Session LiquidityThe “Session Liquidity” TradingView indicator by Infinity Trading creates dynamic horizontal lines at the high and low points of a specified time span within the trading day. This indicator gives the user control of three separate time spans so the user can dynamically see the highs and lows of their favorite daily time spans.
Purpose
This indicator is similar to my TradingView indicator “Futures Exchange Sessions 3.0”. In that indicator the user gets control of dynamic price boxes. For me, these boxes made it difficult to spot ICT’s Orderblocks. So instead of boxes I made independently controllable lines and now I can spot ICT Orderblocks and easily identify Liquidity Pools.
Inputs and Style
Everything about the three dynamic lines can but independently configured. Start & End Times, Line Color, Line Style, Line Width, Text Characters, Text Size, Text Color can all be adjusted. The high and low lines as well as their text labels can be individually toggled on or off for maximum control.
Timezone
All of the start and end times are in EST. Additionally, each time span line needs a specific start of each day. This is controlled by a setting called “Line Start Day Timezone” where the user sets a timezone that corresponds with the start time. In general if a timespan resides within a particular Session pick the corresponding timezone. If the users line fits in the Asian Session then choose Asia/Shanghai. If the line is within the London Session then choose Europe/London. And the same goes for the New York Session.
Special Notes
If the Line Start Time is within one candle of the Start Day Timezone in the Settings, then the line/box won’t display. So choose the previous timezone
Lines only display when the timeframe is <= 30 minute

LIQUIDATION [CFI]EN description
The indicator determines signs of liquidations of futures contracts. It works according to the author's algorithm based on: prices, volumes, levels and candlestick analysis.
The larger the diamond, the greater the volume of potential liquidations of longs or shorts was on a particular candle. There are 5 sizes of diamonds: small, conditionally equal to 1x, medium - 3x, large - 5x, huge - 15x, huge - 50x. That is, on the largest diamond, the volume of liquidations is 50 times greater than on the smallest one (namely, the volume, not to be confused with shoulders).
The price of the location of diamonds is equal to the maximum (for short liquidations) price for a particular pair, or the minimum (for long liquidations). Thus, you can immediately see to what marks the price reached on different pairs and exchanges
The indicator displays new liquidations only after the candle closes. It cannot redraw data. Diamonds with a green tint - liquidation of long contracts, with a red tint - liquidation of short contracts.
The indicator simultaneously monitors 7 pairs on 5 exchanges:
BINANCE BTC/ETH BTCUSDTPERP
BINANCE BTC/ETH BTCBUSDPERP
BYBIT BTC/ETH BTCUSD.P
BYBIT BTC/ETH BTCUSDT.P
KRAKEN BTC/ETH BTCUSDTPERP
HUOBI BTC/ETH BTCUSDT.P
OKEX BTC/ETH BTCUSD.P
As you know, it is impossible to get reliable data about the real liquidations of traders, so this script only displays the signs of these liquidations. As you can see, the price often reverses after large diamonds, so I think that the script turned out to be working and useful. The indicator is best used when trading sideways, when there is accumulation or distribution - in such situations, after collecting liquidations, the price almost always reverses and goes to collect liquidations from the opposite side
RU описание
Индикатор определяет признаки ликвидаций фьючерсных контрактов. Работает по авторскому алгоритму в основе которого лежат: цены, объёмы, уровни и свечной анализ.
Чем больше ромбик - тем больший объём потенциальных ликвидаций лонгов или шортов был на конкретной свече. Бывает 5 размеров ромбиков: маленький, условно равен 1х, средний - 3х, большой - 5х, огромный - 15х, огроменный - 50х. То есть на самом большом ромбе в 50 раз больше объём ликвидаций, чем на самом маленьком (именно объём, не путать с плечами).
Цена расположения ромбиков равна максимальной (для ликвидаций шортов) цене для конкретной пары, или минимальной (для ликвидаций лонгов). Таким образом сразу видно, до каких отметок доходила цена на разных парах и биржах
Индикатор отображает новые ликвидации только после закрытия свечи. Перерисовывать данные он не может. Ромбики с зелёным оттенком - ликвидации лонг контрактов, с красным оттенком - ликвидации шорт контрактов.
