Momentum-Based Fair Value Gaps [BackQuant]Momentum-Based Fair Value Gaps A precision tool that detects Fair Value Gaps and color-codes each zone by momentum, so you can quickly tell which imbalances matter, which are likely to fill, and which may power continuation. What is a Fair Value Gap A Fair Value Gap is a 3-candle price imbalance that forms when the middle candle expands fast enough that it leaves a void between candle 1 and candle 3. Bullish FVG : low > high . This marks a bullish imbalance left beneath price. Bearish FVG : high < low . This marks a bearish imbalance left above price. These zones often act as magnets for mean reversion or as fuel for trend continuation when price respects the gap boundary and runs. Why add momentum Not all gaps are equal. This script measures momentum with RSI on your chosen source and paints each FVG with a momentum heatmap. Strong-momentum gaps are more likely to hold or propel continuation. Weak-momentum gaps are more likely to fill. Core Features Auto FVG Detection with size filters in percent of price. Momentum Heatmap per gap using RSI with smoothing. Multiple palettes: Gradient, Discrete, Simple, and scientific schemes like Viridis, Plasma, Inferno, Magma, Cividis, Turbo, Jet, plus Red-Green and Blue-White-Red. Bull and Bear Modes with independent toggles. Extend Until Filled : keep drawing live to the right until price fully fills the gap. Auto Remove Filled for a clean chart. Optional Labels showing the smoothed RSI value stored at the gap’s birth. RSI-based Filters : only accept bullish gaps when RSI is oversold and bearish gaps when RSI is overbought. Performance Controls : cap how many FVGs to keep on chart. Alerts : new bullish or bearish FVG, filled FVG, and extreme RSI FVGs. How it works Source for Momentum : choose Returns, Close, or Volume. Returns computes percent change over a short lookback to focus on impulse quality. RSI and Smoothing : RSI length and a small SMA smooth the signal to stabilize the color coding. Gap Scan : each bar checks for a 3-candle bullish or bearish imbalance that also clears your minimum size filter in percent of price. Heatmap Color : the gap is painted at creation with a color from your palette based on the smoothed RSI value, preserving the momentum signature that formed it. Lifecycle : if Extend Unfilled is on, the zone projects forward until price fully trades through the far edge. If Auto Remove is on, a filled gap is deleted immediately. How to use it Scan for structure : turn on both bullish and bearish FVGs. Start with a moderate Min FVG Size percent to reduce noise. You will see stacked clusters in trends and scattered singletons in chop. Read the colors : brighter or stronger palette values imply stronger momentum at gap formation. Weakly colored gaps are lower conviction. Decide bias : bullish FVGs below price suggest demand footprints. Bearish FVGs above price suggest supply footprints. Use the heatmap and RSI value to rank importance. Choose your playbook : Mean reversion : target partial or full fills of opposing FVGs that were created on weak momentum or that sit against higher timeframe context. Trend continuation : look for price to respect the near edge of a strong-momentum FVG, then break away in the direction of the original impulse. Manage risk : in continuation ideas, invalidation often sits beyond the opposite edge of the active FVG. In reversion ideas, invalidation sits beyond the gap that should attract price. Two trade playbooks Continuation - Buy the hold of a bullish FVG Context uptrend. A bullish FVG prints with strong RSI color. Price revisits the top of the gap, holds, and rotates up. Enter on hold or first higher low inside or just above the gap. Invalidation: below the gap bottom. Targets: prior swing, measured move, or next LV area. Reversion - Fade a weak bearish FVG toward fill Context range or fading trend. A bearish FVG prints with weak RSI color near a completed move. Price fails to accelerate lower and rotates back into the gap. Enter toward mid-gap with confirmation. Invalidation: above gap top. Target: opposite edge for a full fill, or the gap midline for partials. Key settings Max FVG Display : memory cap to keep charts fast. Try 30 to 60 on intraday. Min FVG Size % : sets a quality floor. Start near 0.20 to 0.50 on liquid markets. RSI Length and Smooth : 14 and 3 are balanced. Increase length for higher timeframe stability. RSI Source : Returns : most sensitive to true momentum bursts Close : traditional. Volume : uses raw volume impulses to judge footprint strength. Filter by RSI Extremes : tighten rules so only the most stretched gaps print as signals. Heatmap Style and Palette : pick a palette with good contrast for your background. Gradient for continuous feel, Discrete for quick zoning, Simple for binary, Palette for scientific schemes. Extend Unfilled - Auto Remove : choose live projection and cleanup behavior to match your workflow. Reading the chart Bullish zones sit beneath price. Respect and hold of the upper boundary suggests demand. Strong green or warm palette tones indicate impulse quality. Bearish zones sit above price. Respect and hold of the lower boundary suggests supply. Strong red or cool palette tones indicate impulse quality. Stacking : multiple same-direction gaps stacked in a trend create ladders. Ladders often act as stepping stones for continuation. Overlapping : opposing gaps overlapping in a small region usually mark a battle zone. Expect chop until one side is absorbed. Workflow tips Map higher timeframe trend first. Use lower timeframe FVGs for entries aligned with the higher timeframe bias. Increase Min FVG Size percent and RSI length for noisy symbols. Use labels when learning to correlate the RSI numbers with your palette colors. Combine with VWAP or moving averages for confluence at FVG edges. If you see repeated fills and refills of the same zone, treat that area as fair value and avoid chasing. Alerts included New Bullish FVG New Bearish FVG Bullish FVG Filled Bearish FVG Filled Extreme Oversold FVG - bullish Extreme Overbought FVG - bearish Practical defaults RSI Length 14, Smooth 3, Source Returns. Min FVG Size 0.25 percent on liquid majors. Heatmap Style Gradient, Palette Viridis or Turbo for contrast. Extend Unfilled on, Auto Remove on for a clean live map. Notes This tool does not predict the future. It maps imbalances and momentum so you can frame trades with clearer context, cleaner invalidation, and better ranking of which gaps matter. Use it with risk control and in combination with your broader process.

