SMC FVG/IFVG (Multi-TF x 4) [ZAUTEC]SMC FVG/IFVG (Multi-TF x 4): Multi-Timeframe Fair Value Gap with Inversed FVG Detection
This powerful Pine Script indicator is designed to help traders identify, track, and manage Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and their respective Inversed Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) across up to four different timeframes simultaneously.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Analysis (4x): Analyze and display FVGs from four distinct timeframes alongside your current chart, offering a comprehensive view of market imbalances across various scales.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection: Automatically identifies classic three-candle FVGs (market inefficiencies).
Customizable FVG Length: Set how many bars the FVG boxes should initially extend for.
Minimum Gap Size: Filter out minor, insignificant gaps using a tick-based minimum size threshold.
Optional Box Extension: Dynamically extend FVG boxes to the current bar index or use a fixed extension for a cleaner chart.
Inversed FVG (IFVG) Logic: Detects a high-probability reversal pattern where a previously filled FVG zone is immediately followed by the formation of a new, opposite FVG within or adjacent to the same area. This confirms the old FVG has "flipped roles" (e.g., from support to resistance).
Lookback Period: Defines how long the indicator searches for a corresponding FVG breach to confirm the IFVG.
IFVG Minimum Size: Customizable minimum size threshold for the IFVG.
Dynamic Box Management:
Automatic Fill Deletion: FVGs are automatically removed from the chart when price action fully trades through the gap, signifying the imbalance has been "filled."
IFVG Tracking: IFVGs are tracked and removed from the chart after the configurable lookback period.
Full Customization: Control the visibility, colors, border styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and width for FVG, Bearish FVG, Bullish FVG, and IFVG boxes independently for each of the four timeframes.
How to Use
Select Timeframes: Choose up to four desired timeframes in the settings (e.g., "15" for 15-minute, "4H" for 4-hour, "D" for Daily). Leave the field empty to use the chart's current timeframe.
Toggle Visibility: Use the Show FVG and Show IFVG toggles to focus on the imbalances you wish to see.
Adjust Extension: Set Extend Boxes to bar index to true to keep all open FVG boxes drawn all the way to the current live price bar.
Interpret the Gaps:
FVG (Bullish/Bearish): Potential areas for price to return to and find support/resistance.
IFVG (Inverse FVG): Stronger signals that a previous zone of imbalance has been violated and is likely to act as a significant flip zone for future price movements.
This indicator is an essential tool for traders utilizing concepts like ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and SMC (Smart Money Concepts), providing a clear visual representation of market structure and liquidity voids.

