Stop Cluster Magnet Map [AGPro Series]Stop Cluster Magnet Map
🧠 Core Idea
Where are clustered stops likely sitting, and is price being pulled toward them or rejecting after a sweep?
📌 Overview / What it does
Stop Cluster Magnet Map is a rule-based liquidity and market-structure visualization tool designed to identify repeated swing-high and swing-low areas where stop orders may cluster.
The script maps upper and lower stop-cluster zones, grades their quality, tracks magnet pressure, and highlights potential sweep or rejection behavior after price interacts with those zones.
It does not predict future price direction, automate trades, or claim that any stop cluster must be taken. It only visualizes structural conditions that may deserve attention.
🎯 Purpose & Design Philosophy
This script was built to solve a common chart-reading problem: traders often talk about liquidity above highs or below lows, but many tools do not clearly separate clustered stop areas from random swing points.
The design goal is to make stop-cluster context visible at a glance without turning the chart into a noisy signal machine.
It helps traders who study price action, liquidity sweeps, equal highs, equal lows, stop hunts, and structural reaction zones.
⚡ Why This Script Is Different
Most tools mark every swing high or swing low as if each level has the same importance.
This script does NOT treat every pivot as meaningful liquidity.
Instead, it looks for repeated nearby swing points, builds a mapped stop-cluster zone, grades the cluster, tracks magnet pressure, and separates sweep behavior from simple proximity.
⚙️ Methodology
1. Context Detection
The script detects confirmed swing highs and swing lows using a configurable pivot length.
2. Reference Mapping
Nearby repeated swing highs are grouped into an upper stop cluster, while nearby repeated swing lows are grouped into a lower stop cluster.
3. Reaction Evaluation
The script evaluates distance, recency, number of touches, sweep events, and post-sweep close behavior.
4. Visual Output
The active stop-cluster zones, magnet rail, right-side tags, event labels, and decision panel are displayed using a clean AGPro visual hierarchy.
🗺️ How to Read the Chart
Zones represent areas where repeated highs or lows have created potential clustered stops.
Labels identify important events such as upper stops, lower stops, magnet pressure, and sweep behavior.
Colors follow the AGPro visual language: teal for lower-side or recovery-oriented context, pink for upper-side or risk-oriented context, yellow for neutral attention, and indigo for magnet reference.
The panel summarizes the current magnet state, score, upper/lower cluster quality, cluster prices, sweep risk, next context, and active timeframe.
🚦 Signals & States
• UPPER STOPS → repeated swing highs have formed a valid upper stop cluster
• LOWER STOPS → repeated swing lows have formed a valid lower stop cluster
• UPSIDE MAGNET → price is near a higher-quality upper stop cluster
• DOWNSIDE MAGNET → price is near a higher-quality lower stop cluster
• UPPER SWEEP → price moved above the upper cluster and closed back inside
• LOWER SWEEP → price moved below the lower cluster and closed back inside
• BALANCED CLUSTERS → both upper and lower clusters are active, with no dominant side
🔔 Alerts Logic
Alerts can trigger when a new upper or lower stop cluster becomes valid, when price sweeps a stop cluster and closes back inside, or when the dominant magnet side changes.
These alerts are attention markers only. They are not buy or sell signals.
🧩 Confluence Logic (Optional)
The context becomes stronger when a valid stop cluster has multiple touches, remains recent, price approaches the cluster, and sweep behavior appears with a close back inside the mapped zone.
Cluster quality plus proximity plus reaction behavior creates a stronger read than any single condition alone.
📊 When to Use
• Around equal highs or equal lows
• During range-bound markets where stop pools may form
• Before or after liquidity sweeps
• When price is approaching a visible cluster of prior swing points
• When evaluating whether a move is targeting external liquidity
⚠️ When NOT to Use
• In extremely illiquid markets
• During chaotic news-driven candles
• When price history is too short to build reliable clusters
• When the chart is dominated by random spikes rather than readable structure
• As a standalone entry or exit system
🎛️ Key Inputs
• Swing Pivot Length → controls how swing highs and lows are confirmed
• Cluster Validity Lookback → controls how long a cluster remains relevant
• Minimum Cluster Touches → controls how many nearby pivots are needed
• Cluster Width ATR → controls how wide each stop-cluster grouping can be
• Magnet Nearness ATR → controls how sensitive magnet proximity becomes
• Visual settings → control zones, labels, right-side tags, panel, and font sizes
🖥️ Interface & Visual Design
The interface is designed for fast chart reading.
The panel gives the current decision context. Zones show where clustered stops may sit. Labels mark key events. Right-side tags keep current levels readable without forcing the trader to inspect every candle.
The layout is intentionally clean, premium, and structured for public-chart screenshots.
🧪 Practical Usage Workflow
1. Read the panel to identify the current magnet state.
2. Check whether the upper or lower stop-cluster zone is active.
3. Watch how price behaves near the mapped cluster.
4. Evaluate whether a sweep closes back inside or continues beyond the zone.
5. Use broader market context before making any decision.
🔍 Interpretation Guidelines
A strong stop cluster does not mean price must move there.
A sweep does not automatically mean reversal.
The best interpretation comes from combining cluster quality, distance, market structure, volume behavior, volatility, and the trader's own higher-timeframe context.
🚫 What This Script Is NOT
This script is not a prediction engine.
It is not financial advice.
It is not an automated trading system.
It does not provide guaranteed signals.
It does not know where actual broker stop orders are placed.
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
The script estimates stop-cluster areas using visible chart structure only.
Different timeframes may show different clusters.
High volatility can expand zones and change quality scores quickly.
Market conditions can shift, and a previously important cluster may lose relevance over time.
🧠 Market Context Notes (Optional)
Stop clusters often matter because repeated highs and lows can become obvious reference points.
When many traders see the same level, price may react around that area, sweep it, reject from it, or continue through it.
This script is designed to make that structural pressure easier to observe.
🧾 Use Case Examples (Optional)
When price approaches an upper stop cluster with a high quality score, the trader can monitor whether the market sweeps above it and closes back inside.
When lower stops cluster beneath a range, the trader can watch whether price is being pulled toward downside liquidity or rejecting before reaching it.
🧱 System Philosophy (Advanced)
The AGPro approach focuses on structured decision support, not hype.
This script turns repeated swing references into a readable liquidity map so traders can evaluate context instead of reacting to isolated candles.
🔐 Non-Promise Statement
No script can guarantee outcomes.
Stop-cluster mapping is a contextual tool, not certainty.

Liquidity Timeframe Stack Map [AGPro Series]Liquidity Timeframe Stack Map
🧠 Core Idea
Are lower-timeframe liquidity sweeps aligned with the higher-timeframe liquidity shelf, or are they fighting the broader structure?
📌 Overview / What it does
Liquidity Timeframe Stack Map is a multi-timeframe liquidity context tool built to compare current-chart sweep behavior with higher-timeframe liquidity shelves.
The script maps the latest confirmed higher-timeframe upper and lower liquidity shelves, detects local buy-side and sell-side sweeps, evaluates wick-based reaction quality, and converts the result into a readable stack state.
It does not predict price direction, automate trades, or claim that every sweep will create a reversal. It is designed as a structured market context and visualization tool.
🎯 Purpose & Design Philosophy
This script was built to solve a common liquidity-reading problem:
A lower-timeframe sweep can look important by itself, but its meaning changes when it happens near a higher-timeframe shelf.
The goal is to help traders separate aligned liquidity reactions from isolated local noise. The script supports a context-first mindset: read the shelf, read the sweep, then judge whether the reaction is aligned or conflicting.
⚡ Why This Script Is Different
Most liquidity tools focus on detecting a sweep, stop run, equal high, or equal low.
This script does NOT treat every sweep as equally important.
Instead, it compares the local sweep against a higher-timeframe liquidity framework and classifies whether the move is a stack alignment, a stack conflict, or a neutral shelf interaction.
⚙️ Methodology
1. Higher-Timeframe Shelf Detection
The script reads confirmed pivot structure from the selected higher timeframe and builds active upper and lower liquidity shelf zones.
2. Local Sweep Detection
The chart timeframe is used as the lower-timeframe layer. Local buy-side and sell-side sweeps are detected when price takes a recent pivot level and closes back through it.
3. Reaction Evaluation
The script evaluates wick reaction quality after the sweep. Stronger wick rejection or reclaim behavior produces a higher reaction quality score.
4. Stack Classification
The script checks whether the local sweep occurred near the relevant higher-timeframe shelf. If the sweep and shelf context align, the script marks an HTF Buy Stack or HTF Sell Stack. If the sweep fights the broader shelf context, it marks a Stack Conflict.
5. Visual Output
The result is displayed through HTF shelf zones, sweep markers, stack labels, right-side tags, alerts, and a compact AG Pro panel.
🗺️ How to Read the Chart
Upper HTF Liquidity Shelf = the active higher-timeframe upper liquidity reference.
Lower HTF Liquidity Shelf = the active higher-timeframe lower liquidity reference.
Buy-Side Sweep marker = price swept a local upper liquidity reference and closed back below it.
Sell-Side Sweep marker = price swept a local lower liquidity reference and closed back above it.
HTF Buy Stack label = a sell-side sweep reacted near the lower HTF shelf with enough reaction quality.
HTF Sell Stack label = a buy-side sweep reacted near the upper HTF shelf with enough reaction quality.
Stack Conflict label = the local sweep behavior is not cleanly aligned with the broader HTF shelf context.
Panel = summarizes stack state, stack score, HTF shelves, LTF sweep state, reaction quality, next context, and invalidation reference.
🚦 Signals & States
• HTF BUY STACK → sell-side liquidity was swept near the lower higher-timeframe shelf with a qualifying reaction.
• HTF SELL STACK → buy-side liquidity was swept near the upper higher-timeframe shelf with a qualifying reaction.
• STACK CONFLICT → local sweep behavior is fighting or confusing the broader shelf context.
• LOWER SHELF → price is interacting with the lower HTF shelf area, but no full stack event is active.
• UPPER SHELF → price is interacting with the upper HTF shelf area, but no full stack event is active.
• NEUTRAL → no active shelf alignment or conflict is detected.
🔔 Alerts Logic
Alerts trigger when a new major stack condition appears.
• HTF Buy Stack Alignment → a sell-side sweep aligns with the lower higher-timeframe liquidity shelf.
• HTF Sell Stack Alignment → a buy-side sweep aligns with the upper higher-timeframe liquidity shelf.
• Liquidity Stack Conflict → the local sweep direction conflicts with the broader higher-timeframe shelf context.
• HTF Liquidity Shelf Touch → price enters either active higher-timeframe shelf zone.
Alerts are attention markers, not trade instructions.
🧩 Confluence Logic
The context becomes stronger when these elements align:
• Price is near an active higher-timeframe shelf
• Local liquidity is swept
• The candle closes back through the swept level
• Wick reaction quality is strong
• The panel state and chart label agree
When these elements do not align, the script treats the context as neutral or conflicting instead of forcing a directional interpretation.
📊 When to Use
• Multi-timeframe liquidity analysis
• Swing and intraday market preparation
• Smart-money-style structure review
• Sweep and reclaim evaluation
• Context checks before interpreting local reactions
• Markets where higher-timeframe levels matter
⚠️ When NOT to Use
• Very low-liquidity symbols
• Extremely noisy lower timeframes
• Markets with unreliable wick structure
• Situations where the selected higher timeframe is not meaningful
• Assets with large gaps or inconsistent session data
• Moments when a single local candle should not be over-interpreted
🎛️ Key Inputs
• Higher Timeframe Shelf → selects the timeframe used to build the broad liquidity shelves.
• HTF Shelf Pivot Length → controls how strict the higher-timeframe shelf structure is.
• LTF Sweep Pivot Length → controls how local sweep references are detected.
• Shelf Zone Width ATR → adjusts the visual thickness of HTF shelf zones.
• Max Shelf Width % Range → caps shelf thickness relative to the distance between the upper and lower HTF shelves, keeping the visual structure clean on wide timeframes.
• Near Shelf Distance ATR → controls how close a sweep must be to a shelf to count as aligned.
• Reaction Quality Threshold → sets the minimum wick reaction required for a strong stack event.
• Stack Score Smoothing → smooths the panel score for cleaner interpretation.
• Visual settings → control shelves, equilibrium line, sweep markers, event labels, right-side tags, and font sizes.
• Show Sweep Marker Letters → adds optional BS / SS text to local sweep markers. The default publication view keeps this disabled for a cleaner chart.
• Event Label Mode → Premium labels only strong HTF stack alignments. Detailed also labels stack conflicts.
• Adaptive Label Layout → automatically shortens and separates shelf labels when higher timeframes compress the HTF shelf cluster.
• Event Label Offset ATR → moves stack event labels farther from candles and shelf-center labels. HTF Sell Stack labels are pushed above the upper shelf zone, while HTF Buy Stack labels are pushed below the lower shelf zone to reduce overlap on publication screenshots.
• Right-side tags use adaptive positioning so the STACK tag avoids crowding the HTF UPPER and HTF LOWER tags when price is near a shelf.
🖥️ Interface & Visual Design
The interface is built around a clear visual hierarchy:
HTF shelves show the broader liquidity map.
Sweep markers show local liquidity events.
Stack labels show important alignment or conflict moments.
The AG Pro panel compresses the current state into a fast, readable decision-support summary.
🧪 Practical Usage Workflow
1. Start with the panel state.
2. Check where price is relative to the HTF upper and lower shelves.
3. Look for a recent buy-side or sell-side sweep marker.
4. Read the event label only if the sweep happened near the relevant shelf.
5. Use Reaction Q and Stack Score to judge whether the context is clean or weak.
6. Interpret the result inside the broader market structure.
🔍 Interpretation Guidelines
HTF Buy Stack does not mean price must go up. It means a sell-side sweep reacted near a lower higher-timeframe shelf with enough quality to deserve attention.
HTF Sell Stack does not mean price must go down. It means a buy-side sweep reacted near an upper higher-timeframe shelf with enough quality to deserve attention.
Stack Conflict is often more useful as a warning than as a signal. It tells the trader that the local sweep and broader shelf context are not cleanly aligned.
🚫 What This Script Is NOT
This script is not a prediction engine.
It is not financial advice.
It is not an auto-trading system.
It does not provide guaranteed entry or exit signals.
It does not claim that every liquidity sweep will reverse.
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
Higher-timeframe pivot shelves are confirmed after structure develops, so they are not instant future levels.
Different chart timeframes may create different local sweep readings.
Very volatile markets may generate fast shelf touches without clean reactions.
Low-liquidity symbols may produce misleading wick behavior.
The selected higher timeframe should match the trader’s actual analysis horizon.
🧠 Market Context Notes
Liquidity analysis is strongest when local behavior is interpreted inside a broader structure.
A sweep near a meaningful higher-timeframe shelf can carry more information than a random sweep in the middle of a range.
This script is designed to make that distinction visible.
🧾 Use Case Examples
When price sweeps local sell-side liquidity near the lower HTF shelf and closes back above the swept level, the script may mark HTF BUY STACK if reaction quality is strong enough.
When price sweeps local buy-side liquidity near the upper HTF shelf and closes back below the swept level, the script may mark HTF SELL STACK if reaction quality is strong enough.
When a local sweep appears away from the relevant higher-timeframe shelf, the script may classify the move as neutral or conflicting.
🧱 System Philosophy
The script follows a context-first AGPro approach:
Structure first.
Liquidity second.
Reaction third.
Decision support last.
It is designed to reduce isolated signal thinking and encourage multi-timeframe interpretation.
🔐 Non-Promise Statement
No script can guarantee outcomes.
No shelf, sweep, score, or label should be treated as certainty.
The output should always be combined with broader market context and personal risk rules.
📉 Risk Disclosure
Trading involves risk.
Markets can move against any interpretation.
This script is for educational and analytical purposes only.
Users are fully responsible for their own decisions.
📚 Educational Note
Use this script to study how lower-timeframe liquidity behavior changes when it is read against higher-timeframe structure.

