GFG Turtle SoupThe GFG Turtle Soup indicator is a custom script designed to identify potential reversal points in the market by detecting specific price patterns over a user-defined lookback period. This indicator is based on the "Turtle Soup" strategy, which aims to exploit false breakouts and generate buy or sell signals when certain conditions are met.
Key Features:
Lookback Period: The indicator examines a user-defined period (default is 5 bars) to determine the highest high or lowest low, crucial for identifying potential reversal zones.
Signal Characters: The indicator provides visual cues on the chart using customizable characters (default is a turtle emoji 🐢) to mark potential bullish or bearish setups.
Pattern Detection:
Bearish Signal: A potential sell signal is generated when the current bar makes a higher high, but the close is lower than the high of the previous bar, signaling a possible reversal after a false breakout to the upside.
Bullish Signal: A potential buy signal is generated when the current bar makes a lower low, but the close is higher than the low of the previous bar, indicating a possible reversal after a false breakout to the downside.
Visual and Alert System: The indicator not only marks the signals on the chart but also triggers alerts, allowing traders to take action promptly on lower timeframes.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to identify reversal points where price may have overextended in one direction, providing opportunities to enter the market in the opposite direction.
Ictconcepts
ICT - MTF Bias ProbabilityThe ICT - MTF Bias Probability Statistics is a sophisticated trading tool designed to help traders identify and leverage market bias across multiple timeframes. By analyzing price actions relative to key levels, such as the previous day's high and low, this indicator provides a clear directional bias—bullish, bearish, or neutral—based on specific market conditions.
Key Features
1. Multi-Timeframe Analysis
- The indicator evaluates price movements on various timeframes, including 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, daily, and weekly charts.
- It determines the bias for each timeframe, helping traders understand the broader market context.
2. Bias Determination
- A bullish bias is established when the current price closes above the previous day’s high, while a bearish bias is indicated by a close below the previous day’s low.
- Additional conditions consider price wicks and closings within the previous day's range to refine the bias determination.
3. Advanced Probability Calculations
- The indicator employs a unique probability calculation that factors in proximity to key levels, price momentum, volatility, and time decay.
- These probabilities give traders an edge by quantifying the likelihood of the market reaching the previous day’s high or low, depending on the bias.
4. Visual Table Display
- A table is displayed on the chart, summarizing the bias and probability for each timeframe, alongside an overall market bias.
- This feature allows traders to quickly assess market conditions and make informed decisions.
5. Ideal Trade Levels
- For traders looking to optimize entry points, the indicator suggests ideal buy and sell levels based on New York midnight open prices, adjusted according to the overall bias.
The ICT - MTF Bias Probability Statistics is a powerful tool for traders who want to align their strategies with higher timeframe market trends while leveraging advanced probability analysis to improve decision-making.
Volume Gaps and ImbalancesThis Pine script indicator is designed to visually depict price inefficiencies, as identified by Volume Imbalances (VI) or Gaps. A Volume Gap is a scenario where the wicks of two successive candles don’t intersect, while an Imbalance occurs when only the wicks overlap, leaving the bodies apart. These zones of inefficiency frequently act as magnets for price, with the market striving rebalance in accordance with ICT principles.
Relevance:
Volume Gaps/Imbalances are zones of highly inefficient price delivery as per ICT concepts and represent a very strong draw to price. Price will often seek to rebalance those zones to ensure efficient price delivery. Consequently, these zones can provide good targets for entries in the opposite direction or take profit targets for previous entries in the direction of the Gap/Imbalance.
How It Works:
The indicator keeps track of all Gaps/Imbalances from the beginning of the available history. It automatically removes all mitigated Gaps/Imbalances, which are situations where the price has at least reached the bottom of a bullish gap or the top of a bearish gap.
On the last bar, the most recent valid gaps are highlighted with a box drawn from the start to the end of the gap. The start of a bullish gap is determined by the highest price of the previous candle’s open or close, while for bearish gaps, it’s the lowest price of the previous candle’s open or close. Conversely, the end of a bullish gap is the lowest price of the current candle’s open or close, and for bearish gaps, it’s the highest price of the current candle’s open or close.
To enhance the indicator’s speed and minimize chart noise, only the most recent gaps will be displayed, up to the limit set in the indicator settings.
Each displayed VI/GAP will indicate the size of the imbalance in ticks. For imbalances greater than 3 ticks, which represent stronger draws of liquidity, the color transparency will be reduced, and the text will be made more prominent. Volume Gaps are also marked with a 🧲 emoji for easy visual identification.
The indicator will automatically extend the boxes representing valid imbalances to the current bar for as long as the imbalance is not mitigated.
If an imbalance has been tapped, but not mitigated, the indicator will append 🚩emoji to denote that the imbalance has been partially mitigated and may no longer have as strong of a draw for price.
Configurability:
A user may configure the number of imbalances to show, the setting applies to bullish/bearish imbalances individually. This setting can be set to any value from 1 – 50.
Appearance wise, color, style and color transparency of each box representing an imbalance can be configured. The imbalance box label can be configured by setting the text size, along with the vertical & horizontal alignment.
What makes this indicator different:
Designed with high performance in mind, to reduce impact on chart render time.
Only keeps valid imbalances on the chart, with a limit on the # drawn
Indicates the size of the gap and provides visual markets to denote stronger, weaker and partially mitigated gaps

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
1. Order Blocks
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart.
The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenario, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.
2. Breaker Blocks
Breaker blocks form when an order block fails, or "breaks". It is often associated with market going in the opposite direction of the broken order block, and they can be spotted by following order blocks and finding the point they get broken, i.e. price goes below a bullish order block.
The volume of a breaker block is simply the total volume of the bar that the original order block is broken. Often the higher the breaking bar's volume, the stronger the breaker block is.
The strength of Order & Breaker Blocks are calculated by the size of the block to the Average True Range (ATR) of the chart.
3. Fair Value Gaps
Fair value gaps often occur when there is an imbalance in the market, and can be spotted with a specific formation on the chart.
The volume when the FVG occurs plays an important role when determining the strength of it, so we've placed two bars on the FVG zone, indicating the high & low volumes of the FVG. The high volume is the total volume of the last two bars on a bullish FVG, while the low volume is - of the FVG. For a bearish FVG, the total volume of the last two bars is the low volume. The indicator can also detect FVGs that exist in other timeframes than the current chart.
4. Inversion Fair Value Gaps
A Fair Value Gap generally occur when there is an imbalance in the market. They can be detected by specific formations within the chart. An Inverse Fair Value Gap is when a FVG becomes invalidated, thus reversing the direction of the FVG.
IFVGs get consumed when a Close / Wick enters the IFVG zone. Check this example:
5. Market Structures
Sometimes specific market structures form and break as the market fills buy & sell orders. Formed Change of Character (CHoCH) and Break of Structure (BOS) often mean that market will change direction, and they can be spotted by inspecting low & high pivot points of the chart.
The number of times the chart recently had a BOS is displayed between brackets, Ex : (3)
6. Liquidity Zones
Buyside & Sellside Liquidity zones are where most traders place their take-profits and stop-losses in their long / short positions. They are spotted by using high & low pivot points on the chart.
7. Liquidity Grabs
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a liquidity grab has occurred.
8. Premium & Discount Zones
The premium zone is a zone that is over the fair value of the asset's price, and the discount zone is the opposite. They are formed by the latest high & low pivot points.
If the latest close price is outside the Premium or Discount zone, you will see "Premium ⬆️" or "Discount ⬇️". These mean that the price is currently higher than the premium zone or lower than the discount zone.