Dinkan Price Action Pro | Pure Price Action Toolkit🔸 Overview
Dinkan Price Action Pro is a pure price-action research toolkit that automatically detects and visualizes Order Blocks (OB), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), merged-candle hidden structures, liquidity zones (including HTF bias liquidity), and trendline & chart-pattern liquidity.
This indicator helps traders align with the Higher Time Frame (HTF) bias — the direction of the dominant institutional wave — and uncover hidden candlestick structures that normal timeframe charts never show.
⚙️ Core Features
✅ Automatic Order Block detection (bullish & bearish)
✅ Fair Value Gaps with real-time fill tracking
✅ Merged-Candle Engine — reveals hidden structures between standard timeframes
✅ Liquidity Zones — equal highs/lows, trendline liquidity & HTF liquidity pools
✅ HTF Bias Engine — detect directional bias across multiple timeframes
✅ Auto Trendlines & Chart Pattern Liquidity
🔍 How It Works (Step by Step)
🕯️ A. Merged Candle Engine (Hidden Structure)
1️⃣ Choose how many candles to merge (e.g., 3–5).
2️⃣ The script groups candles backward from the current bar in continuous sets.
3️⃣ Each merged candle forms using:
• Open = first candle’s open • Close = last candle’s close
• High = highest high • Low = lowest low
4️⃣ These new candles expose “hidden” structures between fixed timeframes — revealing true base-impulse patterns missed by normal charts.
🟩 B. Order Block Detection
Detects consolidation (base) followed by strong impulse.
Marks demand (green) and supply (red) zones automatically.
Strength calculated using impulse range (and volume, if available).
Older, mitigated OBs can be hidden for clarity.
🟦 C. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Automatically detects imbalances between consecutive candles.
Unfilled FVGs are highlighted; once filled, zones fade or gray out.
Works dynamically across merged and standard candles.
🟧 D. Liquidity Zones
Finds equal highs/lows, wick clusters, and structural liquidity.
Trendline liquidity and chart-pattern liquidity detected in real time.
Projects HTF liquidity zones from higher charts down to current timeframe.
🔺 E. HTF Bias Engine
Analyzes higher and medium timeframes (HTF/MTF) using CISD-style confirmation.
Bias auto-adjusts or can be manually selected.
🧭 Purpose: Identify the dominant institutional flow and trade in its direction.
⏰ Timeframe Alignment
Recommended structure:
HTF: 4H or 1D
MTF: 1H or 30M
LTF: 15M or 5M
Users may let the script auto-adjust or manually configure each timeframe combination.
📘 Inputs & Settings
🔹 OB sensitivity (Low / Medium / High)
🔹 Volume weighting toggle
🔹 HTF & MTF selection (Auto / Manual)
🔹 Multi-symbol mode
🔹 Visual toggles (OB, FVG, trendlines, merged candles, bias labels)
🔹 Alert toggles (zone touch, bias flip, hidden structure detection)
📊 How to Use — Workflow Example
1️⃣ Load the indicator on your chart.
2️⃣ Check the HTF Bias direction — trade only in that direction.
3️⃣ Identify nearby Order Blocks or FVGs inside HTF liquidity areas.
4️⃣ Watch the Merged Candle View to confirm hidden structures (base + impulse).
5️⃣ Wait for LTF confirmation (e.g., small structure break, wick rejection).
6️⃣ Place stop beyond the opposite OB edge; target next liquidity cluster.
🎯 This workflow aligns your lower-timeframe trades with the dominant higher-timeframe flow.
🧱 Repainting & Stability
Completed OBs and FVGs remain static — they do not repaint.
Real-time zones during candle formation can update until candle closes (standard behavior).
Merged candles are recalculated each bar; once a group closes, it remains fixed historically.
⚠️ Limitations
This is not a buy/sell signal generator.
Volume-weighted features require volume data.
Use responsible risk management and independent confirmation methods.
🔒 Invite-Only / Locked Code
The script is published as invite-only to protect proprietary implementations of:

Invite-only publishing complies with TradingView rules.
All logic, purpose, and usage are fully described here for transparency.
🧩 Originality & Usefulness
This script is an original integrated system, not a simple mashup.
Each module is interconnected to provide a unified analytical process:
The Merged Candle Engine creates hybrid bars that expose hidden base–impulse patterns.
These merged bars feed into the Order Block and Fair Value Gap logic, refining zone accuracy.
The Liquidity Detector references those zones and merged bars to locate valid structural pools.
Finally, the HTF Bias Engine confirms directional context across multiple pairs and timeframes.
Together, these elements form a dynamic framework that interprets institutional footprints and structure flow — something no single indicator can achieve individually.
The combination produces new analytical value: a precise, adaptive HTF bias alignment and structure-based liquidity map in one visual system.