ICT Anchored Market Structures with Validation [LuxAlgo]The ICT Anchored Market Structures with Validation indicator is an advanced iteration of the original Pure-Price-Action-Structures tool, designed for price action traders. It systematically tracks and validates key price action structures, distinguishing between true structural shifts/breaks and short-term sweeps to enhance trend and reversal analysis. The indicator automatically highlights structural points, confirms breakouts, identifies sweeps, and provides clear visual cues for short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term market structures. A distinctive feature of this indicator is its exclusive reliance on price patterns. It does not depend on any user-defined input, ensuring that its analysis remains robust, objective, and uninfluenced by user bias, making it an effective tool for understanding market dynamics. 🔶 USAGE Market structure is a cornerstone of price action analysis. This script automatically detects real-time market structures across short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term levels, simplifying trend analysis for traders. It assists in identifying both trend reversals and continuations with greater clarity. Market structure shifts and breaks help traders identify changes in trend direction. A shift signals a potential reversal, often occurring when a swing high or low is breached, suggesting a transition in trend. A break, on the other hand, confirms the continuation of an established trend, reinforcing the current direction. Recognizing these shifts and breaks allows traders to anticipate price movement with greater accuracy. It’s important to note that while a CHoCH may signal a potential trend reversal and a BoS suggests a continuation of the prevailing trend, neither guarantees a complete reversal or continuation. In some cases, CHoCH and BoS levels may act as liquidity zones or areas of consolidation rather than indicating a clear shift or continuation in market direction. The indicator’s validation component helps confirm whether the detected CHoCH and BoS are true breakouts or merely liquidity sweeps. 🔶 DETAILS 🔹 Market Structures Market structures are derived from price action analysis, focusing on identifying key levels and patterns in the market. Swing point detection, a fundamental concept in ICT trading methodologies and teachings, plays a central role in this approach. Swing points are automatically identified based exclusively on market movements, without requiring any user-defined input. 🔹 Utilizing Swing Points Swing points are not identified in real-time as they form. Short-term swing points may appear with a delay of up to one bar, while the identification of intermediate and long-term swing points is entirely dependent on subsequent market movements. Importantly, this detection process is not influenced by any user-defined input, relying solely on pure price action. As a result, swing points are generally not intended for real-time trading scenarios. Instead, traders often analyze historical swing points to understand market trends and identify potential entry and exit opportunities. By examining swing highs and lows, traders can: Recognize Trends: Swing highs and lows provide insight into trend direction. Higher swing highs and higher swing lows signify an uptrend, while lower swing highs and lower swing lows indicate a downtrend. Identify Support and Resistance Levels: Swing highs often act as resistance levels, referred to as Buyside Liquidity Levels in ICT terminology, while swing lows function as support levels, also known as Sellside Liquidity Levels. Traders can leverage these levels to plan their trade entries and exits. Spot Reversal Patterns: Swing points can form key reversal patterns, such as double tops or bottoms, head and shoulders, and triangles. Recognizing these patterns can indicate potential trend reversals, enabling traders to adjust their strategies effectively. Set Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels: In ICT teachings, swing levels represent price points with expected clusters of buy or sell orders. Traders can target these liquidity levels/pools for position accumulation or distribution, using swing points to define stop loss and take profit levels in their trades. Overall, swing points provide valuable information about market dynamics and can assist traders in making more informed trading decisions. 🔹 Logic of Validation The validation process in this script determines whether a detected market structure shift or break represents a confirmed breakout or a sweep. The breakout is confirmed when the close price is significantly outside the deviation range of the last detected structural price. This deviation range is defined by the 17-period Average True Range (ATR), which creates a buffer around the detected market structure shift or break. A sweep occurs when the price breaches the structural level within the deviation range but does not confirm a breakout. In this case, the label is updated to 'SWEEP.' A visual box is created to represent the price range where the breakout or sweep occurs. If the validation process continues, the box is updated. This box visually highlights the price range involved in a sweep, helping traders identify liquidity events on the chart. 🔶 SETTINGS The settings for Short-Term, Intermediate-Term, and Long-Term Structures are organized into groups, allowing users to customize swing points, market structures, and visual styles for each. 🔹 Structures Swings and Size: Enables or disables the display of swing highs and lows, assigns icons to represent the structures, and adjusts the size of the icons. Market Structures: Toggles the visibility of market structure lines. Market Structure Validation: Enable or disable validation to distinguish true breakouts from liquidity sweeps. Market Structure Labels: Displays or hides labels indicating the type of market structure. Line Style and Width: Allows customization of the style and width of the lines representing market structures. Swing and Line Colors: Provides options to adjust the colors of swing icons, market structure lines, and labels for better visualization. 🔶 RELATED SCRIPTS Pure-Price-Action-Structures.

