-Slot Fair Value Gap — the imbalance carry-over. A true three-candle FVG detected on the H4 slots themselves (the slots are the candles), projected as a clean Fair Value Gap zone into the current slot, normalized to one uniform ATR-based height so no single gap swallows the chart. An optional gap-size filter keeps the noise out. You see the imbalance the last three candles left, drawn where it matters, without the clutter.
🎨 Fully Themed & Configurable. Volatility-graded box tones, custom buy/sell pressure and FVG colours, neutral increment grid, adjustable opacities, 2× increment and rank label sizing, per-module toggles, configurable opening-block / break / slot hours, volatility lookback, wick thresholds, FVG ATR length / extend / height, and sessions-to-plot depth.
🔒 Honest, Fixed-Zone Core. The live slot box repaints in price as the candle forms — inherent to showing a real-time H4 building on M5, not a defect. But every fixed output — the pressure bands, the FVG, the volatility rank — is locked to the prior completed candle and never redraws to flatter the chart. The 0–10 scores are descriptive ranking frameworks for directing attention, not backtested signals.
🚀 Built for XAUUSD on the M5 timeframe — the slot model matches gold's 23-hour day and 1-hour break out of the box. Use it on an M5 gold chart (adjust the hour inputs for other instruments).
🎯 How To Trade It — Pressure From The Prior H4
⏱️ Load the indicator on an M5 XAUUSD chart before anything else — the entire slot model is built for M5.
Everything hinges on one read: the last H4 candle told you where price got rejected — trade the current candle expecting that pressure to hold, or break with conviction when it fails.
◾ 1) Fade into a prior-candle pressure zone (the core thesis)
Use when the previous H4 left a strong wick and the current slot rotates back into that band.
▪️ The prior candle prints a strong lower wick → a graded BUY PRESSURE zone sits in the lower portion of the current slot. Buyers already defended there once. ▪️ Wait for price to rotate down into that band inside the current slot — ideally near the 0–20% increment level. ▪️ Entry: long as price reacts inside the buy-pressure zone; the higher the score (7+), the more the prior candle insisted on that level. ▪️ Stop: below the zone — if price closes through and accepts beneath it, the demand failed; stand aside. ▪️ Target: the mid-grid (50%) first, the opposite edge / prior-candle high on extension.
The mirror applies for a strong upper wick → SELL PRESSURE zone up top: fade rallies into it, stop above, target back down through the grid.
◾ 2) Weight it with the session profile
▪️ A pressure zone landing in a HIGH / EXTREME volatility slot means the reaction can be violent — expect follow-through and give the target room. ▪️ The same zone in a CALM slot means muted rotation — take the mid-grid and don't overstay. ▪️ The volatility rank tells you how hard the day's structure usually moves in that window before you commit.
◾ 3) Read the FVG as the pull
▪️ An unfilled Fair Value Gap projected into the current slot is where price is imbalanced — it often gets revisited. A buy-pressure zone below an open bullish FVG is confluence: rejection level plus imbalance both pointing up. ▪️ When a pressure zone and the FVG point opposite ways, that's conflict — let the slot resolve before committing.
◾ 4) Stand down — the map says wait
▪️ Prior candle closed as a clean body with no dominant wick → no pressure zone drew → no edge from rejection this slot. ▪️ Price already accepted through the pressure band → the level's spent. ▪️ CALM slot with no FVG and price mid-range → nothing worth risking on; let it develop.
Rule of thumb: ⭐ Strong prior-candle wick + price rotating into that graded pressure zone + a HIGH-volatility slot or aligned FVG → trade the rejection with the pull. ⭐ No wick, consumed zone, or dead CALM mid-range → stand down until the next candle sets the map.
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: Strong Gold H4 Pressure Zones is a structure-mapping tool designed for the M5 timeframe on XAUUSD. Pressure zones are projected from the prior H4 candle's wick geometry, the volatility rank is a 30-day per-slot average, and FVGs are drawn from three-candle gap logic — a model of behaviour, not exchange order-book data. The 0–10 scores are descriptive ranking frameworks for directing attention — NOT backtested signals and NOT standalone trade triggers. Fading into prior-candle pressure still carries real risk of failed levels and stop-outs. Always combine it with your own strategy, price-action analysis and risk management. Past behaviour does not guarantee future results. Indicator
Strong MTF Liquidity Matrix | ProjectSyndicateStrong MTF Liquidity Matrix
Strong MTF Liquidity Matrix puts four higher-timeframe charts on one screen and reads the same institutional map on every one of them — order blocks, fair value gaps, and resting liquidity — then ranks each zone by strength so you know which level actually matters. It's a command deck: your main chart stays clean while four live mini-panels track the structure above you, and the liquidity pools that price is really hunting sit directly on your candles.
Most multi-timeframe tools make you flip between charts. This one stops the flipping.
🔲 Four-Panel MTF Engine — the core. Four independent mini-charts render right on your pane — M30 · H1 · H2 · H4 by default, each one fully configurable to any timeframe (drop to seconds or push to Daily). Every panel fetches its own higher-timeframe candles, keyed on the HTF bar's own time, so the zones are invariant to your master chart timeframe — switch your main chart from M30 to H1 to D1 and the panels don't move. The last candle in each panel tracks the live, forming HTF bar tick by tick.
🟩 Order Block Detection — real ICT logic, per timeframe. Each panel runs a swing-pivot + displacement scan: the last opposing candle before an impulsive move that clears your displacement multiple becomes the order block. Bull OBs from swing-low reversals, bear OBs from swing-high reversals — detected natively on every one of the four timeframes at once.
🟥 Fair Value Gap Detection — the imbalance map. True three-candle FVGs on each timeframe, with an optional ATR gap filter so only gaps worth trading survive. Bullish and bearish gaps rendered in the original green/red palette, distinct from the order blocks, on all four panels simultaneously.
🧲 Universal Zone Height — the accuracy differentiator. Raw OB/FVG zones come in wildly different sizes and clutter the read. Every zone is normalized to one clean height — ATR-based or a fixed percentage of price — so the panels stay legible and every zone carries equal visual weight. Fair value framed; noise removed.
🔢 0–10 Strength Ranking — the power-ranking. Every zone earns a live grade, printed inside the shaded box (OB 8.5, FVG 6.0). Order blocks score on displacement force, zone height and age; fair value gaps score on gap size versus ATR. Set a minimum strength floor and the weak zones simply don't draw — only the levels that earned attention survive.
🌊 Liquidity Heatmap — resting pools on your main chart. Buy-side and sell-side liquidity, seeded from fractal swing highs and lows across two pivot passes, drawn as heat-weighted boxes whose opacity scales with liquidity weight (volume × range). Strong pools glow, weak ones stay faint. When price trades through a pool it's consumed — the zone freezes and fades to show exactly what's already been taken. Colours locked 100% to the OB/FVG palette: buy-side green, sell-side red.
🏷️ Clean Liquidity Labels — above the zone, never in the way. Each resting pool is tagged with its side (BSL/SSL), price, weight and distance from current price — anchored above the zone at its left edge so labels never overlap the fills and never protrude past the level. Read the map without the mess.
🧹 Clean-Chart Discipline — dashboard off by default. No stat panel competing with price. The liquidity dashboard exists — nearest SSL/BSL, hottest level, pool counts, consumed tally — but it's switched off out of the box. Turn it on only if you want it.
🎨 Fully Themed & Configurable. Neutral-gray candles that let the coloured zones pop, custom OB/FVG/liquidity colours, panel size and spacing, right-offset from live price, 2× timeframe labels, per-panel OB/FVG toggles, adjustable swing length, displacement, mitigation type (Touch / Full Fill / 50% Fill), gap filter, zone-height method, strength floor, pivot lengths, heat contrast, pool extension and cap.
🔒 Honest, Non-Repainting Core. Panel history is built from confirmed higher-timeframe bars only; the live forming candle refreshes as it builds — inherent to showing a real-time HTF candle, not a defect — while every closed bar is fixed. Liquidity pools consume on confirmed interaction and don't un-consume to flatter the chart. The 0–10 strength score is a descriptive ranking framework for directing attention, not a backtested edge.
🔔 Native Alerts — new sell-side pool and new buy-side pool formation.
🎯 Why this is different. MTF tools make you tab between charts and reconcile the structure in your head. Profile tools show you liquidity and leave the map disconnected from your entries. Strong MTF Liquidity Matrix holds all four higher timeframes in view at once, marks the order blocks and fair value gaps on every one of them, grades each so you know which to trust, and lays the liquidity price is actually hunting directly on your candles — so you read where structure sits, how strong it is, and where price is being pulled, at a glance.
🚀 Apply to Gold (XAUUSD), Silver, Forex, Crypto, Indices and Futures on any timeframe (liquidity heat requires a volume-bearing symbol).
💡 Cleanest setup: give the four panels room — nudge Right Offset and the panels sit clear of live price to the right, while liquidity zones map onto the candles on the left.
🎯 How To Trade It — Two Approaches
Everything hinges on one read the Matrix gives you at a glance: is higher-timeframe structure lining up, and is price being pulled toward unfilled liquidity?
◾ 1) Trade into confluence toward liquidity (the core thesis)
Use when a high-strength zone on a higher panel lines up with a resting liquidity pool in the same direction.
▪️ Scan the four panels for a strong OB or FVG (7+) on H1/H2/H4 sitting where price is heading.
▪️ Confirm a naked liquidity pool (BSL below / SSL above) as the magnet — the untested pools are where price is drawn.
▪️ Entry: as price reaches the higher-timeframe zone, in the direction of the unfilled liquidity beyond it.
▪️ Stop: beyond the zone; if price closes through and accepts, the level failed — stand aside.
▪️ Target: the nearest resting pool in your direction; the opposite-side pool if the move extends.