FVG (ICT) with Swing LevelsThis indicator, called "Fair Value Gaps (ICT) with Swing Levels", overlays on the main chart and does the following:
Initial Setup:
It defines user-adjustable parameters:
lookback: Lookback period to keep FVGs visible.
swingPeriod: Period for calculating swing highs and lows.
bullColor and bearColor: Colors for bullish and bearish FVGs.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) Detection:
Uses a function to identify FVGs by comparing candle high and low prices.
A bullish FVG forms when the low of two candles ago is higher than the high of the current candle.
A bearish FVG forms when the high of two candles ago is lower than the low of the current candle.
Swing Levels Calculation:
Calculates swing highs and lows over the specified period.
These swing levels define the current market range.
Current Range Verification:
Implements a function to check if an FVG is within the range defined by swing levels.
This ensures only the most relevant FVGs for the current market situation are displayed.
FVG Drawing:
When it detects an FVG (bullish or bearish) within the current range, it draws a box on the chart.
Boxes extend from the bar where the FVG formed to the current bar.
Bullish FVGs are drawn in green and bearish in red (colors are customizable).
Old FVGs Management:
On each new bar, the indicator checks all existing FVG boxes.
It removes boxes that are outside the specified lookback period.
It also removes boxes that are no longer within the current range of swing levels.
Swing Levels Visualization:
Draws lines on the chart to show swing highs (in blue) and swing lows (in purple).
These lines help visualize the current market range.
Continuous Update:
The indicator updates on each new candle, constantly refreshing FVGs and swing levels.
In summary, this indicator identifies and visualizes Fair Value Gaps according to the ICT methodology, filtering them based on higher timeframe swing levels. This helps traders focus on the most significant FVGs within the current market context, reducing visual noise and potentially improving trading decision-making.
Curved Smart Money Concepts Probability (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Curved Smart Money Concepts Probability indicator, developed by Zeiierman, is a sophisticated trading tool designed to leverage the principles of Smart Money trading. This indicator identifies key market structure points and adapts to changing market conditions, providing traders with actionable insights into market trends and potential reversals. The trading tool stands out due to its unique curved structure and advanced probability features, which enhance its effectiveness and usability for traders.
█ How It Works
The indicator operates by analyzing market data to identify pivotal moments where institutional investors might be influencing price movements. It employs a combination of adaptive trend lengths, multipliers for sensitivity adjustments, and pivot periods to accurately capture market structure shifts. The indicator calculates upper and lower bands based on adaptive sizes and identifies zones of overbought (premium) and oversold (discount) conditions.
Key Features of Probability Calculations
The Curved Smart Money Concepts Probability indicator integrates sophisticated probability calculations to enhance trading decision-making:
Win/Loss Tracking: The indicator tracks the number of successful (win) and unsuccessful (loss) trades based on the identified market structure points (ChoCH, SMS, BMS). This provides a historical context of the indicator's performance.
Probability Percentages: For each market structure point (ChoCH, SMS, BMS), the indicator calculates the probability of the next move being successful or not. This is presented as a percentage, giving traders a quantifiable measure of confidence in the signals.
Dynamic Adaptation: The probability calculations adapt to market conditions by considering the frequency and success rate of the signals, allowing traders to adjust their strategies based on the indicator’s historical accuracy.
Visual Representation: Probabilities are displayed on the chart, helping traders quickly assess the likelihood of future price movements based on past performance.
Key benefits of the Curved Structure
The Curved Smart Money Concepts Probability indicator features a unique curved structure that offers several advantages over traditional linear structures:
Noise Reduction: The curved structure smooths out short-term market fluctuations, reducing the noise often seen in linear structures. This helps traders focus on the true trend direction rather than getting distracted by minor price movements.
Adaptive Sensitivity: The curved structure adjusts its sensitivity based on market conditions. This means it can effectively capture both short-term and long-term trends by dynamically adapting to changes in market volatility, something linear structures struggle with.
Enhanced Trend Detection: By providing a more gradual transition between market phases, the curved structure helps in identifying trends more accurately. This is particularly useful in volatile markets where linear structures might give false signals due to their rigid nature.
Improved Market Structure Analysis: The curved structure's ability to adapt and smooth out irregularities provides a clearer picture of the overall market structure. This clarity is essential for identifying premium and discount zones, as well as mid-range support and resistance levels, which are crucial for effective ICT Smart Money Trading.
█ Terminology
ChoCH (Change of Character): Indicates a potential reversal in market direction. It is identified when the price breaks a significant high or low, suggesting a shift from a bullish to bearish trend or vice versa.
SMS (Smart Money Shift): Represents the transition phase in market structure where smart money begins accumulating or distributing assets. It typically follows a BMS and indicates the start of a new trend.
BMS (Bullish/Bearish Market Structure): Confirms the trend direction. Bullish Market Structure (BMS) confirms an uptrend, while Bearish Market Structure (BMS) confirms a downtrend. It is characterized by a series of higher highs and higher lows (bullish) or lower highs and lower lows (bearish).
Premium: A zone where the price is considered overbought. It is calculated as the upper range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for selling or shorting.
Mid Range: The midpoint between the high and low of the market structure. It often acts as a support or resistance level, helping traders identify potential reversal or continuation points.
Discount: A zone where the price is considered oversold. It is calculated as the lower range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for buying or going long.
█ How to Use
Identifying Trends and Reversals: Traders can use the indicator to identify the overall market trend and potential reversal points. By observing the ChoCH, SMS, and BMS signals, traders can gauge whether the market is transitioning into a new trend or continuing the current trend.
Example Strategies
⚪ Trend Following Strategy:
Identify the current market trend using BMS signals.
Enter a trade in the direction of the trend when the price retraces to the mid-range zone.
Set a stop-loss just below the mid-range (for long trades) or above the mid-range (for short trades).
Take profit in the premium/discount zone or when a ChoCH signal indicates a potential reversal.
⚪ Reversal Strategy:
Wait for a ChoCH signal to identify a potential market reversal.
Enter a trade in the direction of the new trend as indicated by the SMS signal.
Set a stop-loss just beyond the recent high (for short trades) or low (for long trades).
Take profit when the price reaches the premium or discount zone opposite to the entry.
█ Settings
Curved Trend Length: Determines the length of the trend used to calculate the adaptive size of the structure. Adjusting this length allows traders to capture either longer-term trends (for smoother curves) or short-term trends (for more reactive curves).
Curved Multiplier: Scales the adjustment factors for the upper and lower bands. Increasing the multiplier widens the bands, reducing sensitivity to price changes. Decreasing it narrows the bands, making the structure more responsive.
Pivot Period: Sets the period for capturing trends. A higher period captures broader trends, while a lower period focuses on short-term trends.
Response Period: Adjusts the structure’s responsiveness. A low value focuses on short-term changes, while a high value smoothens the structure.
Premium/Discount Range: Allows toggling between displaying the active range or previous range to analyze real-time or historical levels.
Structure Candles: Enables the display of curved structure candles on the chart, providing a modified view of price action.

ICT Market Structure Screener (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The ICT Market Structure Screener (Zeiierman) is designed to identify and display key market structure levels and patterns based on Smart Money Concepts. It highlights bullish and bearish structures, premium and discount levels, and generates alerts for significant market structure changes, making it a valuable tool for traders looking to understand institutional trading behaviors and market trends. A key feature of this indicator is its screener function, which allows traders to monitor multiple symbols simultaneously. This feature provides a consolidated view of the market structure for various assets, making it easier to identify trading opportunities across a diverse portfolio.
█ How It Works
The ICT Market Structure Screener operates by identifying high and low pivot points within a specified period, then analyzing these pivots to determine changes in market structure. The indicator tracks price movements and categorizes them into bullish or bearish structures, indicating potential trend reversals or continuations. By plotting premium and discount levels, it helps traders identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator also provides real-time updates and alerts for significant changes in the market structure.