Индикатор одновременно отслеживает 7 пар на 5 биржах:
BINANCE BTC/ETH BTCUSDTPERP
BINANCE BTC/ETH BTCBUSDPERP
BYBIT BTC/ETH BTCUSD.P
BYBIT BTC/ETH BTCUSDT.P
KRAKEN BTC/ETH BTCUSDTPERP
HUOBI BTC/ETH BTCUSDT.P
OKEX BTC/ETH BTCUSD.P
Как вы знаете, нельзя получить достоверные данные о настоящих ликвидациях трейдеров, поэтому этот скрипт лишь отображает признаки этих ликвидаций. Как видите, часто цена разворачивается после крупных ромбиков, поэтому я считаю, что скрипт получился рабочим и полезным. Индикатор лучше всего применять при торговле в боковике, когда идёт накопление или распределение - в таких ситуациях почти всегда после сбора ликвидаций цена разворачивается и идёт собирать ликвидации с противоположной стороны
Liquidity Raids and Sweeps by TexmoonbeamLiquidity is a vital concept in trading. It gives us an indication of where buy / sell orders are in the market, and the direction price is likely to move once this liquidity has been taken.
The purpose of this indicator is to show you when and where there has been a 'raid' or 'sweep' of this liquidity, meaning a reversal might occur.
The indicator does this by looking for candle wicks, that go beyond a previous pivot high or low.
Settings:
Timeframe – This settings changes the timeframe that the indicator looks for raids/sweeps. Higher timeframes generally mean stronger moves.
Left bars – the number of bars gap higher/lower to the left of a pivot low/high. A higher number means the high or low was formed from a stronger move.
Right bars – the number of bars gap higher/lower to the right of a pivot low/high. A higher number means the high or low started a stronger move.
Max Gap – the maximum number of candles between a raid or sweep. Reduce this number on higher time frames if there are memory errors.
Min Gap – the minimum number of candles between a raid or sweep.
Alerts Wait For Close – If ticked, this means an alert will not be triggered by the current candle wick, overlapping a previous, until the close of that candle. Unticked you will be alerted as soon as the current candle crosses a previous high/low, though it might close far beyond that point and not actually turn out to be a raid/sweep.
Buy Side/Sell Side – line style and colour preferences for buy and sell side.
Strategy:
As seen in the example chart, the raid/sweep of liquidity, where only a wick reaches beyond a previous high or low, can be followed by a reversal of direction, often to seek other liquidity targets. This indicator could provide an opportunity to enter a trade at this point and the alert feature means you will be able to set up custom alerts on multiple charts or timeframes.
You should use other confluence and a lower time frame confirmation after a raid/sweep, to identify your entry, stop loss and targets. Familiarity with liquidity and smart money concepts are recommended.
ICT 2022 Mentorship Model [TFO]An attempt at programming the logic from the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) 2022 Mentorship Model. It's not perfect by any means, and NOT intended as a substitute for learning the model itself. I just wanted to share what I’ve been able to make thus far. PLEASE read this description thoroughly before reaching out with questions.
How it works, as of the initial release (bullish example):
When major Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) is taken, this script will start looking for displacement through a recent swing high, marking a potential Market Structure Shift (MSS)
From the bar that created the MSS, displacement is deemed valid if the range of that bar is greater than the standard deviation of recent price history, multiplied by the “Displacement Strength” parameter. Valid displacement also requires that a Fair Value Gap (FVG) was created
Once the above conditions are met, the script will assume we are now seeking Buy Side Liquidity (BSL), and will continue to look for long entries in an FVG after subsequent displacement through swing highs. *This script will keep looking for long entries until price takes out BSL*
Similarly, if price took out BSL and displaced through a swing low, the script will only look for short entries in an FVG until an SSL pivot is reached (alerts can be configured to show these potential entries)
Settings:
Show Structure Breaks: show breaks of structure on the current timeframe
Show Liquidity Taken: show when major liquidity has been traded through
Show Liquidity Pivots: show all pivots that are being considered as liquidity
Structure Pivot Strength: determines how strong a local high/low must be for structural pivots on the current timeframe
Liquidity Multiplier: this number, multiplied by Structure Pivot Strength, will determine the pivot strength used to find valid liquidity, which should always be greater than the Structure Pivot Strength
BOS Type: “Close” will only count structure breaks when price closes through a prior pivot, whereas “Wick” will include structure breaks even if price only wicks through the prior pivot
Show Displacement: show bar coloring for valid displacement through a swing high/low
Show Displacement FVG: show FVGs that results from valid displacement
Displacement Type: use “Open to Close” to look for displacement using only the body of a candle, or “High to Low” to use the candle’s entire price range
Displacement Strength: higher values will look for more significant displacement candles, and vice versa
Max Bars to Extend FVG: if an FVG has not been overwritten or invalidated, it will extend to the right for a maximum of this many bars
I recommend lowering the values for Structure Pivot Strength and Liquidity Multiplier for larger chart timeframes, and increasing the values for smaller timeframes. I prefer keeping the displacement strength to >= 3, which would be 3 times the standard deviation of recent price history.