⚖️ The cleanest version: H1 and H2 panels both print a strong bull OB at the same area, a fat buy-side pool sits just below unconsumed, and the M30 panel shows price rotating down into it. Structure, strength and liquidity all point the same way. That confluence is the exact setup this tool was built to frame.
◾ 2) Stand down — the map says wait
The Matrix also tells you when there's nothing to do.
▪️ Panels disagree — a bull OB on H1 against a bear FVG on H4 is conflict, not confluence. Wait for alignment.
▪️ Liquidity already consumed on your side — the magnet's gone; the pull is spent.
▪️ No strong zone in range — low scores everywhere means no level worth risking on. Let it develop.
Rule of thumb: ⭐ Aligned high-strength zones + an unfilled pool in the same direction → trade into the confluence toward the liquidity. ⭐ Conflicting panels, consumed pools, or weak scores → stand down until the map agrees.
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: Strong MTF Liquidity Matrix is a structure-and-liquidity mapping tool. Order blocks, fair value gaps and liquidity pools are drawn from swing-pivot and gap logic — a model of institutional behaviour, not exchange order-book data. Liquidity weight is inferred from volume × range and requires a volume-bearing symbol. The 0–10 strength score is a descriptive ranking framework for directing attention — NOT a backtested signal and NOT a standalone trade trigger. Trading into higher-timeframe structure still carries real risk of failed levels and stop-outs. Always combine it with your own strategy, price-action analysis and risk management. Past behaviour does not guarantee future results. Indicator
Indicator
ICT Sniper BY DAVIDThe ICT Sniper (Clean Version) is a systematic Pine Script v6 indicator designed for traders using Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Price Action models. Based on mechanical entry models, this tool identifies institutional market manipulations and precise entry zones by combining Liquidity Sweeps with Fair Value Gaps (FVG).
Instead of cluttering the chart with endless technical indicators, this script operates on market structure and liquidity dynamics. It isolates low-risk, high-probability execution points by waiting for institutional smart money to sweep liquidity before confirming an entry via market imbalance.
Core Strategy and Logical Framework
The indicator executes a mechanical three-phase validation sequence:
1. Liquidity Sweep Detection
Market makers frequently run price beyond key swing points to activate retail stop-loss orders and breakout entries. This script continuously monitors market structure using pivot points:
Bullish Sweep: Price breaks below a recent Pivot Low to grab sell-side liquidity, but the bar closes back above that low, confirming a stop run rather than a legitimate breakout.
Bearish Sweep: Price breaks above a recent Pivot High to grab buy-side liquidity, but the bar closes back below that high, confirming a false breakout.
2. Order Block Marking
When a sweep occurs, the script flags the specific candle or range where the liquidity sweep originated as an active Order Block zone, anticipating that institutional orders remain resting within this area.
3. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Refinement and Signal Trigger
A liquidity sweep alone is insufficient for an entry. The strategy requires displacement—rapid price movement leaving behind an imbalance (FVG).
The indicator tracks the bars following a sweep up to a user-defined lookback window (default: 10 bars).
If a three-candle imbalance forms within this lookback window:
Bullish FVG (Low of candle 1 > High of candle 3): Triggers a BUY Entry signal.
Bearish FVG (High of candle 1 < Low of candle 3): Triggers a SELL Entry signal.
Detailed Input Parameters
Market Structure
Pivot Lookback Length (Default: 5): Determines the sensitivity of swing highs and lows. A smaller number identifies short-term internal liquidity, while a larger number focuses on major swing points.
Strategy Rules
Max Bars After Sweep to Find FVG (Default: 10): Specifies the maximum duration allowed between the liquidity sweep and the displacement/FVG formation. If an FVG forms after this limit, the signal is discarded to ensure only fresh displacement is traded.
Clean Visuals
Show Minor Sweep Shapes (Default: Off): Displays minor directional indicators on every sweep candle. Kept disabled by default to maintain chart clarity.
Show Active Order Blocks (Default: On): Draws shaded boxes around active Order Blocks resulting from liquidity sweeps.
Show FVG Highlights (Default: On): Plots distinct colored boxes directly over the Fair Value Gaps that triggered entry signals.
Max Boxes to Keep on Chart (Default: 2): Automatically deletes older historical boxes to prevent memory lag and visual clutter.
Execution and Risk Management Guidelines
1. Signal Confirmation
Wait for the current bar to close when a BUY or SELL signal appears. Do not execute mid-bar, as FVGs require candle completion to be valid.
2. Stop-Loss Placement
BUY Setup: Position the Stop-Loss a few ticks below the Liquidity Sweep Low or beneath the bottom boundary of the FVG box.
SELL Setup: Position the Stop-Loss a few ticks above the Liquidity Sweep High or above the top boundary of the FVG box.
3. Take-Profit Targets
Fixed Risk-to-Reward: Maintain a standard 1:2 Risk-to-Reward ratio (2R) for consistent expectancy.
Structural Targets: Target the opposing Swing High for long positions or Swing Low for short positions.
Best Practices and Context
While this indicator automates pattern recognition, trade performance improves significantly when aligning signals with higher-timeframe context:
Trade in the direction of the higher-timeframe trend.
Focus executions during major market sessions (London and New York sessions).
Recommended Timeframes: 1-minute to 15-minute charts for intraday execution; 1-hour to 4-hour charts for swing trading.
Recommended Assets: Forex major pairs, equity indices (NAS100, US30), commodities (Gold), and major cryptocurrencies. Indicator
Asian Range Liquidity Sweep - Kill Zone ReversalASIAN RANGE LIQUIDITY SWEEP — the complete ICT Asian Range liquidity model in one indicator
The Asia session builds a small, quiet range. London opens, runs the stops sitting above or below that range, and then walks the price the other way. That single move is one of the most repeatable things in FX, and this indicator is the full rule set for it: the range, the liquidity raid, the higher-timeframe point of interest that makes the raid tradeable, the entry, the stop, the targets — and, just as important, the days on which the raid will NOT happen.
Everything is drawn in New York time, the way the model is defined.
━━━ WHAT IT DOES ━━━
① ASIAN RANGE (20:00 – 00:00 New York)
A time based range, not a structural one. The box, its high, its low and its 50 % are projected forward into the whole trading day. The high is buy side liquidity, the low is sell side liquidity. Direction is mechanical and never inverts: above the range this model only sells, below the range it only buys.
② HIGHER TIMEFRAME POI ENGINE — the filter that decides everything
A raid of the Asian high on its own is, most of the time, a trap. The raid only becomes high probability when it lands inside a higher-timeframe point of interest. The indicator scans three timeframes at once (15m / 1h / 4h by default) for
· Fair Value Gaps
· Order Blocks
· Breaker Blocks (a demand block that price closed through and that now acts as resistance)
· Inverse Fair Value Gaps (a bullish gap that got closed through and flipped bearish)
Every zone is anchored to the exact candles that built it, is extended while it is alive, and is dropped once it is used up or once it sits too far from the daily range to matter. On top of that, the higher-timeframe structure itself has to agree: bearish structure for shorts, bullish for longs.
③ LONDON KILL ZONE (02:00 – 05:00, optional 01:30 start) — Trade 1
Between those hours the indicator waits for price to raid the Asian high (or low) INTO one of those zones. A raid is not even accepted as valid until price has traded back into a fair value gap. Then it waits for a lower-timeframe confirmation and enters at a point of interest — never at market:
· MSS + FVG — market structure shift, entry on the retracement into the gap
· CISD — change in state of delivery, entry back at the CISD level itself
· FVG tap — proximal edge on small gaps, 50 % on big ones
· HIDDEN ORDER BLOCK — the opposite-colour candle trapped between two same-direction fair value gaps. The block almost nobody marks, and the sharpest entry in the whole model
That list is a risk ladder: 1m MSS+FVG is the most aggressive and pays the most, 15m FVG is the safest, wins most often and pays the least. Pick the timeframe you actually want to trade and run the indicator there.
Stop goes on the protective structure that belongs to the entry zone. Target 1 is always the opposite side of the Asian range. Target 2 extends to the next inducement swing — the draw for the day.
④ NEW YORK KILL ZONE (07:00 – 10:00) — Trade 2, the continuation
When the London raid then breaks the OPPOSITE side of the Asian range with displacement, the London extreme is very likely the high or the low of the day. The indicator draws the optimal trade entry fibonacci over that impulse — 0.5 / 0.618 / 0.705 / 0.79 — and takes the continuation from the retracement into it, with the stop beyond 0.79 or 1.0. The setup is strongest when the origin zone was a 4h zone, because the whole day is then a 4h market-maker model running internal to external. If the draw on liquidity was already reached before New York opens, the day is flagged as low probability and skipped.
⑤ THE NO-SWEEP FILTERS — the part almost nobody explains
Two situations mean the raid you are waiting for will never come:
· HTF POI ALREADY TAPPED IN ASIA — price worked into the zone during the Asian session and then broke structure against the range. The Asian high is now protected. The indicator says so on the chart and points you at the fallbacks instead: the 50 % of the range, an internal range high (trend line liquidity), or a fair value gap built inside the Asian session.
· STRONG HIGH / STRONG LOW INSIDE THE RANGE — a sweep immediately followed by a break of structure. That extreme is protected. What looks like equal highs later on is a rejection-block reversal, not a raid. Wait for the sweep and you miss the trade.
⑥ NEWS FILTER
High-impact US news in the New York session turns London into a range or a one-way run with no reversal. Pine cannot read a news feed, so paste the dates and those days are skipped.
━━━ WHY EVERY SIGNAL EXPLAINS ITSELF ━━━
Hover any signal pill and you get the full reasoning, not a label:
the range and its size, the exact price the liquidity was raided at, which point of interest it landed in, what the higher timeframe structure was doing, which confirmation fired, whether the raid was validated by a fair value gap, plus entry, stop, both targets, risk in pips, reward in pips and the R multiple.
