ICT Manipulation Detector

This indicator detects ICT-style manipulations, liquidity sweeps (stop hunts), and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) automatically on the chart.
🔍 What It Does:
Identifies key highs and lows as liquidity zones.
Detects stop hunts above highs or below lows.
If the price move is large enough, marks it as a manipulation.
Highlights Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) where price might return.
Shows all events visually with boxes, lines, and alerts.
📌 Visuals:
🟩 Green box = Bullish manipulation → “DON’T SELL”
🟥 Red box = Bearish manipulation → “DON’T BUY”
🟨 Yellow dashed lines = Liquidity levels
🔼 / 🔽 Arrows = Sweeps without full manipulation
In short: It automatically detects and warns you of smart money manipulation based on ICT concepts.