ICT 1st Presented FVG After RTH OpenICT 1st Presented FVG After RTH Open
Overview
This indicator identifies and tracks the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms after the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) open, based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts. It monitors price behavior and reaction to this initial FVG throughout the trading session.
Key Features
📊 Smart FVG Detection
• Automatically identifies the first valid FVG after RTH open (default: 9:30-10:00 AM ET)
• Filters noise using ATR-based minimum gap size validation
• Option to display all FVGs or just the first one
• Visual distinction between the first FVG and subsequent ones
⏰ Customizable Time Settings
• Adjustable RTH window (default: 9:30-10:00 AM)
• Multiple timezone support (New York, Chicago, London, Tokyo)
• Flexible tracking duration and sampling intervals
📈 Price Reaction Tracking
• Monitors price behavior relative to the first FVG over time
• Tracks whether price remains above, below, or inside the FVG zone
• Records price distance from FVG boundaries
• Displays real-time data in an easy-to-read table
• Volume tracking at each sample interval
🎨 Visual Elements
• Color-coded FVG boxes (green for bullish, red for bearish)
• Timestamp labels showing when each FVG formed
• Extendable boxes to track ongoing validity
• Optional background highlighting during RTH window
• Customizable table positions and display options
🔔 Alert System
• Visual markers on chart for easy backtesting
• Real-time programmatic alerts with detailed FVG information
• TradingView alert conditions for custom notifications
• Alerts include price range, gap size, and timestamp
Settings
Time Configuration:
• Timezone selection
• RTH start/end times
• Tracking duration (default: 120 minutes)
• Sample interval (default: 5 minutes)
FVG Validation:
• ATR length for gap size calculation
• Minimum gap size as ATR percentage
• Option to show all valid FVGs
Display Options:
• Custom colors for bullish/bearish FVGs
• Label visibility toggle
• Box extension options
• Maximum historical FVGs to display
• Info and reaction table positions
Use Cases
1. Entry Timing: Use the first FVG as a potential entry zone when price returns to fill the gap
2. Trend Confirmation: Monitor whether price respects or violates the first FVG
3. Session Analysis: Track how the first inefficiency of the session plays out over time
4. Backtesting: Visual markers allow easy historical analysis of FVG behavior
How It Works
The indicator waits for RTH to begin, then identifies the first three-candle pattern that creates a valid Fair Value Gap. Once detected, it:
1. Marks the FVG zone with a colored box
2. Begins tracking price position at regular intervals
3. Records data in a reaction table showing price behavior over time
4. Continues monitoring until the tracking duration expires or a new trading day begins
Notes
• Resets daily to track each session independently
• Works on any timeframe, though lower timeframes (1-5 min) are recommended for intraday FVG detection
• The "first presented" FVG concept emphasizes the importance of the initial inefficiency created after market open
• Historical FVGs are preserved up to the display limit for reference
This indicator is designed for traders familiar with ICT concepts and Fair Value Gap trading strategies. It combines automated detection with comprehensive tracking to help identify high-probability trading opportunities.
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.
FVG - Sweep [TradeWithRon]FVG – Sweep - A multi-layer liquidity and imbalance detection system designed to help traders identify high-probability zones where price is likely to react.
🔍 Overview
This indicator combines Sweep Detection , Fair Value Gap (FVG) logic, and Change in State of Delivery (CISD) confirmation into a single streamlined tool. It helps traders visually connect liquidity grabs, displacement imbalances, and continuation or reversal opportunities — all in one chart.
⚙️ How It Works
1. Sweep Detection (Liquidity Grabs)
Detects when price takes liquidity above a previous high or below a previous low, then rejects it.
Alerts trigger when a bullish or bearish sweep is confirmed.
2. CISD Confirmation (Change in State of Delivery)
Identifies structural shifts using candle body direction and previous swing breaks.
Confirms when price transitions from expansion to contraction or vice versa.
CISD alerts notify when new shifts occur on any selected timeframe.
3. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
Automatically highlights the first valid FVG following a confirmed sweep optional or CISD.
Optional alert for IFVG confirmation.
🧩 Why It’s Powerful
Multiple conditions across separate tools — sweeps, imbalances, and structure shifts.
This indicator integrates all three into one system that can:
Detect liquidity grabs,
Confirm displacement through FVGs,
Validate momentum or reversals with CISD logic.
🧩 Ideal Use Case
Combine this tool with your existing strategy to:
Build liquidity + imbalance confluence zones
Spot reversal setups after sweeps
Track continuations after structural shifts
Automate alerts for precision entries