Setups that were found but rejected are explained too. A "NO TRADE" tag tells you the raid, the zone and the confirmation were all there but the reward did not pay for the stop — so you learn the filter instead of wondering why nothing fired.
Every zone, every structure event, the range lines, the OTE levels and both education cards carry the same kind of tooltip. There is a HOW TO READ THIS card and an honest BEFORE YOU TRADE THIS card on the chart.
━━━ COCKPIT PANEL ━━━
Live session state, symbol, chart timeframe, higher-timeframe bias, the full Asian range with a PROTECTED / OPEN flag on each side, an eight-step checklist that fills in as the setup builds, the open position with stop and target, a large status line, a rough win / loss / break-even tracker and the timestamp of the last signal.
━━━ ALERTS AND AUTOMATION ━━━
Every event fires a clean JSON payload ready for a webhook — entry, stop, both targets, the range boundaries, the point of interest that produced the signal, symbol, exchange, timeframe, volume and an optional account field. Events: ENTRY, TP1, SL, BE, SWEEP, RANGE. Five plain-language alertconditions are included as well for anybody who just wants a notification.
━━━ SETTINGS WORTH KNOWING ━━━
· Sessions are fully configurable if your broker feed needs a different reference
· Turn individual POI types and POI timeframes on and off
· Choose one confirmation model or let it take the first valid trigger
· Four stop modes, two-target management, break-even at a chosen R
· Full chart theme with navy background, mint / red candles and session shading — or switch it off and keep your own
━━━ HONEST NOTES ━━━
This model is mechanical up to the trigger. Direction is fixed and never inverts, the windows are fixed, the filters are fixed — but the final judgement, is this really the high of the session, stays discretionary. Anybody telling you a setup is 100 % mechanical is selling you something.
Expect zero to four setups a day across two pairs, roughly 20 pips average per trade, and losing days. Judge it weekly and monthly, never daily. The safest entry model fires rarely by design; the aggressive ones fire more and stop out more.
The win / loss counter in the panel is a rough on-chart tracker that assumes a fill at the marked price and resolves target before stop within the same bar. It is not a backtest and it is not a performance claim.
This indicator is a study tool. It is not financial advice.
━━━ CREDIT ━━━
The rule set follows the well-known ICT Asian-sweep model as it is taught publicly in the ICT community. The implementation, the point-of-interest engine, the no-sweep filters, the panel and the design are original work.
Open source — read it, change it, learn from it.
WHY THESE PARTS BELONG TOGETHER
The session range, the higher-timeframe point of interest and the lower-timeframe confirmation form
a single filter chain, and the model does not work with any link missing. The range supplies the
liquidity pool that is going to be raided, the higher-timeframe zone decides whether that raid is a
reversal or a trap, and the lower-timeframe trigger decides when. A raid without a zone is noise,
a zone without a raid has nothing to react to, and both without a trigger have no entry.

Engulfing Overlap Zone [8 Types]Engulfing Overlap Zone
This script looks for the moment control changes hands.
An engulfing pattern forms and commits one side of the market. Later that pattern breaks. On or
around the same candle, an engulfing pattern in the OPPOSITE direction confirms. When the two
structures occupy the same price area, that shared area is where one side was trapped and the
other took over. This script finds those moments and draws only that area.
Nothing else is plotted. Ordinary engulfing patterns, and engulfing patterns that simply failed,
are used internally but never drawn, because on their own they are not what this tool is about.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
1. It reports a transfer of control, not a pattern.
Most pattern tools mark every occurrence they find. This one requires a three step sequence to
complete before anything appears: a pattern forms, that pattern breaks, and an opposing pattern
confirms in the same price area. Any of the three missing means nothing is drawn.
2. The zone is measured, not just marked.
Two zones can touch by a hair or sit almost perfectly on top of each other. Those are very
different situations, so the script measures how much of the zone is actually shared and states
it as a percentage. You can then hide everything below a threshold you choose.
3. Everything is sorted into eight types.
The zone carries the identity of the engulfing pattern that took over, including whether that
pattern grabbed liquidity before it confirmed. Each of the eight can be shown or hidden
independently and has its own alert.
4. The hard part is the pairing.
When a pattern breaks there is often more than one opposing pattern nearby that could be its
counterpart. Picking the right one, and rejecting the ones that only look related, is what this
script is really about. The rule used is simple to state and is described below, but it is the
piece that decides whether the output is meaningful or noise.
THE PATTERNS INVOLVED
A candle is Green when close is greater than open, Red when close is less than open, and a Doji
when close equals open. A Doji is neither. Only fully closed candles are read, and the running
candle is never used.
Regular engulfing, two candles
R Buy EG: Red Base candle, and the very next candle is Green and closes above the Base High.
R Sell EG: Green Base candle, and the very next candle is Red and closes below the Base Low.
E-Regular engulfing, three or more candles
ER Buy EG: Red Base candle followed by a run of consecutive Green candles. The run must contain
at least 2 Green candles, and confirmation happens when one of them closes above the Base High.
A single Red candle before confirmation cancels the run. Doji candles are skipped: they neither
count toward the run nor break it.
ER Sell EG: the mirror image, with a Green Base and a run of at least 2 Red candles, one of
which closes below the Base Low.
If the very first candle after the Base already closes through it, that is by definition a
Regular pattern, so E-Regular requires the second candle or later to break the level. One Base
candle can never produce both.
Type 1, the same four patterns plus a liquidity sweep
Type 1 adds one requirement: before the close breaks through one side of the Base candle, price
must have traded through the opposite side.
T1 R Buy EG: the Confirm candle's Low reaches at or below the Base Low.
T1 R Sell EG: the Confirm candle's High reaches at or above the Base High.
T1 ER Buy EG: at least one Green candle of the run reaches at or below the Base Low.
T1 ER Sell EG: at least one Red candle of the run reaches at or above the Base High.
Any candle of the run can satisfy the sweep, including the Confirm candle itself. The sweep is
always measured against the Base candle, never against another candle in the run.
HOW AN OVERLAP ZONE IS BUILT
Step 1. A pattern confirms and is tracked from then on.
Step 2. The pattern breaks. A Buy Engulfing breaks when a Red candle CLOSES below its Base Low.
A Sell Engulfing breaks when a Green candle CLOSES above its Base High. A wick through the level
is not enough; the close has to settle beyond it.
Step 3. The script looks for an engulfing pattern in the opposite direction whose confirmation
lands on the breaking candle, or as close before it as possible, and whose zone shares both time
and price with the broken one. Where several candidates exist, the one closest to the break is
taken, because that is the one that actually represents the handover.
When all three steps line up, one zone is drawn: the price range of the Base candle of the
pattern that took over, running from that Base candle to its Confirm candle.
The eight resulting types are R Buy EG Overlap, R Sell EG Overlap, ER Buy EG Overlap, ER Sell EG
Overlap and the four Type 1 versions of the same. The type always describes the pattern that
took over, because that is the zone on your chart.
OVERLAP STRENGTH
Strength is the share of the drawn zone that sits inside the price range of the broken zone.
100 percent means the whole zone is shared, which is the tightest possible confluence. A small
number means the two structures barely reach each other. The figure is appended to each label,
and Minimum Overlap Strength lets you discard anything below a level you set. That threshold
applies to the chart, the summary table and the alerts together, so what you see and what you
are notified about never disagree.
READING THE CHART
Each zone is filled in two tones, and the split is the whole point:
- The part that shares price with the broken zone is drawn in the direction colour, green for a
Buy Overlap and red for a Sell Overlap, with a solid border. This is the confluence.
- Whatever is left over is drawn in neutral yellow with no border.
So the colour split you see is the strength figure, shown rather than stated. A zone that is
almost entirely green is strong. A zone with a thin green sliver and a large yellow body is
weak, and the percentage will say so.
Each zone carries a label with its type and strength, placed below a Buy Overlap and above a
Sell Overlap so it points at its own zone.
A summary table in the corner counts what was found in the current scan window, split by Buy and
Sell. Types you have switched off are still counted, so the table always reflects what the market
printed rather than what is currently on screen. Zones rejected by the strength threshold are not
counted, because that threshold decides what qualifies as a zone at all.
SETTINGS
Scan
- Scan Length: how many closed candles are scanned backwards. The running candle is always
excluded.
- Minimum Overlap Strength: the percentage a zone must reach to qualify.
Pattern Types
- An individual switch for each of the eight types.
Zone Style
- Separate colours for the shared area and the remaining area, on both the Buy and Sell side.
Labels
- Show Labels, Show Strength in Label, Label Size, and Label Distance from Zone as a percentage
of the zone height. Increase the distance on noisy charts so labels clear the candles.
Summary Table
- Show, position and size of the corner table.
ALERTS
Eight alert conditions are available, one per type:
R Buy EG Overlap, R Sell EG Overlap, T1 R Buy EG Overlap, T1 R Sell EG Overlap, ER Buy EG
Overlap, ER Sell EG Overlap, T1 ER Buy EG Overlap, T1 ER Sell EG Overlap.
An alert fires on the candle that completes the handover. Each message carries the type, the
symbol, the timeframe and the closing price. The same messages are also sent through the alert
function, so the "Any alert() function call" alert type can deliver every zone through a single
alert.
All alerts are evaluated only after a candle has fully closed.
If you read the source, note that the chart and the alerts are two separate paths. The chart is
rebuilt by scanning history backwards on the last bar, while the alerts keep a running list of
confirmed patterns and test each closed candle against it. Two paths are used because rescanning
the whole history on every bar would be far too slow, and a running list cannot redraw the past.
Both apply exactly the same rules and the same strength threshold, so they always agree.
REPAINTING
This script does not repaint.
- Detection reads confirmed candles only. The scan starts one bar behind the latest bar, so the
candle that is still forming is never part of any calculation.
- Every alert signal is written so that it can only become true once a candle has finished. Price
moving inside an open candle cannot make a signal appear and then disappear.