█ Terminology
ChoCH (Change of Character): Indicates a potential reversal in market direction. It is identified when the price breaks a significant high or low, suggesting a shift from a bullish to bearish trend or vice versa.
SMS (Smart Money Shift): Represents the transition phase in market structure where smart money begins accumulating or distributing assets. It typically follows a BMS and indicates the start of a new trend.
BMS (Bullish/Bearish Market Structure): Confirms the trend direction. Bullish Market Structure (BMS) confirms an uptrend, while Bearish Market Structure (BMS) confirms a downtrend. It is characterized by a series of higher highs and higher lows (bullish) or lower highs and lower lows (bearish).
Premium: A zone where the price is considered overbought. It is calculated as the upper range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for selling or shorting.
Mid Range: The midpoint between the high and low of the market structure. It often acts as a support or resistance level, helping traders identify potential reversal or continuation points.
Discount: A zone where the price is considered oversold. It is calculated as the lower range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for buying or going long.
█ How to Use
The ICT Market Structure Screener allows traders to follow smart money moves in the market more effectively. By identifying key market levels and monitoring bullish and bearish structures, traders can easily spot trend changes and strong trends. The indicator's premium and discount levels help identify overbought and oversold conditions, providing valuable entry and exit points. Alerts for ChoCH, SMS, and BMS keep traders informed about significant market changes, enabling real-time adjustments to trading strategies.
The screener functionality is particularly valuable for monitoring multiple markets simultaneously. The screener table displays critical information such as current price, trend direction, signal type, and premium/discount levels for each symbol. This makes it easier to track the market structure of various assets at a glance and quickly identify trading opportunities across different markets.
Example Strategies:
⚪ Trend Following: Use the indicator to identify the current market trend (bullish or bearish) and trade in the direction of the trend. Enter trades on pullbacks to premium (for shorts) or discount (for longs) levels.
⚪ Reversal Trading: Look for ChoCH signals to identify potential trend reversals. Enter trades when the price breaks a significant high or low and confirms a change in market structure, or wait for a retest of the nearest Orderblock that was formed.
⚪ Support and Resistance: Utilize the mid-range, premium, and discount levels as support and resistance zones. Enter trades when the price approaches these levels and shows signs of reversal or continuation.
⚪ Multi-Symbol Analysis: Use the screener table to monitor multiple symbols and quickly assess their market structure. This helps in diversifying trading opportunities and managing a portfolio of assets efficiently.
█ Settings
Period: The pivot period for calculating the structure. Increasing the period captures broader trends, making the structure more representative of long-term movements. Decreasing the period focuses on shorter-term trends, increasing sensitivity.
Response: Enabling this option uses the response period instead of the pivot period, providing more flexibility in capturing short-term or long-term structures. The period for the response, which determines the structure's sensitivity. Increasing the response period smoothens the structure, making it less reactive to short-term fluctuations. Decreasing the response period makes the structure more responsive to short-term changes.
Structure Display: Choose between displaying the active range or the previous range. 'Active Range' shows real-time premium, discount, and mid-range levels based on the current structure. 'Previous Range' displays past ranges, useful for analyzing historical support/resistance levels.
Ticker Symbols: List of symbols to include in the screener. Enabling the option includes the symbol in the screener, allowing the user to track its structure. Disabling it excludes the symbol from the screener, reducing the number of tracked symbols.

ICT opening price lineShows you the opening price of a certain time of day. I will show as line starting from the time selected and ending a few bars into the future. Available times are the ones ICT said are relevant for framing a premium and discount using opening prices: 00:00, 8:30 and 13:30. To show all 3 you have to add the indicator 3 times.
The script offers some customization on how the line should look line and if you want a label telling the time of it after the line.
ICT Opening Range GapOpening Range Gap
The Opening Range Gap, also known as the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) Gap, is the distance between the first opening tick of a session and the previous session's close, when looking at a chart's Regular Trading Hours (not to be confused with Electronic Trading Hours). This gap is an important element for Futures Market traders that follow the works of The Inner Circle Trader (ICT). To be more specific, the Opening Range Gap occurs between 4:15pm and 9:30am of the next day.
The Opening Range Gap can be viewed easily when switching the session type to "Regular trading hours".
The image above shows an example of an RTH Gap for Wednesday, June 12, 2024 in CME_MINI:ES1!
How To Use Opening Range Gap
The Opening Range Gap can be used like any other form of a gap by extending it into future price action and looking for it to be filled on the same day or the upcoming days.
Looking for 50% of the gap to be filled as an initial target is one of the methodologies taught by ICT. Additionally, the high and low of the gap (as well as the midpoint) can be used as points of dynamic support & resistance, even if the gap is already filled. Therefore, these gaps do not "expire", and they can be used as key price levels extended through to the end of the week.
Disclaimer
This indicator is mainly intended to work for Futures markets, and specifically the following Index Futures markets: E-mini S&P 500 Futures, E-mini NASDAQ-100 Futures, E-mini DOW Futures.
Given that, the indicator still supports various other markets/assets out-of-the-box, such as other types of Futures Markets, Stocks, Options, and more. The main difference will be that other markets may have RTH Gaps forming at different times, rather than the 4:15pm-9:30am gap that occurs in the Index Futures (Regular trading hours).
Indicator Purpose
While RTH Gaps can be labeled by hand, this indicator allows you to quickly plot multiple RTH Gaps and get a quick glimpse at potential gaps that you may have missed, which could end up being useful in your analysis.
This indicator is 100% custom-built, not using code from any other existing indicators that may plot Opening Range Gaps. The main purpose of this indicator was to overcome many shortcomings from other existing indicators, most notably the problem of displaying RTH Gaps while using ETH as the chart session.
Therefore, this indicator has many UNIQUE features, such as:
Ability to maintain accuracy of the closing/opening prices even when changing chart settings (e.g., toggling ETH/RTH sessions, toggling BACK-ADJUSTMENT on futures contracts, toggling SETTLEMENT prices, etc.).
Draw up to 25 previous Opening Range Gaps, even on ultra-low timeframes like the 1-minute or 1-second chart.
Automatically or manually choose which Opening Range Gaps to hide/show on the chart.
Highly customizable, including a different color scheme to easily distinguish between the Current and Previous RTH Gaps.
Modified price values to correctly display prices that use a format like 109'32 (e.g., Bond Futures or Wheat Futures).
Helpful tooltips to provide more detailed information about the RTH Gaps or about the current Input Settings.
Error Messages
There are some conditions which can cause the script to fail and display an error message (by clicking the red exclamation mark next to the indicator.)
Error messages:
Use a Standard Chart Type : this will occur when using a non-standard chart such as Heikin Ashi, Renko, Point & Figure, etc.
Use a Daily or Lower Timeframe : this error will appear when using a higher timeframe chart like weekly or monthly, because it can clutter the chart since RTH Gaps can form every day.
RTH Gap was not detected : this means that no RTH gap was found, which will occur on markets that don't have the option to toggle between ETH and RTH sessions (e.g., Forex or Crypto).
Exceeded the maximum lookback for Bar Replay mode : when using bar replay mode; this can depend on the amount of historical bars available in different account subscription types.
Unable to Activate Bar Replay mode : if the indicator could not be used in Bar Replay mode.
Restart Bar Replay : if the indicator works in Bar Replay but it detected an error that would cause RTH Gaps to be plotted incorrectly.
This is an example of what a script error would look like.
Indicator Settings
Most settings are self-explanatory or have a tooltip with information on what the setting does, but this section will only briefly cover the available settings.
Extend to End of Day : This setting is enabled by default. It will extend each RTH Gap only up to the end of its day (specifically, to the RTH close of the day). The option can be toggled OFF to automatically extend all RTH Gaps to the right-most candle on the chart.