ICT SM Trades (liquidity find & grab, MSS, FVG, killzones)Indicator looks for ICT & Smart Money trades on any timeframe. These types of trades reveal how the big institutions, banks and hedge funds trade with big money. If they want their very big positions to be filled they need to find areas in chart where the majority of the money is sitting. Where is it? Where is the majority of orders placed? Right below supports or right above resistance, these orders are stoplosses or stop orders. So they need to push the price to these areas, take all the available stoplosses and trigger all the available stop orders in order to fill their positions and then push the price to the opposite side to make profit (and retail to lose).
Indicator looks for support or resistance (S/R) areas which are represented by dotted lines. This S/R areas are created by minimum of 2 pivot high/low (H/L). Every pivot H/L that creates the S/R area is marked with diamond label. This S/R area is called liquidity. After liquidity is created, indicator looks for liquidity grab (mostly represented by fast spike to this area - it is labeled with x-cross) and then price should go fast to the opposite side of the created structure. Indicator considers as a created structure everything that was created on the other side of the candles from the oldest pivot H/L which creates particular liquidity. For example, if liquidity is created with 3 pivot highs, indicator looks at the oldest pivot high and from there it is looking for the lowest low. Under this lowest low is dashed line which means that this level should be broken with closed candle. This action is called market structure shift (MSS), when the price shifted very fast from highs to lows. After MSS, when the price went fast to one direction, there were some imbalances in prices, in our example selling pressure was a lot bigger than buying pressure and there were created some long untested bearish candles. This untested areas in candles are called imbalances or gaps of fair value gaps (FVG). These are labeled with rectangles. It is expected that these gaps will be tested in near future to "balance the market".
We can put limit orders into these gaps and await some retracement after MSS to open our positions and after the positions are opened we can expect trend continuation in the direction where market structure shift was made (away from liquidity grab). So stoplosses can be placed above/below liquidity grab candle (marked with x-cross).
In settings of the indicator you can set whether only long or only short trades will be shown. Long trades are green and short trades are red. You can set if fair value gaps will be shown as well. The last thing in settings is session. You can set custom session which will be shown as background color on your chart.
Liquidation Levels v2 [LG]The main premise of this indicator is to identify when large cryptocurrency futures positions are opened, and then plot the liquidation levels of those positions. Market makers know this data and tend to push price towards these levels, as there is guaranteed liquidity at or approaching those levels.
Remember, we want to buy when others are forced to sell, not when they want to sell, and vice versa. Whales want to position, but need to do so in areas of larger liquidity, as they want to minimize slippage and detection as much as possible.
This indicator is very useful during times of chop, when the market is taking liquidity anywhere it exists as whales are forcing retail players out of their positions.
This indicator will also plot where positions with a total value in excess of the user-defined threshold are opened or closed, so you are able to better gauge how market participants are reacting to price levels.
Commonly used leverage levels are 100x, 50x, and 25x, but can be adjusted by the user depending on what they are noticing is attracting price levels.
This indicator is recommended for use on the 1 minute chart of the Binance BTCUSD perpetual contract pair. This will allow for as much precision as possible for the majority of users. Note: The only supported coin at this point is BTC - other coins to follow soon.
SUMMARY
1) View liquidation levels of large positions opened
2) View exact moments where large positions are opened or closed
3) Gauge available liquidity to upside or downside to better assist in determining longer term reversal points
COMING SOON
1) Additional coins
2) VPVR inspired vertical histogram or other visualization tool summarizing total available liquidity at specific price level
3) Total delta of available long and short liquidity
4) Push notifications when price takes liquidity
5) Requests as outlined in the comments
This indicator was inspired by the Hyblock Capital liquidation levels and offers an improvement upon the popular existing Liquidation Levels indicator by mlapplications.