Pymander's EZ VWAPPymander's EZ VWAP
Standard VWAP indicators are great, but let’s be honest—they can be a bit "static." They show you where the price is relative to an average, but they don't tell you the story of the price action. That’s why I built EZ VWAP.
This isn't just a line on your chart; it’s a complete decision-making system designed to help you distinguish between a healthy trend and a trap.
What makes EZ VWAP stand out?
Most VWAPs just give you ±1, ±2, and ±3 standard deviations and call it a day. EZ VWAP is smarter. It classifies the market into logical zones:
The Fair Value Zone (±0.5σ): This is the "Chop Zone." If price is hanging out here, there’s no clear edge. We stay patient.
The Extension Zone (±1σ to ±2σ): This is where the magic happens for mean reversion.
The Exhaustion Zone (Beyond ±3σ): The "Danger Zone" where trends either blow off or reverse violently.
🛠️ Key Features You Won't Find in a Basic VWAP:
Acceptance vs. Rejection Logic: The biggest VWAP trap is shorting a "stretch" only for the price to keep mooning. Our Sweep + Reclaim signals only trigger when the price fails to hold above a band. It asks: "Did price accept the new high, or did it reject it?"
Momentum Dashboard: A quick-glance table in the corner tells you if the VWAP slope is Accelerating (momentum is expanding) or Decelerating (trend is weakening).
Dynamic Slope Coloring: The VWAP line itself changes color based on its "speed." Bright colors for strong trends, and neutral colors for weakening moves—perfect for timing your entries.
Three Modes in One: Whether you want a standard Session reset, a specific Anchored point (like a news event), or a Rolling window for a more responsive feel, we’ve got you covered.
Tailored Entries: Choose between Aggressive, Balanced, or Conservative entry models to match your personal risk tolerance.
How it helps you:
EZ VWAP stops you from "catching falling knives" by waiting for price to actually reclaim a level before signaling an entry. It helps you stay out of the chop and focus on the high-probability "stretch" areas where the big moves happen.
I’d love to hear how it’s working for you! If you have ideas for new features or tweaks, drop some feedback in the comments.
Wishing you all tons of luck and many, many green days!
-Pymander Indicator
Market Sessions [Crypto Imperija]Market Sessions is a clean session-mapping indicator designed for crypto traders who want to better understand how price behaves during different parts of the trading day.
The indicator highlights the main market sessions directly on the chart using customizable boxes, session names, session times, completed session high/low levels, sweep detection, reclaim detection and alerts.
It is especially useful for traders who work with liquidity concepts, session ranges, intraday market structure, and time-based trading analysis.
Default Sessions:
• Asian Session: 02:00 - 10:00 UTC;
• London Session: 09:00 - 17:30 UTC;
• New York Session: 16:30 - 23:00 UTC;
• Closed / Low Activity Session: 23:00 - 02:00 UTC.
1. Session Boxes
The indicator draws visual boxes around each selected session. Each box shows the full price range created during that session, including the session high and session low.
This helps traders quickly see:
• Where price ranged during a specific session;
• Which session created the most volatility;
• Whether price is expanding or consolidating;
• How the current session reacts to previous session ranges.
2. Session Names and Times
Each session box can display the session name and session time directly on the chart.
This makes it easier to follow the trading day without constantly checking the clock, especially when analyzing multiple timeframes or trading crypto markets that run 24/7.
3. Session High / Low Levels, Sweeps and Reclaims
After each session finishes, the indicator automatically draws the completed session high and low as horizontal levels. These levels are often important because previous session highs and lows can act as key liquidity areas. Traders commonly watch them to see whether price rejects from them, breaks through them, sweeps them, or reclaims them.
Examples of completed session levels:
• Asian High / Asian Low;
• London High / London Low;
• New York High / New York Low;
• Closed Session High / Closed Session Low.
The indicator detects two important events around these levels:
• Session Sweep:
A high sweep is detected when the current candle high reaches or moves above a completed session high.
A low sweep is detected when the current candle low reaches or moves below a completed session low.
• Session Reclaim:
After a sweep, the indicator watches the candle close.
If a completed session high is swept and price closes back below that high, it is considered a reclaim.
If a completed session low is swept and price closes back above that low, it is considered a reclaim.
This helps traders identify when price has interacted with a previous session liquidity level and whether the move continued or failed after the sweep.
4. Mitigated Levels
When a session level is swept, the trader can choose whether to remove it from the chart or keep it visible as a faded/dotted mitigated level.
This gives more control over chart cleanliness:
• Hide mitigated levels for a cleaner chart;
• Show mitigated levels to study how price reacts after liquidity is taken.
5. Customizable Visual Settings
The indicator includes multiple customization options:
• Show or hide session boxes;
• Show or hide session names;
• Show or hide completed session high/low levels;
• Show or hide price values on labels;
• Choose label size;
• Choose session level line style;
• Choose line width;
• Choose box border style;
• Choose box border width;
• Customize each session color;
• Hide weekend sessions.
This makes the indicator flexible for different trading styles, chart layouts, and visual preferences.
6. Alerts
The indicator includes alert conditions for:
• Session Sweep
• Session Sweep Reclaim
The alert messages can include the ticker, timeframe, swept level, price, and reclaim direction.
Important Notes:
This indicator does not predict price direction. It is a visual and alert-based tool that helps traders identify session ranges, completed session highs/lows, sweeps, and reclaims. A sweep does not guarantee a reversal, and a reclaim does not guarantee continuation in the opposite direction. These events should always be analyzed together with market structure, candle closes, volatility, volume, risk management, and a complete trading plan.
Trading involves risk. This indicator is for educational and analytical purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Indicator
Liquidity Pool Detector [EXCAVO]Equal High/Low Cluster Detection with Sweep Identification and Period Reference Levels
The Liquidity Pool Detector identifies where resting orders accumulate near swing
levels by detecting equal highs and equal lows using swing pivot analysis with ATR-based
tolerance. When price wicks through a cluster level and closes back inside, the indicator
marks a sweep - the moment orders at that level were filled and price reversed direction.
This is not a basic pivot-high/low indicator. The cluster-merging logic groups nearby
pivots into unified levels with touch counts, and the sweep filter distinguishes between
a genuine zone test and a breakout continuation.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ HOW TO USE
Step 1 → Add the indicator to the price chart. Red solid lines appear above
price (equal highs clusters) and blue solid lines appear below price
(equal lows clusters). Previous day and week H/L reference levels
appear as slightly thicker dotted lines.
Step 2 → Watch for sweep markers. "Highs Swept" appears on a bar where price
wicked above an equal-highs cluster and closed back below it. "Lows
Swept" appears below a bar where price wicked below equal lows and
closed above. These bars indicate price tested and reversed from a cluster level.
Step 3 → Read the touch count on each cluster label. "Highs ×3" means three
swing highs formed at approximately the same level - a stronger cluster
with a stronger level formed by more historical touches.
Step 4 → Check the dashboard. Dist to High and Dist to Low show how many ATR
units separate current price from the nearest cluster above and below.
Values below 1.0 ATR highlight in orange - price is close to a level.
Nearest High and Nearest Low show the exact price of those levels.
Step 5 → Set up sweep alerts to receive notifications on bar close when a
cluster level is tested and rejected. Use JSON Alerts for bot integration.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ HOW IT CALCULATES
◆ Swing Pivot Detection
The indicator uses ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() with a configurable Swing Length
(default 3). A pivot high is confirmed when the bar's high is the highest point among
the surrounding N bars on each side - requiring N bars to the left and N bars to the
right, so detection occurs N bars after the actual pivot forms. This lag ensures the
pivot is fully confirmed and the value never changes after the bar closes. Lower Swing
Length values (2-3) suit intraday timeframes; higher values (5) suit daily charts.
◆ Cluster Merging (ATR Tolerance)
When a new confirmed pivot is detected, the indicator compares it against all existing
clusters of the same type. If the distance between the new pivot and an existing cluster
level is within the Equal Tolerance threshold (default 0.5 x ATR), the pivots are merged:
the cluster level is updated to the weighted average of all touches, and the touch count
increments. If no nearby cluster exists and the cluster limit has not been reached, a new
cluster is created at that price level. This approach prevents visual noise from minor
price variations between otherwise equal levels.
◆ Sweep Detection
On each confirmed bar close, every active cluster is checked against two conditions.
For equal-highs clusters: if the bar's high exceeded the cluster level AND the close is
below the cluster level, a sweep is registered - price moved through the zone of resting
orders and reversed. For equal-lows clusters: if the bar's low was below the cluster level
AND the close is above it, a sweep is registered. A close through the level without
reversal (close >= highs cluster, or close <= lows cluster) is treated as a breakout:
the cluster is invalidated and removed without a sweep marker.
◆ Period Reference Levels
Previous Day High/Low and Previous Week High/Low are fetched using request.security()
with a confirmed-bar offset (high / low with barmerge.lookahead_on). These levels
are included in the Nearest High and Nearest Low dashboard calculations alongside the
detected equal-high/low clusters.
◆ Non-Repainting Design
All cluster additions, sweep detections, and invalidations are gated on
barstate.isconfirmed. No cluster is created and no sweep marker is placed until the bar
closes. Pivot detection uses a right-bar offset that confirms the pivot on a fully closed
bar. No value changes after a bar is confirmed.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
◆ ATR-Based Cluster Tolerance
Most equal-high/low detectors use a fixed pip or percentage threshold that fails across
different instruments and timeframes. Using ATR as the tolerance baseline means the same
settings work on BTCUSD hourly (high ATR) and EURUSD daily (low ATR) without manual
recalibration. The tolerance adapts to current market conditions automatically.
◆ Cluster Merging with Touch Count
Instead of drawing a separate line for every swing pivot, nearby pivots are merged into a
single cluster with an incrementing touch count. A cluster labeled "Highs ×3" represents
three independent swing highs at the same level - a significantly stronger zone than a
single untested level. The line and label update in place as new touches are added.
◆ Sweep vs Breakout Distinction
The indicator explicitly separates sweep bars (wick through, close back inside) from
breakout bars (close through the level). A sweep generates a "Highs Swept" or "Lows
Swept" marker and an alert. A breakout silently removes the cluster. This distinction
matters: sweeps are potential reversal setups; breakouts confirm continuation.
◆ Period Levels as Part of the Analysis
Previous Day and Week H/L are integrated into the same framework as the equal-high/low
clusters. They appear in the Nearest High/Low dashboard calculation and use the same color
scheme as cluster lines, making them immediately readable alongside the dynamically
detected clusters.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ DASHBOARD
Compact panel showing current conditions:
Dist to High - distance from current price to nearest cluster above, in ATR units; turns orange below 1.0 ATR
Dist to Low - distance from current price to nearest cluster below, in ATR units; turns orange below 1.0 ATR

