E9 UK/US/ASIA-SessionE9 Multi-Session Indicator: Purpose & Importance This PineScript indicator highlights three key trading sessions (US, Asia, UK) on your chart, color-coding their active hours and tracking price extremes (highs/lows) during these periods. What It Does: Session Timings (GMT): US: 13:00–22:00 (Blue) Asia: 23:00–06:00 (Yellow) UK: 09:00–16:00 (White) Marks session starts/ends with circles. Plots session-specific high/low lines. Customizable times and colors for flexibility. Why It Matters: Volatility Awareness: Major markets drive price action during their sessions. The US session (13:00–22:00 GMT) often overlaps with other regions, increasing volatility. Strategic Timing: Align trades with peak liquidity (e.g., during the US session) or prepare for quieter periods (e.g., Asia session). Key Levels: Session highs/lows often act as support/resistance. Tracking these helps identify breakout or reversal opportunities. By visualizing session activity, traders can optimize entry/exit timing and adapt strategies to market rhythms.

Price Alert Indicator with TableIndicator Description: Price Alert Indicator with Table The Custom Price Alert Indicator with Table is a TradingView script designed to help traders monitor and react to significant price levels during the Asian and London trading sessions. This indicator provides visual alerts and displays relevant session data in a user-friendly table format. Key Features: User-Defined Session Times: Users can specify the start and end hours for both the Asian (default: 8 AM to 2 PM) and London (default: 2 PM to 8 PM) trading sessions in their local time zone. This flexibility allows traders from different regions to customize the indicator according to their trading hours. Real-Time Highs and Lows: The indicator calculates and tracks the high and low prices for the Asian and London sessions in real-time. It continuously updates these values as new price data comes in. Touch Notification Logic: Alerts are triggered when the price touches the session high or low points. Notifications are designed to avoid repetition; if the London session touches the Asian high or low, subsequent touches are not alerted until the next trading day. Interactive Table Display: A table is presented in the bottom right corner of the chart, showing: The Asian low and high prices The London low and high prices Whether each price level has been touched. Touched levels are visually highlighted in green, making it easy for traders to identify relevant price actions. Daily Reset of Notifications: The notification statuses are reset at the end of the London session each day, preparing for the next day’s trading activity. Use Cases: Traders can utilize this indicator to stay informed about pivotal price levels during important trading sessions, aiding in decision-making and strategy development. The clear visual representation of price levels and touch statuses helps traders quickly assess market conditions. This indicator is particularly beneficial for day traders and those who focus on price movements around key high and low points during the trading day.

[TehThomas] - ICT Liquidity sweepsThe ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is designed to track liquidity zones in the market areas where stop-losses and pending orders are typically clustered. This indicator marks buyside liquidity (resistance) and sellside liquidity (support), helping traders identify areas where price is likely to manipulate liquidity before making a significant move. This tool is based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) Smart Money Concepts, which emphasize how institutional traders, or “Smart Money,” manipulate liquidity to fuel price movements. By identifying these zones, traders can anticipate liquidity sweeps and position themselves accordingly. ⚙️ How It Works 1️⃣ Detects Key Liquidity Zones The script automatically identifies significant swing highs and swing lows in price action using a pivot-based method. A swing high (buyside liquidity) is a peak where price struggles to break higher, forming a resistance level. A swing low (sellside liquidity) is a valley where price struggles to go lower, creating a support level. These liquidity points are prime targets for liquidity sweeps before a true trend direction is confirmed. 2️⃣ Draws Liquidity Lines Once a swing high or low is identified, a horizontal line is drawn at that level. The lines extend to the right, serving as future liquidity targets until they are broken. The indicator allows customization in terms of color, line width, and maximum number of liquidity lines displayed at once. 3️⃣ Handles Liquidity Sweeps When price breaks a liquidity level, the indicator reacts based on the chosen action setting: Dotted/Dashed: The line remains visible but changes style to indicate a sweep. Delete: The line is completely removed once price has interacted with it. This feature ensures that traders can easily spot where liquidity has been taken and determine whether a reversal or continuation is likely. 4️⃣ Prevents Chart Clutter To maintain a clean chart, the script limits the number of liquidity lines displayed at any given time. When new liquidity zones are formed, the oldest lines are automatically removed, keeping the focus on the most relevant liquidity zones. 🎯 How to Use the ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator 🔍 Identifying Liquidity Grabs This indicator helps you identify areas where Smart Money is targeting liquidity before making a move. Buyside Liquidity (BSL) Sweeps: Occur when price spikes above a resistance level before reversing downward. Indicate that Smart Money has hunted stop-losses and buy stops before driving price lower. Sellside Liquidity (SSL) Sweeps: Occur when price drops below a support level before reversing upward. Indicate that Smart Money has collected liquidity from stop-losses and sell stops before pushing price higher. 