Previous RTH Gaps : Between 1 and 25 previous RTH Gaps can be displayed. The checkbox can be toggled to quickly hide all previous RTH Gaps (but the same effect would be reached by setting the value to 0).
Hide Current RTH Gap : The Current RTH Gap (most recent one), can be optionally hidden from being plotted.
Beginning Anchor Point : Choose the beginning anchor point for all RTH Gaps. The default is "RTH Close", which means that each gap will be drawn on the chart starting from their previous session's RTH close @ 4:15pm. But it will be a more transparent version of the actual gap; this ghost-like image will extend from 4:15pm all the way up to 9:30am where the gap will then be drawn normally from 9:30am onwards. The other option for this setting is "RTH Open" which means that the gap will be drawn starting from the actual 9:30am opening.
Current RTH Gap Style
These settings are used to customize the visual style of the most recent RTH Gap (also known as the "Current" RTH Gap). Note: the exact same set of settings are available for the Previous RTH Gaps. The text label next to each gap can be optionally hidden to clean the chart a little.
Price Table
These are settings to customize the appearance of the Price Table on the right, including the ability to hide it completely. Note: to actually use the color configurations, you must select "Custom Style" in one of the dropdowns, otherwise it will use "Default Style" which means that the Price Table is automatically styled based on the colors chosen in the Current RTH Gap Style and Previous RTH Gap Style settings.
Overlap Handling
One of 7 available overlap handling options can be used to filter which RTH Gaps are plotted on the chart. By default, the "None" option will be selected, meaning that all valid RTH Gaps are plotted on the chart.
Formatting
Date Format : select the format of the date that is shown next to each RTH Gaps.
Timezone : choose the timezone for the RTH Gap closing/opening date-times that are displayed (only in tooltips when you hover over an RTH Gap label).
RTH Gap Label : choose the details to display next to each gap (e.g., date, or gap number, or both).
Price Format : only two options: Auto/Decimal. "Auto" uses custom processing to allow displaying values such as 109'32 for Bond futures.
Tooltips
The indicator provides additional details about an RTH Gap when you hover over a row in the Price Table.
Note: the same information can be found by hovering over the Text Label that is to the right of each RTH Gap (even when the Text Label is disabled via the Settings).
Overlap Handling
The tooltip next to "Select a Strategy" in the options will provide details on each overlap handling strategy. Additionally, when a strategy is selected, a new row in the Price Table will appear; hovering over that will show details about the currently selected strategy, as well as any suggestions in case the inputs were invalid. When a strategy hides an RTH Gap, the number in the Price Table will be replaced with an "Eye" icon, indicating that it is not currently plotted on the chart.
Available strategies are:
Option 1 (Gradients) : select the percentage opacity to shade RTH Gaps in. The more recent RTH Gaps will be closer to the maximum opacity defined, while the older RTH Gaps will appear more transparent, closer to the minimum opacity defined. Note: only affects previous RTH Gaps, not the current RTH Gap.
Option 2 (Day Extension) : select the number of days to extend each RTH Gap up to. Note: this will override the "Extend to End of Day" setting, regardless whether it is toggled ON or OFF.
Option 3 (Nested Gaps) : hides nested gaps, i.e., RTH Gaps that are enclosed within another RTH Gap. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Day" setting is disabled .
Option 4 (Intersecting Gaps) : hides intersecting/overlapping gaps, i.e., RTH Gaps that overlap one another (this may also include, but is not limited to, nested gaps). The drop-down next to this option allows choosing the priority of which RTH Gaps to hide first. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Day" setting is disabled .
Option 5 (Gap Width) : the chart will only show RTH Gaps that have a width/size between the defined parameters.
Option 6 (Close Proximity) : the chart will only show the RTH Gaps that are within a certain range from the market price. This can be useful when plotting multiple RTH Gaps while using auto-scaling on the chart. By only showing nearby RTH Gaps, it will prevent the auto-scaling from having to compress the candles to fit the far-away RTH Gaps onto the screen.
Option 7 (CSV) : this option is used if none of the others suit you well; it allows specifically choosing which RTH Gaps to hide or show on the chart.
This is an example that chooses the Overlap Handling Strategy Option 6. Note that in this example, the tooltip in the price table shows a warning that the Input Number should be increased to plot some RTH Gaps on the chart.
Tips
Chart settings can be toggled to "Scale price chart only" to prevent the auto-scaling of TradingView from compressing the chart if there are RTH Gaps that are far away from the current market action.
If you change a lot of indicator settings such as RTH Gap color schemes, you can save the settings as the Default to prevent your settings from resetting the next time you use the indicator.
ICT New Day Opening GapNew Day Opening Gap
The New Day Opening Gap (NDOG) is defined by The Inner Circle Trader (ICT) as the separation in time/price that is caused by the 1-hour break that occurs each day in the futures market. The opening price of the gap is the very first tick that occurs at the 6:00pm restart; then we look at the 5:00pm closing price of the previous session. This New Day Opening Gap forms every day from Monday to Friday, but it does not include the gap between Friday's close and Sunday's open (because that is instead referred to as a New Week Opening Gap).
This is an example of a New Day Opening Gap (NDOG) for Wednesday, May 22, 2024 in CME_MINI:ES1!
How To Use NDOG
When an NDOG forms, it can be extended into future price action. One way to use these gaps is to look for it to be filled in by price action. Another usage for these gaps is to look for support & resistance to come in at the high and low of these NDOGs (as well as the midpoint).
Disclaimer
This indicator is mainly intended to work for Futures markets, and specifically the following Index Futures markets: E-mini S&P 500 Futures, E-mini NASDAQ-100 Futures, E-mini DOW Futures.
Given that, the indicator still supports various other markets/assets out-of-the-box, such as other types of Futures Markets, Forex markets, Stocks, Options, and more. The main difference will be that other markets may have NDOGs forming at different times, rather than the 5pm-6pm gap that occurs in the Index Futures.
Indicator Features
This indicator is 100% custom-built, not using code from any other existing NDOG plotting indicators. The purpose of this indicator was to overcome many shortcomings from other existing indicators. Therefore, this indicator has many UNIQUE features, such as:
Ability to maintain accuracy of the closing/opening prices even when changing chart settings (e.g., toggling ETH/RTH sessions, toggling BACK-ADJUSTMENT on futures contracts, toggling SETTLEMENT prices, etc.).
Draw up to 25 previous NDOGs, even on ultra-low timeframes like the 1-minute or 1-second chart.
Automatically or manually choose which NDOGs to hide/show on the chart.
Highly customizable, including a different color scheme to easily distinguish between the Current and Previous NDOGs.
Modified price values to correctly display prices that use a format like 109'32 (e.g., Bond Futures or Wheat Futures).
Helpful tooltips to provide more detailed information about the NDOGs or about the current Input Settings.
Error Messages
There are some conditions which can cause the script to fail and display an error message (by clicking the red exclamation mark next to the indicator.)
Error messages:
Use a Standard Chart Type : this will occur when using a non-standard chart such as Heikin Ashi, Renko, Point & Figure, etc.
Use a Daily or Lower Timeframe : this error will appear when using a higher timeframe chart like weekly or monthly, because it can clutter the chart since NDOGs can form every day.
NDOG was not detected : this means that no NDOG was found, for example if the chart did not have enough bars/candles (e.g., some Options markets).
Exceeded the maximum lookback for Bar Replay mode : when using bar replay mode; this can depend on the amount of historical bars available in different account subscription types.
Unable to Activate Bar Replay mode : if the indicator could not be used in Bar Replay mode.
Restart Bar Replay : if the indicator works in Bar Replay but it detected an error that would cause NDOGs to be plotted incorrectly.
