Shamji's Liquidity Sweep + FVG (Follow-up + Filters)
Purpose (what it does)
This indicator looks for two related price structures used by many smart-money / liquidity-hunt traders:
Liquidity Sweeps — candles that wick beyond a recent swing high (for buy-side stop-hunts) or swing low (for sell-side stop-hunts), then close back inside. These are flagged as potential stop-hunt events that clear obvious liquidity.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) — simple 3-bar style gaps where an older bar’s high is below the current low (bullish FVG) or an older bar’s low is above the current high (bearish FVG). When an FVG appears after a sweep (within a configurable window), this is considered a follow-up alignment.
The script adds optional filters (volume spike and candle-range vs ATR) to increase confidence, and can restrict marking/alerts to only events that meet the follow-up and filter rules.