Volume CVD and Open Interest HeatmapTaking Volume and Open Interest data to the next level of visualization I created a 'heatmap'. The indicator uses a colour gradient and plots boxes from the source candle to the current candle with one of the following data sources:
- Volume - the total volume of transactions, buys and sells
- Up Volume - the total volume from buys only
- Down Volume - the total volume from sells only
- Up/Down Volume (Net) - the difference in the Buy Volume and Sell Volume
- Cumulative Delta - the sum of the up/down volume for the previous 14 bars
- Cumulative Delta EMA - a smoothed average of the sum of the up/down volume for the previous 14 bars, over a 14 period EMA
- Open Interest - a user defined ticker, whose value is added to the plot, while this is designed to be used with Open Interest tickers, you can actually choose any ticker you want, perhaps you want to see DXY while charting Bitcoin!
You can define the lookback period, though you should make sure your timeframe for volume source data, is high enough to accommodate the lookback. TradingView will only fetch 5000 candles worth of data, so at 1 min volume data, you can only lookback 83 hours.
While similar, Volume and Open Interest are not the same. To me the simplest explanation is Volume shows the trades that have been executed and the buy/sell direction, while Open Interest shows the value of open trades that are yet to be completed.
Volume shows strength, sentiment and volatility .
Open Interest does not show direction, but does indicate momentum and liquidity in the market.
With this novel way of visualizing these, you can also now determine where all that liquidity and positions came from and therefore might have resting liquidity below.

Rolling HTF Liquidity Levels [CHE]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays a Rolling HTF Liquidity Levels . Contrary to HTF Liquidity Levels indicators which use a fix time segment, Rolling HTF Liquidity Levels calculates using a moving window defined by a time period (not a simple number of bars), so it shows better results.
This indicator is inspired by
The indicator introduces a new representation of the previous rolling time frame highs & lows (DWM HL) with a focus on untapped levels.
█ CONCEPTS
Untapped Levels
It is popularly known that the liquidity is located behind swing points or beyond higher time frames highs/lows.
Rolling HTF Liquidity Levels uses a moving window, it does not exhibit the static of the HTF Liquidity Levels plots.
█ HOW TO USE IT
Load the indicator on an active chart (see the Help Center if you don't know how).
Time period
By default, the script uses an auto-stepping mechanism to adjust the time period of its moving window to the chart's timeframe. The following table shows chart timeframes and the corresponding time period used by the script. When the chart's timeframe is less than or equal to the timeframe in the first column, the second column's time period is used to calculate the Rolling HTF Liquidity Levels:
Chart Time
timeframe period
1min 🠆 1H
5min 🠆 4H
1H 🠆 1D
4H 🠆 3D
12H 🠆 1W
1D 🠆 1M
1W 🠆 3M
By default, the time period currently used is displayed in the lower-right corner of the chart. The script's inputs allow you to hide the display or change its size and location.
This indicator should make trading easier and improve analysis. Nothing is worse than indicators that give confusingly different signals.
I hope you enjoy my new ideas
best regards

SFC Smart Money Manipulation - Liquidity, StructureThis indicator shows very important information about the market.
Features:
- Market structure
- Important Ranges
- Liquidity
- Trading session
- Daily Checklist
Market structure
Market structure is the behaviour, condition, and current flow of the market. It highlights support and resistance levels, swing highs, and swing lows. A trend is simply a consistent direction of price movement over time. Market structure can tell you if the market is trending or not.
Market structure is a lagging indicator, because Highs and Lows must to be created in order to define the structure properly. The structure provide the most important information about the market.
Market structure can provide early signals about the trend.
- If the structure continues to break in the same direction, it means that the trend is healthy and will continue (BoS).
- If the structure break in the opposite direction, means that the trend may reverse or pause for a while (CHoCH).
Important ranges
- Asia Range - it is important intraday range and can provide early information if the day will be bullish or bearish.
- Most recent High/Low - determine the last swing
- Premium/ Discount zone with Fibonacci levels - the institutions always want to buy in discount and sell in premium.
Liquidity
Areas where a lot of traders get into the market and theirs stop losses are obvious. So the banks will manipulate the price to clear these stop losses, before price go in real direction. The banks will always hunt the liquidity.
The major liquidity is:
- Doji candle - displayed
- Double/Triple Highs or Lows - displayed
- Fair value gaps - displayed
- Imbalances - displayed
- Trend lines
- Big wicks
Trading Sessions
Price and Time theory is very significant in Smart Money Concept. The banks do not just place orders chaotically. They place it in specific time.