📈 Combining with Market Structure Shifts (MSS) One of the best ways to use this indicator is in conjunction with our Market Structure Shifts Indicator. Liquidity sweeps + MSS Confirmation give strong high-probability trade setups: Wait for a liquidity sweep (price takes out a liquidity level). Look for an MSS in the opposite direction (e.g., price sweeps a high, then breaks a recent low). Enter the trade in the new direction with stop-loss above/below the liquidity sweep. 📊 Entry & Exit Strategies Long Trade Example: Price sweeps a key sellside liquidity level (SSL) → creates a false breakdown. MSS confirms a reversal (price breaks structure upwards). Enter long position after confirmation. Stop-loss below the liquidity grab to minimize risk. Short Trade Example: Price sweeps a key buyside liquidity level (BSL) → takes liquidity above resistance. MSS confirms a bearish move (price breaks a key support level). Enter short position after confirmation. Stop-loss above the liquidity grab. 🚀 Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer ✅ Helps Identify Smart Money Manipulation – Understand where institutions are likely to grab liquidity before the real move happens. ✅ Enhances Market Structure Analysis – When paired with MSS, liquidity sweeps become powerful signals for trend reversals. ✅ Filters Out False Breakouts – Many traders get caught in liquidity grabs. This indicator helps avoid bad entries. ✅ Keeps Your Chart Clean – The auto-limiting feature ensures that only the most relevant liquidity levels remain visible. ✅ Works on Any Timeframe – Whether you’re a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, liquidity concepts apply universally. 📌 Final Thoughts The ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is a must-have tool for traders who follow Smart Money Concepts. By tracking liquidity levels and highlighting sweeps, it allows traders to enter trades with precision while avoiding false breakouts. When combined with Market Structure Shifts (MSS), this strategy becomes even more powerful, offering traders an edge in spotting reversals and timing entries effectively. __________________________________________ Thanks for your support!

2:30 [LuciTech]this is a technical analysis tool designed to highlight key price levels and patterns during a specific trading window, based on UK time (Europe/London). It overlays visual elements on the chart, including a 12 PM reference line, Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) levels, a highlighted 2:30 PM candle, and Engulfing Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). This indicator is intended for traders who focus on intraday price action and liquidity zones. Features The 12 PM Line displays a vertical line at 12:00 PM (UK time) to mark the start of the session. It’s customizable, allowing you to enable or disable it and adjust its color. BSL/SSL Lines track the highest high (BSL) and lowest low (SSL) from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (UK time). These lines extend horizontally until 3:30 PM, after which they remain static at their last recorded levels. You can customize them by enabling or disabling visibility, adjusting colors, choosing a line style (solid, dashed, or dotted), and setting the width. The 2:30 PM Candle highlights the candle at 2:30 PM (UK time) with a distinct color. It’s customizable, with options to enable or disable it and change its color. Engulfing FVG (Fair Value Gap) identifies bullish and bearish engulfing patterns with a gap from the prior candle’s range. It draws a shaded box over the FVG area, and you can customize it by enabling or disabling it and adjusting the box color. How It Works The indicator operates within a session starting at 12:00 PM (UK time). BSL/SSL levels update between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM, with lines extending until 3:30 PM. After 3:30 PM, these lines freeze. BSL/SSL lines show the highest price (BSL) and lowest price (SSL) reached during the 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM window. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, marking the final range boundaries. The 2:30 PM candle emphasizes a key timestamp, often of interest to intraday traders. Engulfing FVGs detect significant price gaps created by engulfing candles, which may indicate potential reversal or continuation zones. Settings 12 PM Line Settings let you toggle visibility and set the line color. BSL/SSL Line Settings allow you to toggle visibility, set BSL and SSL colors, choose a line style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), and adjust width (1-4). 2:30 Candle Settings let you toggle visibility and set the candle color. Engulfing FVG Settings allow you to toggle visibility and set the box color. Interpretation The 12 PM Line serves as a reference for the session start. BSL/SSL Lines may act as potential support or resistance zones or highlight liquidity areas. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, showing the session’s final range. The 2:30 PM Candle can be monitored for price action signals, such as reversals or breakouts. Engulfing FVGs shaded areas may indicate imbalances in supply and demand, useful for identifying trade opportunities or stop-loss placement. Notes The timezone is set to Europe/London (UK time). Ensure your chart’s timezone aligns for accurate results. This indicator is best used on intraday timeframes, such as 1-minute or 5-minute charts. It provides visual aids for analysis and does not generate buy or sell signals on its own.