- Zones are rebuilt on the last bar from confirmed history. A drawn zone does not move, change
colour, change type or change its strength figure afterwards. It only leaves the chart when it
falls outside the Scan Length window.
When you create an alert, PulseWire may show a caution banner saying the indicator can repaint.
That banner appears automatically for any script that uses the built in bar state variables, no
matter how they are used, because the platform cannot check the intent behind them. This script
uses them for the opposite purpose: one of them is what restricts every signal to bar close, and
the other is what redraws the zones efficiently on the final bar. Choosing "Once Per Bar Close"
when creating the alert is still recommended.
NOTES AND LIMITATIONS
- These zones are rare by design. Three separate conditions have to line up, so long stretches
with nothing on the chart are normal and expected. If you want to see more, lower the strength
threshold before raising the scan length.
- Scan Length is capped lower than in a plain pattern scanner. Every candidate pattern has to be
followed forward for a break and then matched against opposing patterns, which is far heavier
than simply detecting a pattern. The cap keeps the script responsive on slower machines.
- A zone whose Base candle falls outside the scan window will not appear even if the handover
itself was recent. If zones seem to be missing, raise the Scan Length before changing anything
else.
- For alerts the number of patterns tracked at once is capped and the oldest are released first.
In practice patterns break or age out long before this matters.
- Detection is purely structural. It reports where control changed hands and how much the two
structures shared. It does not rank zones beyond that, measure what happened afterwards, or
produce entries, targets or stops.
- Doji candles are treated as neutral by design. They never act as a Base candle and never break
an E-Regular run. On symbols and timeframes that print many Doji candles this makes runs
slightly more tolerant than a strict same colour rule would be.
HOW TO USE IT
A zone marks an area where one side committed, was proven wrong, and was immediately replaced by
the other side. Traders commonly watch these areas for reactions when price returns to them,
particularly the shared portion, since that is the part both structures agreed on.
The strength figure is there to let you be selective. Starting at zero shows everything so you
can see how the tool behaves on your symbol and timeframe, and raising it narrows the output to
the tighter confluences.
Type 1 zones are worth separating out. There the pattern that took over first grabbed liquidity
and only then confirmed, which is a different sequence from a clean takeover.
These are reference areas, not entry signals. Use them alongside higher timeframe structure, your
own support and resistance mapping, and proper risk management.

ICT Entry Model Liquidity Sweep, MSS & FVG [LunqFX]A smart-money entry is never a single signal — it is a sequence. Price runs the stops beyond a swing, structure shifts the other way, and the entry is taken from the imbalance that shift left behind. Most ICT indicators draw one of those pieces and leave you to assemble the rest by hand. This one tracks the whole sequence live and finishes it with an actual trade: entry, stop, target and a quality score that tells you whether the setup was worth taking at all.
❶ THE FOUR STAGES
▸ LIQUIDITY SWEEP — price trades beyond a swing high or low, takes the stops resting there, and closes back inside. The sweep is marked and the level it raided is drawn. This is the manipulation leg, and it is where the stop for the trade will sit.
▸ MSS (MARKET STRUCTURE SHIFT) — after the sweep, price closes through the last short-term swing in the opposite direction. This is the confirmation that the sweep was a reversal and not a continuation. Note that the shift is measured against internal structure, not the major swing: waiting for a major swing to break would put the entry far too late, which is the single most common mistake in automated ICT tools.
▸ FVG ENTRY — the displacement that broke structure leaves a three-candle imbalance. That gap is the entry zone, drawn as a box, because price commonly returns to fill it before continuing.
▸ RISK AND TARGET — the stop goes beyond the sweep extreme, the target is your chosen R multiple. Both are drawn as filled zones running back to the entry, so the whole trade reads as one object instead of a set of loose lines.
❷ SETUP QUALITY 0–100
Not every sequence deserves a trade, and this is where the indicator does something no other entry tool does. Every setup is graded on four measurable properties:
▸ SWEEP DEPTH — how far beyond the level price actually ran, in ATR. A deeper raid means more stops were genuinely taken. ▸ DISPLACEMENT — how decisively the structure was broken, in ATR. A weak break is a weak setup. ▸ FVG SIZE — how large the imbalance is. A bigger gap is a stronger entry. ▸ SPEED — how quickly the shift followed the sweep. A fast reversal is aggressive; a slow one has lost its edge.
The four are blended into a single 0–100 score shown on every entry tag and in the dashboard. Set the minimum quality in the settings and weak sequences simply stop being drawn — you trade the good ones instead of every arrow.
❸ HOW TO TRADE IT
1 — Wait for the SWEEP marker. The dashboard turns amber and reads SWEEP · WAITING MSS. Nothing to do yet: the manipulation has happened but it is not confirmed.
2 — Wait for MSS. When structure shifts, the setup is drawn and the dashboard turns green for a long or red for a short. If structure does not shift within the allowed window, the sweep is discarded and the model resets — no stale signals.
3 — Check the quality score before committing. High scores come from a deep sweep, a decisive break and a clean imbalance. If the number is low, the sequence was technically valid but structurally weak.
4 — Place the trade from the ticket. Entry at the FVG edge, stop beyond the sweep, target at your R multiple. The dashboard shows all three plus the exact risk in price, so the position size follows directly.
5 — Let price come to you. The FVG is a limit entry, not a market entry. If price never returns to the gap, the setup is simply skipped — that is the model working as intended.
❹ HOW IT WORKS
Liquidity swings and internal structure are detected with confirmed pivots, so a level only exists once the bars on both sides of it have closed. A sweep requires a bar to trade beyond the swing and close back inside it, and it is only registered when the shift level is still unbroken — otherwise the sequence could confirm itself on the very next bar. The structure shift requires a close through that internal level within your chosen window. The imbalance is found in the displacement leg using the standard three-candle definition. The stop is the sweep extreme, the target is the entry plus or minus the risk times your R multiple, and setups whose stop would be smaller than a fraction of ATR are rejected as untradeable. The quality score is a weighted blend of the four properties above, each normalised by ATR so the score behaves the same on every symbol and timeframe.
Works on any market and timeframe — forex, gold, indices, crypto and stocks. Intraday charts from 5m to 4h suit the model best, since that is where liquidity raids and structure shifts happen most often.
SETTINGS — liquidity swing length, internal structure length, maximum bars from sweep to shift, R multiple for the target, minimum stop distance, minimum quality, number of setups kept, level extension, FVG and level visibility, candle colouring and dashboard position.
ALERTS — long setup confirmed, short setup confirmed, and any setup confirmed. All fire on closed bars only.
NON-REPAINTING — every stage is validated on bar close and built from confirmed pivots. A setup that has printed never moves, never changes its levels and never disappears.
The four stages are not four indicators bundled together — they are four steps of one entry model, and none of them is tradeable alone. The sweep without the shift is just a wick; the shift without the sweep is just a break; the imbalance without either is just a gap. That is why they belong in a single tool.
This indicator is an educational market-analysis tool, not financial advice. The quality score describes the structure of a setup and does not predict its outcome. Always confirm with your own analysis and manage your risk. Indicator
Liquidation Magnet [Quantum Algo]Liquidation Magnet
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 OVERVIEW
Liquidation Magnet estimates where over-leveraged long and short positions are likely to be liquidated, builds decaying volume-weighted clusters at those levels, and renders them as heat ladders directly on your chart. A gold magnet beam locks onto the strongest nearby pool, purge flashes mark the moment price sweeps through a cluster, and a statistics panel tracks how often those sweeps actually reverse on the exact symbol and timeframe you are trading.
The idea is simple and powerful: price does not wander randomly — it is drawn toward liquidity. The largest pockets of forced orders sit where crowded positions get liquidated. This tool maps those pockets, weighs them, and watches them get consumed.
Important honesty note, up front: every level in this indicator is an ESTIMATE derived from price structure and typical leverage tiers. This script does not read exchange liquidation feeds or order-book data, and no indicator on this platform can. Anyone claiming otherwise is guessing with extra steps. This tool guesses transparently — and then measures itself.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 WHAT IS A LIQUIDATION MAGNET?
When traders open leveraged positions near a swing high or swing low, their liquidation prices sit at fixed, mathematically determined distances from their entries. A crowd of 25x longs opened near a swing low will be liquidated roughly four percent below it. A crowd of 50x shorts opened near a swing high will be liquidated roughly two percent above it.
Those liquidation prices are where forced market orders wait. Forced orders are fuel. Markets are drawn toward fuel — sweep the pool, fill the orders, and very often reverse once the fuel is spent. That pull is the "magnet."
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 WHY IS THIS ORIGINAL?
1. Cluster model, not static lines. Swing anchors project liquidation estimates through four leverage tiers (10x, 25x, 50x, 100x, each toggleable). Nearby estimates MERGE into clusters whose mass grows with the volume behind the anchoring swing — scattered guesses become weighted zones.
2. Living decay engine. Positions close, stops move, the crowd rotates. Every cluster loses mass each bar and dies when it fades — or the instant price sweeps through it and consumes it. The map you see is current, never a museum of stale lines.
3. Purge detection with self-auditing statistics. When price trades through a pool, the tool prints a purge flash and then measures what happened next. The dashboard reports the ten-bar reversal rate after upward and downward purges — computed on your chart, shrunk toward neutral at small sample sizes, with a Wilson lower bound available in tooltips. The indicator grades its own thesis in public.
4. The magnet beam. Among all pools within reach, the strongest (mass discounted by distance) is highlighted with a gold beam from live price — a single glance answers "where is the nearest large pocket of fuel?"
5. Radical transparency in a genre full of implication. Every tooltip, the dashboard footer, and this description state plainly that levels are structural estimates, not exchange data.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 HOW IT WORKS
— Swing anchors: confirmed pivot highs and lows define where crowds of entries concentrate.
— Tier projection: each anchor projects liquidation estimates at the distances implied by common leverage tiers (about 1%, 2%, 4%, and 10% from entry).
