Kairi Trend Oscillator [T3][T69]📌 Overview The Kairi Trend Oscillator is a Japanese-inspired hybrid oscillator combining Heikin-Ashi trend clarity with the Kairi (乖離率) indicator — a measure of price deviation from a moving average. This dual-layer system gives you both trend direction and trend strength/health, designed to highlight trend maturity and avoid overextended entries. ✨ Features Heikin-Ashi or normal candlestick input modes Multiple moving average options: SMA, EMA, DEMA, VWMA, and Kijun Visual color-coded trend zones: overbought, oversold, healthy, weak, and reversal conditions Full Kairi column plot with dynamic coloring Adaptive logic for trend detection (linear regression or Heikin-Ashi structure) Built-in reversal detection based on divergence between Kairi and trend direction ⚙️ How to Use Choose Candle Type: Select Heiken Ashi or Normal Candlesticks via the Candle Mode dropdown. Select Source: Choose open, high, low, or close as the input for Kairi computation. Set MA Type & Length: Configure the moving average mode and its length under Moving Average Settings. Interpret the Plot: Green/Red bars: Show Kairi oscillator values above/below 0 Background color: Shows current trend (green = uptrend, red = downtrend) Candle color overlays: 🟩 Teal = Overextended Bulls 🟥 Maroon = Overextended Bears ✅ Green = Healthy Uptrend 🔻 Red = Healthy Downtrend 🟨 Light tones = Weak trends 🔄 Blue/Fuchsia = Possible reversal detected 🔧 Configuration Inputs: Candle Mode: Heiken Ashi or Normal Candle Sticks Source: Open, High, Low, Close MA Mode: SMA, EMA, DEMA, VWMA, or Kijun MA Length: Default is 29 🧪 Advanced Tips Use Heikin-Ashi mode for better trend smoothing. Kairi divergence (e.g., bullish Kairi in a downtrend) may signal upcoming reversal — watch for blue or fuchsia bars. Combine with momentum indicators (e.g. RSI or MACD) for confluence-based setups. For mean reversion strategies, fade extreme Kairi readings (> ±5%). ⚠️ Limitations Not suited for ranging markets without trend. Kairi extremes may remain elevated in strong trends — avoid early counter-trend entries. Reversal logic is not a confirmation signal; use with caution. 📌 Disclaimer This script is educational and illustrative. Always backtest thoroughly before using in live markets.

Coefficient of Variance BarsThe script calculates the Coefficient of Variance (CV), which is the standard deviation (a measure of volatility) divided by the average price over a set period. In simple terms, it tells you how volatile the market is in relation to its current price level. • Highlighting Volatility Increase: By default, the script colors the bars when this relative volatility makes a new high. This suggests that the market is "waking up" and that a significant price move could be starting. • Highlighting Low Volatility (Inverse Mode): When you uncheck the box in the settings, it highlights periods where volatility is not making a new high. This is useful for spotting quiet, consolidating markets. ________________________________________ How to Use It in Trading This indicator is a complementary tool and should be used with other forms of analysis, like price action or trend indicators. 1. Spotting Potential Breakouts The most common use is to anticipate breakouts. When the price is moving in a tight range (consolidation) and you suddenly see a highlighted bar, it signals a surge in volatility. This is often the catalyst that pushes the price out of the range. • Strategy: Look for a period of price consolidation. When a bar is colored, indicating a volatility spike, look for a confirmation of a breakout (e.g., a candle closing above resistance or below support) and consider entering a trade in that direction. 2. Identifying Ranging Markets By switching to the inverse mode, you can easily see when the market is quiet and range-bound. • Strategy: When the bars are consistently highlighted in inverse mode, it confirms a ranging market. This is the ideal environment for strategies that capitalize on sideways movement, such as using oscillators (like RSI or Stochastics) to trade between support and resistance levels. 3. Gauging Trend Strength and Exhaustion In a strong, ongoing trend, you'll likely see intermittent volatility spikes confirming the momentum. However, a sudden, massive spike in volatility after a very long trend might signal a "climax," potentially indicating the trend is exhausted and a reversal could be near.