Fair Value Gaps by DGTFair Value Gaps A refined, multi-timeframe Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection tool that brings institutional imbalance zones to life directly on your chart. Designed for precision, it visualizes how price delivers into inefficiencies across chart, higher, and lower (intrabar) timeframes — offering a fluid, structural view of liquidity displacement and market flow. The script continuously tracks unfilled, partially repaired, and fully resolved imbalances, revealing where liquidity inefficiencies concentrate and where price may seek rebalancing. Overlapping zones naturally expose institutional footprints, potential liquidity targets, and key re-pricing regions within the broader market structure. KEY FEATURES ⯌ Multi-Timeframe Detection Detect and display FVGs from the current chart, higher timeframes (HTF), or lower timeframes (LTF) ⯌ Smart Fill Tracking Automatic real-time monitoring of each FVG’s fill progress with live percentage updates ⯌ Custom Fill Logic Choose your preferred definition of when a gap is considered filled: Any Touch Midpoint Reached Wick Sweep Body Beyond ⯌ Dynamic Labels & Tooltips Labels can be toggled on/off. Even when hidden, detailed tooltips remain available by hovering over the FVG midpoint. ⯌ Adaptive Lower-Timeframe Mode When set to “Auto,” the script intelligently selects the optimal lower timeframe based on the chart resolution. DISCLAIMER This script is intended for informational and educational purposes only. It does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. All trading decisions made based on its output are solely the responsibility of the user.

Orderblocks & BreakersThis indicator identifies potential orderblocks and breakers based on recent swing highs and lows. It is built to offer a structured, customizable, and noise-controlled view of how price interacts with supply and demand levels. The script applies pivot-based swing detection to identify swing highs and lows. Bullish Orderblocks: The script Identifies and stores the last down candle before a swing high is breached and confirms and plots the orderblock with a market structure break (close above the swing high). Bearish Orderblocks: The script Identifies and stores the last up candle before a swing low is breached and confirms and plots the orderblock with a market structure break (close below the swing low). When price later closes through an existing orderblock, it is reclassified as a Breaker and recolored accordingly. (all colors can be changed in the settings) What Makes It Different Unlike most orderblock tools that simply mark every swing-based block, this version introduces: 1. Chop Control – automatically hides breakers that price repeatedly closes through (2 closes after the orderblock becomes a breaker), keeping only relevant zones visible. 2. Recent Block Filtering – limits how many of the recent orderblocks or breakers are displayed, preventing chart clutter. 3. Dynamic Updating – orderblocks automatically convert to breakers when price closes beyond them, with clear color changes. These features make it easier to study cleaner price structure without manually managing old or invalid zones. The optional Chop Control filter can reduce overlapping or repeatedly invalidated zones to keep the chart clearer. Customizable Parameters - Swing detection length (shorter means more aggressive pivot detection, longer means less aggressive so less highs/lows detected) - Number of recent blocks to display - Visibility toggles for orderblocks or breakers - Color and transparency controls for each type Alerts Alerts can be set to trigger when price tests any defined zone. Purpose This indicator is designed as a price structure visualization and study tool. It may assist in understanding how price interacts with previously active regions, but it does not produce signals or trade recommendations.

FVG Volume Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW FVG Volume Profile is a smart volume analysis tool that identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and overlays a volume profile inside each gap using data from lower timeframes. The indicator automatically selects the best time resolution or allows for manual control, giving traders deeper insight into the volume structure within each imbalance. POC levels and total volumes gives a full microstructure view inside every FVG. ⯁ KEY FEATURES Fair Value Gap Detection (Bullish & Bearish) Detects price gaps where inefficiency exists using a 3-bar structure. -Bullish Gaps: Low > High with confirming middle bar. -Bearish Gaps: High < Low with confirming middle bar. Only significant gaps (filtered by standard deviation) are plotted to avoid noise. Multi-Timeframe Volume Profiling Pulls granular candle and volume data from a lower timeframe — In Auto Mode, uses a resolution ~10x lower than the current chart. In Manual Mode, lets the user select a custom timeframe. This ensures accurate intra-gap volume distribution. Dynamic Volume Binning Each FVG is divided into vertical volume bins based on the Resolution input. Each bin displays relative volume intensity as a horizontal box, scaled by percentage of the max bin volume. Point of Control (PoC) Line & Label The bin with the maximum volume inside each FVG is marked with: A horizontal line (PoC) extending from the left to right side. A label showing the absolute volume of that bin. Color-coded to match bullish or bearish FVGs. Total Volume Label Inside FVG Each FVG displays the total volume sum from its profile: For bullish FVGs , shown in the bottom-right corner. For bearish FVGs , shown in the top-right corner. Auto-Removal of Invalid Gaps If price fully closes the gap (crosses its bounds), the FVG, profile, and PoC are deleted automatically. This keeps the chart clean and focused only on active zones. Toggleable Volume Profile Display User can show or hide the volume profiles within FVGs using the "Display" toggle under the "FVG Volume Profile" group. Only the PoC and FVG boxes remain visible if toggled off. Volume Resolution Customization Control the number of bins used for each FVG profile. Higher resolution = more bins and finer volume analysis. (default 15) Auto Timeframe Validation Warning If the selected lower timeframe isn’t actually lower than the chart's, the script shows a visible warning label prompting adjustment. Helps prevent calculation errors. ⯁ USAGE Use this tool to identify active imbalance zones (FVGs) with embedded volume context. Look for PoC positioning inside gaps — near top may indicate absorption or reversal zones. Combine with price action at the PoC level for precision entries. Hide volume profile for a cleaner view while retaining key POC and FVG boxes. Use resolution controls to zoom into fine-grained profiles inside large gaps. Consider Auto mode for seamless multi-timeframe analysis, or switch to Manual for full control. ⯁ CONCLUSION FVG Volume Profile transforms raw imbalance detection into actionable insight by embedding lower-timeframe volume structure inside each Fair Value Gap. With PoC highlights, total volume labels, and customizable bin resolution, this indicator is essential for traders who want to understand not just where the gap is — but what volume did inside it .