— Mass: each projection carries mass scaled by the volume z-score at the anchor — swings formed on climactic volume imply larger crowds.
— Clustering: projections landing near an existing cluster merge into it, shifting its weighted center and adding mass.
— Decay and death: mass decays every bar; weak clusters are pruned; swept clusters are consumed immediately.
— Rendering: each cluster draws a trailing heat band across the chart plus a three-layer intensity ladder at the right edge — length and brightness scale with mass; the strongest pool burns gold.
— Purge statistics: after each sweep, the ten-bar outcome is recorded in first-in-first-out sample sets, and reversal rates are displayed with sample counts.
Everything is computed on confirmed bars. Signals and clusters do not repaint. All drawings are capped for performance.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 HOW TO USE IT
— Directional context: a heavy pool overhead with light fuel below suggests the path of least resistance is up (toward the fuel), and the Net Pull row quantifies this bias.
— Sweep-and-reversal trading: the classic use. Wait for price to purge a strong pool, check the dashboard's historical reversal rate for that direction on your symbol, and treat the purge as a candidate exhaustion point for your own entry method.
— Target selection: strong pools are natural take-profit magnets — many traders exit into the fuel rather than after it is spent.
— Risk placement: avoid resting stops just beyond a hot ladder; that is exactly where the market has an incentive to reach.
— Works on any symbol, but the leverage-tier logic is designed for crypto perpetual futures, where liquidation mechanics dominate intraday movement. Best on 15m to 4H.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 SETTINGS
— Swing Anchor Length: pivot size defining the anchoring swings.
— Leverage Tiers: toggle 10x / 25x / 50x / 100x projections independently.
— Maximum Clusters, Merge Tolerance, Mass Decay: control the density and lifespan of the map.
— Purge flashes, heat ladders, magnet beam, and ladder length are individually toggleable.
— Statistics: sample cap, minimum samples to grade, shrinkage strength, Wilson z-score.
— Full color and dashboard customization.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 ALERTS
— Approaching Magnet — price within half an Average True Range of an estimated pool.
— Upward Purge — an estimated short-liquidation pool was swept.
— Downward Purge — an estimated long-liquidation pool was swept.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 FAQ
Q: Is this real liquidation data from exchanges?
A: No — and this matters. PulseWire indicators cannot access exchange liquidation feeds or order books. Every level here is an estimate computed from price structure and the fixed mathematics of leverage. The tool is honest about this everywhere, and it compensates by measuring its own hit rate on your chart.
Q: Why do the estimated levels often line up with where price actually reverses?
A: Because liquidation math is public and mechanical. Everyone's 50x liquidation sits roughly two percent from entry, so crowded swings reliably produce crowded liquidation pockets — no private data required.
Q: Does it repaint?
A: No. Clusters form on confirmed pivots, purges are detected on confirmed bars, and consumed clusters stay consumed.
Q: Which markets and timeframes?
A: Designed for crypto perpetual futures on 15m–4H. The structural logic works elsewhere, but the leverage-tier assumptions are crypto-native.
Q: What do the reversal statistics mean?
A: After each purge, the tool records whether price moved back against the sweep over the next ten bars. Rates are shrunk toward fifty percent at low sample counts so early numbers cannot overstate the edge. They describe this chart's history only — they are not predictions.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 CREDITS
The liquidation-level mapping concept was popularized by crypto derivatives analytics platforms; pivot structure detection is classical technique; the Wilson score interval is by Edwin B. Wilson (1927). The cluster model, volume-weighted mass and decay engine, purge state machine, self-auditing statistics, and all code in this script are original work. No third-party or open-source script code was reused.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
🔶 LIMITATIONS
— All levels are estimates; actual liquidation prices vary with margin mode, maintenance margin, fees, and funding.
— The statistics describe historical behavior on the current chart only; past frequencies never guarantee future outcomes.
— On illiquid symbols or very low timeframes, swing anchors are noisier and clusters less meaningful.

Engulfing Failed Zone [8 Types]Engulfing Failed Zone
Most engulfing tools show you where a pattern formed. This one shows you where it broke.
The script finds confirmed engulfing patterns and then keeps watching them. When price later
closes back through the far side of the pattern's Base candle, the pattern is invalidated and
the area it occupied is drawn as a failed zone, from the Base candle to the exact candle that
broke it.
A failed pattern is not noise. It marks a level where one side committed, was proven wrong,
and left an area behind that price often reacts to again.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
1. It tracks invalidation, not formation.
A normal engulfing indicator stops working the moment the pattern prints. This script treats
the pattern as an open structure and follows it forward until something breaks it. Only the
broken ones are drawn, so the chart shows failures rather than signals.
2. Failure is defined by the close, not by a wick.
A candle may spike through the Base candle and recover. That is not a failure here. The
breaking candle has to CLOSE beyond the level, and it has to be the correct color: a Red
candle closing below the Base Low breaks a Buy Engulfing, a Green candle closing above the
Base High breaks a Sell Engulfing.
3. Failed zones are sorted into eight types, not two.
The failure inherits the identity of the pattern that failed. A liquidity sweep engulfing that
fails is a different event from a plain two candle engulfing that fails, and the script keeps
them separate so you can study or filter them independently.
4. Only the first failure is drawn.
Once a pattern breaks, it is done. Later candles closing through the same level are not drawn
again, which keeps the chart readable instead of stacking boxes on one level.
THE PATTERNS BEING TRACKED
A candle is Green when close is greater than open, Red when close is less than open, and a
Doji when close equals open. A Doji is neither. Only fully closed candles are read, and the
running candle is never used.
Regular engulfing (2 candles)
R Buy EG
Red Base candle, and the very next candle is Green and closes above the Base candle's High.
R Sell EG
Green Base candle, and the very next candle is Red and closes below the Base candle's Low.
E-Regular engulfing (3 or more candles)
ER Buy EG
Red Base candle followed by a run of consecutive Green candles. The run must contain at least
2 Green candles, and confirmation happens when one of them closes above the Base candle's
High. A single Red candle appearing before confirmation cancels the run. Doji candles are
skipped: they neither count toward the run nor break it.
ER Sell EG
Green Base candle followed by a run of at least 2 consecutive Red candles, one of which closes
below the Base candle's Low. A single Green candle cancels the run. Doji candles are skipped.
If the very first candle after the Base already closes through it, that is by definition a
Regular pattern, so E-Regular requires the second candle or later to break the level. One Base
candle can therefore never produce both a Regular and an E-Regular pattern.
Type 1: the same four patterns plus a liquidity sweep
Type 1 adds one requirement. Before the close breaks through one side of the Base candle,
price must have traded through the opposite side.
T1 R Buy EG
An R Buy EG where the Confirm candle's Low is at or below the Base candle's Low.
T1 R Sell EG
An R Sell EG where the Confirm candle's High is at or above the Base candle's High.
T1 ER Buy EG
An ER Buy EG where at least one Green candle in the run has a Low at or below the Base
candle's Low. Any candle of the run qualifies, including the Confirm candle itself.
T1 ER Sell EG
An ER Sell EG where at least one Red candle in the run has a High at or above the Base
candle's High. Any candle of the run qualifies, including the Confirm candle itself.
The sweep is always measured against the Base candle, never against another candle in the run.
WHAT COUNTS AS A FAILURE
After a pattern confirms, the script scans forward one candle at a time.
A Buy Engulfing fails when a Red candle closes strictly below the Base candle's Low.
A Sell Engulfing fails when a Green candle closes strictly above the Base candle's High.
The scan begins on the candle after the Confirm candle, so a pattern is never judged by its
own confirmation. The first candle that meets the condition becomes the Failure candle, and
the zone is drawn from the Base candle across to it. Nothing is drawn for patterns that are
still intact.
That gives eight failed zone types in total: R Buy EG Failed, R Sell EG Failed, ER Buy EG
Failed, ER Sell EG Failed, and the four Type 1 versions of the same.
READING THE CHART
Each failed pattern draws a rectangle covering the Base candle's full High to Low range,
stretched horizontally from the Base candle to the candle that broke it.
Colors follow the OUTCOME, not the original direction. This is worth reading twice:
- A Buy Engulfing that failed is drawn in the bearish color. The buyers committed and lost, so
the area above is now resistance, and its label sits above the zone.
- A Sell Engulfing that failed is drawn in the bullish color. The sellers committed and lost,
so the area is now support, and its label sits below the zone.
In other words the zone is colored by who is in control after the failure, which is the
information you actually trade from.
The border tells you which pattern failed:
Solid border: a Regular pattern, confirmed by the very next candle
Dashed border: an E-Regular pattern, confirmation was delayed over several candles
Thin, softened border: a plain pattern, no sweep
Thick, crisp border: Type 1, a liquidity sweep occurred before confirmation
Type 1 zones are also filled more solidly, so the stronger patterns stand out when several
zones sit close together.
A separate line marks the broken edge of the Base candle: the Low for a failed Buy Engulfing,
the High for a failed Sell Engulfing. This shows at a glance which side of the pattern gave
way, and it is the level price most often returns to.
Each zone carries a label with its pattern tag, pointing at its own zone, so it is always
clear which label belongs to which rectangle.
A summary table in the corner counts how many of each type were found in the current scan
window, split into Buy EG and Sell EG columns. The counts include types that are currently
hidden, so the table always reflects what the market actually printed rather than what is
switched on.
SETTINGS
Scan
- Scan Length: how many closed candles are scanned backwards from the latest bar. The running
candle is always excluded.
Pattern Types
- An individual on and off switch for each of the eight failed zone types.
Zone Style
- Buy EG Failed Zone and Sell EG Failed Zone: the two zone colors. Defaults follow the outcome
logic described above.
- Zone Transparency: fill transparency of a plain Regular or E-Regular failed zone.
- Type 1 Extra Opacity: how much more solid Type 1 zones are filled compared to the value
above.