Liquidity Pools Pro [WillyAlgoTrader]💧 Liquidity Pools Pro is a fully free overlay indicator that automatically detects liquidity zones (equal highs and equal lows), scores them on a 4-factor strength model, catches sweeps (liquidity grabs) with reversal confirmation, and instantly delivers a complete trade plan: entry, stop-loss, three take-profits, and automatic break-even on TP1.
It unifies into a single coherent engine what traders usually have to assemble from 5–7 separate scripts: an adaptive pivot detector, a 4-factor pool scoring system (touches + recency + volume + HTF), sweep detection with close-back confirmation, an ATR-based risk calculator, risk presets, and an informative dashboard.
Works on any instrument (BTC, EURUSD, stocks, indices, futures) and any timeframe without retuning — every threshold is scaled through ATR.
🧩 WHY THESE COMPONENTS WORK TOGETHER
A simple pivot detector just plots dots. A simple sweep signal fires on every wick. A plain ATR stop-loss ignores context. Individually these are noise. Combined, they form a complete mechanism for identifying zones where smart money harvests liquidity, and trading the reversal from them.
Integration chain:
Adaptive Pivot Detection → ATR-based Equality Tolerance → Pool Matching & Clustering → 4-Factor Strength Scoring → HTF Confluence Boost → Sweep Detection (wick + close-back) → Risk Engine (SL/TP/BE) → Position Lock + State Machine → Dashboard + Alerts
— The pivot detector adapts to volatility: length grows when ATR is high (less noise on crypto) and shrinks when ATR is low (faster reaction on forex).
— Tolerance in ATR units lets the engine treat highs/lows as "equal" on any instrument — no manual tick configuration.
— Matching clusters pivots into pools (multiple touches at one zone = thicker liquidity).
— Scoring filters out weak pools and highlights exactly the ones price returns to for stop-runs.
— HTF Confluence adds +20 to strength when a pivot on the higher timeframe aligns — a filter against lower-timeframe traps.
— Sweep is identified as a wick beyond the level + close back inside (classic failed breakout / liquidity grab).
— The risk engine builds a complete trade plan for each signal and trails the stop to break-even after TP1.
— Position Lock prevents opposite signals from silently overwriting the SL/TP of an open position.
Remove any one link and the chain breaks. Sweeps without scoring = noise. Scoring without sweeps = pretty boxes that never trigger. Risk engine without position lock = silent overwrite of an open trade. This pipeline solves all three problems.
🔍 WHAT MAKES IT ORIGINAL
1️⃣ Adaptive Pivot Length — pivot length that adjusts itself to the market.
Most indicators use a fixed pivot length (5, 10, 20). That works on one timeframe of one instrument — and breaks on anything else.
Here the length is computed dynamically:
— volRatio = ATR(14) / ATR(50)
— adaptiveLen = round( clamp( 10 / max(0.5, volRatio), 4, 16 ) )
In high-volatility regimes (volRatio > 1) length shrinks to 4–6 bars — the indicator reacts faster. In low-volatility regimes (volRatio < 1) length grows to 14–16 bars — small noise is filtered out. Can be disabled and set manually (default 8 when Adaptive is OFF).
2️⃣ ATR Equality Tolerance — scale-invariant definition of "equal" levels.
Two pivots are treated as touches of the same liquidity zone if the distance between them ≤ ATR × tolerance (default 0.25).
— 0.15 = strict (tight pools, fewer matches)
— 0.25 = balanced (recommended)
— 0.50 = loose (wider pools, more matches)
This solves a fundamental problem: on BTCUSD, "equal within $50" is normal; on EURUSD the same value is huge. ATR-based tolerance gives one setting that works across all instruments.
3️⃣ 4-factor Strength Score — pool weight on a 0–100 scale.
Every pool is scored as the sum of four components, clamped to 0–100:
— 🎯 Touches (up to 35 points) : (touchCount − 1) × 9, capped at 35. One pivot = 0, two = 9, three = 18, four = 27, five+ = 35.
— ⏳ Recency (up to 35 points) : 35 × 0.5^(ageBars / halfLife). Fresh pool = 35, after one half-life = 17.5, after two = 8.75. Default halfLife = 150 bars.
— 📊 Volume (up to 20 points) : log(max(1, cumVol / median)) × 8, capped at 20. Accumulated on every bar that touches the zone — not just the pivot bar.
— 🔭 HTF Confluence (+20 bonus) : if a higher-timeframe pivot exists within tolerance × 1.5 — +20 added to the total.
Examples:
— Fresh 1-touch pool, no volume, no HTF: 0 + 35 + 0 + 0 = 35
— Fresh 2-touch pool: 9 + 35 + 0 + 0 = 44
— Fresh 3-touch pool with 2× median volume: 18 + 35 + 5.5 + 0 = 58.5
— Old (1 half-life) 2-touch pool: 9 + 17.5 + 0 + 0 = 26.5
4️⃣ Sweep Detection with close-back confirmation — real liquidity grabs, not false wicks.
Pool state transitions follow strict logic:
— STATE_ACTIVE → STATE_SWEPT: wick pierced the level but bar closed beyond it (this is a breakout, not a reversal)
— STATE_ACTIVE → STATE_MITIGATED: wick pierced AND bar closed back inside (real liquidity sweep)
The default signal (Require Body Reversal = ON) only fires on MITIGATED. This is classic SMC "fakeout → reversal" logic. Disable it and any wick sweep will fire (more aggressive, more noise).
5️⃣ Volume-at-Level Accumulation — real volume at the level, not just at the pivot.
Most indicators count volume only on the pivot bar. That's misleading — true liquidity accumulates across all the touches.
Here, on every confirmed bar the engine checks for a zone touch (high or low inside levelBot–levelTop), and if found, adds the bar's volume to the pool's cumVol. Across 40 active pools this is O(P) per bar — fast.
6️⃣ HTF Confluence Engine — higher-timeframe pivots as a filter.
When enabled, pivots from the configured HTF (default 4H) are requested via request.security with lookahead_on on a closed bar (no repaint). If a pool aligns with an HTF pivot within tolerance × 1.5 — +20 is added to its score.
Used to filter signals: HTF-confluent pools cross the strength threshold faster.
7️⃣ 5 Risk Presets + Custom — ready-made SL/TP per trading style.
— Conservative: SL 2.5×ATR, TP 1R/2R/4R
— Balanced: SL 1.5×ATR, TP 1R/2R/3R (default)
— Aggressive: SL 1.0×ATR, TP 1.5R/2.5R/4R
— Scalping: SL 0.8×ATR, TP 0.8R/1.5R/2R
— Custom: manual multipliers
Calculation:
— slDistance = ATR(14) × slMult
— entry = close on the signal bar
— SL = entry ∓ slDistance
— TP1/2/3 = entry ± slDistance × tpMult
8️⃣ Automatic Break-Even after TP1 — stop trails to entry on its own.
After TP1 is touched (and SL didn't fire on the same bar), the active SL is moved to entry. From that point on, any pullback to entry = break-even exit. TP2/TP3 logic continues to track.
Edge case is handled: if both TP1 and SL fire on the same bar, the stop is evaluated against the ORIGINAL value (effectiveSL captured before the BE update). No "magic" loss-saving.
9️⃣ Position Lock — protection against silent trade overwrites.
While a trade is active (activeDir ≠ 0), new signals are blocked. Exception: if the current bar is closing the position (SL or TP3 hit), it's treated as "closing now" and an opposite signal is allowed through.
Without this protection, a fresh signal would silently overwrite the SL/TP of an open position — critical for both manual trading and webhook-based autotrading.
🔟 Pro-style visuals with adaptive contrast.
— Liquidity zones: colored boxes with transparency tied to strength (transparency = 88 − strength × 0.33)
— Mid-line: dotted line through the center of each zone
— Pool labels: SSL/BSL × touch count volume
— SL: solid red line (dims when BE activates)
— Entry: dotted blue
— TP1/2/3: dashed green (turn cyan + ✓ when hit)
— Themes: Auto/Dark/Light with WCAG AA contrast on every background
1️⃣1️⃣ Full alert suite for autotrading — JSON or plain text.
Every signal and trade event triggers alert() in one of two formats:
— Plain text: "🟢 SWEEP BUY | TICKER | TF | Price: X | Pool: 58/100 | SL: ... | TP1: ... | TP2: ... | TP3: ... | R:R: 1.0"
— JSON for webhooks: {"action":"buy","ticker":...,"tf":...,"price":...,"sl":...,"tp1":...,"tp2":...,"tp3":...,"rr":...,"pool_strength":...}
All alerts use alert.freq_once_per_bar_close (no intra-bar duplicates).
⚙️ HOW IT WORKS — CALCULATION FLOW
Step 1 — Pivot detection: on each bar, ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow are evaluated with the dynamic left length (adaptiveLen) and the configured right confirmation.
Step 2 — Matching: each new pivot is compared against all active pools of the same type (high/low). If distance ≤ tolerance AND age ≤ maxLookback, it's added as a new touch (level is recalculated as a weighted average).
Step 3 — Pool creation: if no match is found, a new pool is created with touchCount = 1 and the current volume. The HTF bonus is applied if confluent.
Step 4 — Volume accumulation: on each confirmed bar, if high or low touches an active zone, the bar's volume is added to that pool's cumVol.
Step 5 — Strength compute: on demand (lazy), the final strength is calculated using the 4-factor formula.
Step 6 — Sweep check: for every active pool, wickSweep (wick beyond the level) and closeBack (close back inside) are evaluated. State becomes MITIGATED if both true; SWEPT if only wickSweep.
Step 7 — Signal generation: if pool strength ≥ minStrengthSignal AND mitigation is confirmed (or Body Reversal is OFF) AND signals are enabled — a BUY/SELL fires.
Step 8 — Risk setup: on a confirmed signal, entry/SL/TP1/TP2/TP3 are constructed, position lock is engaged, and lines + labels are drawn.
Step 9 — Trade tracking: every bar, SL/TP1/TP2/TP3 hits are evaluated with same-bar-misfire protection (justOpened flag).
Step 10 — Break-even: on TP1 first touch (without simultaneous SL hit), SL is moved to entry, the original SL line dims, and the ENTRY label gets a "→ SL (BE)" suffix.
Step 11 — Auto-reset: on SL hit or TP3 hit, all trade-state variables reset, lines are deleted, position = FLAT.
Step 12 — Pruning: when active pools > maxActivePools (default 40), the oldest swept pool is removed first, then the weakest active pool.
📖 HOW TO USE — STEP-BY-STEP FOR NEWCOMERS
🎯 Quick start (5 minutes):
1. Add the indicator to any instrument and any timeframe.
2. Wait 50–100 bars for the warmup period — the indicator needs to accumulate ATR and pivot history.
3. Keep the dashboard ON (default position: Top Right) — it shows how many pools are tracked.
4. Pick a Risk Preset for your style: Scalping for M1–M5, Balanced for M15–H1, Conservative for H4–D1.
5. Create an alert: right-click on the chart → Add alert → Condition: Liquidity Pools Pro → Any alert() function call → Frequency: Once per bar close.
👁️ Reading the chart:
— 🔴 Red box = Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) = equal highs where long stops sit. Price tends to wick into them to harvest stops.
— 🟢 Green box = Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) = equal lows where short stops sit.
— 🔢 Number in brackets = pool strength, 0–100. Higher = thicker liquidity.
— ✖ ×3, ×4 = number of touches at this zone. More touches = more reliable.
— 📊 2.5M, 850K = cumulative volume traded at the level.
— ⚪ Dimmed gray box = swept or mitigated pool (already triggered).
— 🟢 "Long" below the bar = buy signal (BSL sweep + reversal).
— 🔴 "Short" above the bar = sell signal (SSL sweep + reversal).
— 🔵 Blue dotted line = ENTRY.
— 🔴 Red solid line = SL (stop-loss).
— 🟢 Green dashed lines = TP1/TP2/TP3. Cyan with ✓ = already hit.
— 🟠 Amber ENTRY label with "→ SL (BE)" = stop has been moved to break-even.
📊 Dashboard fields:
— Symbol / TF: current instrument and timeframe.
— Pivot Len: pivot length (with "(adapt)" tag when Adaptive is ON).
— Active Pools: total active pools and side breakdown (↑ highs, ↓ lows).
— Strong SSL ↑ / Strong BSL ↓: price and strength of the strongest pool on each side.
— Nearest Above / Below: pools closest to current price.
— Stats: Mit:N Sig:M/T — number of mitigations, signals, total pools. If Sig = 0 — lower the sensitivity (see Tuning).
— Position: current trade state (LONG/SHORT/FLAT).
— SL / TP1 / TP2 / TP3: levels of the active trade. ✓ = hit. "BE @" = stop at break-even.
— Plan R:R: TP1 multiplier (1.0R, 1.5R, 2.0R, etc.).
— Risk %: percent risk from entry to SL.
🔧 Tuning guide — when something feels off:
— Too few signals (Stats Sig: 0/N): lower Min Pool Strength for Signal from 25 to 15. Or disable Require Body Reversal — pure wick sweeps will fire.
— Too many signals, lots of noise: raise Min Pool Strength to 40 (only 2-touch pools) or 60 (only strong multi-touch with volume). Enable HTF Confluence.
— Too many zones, chart is crowded: raise Min Strength to Display to 30–40 — weak pools will be hidden but still tracked internally.
— Zones too narrow, false equality: increase Equality Tolerance from 0.25 to 0.40.
— Zones too wide, catching everything: decrease Equality Tolerance to 0.15.
— Stops getting hit too often: switch from Balanced to Conservative (SL 2.5×ATR instead of 1.5×ATR).
— Signals appear but no position opens: a trade is already active (Position Lock). Check the Position row in the dashboard.
— Strange scoring on forex: disable Volume-Weighted Strength (forex often lacks reliable volume data).
💡 TRADING IDEAS
— Manual trading on signals: only take trades where pool strength ≥ 50 and HTF Confluence is enabled.
— Zones only, no signals: disable Enable Sweep Signals and use the indicator as a pure liquidity map for manual setups.
— Scalping setup: preset Scalping + M1–M5 + Min Strength 15 + Adaptive Pivot ON.
— Swing setup: preset Conservative + H4–D1 + Min Strength 50 + HTF Confluence ON (Daily HTF).
— Webhook autotrading: enable Webhook JSON Format + alert.freq_once_per_bar_close + connect a bot to the JSON payload.
— Confluence with other indicators: combine signals with a trend filter (EMA50, SuperTrend) — only longs above EMA50, only shorts below.

— 🛡️ BREAK-EVEN — stop moved to entry
All alerts support both plain text and JSON webhook formats. All fire on alert.freq_once_per_bar_close — no intra-bar duplicates and no repaint.
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES
— 🚫 No repainting. Signals are generated only on barstate.isconfirmed (closed bar). Pivots are confirmed with a right window of rightConfirmInput bars (default 2) — meaning the actual swing point is in the past by N bars, but the indicator does not redraw already-drawn pools. HTF data via request.security uses lookahead_on on the offset bar — a standard non-repainting technique.
— 📐 Warmup period: the first 50+ bars (max(50, atrLenRisk + 10)) the indicator does not generate signals — it accumulates ATR and pivot history.
— ⚖️ Position Lock is not absolute against opposite signals: if the active trade closes on the current bar (SL or TP3 hit), an opposite signal will pass. This is by design — instant two-way blocking is impossible.
— 📊 Volume factor is optional: on forex instruments without reliable volume, disable Volume-Weighted Strength.
— 🛠️ This is an analysis tool, not a trading bot. The indicator detects liquidity zones, scores them, identifies sweeps, and proposes a trade plan — but the decision to open a position is yours. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Test on demo before trading live.
— 🌐 Universal compatibility: works on any instrument (crypto, forex, stocks, indices, futures) and any timeframe (M1 → M).