NDOG was not detected. Toggle "Error Handling" Option at your own discretion : this is more of a warning message that will appear when the indicator does not detect any actual gap between the days (e.g., Forex markets where it is continuously traded through each day, without any gap forming in between). But the warning can be dismissed by toggling the checkbox at the bottom of the Indicator's Input Settings.
This is an example of what a script error would look like.
Indicator Settings
Most settings are self-explanatory or have a tooltip with information on what the setting does, so this section will only briefly cover the available settings.
The "Extend to End of Week" option is enabled by default, which will extend each NDOG only up to the end of the week that it belongs to. This option can be toggled OFF to automatically extend all NDOGs to the right-most candle on the chart.
Previous NDOGs: Between 1 and 25 previous NDOGs can be displayed. The checkbox can be toggled to quickly hide all previous NDOGs (but the same effect would be reached by setting the value to 0).
Hide Current NDOG: the current NDOG (colored in Green in the example above), can be optionally hidden from being plotted.
These settings are used to customize the visual style of the most recent NDOG (also known as the "Current" NDOG). Note: the exact same set of settings are available for the Previous NDOGs. The text next to each NDOG can be optionally hidden to clean the chart a little.
These are settings to customize the appearance of the Price Table on the right, including the ability to hide it completely.
One of 7 available overlap handling options can be used to filter which NDOGs are plotted on the chart. By default, the "None" option will be selected, meaning that all valid NDOGs are plotted on the chart.
Date Format : select the format of the date that is shown next to each NDOG.
Timezone : choose the timezone for the NDOG closing/opening date-times that are displayed (only in tooltips when you hover over an NDOG label).
NDOG Label : choose the details to display next to each NDOG (e.g., date, or NDOG number, or both).
Price Format : only two options: Auto/Decimal. "Auto" uses custom processing to allow displaying values such as 109'32 for Bond futures.
This option can be toggled to allow displaying NDOGs for markets that may not have an actual gap between days, such as Forex markets, or BTC/USD (which is traded 24/7). Note: this option must be used at your own discretion because the opening/closing times for the NDOGs are not guaranteed to be accurate.
Tooltips
The indicator provides additional details about an NDOG when you hover over a row in the Price Table.
Note: the same information can be found by hovering over the Text Label that is to the right of each NDOG.
Overlap Handling
The tooltip next to "Select a Strategy" in the options will provide details on each overlap handling strategy. Additionally, when a strategy is selected, a new row in the Price Table will appear; hovering over that will show details about the currently selected strategy, as well as any suggestions in case the inputs were invalid. When a strategy hides an NDOG, the number in the Price Table will be replaced with an "Eye" icon, indicating that it is not currently plotted on the chart.
Available strategies are:
Option 1 (Gradients) : select the percentage opacity to shade NDOGs in. The more recent NDOGs will be closer to the maximum opacity defined, while the older NDOGs will appear more transparent, closer to the minimum opacity defined. Note: only affects previous NDOGs, not the current NDOG.
Option 2 (Week Extension) : select the number of weeks to extend each NDOG up to. Note: this will override the "Extend to End of Week" setting, regardless whether it is toggled ON or OFF.
Option 3 (Nested Gaps) : hides nested gaps, i.e., NDOGs that are enclosed within another NDOG. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Week" setting is disabled .
Option 4 (Intersecting Gaps) : hides intersecting/overlapping gaps, i.e., NDOGs that overlap one another (this may also include, but is not limited to, nested gaps). The drop-down next to this option allows choosing the priority of which NDOGs to hide first. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Week" setting is disabled .
Option 5 (Gap Width) : the chart will only show NDOGs that have a width between the defined parameters. This can be useful to filter out NDOGs that are deemed "insignificant". For example, the Inner Circle Trader will generally filter out of his analysis any NDOGs that are less than a point (4 ticks) for Index futures.
Option 6 (Close Proximity) : the chart will only show the NDOGs that are within a certain range from the market price. This can be useful when plotting multiple NDOGs while using auto-scaling on the chart. By only showing nearby NDOGs, it will prevent the auto-scaling from having to compress the candles to fit the far-away NDOGs onto the screen.
Option 7 (CSV) : this option is used if none of the others suit you well; it allows specifically choosing which NDOGs to hide or show on the chart.
This is an example that chooses the Overlap Handling Strategy Option 6. Note that in this example, the tooltip in the price table shows a warning that the Input Number should be increased to plot some NDOGs on the chart.
Tips
Chart settings can be toggled to "Scale price chart only" to prevent the auto-scaling of TradingView from compressing the chart if there are NDOGs that are far away from the current market action.
If you change a lot of indicator settings such as NDOG color schemes, you can save the settings as the Default to prevent your settings from resetting the next time you use the indicator.
Relative Equal Highs/LowsThis Pine script indicator is designed to create a visual representation of the relative equal highs & lows formed and automatically removed mitigated ones. Unlike indicators designed to show exact equal high/lows this indicator allows a small, configurable degree of variance between price to identify areas where price stops.
Relevance:
Relative Equal highs and lows can serve as valuable tools in identifying potential shifts in trend direction. They come into play when the price hits a support or resistance level and can’t advance further, signaling a possible reversal or pivot point. When the price sufficiently retreats from these levels, relative equal highs and lows can also indicate liquidity draws where buy/sell stops might be positioned, in accordance with SMC/ICT concepts.
How It Works:
The indicator tracks all unmitigated highs & lows within the chart’s present timeframe, limited to the user-defined max bars lookback for optimal performance. If the prices are within the configured variance they are marked as relatively equal and at that point are visually identified by a horizontal line, which connects the two (or more) points of price. Depending on configuration of the indicator, a line is rendered from the 1st, last or both values within the relatively equal range of price. A unique feature of this indicator is its ability to remove the line once the price mitigates the relative equal high/low by falling below the lows or rising above highs. This ensures the chart remains uncluttered and highlights only the currently relevant levels, setting it apart from other indicators providing similar functionality.
Configurability:
The indicator offers five style settings for complete customization of the lines that represent equal highs/lows. These settings include line style, color, and width, along with an option to extend the lines to the right of the chart for enhanced visibility of equal high/low levels. To optimize performance, the indicator allows users to configure the lookback length, determining how far back the price history should be examined. In most instances, the default setting of 500 bars proves more than adequate. Additionally, you can set thresholds via separate configs for stocks & indices that will determine if the price is relatively equal and lastly allow you to configure where the indicator line should be drawn, the first, last or all the values.
Additional notes:
This uses a different approach then my “equal highs/lows” indicator to identify price levels and because it focuses specifically on relative as opposed to exact values it is entirely different and may show “weaker”, but still important levels of liquidity. This indicator is more suited for analysis of stocks and indices or higher-timeframes where price-action rarely forms exact equal values instead more frequently forming almost equal values. My other indicator is more suited for smaller (15m or less) timeframe on indices where exact equal prices are often identical. Depending on situation different indicators should be used.
Propulsion Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Propulsion Blocks indicator! This new indicator can find & render ICT's propulsion blocks in the current ticker. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings. For more information, please visit the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Features of the new Propulsion Blocks indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Propulsion Blocks
Customizable Algorithm
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart. One of which this indicator uses requires a large engulfing candlestick right after another one of the opposite direction. Then if the price comes back to retest the area that two candlesticks create, then it's an order block pattern.
Propulsion blocks are a specific type of order block used in the trading methodology. They build on the concept of order blocks and aim to identify potential areas for strong price movements. They are detected when a candlestick wicks to any existing order block, retesting it. Then a strong momentum in the direction of the order block is needed for the propulsion block to get created. Check this example :
You can use them as entry / exit points, or for confirmations for your trades. For example, a successful retest attempt to a bullish propulsion block might hint a strong bullish momentum. This indicator works best when used together with other ICT concepts.