AMD [TakingProphets]Accumulation Manipulation Distribution – Real-Time HTF Candle Projection for ICT/SMC Traders Accumulation Manipulation Distribution (AMD) is a premium, real-time indicator designed for traders who use ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC). It projects higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly onto your lower timeframe chart, allowing you to monitor institutional price behavior without switching timeframes. By continuously tracking the open, high, low, and close (OHLC) of active HTF candles, AMD helps traders interpret whether the market is in a phase of accumulation, manipulation, or distribution—a key concept for understanding institutional order flow. Core Features and How It Works 1. Live HTF Candle Visualization Displays complete HTF candles — including body and wicks — in real time. Provides immediate higher timeframe context for lower timeframe execution. Supports any timeframe from 1 minute to monthly. 2. Real-Time OHLC Projections Projects the open, high, low, and current close of the active HTF candle as it develops. Acts as evolving reference points for support, resistance, and directional bias. Fully customizable with adjustable colors, line styles, and labels. 3. Session Timing and Labeling Optional time labels mark candle openings and help anticipate session closes. Supports 12-hour and 24-hour formatting for flexibility across markets. 4. Complete Visual Customization Configure candle width, wick transparency, border color, and projection lines. Maintain a clean, professional overlay that aligns with your preferred charting style. How to Use AMD Determine HTF Bias: Identify whether the active candle is expanding in your trade direction or showing signs of rejection. Track Price Reaction: Monitor how price interacts with projected HTF highs, lows, and midpoints—especially during ICT killzones or after liquidity events. Anchor Lower Timeframe Entries: Combine AMD with tools like Order Blocks, Liquidity Levels, or Rejection Blocks to confirm high-probability Smart Money setups. This approach allows traders to synchronize LTF executions with HTF market structure, enhancing clarity and confidence in trade selection.

CRT [TakingProphets]Candle Range Theory (CRT) is an exclusive, closed-source indicator designed for traders who use ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC). It combines higher timeframe (HTF) visualization, Candle Range Transition (CRT) detection, and Smart Money Divergence (SMT) into one cohesive tool, giving traders a structured way to monitor institutional price behavior without switching timeframes. Unlike generic market structure tools, CRT was built from the ground up to help traders: Keep higher timeframe context visible directly on lower timeframe charts Identify potential transition or rejection points in real time Visualize correlated market divergences that are often invisible to the naked eye This original approach is what makes CRT a premium, invite-only indicator. It is not a repackaged combination of common moving averages, oscillators, or support/resistance tools. It’s a specialized model designed to consolidate multiple ICT/SMC concepts into one workflow-friendly system. How CRT Works 1. Higher Timeframe Candle Overlay Projects up to three higher timeframe candles (1-minute to monthly) onto your active chart. Displays open, high, low, and close with wick and body precision. Lets you trade the lower timeframe with higher timeframe bias always visible. 2. Candle Range Transition (CRT) Detection A Bearish CRT is detected when the current candle forms a higher high but closes lower than the previous candle. A Bullish CRT occurs when the current candle forms a lower low but closes higher than the previous candle. These transitions often highlight areas where price fails to continue its prior move, signaling a potential shift in delivery. 3. Smart Money Divergence (SMT) Monitors correlated instruments (e.g., ES vs NQ, EURUSD vs GBPUSD). Flags divergence when one instrument confirms a move while the other hesitates or rejects it. SMT signals appear in real time, helping traders filter potential liquidity traps or engineered moves. 4. Real-Time HTF Candle Projections Continuously plots the projected open, high, low, and close of the current HTF candle. Acts as evolving reference points for support/resistance or decision-making zones. 5. Custom Display and Info Box Fully configurable candle width, wick colors, label sizes, and transparency. Built-in info box shows symbol, selected HTF timeframe, and session date for chart clarity. 6. Integrated Alert System Four alert types: • Bullish CRT • Bearish CRT • Bullish SMT Divergence • Bearish SMT Divergence Alerts help you track multiple instruments without staring at the screen all day. Why CRT is Exclusive and Worth It Most market structure indicators either plot generic support/resistance or recycle concepts already available in open-source scripts. CRT is original because: It consolidates multiple ICT/SMC concepts (HTF bias, CRT transitions, SMT divergence) into one cohesive model. It uses a proprietary visualization and detection method designed specifically for real-time application. It provides clarity without chart clutter, allowing traders to make faster, more structured decisions. While CRT does not execute trades or guarantee profits, it gives serious traders a unique analytical edge by revealing subtle higher timeframe and intermarket dynamics in real time. If you understand ICT principles and Smart Money Concepts, CRT provides a workflow upgrade that simply isn’t available in free or generic scripts.