SMC Structures and Multi-Timeframe FVG PYSMC Structures and Multi-Timeframe FVG Indicator Tip: For optimal performance, adjust the number of FVGs displayed per timeframe in the settings. On high-performance devices, up to 8 FVGs per timeframe can be used without issues. If you experience slowdowns, reduce to 3 or 4 FVGs per timeframe. If the chart flashes, disable indicators one by one to identify conflicts, or try using the TradingView Mobile or Windows App for a smoother experience. Overview This Pine Script indicator enhances market analysis by integrating Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with Fair Value Gaps (FVG) across multiple timeframes. It identifies trend continuations (Break of Structure, BOS) and trend reversals (Change of Character, CHoCH) while highlighting liquidity zones through FVG detection. The indicator includes eight customizable Moving Average (MA) curve templates, disabled by default, to complement SMC and FVG analysis. Its originality lies in combining multi-timeframe FVG detection with SMC structure analysis, providing traders with a cohesive tool to visualize price action patterns and liquidity zones efficiently. Features and Functionality 1. Fair Value Gaps (FVG) The indicator detects and displays bullish, bearish, and mitigated FVGs, representing liquidity zones where price inefficiencies occur. These gaps are dynamically updated based on price action: Bullish FVG: Displayed in green when unmitigated, indicating potential upward liquidity zones. Bearish FVG: Displayed in red when unmitigated, signaling potential downward liquidity zones. Mitigated FVG: Shown in gray once the gap is partially filled by price action. Fully Mitigated FVG: Automatically removed from the chart when the gap is fully filled, reducing visual clutter. Users can customize the number of historical FVGs displayed via the settings, allowing focus on recent liquidity zones for targeted analysis. 2. SMC Structures The indicator identifies key SMC price action patterns: Break of Structure (BOS): Marked with gray lines, indicating trend continuation when price breaks a significant high or low. Change of Character (CHoCH): Highlighted with yellow lines, signaling potential trend reversals when price fails to maintain the current structure. High/Low Values: Blue lines denote the highest high and lowest low of the current structure, providing reference points for market context. 3. Multi-Timeframe FVG Analysis A standout feature is the ability to analyze FVGs across multiple timeframes simultaneously. This allows traders to align higher-timeframe liquidity zones with lower-timeframe entries, improving trade precision. The indicator fetches FVG data from user-selected timeframes, displaying them cohesively on the chart. 4. Moving Average (MA) Templates The indicator includes eight customizable MA curve templates in the Settings > Template section, disabled by default. These templates allow users to overlay MAs (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA) to complement SMC and FVG analysis. Each template is pre-configured with different periods and types, enabling quick adaptation to various trading strategies, such as trend confirmation or dynamic support/resistance. How It Works The script processes price action to detect FVGs by analyzing three-candle patterns where a gap forms between the high/low of the first and third candles. Multi-timeframe data is retrieved using Pine Script’s request.security() function, ensuring accurate FVG plotting across user-defined timeframes. BOS and CHoCH are identified by tracking swing highs and lows, with logic to differentiate trend continuation from reversals. The MA templates are computed using standard Pine Script TA functions, with user inputs controlling visibility and parameters. How to Use Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart. Configure Settings: FVG Settings: Adjust the number of historical FVGs to display (default: 10). Enable/disable specific FVG types (bullish, bearish, mitigated). Timeframe Selection: Choose up to three timeframes for FVG analysis (e.g., 1H, 4H, 1D) to align with your trading strategy. Structure Settings: Toggle BOS (gray lines) and CHoCH (yellow lines) visibility. Adjust sensitivity for structure detection if needed. MA Templates: Enable MA curves via the Template section. Select from eight pre-configured MA types and periods to suit your analysis. Interpret Signals: Use green/red FVGs for potential entry points targeting liquidity zones. Monitor gray lines (BOS) for trend continuation and yellow lines (CHoCH) for reversal signals. Align multi-timeframe FVGs with BOS/CHoCH for high-probability setups. Optionally, use MA curves for trend confirmation or dynamic levels. Clean Chart Usage: The indicator is designed to work standalone. Ensure no conflicting scripts are applied unless explicitly needed for your strategy. Why This Indicator Is Unique Unlike standalone FVG or SMC indicators, this script combines both concepts with multi-timeframe analysis, offering a comprehensive view of market structure and liquidity. The addition of customizable MA templates enhances flexibility, while the dynamic removal of mitigated FVGs keeps the chart clean. This mashup is purposeful, as it integrates complementary tools to streamline decision-making for traders using SMC strategies. Credits This indicator builds on foundational SMC and FVG concepts from the TradingView community. Some open-source code was reused, and do performance enhancement as you guys can read the code. This type of indicators has inspiration was drawn from public domain SMC methodologies. All code is partly original with manual work on performance optimization in Pine Script. Notes Ensure your chart is clean (no unnecessary drawings or indicators) to maximize clarity. The indicator is open-source, and traders are encouraged to review the code for deeper understanding. For optimal use, test the indicator on a demo account to familiarize yourself with its signals.