🚩UNIQUENESS
Propulsion blocks can help traders identify key levels in a chart, and can be used mainly for confirmation. This indicator can identify and show them automatically in your chart, and provides customization settings for order & propulsion block detection and invalidation. Another capability of the indicator is that it combines overlapping order & propulsion blocks so you will have a clean look at the chart without any overlapping zones.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Show Historic Zones -> This setting will hide invalidated propulsion blocks if enabled.
Max Distance To Last Bar -> This setting defines the maximum range that the indicator will find propulsion blocks to the past. Higher options will make older zones visible.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block & Propulsion Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
Equal Highs and LowsDescription:
The ‘Equal Highs and Lows’ indicator is a technical analysis tool that marks identical price levels on a trading chart using the current time-frame, assisting traders in identifying potential support and resistance zones or liquidity draws. It creates a horizontal line connecting points where the price has created equal highs and lows within a specified lookback period. Unique to this tool, it maintains a clean chart by removing the line once the price surpasses the equal highs or falls below the equal lows, ensuring only the currently relevant equal highs and lows are highlighted.
Features:
Customization Options: Users can adjust the appearance of the lines (color, width, and style) to match their chart setup or preferences. Users can also choose to extend the lines marking the equal highs/lows to the right of the chart making the equal high/low levels more easier to visualize.
User-Defined Lookback Length: The number of bars to look back for finding equal highs and lows can be set by the user, allowing for flexibility in different market conditions.
How It Works:
The indicator meticulously scans the chart over a user-specified lookback duration, identifying bars with matching high or low values that have not been mitigated on the current chat timeframe, thereby constructing an index of equal values. It subsequently connects these equal values on the chart with a line. While this intuitive indicator does not forecast future market trends, it emphasizes significant price levels derived from historical data.
Usage:
Identifying Support and Resistance: The lines drawn by the indicator can be used to identify potential support and resistance zones and/or draws of liquidity, which are crucial for making informed trading decisions.
Strategy Development: Traders can incorporate the visual cues provided by the indicator into their trading strategies, using them as one of the factors for entry or exit decisions.
Originality:
This indicator presents a distinctive method for pinpointing and illustrating equal highs and lows, granting traders a crucial insight into key price levels. It stands apart from conventional indicators by offering extensive personalization and employing a novel approach to augment chart analysis. Uniquely, it retains only unmitigated equal high/low levels on the chart, automatically discarding mitigated price levels once the price has reached that level.
Conclusion:
The "Equal Highs and Lows" indicator is a practical tool for traders looking to enhance their chart analysis with visual cues of significant price levels. Its customization options and innovative approach make it a valuable addition to the trading toolkit, suitable for various trading styles and strategies.
Hourly Opening PriceThe Inner Circle Trader has noted that the Opening Price of every Hourly candle can be used in a Power Of 3 (PO3) context.
If Bullish, buy BELOW the hourly open.
If Bearish, sell ABOVE the hourly open.
The Power of 3 ICT model also know as "AMD" is a transformative trading strategy, ingeniously designed to streamline your time analyzing charts by focusing on three pivotal phases in market behavior: accumulation, manipulation, and distribution.
The ICT Power of Three Model dissects the market maker’s algorithm for price delivery into three pivotal actions: Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution. Accumulation involves smart money gathering positions before a price surge, while manipulation sees the market creating deceptive movements to trigger stops. Finally, distribution occurs as smart money offloads positions, often catching less informed traders off-guard. This strategy is a critical tool for traders to understand market makers’ maneuvers and to strategically position themselves in the market.
This indicator plots a line at the opening price of each hour and extends it on the chart for the duration of the hour. Each hour starts a new line.
You also have the option of extending the midnight opening price line across the entire trading day.
ICT Turtle Soup | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Turtle Soup Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT "Turtle Soup" model. The strategy has 5 steps for execution which are described in this write-up. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Turtle Soup Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Turtle Soup Strategy
Adaptive Entry Method
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The ICT Turtle Soup strategy may have different implementations depending on the selected method of the trader. This indicator's implementation is described as :
1. Mark higher timerame liquidity zones.
Liquidity zones are where a lot of market orders sit in the chart. They are usually formed from the long / short position holders' "liquidity" levels. There are various ways to find them, most common one being drawing them on the latest high & low pivot points in the chart, which this indicator does.
2. Mark current timeframe market structure.
The market structure is the current flow of the market. It tells you if the market is trending right now, and the way it's trending towards. It's formed from swing higs, swing lows and support / resistance levels.
3. Wait for market to make a liquidity grab on the higher timeframe liquidity zone.
A liquidity grab is when the marked liquidity zones have a false breakout, which means that it gets broken for a brief amount of time, but then price falls back to it's previous position.
4. Buyside liquidity grabs are "Short" entries and Sellside liquidity grabs are "Long" entries by default.
5. Wait for the market-structure shift in the current timeframe for entry confirmation.
A market-structure shift happens when the current market structure changes, usually when a new swing high / swing low is formed. This indicator uses it as a confirmation for position entry as it gives an insight of the new trend of the market.
6. Place Take-Profit and Stop-Loss levels according to the risk ratio.
This indicator uses "Average True Range" when placing the stop-loss & take-profit levels. Average True Range calculates the average size of a candle and the indicator places the stop-loss level using ATR times the risk setting determined by the user, then places the take-profit level trying to keep a minimum of 1:1 risk-reward ratio.
This indicator follows these steps and inform you step by step by plotting them in your chart.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suit for the ICT's Turtle Soup concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. It's designed for simplyfing a rather complex strategy, helping you to execute it with clean signals. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
MSS Swing Length -> The swing length when finding liquidity zones for market structure-shift detection.
Higher Timeframe -> The higher timeframe to look for liquidity grabs. This timeframe setting must be higher than the current chart's timeframe for the indicator to work.
Breakout Method -> If "Wick" is selected, a bar wick will be enough to confirm a market structure-shift. If "Close" is selected, the bar must close above / below the liquidity zone to confirm a market structure-shift.
Entry Method ->
"Classic" : Works as described on the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
"Adaptive" : When "Adaptive" is selected, the entry conditions may chance depending on the current performance of the indicator. It saves the entry conditions and the performance of the past entries, then for the new entries it checks if it predicted the liquidity grabs correctly with the current setup, if so, continues with the same logic. If not, it changes behaviour to reverse the entries from long / short to short / long.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method -> If "Fixed" is selected, you can adjust the TP / SL ratios from the settings below. If "Dynamic" is selected, the TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm.
Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.

ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit is a comprehensive suite of tools crafted to aid traders in pinpointing crucial trading zones and patterns within the market.
The ICT Immediate Rebalance, although frequently overlooked, emerges as one of ICT's most influential concepts, particularly when considered within a specific context. The toolkit integrates commonly used price action tools to be utilized in conjunction with the Immediate Rebalance patterns, enriching the capacity to discern context for improved trading decisions.
The ICT Immediate Rebalance Toolkit encompasses the following Price Action components:
ICT Immediate Rebalance
Buyside/Sellside Liquidity
Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks
Liquidity Voids
ICT Macros
🔶 USAGE
🔹 ICT Immediate Rebalance
What is an Immediate Rebalance?
Immediate rebalances, a concept taught by ICT, hold significant importance in decision-making. To comprehend the concept of immediate rebalance, it's essential to grasp the notion of the fair value gap. A fair value gap arises from market inefficiencies or imbalances, whereas an immediate rebalance leaves no gap, no inefficiencies, or no imbalances that the price would need to return to.
Rule of Thumb
After an immediate rebalance, the expectation is for two extension candles to follow; otherwise, the immediate rebalance is considered failed. It's important to highlight that both failed and successful immediate rebalances, when considered within a context, are significant signatures in trading.