Prophet Model [TakingProphets]Indicator Description The Prophet Model is a structured, logic-driven indicator designed specifically for traders familiar with ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodologies. Built to streamline the analytical workflow, this tool integrates multiple Smart Money Concepts into a clear and actionable trading framework, simplifying the identification of high-probability setups without chart clutter. What Does This Indicator Do? The Prophet Model guides traders by dynamically identifying and visually aligning key components of ICT methodology: Higher Time Frame (HTF) PD Array Identification: Automatically locates and maps critical Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) from higher timeframes onto your lower timeframe charts, clearly highlighting institutional areas of interest. Candle Range Theory (CRT) Validation: Monitors higher timeframe candles to detect shifts in market delivery, confirming directional bias according to ICT Candle Range Theory. Liquidity Sweep Detection: Precisely identifies buy-side and sell-side liquidity sweeps within marked HTF zones, clearly highlighting areas where price is likely to reverse or continue. Change in State of Delivery (CISD): Pinpoints the exact moment when market structure shifts via significant displacement, providing a clear reference point for trade entries. Overlapping Fair Value Gap (FVG) Refinement: Enhances entry precision by automatically adjusting entry points (EPE) when internal gaps overlap the CISD candle. Risk Management Levels: Dynamically calculates and plots your Stop Loss (SL), Break-Even (BE), and Take Profit (TP) levels based on actual structural movements (2.25x CISD range for TP, recent highs/lows for SL). Real-Time Setup Checklist: Provides a dynamic visual checklist confirming when all entry criteria (HTF PDA, CRT, Liquidity Sweep, CISD) are met. Optimal Entry Tracking: Marks refined entry points after CISD confirmation, automatically adjusting when internal imbalances (FVGs) are detected, ensuring accurate and efficient entries. Chart Info Box: Optionally displays complete symbol, timeframe, and indicator name for transparent chart annotations and efficient trade journaling. How Does It Work? Identify HTF Institutional Interest: The indicator scans higher timeframes for unmitigated FVGs, displaying these critical zones automatically on your trading timeframe. Confirm Market Delivery Shift (CRT): Confirms directional conviction by comparing the range and behavior of recent higher timeframe candles. Detect Liquidity Sweeps: Clearly marks liquidity levels that have been swept, signaling potential price reversals or continuations. Spot Displacement & Structure Shifts (CISD): Highlights decisive movements indicating a significant change in market direction, crucial for entry timing. Precision Entry Adjustments (EPE): Refines entry positions by identifying overlapping FVGs within the displacement candle structure. Manage Risk Clearly: Calculates realistic SL, BE, and TP levels based on structural price action, removing guesswork and improving consistency. Why Is It Worth Paying For? Simplified Confluence-Building: Removes ambiguity by automatically aligning multiple ICT criteria into a single, easy-to-follow visual workflow. Precision & Efficiency: Improves execution timing by dynamically updating entry and risk management levels based on actual market structure rather than arbitrary measures. Real-Time Adaptation: Continuously updates as market conditions evolve, providing confidence and clarity in dynamic trading environments. Focused Trading Decisions: Keeps traders disciplined by visually confirming setups step-by-step, aligning trades only with strong institutional-backed movements. Important Considerations This indicator is intended for traders with foundational knowledge of ICT methodologies. It is not a standalone buy/sell signal provider; it must be combined with proper risk management and market narrative analysis. Always use discretion and confirm the context of each trade within your overall trading strategy. By providing traders with actionable insights and clear visual confirmations aligned strictly with professional ICT concepts, the Prophet Model significantly enhances trading decisions and execution precision.