- Highlight Broken Edge, and its color: marks the side of the Base candle price closed
through.
Labels
- Show Labels, Label Size, and Label Distance from Zone as a percentage of the Base candle
height. Increase the distance on noisy charts so labels clear the candles.
Summary Table
- Show, position, and size of the corner table.
ALERTS
Eight alert conditions are available, one per failed zone type:
R Buy EG Failed, R Sell EG Failed, T1 R Buy EG Failed, T1 R Sell EG Failed, ER Buy EG Failed,
ER Sell EG Failed, T1 ER Buy EG Failed, T1 ER Sell EG Failed.
An alert fires on the candle that completes the failure. Each message carries the pattern tag,
the symbol, the timeframe and the closing price. The script also sends the same messages
through the alert function, so the "Any alert() function call" alert type can deliver every
failure through a single alert.
All alerts are evaluated only after a candle has fully closed.
Internally, every confirmed engulfing is held in a list and each closed candle is checked
against that list. This is what allows a failure to be reported the moment it happens, without
rescanning the whole history on every bar.
REPAINTING
This script does not repaint.
- Detection reads confirmed candles only. The scan starts one bar behind the latest bar, so
the candle that is still forming is never part of any calculation.
- Every alert signal is written so that it can only become true once a candle has finished.
Price moving inside an open candle cannot make a signal appear and then disappear.
- Zones are rebuilt on the last bar using confirmed history. A drawn zone does not move,
change color or change type afterwards. It only leaves the chart when it falls outside the
Scan Length window.
When you create an alert, PulseWire may show a caution banner saying the indicator can
repaint. That banner appears automatically for any script that uses the built in bar state
variables, no matter how they are used, because the platform cannot check the intent behind
them. This script uses them for the opposite purpose: one of them is what restricts every
signal to bar close, and the other is what redraws the zones efficiently on the final bar.
Choosing "Once Per Bar Close" when creating the alert is still recommended.
NOTES AND LIMITATIONS
- Nothing is drawn for a pattern that has not failed. An empty chart means the engulfing
patterns in that window are all still intact, which is information in itself.
- Increasing Scan Length raises the number of drawing objects. PulseWire caps these at 500
boxes, 500 labels and 500 lines, and the oldest objects are dropped once a cap is reached.
The default value is chosen to stay well inside those limits on normal charts.
- A very short Scan Length can hide zones whose Base candle sits outside the window even
though the failure is recent. If failures seem to be missing, raise the Scan Length.
- For alerts, the number of patterns tracked at once is capped, and the oldest are released
first. In practice patterns fail or age out long before this matters.
- Detection is purely structural. It reports where a pattern broke and nothing more. It does
not rank failures by quality, measure what happened afterwards, or produce entries, targets
or stops.
- Doji candles are treated as neutral by design. They never act as a Base candle and never
break an E-Regular run. On symbols and timeframes that print many Doji candles this makes
runs slightly more tolerant than a strict same color rule would be.
HOW TO USE IT
A failed engulfing zone marks a level where one side of the market committed and was proven
wrong. Traders commonly watch these areas for:
- Broken supply and demand zones that price returns to and respects from the other side
- Areas where a reversal attempt was flushed out before the move continued
- Momentum shifts, since a failed reversal often precedes a strong continuation
Type 1 failed zones are worth separating out. There the pattern first grabbed liquidity, then
confirmed, and then still failed, which is a different story from a clean pattern simply being
overrun.
These zones are reference areas, not entry signals on their own. Use them alongside higher
timeframe structure, your own support and resistance mapping, and proper risk management.

Engulfing Zone [8 Types]Engulfing Zone
A price action tool that scans closed candles for engulfing behavior and draws the exact zone
each pattern creates, from the candle that sets the level to the candle that breaks it.
Instead of treating "engulfing" as one generic signal, this script separates it into eight
distinct types and reports every pattern under exactly one of them, so what you see on the
chart is never double counted.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT FROM A STANDARD ENGULFING INDICATOR
1. Engulfing is measured by the CLOSE, not by body overlap.
Most engulfing scripts check whether one candle's body covers the previous candle's body.
This script requires the Confirm candle to CLOSE beyond the Base candle's High or Low, wick
included. A candle that merely covers the body but closes back inside the Base range is not
accepted. This is a stricter definition and it filters out a large number of weak signals that
body based detection would report.
2. Confirmation is allowed to be delayed.
A classic engulfing pattern is strictly two candles. In real markets the reaction is often
spread over several candles: a base forms, price pushes in the opposite direction for a few
bars, and only then does a close break the base level. This script detects those extended
setups as their own category rather than ignoring them.
3. Liquidity sweeps are identified as a separate class.
Sometimes the candles that produce the engulf first trade through the far side of the Base
candle, taking out the stop orders resting there, and only then close through the opposite
side. That behavior is meaningfully different from a clean engulf, so it is detected and
labelled separately as Type 1.
THE EIGHT PATTERNS
Throughout, a candle is Green when close is greater than open, Red when close is less than
open, and a Doji when close equals open. A Doji is neither Green nor Red, and is handled
explicitly. Only fully closed candles are read. The running candle is never used.
Regular (2 candles)
R Buy EG
Base candle is Red
The very next candle is Green
That Green candle closes above the Base candle's High
R Sell EG
Base candle is Green
The very next candle is Red
That Red candle closes below the Base candle's Low
E-Regular (3 or more candles)
ER Buy EG
Base candle is Red
It is followed by a run of consecutive Green candles
The run must contain at least 2 Green candles
Confirmation happens when one of those Green candles closes above the Base candle's High
A single Red candle appearing before confirmation cancels the run entirely
Doji candles are skipped: they neither count toward the run nor break it
ER Sell EG
Base candle is Green
It is followed by a run of consecutive Red candles
The run must contain at least 2 Red candles
Confirmation happens when one of those Red candles closes below the Base candle's Low
A single Green candle appearing before confirmation cancels the run entirely
Doji candles are skipped
If the very first candle after the Base already closes through it, that is by definition a
Regular pattern, so E-Regular requires the second candle or later to be the one that breaks
the level. Regular and E-Regular can therefore never both fire from the same Base candle.
Type 1: the same four patterns plus a liquidity sweep
Type 1 adds one requirement on top of the rules above. Before the close breaks through one
side of the Base candle, price must have traded through the opposite side.
T1 R Buy EG
An R Buy EG where the Confirm candle's Low is at or below the Base candle's Low.
T1 R Sell EG
An R Sell EG where the Confirm candle's High is at or above the Base candle's High.
T1 ER Buy EG
An ER Buy EG where at least one Green candle in the run has a Low at or below the Base
candle's Low. Any candle of the run qualifies, including the Confirm candle itself.
T1 ER Sell EG
An ER Sell EG where at least one Red candle in the run has a High at or above the Base
candle's High. Any candle of the run qualifies, including the Confirm candle itself.
The sweep is always measured against the Base candle, never against another candle in the run.
HOW A PATTERN IS CLASSIFIED
Every detected pattern is reported once, under its strongest matching type.
A Regular pattern that also swept is reported as T1 R and is not additionally reported as R.
An E-Regular pattern that also swept is reported as T1 ER and is not additionally reported as
ER. This means:
One pattern produces exactly one zone on the chart, never two stacked on top of each other
The summary table counts each pattern once
Turning off a type hides only that type and never silently hides another
Because Type 1 is a stricter version of its plain counterpart, hiding the plain types and
keeping the Type 1 types visible is a straightforward way to see only the sweep driven setups.
READING THE CHART
Each detected pattern draws a rectangle covering the Base candle's full High to Low range,
stretched horizontally from the Base candle to the Confirm candle. The rectangle is styled so
that its type can be read without looking at the label:
Solid border: Regular, confirmed by the very next candle
Dashed border: E-Regular, confirmation was delayed over several candles
Thin, softened border: a plain pattern, no sweep
Thick, crisp border: Type 1, a liquidity sweep occurred
Type 1 zones are also filled more solidly than plain zones, so stronger patterns stand out
when several zones sit close together.
On a Type 1 zone, a dotted line marks the exact Base level that was raided before the break:
the Base Low on the Buy side, the Base High on the Sell side. This makes the liquidity grab
visible instead of leaving it implied.
Each zone carries a label showing its pattern tag. Labels point at their own zone, below and
pointing up for Buy patterns, above and pointing down for Sell patterns, so it is always clear
which label belongs to which rectangle.
A summary table in the corner shows how many of each type were found inside the current scan
window, split into Buy and Sell columns. The table counts every detected pattern, including
types that are currently hidden, so it always reflects what the market actually printed rather
than what is currently switched on.
SETTINGS

Each message carries the pattern tag, the symbol, the timeframe and the closing price. The
script also sends the same messages through the alert function, so the "Any alert() function
call" alert type can be used to receive every pattern through a single alert.
All alerts are evaluated only after a candle has fully closed.
REPAINTING
This script does not repaint.
- Detection reads confirmed candles only. The zone scan starts one bar behind the latest bar,
so the candle that is still forming is never part of any calculation.

Price moving inside an open candle cannot make a signal appear and then disappear.
- Zones are rebuilt on the last bar using confirmed history. A zone that has been drawn does
not move or change type afterwards. It only leaves the chart when it falls outside the Scan
Length window.

repaint. That banner appears automatically for any script that uses the built in bar state

objects are dropped once a cap is reached. The default value is chosen to stay well inside
those limits on normal charts.
- Detection is purely structural. It reports where a pattern occurred and nothing more. It
does not rank patterns by quality, measure follow through, or produce entries, targets or
stops.
- Doji candles are treated as neutral by design. They never act as a Base candle and never
break an E-Regular run. On symbols and timeframes that print many Doji candles this makes
runs slightly more tolerant than a strict same color rule would be.