Son Model ICT [TradingFinder] HTF DOL H1 + Sweep M15 + FVG M1🔵 Introduction The ICT Son Model setup is a precise trading strategy based on market structure and liquidity, implemented across multiple timeframes. This setup first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe to validate the trend. After confirmation, the price forms a new swing in the 5-minute timeframe, absorbing liquidity. Once this level is broken, traders typically drop to the 30-second (30s) timeframe and enter trades based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). However, since access to the 30-second timeframe is not available to most traders, we take the entry signal directly from the 5-minute timeframe, using the same liquidity zones and confirmed breakouts to execute trades. This approach simplifies execution and makes the strategy accessible to all traders. This model operates in two setups : Bullish ICT Son Model and Bearish ICT Son Model. In the bullish setup, liquidity is first accumulated at the lows of the 1-hour timeframe, and after confirming a market structure shift, a long position is initiated. Conversely, in the bearish setup, liquidity is first drawn from higher levels, and upon confirmation of a bearish trend, a short position is executed. Bullish Setup : Bearish Setup : 🔵 How to Use The ICT Son Model setup is designed around liquidity analysis and market structure shifts and can be applied in both bullish and bearish market conditions. The strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe. After this shift, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity. When this level is broken in the 5-minute timeframe, the trader enters based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). While the ideal entry is in the 30-second (30s) timeframe, due to accessibility constraints, we take entry signals directly from the 5-minute timeframe. 🟣 Bullish Setup In the Bullish ICT Son Model, the 1-hour timeframe first identifies liquidity at the market lows, where price sweeps this level to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bullish shift. After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a higher level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a long position, placing the stop-loss below the FVG. 🟣 Bearish Setup In the Bearish ICT Son Model, liquidity at higher market levels is identified in the 1-hour timeframe, where price sweeps these levels to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bearish trend. After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a lower level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a short position, placing the stop-loss above the FVG. 🔵 Settings Swing period : You can set the swing detection period. Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine. Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking. FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar. MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar. FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise. Types of FVG filters : Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs. Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs. Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs. Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals. 🔵 Conclusion The ICT Son Model setup is a structured and precise method for trade execution based on liquidity analysis and market structure shifts. This strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour timeframe and then confirms a trend shift using the 5-minute timeframe. Trade entries are executed based on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), which highlight optimal entry points. By applying this model, traders can leverage existing market liquidity to enter high-probability trades. The bullish setup activates when liquidity is swept from market lows and a market structure shift confirms an upward trend, whereas the bearish setup is used when liquidity is drawn from market highs, confirming a downtrend. This approach enables traders to identify high-probability trade setups with greater precision compared to many other strategies. Additionally, since access to the 30-second timeframe is limited, the strategy remains fully functional in the 5-minute timeframe, making it more practical and accessible for a wider range of traders.