Immediate rebalances can occur anywhere and in any timeframe.
🔹 Buyside/Sellside Liquidity
In the context of Inner Circle Trader's teachings, liquidity primarily refers to the presence of stop losses or pending orders, that indicate concentrations of buy or sell orders at specific price levels. Institutional traders, like banks and large financial entities, frequently aim for these liquidity levels or pools to accumulate or distribute their positions.
Buyside liquidity denotes a chart level where short sellers typically position their stops, while Sellside liquidity indicates a level where long-biased traders usually place their stops. These zones often serve as support or resistance levels, presenting potential trading opportunities.
The presentation applied here is the multi-timeframe version of our previously published Buyside-Sellside-Liquidity script.
🔹 Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks
Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks hold significant importance in technical analysis and play a crucial role in shaping market behavior.
Order blocks are fundamental elements of price action analysis used by traders to identify key levels in the market where significant buying or selling activity has occurred. These blocks represent areas on a price chart where institutional traders, banks, or large market participants have placed substantial buy or sell orders, leading to a temporary imbalance in supply and demand.
Breaker blocks, also known as liquidity clusters or pools, complement order blocks by identifying zones where liquidity is concentrated on the price chart. These areas, formed from mitigated order blocks, often act as significant barriers to price movement, potentially leading to price stalls or reversals in the future.
🔹 Liquidity Voids
Liquidity voids are sudden price changes when the price jumps from one level to another. Liquidity voids will appear as a single or a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction. These candles typically have large real bodies and very short wicks, suggesting very little disagreement between buyers and sellers.
Here is our previously released Liquidity-Voids script.
🔹 ICT Macros
In the context of ICT's teachings, a macro is a small program or set of instructions that unfolds within an algorithm, which influences price movements in the market. These macros operate at specific times and can be related to price runs from one level to another or certain market behaviors during specific time intervals. They help traders anticipate market movements and potential setups during specific time intervals.
Here is our previously released ICT-Macros script.

Liquidity Grab Zones | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Liquidity Grab Zones Indicator! This indicator finds liquidity grabs in the current ticker and renders buyside & sellside liquidity grab zones. The retests and breakout of the zones are labeled, and you can set up alerts to get notified. For more information, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new Liquidity Grab Zones Indicator :
Renders Buyside & Sellside Liquidity Grab Zones
Retests & Breaks
Inverse Zones After Broken Feature
Alerts For All Features
Customizable Algorithm
Customizable Styles
🚩UNIQUENESS
Liquidity grabs can be useful when determining candles that have executed a lot of market orders, so you can plann your trades accordingly. This indicator lets you customize the pivot length and the wick-body ratio for liquidity grabs, provide retest & breakout labels, with customized styling and alerts.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a zone is plotted.
These zones usually indicate areas of high market interest where price action may reverse or accelerate. Identifying these zones can provide traders with critical levels for entering or exiting trades. A breakout of these zones generally mean strong movements are inbound, while failing breakouts make these zones act like support / resistance zones.
The indicator also reverses the type of the zone after an invalidation (can be turned off from the settings). This feature helps traders identify potential reversals more accurately.
The zone width is set to the area from the wick to the body of the candlestick, which can be seen here :
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Pivot Length -> This setting determines the range of the pivots. This means a candle has to have the highest / lowest wick of the previous X bars and the next X bars to become a high / low pivot.
Wick-Body Ratio -> After a pivot has a false breakout, the wick-body ratio of the latest candle is tested. The resulting ratio must be higher than this setting for it to be considered as a liquidity grab.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Liquidity Grab Zone Invalidation.
Use these customizable settings to fine-tune the indicator according to your trading strategy and preferences.
ICT New Week Opening GapDisplay the Current New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) on your Futures Market charts.
Disclaimer: this indicator is completely built from scratch, which is why not many features are added yet.
This indicator is 100% UNIQUE in the way that the NWOG remains accurately drawn on the chart, regardless of which chart settings are modified (for example, Settlement-as-Close, RTH/ETH, Back-Adjustment, etc.), unlike other NWOG plotting indicators.
Additionally, the NWOG can be plotted on a large variety of timeframes, from the Weekly chart, all the way down to the 1-second chart.
The NWOG is defined as Friday's closing price (e.g., at 4:59pm New York Time for ES1!) and Sunday's opening price (e.g., at 6:00pm New York Time for ES1!) on a new week.
This indicator draws a Box at these levels and extends it out in time to the most recent bar so that it can be visualized how price reacts to and gyrates around these levels.
Basically, the Box that is drawn on the chart by this indicator can be used as dynamic support & resistance levels. The actual price levels are shown at the top-right of the chart in a small table, for anyone wanting to remove the indicator and draw the levels themselves.
Only the current week's opening price and the previous week's closing price will be drawn on the chart.
The indicator settings are only used to change the visuals such as box colors and text colors/size. The actual calculations are performed as mentioned above and cannot be changed by the Style/Settings Input.
Note: it is recommended to toggle ON the " Scale Price Chart Only " chart option if using auto-scaling on charts because TradingView by default will force indicator drawings to display on the chart area even if an NWOG is far away from the current price action.
This is a bare bones indicator (1st version) that will only draw the current NWOG. Future updates will add support for displaying historical NWOGs.

Price Action SuiteThe TRN Price Action Suite incorporates a treasure trove of time and price action concepts. It includes a set of trading tools that, when combined, allow for a more accurate view of the market. This enables traders to find high probability entry points before the market moves to the next liquidation level.
Features of the TRN Price Action Suite:
(Inverse) Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Order Blocks (OB)
FVG and OB with Cumulative Volume Delta
Volume Imbalances
Market Structure
Liquidity levels
Sessions
Kill zones/Opening Range
The indicator helps traders to easily identify favorable market conditions and high probability trade setups. It automatically finds time and price action concepts and displays them in an intuitive way on the chart. One of the highlights is the detection of Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks in connection with Cumulative Volume Delta (approx.). You will not find this connection anywhere else.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
A fair value gap occurs when there are inefficiencies in the market or imbalanced buying and selling pressures. Fair value gaps can become a magnet for the price before continuing in the same direction. Special attention should be paid to FVGs that are supported by support and resistance levels, as these offer a higher probability of success for trades. Additionally, the indicator plots inverse FVG (iFVG). These are FVG that are “closed” by a FVG in the other direction. IFVGs are a strong sign of the market to continue in the direction of the iFVG.
In addition to the FVGs you see on the chart, you can add also FVGs from a higher timeframe including the cumulative buy/sell volume. For this you can set “Timeframe 1” and “Timeframe 2” in the settings to your preferred timeframes. E.g. you trade on a 5-minute chart, and you want to see FVGs from 4 hours and a daily chart, then you set Timeframe 1 to 4 h and to Timeframe 2 to 1 D.
Order Blocks and Volume Imbalances can also be shown from higher timeframes.
Order Blocks (OBs)
Order blocks are areas on the chart where a high concentration of limit orders was found in the past. They can serve as potential support or resistance areas. These represent areas in the market where there is an oversupply (supply) or an excess demand (demand). They are often key zones for potential turning points or continuations of the current trend. A bullish OB, for example, is the last bearish candle before a significant uptrend.
FVGs and OBs with Cumulative Volume Delta
The TRN Price Action Suite can show FVGs and OBs with the corresponding Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD). It is a metric to analyze market dynamics by tracking the net difference between buying and selling volumes over a specific timeframe. It is used to determine the strength of the FVG/OB. The FVG/OB includes two bars on the left side, indicating the cumulative buy volume in green as well es the cumulative sell volume in red. At the right side of the FVG/OB box the ratio of the cumulative buy/sell volume is displayed. A high ratio over 1, for example 1.5, indicates a lot of buying pressure. On the hand, a ratio far below 1, for example 0.66, indicates a lot of selling pressure.