Every component has been designed to integrate seamlessly and update dynamically across timeframes. The indicator focuses on clarity, performance and customization, allowing traders to tailor every part of their trading experience. Equal Highs & Lows This feature automatically detects and marks Equal Highs (EQH) and Equal Lows (EQL) with full control over visuals and behavior. Users can customize line colors, widths, and styles, label size, color, background transparency and text offset. The logic uses an optimized scanning and caching system that maintains smooth performance even on higher timeframes. It provides a precise and adaptive way to identify structural liquidity points whilst keeping the chart clean and readable. Killzones & Session Pivots Plots the main trading sessions such as Asia, London and New York (AM, Lunch, PM) with full flexibility and styling options. Each session can be enabled or disabled individually, with its own color, transparency and label preferences. Session highs and lows are automatically tracked and plotted as pivots with extension modes like Until Mitigated or Past Mitigation. This system gives traders the ability to organize market sessions exactly how they prefer whilst keeping the chart consistent and efficient. Daily Pivots and Tier System Alongside session pivots, the script tracks daily highs and lows to provide a broader structural view of price. These pivots are stored and displayed on the chart with their appearance updating automatically when price interacts with them. The system includes a unique tier-based visibility filter that maintains a clean chart by preventing duplicate or overlapping pivots. Recent daily pivots are cached and compared to session pivots and when two levels fall within a defined proximity, the redundant one is automatically hidden. This creates a clear hierarchy of daily and session levels, keeping the most relevant structure visible whilst removing noise. All aspects of the daily pivot system are fully customizable, including the number of tracked pivots, color, style settings and how mitigated levels are handled. The caching and filtering logic ensures smooth performance and a visually organized workspace even as the data updates in real time. Key Times Allows up to five custom key time markers such as the Midnight Open, 6:00 AM or 10:00 AM. Each marker can be fully customized with its own text, color, line style and thickness. This makes it simple to visualize key reaction points that align with each traders timing model. Higher Timeframe Candles Displays higher timeframe candles such as 1H, 4H or Daily directly on the active chart to provide context without switching views.

Market Structure ICT Screener [TradingFinder] BoS ChoCh🔵 Introduction Market Structure is the foundation of every Smart Money and ICT based trading model. It describes how price moves through a sequence of highs and lows, forming clear phases of expansion, retracement and reversal. Understanding this structure allows traders to read institutional order flow and align their positions with the true direction of liquidity. Two of the most critical components in Market Structure are the Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH). A BOS represents trend continuation, confirming strength within the current direction. In contrast, CHOCH also known as a Market Structure Shift (MSS) signals the first sign of a trend reversal or liquidity shift where order flow begins to change from bullish to bearish or vice versa. Because the market is fractal, structure can exist at multiple levels known as Major (External) and Minor (Internal). Major structure defines the overall trend on higher timeframes while minor or internal structure reveals short term swings and early reversals within that larger move. 🔵 How to Use Understanding Market Structure starts with identifying how price interacts with previous swing highs and swing lows. Every trend in the market, whether bullish or bearish, is built from a sequence of impulsive and corrective moves. Impulsive legs show strong displacement in the direction of liquidity flow, while corrective legs represent temporary pullbacks as the market rebalances before the next expansion. Recognizing these sequences is essential for reading the story of price and anticipating what may happen next. A Break of Structure (BOS) occurs when price decisively moves beyond a previous structural point by breaking above the last high in an uptrend or falling below the last low in a downtrend. This event confirms that the current trend remains intact and that liquidity has been successfully taken from one side of the market. A BOS acts as confirmation of continuation and reflects strength within the existing directional bias. A Change of Character (CHOCH) appears when price violates structure in the opposite direction of the prevailing trend. This is the first signal that market sentiment and order flow may be shifting. For example, during a downtrend if price breaks above a previous high, it indicates that sellers are losing control and a potential bullish reversal may be developing. In an uptrend, when price drops below a recent low, it suggests a possible bearish transition. Because the market is fractal, structure exists across multiple layers. Major structure reflects the dominant movement visible on higher timeframes and defines the broader directional bias. Minor or internal structure represents smaller swings within that move and helps identify early transitions before they appear on the higher timeframe. When internal and external structures align, they offer a high probability signal for trend continuation or reversal. By observing BOS and CHOCH across both internal and external structures, traders can clearly visualize when the market is expanding, contracting or preparing to shift direction. This structured understanding of price movement forms the foundation for precise trend analysis and high quality decision making in any Smart Money or ICT based trading approach. 🔵 Settings 🟣 Display Settings Table on Chart : Allows users to choose the position of the signal dashboard either directly on the chart or below it, depending on their layout preference. Number of Symbols : Enables users to control how many symbols are displayed in the screener table, from 10 to 20, adjustable in increments of 2 symbols for flexible screening depth. Table Mode : This setting offers two layout styles for the signal table : Basic : Mode displays symbols in a single column, using more vertical space. Extended : Mode arranges symbols in pairs side-by-side, optimizing screen space with a more compact view. Table Size : Lets you adjust the table’s visual size with options such as: auto, tiny, small, normal, large, huge. Table Position : Sets the screen location of the table. Choose from 9 possible positions, combining vertical (top, middle, bottom) and horizontal (left, center, right) alignments. 🟣 Symbol Settings Each of the 20 symbol slots comes with a full set of customizable parameters : Symbol : Define or select the asset (e.g., XAUUSD, BTCUSD, EURUSD, etc.). Timeframe : Set your desired timeframe for each symbol (e.g., 15, 60, 240, 1D). Pivot Period : Set the length used to detect swing highs and lows. Shorter values increase sensitivity, longer ones focus on major structures. 🔵 Conclusion Mastering Market Structure and understanding the relationship between BOS and CHOCH allows traders to see the market with greater clarity and confidence. These two elements reveal how liquidity moves through different phases of expansion and retracement and how institutional order flow shifts between accumulation and distribution. By analyzing both internal and external structures, traders can align short term and long term perspectives and anticipate where price is most likely to react. The ability to read these structural shifts helps identify continuation points, reversals and areas where liquidity is engineered or collected. Incorporating Market Structure into a consistent trading process transforms the way a trader views the chart. Instead of reacting to random movements, each swing, break and shift becomes part of a logical framework that reflects the true behavior of the market. Understanding BOS and CHOCH is not just a concept but a complete language of price that guides every professional decision in Smart Money and ICT based trading.