HOW TO USE IT
The zones mark where one side of the market decisively lost control of a level. They are
reference areas, not entry signals on their own. Common approaches are to watch how price
behaves when it returns to a zone, or to use zone direction as context alongside higher
timeframe structure, support and resistance levels, or trend direction.
Type 1 zones deserve particular attention, because the sweep tells you the move happened after
liquidity was taken rather than before.

Liquidity Sweep Reversal & Continuation A liquidity-sweep detector that classifies each sweep into a Reversal or Continuation setup, with a live dashboard and built-in entry signals.
Overview
This indicator tracks recent swing highs and lows as active liquidity levels — the pools of resting stop orders that tend to sit just beyond obvious structure. When price wicks beyond one of those levels and closes back inside it, that's flagged as a liquidity sweep (a stop hunt), and the level is removed from tracking since it's been used.
What makes a sweep useful for trading is context: the same sweep can mean two very different things depending on the broader trend.
A sweep against the prevailing higher-timeframe trend is treated as a Reversal setup — often a sign of exhaustion or a stop-hunt marking a turn.
A sweep with the prevailing higher-timeframe trend is treated as a Continuation setup — a shakeout before the trend resumes.
How it works
Liquidity levels — pivot-based swing highs/lows are plotted as dashed lines and tracked until swept.
Sweep detection — a wick beyond a level followed by a close back inside it triggers a sweep event.
Confirmation filters (all optional/toggleable):
Displacement candle — requires real conviction in the sweep candle's body, measured against ATR.
Volume spike — requires above-average participation on the sweep.
Follow-through confirmation — waits for price to break beyond the sweep candle's high/low within a configurable number of bars before actually firing a signal, rather than firing on the wick alone.
Trend context — an EMA-based bias, either local or from a higher timeframe, determines whether a confirmed sweep gets classified as Reversal or Continuation.
Signal quality grading — each fired signal is graded High/Medium/Low based on how many confirmation factors (displacement, volume, ADX alignment) lined up.
Dashboard
Shows the current trend context, the most recent sweep and its price level, whether a signal is currently pending follow-through confirmation, ADX/volume readings, the last signal fired and its quality grade, and running daily counts of reversal vs. continuation signals by direction.
Inputs
Every stage is configurable: pivot lookback and max tracked levels, trend context source (local EMA or HTF EMA) and timeframe, displacement/volume/follow-through confirmation toggles and thresholds, ADX length and trend-strength threshold, and dashboard placement/size.
How to use it
This is a discretionary tool for reading liquidity-driven price action, not a standalone automated system:
Use the Trend Context row to understand what a fresh sweep would mean before it happens.
Treat Reversal signals as higher-risk, contrarian setups — they work best with strong confirmation (high signal quality, ADX alignment) rather than on the wick alone.
Treat Continuation signals as lower-risk, trend-following setups — a shakeout in the direction of the existing trend.
Use the Signal Quality grade to filter out weaker setups rather than acting on every marker.
As with any price-action tool, sweep frequency and quality vary significantly by instrument, timeframe, and the pivot/confirmation settings chosen — backtest and forward-test before trading it live.
Concepts used
This script implements the widely-used "liquidity sweep" / stop-hunt concept found across smart-money and price-action trading methodologies — the idea that price often trades just beyond obvious swing highs/lows to trigger resting stop orders before reversing or continuing. The pivot detection, sweep logic, confirmation filters, trend-context classification, and dashboard are an original implementation built specifically for this script.

Liquidity Sweep Engine Auto Targets [JPT]🔷 OVERVIEW
Liquidity Sweep Engine Auto Targets is an original Pine Script v5 indicator that detects liquidity sweep events using confirmed swing highs and swing lows. Once a valid sweep is identified, the indicator automatically builds a complete trade framework by plotting the Entry, Stop Loss, and multiple Take Profit levels directly on the chart.
The goal is to simplify market structure analysis and provide a clear visual trade plan without requiring manual calculations.
🔷 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator continuously monitors confirmed swing highs and swing lows to identify potential liquidity grabs.
Buy Setup
A bullish setup is generated when price sweeps below a previous swing low and closes back above the swept level (optional close confirmation).
After confirmation, the indicator automatically calculates:
• Entry Price
• Stop Loss
• TP1
• TP2
• TP3
Sell Setup
A bearish setup is generated when price sweeps above a previous swing high and closes back below the swept level.
The indicator then projects:
• Entry Price
• Stop Loss
• TP1
• TP2
• TP3
using user-defined Risk:Reward ratios.
🔷 VISUAL FEATURES
• Buy-side Liquidity Sweep labels
• Sell-side Liquidity Sweep labels
• Automatic Entry line
• Automatic Stop Loss line
• Three configurable Take Profit levels
• Historical trade setup visualization
• Risk-to-Reward projection
• Optional background highlighting
• Configurable line length
• Customizable colors
🔷 AUTO TARGET ENGINE
The built-in Auto Target Engine calculates trade objectives using the selected Risk:Reward values.
Supported target structure:
• TP1 = 1R (default)
• TP2 = 2R
• TP3 = 3R
Users may customize each target independently from the settings panel.
🔷 SIGNAL FILTERS
To reduce false signals, the indicator includes:
• Confirmed swing pivot detection
• Optional close confirmation
• Market structure-based liquidity detection
These filters are designed to help identify higher-quality liquidity sweep events.
🔷 INPUTS
Available settings include:
• Swing Length
• Close Confirmation
• Target Line Length
• TP1 Risk:Reward
• TP2 Risk:Reward
• TP3 Risk:Reward
• Label Visibility
• Line Colors
• Background Highlight
🔷 ALERTS
Built-in alerts are available for:
• Buy-side Liquidity Sweep
• Sell-side Liquidity Sweep
These alerts can be connected to PulseWire's notification system.
🔷 COMMON WORKFLOW
A typical workflow is:
1. Wait for a confirmed liquidity sweep.
2. Allow the signal candle to close (if Close Confirmation is enabled).
3. Review the automatically plotted Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit levels.
4. Combine the setup with your own market structure, trend analysis, or additional confirmation before making any trading decisions.
🔷 MARKETS
This indicator can be used on:
• XAUUSD & GOLD
• Forex
• Stocks
• Cryptocurrency
• Futures
• Indices
• Commodities
It is compatible with multiple timeframes and may be adapted to different trading styles.
🔷 BEST PRACTICES
Many traders choose to combine liquidity sweeps with:
• Market Structure
• Break of Structure (BOS)
• Change of Character (CHoCH)
• Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
• Order Blocks
• Higher Timeframe Trend
These concepts are optional and can provide additional context when evaluating a setup.
🔷 DISCLAIMER
This indicator is provided as a chart analysis tool for educational and informational purposes only. It identifies trade setups according to its programmed rules and does not predict future price movements or guarantee trading results. Users should always perform their own analysis, apply sound risk management, and consider additional market factors before making trading decisions. Indicator
Liquidity Sweep Hunter Algo [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
Liquidity Sweep Hunter Algo identifies liquidity highs and lows across three different lookback periods and keeps them active until they are mitigated. This creates a persistent view of where resting liquidity has formed instead of only showing the latest swing points.
The indicator also displays a heatmap that highlights the relative strength of active liquidity levels and generates reversal signals after price sweeps multiple visible liquidity bands before reclaiming them. Optional trade drawings project a stop loss, reward target, and intermediate target levels directly on the chart.
🟠 CONCEPTS
Liquidity Level — A price extreme detected from fast, medium, and slow lookback windows. Matching levels are merged so nearby highs or lows are treated as the same liquidity area.
Liquidity Heatmap — A visual strength map where colour represents the relative strength of each active liquidity level compared to the other visible levels.
Multi-Level Liquidity Sweep — A reversal condition where price sweeps at least two visible liquidity bands and then closes back beyond the reclaim level within a limited number of bars. An optional strength filter can require the swept levels to exceed a minimum average strength.
🟠 FEATURES
Liquidity Heatmap — Displays active liquidity levels using a colour gradient that reflects their relative strength.
Multi-Level Sweep Signals — Plots bullish and bearish reversal labels after confirmed liquidity sweep and reclaim events.
Trade Projection Boxes — Draws entry, stop loss, reward zone, and target milestone levels after each signal.
Trade Progress Display — Fills the target area as price reaches successive target levels and marks completed trades with a check mark.
🟠 HOW TO USE
Watch the heatmap to identify where stronger liquidity has accumulated around current price.
Wait for a bullish or bearish sweep signal after price clears multiple liquidity bands and reclaims the area.
Use the optional trade projection as a visual reference for the calculated stop loss, reward target, and target milestones.
Increase the lookback values to focus on broader liquidity zones or decrease them to detect more local levels.
Adjust the sweep strength filter if you want signals only when stronger liquidity zones are involved.
🟠 CONCLUSION
Liquidity Sweep Hunter Algo combines persistent liquidity mapping, a relative strength heatmap, and multi-level liquidity sweep detection in a single indicator. It also provides optional trade projections that remain on the chart after each signal. Together these features help traders monitor where liquidity has formed, when it has been swept, and where price has reclaimed the area. Indicator
Liquidity Sweep & ATR Envelope⚡ Liquidity Sweep & ATR Envelope
The market hunts stops. This tool shows you where it just happened — and whether price actually rejected the grab or kept right on going. 🎯
Liquidity sweeps caught at volatility extremes, confirmed by a real reclaim, fully resolved on the bar they fire. No repaint. No HTF trickery.
🔍 THE MECHANICS
📐 The envelope — an ATR band around a 20-period basis. It's the visual anchor on the chart AND the qualification threshold at once: the same measurement does both jobs, so there's no separate cosmetic ATR filter bolted on top.
🎯 Pivot + envelope, both required — a signal needs the wick to breach a confirmed pivot level AND clear the band plus a clearance buffer. Levels are one-shot: any wick through a tracked pivot consumes it, signal or not. Re-arms on the next confirmed pivot.