One Trading Setup for Life ICT [TradingFinder] Sweep Session FVG🔵 Introduction ICT One Trading Setup for Life is a trading strategy based on liquidity and market structure shifts, utilizing the PM Session Sweep to determine price direction. In this strategy, the market first forms a price range during the PM Session (from 13:30 to 16:00 EST), which includes the highest high (PM Session High) and lowest low (PM Session Low). In the next session, the price first touches one of these levels to trigger a Liquidity Hunt before confirming its trend by breaking the Change in State of Delivery (CISD) Level. After this confirmation, the price retraces toward a Fair Value Gap (FVG) or Order Block (OB), which serve as the best entry points in alignment with liquidity. In financial markets, liquidity is the primary driver of price movement, and major market participants such as institutional investors and banks are constantly seeking liquidity at key levels. This process, known as Liquidity Hunt or Liquidity Sweep, occurs when the price reaches an area with a high concentration of orders, absorbs liquidity, and then reverses direction. In this setup, the PM Session range acts as a trading framework, where its highs and lows function as key liquidity zones that influence the next session’s price movement. After the New York market opens at 9:30 EST, the price initially breaks one of these levels to capture liquidity. However, for a trend shift to be confirmed, the CISD Level must be broken. Once the CISD Level is breached, the price retraces toward an FVG or OB, which serve as optimal trade entry points. Bullish Setup : Bearish Setup : 🔵 How to Use In this strategy, the PM Session range is first identified, which includes the highest high (PM Session High) and lowest low (PM Session Low) between 13:30 and 16:00 EST. In the following session, the price touches one of these levels for a Liquidity Hunt, followed by a break of the Change in State of Delivery (CISD) Level. The price then retraces toward a Fair Value Gap (FVG) or Order Block (OB), creating a trading opportunity. This process can occur in two scenarios : bearish and bullish setups. 🟣 Bullish Setup In a bullish scenario, the PM Session High and PM Session Low are identified. In the following session, the price first breaks the PM Session Low, absorbing liquidity. This process results in a Fake Breakout to the downside, misleading retail traders into taking short positions. After the Liquidity Hunt, the CISD Level is broken, confirming a trend reversal. The price then retraces toward an FVG or OB, offering an optimal long entry opportunity. The initial take-profit target is the PM Session High, but if higher timeframe liquidity levels exist, extended targets can be set. The stop-loss should be placed below the Fake Breakout low or the first candle of the FVG. 🟣 Bearish Setup In a bearish scenario, the market first defines its PM Session High and PM Session Low. In the next session, the price initially breaks the PM Session High, triggering a Liquidity Hunt. This movement often causes a Fake Breakout, misleading retail traders into taking incorrect positions. After absorbing liquidity, the CISD Level breaks, indicating a shift in market structure. The price then retraces toward an FVG or OB, offering the best short entry opportunity. The initial take-profit target is the PM Session Low, but if additional liquidity exists on higher timeframes, lower targets can be considered. The stop-loss should be placed above the Fake Breakout high or the first candle of the FVG. 🔵 Setting CISD Bar Back Check : The Bar Back Check option enables traders to specify the number of past candles checked for identifying the CISD Level, enhancing CISD Level accuracy on the chart. Order Block Validity : The number of candles that determine the validity of an Order Block. FVG Validity : The duration for which a Fair Value Gap remains valid. CISD Level Validity : The duration for which a CISD Level remains valid after being broken. New York PM Session : Defines the PM Session range from 13:30 to 16:00 EST. New York AM Session : Defines the AM Session range from 9:30 to 16:00 EST. Refine Order Block : Enables finer adjustments to Order Block levels for more accurate price responses. Mitigation Level OB : Allows users to set specific reaction points within an Order Block, including: Proximal: Closest level to the current price. 50% OB: Midpoint of the Order Block. Distal: Farthest level from the current price. FVG Filter : The Judas Swing indicator includes a filter for Fair Value Gap (FVG), allowing different filtering based on FVG width: FVG Filter Type: Can be set to "Very Aggressive," "Aggressive," "Defensive," or "Very Defensive." Higher defensiveness narrows the FVG width, focusing on narrower gaps. Mitigation Level FVG : Like the Order Block, you can set price reaction levels for FVG with options such as Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal. Demand Order Block : Enables or disables bullish Order Block. Supply Order Block : Enables or disables bearish Order Blocks. Demand FVG : Enables or disables bullish FVG. Supply FVG : Enables or disables bearish FVGs. Show All CISD : Enables or disables the display of all CISD Levels. Show High CISD : Enables or disables high CISD levels. Show Low CISD : Enables or disables low CISD levels. 