Volume Trap Reversal Planner [AGPro Series]Volume Trap Reversal Planner
🧠 Core Idea
Did a volume spike trap one side of the market and reverse with enough confirmation to deserve attention?
📌 Overview / What it does
Volume Trap Reversal Planner is a chart-first reversal planning tool built around high-volume trap behavior.
Instead of treating every volume spike or wick sweep as a reversal signal, the script checks whether price expands through a recent reference, prints unusual relative volume, fails to hold the move, recovers back through the reference, and then confirms with a follow-through candle.
The output includes volume trap pockets, reclaim rails, risk edges, target-room bands, compact event labels, alerts, and a clean AGPro decision panel. It does not predict price, automate trades, or claim that every trap will reverse.
🎯 Purpose & Design Philosophy
The script was built for traders who want to separate meaningful high-volume trap events from ordinary noisy spikes.
Many reversal tools focus only on a wick, a candle pattern, or a support/resistance touch. This planner focuses on the decision layer after a volume trap forms: whether the trap is confirmed, where the risk edge sits, where target-room review begins, and what the next action state should be.
The design supports a structured review mindset: identify the trap, wait for confirmation, monitor the risk edge, and read the context through a 0-100 score instead of reacting to a single candle.
⚡ Why This Script Is Different
Most tools focus on volume spikes as standalone events or classify every sweep as a reversal attempt.
This script does NOT operate as a generic stop-run scanner, a broad liquidity sweep map, or a simple volume climax labeler.
Instead, it combines relative volume, wick sweep behavior, close recovery, confirmation candle quality, follow-through, risk edge placement, and target-room context into one planner-style reversal model.
⚙️ Methodology
1. Context Detection
The script builds a rolling high/low reference range and watches for unusual volume expansion near those references.
2. Trap Mapping
When price sweeps beyond the reference with elevated volume and recovers back inside, the script maps the volume trap pocket.
3. Reversal Evaluation
The planner evaluates wick quality, recovery strength, confirmation candle structure, follow-through distance, and the active risk edge.
4. Visual Output
The result is translated into a 0-100 reversal score, a next-action state, on-chart labels, risk/target guides, and a compact AGPro panel.
🗺️ How to Read the Chart
Zones = volume trap pockets created by a high-volume sweep and recovery.
Labels = trap watch, reversal ready, trap failed, or target review states.
Colors = bull-side reversals use teal, bear-side reversals use pink, watch states use amber, and review/target context uses indigo.
Panel = current trap side, volume spike multiple, reversal score, risk edge, and next action.
🚦 Signals & States
• VOL TRAP WATCH → a high-volume trap candidate formed and needs confirmation.
• REVERSAL READY → the trap received confirmation and reached the required score.
• TRAP FAILED → price closed beyond the risk edge and the active trap context weakened.
• TARGET REVIEW → price reached the target-room review band for the active plan.
🔔 Alerts Logic
Alerts trigger when a volume trap watch appears, when reversal confirmation reaches the required score, when the active trap fails through the risk edge, or when price reaches the target-room review band.
Alerts are attention markers only. They are not trade instructions.
🧩 Confluence Logic
The context becomes stronger when volume spike quality, wick sweep behavior, close recovery, confirmation candle structure, and follow-through align in the same direction.
The score is intentionally multi-factor so a single dramatic candle does not dominate the interpretation.
📊 When to Use
• 4H charts for the cleanest public visual balance
• Markets with reliable volume data
• High-volume reactions around recent highs or lows
• Reversal review after failed breakout or failed breakdown attempts
• Active intraday or swing charts where trap behavior is visible
⚠️ When NOT to Use
• Very low-liquidity symbols
• Markets with unreliable or missing volume data
• Extremely noisy ranges where every candle sweeps both sides
• News-driven volatility where candle structure can distort normal context
🎛️ Key Inputs
• Trap Reference Lookback → controls the rolling high/low range used for trap detection.
• Volume Spike RVOL → adjusts how much relative volume is required.
• Sensitivity → changes sweep, wick, and volume selectivity.
• Confirmation Mode → controls how strict the confirmation candle must be.
• Risk / Target Logic → controls risk edge buffers and target-room bands.
• Visual Settings → control zones, rails, labels, panel location, theme, and font sizes.
🖥️ Interface & Visual Design
The interface is built around a clean AGPro panel and chart-first visual hierarchy.
Trap pockets show where the volume trap occurred. Labels identify the current state without overcrowding the chart. Risk and target guides make the output easier to interpret as a planning tool rather than a raw signal board.
🧪 Practical Usage Workflow
1. Read the panel and check the active trap side.
2. Inspect the volume trap pocket and reclaim rail.
3. Wait for reversal confirmation instead of reacting to the spike alone.
4. Compare the current state with the risk edge and target-room band.
5. Interpret the score within broader market context.
🔍 Interpretation Guidelines
A high score means the trap structure, volume spike, recovery, and confirmation are aligned more cleanly.
A watch state means the event is still developing.
A failed state means the active trap context has weakened or invalidated according to the script's rules.
Use the output as structured context, not as a standalone decision.
🚫 What This Script Is NOT
• Not a prediction engine
• Not financial advice
• Not an auto-trading system
• Not a guaranteed reversal signal
• Not a generic liquidity sweep scanner
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
Volume quality varies by symbol, exchange, and asset class.
Different timeframes may produce different trap pockets and confirmation states.
High volatility can make traps appear and fail quickly.
The script is rule-based and cannot know news, order flow intent, execution quality, or broader discretionary context.
🧠 Market Context Notes
Volume traps often matter most when they occur at obvious participation points, such as recent highs, recent lows, failed breakouts, or failed breakdowns.
The strongest use case is not the spike itself. The strongest use case is the sequence after the spike: recovery, confirmation, risk edge, and follow-through.
🧾 Use Case Examples
When price sweeps below a recent low on elevated volume, closes back above the reference, and confirms upward within the allowed window, the planner can mark a bullish reversal context.
When price sweeps above a recent high on elevated volume, fails to hold, and confirms downward, the planner can mark a bearish reversal context.
🧱 System Philosophy
Volume Trap Reversal Planner belongs to the AGPro planner-style workflow: detect the event, score the evidence, define the risk edge, map the review zone, and guide the next chart-reading step.
🔐 Non-Promise Statement
No trap, score, label, or alert can guarantee a reversal.
No script can provide certainty.
📉 Risk Disclosure
Trading involves risk.
Users are responsible for their own decisions, risk management, and market interpretation.
This script is for educational and analytical purposes only and does not provide financial advice.
📚 Educational Note
Use the script to study how high-volume failed moves behave after sweeping recent references. The most useful insights come from comparing confirmed traps, failed traps, and ignored spikes across different markets and timeframes.

Meridian Session Cartography [JOAT]Meridian Session Cartography
Introduction
Meridian Session Cartography is an open-source session-structure overlay designed to map intraday market geography through Asia, London, New York, and one fully custom session. The indicator tracks each session's developing high, low, open, midpoint, previous-day references, and confirmed liquidity sweeps, then organizes those references into a clean institutional chart layout.
The problem Meridian solves is session context. Many intraday decisions fail not because the setup is invalid, but because the trader is reading a local move without understanding which session created the range, where the day is trading relative to prior-day references, and whether liquidity has already been swept. Meridian turns that information into a persistent map.
Core Concepts
1. Timezone-Safe Session Tracking
Each session is evaluated through explicit session windows and a user-selected timezone, allowing the script to adapt to regional workflows without hard-coding exchange assumptions.
f_inSession(string sess, string tz) =>
not na(time(timeframe.period, sess, tz))
2. Session Range Construction
Every active session continuously updates its high, low, midpoint, and opening price. These references remain actionable because they are tied to actual session development instead of static preset levels.
3. Previous-Day Reference Logic
Previous-day high, low, open, and close are requested from the daily context using non-lookahead calls. These levels frame the broader day structure around which the active session range is operating.
4. Confirmed Sweep Detection
The indicator identifies confirmed buy-side and sell-side sweeps around tracked extremes, helping the user recognize when a session has already consumed nearby liquidity.
5. Managed Object Layout
Boxes, lines, and labels are retained through capped arrays and automatically cleaned to avoid chart clutter and object-budget drift.
Features
Four configurable session blocks: Asia, London, New York, and one custom session
Range geometry: High, low, midpoint, and opening references for each session
Previous-day levels: Prior day high, low, open, and close included in the same framework
Confirmed sweep logic: Liquidity sweep status updates only after bar confirmation
Reference-level extension: Session levels can project forward for practical intraday use
Chart-cleaning controls: Managed limits for labels, boxes, and lines
Top-right dashboard: Active session, day range, sweep status, and nearest level are summarized continuously

How to Use This Indicator
Step 1: Identify the active session
Use the dashboard to confirm which session currently governs price. This gives immediate context for interpreting local range behavior.
Step 2: Compare the active session to the day
Check the relationship between the active session range and previous-day high/low. This helps distinguish local noise from meaningful day-level expansion.
Step 3: Monitor midpoint and open behavior
Session midpoints and opens often act as practical mean-reversion or continuation checkpoints during intraday trading.
Step 4: Watch sweep status before fading or chasing
If the session has already swept one side of liquidity, that changes the quality of any breakout or reversal idea built near the same reference.
Indicator Limitations
Session-based indicators are highly sensitive to the chosen timezone and should be configured intentionally
Sweep detection confirms after the bar closes, which is deliberate non-repainting behavior
Very low-liquidity markets can produce irregular session geometry
The script maps context and liquidity behavior; it does not generate full trade plans by itself
Originality Statement
Meridian Session Cartography is original in the way it combines timezone-safe multi-session mapping, previous-day references, midpoint and open logic, confirmed sweep detection, and managed chart-object cleanup into one publication-ready intraday overlay. It is not a simple session shading script or a basic high/low plotter.
Disclaimer
This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice. Session levels and sweep readings are contextual tools and can fail in volatile or atypical conditions. Trading involves risk, including the risk of loss.

Stop Run Reversal Planner [AGPro Series]Stop Run Reversal Planner
🧠 Core Idea
Did a stop run create a confirmed reversal context with clear risk, target room, and next-action guidance?
📌 Overview / What it does
Stop Run Reversal Planner is a chart-first stop-run reversal planning tool built to evaluate wick sweeps around recent range extremes.
The script detects when price runs beyond a prior high or low, checks whether price closes back through the swept reference, evaluates confirmation candle quality, scores volume response, measures target room, and converts the context into a 0-100 reversal readiness score.
It produces stop-run wick zones, confirmation labels, reclaim rails, invalidation guides, reversal target bands, alerts, and a clean AGPro planning panel. It does not predict price direction, automate execution, or claim that every stop run must reverse.
🎯 Purpose & Design Philosophy
This script was built for traders who want structure after a fast liquidity run instead of another simple sweep marker.
Stop-run candles can look dramatic, but not every sweep deserves the same attention. Some sweeps reclaim cleanly, confirm with stronger candle behavior, and leave usable target room. Others are only noise, continuation, or incomplete rejection.
The design supports a planning workflow: identify the stop run, wait for confirmation, read the readiness score, check invalidation, review target room, and decide whether the context deserves attention.
⚡ Why This Script Is Different
Most stop-hunt tools focus on mapping sweep zones or marking that liquidity was taken.
This script does NOT try to clone a stop-hunt map, liquidity grab detector, liquidity sweep engine, order block map, or broad SMC dashboard.
Instead, it focuses on the post-stop-run reversal decision. The key question is not only "was a stop run printed?" The key question is "did that stop run turn into a confirmed reversal plan with acceptable reclaim quality, invalidation logic, and target room?"
⚙️ Methodology
1. Context Detection
The script tracks recent range highs and lows, then checks whether price runs beyond one side with a meaningful wick sweep.
2. Reference Mapping
The swept reference becomes the reclaim rail. The sweep extreme becomes the invalidation guide. The opposite side of the reference range, or an ATR fallback, becomes the target-room guide.
3. Reaction Evaluation
The scoring model evaluates wick sweep quality, close-back-inside behavior, confirmation candle quality, relative volume response, trend-turn context, and available target room.
4. Visual Output
Qualified contexts are displayed through stop-run wick zones, confirmation labels, reclaim rails, invalidation lines, target bands, alerts, and a compact AGPro panel.
🗺️ How to Read the Chart
Zones = the stop-run wick zone between the swept reference and the sweep extreme.
Labels = stop-run watch, confirmed reversal, invalidation, and target-band review markers.
Colors = teal highlights bullish reversal contexts, pink highlights bearish reversal contexts, amber marks watch states, and indigo marks target-room areas.
Panel = the panel summarizes Stop Run, Confirmation, Reclaim Quality, Invalidation, and Action.
🚦 Signals & States
• Bull Stop Run Watch → price swept below the recent low and may need confirmation.
• Bear Stop Run Watch → price swept above the recent high and may need confirmation.
• Bull Reversal Confirmed → downside stop run reclaimed with enough confirmation quality and target room.
• Bear Reversal Confirmed → upside stop run rejected with enough confirmation quality and target room.
• Reversal Invalidated → price crossed the active invalidation guide.
• Target Band Review → price reached the active reversal target band.
🔔 Alerts Logic
Alerts trigger when a bull or bear stop-run watch appears, when a bull or bear reversal confirmation becomes active, when invalidation is crossed, or when the target band is reached.
Alerts are attention markers. They are not trade instructions, entry signals, exit signals, or automation commands.
🧩 Confluence Logic
The reversal context becomes stronger when multiple factors align:
Stop-run wick + close back inside + strong confirmation candle + supportive volume response + usable target room + cleaner trend-turn behavior.
When only one or two factors appear, the script keeps the context in watch mode or ignores it completely.
📊 When to Use
• After fast wick sweeps beyond recent highs or lows
• Around failed breakout or failed breakdown attempts
• In range-edge reversal review workflows
• When price reclaims a swept level and needs structured confirmation
• When a trader wants risk, target, and action context instead of only a sweep marker
⚠️ When NOT to Use
• Very low-liquidity symbols
• Extremely noisy micro-timeframes
• News candles with abnormal gaps
• Strong one-way trend conditions where stop runs may continue rather than reverse
• Situations where the user wants an automatic buy or sell signal
🎛️ Key Inputs
• Stop-Run Reference Lookback → controls the recent high / low range used for sweep detection.
• Sensitivity → changes how selective wick-sweep detection should be.
• Confirmation Mode → controls how strict the post-sweep confirmation candle must be.
• Minimum Reversal Score → sets the 0-100 score required before a confirmed plan is drawn.
• Confirmation Window Bars → defines how long a stop run can wait for confirmation.
• Target Room ATR Fallback → creates a practical target guide when the opposite range side is not useful.
• Invalidation Buffer ATR → places the invalidation guide beyond the sweep extreme.
• Visual settings → control zones, rails, target bands, labels, panel location, panel theme, and font sizes.
🖥️ Interface & Visual Design
The interface is built to stay chart-first.
The panel gives the decision summary. The stop-run zone shows where the sweep happened. The reclaim rail shows the level price had to recover. The invalidation line marks the level that would weaken the reversal context. The target band gives a structured review area without making a promise.
The layout is intentionally compact, readable, and publication-friendly.
🧪 Practical Usage Workflow
1. Read the panel to identify the current Stop Run and Confirmation state.
2. Check whether the chart shows a stop-run wick zone and reclaim rail.
3. Review the Reclaim Quality score and confirmation label.
4. Compare the current price with invalidation and target-band guides.
5. Interpret the context with broader market structure, liquidity, and volatility conditions.
🔍 Interpretation Guidelines
A stop-run watch means price has swept a recent edge, but the reversal plan is not yet confirmed.
A confirmed reversal state means the script found stronger reclaim, candle, volume, and target-room conditions.
An invalidation marker means the active context weakened according to the script rules.
A target-band review marker means price reached a planned review area, not that the move must stop there.
🚫 What This Script Is NOT
• Not a prediction engine
• Not financial advice
• Not an auto trading system
• Not a guaranteed signal tool
• Not a stop-hunt zone map
• Not a liquidity grab detector
• Not an order block or FVG map
• Not a generic SMC dashboard
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
Stop-run behavior changes across symbols, sessions, and timeframes.
Some stop runs continue instead of reversing. Some reclaim attempts fail after confirmation. Some symbols have weak or unreliable volume data, which can affect the score model.
The script provides structured context, not certainty.
🧠 Market Context Notes
Stop-run reversal behavior often appears near visible range edges, prior swing highs, prior swing lows, and failed breakout areas.
The strongest contexts usually combine a meaningful sweep, clean reclaim, strong confirmation candle, usable room, and a clear invalidation guide.
🧾 Use Case Examples
When price runs below a recent low, leaves a strong lower wick, closes back above the swept reference, and confirms with stronger follow-through, the script may classify the context as a bullish stop-run reversal plan.
When price runs above a recent high, rejects the move, closes back below the swept reference, and confirms with stronger downside behavior, the script may classify the context as a bearish stop-run reversal plan.
🧱 System Philosophy
Stop Run Reversal Planner follows the AGPro decision-engine approach: the goal is not to add another signal to the chart, but to organize the decision around validity, score, risk, target room, and next action.
🔐 Non-Promise Statement
No script can guarantee a reversal, outcome, or market reaction.
This script provides rule-based analytical context only.
📉 Risk Disclosure
Trading involves risk.
Users remain responsible for their own decisions, execution, risk management, and interpretation.
This script does not provide financial advice.