FVG Buy/Sell [Multi-TF] by akshaykiriti1443The FVG Buy/Sell indicator is a precision trading tool designed for traders who operate with a clear directional bias. It excels at identifying high-probability entry points by detecting when price interacts with Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
This indicator is built on a core principle: instead of predicting the market's direction, it provides the timing for an entry after you, the trader, have established your market bias. By automatically pinpointing bullish and bearish imbalances on both the current and a higher timeframe, it allows you to wait for the market to pull back to a key level and then provides a clear signal for execution.
The Core Strategy: Bias First, Entry Second
This indicator is most powerful when used as part of a two-step trading process. It is not a standalone signal generator; it is an entry confirmation tool.
Step 1: Determine Your Directional Bias
Before looking for any signals from this indicator, you must first have an opinion on the market's most likely direction. This bias should be derived from your primary analysis method, such as:
The Golden Rule:
If your bias is BULLISH, you will ONLY look for BUY signals generated by bullish (green/blue) FVGs. You will ignore all SELL signals.
If your bias is BEARISH, you will ONLY look for SELL signals generated by bearish (pink/orange) FVGs. You will ignore all BUY signals.
Step 2: Execute with the FVG Tap-In Signal
Once your bias is set, the indicator does the rest of the work. You simply wait for the price to pull back into an FVG zone that aligns with your bias and then wait for the confirmation arrow to appear.
A green up arrow confirms that price has tapped a bullish FVG and closed above it, signaling that support has held and it's a valid moment to enter a long position.
A red down arrow confirms that price has tapped a bearish FVG and closed below it, signaling that resistance has held and it's a valid moment to enter a short position.
How to Take a Trade (Step-by-Step Examples)
Example of a Bullish (Long) Trade Setup:
Establish Bias: Your primary analysis shows the market is in a clear uptrend. Your bias is Bullish. You are now only looking for buying opportunities.
Identify Zone: The indicator draws a bullish FVG (a green or blue box) during an impulsive up-move.
Wait for Pullback: Be patient and let the price retrace down into this FVG zone. Do not chase the price.
Confirmation Signal: A green UP arrow appears below a candle. This is your signal. It confirms that buyers have stepped in at the FVG level and defended it.
Entry: Enter a long (buy) position at the open of the candle immediately following the signal candle.
Stop Loss: Place your stop loss below the low of the signal candle or, for a safer stop, below the bottom of the FVG zone itself.
Take Profit: Target a previous high, a higher-timeframe resistance level, or use a risk-to-reward ratio like 1:2 or 1:3.
Example of a Bearish (Short) Trade Setup:
Establish Bias: Your primary analysis shows the market is breaking down into a downtrend. Your bias is Bearish. You are now only looking for selling opportunities.
Identify Zone: The indicator draws a bearish FVG (a pink or orange box) during an impulsive down-move.
Wait for Pullback: Patiently wait for the price to rally back up into this FVG zone.
Confirmation Signal: A red DOWN arrow appears above a candle. This is your confirmation that sellers have rejected the price at this level.
Entry: Enter a short (sell) position at the open of the next candle.
Stop Loss: Place your stop loss above the high of the signal candle or above the top of the FVG zone.
Take Profit: Target a previous low, a key support level, or the next major FVG below.
Features Explained in Detail
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis: HTF zones (dotted lines) carry more weight. A signal from a 4-hour FVG while you are on a 15-minute chart is significantly more powerful than a signal from a 15-minute FVG alone. Use HTF zones as major points of interest.
Confirmed Tap-In Logic: The arrow only appears after price has touched the zone and then closed outside of it in the expected direction. This built-in confirmation filters out wicks that simply pass through a zone without a real market reaction.
Dual Alert System:
Entry Alert ("Price has entered..."): This is a heads-up alert. It tells you to pay attention because price is now in your pre-defined zone of interest.
Tap-In Alert ("Confirmed tap-in..."): This is the execution alert. It signals that the conditions for a trade have been met according to the indicator's logic.
Fade on Tapped: When enabled, a zone will become transparent after a confirmed signal. This visually cleans up your chart, showing you which zones have already been tested and "mitigated."
Minimum FVG Size (Ticks): In volatile or ranging markets, many tiny, insignificant FVGs can form. Use this setting to filter out the noise. Increase the value to only display larger, more significant imbalances.
Disclaimer: Trading involves substantial risk. This indicator is a tool for analysis and should not be used as a sole reason to enter a trade. Always practice robust risk management and use this tool in conjunction with your own trading plan. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