🔵 Conclusion The ICT One Trading Setup for Life is a liquidity-based strategy that leverages market structure shifts and precise entry points to identify high-probability trade opportunities. By focusing on PM Session High and PM Session Low, this setup first captures liquidity at these levels and then confirms trend shifts with a break of the Change in State of Delivery (CISD) Level. Entering a trade after a retracement to an FVG or OB allows traders to position themselves at optimal liquidity levels, ensuring high reward-to-risk trades. When used in conjunction with higher timeframe bias, order flow, and liquidity analysis, this strategy can become one of the most effective trading methods within the ICT Concept framework. Successful execution of this setup requires risk management, patience, and a deep understanding of liquidity dynamics. Traders can enhance their confidence in this strategy by conducting extensive backtesting and analyzing past market data to optimize their approach for different assets.

2022 Model ICT Entry Strategy [TradingFinder] One Setup For Life🔵 Introduction The ICT 2022 model, introduced by Michael Huddleston, is an advanced trading strategy rooted in liquidity and price imbalance, where time and price serve as the core elements. This ICT 2022 trading strategy is an algorithmic approach designed to analyze liquidity and imbalances in the market. It incorporates concepts such as Fair Value Gap (FVG), Liquidity Sweep, and Market Structure Shift (MSS) to help traders identify liquidity movements and structural changes in the market, enabling them to determine optimal entry and exit points for their trades. This Full ICT Day Trading Model empowers traders to pinpoint the Previous Day High/Low as well as the highs and lows of critical sessions like the London and New York sessions. These levels act as Liquidity Zones, which are frequently swept prior to a market structure shift (MSS) or a retracement to areas such as Optimal Trade Entry (OTE). Bullish : Bearish : 🔵 How to Use The ICT 2022 model is a sophisticated trading strategy that focuses on identifying key liquidity levels and price movements. It operates based on two main principles. In the first phase, the price approaches liquidity zones and sweeps critical levels such as the previous day’s high or low and key session levels. This movement is known as a Liquidity Sweep. In the second phase, following the sweep, the price retraces to areas like the FVG (Fair Value Gap), creating ideal entry points for trades. Below is a detailed explanation of how to apply this strategy in bullish and bearish setups. 🟣 Bullish ICT 2022 Model Setup To use the ICT 2022 model in a bullish setup, start by identifying the Previous Day High/Low or key session levels, such as those of the London or New York sessions. In a bullish setup, the price usually moves downward first, sweeping the Liquidity Low. This move, known as a Liquidity Sweep, reflects the collection of buy orders by major market participants. After the liquidity sweep, the price should shift market structure and start moving upward; this shift, referred to as Market Structure Shift (MSS), signals the beginning of an upward trend. Following MSS, areas like FVG, located within the Discount Zone, are identified. At this stage, the trader waits for the price to retrace to these zones. Once the price returns, a long trade is executed. Finally, the stop-loss should be set below the liquidity low to manage risk, while the take-profit target is usually placed above the previous day’s high or other identified liquidity levels. This structure enables traders to take advantage of the upward price movement after the liquidity sweep. 🟣 Bearish ICT 2022 Model Setup To identify a bearish setup in the ICT 2022 model, begin by marking the Previous Day High/Low or key session levels, such as the London or New York sessions. In this scenario, the price typically moves upward first, sweeping the Liquidity High. This move, known as a Liquidity Sweep, signifies the collection of sell orders by key market players. After the liquidity sweep, the price should shift market structure downward. This movement, called the Market Structure Shift (MSS), indicates the start of a downtrend. Following MSS, areas such as FVG, found within the Premium Zone, are identified. At this stage, the trader waits for the price to retrace to these areas. Once the price revisits these zones, a short trade is executed. In this setup, the stop-loss should be placed above the liquidity high to control risk, while the take-profit target is typically set below the previous day’s low or another defined liquidity level. This approach allows traders to capitalize on the downward price movement following the liquidity sweep. 