Use the output as a structured review layer. The best readings usually come from combining the planner state with broader market structure, timeframe context, liquidity conditions, and personal risk rules.
Indicator
Liquidity Reclaim Planner [AGPro Series]Liquidity Reclaim Planner
🧠 Core Idea
After a liquidity event, is the reclaim strong enough to matter, or is the move still fragile?
📌 Overview / What it does
Liquidity Reclaim Planner is a chart-first liquidity planning tool designed to evaluate what happens after price sweeps a recent swing liquidity reference.
Instead of treating every liquidity sweep as a finished signal, the script starts a structured reclaim workflow. It maps the liquidity event, the reclaim pocket, the failure line, the target-room corridor, a 0-100 reclaim score, failure risk, and a clear next-action state.
The script does not predict price direction, automate execution, or claim that a reclaim will continue. It organizes post-event liquidity context so traders can review whether the reclaim has enough quality, timing, participation, and room to deserve attention.
🎯 Purpose & Design Philosophy
This script was built for traders who want more than another sweep marker.
Many liquidity tools identify where a stop run, wick raid, or sweep happened. That is useful, but the harder question comes after the event: did price reclaim the level cleanly, is the failure point clear, and is there enough structure room for the idea to remain practical?
Liquidity Reclaim Planner supports a decision-engine mindset. It helps users move from raw event detection toward structured review: event, reclaim, failure risk, target room, and next action.
⚡ Why This Script Is Different
Most tools focus on detecting liquidity sweeps, equal highs, equal lows, or stop-hunt style wick events.
This script does NOT try to become a broad liquidity sweep scanner, an EQH/EQL engine, an order block map, a structural breakout reclaim planner, or a generic support/resistance zone tool.
Instead, it focuses on the post-event reclaim decision. It asks whether the sweep was reclaimed with enough depth balance, close strength, timing, volume response, and structural room to become a useful planning context.
⚙️ Methodology
1. Context Detection
The engine tracks confirmed swing highs and swing lows as active buy-side and sell-side liquidity references.
2. Reference Mapping
When price moves through a fresh liquidity reference by an ATR-normalized amount, the script registers a liquidity event and starts a reclaim plan.
3. Reaction Evaluation
The reclaim score evaluates sweep depth, reclaim close strength, time to reclaim, relative volume response, and room to the next structure reference.
4. Visual Output
The script draws the reclaim pocket, failure line, target-room corridor, event labels, sparse context labels, and the AG Pro decision panel.
🗺️ How to Read the Chart
Zones = the reclaim pocket between the swept liquidity level and the event extreme, plus an optional target-room corridor toward the next structural reference.
Labels = liquidity event, reclaim ready, room thin, failure line, and sparse context states.
Colors = bullish reclaim planning uses AGPro teal, bearish reclaim planning uses AGPro pink, neutral review uses gold, and risk/failure context uses red.
Panel = the panel shows Liquidity Event, Reclaim Score, Failure Risk, Room, and Action.
🚦 Signals & States
• Sell-side Event → price swept a recent swing low and a bullish reclaim plan is being evaluated.
• Buy-side Event → price swept a recent swing high and a bearish reclaim plan is being evaluated.
• Reclaim Watch → price has not yet reclaimed strongly enough, but context is active.
• Planner Ready → reclaim score and target room are strong enough for structured review.
• Risk Review → reclaim exists, but the quality profile is not yet clean.
• Room Thin → reclaim exists, but the next structural room is limited.
• Failure Hit → price crossed the active failure line and the reclaim plan needs reassessment.
🔔 Alerts Logic
Alerts trigger when a sell-side or buy-side liquidity event appears, when a reclaim becomes ready, when the planner reaches Planner Ready state, when target room becomes thin, or when the failure line is crossed.
Alerts are attention markers. They are not trade instructions, entry commands, or automated strategy signals.
🧩 Confluence Logic
The strongest context usually appears when sweep depth is balanced, reclaim happens quickly, the reclaim close is decisive, relative volume supports the reaction, and the target-room corridor is not compressed.
When these elements align, the reclaim score improves and the panel action becomes more useful for structured review.
📊 When to Use
• Liquidity-driven markets where swing highs and swing lows are actively swept.
• Intraday or swing charts where reclaim behavior after stop runs matters.
• 4H charts when the trader wants a balanced view between visible liquidity events and readable planning zones.
• Post-sweep review workflows.
• Situations where the trader needs a clear failure line and room assessment.
⚠️ When NOT to Use
• Extremely low-liquidity symbols where swing references are unreliable.
• Highly chaotic news candles where reclaim behavior is distorted by abnormal volatility.
• Very compressed chop where every small swing becomes noise.
• Markets where volume data is missing or not meaningful, unless volume weighting is interpreted carefully.
🎛️ Key Inputs
• Liquidity Pivot Strength → controls how swing liquidity references are confirmed.
• Max Liquidity Level Age → controls how long a swing reference remains eligible.
• Sensitivity → adjusts how selective liquidity event and reclaim thresholds are.
• Timely Reclaim Window → defines how many bars after the event can still count as timely reclaim.
• Planner Ready Score → controls the 0-100 score threshold for the main ready state.
• Minimum Target Room ATR → controls how much structure room is required before room is considered acceptable.
• Visual settings → control reclaim pockets, failure lines, target-room corridors, labels, panel theme, and font sizes.
🖥️ Interface & Visual Design
The interface is built around a clean AG Pro panel and compact chart visuals.
The first panel row is a merged blue AGPro header. The remaining rows show the active liquidity event, reclaim score, failure risk, target room, and next action.
The chart uses a limited number of zones and labels so the active plan is visible without turning the chart into a crowded liquidity map.
🧪 Practical Usage Workflow
1. Read the panel to identify whether a liquidity event is active.
2. Check the reclaim pocket to understand the swept level and event extreme.
3. Review the reclaim score and failure risk.
4. Check the target-room corridor before assigning importance to the reclaim.
5. Use the Action row to decide whether the context deserves review, waiting, or rejection.
🔍 Interpretation Guidelines
Think in terms of quality, not certainty.
A reclaim with a high score, clean timing, strong close, and enough room is more useful than a late reclaim into nearby structure.
A low score does not mean price cannot move. It means the script's reclaim-planning conditions are not well aligned.
🚫 What This Script Is NOT
• Not a prediction engine.
• Not financial advice.
• Not auto trading.
• Not guaranteed signals.
• Not a complete liquidity or smart-money framework.
• Not an order block, FVG, or generic support/resistance map.
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
Swing references are confirmed after the selected pivot strength, so the script uses confirmed structure rather than instantly known future pivots.
Different timeframes, symbols, volatility regimes, and liquidity conditions can change how reclaim behavior appears.
Relative volume can add context, but volume response does not guarantee continuation or reversal.
Target-room corridors are structural planning references, not forecasts.
🧠 Market Context Notes
Liquidity events often matter most when they occur around visible swing references that many traders can identify.
The reclaim phase is where the decision quality changes. A fast reclaim can show rejection, while a slow or weak reclaim can indicate fragile context.
The failure line exists so the user can see where the active reclaim idea becomes structurally weaker according to the script's own rules.
🧾 Use Case Examples
When price sweeps a recent swing low, quickly closes back above the level, and the target-room corridor is open, the planner may shift from Reclaim Watch to Planner Ready.
When price reclaims late or reclaims directly into nearby structure, the panel may show Risk Review or Room Thin.
When price crosses the active failure line after reclaim, the script marks Failure Hit so the context can be reassessed.
🧱 System Philosophy
Liquidity Reclaim Planner follows the AGPro Series approach: clear structure, rule-based scoring, readable visuals, and decision support without outcome promises.
The script is designed to help traders review the quality of a setup context, not to replace judgment or risk planning.
🔐 Non-Promise Statement
No script can provide certainty.
No reclaim score guarantees continuation, reversal, or profit.
The output should be interpreted as structured analytical context.
📉 Risk Disclosure
Trading involves risk.
Users are responsible for their own decisions, position sizing, risk controls, and market interpretation.
This script does not provide financial advice, investment advice, or guaranteed trading outcomes.
📚 Educational Note
Use this tool to study how liquidity events evolve after the sweep: whether price reclaims, where the failure line sits, how much room remains, and whether the context is strong enough to deserve further review.
Indicator
Reversal Confirmation Planner [AGPro Series]Reversal Confirmation Planner
🧠 Core Idea
Is a reversal actually confirming, or is it still only an early reaction?
📌 Overview / What it does
Reversal Confirmation Planner is a chart-first planning tool built to separate early reversal reactions from structured confirmation context.
The script detects sweep or wick-rejection reactions around recent swing references, then evaluates whether the reaction develops into a cleaner confirmation plan. It maps a confirmation pocket, invalidation edge, target-room band, compact event labels, alerts, and a clean AG Pro decision panel.
It does not predict reversals, automate entries, or scan every classical reversal pattern. The goal is to help traders organize the confirmation phase: reaction quality, confirmation close, momentum turn, volume support, room, invalidation, and next action.
🎯 Purpose & Design Philosophy
This script was built for traders who do not want to treat every wick, sweep, or counter-move as a valid reversal.
Many reversal tools mark the first reaction. This planner waits for structure. It asks whether price has moved from reaction into confirmation, whether momentum is turning, whether volume supports the shift, and whether the active plan has enough room before the next projected guide.
The design supports a decision-making workflow. It does not ask the user to chase every signal. It helps the user decide whether the reversal context is still early, building, confirming, confirmed, failed, expired, or already testing its room.
⚡ Why This Script Is Different
Most reversal tools focus on detecting a pattern, labeling a wick, or marking every possible counter-trend reaction.
This script does NOT behave like a broad reversal-pattern scanner, double-top/double-bottom detector, head-and-shoulders module, 1-2-3 map, wedge detector, Turtle Soup map, liquidity sweep tool, or generic support/resistance zone script.
Instead, it works as a confirmation planner. The core workflow is reaction → confirmation pocket → invalidation edge → target-room context → next-action state. This keeps the public concept narrow, useful, and clearly separate from other AGPro reversal tools.
⚙️ Methodology
1. Context Detection
The script watches for bullish or bearish reversal reactions using sweep behavior, wick rejection, candle close location, and prior directional context.
2. Reference Mapping
Once a reaction qualifies, the planner creates a confirmation line, confirmation pocket, invalidation edge, and target-room guide.
3. Reaction Evaluation
The model scores sweep or rejection quality, confirmation progress, momentum turn, volume support, and available room.
4. Visual Output
The chart shows the active confirmation pocket, centered target-room band, risk/target guide lines, compact labels, alert conditions, and an AG Pro panel with the current decision state.
🗺️ How to Read the Chart
Confirmation Pocket = the area between the reaction reference and the confirmation close line.
Invalidation Edge = the level beyond the reaction extreme where the active confirmation plan is considered failed by the script rules.
Target-Room Band = a projected planning zone that shows whether the reversal has enough forward room relative to the active risk distance.
Labels = compact state markers such as REACTION, CONFIRMING, CONFIRMED, FAILED, EXPIRED, ROOM TESTED, or PLAN.
Colors = teal supports bullish reversal planning, pink supports bearish reversal planning, amber marks developing context, indigo marks target-room context, and red marks invalidation or failed confirmation.
Panel = summarizes Reversal Stage, Confirmation Score, Invalidation, Room, and Action.
🚦 Signals & States
• REACTION → an early sweep or rejection is active, but confirmation is not complete.
• BUILDING → the context is improving, but the confirmation close is not fully qualified.
• CONFIRMING → price is testing or closing through the confirmation line with sufficient structure to review.
• CONFIRMED → the confirmation score and close behavior meet the script threshold.
• ROOM TESTED → the projected target-room guide has been reached after confirmation.
• FAILED → the active plan violated its invalidation edge.
• EXPIRED → the reaction did not confirm within the selected confirmation window.
🔔 Alerts Logic
The script includes alerts for bullish reaction, bearish reaction, bullish confirmation, bearish confirmation, failed confirmation, and high-quality confirmation.
Alerts trigger when the internal rule conditions are met. They are attention markers for chart review, not trade instructions, automated entries, or guaranteed reversal signals.
🧩 Confluence Logic
The strongest confirmation context appears when multiple layers align:
• A clear sweep or rejection reaction forms.
• Price progresses through the confirmation pocket.
• Momentum begins to turn in the reaction direction.
• Volume support is not weak.
• The target-room band offers enough room relative to invalidation distance.
When these layers align, the confirmation score becomes stronger. When one or more layers are weak, the state usually remains reaction, building, expired, or failed.
📊 When to Use
• After visible sweep or rejection behavior.
• During possible reversal transitions after directional extension.
• Around swing references where confirmation matters more than the first wick.
• 4H swing-review charts, where the default label spacing and confirmation pockets usually have the cleanest visual balance.
• Daily charts when the user wants fewer but more selective reversal confirmation states.
• In markets where traders want to compare reaction quality, invalidation, and room before acting.
• For discretionary review of crypto, forex, indices, equities, and commodities on liquid charts.
⚠️ When NOT to Use
• Extremely low-liquidity symbols with unreliable wicks or volume.
• Very noisy micro-timeframes where reaction candles are unstable.
• News spikes or extreme volatility events where confirmation levels can be crossed erratically.
• Charts where the user expects a complete reversal-pattern scanner.
• Situations where the user wants automated trade execution.
🎛️ Key Inputs
• Confirmation Mode → controls whether labels and alerts wait for bar close or update live.
• Swing Reference Length → defines the recent swing references used for sweep-based reactions.
• Sensitivity → adjusts how selective the reaction model is.
• Confirmation Window Bars → limits how long a reaction can wait for confirmation.
• Minimum Reaction Score → controls the quality required before tracking a candidate.
• CONFIRMED Threshold → controls the minimum 0-100 score required for confirmed state.
• Preferred Room / Risk → adjusts how much forward room is preferred relative to invalidation distance.
• Visual settings → control pockets, bands, guide lines, labels, panel position, panel theme, and font sizes.
🖥️ Interface & Visual Design
The interface is built around a premium chart-first workflow.
The confirmation pocket and target-room band are concept-native visuals, not generic support/resistance zones. Their labels are centered inside the boxes for cleaner chart reading.
The default visual preset is tuned for 4H-style swing review: enough labels to keep the chart informative, but enough spacing to avoid a crowded reversal scanner look.
The AG Pro panel uses a compact structure with one merged blue title row and five decision rows. It is designed to show only the current planning context without turning the chart into a dashboard-heavy script.
🧪 Practical Usage Workflow
1. Read the panel state.
2. Check whether the chart is showing REACTION, BUILDING, CONFIRMING, CONFIRMED, FAILED, or EXPIRED.
3. Review the confirmation pocket and invalidation edge.
4. Compare target-room context against the room/risk readout.
5. Use alerts as review prompts, not as trade instructions.
🔍 Interpretation Guidelines
Treat the first reaction as incomplete information.
A higher score means the reaction has developed more confirmation structure according to the script rules. It does not mean the reversal must continue.
A failed or expired state is also useful information. It tells the user that the reaction did not confirm cleanly under the selected rules.
🚫 What This Script Is NOT
• Not a prediction engine.
• Not financial advice.
• Not auto trading.
• Not guaranteed signals.
• Not a broad reversal-pattern scanner.
• Not a full liquidity sweep system.
• Not a generic support/resistance zone tool.
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
All outputs are rule-based and depend on the selected inputs, timeframe, and symbol behavior.
Swing references confirm with natural delay. Wick structure can be noisy on low-liquidity symbols. Volume quality varies across markets. Fast volatility can cause reactions to confirm and fail quickly.
The confirmation score is an internal comparison model. It is useful for reading this script's framework, but it is not an objective probability model.
🧠 Market Context Notes
Reversal confirmation is strongest when price reacts from a meaningful extension, then follows through with cleaner close behavior and improving participation.
The script is intentionally focused on the confirmation phase. It does not attempt to map every higher-timeframe structure, order block, fair value gap, harmonic pattern, or reversal formation.
🧾 Use Case Examples
When price sweeps below a recent swing low, closes back above it, then starts progressing through the confirmation pocket, the planner may shift from REACTION to BUILDING or CONFIRMING.
When price confirms but the room/risk readout is weak, the user can see that the reversal may be structurally less attractive inside this framework.
When price violates the invalidation edge before confirmation, the planner marks the context as FAILED instead of leaving the reaction visually ambiguous.
🧱 System Philosophy
The AGPro approach is to build decision engines, not decorative signal boards.
This script focuses on one clear question: did the reversal reaction earn confirmation, or is it still only a reaction?
🔐 Non-Promise Statement
No script can confirm future price movement with certainty.
This tool provides structured context, not guarantees.
📉 Risk Disclosure
Trading involves risk.
This script is for educational, analytical, and chart-review purposes only. It does not provide financial advice, investment advice, or guaranteed trading outcomes.
Users remain responsible for their own decisions, risk management, position sizing, and broader market analysis.
📚 Educational Note
Use the planner to study how reactions mature, fail, expire, or confirm under consistent rules. The value is in disciplined interpretation, not in treating any single label as a complete trading system.
Indicator
AMD Session TrackerAMD Session Tracker plots the three major forex sessions (Asia, London, New York) as live-growing colored boxes with high/low extension lines, then layers AMD framework analysis on top. Detects in real time when London sweeps the Asian range and when NY sweeps the London range — the core mechanics of the Accumulation / Manipulation / Distribution model.
WHAT IS AMD
AMD stands for Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution — a market structure framework popularized by ICT and SMC traders. The Asian session typically accumulates in a tight range, London manipulates by sweeping that range to grab liquidity above or below it, and New York distributes in the resulting direction. This indicator tracks all three sessions and detects the sweep relationships between them as price action develops.
FEATURES
Live-growing session boxes for Asia (7PM–3AM), London (3AM–8AM), and New York (8AM–12PM) — all times America/New York with automatic DST adjustment
Asian range high/low extension lines projected into London and NY for liquidity targeting
Sweep tracking: detects when London sweeps Asian high or low (manipulation phase) and when NY sweeps London high or low (distribution phase)
Dashboard shows current AMD phase, session high/low/range, and sweep status — sweep cells highlight amber the moment a sweep occurs
Auto-detects pip size for JPY pairs, other forex, metals, indices, and crypto — no manual configuration
Optional 50% midline marker for each session
Six dashboard position options for indicator layout flexibility
Built-in alerts for session opens AND first-time sweeps of prior session highs and lows
HOW TO USE
Watch for London to sweep the Asian range during the manipulation phase — this is the highest-probability AMD setup signal. After the sweep, look for displacement back into the Asian range and a fair value gap to enter on the retracement. NY then often continues in the post-sweep direction (distribution).
Set alerts on "Asia High Swept" and "Asia Low Swept" to get notified the moment manipulation occurs, even if you're away from the chart.
Pairs cleanly with Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Key Swing Levels (KSL) from the same author — three indicators designed to coexist on the same chart with non-overlapping dashboards by default (AMD top-right, KSL also top-right but movable, FVG bottom-left).