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.

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.

FVG +Displcement/ATR/3thClosedBody [hatefbw]Overview
This indicator is a modified version of the LuxAlgo group’s FVG indicator. It now includes three advanced optional filters that help traders identify only the strongest and most reliable Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), aligned with Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT methodology.
How it works
We’ve added the following new configurable options to the indicator:
✅ Confirm Third Closed Body
When enabled, ensures the third candle (right after the gap) closes beyond the wick of the second candle.
✔️ Adds extra validation to price direction and filters out weaker FVGs.
✅ Confirm Displacement Candle
Validates that the second candle (the one forming the FVG) is a strong displacement candle. This condition checks for:
📏 Large body relative to total range (customizable %, default: 70%)
📈 High volume above 20-period moving average
🔺 Break of Structure (BOS) in the direction of the FVG
Bullish FVG: breaks above recent highs
Bearish FVG: breaks below recent lows
✅ ATR-Based Validation (optional)
Adds an additional filter where the second candle’s body or range must exceed the ATR (default: ATR 14, configurable).
✔️ Further confirms that the displacement candle has significant market movement.
Usage
All features are 100% optional and can be toggled in the settings.
Use them to filter out weak FVGs and align trades with institutional-grade setups.

ICT Suspension Block HTF [Herman]ICT Suspension Block HTF — auto-marking +SB / –SB with MTF
ICT Suspension Block HTF automatically detects and plots Suspension Blocks (SB ) on your chart and optionally pulls them from higher timeframes. It’s built for traders who want precise, visual SB zones with mitigation/entry alerts and a compact stats panel.
What’s a Suspension Block (SB) ?
-A Suspension Block is a body-to-body price imbalance formed by three consecutive candles in the same direction where the bodies create sequential “gaps” (a brief pause in price efficiency).
-Bullish +SB: three bullish candles with body-to-body gaps stepping up.
-Bearish –SB: three bearish candles with body-to-body gaps stepping down.
This script highlights the actionable block zone (between the body levels of the middle candle) and lets you extend it forward for reaction tests.
Note: This tool implements a widely discussed definition of Suspension Blocks for educational/analytical use.
Key features
-Auto detection: Plots +SB/–SB the moment a valid 3-candle structure forms.
-Multi-Timeframe (MTF):
-Current timeframe detection (toggle).
-MTF1 & MTF2 pulls (e.g., 5m and 15m by default) to show HTF SBs directly on your LTF chart.
-Smart de-duplication: Avoids drawing near-identical blocks (tick-aware tolerance).
-Midpoint line (optional): Draws the 50% of the block for refined confluence.
-Forward extension: Choose how far to extend the zone in bars.
Alerts:
-New +SB/–SB formed
-Price enters a block
-Block mitigated
-Stats table: Lightweight panel showing active +SB / –SB counts and average detected gap size.
Theme aware : Light/Dark table themes matched to Herman Trading visuals.

How mitigation & entry work
-Entry alert: Fires when price crosses into a block (from outside).
-Mitigation: When price tags the block boundaries (top/bottom), the zone is marked mitigated (faded, no further extension).
-The stats panel updates counts in real time.
Practical tips
-Use HTF SBs (e.g., 15m/1h) on your execution timeframe for higher-quality reaction zones.
-Combine with your existing framework (session timing, liquidity sweeps, iFVG/MSS, etc.).
-Tighten/loosen Min Gap Size to match instrument volatility.
-Keep Max Blocks reasonable for performance on very low timeframes.

Fair Value Gap + VI + FP_FVGThe Ultimate Fair Value Gap Indicator that you need.
Based on ICT's updated definition post 2022, if volume imbalances exists, we have to include the VI as part of the FVG.
As of 2025, ICT has introduced the suspension block - which is a FVG that has VI on both sides of the candle. This indicator shows the suspension block via the border.
Inclusive of HTF and current TF.
First Presented FVG is also included with the option to toggle current day and historical days.
Fair Value Gap / iVFG / Imbalance / MTF SuiteDescription
This indicator detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Imbalances across up to 10 user-selected timeframes and manages them with precise retest handling and clean visualization options.
What’s unique
3-candle FVG detection per timeframe (no lookahead).
Retest handling: on the first touch the touched edge snaps to the retest wick and the zone recolors (fresh → retested).
Right-side projection limits to avoid endless extensions.
Deterministic multi-TF overlay: HTF zones are computed independently (lookahead off) and drawn in a stable, priority-based order.
iFVG / parked zones: optionally convert a filled gap into an iFVG (parked/blue) instead of deleting/greying it.
Optional Imbalance Add-on (3-candle), with split halves + 50% midline.
How it works (technical)
FVG logic (3 candles):
Bullish when low > high (gap up); Bearish when high < low (gap down).
The created box spans the untraded range of candle B and starts at time .
Retest behavior:
On the first wick-touch, the nearest boundary adapts to the wick extreme. If enabled, the box recolors to a “retested” palette.
Projection:
Boxes extend to the right; optional bar limit constrains length.
Display limits:
FIFO pruning per direction keeps only the newest N boxes; iFVG/grey pools can share or use separate limits.
Imbalance Add-on (optional):
Classic 3-candle imbalance; draws upper/lower halves and an optional 50% midline.
No lookahead / confirmation:
Calculations run with barmerge.lookahead_off; detection finalizes on bar close (repaint-free on close).
How to use
Treat fresh gaps as potential reaction zones or confluence with liquidity / structure.
Use retested gaps for continuation or rejection logic.
Limit right-projection and visible count to keep charts readable on lower TFs.
Combine with your own execution rules (entries, stops, partials).
Key settings
General: adjust/recolor on retest, right-side limit (bars).
Display Limits: max visible per direction; separate iFVG cap if desired.
Visuals: filled vs. outline, transparency, TF labels (auto or custom), label alignment.
Theme: presets (Pegasus Classic, Icefire, Solarized, Heatmap, Pastel, Monochrome) or Custom colors.
Timeframes: enable up to 10 TF slots (e.g., M1/M5/M15/H1/H4/D1…).
Add-on — Imbalance: enable/disable, midline on/off, filled/outline, colors.
Alerts
New Bullish FVG
New Bearish FVG
Add-on: New Bullish Imbalance
Add-on: New Bearish Imbalance
Notes & limitations
FVG detection is confirmed on bar close; intrabar retest recolor can occur as price interacts.
Historical rendering depends on chart history & session settings.
Many TFs + large box counts can be heavy; use projection limits and display caps for performance.
This tool does not generate trade signals; it visualizes inefficiencies for discretionary or rules-based workflows.