Volume Imbalances (VIBs)
Volume Imbalances indicate a price gap from the previous close, but unlike gaps, there is no absence of trading activity within a specific price range. Bullish VIs have opening and closing prices above the previous close, with overlap between the current low and previous high. Bearish VIs are vice versa.
Market Structure
The market structure represents the dominant trend in the market. It is based on swing highs and lows. For instance, if the price makes higher highs (HH) and higher lows (HL) the market structure represents an uptrend. Vice versa if price makes lower lows (LL) and lower highs (LH) the market trend is down.
If the market structure is up, traders can enter positions in a pullback. For this, a trader could use a FVG or an OB as an entry condition.
Market Structure Shift (MSS) (Change of Character (ChoCh))
A market structure shift occurs when the market transitions from one dominant trend to a different one, often signaling a potential change in the underlying market dynamics. A MSS signals the start of a new trend. It signals the change from an uptrend to a down trend and vice versa. Therefore, it is sometimes called change of character (ChoCh). A valid MSS should ideally occur in a strong supply or demand zone. This indicates that the market may be approaching a trend reversal or consolidation.
Break of Structure (BOS)
A break of structure happens when the market breaks out of its established trading range or pattern. The market continues its dominant trend, indicated by the last MSS.
In an uptrend, for example, each time the price breaks through a new high, a "bullish BOS" is formed. This indicates that the market can overcome previous resistance levels and continue to rise.
Levels
One core concept in trading is that price flows to areas of liquidity. Natural liquidity areas are the current day open, high, low (CDO, CDH, CDL) or the previous day high, low, close (PDH, PDL, PDC). The same is true for the current week (CWO, CWH, CWL) and the previous week (PWH, PWL, PWC).
Pay special attention in case some of these levels are close together. Then these levels serve like a magnet for the price. The TRN Price Action Suite indicator can cluster these levels fully automatically together to give the trader the flexibility to focus solely on the trading part.
Sessions
Sessions are the trading hours during which the banks are actively trading. The three main trading sessions:
Asia: Most of the volume from the Asian players are handled within this session.
London: This is where the European players are most active.
New York: In the New York session all the USA players are active as well as all the other American players. Furthermore, a lot of global players are active in this session as well.
Killzones
A kill zone in trading refers to a specific time period during the trading day when the market experiences increased volatility and liquidity. It is an opportunity for traders to capitalize on potential price movements and generate profits. There are several different killzones during the day.
There are three different types of killzones:
Indices/Futures: This one is suitable if you trade products like the ES, NQ, FDAX, CL or Stocks, Options.
Forex: If you trade Forex this setting will mark the most liquid periods of the day.
Opening Range: In case you trade the opening range of the sessions, use this setting.

ICT Silver Bullet | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Silver Bullet Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT's "Silver Bullet" strategy. The strategy has 5 steps for execution and works best in 1-5 min timeframes. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Silver Bullet Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Silver Bullet Strategy
Customizable Execution Settings
2 NY Sessions & London Session
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
ICT's Silver Bullet strategy has 5 steps :
1. Mark your market sessions open (This indicator has 3 -> NY 10-11, NY 14-15, LDN 03-04)
2. Mark the swing liquidity points
3. Wait for market to take down one liquidity side
4. Look for a market structure-shift for reversals
5. Wait for a FVG for execution
This indicator follows these steps and inform you step by step by plotting them in your chart. You can switch execution types between FVG and MSS.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suit for the ICT's Silver Bullet concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. It's designed for simplyfing a rather complex strategy, helping you to execute it with clean signals. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Execution Type -> FVG execution type will require a FVG to take an entry, while the MSS setting will take an entry as soon as it detects a market structure-shift.
MSS Swing Length -> The swing length when finding liquidity zones for market structure-shift detection.
Breakout Method -> If "Wick" is selected, a bar wick will be enough to confirm a market structure-shift. If "Close" is selected, the bar must close above / below the liquidity zone to confirm a market structure-shift.
FVG Detection -> "Same Type" means that all 3 bars that formed the FVG should be the same type. (Bullish / Bearish). "All" means that bar types may vary between bullish / bearish.
FVG Detection Sensitivity -> You can turn this setting on and off. If it's off, any 3 consecutive bullish / bearish bars will be calculated as FVGs. If it's on, the size of FVGs will be filtered by the selected sensitivity. Lower settings mean less but larger FVGs.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method -> If "Fixed" is selected, you can adjust the TP / SL ratios from the settings below. If "Dynamic" is selected, the TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm.
Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails.
Close Position @ Session End -> If this setting is enabled, the current position (if any) will be closed at the beginning of a new session, regardless if it hit the TP / SL zone. If it's off, the position will be open until it hits a TP / SL zone.

🔹 Overlay Feature: Plots directly on the price chart for seamless integration and analysis.
🌟 Quick Guide to Using the Volumetric Fair Value Gaps Indicator:
🛠 Add the Indicator: Add the indicator to favourites and set it up with your desired settings.
📊 Market Analysis: Watch for the appearance of colored boxes (blue for bearish, gray for bullish) which represent the fair value gaps. These are high-probability areas for reversals or continuations. FVGs with higher volume are implied to induce a stronger reaction on price.
🔔 Alerts: Set up alerts to notify you when new gaps are detected, ensuring you never miss out on potential trades!
🛠 How It Works:
The Volumetric Fair Value Gaps (VFVG) indicator identifies significant price gaps that are not just based on price action but are also substantiated by volume, which are often overlooked in typical analyses. It operates by comparing the current candle’s price range against historical averages and is calculated over a user-defined period, displayed with volume for further insights. For a gap to be recognized as significant (either bullish or bearish), it must exceed a certain size relative to these averages, which can be adjusted for sensitivity using the provided settings. Bullish gaps are identified when the current low is higher than the second previous high after surpassing the threshold, and bearish gaps are marked when the current high is below the second previous low, similarly surpassing the threshold. This dual-confirmation (volume and price deviation) approach minimizes false signals and enhances the reliability of identified gaps.
Maximize your trading strategy with the VFVG Indicator by AlgoAlpha and turn those gaps into opportunities! 🌈✨
Smart Money Setup 05 [TradingFinder] Minor OB & Trend Proof🔵 Introduction
The "Smart Money Concept" transcends the realm of mere technical trading strategies to embody a comprehensive philosophy on the dynamics of market operations. It posits that key market participants engage in price manipulation, thereby complicating the trading landscape for smaller, retail traders.
Under this doctrine, retail traders are advised to tailor their strategies in alignment with the maneuvers of "Smart Money" - essentially, the capital operated by market makers.
To this end, one should endeavor to mirror the trading patterns of these influential market participants, who are adept at navigating through the nuances of supply, demand, and overall market structure. As a proponent of Smart Money trading, these elements are pivotal in your decision-making process for trade entries.
🟣 Key Insights
The core principle of this strategy hinges on misleading other traders. A sudden market movement against the prevailing trend that results in the formation of either a lower low or a higher high, followed by a pullback where a divergence pattern emerges, sets the stage.
Subsequently, the market may form another lower low or higher high. Traders, persuaded that the market will continue along the trajectory of the new movement, are caught off-guard when the price abruptly reverses direction. Following a "Stop Hunt" of the traders' open positions, the market resumes its initial trend.
To grasp the essence of this setup, observe the following illustrations.
"Bullish Setup" :
"Bearish Setup" :
🔵 How to Use
The setups can be customized based on the desired formation period. This adjustment can be made through the indicator's price setting options, where the default period is set at 2.
Upon configuring your preferred period, the signals become actionable. Once a setup forms, the subsequent step involves waiting for the price to reach the "Order Block".