Liquidity Fracture [JOAT]Liquidity Fracture
Introduction
Liquidity Fracture is an open-source stop-hunt and liquidity sweep detection engine that identifies, classifies, and visualizes four distinct types of liquidity events in real time. The four types are: Swing Cluster Zones where retail stop orders accumulate, Wick Rejection Traps where engineered wick candles are designed to trigger stops, Sweep Events where price spikes through a level and recovers inside, and Volume Reversal Zones where institutional footprints appear as high-volume directional rejections.
The problem liquidity analysis solves is that the most reliable entry locations are not at obvious support and resistance levels — they are just beyond them, at the price points where the greatest concentration of stop-loss orders sit. When institutional order flow needs to fill large positions, it engineers moves into those stop clusters to provide the liquidity required. Liquidity Fracture maps those clusters, labels the sweep events when they occur, and records volume-backed reversal zones where the institutional absorption is visible in the data.
Core Concepts
1. Four Zone Types and Their Rationale
Each zone type targets a different category of liquidity event:
Swing Cluster Zones mark recent pivot highs and lows — the locations where the majority of retail stop-loss orders are placed. Price regularly engineers moves into these clusters to trigger stops before reversing. These zones are drawn as boxes above pivot highs (sell-side liquidity above) and below pivot lows (buy-side liquidity below).
Wick Rejection Traps identify candles where the wick-to-body ratio exceeds a configurable threshold. A candle with a dominant upper wick closing near its lows is an engineered candle designed to trigger buy stops above the high before rejecting. The wick ratio determines whether a candle qualifies as a trap:
wickUp = high - math.max(open, close)
bodySize = math.abs(close - open)
isWickTrap = wickUp / (high - low) > wickThreshold
Sweep Events capture the core liquidity hunt pattern: price wicks through a tracked zone level and closes back inside. The sweep label fires at the closing bar of the event with a styled label indicating the direction (SWEEP up or down).
Volume Reversal Zones identify bars where volume exceeds a configurable multiple of the 20-bar average volume, price reversal is confirmed by a close in the opposite half of the candle, and the move represents a statistically significant displacement. These are the bars where institutional absorption of the sweep is most likely visible.
2. Zone Distance and Deduplication
To prevent the chart from becoming cluttered with overlapping zones at the same price level, a minimum zone distance filter measured in ATR multiples prevents new zones from being drawn within that distance of an existing zone of the same type:
minDist = atr * minZoneDist
// New zone only drawn if > minDist from any existing zone
The maximum zones per type setting caps how many of each zone type can exist simultaneously. When the cap is reached, the oldest zone is automatically removed as new ones are added.
3. Heatmap Intensity
Each zone carries a heat intensity value based on how many times price has revisited it without sweeping through. Zones that price has respected multiple times increase in visual intensity — a darker, more opaque zone represents a higher-tested liquidity cluster that has proved significant. This provides immediate visual ranking of zone importance without requiring the trader to manually assess each zone.
4. Sweep Event Detection and Labeling
A sweep is detected when price penetrates a zone's boundary and closes back inside during the same bar. The sweep label appears directly at the sweep bar using styled labels (SWEEP) with directional styling — label pointing up for bullish sweep (price wicked below a low zone and closed above it), label pointing down for bearish sweep (price wicked above a high zone and closed below it):
bullSweep = low < zoneBottom and close > zoneBottom
bearSweep = high > zoneTop and close < zoneTop
5. Zone Type Labels
Each box drawn on the chart receives a text label in its upper corner identifying its zone type: SWING HI, SWING LO, WICK TRAP, or VOL REV. This allows traders to immediately understand what category of liquidity event they are looking at without needing to remember color assignments.
Features
Four liquidity zone types: Swing Cluster Zones, Wick Rejection Traps, Sweep Events, and Volume Reversal Zones — each independently togglable
Styled sweep labels: SWEEP labels with directional pointing arrows at the exact bar where the wick-and-close confirmation occurs
Zone type text labels: Every box labeled with its zone type (SWING HI, SWING LO, WICK TRAP, VOL REV) in the upper corner
Heatmap intensity: Zone color opacity increases with each price revisit, visually ranking zone significance
ATR-based zone distance filter: Minimum ATR distance between zones of the same type prevents overlapping or duplicate zones
Volume spike detection: Configurable volume multiplier threshold for Volume Reversal Zone qualification
Wick ratio threshold: Configurable wick-to-candle-range fraction for Wick Rejection Trap qualification
Maximum zones per type: Cap on simultaneous zones per category with automatic oldest-zone removal
Zone base transparency: Configurable transparency for all zone fills simultaneously
Institutional dashboard (top right): Sweep count, active zone counts by type, ATR, and volume ratio
Fully configurable colors: Each zone type has its own independent color input
Sweep alerts: Separate alertconditions for bullish and bearish sweep events

How to Use This Indicator
Step 1: Identify Active Liquidity Clusters
Swing Cluster Zones (red above, green below) mark where the nearest stop clusters sit. The most saturated (darkest) zones have been tested most frequently and represent the highest-concentration liquidity pools. These are the primary targets for engineered price moves.
Step 2: Watch for Wick Trap Formations
Wick Rejection Trap zones appear when a candle forms with a disproportionately large wick. These candles are the mechanism by which stops are triggered — the wick penetrates the stop cluster while the close retreats. A Wick Trap zone followed by a Sweep event on the same level is a high-probability combination.
Step 3: React to Sweep Labels
When a SWEEP label appears, a stop cluster has been penetrated and price has recovered inside in a single bar. This is the liquidity hunt completion pattern. A bullish sweep (below a low zone, close above) suggests buy-side liquidity was provided and a reversal is possible. Confirm with volume.
Step 4: Use Volume Reversal Zones as Confirmation
Volume Reversal Zones mark where institutional absorption is most likely visible. A sweep into a cluster followed by a Volume Reversal Zone on the recovery bar provides the highest-confidence combination this indicator can produce.
Step 5: Assess Zone Freshness
Freshly created zones (lighter color) have not been tested. Heavily revisited zones (darker) have withstood multiple price touches. Focus attention on the darkest zones — they represent the most significant concentration of resting orders.
Indicator Limitations
Swing zone detection uses pivot logic with a right-bar offset. Zones are confirmed several bars after the actual pivot, creating a slight lag in zone creation
The volume spike filter relies on exchange-reported volume. On synthetic instruments, indices, or assets with thin or unreliable volume reporting, Volume Reversal Zones will not be accurate
Zone distance filtering prevents duplicate zones, but in volatile, fast-moving markets, zones can form rapidly and crowd the chart before the maximum zone cap removes old ones
Sweep detection requires the close to recover inside the zone on the same bar as the wick penetration. Multi-bar sweeps (where recovery takes multiple bars) are not detected as sweep events — the level simply becomes the new zone boundary
This indicator identifies liquidity events. It does not provide directional entry signals or determine the probability that a reversal after a sweep will be sustained
Originality Statement
Liquidity Fracture is original in its simultaneous, unified detection and visualization of four distinct liquidity event types within a single indicator with a unified heatmap intensity system. This indicator is published because:
The classification of four independent liquidity event types (swing cluster, wick trap, sweep, volume reversal) — each with its own detection logic, independent toggle, and color — into a single, unified zone management system is uncommon in published open-source Pine Script
The heatmap intensity system that increases zone visual weight with each price revisit provides automatic, data-driven zone importance ranking without any manual assessment
The zone deduplication system using ATR-based minimum distance prevents the false signal accumulation that occurs in naive pivot-based zone indicators that draw every pivot regardless of proximity
The zone type labeling system (SWING HI, SWING LO, WICK TRAP, VOL REV) inside each box allows instant identification of event type without relying solely on color memory

This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument. Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Liquidity zone detection and sweep signals are based on historical price and volume patterns. The identification of a sweep event does not guarantee a reversal, and zone levels can be violated without producing the expected reaction. Always use proper risk management.

ICT Smart Money Footprint [AGPro Series]ICT Smart Money Footprint
🔷 OVERVIEW
ICT Smart Money Footprint is a multi-timeframe price action engine that maps institutional liquidity behavior directly onto your chart. It combines higher-timeframe reaction zones (BSL/SSL) derived from swing pivots with candle-by-candle lower-timeframe footprint states — Liquidity Grab, Displacement, and Reclaim — into one cohesive visualization. A live panel tracks session bias, daily event counts, and zone lifecycle, giving price action traders a complete context window for ICT-style analysis across every timeframe.
🧭 UNIQUE EDGE
Most Smart Money Concept indicators plot every swing as a zone, producing cluttered charts that obscure the very structure they aim to reveal. This tool takes a different route. It separates the question "where is liquidity?" (answered at HTF with wide, contextual zones) from "what is price doing right now?" (answered at LTF with footprint labels). The two layers communicate through a single panel and a shared color palette, so the trader always sees both the macro landscape and the tactical footprint without layering multiple scripts. Priority filtering ensures only the highest-conviction event is printed per bar, and confluence windowing prevents label clustering.
⚙️ METHODOLOGY
The script runs two parallel engines.
The HTF Zone Engine pulls pivot highs and lows from a higher timeframe using request.security with lookahead disabled. Each confirmed pivot anchors a reaction zone sized by HTF ATR × 1.5, ensuring natural visibility on any chart view. Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) zones form above price at pivot highs; Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) zones form below price at pivot lows. Zones extend right via line.new with extend.right and a linefill between the two edges. When price tags a zone, the zone is marked mitigated: its lines switch to dashed style, width drops, color fades, and right extension freezes at the touch point.
The LTF Footprint Engine evaluates each confirmed candle for three events. Liquidity Grab triggers when price sweeps the prior LTF swing with a buffer and closes back inside range in the opposite direction. Displacement triggers when candle range exceeds ATR × multiplier and the candle breaks the prior bar's extreme. Reclaim triggers when price recovers a recently lost swing level within a 20-bar window. A priority filter (DISP > LG > REC) prints only the strongest event per bar and direction. A session bias score accumulates these events and resets daily, tinting the chart background and updating the panel in real time.
📡 SIGNALS & ALERTS
Six alert conditions are built in:
• Liquidity Grab (bull or bear)
• Displacement (bull or bear)
• HTF Mitigation (any zone tagged)
• Reclaim (bull or bear)
• Bias Turned Bullish
• Bias Turned Bearish
All alerts include ticker and interval placeholders for multi-chart monitoring.
🎛️ KEY INPUTS
HTF Source — Auto scales the higher timeframe to your chart (15m→4H, 1H→D, 4H→W, 1D→M), or pick a manual HTF.
HTF Pivot Length — controls strength threshold of liquidity zones.
HTF Zone Height (ATR x) — default 1.5; tune for wider or tighter zones.
LTF Pivot Length — swing sensitivity for LG and REC detection.
Displacement ATR Multiplier — default 2.0; raise for only the most explosive candles.
Sweep Buffer — extra cushion above or below swing levels for LG qualification.
Confluence Window — suppresses back-to-back same-direction labels.
Session Bias Band — subtle background tint reflecting daily event accumulation.
Panel Location, Theme, Font Size — full control over on-chart presentation.
🧩 HOW TO USE
Start with your normal trading timeframe. The HTF Source set to Auto will anchor the zones to a relevant higher timeframe. Watch how price interacts with the BSL and SSL zones: unmitigated HTF zones act as liquidity targets and reaction areas, while mitigated (dashed) zones mark where liquidity has already been absorbed.
Use the LTF footprint labels to read the tactical story inside those zones. A Liquidity Grab near an SSL zone hints at institutional accumulation. A Displacement candle after an LG often precedes a structural shift. A Reclaim of a recently lost level signals inducement and potential continuation. The panel's Session Bias gives you a running directional read; when it flips, an alert can fire.
Traders typically combine this tool with their own execution framework: HTF zones for bias and target selection, LTF footprints for timing and confirmation. The indicator provides the map; risk management, entry rules, and position sizing remain the trader's responsibility.
⚠️ LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
This indicator is an analytical mapping tool, not a trading strategy. It identifies structural patterns and plots them for visual analysis.
HTF zones rely on request.security with lookahead disabled, which means new zones appear only after the HTF pivot is fully confirmed — this introduces a natural lag consistent with non-repainting practice but means some reactions may occur before the zone is drawn.
LTF footprint labels are confirmed on bar close. Intrabar signals during live bars may flicker until the bar closes.
Different market conditions produce different zone densities. Ranging markets generate more mitigated zones; trending markets leave more unmitigated zones above or below price. Use the Max Active Zones input to cap chart clutter.
Past structural patterns do not guarantee future outcomes. Liquidity sweeps can mark reversals or simply precede continuation moves. Always validate signals with your own analysis and broader market context.