Summary: Why This Indicator is Powerful (Simplified & Deepened) The IB/IS + SMC Indicator is a game-changer for traders because it combines powerful tools to track smart money (institutional activity) and make trading decisions easier, more accurate, and adaptable to any trading style. Here’s why it stands out, explained simply and deeply: • Multi-Timeframe Pattern Logic: Understands Institutional Moves Across Charts o The indicator analyzes price action on multiple timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 1-hour, daily) to spot where big players like banks and hedge funds are buying (IB) or selling (IS). o By combining higher timeframe (HTF) context (big-picture trends) with lower timeframe (LTF) precision (entry points), it ensures you’re trading in line with the market’s true direction. o Why It Matters: This prevents you from being tricked by short-term price noise and aligns your trades with the institutional intent, increasing your win rate. • Auto Entry, Stop Loss, and Target Planning: Trade Without Guesswork o The indicator automatically plots entry points, stop losses (SL), and take-profit (TP) levels based on IB/IS zones and Risk:Reward ratios. o It also shows percentage gain/loss and calculates in-the-money (ITM) strike prices for options or futures trading. o Why It Matters: You don’t need to manually calculate or draw levels, saving time and reducing errors. It’s like having a pro trader’s blueprint for every trade. • Mitigation Control: Clean Charts, Focused Trading o Once a zone is revisited or broken (mitigated), the indicator removes it from the chart to avoid clutter. o This ensures you only focus on valid, active zones where institutions are still likely to act. o Why It Matters: A clean chart prevents confusion and stops you from trading outdated or low-probability setups, keeping your strategy sharp. • Mode-Based Settings: Fits Any Trading Style o Offers three modes—Conservative, Aggressive, and Manual—to match your trading style (scalping, swing trading, or long-term investing). o Conservative Mode: Stricter filters for high-confidence trades. o Aggressive Mode: Faster signals for quick scalping. o Manual Mode: Lets you customize settings for full control. o Why It Matters: Whether you’re a fast-paced day trader or a patient investor, the indicator adapts to your needs, making it versatile and user-friendly. • No Repainting Logic: Trustworthy Signals for Live Trading o The indicator’s signals don’t change after they appear (no repainting), ensuring reliability in real-time trading. o It uses real-time data like volume, candle strength, and structure to confirm signals, avoiding false or misleading setups. o Why It Matters: You can trust the signals to make confident decisions, especially in fast-moving markets, without worrying about the indicator “cheating” by redrawing past signals. • Combined Power of Tools: A Complete Institutional Trading Toolkit o The indicator integrates institutional volume analysis (tracking big money moves), market structure detection (CHoCH, BOS), Fair Value Gaps (FVG) (price inefficiencies), premium/discount zones (best entry prices), and mitigation tracking (zone validity). o Together, these tools create a holistic system that mimics how institutions trade, giving you an edge over retail traders. o Why It Matters: Instead of juggling multiple indicators, you get one powerful tool that combines everything needed to spot high-probability trades, plan entries/exits, and stay aligned with smart money. ________________________________________ Overall Advantage (Simplified & Deep) This indicator is like having a smart money GPS for trading. It doesn’t just show you where institutions are buying or selling—it gives you the exact tools to trade alongside them with confidence. By combining multi-timeframe analysis, automatic trade planning, clean chart management, flexible settings, and reliable signals, it simplifies complex institutional strategies into an easy-to-use, all-in-one system. Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, this indicator helps you trade smarter, avoid traps, and capture high-probability opportunities with precision. Disclaimer: This indicator is for informational and analytical purposes only and does not provide trade recommendations or financial advice. Trading involves significant risks, and users should conduct their own research, consider their risk tolerance, and consult a financial advisor before making trading decisions. The indicator’s signals are based on historical and real-time data, and past performance does not guarantee future results.