Market Structure Report Library [TradingFinder]🔵 Introduction Market Structure is one of the most fundamental concepts in Price Action and Smart Money theory. In simple terms, it represents how price moves between highs and lows and reveals which phase of the market cycle we are currently in uptrend, downtrend, or transition. Each structure in the market is formed by a combination of Breaks of Structure (BoS) and Changes of Character (CHoCH) : BoS occurs when the market breaks a previous high or low, confirming the continuation of the current trend. CHoCH occurs when price breaks in the opposite direction for the first time, signaling a potential trend reversal. Since price movement is inherently fractal, market structure can be analyzed on two distinct levels : Major / External Structure: represents the dominant macro trend. Minor / Internal Structure: represents corrective or smaller-scale movements within the larger trend. 🔵 Library Purpose The “Market Structure Report Library” is designed to automatically detect the current market structure type in real time. Without drawing or displaying any visuals, it analyzes raw price data and returns a series of logical and textual outputs (Return Values) that describe the current structural state of the market. It provides the following information : Trend Type : External Trend (Major): Up Trend, Down Trend, No Trend Internal Trend (Minor): Up Trend, Down Trend, No Trend Structure Type : BoS : Confirms trend continuation CHoCH : Indicates a potential trend reversal Consecutive BoS Counter : Measures trend strength on both Major and Minor levels. Candle Type : Returns the current candle’s condition(Bullish, Bearish, Doji) This library is specifically designed for use in Smart Money–based screeners, indicators, and algorithmic strategies. It can analyze multiple symbols and timeframes simultaneously and return the exact structure type (BoS or CHoCH) and trend direction for each. 🔵 Function Outputs The function MS() processes the price data and returns seven key outputs, each representing a distinct structural state of the market. These values can be used in indicators, strategies, or multi-symbol screeners. 🟣 ExternalTrend Type : string Description : Represents the direction of the Major (External) market structure. Possible values : Up Trend Down Trend No Trend This is determined based on the behavior of Major Pivots (swing highs/lows). 🟣 InternalTrend Type : string Description : Represents the direction of the Minor (Internal) market structure. Possible values : Up Trend Down Trend No Trend 🟣 M_State Type : string Description : Specifies the type of the latest Major Structure event. Possible values : BoS CHoCH 🟣 m_State Type : string Description : Specifies the type of the latest Minor Structure event. Possible values : BoS CHoCH 🟣 MBoS_Counter Type : integer Description : Counts the number of consecutive structural breaks (BoS) in the Major structure. Useful for evaluating trend strength : Increasing count: indicates trend continuation. Reset to zero: typically occurs after a CHoCH. 🟣 mBoS_Counter Type : integer Description : Counts the number of consecutive structural breaks in the Minor structure. Helps analyze the micro structure of the market on lower timeframes. Higher value : strong internal trend. Reset : indicates a minor pullback or reversal. 🟣 Candle_Type Type : string Description : Represents the type of the current candle. Possible values : Bullish Bearish Doji import TFlab/Market_Structure_Report_Library_TradingFinder/1 as MSS PP = input.int (5 , 'Market Structure Pivot Period' , group = 'Symbol 1' ) = MSS.MS(PP)

ICT Venom Trading Model [TradingFinder] SMC NY Session 2025SetupIntroduction The ICT Venom Model is one of the most advanced strategies in the ICT framework, designed for intraday trading on major US indices such as US100, US30, and US500. This model is rooted in liquidity theory, time and price dynamics, and institutional order flow. The Venom Model focuses on detecting Liquidity Sweeps, identifying Fair Value Gaps (FVG), and analyzing Market Structure Shifts (MSS). By combining these ICT core concepts, traders can filter false breakouts, capture sharp reversals, and align their entries with the real institutional liquidity flow during the New York Session. Key Highlights of ICT Venom Model : Intraday focus : Optimized for US indices (US100, US30, US500). Time element : Critical window is 08:00–09:30 AM (Venom Box). Liquidity sweep logic : Price grabs liquidity at 09:30 AM open. Confirmation tools : MSS, CISD, FVG, and Order Blocks. Dual setups : Works in both Bullish Venom and Bearish Venom conditions. At its core, the ICT Venom Strategy is a framework that explains how institutional players manipulate liquidity pools by engineering false breakouts around the initial range of the market. Between 08:00 and 09:30 AM New York time, a range called the “Venom Box” is formed. This range acts as a trap for retail traders, and once the 09:30 AM market open occurs, price usually sweeps either the high or the low of this box to collect stop-loss liquidity. After this liquidity grab, the market often reverses sharply, giving birth to a classic Bullish Venom Setup or Bearish Venom Setup The Venom Model (ICT Venom Trading Strategy) is not just a pattern recognition tool but a precise institutional trading model based on time, liquidity, and market structure. By understanding the Initial Balance Range, watching for Liquidity Sweeps, and entering trades from FVG zones or Order Blocks, traders can anticipate market reversals with high accuracy. This strategy is widely respected among ICT followers because it offers both risk management discipline and clear entry/exit conditions. In short, the Venom Model transforms liquidity manipulation into actionable trading opportunities. Bullish Setup : Bearish Setup : 🔵 How to Use The ICT Venom Model is applied by observing price behavior during the early hours of the New York session. The first step is to define the Initial Range, also called the Venom Box, which is formed between 08:00 and 09:30 AM EST. This range marks the high and low points where institutional traders often create traps for retail participants. Once the official market opens at 09:30 AM, price usually sweeps either the top or bottom of this box to collect liquidity. After this liquidity grab, the market tends to reverse in alignment with the true directional bias. To confirm the setup, traders look for signals such as a Market Structure Shift (MSS), Change in State of Delivery (CISD), or the appearance of a Fair Value Gap (FVG). These elements validate the reversal and provide precise levels for trade execution. 