Liquidity Grab Detector [AGPro Series]🧲 LIQUIDITY GRAB DETECTOR
Detects single-bar multi-level liquidity raids — the precise moment price sweeps a cluster of 2 or more distinct liquidity pools within a single candle and immediately reverses. Built for ICT, Smart Money, and institutional order-flow analysis, this engine identifies the liquidity raids that matter most: simultaneous multi-level stop hunts that typically precede the sharpest reversals.
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔹 OVERVIEW
Most liquidity tools either track single sweeps or lifecycle-based breach-and-reclaim patterns. This detector focuses on a different, rarer, and higher-conviction event: the single-bar multi-level raid. When one candle sweeps a cluster of two or more untouched liquidity levels (swing highs/lows, session H/L, previous day H/L, previous week H/L) in a single motion, the odds of a meaningful reversal increase significantly. The engine validates each grab with four independent filters, deduplicates overlapping levels, merges adjacent reversal zones for a clean chart, tiers signals by quality, and projects forward target zones.
One-click preset modes (Aggressive / Balanced / Conservative / Custom) make the detector instantly suitable for any style — from high-frequency scalping to premium-only confluence trading — without manual tuning.
This is not a strategy and makes no directional prediction. It is a detection and visualization engine for a specific institutional order-flow footprint.
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔹 UNIQUE EDGE — HOW THIS DIFFERS
The single-bar multi-level criterion is the defining separator from conventional liquidity tools:
▪ Traditional liquidity sweep detectors flag any single-level sweep. High signal rate, low conviction per signal.
▪ Breach-and-reclaim engines (equal-highs / equal-lows style) require a full lifecycle across multiple bars. Different mechanic, different timing.
▪ This detector requires a cluster of 2+ distinct liquidity levels to be swept in a single candle, within a user-defined ATR proximity. ATR-normalized thresholds adapt across all timeframes and symbols.
▪ ATR-based level deduplication merges coincident sources (e.g. Swing + PDH stacked at the same price) into a single logical level, preventing inflated sweep counts.
▪ Zone overlap-awareness: adjacent same-direction reversal zones are merged into a single extended zone rather than piling multiple boxes on top of each other. Premium, chart-clean visualization.
▪ Strikethrough length clamp keeps historical consumed-level lines from crossing the entire chart, even on long-running indicators.
▪ Preset modes encapsulate calibrated filter stacks, making the detector genuinely plug-and-play.
The combined filter stack (cluster + volume + wick + reversal + cooldown + dedup + zone-merging) produces fewer but significantly higher-quality signals with a clean visual footprint.
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔹 METHODOLOGY
Preset modes calibrate the detection engine with one selection:
▪ Aggressive — minimum 2 levels, 0.7 ATR cluster, 1.1× volume, 0.15 ATR wick, 2 bar cooldown.
▪ Balanced — minimum 2 levels, 0.45 ATR cluster, 1.5× volume, 0.3 ATR wick, 5 bar cooldown. Default.
▪ Conservative — minimum 3 levels, 0.35 ATR cluster, 2.0× volume, 0.45 ATR wick, 10 bar cooldown. Premium-only.
▪ Custom — honors manually configured input values.
Level registry with deduplication. The script maintains a live registry of untouched liquidity levels built from four configurable sources. Incoming levels within a configurable ATR tolerance of an existing level are merged. Each level is time-stamped, capped at a configurable maximum count, and pruned once it ages beyond the lookback window or is consumed by a grab.
Cluster detection. On every bar, the engine scans active levels on both sides and classifies a bar as a multi-level sweep candidate when it penetrates the minimum level count whose vertical span fits within the ATR proximity band.
Confirmation layers:
1. Volume spike — grab bar volume must exceed the rolling SMA by the preset multiplier.
2. Wick ratio — rejection wick on the grab side must exceed the preset ATR fraction.
3. Immediate reversal — within a configurable window, price must close back beyond the swept cluster.
4. Cooldown — after a confirmed grab, new detections are suppressed.
Zone overlap-awareness. When a new grab's reversal zone falls within a configurable ATR distance of a recent same-direction zone, the existing zone is extended rather than drawing a new overlapping box. Aggregate targets stay clean.
Quality tier classification. Confirmed grabs are automatically tiered by level count, with 4-level grabs and 5+ level grabs receiving progressively stronger visual emphasis.
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔹 SIGNALS & VISUALS
Confirmed bullish grab — triangle marker below the bar, "LIQ GRAB · N levels swept" label with tier stars for high-quality grabs, and a forward-projected reversal zone above the cluster with a target micro-label.
Confirmed bearish grab — mirror image with bear coloring.
Stagger-aware label placement. When multiple confirmed grabs occur close together on the chart, their labels are automatically offset vertically to prevent visual overlap.
Clean default visual profile. Swept-level strikethrough lines are disabled by default for a premium chart-clean look; enable them for detailed post-grab review. When enabled, a max-age clamp prevents extremely long lines.
Statistics panel (8 rows) — active level count, total grabs, bars since last grab, last grab source composition (dynamic, e.g. "PDL+Swing"), bullish vs bearish breakdown, reversal success rate, and average levels swept per grab.
Alerts — separate alert conditions for bullish and bearish grab confirmations, triggered on bar close.
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔹 KEY INPUTS
Detection Engine
▪ Preset Mode — Aggressive / Balanced / Conservative / Custom.
▪ Minimum Levels Swept, Cluster Proximity, Cooldown — honored in Custom mode.
▪ Level Deduplication (ATR) — merge tolerance for coincident levels.
▪ Level Lookback, Max Active Levels — registry housekeeping.
Liquidity Level Sources — swing highs/lows, session H/L, PDH/PDL, PWH/PWL.
Confirmation Filters — volume multiplier and averaging length, reversal window, minimum wick ratio, ATR length.
Visuals
▪ Toggle labels, strikethroughs, zones, statistics panel.
▪ Label and panel font size (default Normal).
▪ Panel position (8 options) and theme (Dark / Light).
▪ Zone projection length, zone height, zone transparency.
▪ Zone merge distance (ATR-based overlap suppression).
▪ Max strikethrough length (bars).
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔹 HOW TO USE
1. Start with Balanced preset on any timeframe. The ATR-based cluster logic adapts automatically, but 15m–4H timeframes on liquid instruments produce the cleanest signal set.
2. Switch to Conservative for premium-only signals at key institutional levels, or Aggressive when scalping intraday liquidity dynamics.
3. Watch for grab labels near well-defined liquidity clusters — session opens, PDH/PDL interactions, and at range edges. Tiered grabs (4+ levels raided in one bar) deserve special attention.
4. Use the reversal projection zone as a reference target area, not a mechanical take-profit. Combine with your existing structure, order blocks, or mean-reversion levels.
5. Check the "Last Sources" panel row to see which specific liquidity pools were raided most recently.
6. For detailed post-grab analysis, enable "Show Swept Level Strikethroughs" in the Visuals group. For a clean chart, leave disabled.
7. For fine-grained control, select Custom mode and adjust each filter manually.
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔹 LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
▪ No repaint on confirmed signals — grabs are finalized only after the reversal window closes with all filters passing. Swing pivots used as level sources are inherently delayed by the pivot length (standard pivot behavior).
▪ The reversal success metric uses a fixed 1 ATR / 10 bar definition and is provided as context only. It is not a performance claim or win rate.
▪ In strongly trending markets, multi-level sweeps can occur without reversal, producing failed grabs. The filter stack reduces but does not eliminate this.
▪ On very low-liquidity symbols or extremely short timeframes, volume data can be noisy. Consider disabling the volume filter in those conditions.
▪ Session, PDH/PDL, and PWH/PWL levels are derived from the chart symbol's native session definition.