↩️ Reclaim, not just recovery — the close has to snap back past the swept level by at least half the wick's own penetration depth (adjustable, 0 to disable). A candle that barely creeps back over the line doesn't count as a rejection — the snap-back has to beat the sweep.
Levels are one-shot: any wick through a tracked pivot consumes it — signal or not — and the tool re-arms on the next confirmed swing. What you see is exactly what happened.
🛡️ Non-repaint by construction — pivots confirm after their right-side bars, and every signal, marker, zone, and alert is gated to bar close. A triangle that printed yesterday printed on that bar and never moved. What you backtest is what you trade. ✅
🎨 On the chart:
🌊 Hero ATR envelope with event-driven band glow — bands light up when price presses them or on a fresh sweep.
📦 Gradient sweep zones from swept level to wick extreme — historical signals legible at a glance.
👣 Swept-history footprints so you can read where liquidity already got taken.
🎛️ 8 themes (Suite, Ocean, Royal, Ember, Mono, Frost + full Custom), optional bar tint, trigger-threshold line, compact status table.
🔔 Clean JSON alerts (direction / level / trigger) — wire it straight into your automation.
⏱️ Timeframe notes — single-timeframe and scale-free. Every threshold is measured in ATR or as an intra-bar ratio, so it ports across instruments and timeframes with zero rescaling. Defaults are tuned on H1 and carry to M15 unchanged — comparable signal frequency and reclaim quality on both. On H4 and above the setup is rarer by nature; drop Pivot Left/Right to 3 if you want more events there. Read every signal as liquidity-location context, not a standalone entry — pair it with your structure read (or Confluence Context, regime/confluence indicator on my profile) for direction. 🧭
📈 How to use it — the tool tells you where the market just swept liquidity and rejected. Stack it with structure.
Built to one standard: still useful after it's been on your chart for a while. Indicator
Liquidity Levels, Sweeps & Grabs | Falcon AIPrice is constantly hunting liquidity — the pools of stop orders that sit just beyond obvious highs and lows. This free tool draws the four levels where that liquidity rests, then flags the exact bar each one gets taken, so you see stop-runs as they happen instead of after the move.
THE LEVELS IT DRAWS
• Previous Day High / Low (PDH / PDL)
• Previous Week High / Low (PWH / PWL)
Calculated from the last COMPLETED day and week and fixed for the whole period — non-repainting.
TWO WAYS LIQUIDITY GETS TAKEN — FLAGGED SEPARATELY
• Sweep (triangle) — a multi-candle event. Price runs beyond a level, can hover or consolidate there, then closes back through it. The classic stop-run that often front-runs a reversal.
• Grab (diamond) — a single-candle event. One candle wicks sharply beyond the level and closes back inside with a small body (a doji-like rejection). A fast, one-bar liquidity raid.
The two are mutually exclusive per level: a slow multi-candle reversal reads as a sweep; a one-bar wick rejection reads as a grab.
ALERTS
Four ready-to-use alerts — high sweep, low sweep, high grab, low grab — so you're pinged the moment buy-side or sell-side liquidity is taken.
INPUTS
• Toggle each level set (day / week) and each signal type (sweeps / grabs)
• Grab sensitivity via a wick-to-body ratio (higher = stricter / more doji-like)
• Line style, colors, price labels
HOW TRADERS USE IT
Sweeping and grabbing liquidity is a core Smart-Money / ICT idea: price is pushed beyond a well-watched level to fill orders and trigger stops before reversing. Watching for a sweep or grab of PDH/PDL or PWH/PWL — especially into a higher-timeframe level or a session open — can help spot exhaustion and potential turning points. This tool marks those moments objectively; how you act on them is your call.

Intraday Liquidity Sessions [dpTrades]Intraday Liquidity Sessions
WHAT IT IS
An intraday view of session liquidity. It draws the New York, London and Tokyo sessions, and
adds an analytics layer that plain session tools do not have: it marks when a session runs the
liquidity left by its own previous instance, and reports whether each session is expanding or
compressing relative to its own recent behaviour. "Liquidity" here means the session highs and
lows that resting orders sit against, not a volume heatmap.
WHY THESE COMPONENTS BELONG TOGETHER
Session boxes on their own only tell you when a session happened. The information a trader
actually needs is what that session is doing relative to what the same session normally does,
and whether it has taken out the level the previous one left behind. Those two readings are
only meaningful in the context of the session they belong to, which is why the drawing layer
and the analytics layer are one script rather than two: the ranges, the averages and the sweep
detection are all computed from the same per-session state.
METHOD
Each session is tracked independently, with its own state:
- Range tracking: while a session is open, the script keeps its running high and low, and the
price at which the session opened.
- Previous-instance memory: when a session closes, its high and low are stored as the reference
for the next instance of that same session.
- Rolling average: the range of each completed session is folded into a rolling average over a
configurable number of past instances (default 20). The current session's range against that
average is what classifies it as expanding or compressing. The comparison is always a session
against itself, never against another, since Tokyo and New York are not comparable in size.
- Directional bias: measured as the current close against the session's own opening price.
- Liquidity sweep: while a session is open, price is checked against the high and the low left
by the previous instance of that same session. When it trades through one of them, the event
is marked on the chart and flagged in the table.
Session hours are timezone-aware, so the windows stay correct regardless of the exchange
timezone of the charted symbol.
HOW TO USE IT
Read the table first. A session opening expanded versus its own average usually means
participation is above normal; a compressed one often precedes a range. The bias column shows
which way that session has leaned since its open. The sweep marker tells you the previous
session's liquidity has already been taken, which is context rather than a signal.
Sessions, hours, colours and drawing style are configurable. The default set is New York,
London and Tokyo in New York time, each shown in its own colour so they are easy to tell apart.
LIMITATIONS
- Intraday timeframes only. On daily and above there are no session windows to resolve.
- While a session is still open its range, bias and stats update in real time as price moves.
They are final only once the session closes.
- The rolling average needs several completed sessions before expanding or compressing means
anything. Early in the chart history it will be unreliable.
- A liquidity sweep describes what already happened, not a prediction. It marks that a level was
taken, nothing more.
- This is a context tool. It produces no entries, no exits and no buy or sell signals.

Liquidity Sweep Hunter | AlphaScript💧 Liquidity Sweep Hunter
Liquidity Sweep Hunter maps the resting liquidity at swing highs and lows — the stop orders sitting just beyond obvious pivots — and detects when price raids it. It marks each level as resting, swept, or reclaimed, so you can see both where liquidity is waiting and when it gets taken.
💡 The idea behind it
Stop orders cluster just beyond swing highs and swing lows. Above a swing high sit the stops of short sellers and the buy orders of breakout traders — buy-side liquidity (BSL). Below a swing low sit the opposite — sell-side liquidity (SSL). Larger participants are drawn to these pools because that resting liquidity is what fills their orders. When price spikes through a level, takes the stops, and rejects back, that is a liquidity sweep — often the origin of a reversal. This tool identifies those events systematically instead of by eye.
🔍 How detection works
Levels are anchored to confirmed swing pivots (default lookback 10 bars each side). A swing high becomes a buy-side liquidity level; a swing low becomes a sell-side liquidity level. Pivots are only registered after they are fully confirmed, so levels do not repaint. Each level is drawn as a line and tagged so its state is always clear:
⇠ Resting — an unswept level. The stops are still sitting there; price may return to raid it. Tagged BSL ⇠ (above swing highs) or SSL ⇠ (below swing lows). These are potential targets.
✗ Swept — price wicked through the level but the bar closed back on the original side. The stops were taken and price rejected. Tagged ✗ BSL swept or ✗ SSL swept.
⟲ Reclaimed — price closed through the level, then on a later bar closed back across it: a failed break that reclaimed the level. Tagged ⟲ BSL reclaimed or ⟲ SSL reclaimed.
You choose the detection mode: Wick (sweeps only), Reclaim (break-and-reclaim only), or Both.
🎯 Penetration filter
An optional ATR-based filter requires price to pierce the level by a minimum multiple of ATR before an event qualifies. Because it is measured in ATR rather than fixed ticks, it means the same thing across every instrument — no re-tuning when you switch markets. Set to zero to disable.
🟠 Broken levels
In Reclaim and Both modes, a level that price closes through is kept on the chart in a distinct color and tagged while it awaits a possible reclaim — so you can see levels that failed but might still be reclaimed. These can be toggled off for a cleaner chart.
📊 Dashboard
A compact panel shows the current symbol, the number of active buy-side and sell-side levels being tracked, and the active detection mode. Theme (dark/light), size, and position are all configurable.
🎨 Customization
Full control over the look: colors for bullish/bearish events, level lines, and broken levels; line style and width for both level lines and event lines; label text color (for readability on light or dark charts); how far pending level lines extend; and toggles for level lines, event labels, pending-level tags, and broken levels.
📈 How to use it
Watch the resting (⇠) levels as the liquidity price may be drawn toward. When a swing high is swept (✗ BSL) after an up-move, buy-side liquidity has been taken and a move down may follow; a swept swing low (✗ SSL) can signal the reverse.
Reclaim events flag failed breaks that often precede a move back in the reclaim direction. Use the tags as points of interest to combine with your own structure read, higher-timeframe bias, and risk management — the tool shows where liquidity rests and when it is taken; you decide what to do with it.
🔔 Alerts
Separate alerts for SSL sweep, BSL sweep, SSL reclaim, BSL reclaim, plus combined "Any Sweep" and "Any Reclaim" conditions.

📌 Notes
This tool detects liquidity at swing pivots specifically — individual swing highs and lows. It is one lens on liquidity and pairs naturally with equal-high/low and session-level analysis for a fuller picture. Events are confirmed on closed bars and do not repaint intrabar. A liquidity sweep marks where stops were taken, not a guaranteed reversal — always combine with your own analysis and risk management. Indicator