🟣 Bullish Setup In a Bullish Venom Setup, the market first sweeps the low of the Venom Box after 09:30 AM, triggering sell-side liquidity collection. This downward move is often sharp and deceptive, designed to stop out retail long positions and attract new sellers. Once liquidity is taken, the market typically shifts direction, forming an MSS or CISD that signals a reversal to the upside. Traders then wait for price to retrace into a Fair Value Gap or a demand-side Order Block created during the reversal leg. This retracement offers the ideal entry point for long positions. Stop-loss placement should be just below the liquidity sweep low, while profit targets are set at the Venom Box high and, if momentum continues, at higher session or daily highs. 🟣 Bearish Setup In a Bearish Venom Setup, the process is similar but reversed. After the Initial Range is defined, if price breaks above the Venom Box high following the 09:30 AM open, it signals a false breakout designed to collect buy-side liquidity. This move usually traps eager buyers and clears out stop-losses above the high. After the liquidity sweep, confirmation comes through an MSS or CISD pointing to a reversal downward. At this stage, traders anticipate a retracement into a Fair Value Gap or a supply-side Order Block formed during the reversal. Short entries are taken within this zone, with stop-loss positioned just above the liquidity sweep high. The logical profit targets include the Venom Box low and, in stronger bearish momentum, deeper session or daily lows. 🔵 Settings 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. CISD : 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. 🔵 Conclusion The ICT Venom Model is more than just a reversal setup; it is a complete intraday trading framework that blends liquidity theory, time precision, and market structure analysis. By focusing on the Initial Range between 08:00 and 09:30 AM New York time and observing how price reacts at the 09:30 AM open, traders can identify liquidity sweeps that reveal institutional intentions. Whether in a Bullish Venom Setup or a Bearish Venom Setup, the model allows for precise entries through Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks, while maintaining clear risk management with well-defined stop-loss and target levels. Ultimately, the ICT Venom Model provides traders with a structured way to filter false moves and align their trades with institutional order flow. Its strength lies in transforming liquidity manipulation into actionable opportunities, giving intraday traders an edge in timing, accuracy, and consistency. For those who master its logic, the Venom Model becomes not only a strategy for entry and exit, but also a deeper framework for understanding how liquidity truly drives price in the New York session.

Order Block Volumatic FVG StrategyInspired by: Volumatic Fair Value Gaps — License: CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 (Creative Commons Attribution–NonCommercial–ShareAlike). This script is a non-commercial derivative work that credits the original author and keeps the same license. What this strategy does This turns BigBeluga’s visual FVG concept into an entry/exit strategy. It scans bullish and bearish FVG boxes, measures how deep price has mitigated into a box (as a percentage), and opens a long/short when your mitigation threshold and filters are satisfied. Risk is managed with a fixed Stop Loss % and a Trailing Stop that activates only after a user-defined profit trigger. Additions vs. the original indicator ✅ Strategy entries based on % mitigation into FVGs (long/short). ✅ Lower-TF volume split using upticks/downticks; fallback if LTF data is missing (distributes prior bar volume by close’s position in its H–L range) to avoid NaN/0. ✅ Per-FVG total volume filter (min/max) so you can skip weak boxes. ✅ Age filter (min bars since the FVG was created) to avoid fresh/immature boxes. ✅ Bull% / Bear% share filter (the 46%/53% numbers you see inside each FVG). ✅ Optional candle confirmation and cooldown between trades. ✅ Risk management: fixed SL % + Trailing Stop with a profit trigger (doesn’t trail until your trigger is reached). ✅ Pine v6 safety: no unsupported args, no indexof/clamp/when, reverse-index deletes, guards against zero/NaN. How a trade is decided (logic overview) Detect FVGs (same rules as the original visual logic). For each FVG currently intersected by the bar, compute: Mitigation % (how deep price has entered the box). Bull%/Bear% split (internal volume share). Total volume (printed on the box) from LTF aggregation or fallback. Age (bars) since the box was created. Apply your filters: Mitigation ≥ Long/Short threshold. Volume between your min and max (if enabled). Age ≥ min bars (if enabled). Bull% / Bear% within your limits (if enabled). (Optional) the current candle must be in trade direction (confirm). If multiple FVGs qualify on the same bar, the strategy uses the most recent one. Enter long/short (no pyramiding). Exit with: Fixed Stop Loss %, and Trailing Stop that only starts after price reaches your profit trigger %. Input settings (quick guide) Mitigation source: close or high/low. Use high/low for intrabar touches; close is stricter. Mitigation % thresholds: minimal mitigation for Long and Short. TOTAL Volume filter: skip FVGs with too little/too much total volume (per box). Bull/Bear share filter: require, e.g., Long only if Bull% ≥ 50; avoid Short when Bull% is high (Short Bull% max). Age filter (bars): e.g., ≥ 20–30 bars to avoid fresh boxes. Confirm candle: require candle direction to match the trade. Cooldown (bars): minimum bars between entries. Risk: Stop Loss % (fixed from entry price). Activate trailing at +% profit (the trigger). Trailing distance % (the trailing gap once active). Lower-TF aggregation: Auto: TF/Divisor → picks 1/3/5m automatically. Fixed: choose 1/3/5/15m explicitly. If LTF can’t be fetched, fallback allocates prior bar’s volume by its close position in the bar’s H–L. Suggested starting presets (you should optimize per market) Mitigation: 60–80% for both Long/Short. Bull/Bear share: Long: Bull% ≥ 50–70, Bear% ≤ 100. Short: Bull% ≤ 60 (avoid shorting into strong support), Bear% ≥ 0–70 as you prefer. Age: ≥ 20–30 bars. Volume: pick a min that filters noise for your symbol/timeframe. Risk: SL 4–6%, trailing trigger 1–2%, distance 1–2% (crypto example). Set slippage/fees in Strategy Properties. Notes, limitations & best practices Data differences: The LTF split uses request.security_lower_tf. If the exchange/data feed has sparse LTF data, the fallback kicks in (it’s deliberate to avoid NaNs but is a heuristic). Real-time vs backtest: The current bar can update until close; results on historical bars use closed data. Use “Bar Replay” to understand intrabar effects. No pyramiding: Only one position at a time. Modify pyramiding in the header if you need scaling. Assets: For spot/crypto, TradingView “volume” is exchange volume; in some markets it may be tick volume—interpret filters accordingly. Risk disclosure: Past performance ≠ future results. Use appropriate position sizing and risk controls; this is not financial advice. Credits Visual FVG concept and original implementation: BigBeluga. This derivative strategy adds entry/exit logic, volume/age/share filters, robust LTF handling, and risk management while preserving the original spirit.