Innotrade ICT SuiteInnotrade ICT Suite: The All-in-One Market Structure & Liquidity Toolkit This script is provided completely free and is open-source. We believe in transparency and community collaboration. You are welcome to review, learn from, and adapt the code to your needs. 1. Vision and Justification Many modern trading strategies, particularly those based on "Inner Circle Trader" (ICT) concepts, require a confluent view of the market. Traders often need to layer multiple indicators to track market structure, identify liquidity gaps, and spot reversal patterns. This leads to a cluttered chart and the mental overhead of synthesizing information from separate sources. The Innotrade ICT Suite was developed to solve this problem. It is not merely a "mashup" of existing indicators; it is an integrated analytical framework designed to provide a clean, holistic view of the key elements of ICT methodology on a single chart. By combining these specific concepts, the suite allows traders to see the interplay between market structure shifts and liquidity dynamics, which is the core of this trading style. The primary purpose is to enhance a trader's efficiency by visualizing how these distinct concepts work together to form high-probability trade ideas. 2. Core Features & Underlying Concepts This suite integrates several critical trading concepts, each visualized to aid in rapid and effective decision-making. Market Structure The indicator automatically identifies and plots key structural points, which form the foundation of any trend analysis. Change of Character (ChoCh): A "ChoCh" signals a potential reversal in the short-term order flow. A bullish ChoCh occurs when a prior lower high is broken to the upside, and a bearish ChoCh occurs when a prior higher low is broken to the downside. The indicator marks these levels to alert you to the earliest signs of a trend change. Break of Structure (BoS): A "BoS" confirms trend continuation. In an uptrend, a bullish BoS is a break above a significant high. In a downtrend, a bearish BoS is a break below a significant low. These levels help you stay aligned with the dominant market direction. Inducement (IDMT): Before a significant move, the market often engineers liquidity by "sweeping" a recent, obvious swing point. This is called inducement. The script marks these inducement levels, helping you identify areas where a stop hunt might occur before the true move begins. Fair Value Gaps (FVG Lifecycle) A Fair Value Gap represents an inefficiency or imbalance in the market, visible as a three-candle formation where the wicks of the first and third candles do not overlap. Detection & Drawing: The script automatically detects and draws boxes for both bullish and bearish FVGs. Lifecycle Tracking: The suite goes beyond simple detection. It tracks the FVG's lifecycle: Active: A newly formed, unfilled FVG. Mitigated: The FVG is colored grey once the price has traded into it, signifying the imbalance has been partially or fully addressed. Taken: The box is removed once the price has passed completely through the FVG, as the level is no longer valid. Fractals Fractals are simple but powerful reversal patterns that identify potential swing highs and lows. A fractal is a five-bar (or three-bar) pattern that indicates a potential turning point. The script plots these directly on the chart, helping to confirm swing points and structural breaks identified by the other components. Swing Points The indicator plots clear markers at significant swing highs and swing lows based on a user-defined pivot period. This feature provides a clean, visual confirmation of the market's peaks and troughs, which are essential for defining ranges and structural points. 3. How to Use the Indicator Workflow Example: Identify the Trend: Use the BoS labels to determine the overall market direction (e.g., a series of bullish BoS indicates an uptrend). Anticipate a Reversal: Watch for a ChoCh against the prevailing trend as an early warning that the trend may be weakening or reversing. Look for Entries: After a BoS, wait for a pullback. A high-quality pullback might sweep an Inducement (IDMT) level and then tap into a nearby Fair Value Gap (FVG). This confluence of events can signal a strong entry zone. Confirm with Fractals: Use the Fractal markers to provide additional confirmation of the swing points that define your structural levels. Setting Up the Single Alert System: This script uses a consolidated alert system. You only need to set one alert in TradingView to be notified of any of the selected market events. Click the "Alert" button (clock icon) in your TradingView toolbar. In the "Condition" dropdown, select "Innotrade ICT Suite". Below that, select "Any alert() function call". Set the frequency to "Once Per Bar Close" for best results. In the indicator's settings, use the checkboxes under "ALERTS - Detailed Selection" to choose exactly which events you want to be notified about (e.g., only Bullish ChoCh and Bearish BoS).