The indicator shows the Asia, London and New York intraday sessions and the kill zones.
Kill Zone - most manipulated time in the day, where institutions try to wipe out the retail traders and establish the true move.
Daily Checklist
Simple, but very useful checklist. It shows the most important daily steps in order qualitative analysis to be created.
How to use
1) Use the swing highs and lows and check the current structure.
2) Look where is the major liquidity. By default orange colour. When liquidity is retested from the price ,it change the colour from orange to gray. Retested liquidity is no more significant for the banks.
3) Use the important ranges to define the pullbacks or reversals or trading ranges.
4) Use the trading sessions and kill zones to place orders in the right time.
5) Use the "daily checklist" every day - step by step. It helps trader to analyse the current market.
Settings
-Show pivots, Pivot confirmation candles, Equal Highs/Lows sensitivity
-Show structures breaks
-Show most recent high/low
-Show Asia range
-Show premium/discount zone with Fibonacci levels
-Show liquidity, Colour of liquidity, Color of retested liquidity, Doji settings
-Show Trading sessions
-Show daily checklist
Automatic Closest FVG with BPRFair Value Gaps are a hugely popular concept and because of that there are numerous indicators available. This one however, was designed to automate the process of actually using them in trading.
Designed with lower time frame entries in mind (though will work on HTF just as well), this indicator automatically draws the closest, non-mitigated FVG, to the current price, cutting out the work of looking for what FVG is relevant.
The indicator also has an option to show when the current nearest pair of FVGs form a BPR or 'balanced price range'.
There are various option for what counts as mitigation, including no mitigation at all, and when mitigated an FVG is no longer considered for proximity searching.
SPX Fair Value Bands V2An updated version of the SPX Fair Value Bands script from dharmatech and based on the net liquidity concept by MaxJAnderson .
Now with full customization of parameters through the settings (Dialog Box) and allowing the options to the use of
1) Standard Bands based on Offsets of the Fair Value
2) Bollinger Bands
3) Keltner Channels
to better capture buy/sell areas rather than relying on noisy unreliably (and unevenly) updated data from the Treasury/Fed.
==================================
Net Liquidity's importance in the new post-COVID QE to QT regime as described MaxJAnderson
----------------
" In past cycles, size of Fed's balance sheet changed a lot, while TGA and RRP changed relatively little. So size of balance sheet roughly equated Net Liquidity.
(The Treasury General Account) TGA and (Reverse Repo) RRP didn't matter. They were rounding errors by comparison.
But starting in 2020, relative changes in TGA and RRP have been THREE TIMES LARGER than the change in size of the Fed's balance sheet. As result, changes in TGA and RRP have taken over as the primary drivers Net Liquidity.
This is new, and changes the game significantly. Again - the size of the Fed's balance sheet doesn't matter.
What matters is the portion of it that's available to circulate in the economy (Net Liquidity).
And ever since 2020, the Treasury and Reverse Repo have become what controls that. Not the size of Fed's balance sheet.
----------------
The idea that follows is simple,short when $SPX reaches extreme levels of overvaluation, and close out when SPX returns to being undervalued. Here's the formulas I currently use to determine fair value:
Fair Value = (Fed Bal Sheet - TGA - RRP)/1.1 - 1625
And here's the trading rules I currently follow:
Short when diff of $SPX - Fair Value > 350
Close when diff of $SPX - Fair Value < 150
When one of these rules is triggered upon market close on a given day, trades are entered at open of the following day "
Fed Net Liquidity Indicator (24-Oct-2022 update)This indicator is an implementation of the USD Liquidity Index originally proposed by Arthur Hayes based on the initial implementation of jlb05013, kudos to him!
I have incorporated subsequent additions (Standing Repo Facility and Central Bank Liquidity Swaps lines) and dealt with some recent changes in reporting units from TradingView.
This is a macro indicator that aims at tracking how much USD liquidity is available to chase financial assets:
- When the FED is expanding liquidity, financial asset prices tend to increase
- When the FED is contracting liquidity, financial asset prices tend to decrease
Here is the current calculation:
Net Liquidity =
(+) The Fed’s Balance Sheet (FRED:WALCL)
(-) NY Fed Total Amount of Accepted Reverse Repo Bids (FRED:RRPONTTLD)
(-) US Treasury General Account Balance Held at NY Fed (FRED:WTREGEN)
(+) NY Fed - Standing Repo Facility (FRED:RPONTSYD)
(+) NY Fed - Central Bank Liquidity Swaps (FRED:SWPT)
Fed Net Liquidity Indicator v2Updated script for jlb05013's original Fed Net Liquidity Indicator. TradingView was bringing in the FRED data in different units than they used to. This code fixes it.