Inversion Fair Value Gap Signals [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW This script is a custom signal tool called Inversion Fair Value Gap Signals (IFVG) , designed to detect, track, and visualize fair value gaps (FVGs) and their inversions directly on price charts. It identifies bullish and bearish imbalances, monitors when these zones are mitigated or rejected, and extends them until resolution or expiration. What makes this script original is the inclusion of inversion logic—when a gap is filled, the area flips into an opposite "inversion fair value gap," creating potential reversal or continuation zones that give traders additional context beyond classic FVG analysis. 🟠 CONCEPTS The script builds on the Smart Money Concepts (SMC) principle of fair value gaps, where inefficiencies form when price moves too quickly in one direction. Detection requires a three-bar sequence: a strong up or down move that leaves untraded price between bar highs and lows. To refine reliability, the script adds an ATR-based size filter and prevents overlap between zones. Once created, gaps are tracked in arrays until mitigation (price closing back into the gap), expiration, or transformation into an inversion zone. Inversions act as polarity flips, where bullish gaps become bearish resistance and bearish gaps become bullish support. Lower-timeframe volume data is also displayed inside zones to highlight whether buying or selling pressure dominated during gap creation. 🟠 FEATURES Automatic detection of bullish and bearish FVGs with ATR-based thresholding. Inversion logic: mitigated gaps flip into opposite-colored IFVG zones. Volume text overlay inside each zone showing up vs down volume. Visual markers (△/▽ for FVG, ▲/▼ for IFVG) when price exits a zone without mitigation. 🟠 USAGE Apply the indicator to any chart and enable/disable bullish or bearish FVG detection depending on your focus. Use the colored gap zones as areas of interest: bullish gaps suggest possible continuation to the upside until mitigated, while bearish gaps suggest continuation down. When a gap flips into an inversion zone, treat it as potential support/resistance—bullish IFVGs below price may act as demand, while bearish IFVGs above price may act as supply. Watch the embedded up/down volume data to gauge the strength of participants during gap formation. Use the △/▽ and ▲/▼ markers to spot when price rejects gaps or inversions without filling them, which can indicate strong trending momentum. For practical use, combine alerts with your trade plan to track when new gaps form, when old ones are resolved, or when key zones flip into inversions, helping you align entries, targets, or reversals with institutional order flow logic.

Multi Timeframe BOS & rBOSThis is the same Multi-Timeframe Break of Structure and Market Structure Shift posted by Lenny_Kiruthu. However, the only difference is the naming of Market Structure Shift to rBOS (Break of Structure Reverse). To me, they are all break of structures when previous peaks or valleys are violated. The only difference is in sequence. Once a sequence of BOS reverses, then a new sequence begins. To me, this simplifies the various terminology incorporated by different systems such as ICT or SMT which adds unnecessary complexity. eT

Price Level Highlighter [ldlwtrades]This indicator is a minimalist and highly effective tool designed for traders who incorporate institutional concepts into their analysis. It automates the identification of key psychological price levels and adds a unique, dynamic layer of information to help you focus on the most relevant area of the market. Inspired by core principles of market structure and liquidity, it serves as a powerful visual guide for anticipating potential support and resistance. The core idea is simple: specific price points, particularly those ending in round numbers or common increments, often act as magnets or barriers for price. While many indicators simply plot static lines, this tool goes further by intelligently highlighting the single most significant level in real-time. This dynamic feature allows you to quickly pinpoint where the market is currently engaged, offering a clear reference point for your trading decisions. It reduces chart clutter and enhances your focus on the immediate price action. Features Customizable Price Range: Easily define a specific Start Price and End Price to focus the indicator on the most relevant area of your chart, preventing unnecessary clutter. Adjustable Increment: Change the interval of the lines to suit your trading style, from high-frequency increments (e.g., 10 points) for scalping to wider intervals (e.g., 50 or 100 points) for swing trading. Intelligent Highlighting: A key feature that automatically identifies and highlights the single horizontal line closest to the current market price with a distinct color and thickness. This gives you an immediate visual cue for the most relevant price level. Highly Customizabile: Adjust the line color, style, and width for both the main lines and the highlighted line to fit your personal chart aesthetic. Usage Apply the indicator to your chart. In the settings, input your desired price range (Start Price and End Price) to match the market you are trading. Set the Price Increment to your preferred density. Monitor the chart for the highlighted line. This is your active price level and a key area of interest. Combine this tool with other confirmation signals (e.g., order blocks, fair value gaps, liquidity pools) to build higher-probability trade setups. Best Practices Pairing: This tool is effective across all markets, including stocks, forex, indices, and crypto. It is particularly useful for volatile markets where price moves rapidly between psychological levels. Mindful Analysis: Use the highlighted level as a reference point for your analysis, not as a standalone signal. A break above or below this level can signify a shift in market control. Backtesting: Always backtest the indicator on your preferred market and timeframe to understand how it performs under different conditions.