Asian Range Liquidity Map [AGPro Series]Asian Range Liquidity Map
🔹 OVERVIEW
Asian Range Liquidity Map is a precision tool for ICT and smart-money traders who focus on the London Open liquidity sweep. The indicator maps the Asian session high/low liquidity pool, tracks which side gets taken on the London kill-zone, and keeps a rolling 60-session record of post-sweep reactions. The engine calculates live Reversal / Continuation / Mixed probabilities for both bull and bear sweeps and displays everything in a compact info panel without cluttering the chart.
Whether you trade Turtle Soup setups, session-based liquidity grabs, or simply want clean Asian range context, this indicator gives you the structural read most traders spend months building manually.
🔹 UNIQUE EDGE
This is not another session-box plotter. Three design choices separate it from generic Asian range indicators:
1. ATR-Normalized Quality Filter — the range width is measured against the Daily ATR, not the chart timeframe. Sessions that are abnormally narrow (illiquid) or abnormally wide (news-driven noise) are filtered out of the statistics engine automatically. Only clean, tradable ranges count.
2. Live Historical Statistics Engine — every past sweep in the 60-session rolling window is classified as Reversal, Continuation, or Mixed using close-based validation. When a new sweep fires, a state label immediately shows the historical bias: "Bull Sweep -> Historical Reversal 73% (n=26)". You see the context the moment price reacts.
3. Three-Tier Classification — most tools treat sweep reactions as a binary outcome. This engine separates clean reversals, clean continuations, and indecisive mixed responses, giving a more honest statistical picture. The Mixed bucket is visible in the panel so the trader always knows how confident the signal actually is.
🔹 METHODOLOGY
1. Session Tracking — the Asian window is tracked using pure UTC hour/minute math (default 00:00-08:00 UTC), fully independent of chart timezone. Start and end hours are configurable.
2. Range Validity — on session close, the range width is compared to the Daily ATR. If the ratio falls outside the user-defined band (default 0.3-2.0 x dATR), the session is marked Filtered Out and excluded from statistics.
3. Sweep Detection — after the session closes, the engine watches a configurable post-open window (default 6 hours) for the first break of the Asian High or Low. Only the first sweep per session is recorded, which keeps the sample clean.
4. Reaction Classification — after the reaction window (default 10 bars), the engine evaluates post-sweep closes:
- Reversal: price closed through the opposite side by at least Reversal Threshold x Range
- Continuation: price sustained past the sweep level with pullback under Continuation Threshold x Range
- Mixed: neither condition was met
5. Rolling Sample — the most recent 60 classified sweeps feed the Bull and Bear statistics independently. Default is 60, configurable from 20 to 100.
🔹 SIGNALS AND ON-CHART ELEMENTS
- Asian Range Box: dotted amber rectangle during the session, solidifies on close if the range passes the ATR filter. Filtered sessions fade to near-invisible.
- High and Low Dotted Extensions: projected right from each validated session, showing the liquidity levels the market will target.
- Sweep State Label: appears on the bar that first breaks the range. Color-coded green for bull sweeps, pink for bear sweeps, with the historical bias and sample size baked in.
- Sweep Line: thick horizontal line at the taken level, drawn forward across the projection zone.
- Projection Zone: rectangular post-sweep forecast box where follow-through (or rejection) typically plays out.
- Multi-Day Overlay: up to the last 5 validated Asian ranges rendered with fade hierarchy (oldest most faded, newest most visible).
- Three alerts are included: Bull Sweep Detected, Bear Sweep Detected, and London Open with Valid Asian Range.
🔹 KEY INPUTS
Session Settings:
- Asian Session Start/End Hour (UTC)
- Sweep Detection Window (hours after London Open)
Quality Filter:
- Use ATR filter (on/off)
- Min and Max Range Width (x Daily ATR)
- ATR Length
Historical Stats Engine:
- Sample Size (20-100 sessions)
- Reaction Window (bars after sweep)
- Reversal Threshold (x Range)
- Continuation Threshold (x Range)
Multi-Day Overlay:
- Show historical sessions (on/off)
- Days to show and fade intensity
Post-Sweep Projection:
- Show projection zone (on/off)
- Projection length in bars
Visual Style:
- Label Font Size (independent from panel)
- Show sweep state label (on/off)
Info Panel:
- Show panel, location, theme (Dark/Light)
- Panel Font Size (independent from labels)
🔹 HOW TO USE
Best fit: intraday timeframes from 1m to 60m. The 15m chart is the intended sweet spot and what the defaults are tuned around. The script auto-disables on 4H and higher with a clear on-chart notice.
Typical workflow:
1. Confirm Range Status shows Valid after the Asian session closes. If Filtered Out, stand aside that day.
2. Wait for the London Sweep Window state and watch the Asian High/Low levels.
3. When a sweep fires, read the state label. A high Reversal probability near a major higher-timeframe level often flags a Turtle Soup opportunity. A high Continuation probability suggests fading is risky and trend-aligned entries are preferred.
4. Use the projection zone as a post-sweep attention area, not a target in itself.
5. Cross-check with your own higher-timeframe bias, volume, and structure before committing.
🔹 LIMITATIONS AND TRANSPARENCY
- This is a context tool, not a strategy. No buy/sell signals are generated and no backtest or performance claim is made.
- The historical percentages shown are descriptive statistics of recent price behavior in the sample window. They describe what has happened, not what will happen. A reading like 80% Reversal means four out of five prior sweeps in the sample reversed; the fifth did not.
- On strongly trending or low-volatility instruments, distributions can skew heavily to one category. For example, on a tight range-bound market a liquidity sweep almost always reverts, producing very high Reversal readings. This is a feature of the data, not a bug. If a distribution looks extreme, tighten the Reversal Threshold and shorten the Reaction Window for a stricter definition, or widen them for a looser one.
- Request.security is used to pull Daily ATR and is evaluated without lookahead; no future data is used.
- First-run sample size will be small until the chart has enough history to fill 60 sessions. Expect the panel to show progress like 18 / 60 until the buffer fills.
🔹 RISK DISCLOSURE
This indicator is a research and analysis tool for educational purposes. It does not constitute financial advice, a recommendation, or a solicitation to buy or sell any asset. Past behavior of liquidity sweeps does not guarantee future outcomes. Trading carries substantial risk of loss. Always perform your own analysis, apply risk management that suits your account, and consult a qualified professional before making financial decisions. Indicator
Indicator
Rejection Block Quality [AGPro Series]Rejection Block Quality
🔹 OVERVIEW
Rejection Block Quality is an ICT-inspired detector that identifies long-wick rejection candles at swept swing pivots and grades each block by objective quality criteria. Unlike Order Block logic — which anchors to the last opposite-direction body before displacement — a Rejection Block (RB) is born from a wick that pierces a prior swing liquidity pool and closes back inside it, with the body confirming displacement on the follow-through bar. The rectangle is drawn from the wick base to the candle body, capturing the exact zone where smart money absorbed the sweep.
🎯 UNIQUE EDGE
Three design choices separate this tool from generic wick or order block indicators:
• Swing-pivot sweep requirement — a rejection is only counted when price sweeps a confirmed swing high or low before the reversal close. Stand-alone wick patterns without liquidity context are filtered out.
• Displacement confirmation window — the candle following the rejection must travel at least 0.6× ATR in the reversal direction, within a 1–5 bar lookahead. No displacement, no block.
• Quality tiering (A / B / C) from three orthogonal factors — wick-to-body ratio, displacement magnitude, and untested freshness. An exceptional wick ratio (≥5× body) promotes a block to A tier regardless of other scores, preserving rare high-conviction rejections.
🛠️ METHODOLOGY
Detection pipeline on every bar:
1. Confirm a pivot sweep using a user-configurable lookback (default 5 bars each side).
2. Check the wick-to-body ratio against a minimum threshold (default 1.8×), with the dominant wick on the sweep side.
3. Queue the candle as a pending block and wait for displacement confirmation.
4. Measure displacement as price travel from the body reference over 1 to 5 bars, normalized by ATR.
5. On confirmation, draw the RB zone from the wick base to the body, record the tier, and begin lifecycle tracking.
Zone lifecycle tracks four events — test (price enters the zone), hold (price exits without a body close through the far edge), break (body close through the far edge), and near miss (price approaches within a configurable ATR band without entering). All events are edge-detected to prevent inflated counts when price lingers near a zone.
📊 SIGNALS & ALERTS
• New block formation label — A / B / C tier plus wick ratio, placed with anti-collision offset.
• Test markers (T) — one per zone entry event, with cooldown to prevent visual clutter.
• Break markers (B) — placed when a zone is invalidated by a body close.
• Wick border highlight — thick colored line on the originating rejection candle.
• Alerts — configurable minimum tier (A, B, or C) fires once per bar close for each qualifying new block.
⚙️ KEY INPUTS
• Detection — Pivot Length, Min Wick-to-Body Ratio, ATR Length, Min Displacement (× ATR), Displacement Confirm Window.
• Zone Management — Max Active Zones per Side, Zone Right Extension, Near-Miss Distance, Near-Miss Cooldown, Break Requires Full Body Close.
• Visuals — Show Zones, Show Tier Labels, Highlight Rejection Wick Border, Show Test / Hold / Break Markers, Zone Fill Opacity, Label Font Size.
• Panel — Show Panel, Panel Location, Panel Font Size, Panel Theme (Dark / Light).
• Alerts — Minimum Tier for Alerts.
🧭 HOW TO USE
Start on a higher timeframe (4H or 1D) to identify macro RB zones, then drill down to execution timeframes for entries. Treat A-tier blocks as the highest-conviction zones, B-tier as situational, and C-tier as context-only. Combine with trend filters, higher-timeframe structure, and risk management — a Rejection Block is a zone of interest, not a standalone buy or sell signal. Use the panel statistics to evaluate how the selected symbol and timeframe have historically respected these zones before committing to them in live decision-making.
⚠️ LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
This indicator is a structural detector, not a trading strategy. It does not forecast price direction, generate entry or exit orders, or calculate position sizing. The Success Rate statistic reflects how often past tests on detected zones held versus failed within the visible history — it is a descriptive metric, not a performance projection. Zone detection is historical and reactive: a block only appears after the displacement bar closes, so interpretation on live-forming bars is tentative. Performance varies by symbol, timeframe, and market regime.
⚠️ RISK DISCLOSURE
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past behavior of any pattern does not guarantee future outcomes. Use this tool as part of a complete analytical framework that includes your own risk management, position sizing, and broader market context. Nothing in this indicator or description constitutes financial advice. Indicator
Turtle Soup Reversal Map [AGPro Series]Turtle Soup Reversal Map
🔹 Overview
Turtle Soup Reversal Map is a mean-reversion pattern detector inspired by Linda Raschke's classic "Turtle Soup" setup — a counter-attack on failed 20-bar breakouts. When price pierces a multi-bar extreme and then closes back inside the prior range, institutional traders often interpret it as trapped breakout participants being flushed. This script automates the detection, qualifies each setup with a transparent 0–100 score, and projects a reference target alongside an auto-resolving rejection zone. It is designed for traders who want a disciplined, rule-based way to spot failed breakouts without drawing them manually.
🔹 Unique Edge
Unlike generic liquidity-sweep or wick-rejection indicators, Turtle Soup Reversal Map is built around Raschke's specific 20-bar-extreme rule — a pattern with decades of documented performance in swing-trading literature. Three characteristics separate it from similar tools:
• Strict N-bar-extreme definition (not a simple swing-high/low fade). Price must violate the exact prior-lookback extreme, not just a minor pivot.
• Five-component adaptive quality score — wick rejection, volume spike, overshoot magnitude, higher-timeframe trend alignment, and key-level proximity. Each component is a transparent weighted contribution, with clear A+ / A / B / C grades.
• Full lifecycle state engine — Pending → Fired → Target/Stop/Invalidated. Setups that do not confirm within their window are auto-invalidated (not left hanging), and live win-rate plus average R-multiple are tracked over the most recent resolved setups.
🔹 Methodology
The script continuously monitors for price piercing the highest high or lowest low of the prior N bars (default 20, range 10–50). When a sweep occurs, a Pending setup is created. Confirmation is then evaluated in one of two user-selectable modes:
• Same-Bar Close — the violating bar must close back inside the prior range on the same bar (faster, more signals).
• Next-Bar Close — Raschke's original specification; the next bar must close back inside the prior range (slower, higher reliability).
If confirmation fires, the setup becomes Fired and a reference target is projected from the confirmation close (default 2.5 × ATR(14)). Stop is placed at the sweep extreme plus a configurable ATR buffer. Setups that fail to confirm within their window, or where price overshoots the stop before confirmation, are automatically invalidated.
The quality score blends: wick-to-range ratio at the extreme bar, relative volume spike versus its 20-bar average, overshoot magnitude (ATR-normalized with a sweet-spot curve), counter-trend alignment against a user-defined higher timeframe, and proximity to round numbers or recent pivot levels.
🔹 Signals & Alerts
The script produces three alert types, all configurable:
• Pending — sweep detected, awaiting confirmation.
• Fired — confirmation closed back inside prior range.
• Invalidated — setup dismissed due to overshoot or window timeout.
Each alert message includes direction (Bull/Bear), current grade, ticker, and timeframe. Fired setups are visualized with a labeled confirmation marker, a dashed target-projection line, a dotted stop-reference line, and an auto-closing rejection zone. Labels display the Soup-Bull / Soup-Bear name, grade, and numeric score.
🔹 Key Inputs
• Lookback Bars — size of the extreme window (default 20, range 10–50).
• Confirmation Mode — Same-Bar Close or Next-Bar Close.
• Invalidation Distance (ATR) — stop buffer beyond the sweep extreme (default 0.5).
• Target Projection (ATR) — reference reversal target distance from entry (default 2.5).
• Quality Score Components — each of the five score components can be toggled independently for custom configurations.
• HTF for Trend — higher timeframe used for the trend-alignment component (default 240 min).
• Stats Sample Size — rolling window of resolved setups used for win-rate and average reward metrics (default 30).
• Visual & Panel Options — zones, lines, labels, target projection, panel location, font sizes, and per-element toggles.
🔹 How to Use
1. Apply to any liquid instrument and timeframe. The pattern's rule set is symbol-agnostic but performs differently across assets — review the live Win Rate and Avg Reward metrics in the panel to calibrate expectations.
2. Watch the Status field in the panel. Idle means no active setup; Pending Bull/Bear means a sweep has occurred and the script is waiting for confirmation; Fired Bull/Bear means confirmation closed and a target has been projected.
3. Filter setups by grade. A+ and A setups have stronger confluence — particularly wick rejection, volume, and HTF alignment. B setups are acceptable under favorable market regimes; C grades are educational only.
4. Treat the target projection as a reference, not a trade instruction. The stop reference line marks where the structural invalidation lies. Always combine with your own risk management.
5. The historical Win Rate is computed over the last N resolved setups on the current chart; it reflects the pattern's fit with the current symbol and timeframe, not a guarantee.
🔹 Limitations & Transparency
This indicator identifies historical setups algorithmically. It does not predict future price movement, and no indicator does. Turtle Soup is a counter-trend mean-reversion pattern — in strong trending regimes, false signals increase; in consolidation and range-bound conditions, it performs best. The displayed Win Rate and Avg Reward are historical, rolling, chart-dependent, and should not be interpreted as future expectations. Target and stop references are geometric projections based on ATR, not optimized parameters.

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

Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) Engine [AGPro Series]Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) Engine
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
OVERVIEW
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) Engine detects high-probability liquidity sweep
events at prior swing highs and lows. An SFP occurs when price pierces a
recent swing level with a long wick but closes back inside the prior range,
signalling failed continuation and potential mean reversion. Each event is
scored on four components, drawn as a mid-sized support/resistance reaction
zone, and tracked through its live cycle — with panel statistics on MFE,
MAE, and hit rate. Designed for visual pattern reading and confluence;
not a buy/sell system.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
UNIQUE EDGE
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Most SFP indicators mark the sweep candle and stop there. This engine treats
each SFP as a living support/resistance band: the zone extends to the right
every bar and only freezes when the swept level is actually broken on close.
That preserves the SR context that traders use in real decisions, without
cluttering charts with zones that never die. A composite score (0-100),
confluence grouping of nearby events within 0.5 ATR, and live MFE/MAE
tracking in ATR units turn a common pattern into a measurable framework.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
METHODOLOGY
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Swing detection uses pivot highs and lows confirmed by a configurable
lookback. An SFP is confirmed on bar close when four conditions are met:
1. The bar wicks beyond a prior unswept swing high (bearish) or swing low
(bullish) within the active lookback window.
2. The close reclaims the prior range by at least the user-defined ATR
distance (default 0.25 ATR).
3. The sweep-side wick represents at least the minimum wick ratio of total
bar range (default 55 percent).
4. Bar volume exceeds its 20-period SMA by the configured multiplier
(optional, default 1.15x).
Composite score (0-100) weights wick ratio (40), reclaim distance in ATR
(30), volume confirmation (15), and swing age (15). Only events above the
minimum score threshold are drawn. Each confirmed SFP removes its swept
swing from the active array to prevent re-triggering on the same level.
Confluence grouping merges same-side events within 0.5 ATR into a single
labelled zone with an x2, x3 count.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
SIGNALS & ALERTS
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Visual signals on chart:
- State-coloured label at the sweep bar reading Bull SFP or Bear SFP with
the composite score (e.g., Bull SFP 74). Confluence-grouped events are
suffixed with the merge count (e.g., Bear SFP 81 x2).
- Rectangular zone spanning the swept level and the SFP close, with a
small ATR buffer. The zone extends right each bar while active and
freezes in neutral grey when the swept level breaks.
- Dotted horizontal line marking the swept swing level.
- Dashed projection line indicating the reversal direction.
Alert conditions:
- Bullish SFP: fires on the confirmation bar of a bullish event above
the score threshold.
- Bearish SFP: same, for bearish events.
- Zone Invalidation (optional): fires when an active zone's swept level
is broken on close.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
KEY INPUTS
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Detection:
- Swing Pivot Length - bars each side of a pivot (default 5).
- Swing Lookback - how far back active swings are tracked (default 120).
- Min Wick Ratio - minimum sweep wick as fraction of bar range (0.55).
- Min Reclaim Distance (ATR) - how far close must reclaim (0.25 ATR).
- Require Above-Average Volume and Volume Multiplier (default 1.15x).
- ATR Length (default 14).
Scoring & Filters:
- Min SFP Score (default 55 of 100).
- Max Active Zones retained on chart (default 8).
- Stats Timeout - bars after which an unresolved event is counted in
averages (default 30). Does not affect zone visibility.
Visuals:
- Zone transparency (default 80), confluence grouping distance (0.5 ATR),
label size, and toggles for zones, swing lines, and reversal projections.
Panel:
- Location (8 options), Dark/Light theme, text size.
Alerts:
- Independent toggles for bullish, bearish, and invalidation alerts.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
HOW TO USE
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Apply the indicator to any chart and timeframe. Higher timeframes (1h and
above) produce cleaner swings; lower timeframes require a higher Min Wick
Ratio and Min Score to filter noise.
Read SFPs as liquidity sweep events, not standalone entries. A bullish SFP
below a prior swing low indicates that sellers failed to extend the move —
often a location where larger participants accumulate. The score reflects
sweep quality; higher scores (70+) generally correspond to cleaner
rejections. Use the zone as a support/resistance reference until it is
invalidated.
Panel statistics describe the observed sample on the loaded chart, not a
backtested system. MFE Hit Rate is the percent of resolved zones that
reached 1 ATR in the SFP direction before the swept level broke — it is a
quality reference, not a win rate for any trading strategy.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- Signals confirm on bar close; intrabar conditions may change until close.
- Pivot detection introduces a natural bars-of-right-context lag equal to
the Pivot Length. This is intrinsic to any pivot-based approach.
- Panel statistics reflect events visible on the current chart load and
will vary with timeframe, symbol, and bar range.
- MFE Hit Rate is not a profit expectation. It measures whether price
moved 1 ATR in the SFP direction before the swept level broke.
- Volume confirmation uses chart volume and may behave differently on
symbols with inconsistent volume data.
- The indicator uses standard Pine Script drawing objects. Chart reload
may reset ephemeral visual states of resolved zones.

EQH/EQL Liquidity Zones [LuxAlgo]The EQH/EQL Liquidity Zones indicator automatically detects and tracks Equal Highs (EQH) and Equal Lows (EQL) to identify significant areas of resting liquidity. It provides a visual framework for understanding where market participants have placed stop-orders, offering dynamic targets for price action to gravitate toward and eventually "sweep."
🔶 USAGE
Equal Highs and Equal Lows are key structural patterns used in Smart Money Concepts (SMC) to represent liquidity. When price forms two or more peaks or troughs at approximately the same price level, it creates a "retail" resistance or support line. The script highlights these as zones, as price often seeks to move beyond these levels to activate the liquidity (stop-orders) residing there.
🔹 Identifying Liquidity
The script scans historical pivots to find matching prices within a user-defined threshold. When a match is found, a zone is drawn from the original pivot point and extended until the level is "swept" (price moves above an EQH or below an EQL).
🔹 Volume and Clusters
To help traders prioritize zones, the indicator displays the volume associated with the specific pivot points forming the liquidity. If multiple liquidity zones are situated very close to one another, the script dynamically merges their labels to show a "cluster" count (e.g., 2x EQH) and the total accumulated volume at that level.
🔹 Sweep Behavior
Once price breaches the maximum high or minimum low of a zone, the zone is considered "swept." Users can choose to have these zones deleted immediately or kept on the chart with a greyed-out visual style to study historical price reactions.
🔶 DETAILS
The indicator uses a pivot-based detection system combined with a percentage-based threshold. This ensures that even if two highs are not exactly equal to the decimal point, they can still be classified as Equal Highs if they are within a tight proximity (the "Equality Threshold").
The script tracks "Active Zones" up to a configurable limit. For high-volatility environments or lower timeframes (like the 1m chart), users can increase the maximum active zones to ensure all relevant resting liquidity is accounted for during fast-moving market conditions.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Liquidity Detection
Pivot Left/Right Length: Determines the number of bars required to confirm a structural high or low.
Equality Threshold (%): The maximum percentage difference allowed between two pivots to classify them as "Equal."
Max Active Zones: Controls the maximum number of unswept zones tracked simultaneously.
🔹 Visuals
Bullish/Bearish Zone Color: Sets the colors for EQL (supportive liquidity) and EQH (resistance liquidity).
Zone Transparency: Adjusts the opacity of the liquidity boxes.
Show Midline: Toggles a dashed line at the average price of the equal pivots.
Show Volume: Displays the volume captured at the specific pivot points.
Delete on Sweep: If enabled, removes the zone from the chart immediately once price breaches the level.