🔵 Settings Swing period : You can set the swing detection period. Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine. Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking. FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar. MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar. FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise. Types of FVG filters : Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs. Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs. Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs. Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals. 🔵 Conclusion The ICT 2022 model is a comprehensive and advanced trading strategy designed around key concepts such as liquidity, price imbalance, and market structure shifts (MSS). By focusing on the sweep of critical levels such as the previous day’s high/low and important trading sessions like London and New York, this strategy enables traders to predict market movements with greater precision. The use of tools like FVG in this model helps traders fine-tune their entry and exit points and take advantage of bullish and bearish trends after liquidity sweeps. Moreover, combining this strategy with precise timing during key trading sessions allows traders to minimize risk and maximize returns. In conclusion, the ICT 2022 model emphasizes the importance of time and liquidity, making it a powerful tool for both professional and novice traders. By applying the principles of this model, you can make more informed trading decisions and seize opportunities in financial markets more effectively.

One Shot One Kill ICT [TradingFinder] Liquidity MMXM + CISD OTE🔵 Introduction The One Shot One Kill trading setup is one of the most advanced methods in the field of Smart Money Concept (SMC) and ICT. Designed with a focus on concepts such as Liquidity Hunt, Discount Market, and Premium Market, this strategy emphasizes precise Price Action analysis and market structure shifts. It enables traders to identify key entry and exit points using a structured Trading Model. The core process of this setup begins with a Liquidity Hunt. Initially, the price targets areas like the Previous Day High and Previous Day Low to absorb liquidity. Once the Change in State of Delivery(CISD)is broken, the market structure shifts, signaling readiness for trade entry. At this stage, Fibonacci retracement levels are drawn, and the trader enters a position as the price retraces to the 0.618 Fibonacci level. Part of the Smart Money approach, this setup combines liquidity analysis with technical tools, creating an opportunity for traders to enter high-accuracy trades. By following this setup, traders can identify critical market moves and capitalize on reversal points effectively. Bullish : Bearish : 🔵 How to Use The One Shot One Kill setup is a structured and advanced trading strategy based on Liquidity Hunt, Fibonacci retracement, and market structure shifts (CISD). With a focus on precise Price Action analysis, this setup helps traders identify key market movements and plan optimal trade entries and exits. It operates in two scenarios: Bullish and Bearish, each with distinct steps. 🟣 Bullish One Shot One Kill In the Bullish scenario, the process starts with the price moving toward the Previous Day Low, where liquidity is absorbed. At this stage, retail sellers are trapped as they enter short trades at lower levels. Following this, the market reverses upward and breaks the CISD, signaling a shift in market structure toward bullishness. Once this shift is identified, traders draw Fibonacci levels from the lowest point to the highest point of the move. When the price retraces to the 0.618 Fibonacci level, conditions for a buy position are met. The target for this trade is typically the Previous Day High or other significant liquidity zones where major buyers are positioned, offering a high probability of price reversal. 🟣 Bearish One Shot One Kill In the Bearish scenario, the price initially moves toward the Previous Day High to absorb liquidity. Retail buyers are trapped as they enter long trades near the highs. After the liquidity hunt, the market reverses downward, breaking the CISD, which signals a bearish shift in market structure. Following this confirmation, Fibonacci levels are drawn from the highest point to the lowest point of the move. When the price retraces to the 0.618 Fibonacci level, a sell position is initiated. The target for this trade is usually the Previous Day Low or other key liquidity zones where major sellers are active. This setup provides a precise and logical framework for traders to identify market movements and enter trades at critical reversal points. 🔵 Settings 🟣 CISD Logical settings Bar Back Check : Determining the return of candles to identify the CISD level. CISD Level Validity : CISD level validity period based on the number of candles. 🟣 LIQUIDITY Logical settings Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