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.

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.

Quantura - Quantified Price Action StrategyIntroduction
“Quantura – Quantified Price Action Strategy” is an invite-only Pine Script strategy designed to combine multiple price action concepts into a single trading framework. It integrates supply and demand zones, liquidity sweeps and runs, fair value gaps (FVGs), RSI filters, and EMA trend confirmation. The strategy also provides a visual overlay with dynamic trend-colored candles for easier chart interpretation. It is intended for multi-market use across cryptocurrencies, Forex, equities, and indices.
Originality & Value
The strategy is original in how it unifies several institutional-style price action elements and validates trades only when they align. This reduces noise compared to using single indicators in isolation. Its unique value lies in the combination of:
Supply & Demand detection: Dynamic boxes identified through pivots, ATR, and volume sensitivity.
Liquidity sweeps and runs: Detects when swing highs/lows are broken and retested, distinguishing between liquidity grabs (sweeps) and directional runs.
RSI filter: Can be set to normal or aggressive, confirming momentum before trades.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs): Optional detection and filtering of price inefficiencies.
EMA filter: Aligns trades with the broader market trend.
Trend candle visualization: Candles dynamically colored bullish, bearish, or neutral, based on strategy positions.
This layered confluence approach ensures that entries are not taken on a single condition but require agreement across several dimensions of market structure, momentum, and order flow.
Functionality & Indicators
Supply & Demand Zones: Zones are created when pivots, ATR sensitivity, and volume thresholds overlap.
Liquidity: Swing highs and lows are tracked, with options for sweep (fakeout/reversal) or run (continuation) detection.
RSI: Confirms long signals when oversold and shorts when overbought, with configurable aggressiveness.
FVG filter: Adds validation by requiring price interaction with inefficiency zones.
EMA filter: Ensures longs are above EMA and shorts below EMA.
Signals & Visualization: Trade entries are marked on the chart, while candles change color to reflect trade direction and status.
Parameters & Customization
Supply & Demand: Sensitivity (swing range, volume multiplier, ATR multiplier) and display options.
Liquidity filter: Mode (Run or Sweep), display, and swing length.
RSI: Enable/disable, length, and style (normal or aggressive).
Fair Value Gaps: Sensitivity via ATR factor, optional volume filter, and display toggles.
EMA: Length, enable/disable, and visualization.
Risk management: Up to three configurable take-profit levels, stop-loss, break-even logic, and capital-based position sizing.
Visualization: Custom candle coloring and optional overlay for better clarity.
Default Properties (Strategy Settings)
Initial Capital: 10,000 USD
Position Size: 100% of equity per trade (backtest default)
Commission: 0.1%
Slippage: 1
Pyramiding: 0 (only one position at a time)
Note: The default of 100% equity per trade is used for testing purposes only and would not be sustainable in real trading. A typical allocation in practice would be between 1–5% of account equity per trade, sometimes up to 10%.
Backtesting & Performance
Backtests on XPTUSD over 2.5 years with the default settings produced:
129 trades
73.64% win rate
Profit factor: 2.6
Maximum drawdown: 18.2%
These results show how the confluence of supply/demand, liquidity, and RSI filters can produce robust setups. However, past performance does not guarantee future results. While the trade count (129) is sufficient for statistical analysis, results may vary across markets and timeframes.
Risk Management
Three configurable take-profit levels with percentage allocation.
Initial stop-loss based on user-defined percentage.
Dynamic stop-loss that adjusts with market movement.
Break-even logic that shifts stops to entry after predefined gains.
Position sizing based on risk percentage of equity.
This framework allows both conservative and aggressive configurations, depending on user preference.
Limitations & Market Conditions
Works best in volatile and liquid markets such as crypto, metals, indices, and FX.
May produce false signals in low-volume or sideways environments.
Unexpected news or macro events can override technical conditions.
Default position sizing of 100% equity is highly aggressive and should be reduced before any practical use.