This indicator aims to present a "Net Liquidity" indicator comprised of the Fed Balance sheet , less the TGA account and Overnight Reverse REPO agreements.
Net Liquidity = Fed Balance Sheet - ( TGA + Reverse REPO)
This is an overlay that can be added to stock or other charts (like SPY ) to see how the market may appear correlated to Net Liquidity - injection of liquidity into the markets.
This was hypothesized by Max Anderson, this is just a script realizing that posting.
New updates include a resolution feature, and an option to offset backwards by 2 days per original intent.
Liquidity RaidsA raid/sweep occurs when price takes out a previous high/low i.e., price sweeps a level, grabs liquidity and reverses. When this occurs in higher time frames (HTF) like 1h, 4h, daily, etc., there's a greater chance for minor/major reversal/pullback in lower time frames (LTF). For clarification, this is not my concept - ICT students and price action traders call it "liquidity grab", some call it "stop hunt", some call it "evil market maker", etc. There are some indicators which plot this already, but none of them have what I need (multi-timeframe support and filtering swing points).
Typically, we look for raids in HTF, which is set to the timeframe parameter of the indicator. Then, we go into LTF for execution, and we'll see HTF raids plotted there (which greatly eases backtesting and execution). We can also check "filter swing points" to only show raids of swing points (3-candle pattern).
The above chart shows this indicator in action (1m chart showing raids from 15m with swing point filter enabled).
This indicator also supports setting alerts for raids.
Sonarlab - Trendline Liquidity Indicator**This is not a normal Trend Line Indicator**
Most of the concepts we get thought online are to good to be true. Buy and sell off the touch of the trend line and you will be winning! You probably find out already that this ain't the way to trade. Trend lines mostly gets broken and you will be taken out.
he reason behind this is that the trend lines sparks the interests of Institutions. They use those area's to stop people out and use them as fuel for their positions: Liquidity.
TLL: Trend Line Liquidity
Lets show you an example on how to use these TLL markings 👇
In this example above we can see a beautiful example of the TLL indicator mapping out the TLL. The Imbalance Indicator shows us with the BPR (balanced price range) there is a sign of going short. The other confluence we can add is the TLL, which price likes to clear in these situations.
In this other example we also see two TLL resting on top. We see that price tried to break the SL (swing low), but the fake out detection showed us this was a grab on liquidity. After that we can see that on the LTF we get a displacement and we can assume that price is going to target the TLL.
Another example where price cleared the TLL and used is a targets.
This indicator will map the Trend Line Liquidity for you, so you are more aware of the liquidity that is resting around you. The Indicator has the following inputs:
Sensitivity A lower sensitivity create smaller trend lines, where a higher sensitivity creates bigger trend lines.
Display limit : The amount of lines you want the indicator to display
Line type/ text size (styling options)
Liquidity Heatmap (Nephew_Sam_)Liquidity Heatmap
This indicator plots a heatmap of resting liquidity above and below swing lows and multiple timeframes
The darker the color is or the larger the zone is, the more liquidity is lying there. If you think there are too many zones, you can increase the timeframes in the settings or just disable it.
Liquidity simply means orders such as stoplosses, buy/sell stops.
Disclaimer: You are free to use this code but your should be open source too
Liquidity Pools (Nephew_Sam_)This indicator makes use of Pivot Points to identify liquidity pools. This simply means, highs and lows that the price should eventually take out (go towards) before reacting.
In this current version (v1), I implemented multi timeframe pivot points, each with a custom line style and color.
The x left/right bars are used to identify swing points, the number provided will find the highest/lowest candle in the provided left/right bars.
Upcoming
In the next update(s) we will add more features like - identifying relative highs/lows, closest liquidity pools, extending lines, adding labels etc
USD Liquidity Conditions Index Swing Stock Strategy Original credits goes to @ElDoggo22 www.tradingview.com
I looked in the post created by him, of USD liquidity and I have noticed that if you are going to apply a percentile top and bottom to it, can become an interesting swing strategy for US Stocks.
So in this case I decided to create a 99th percentile for top and 4th percentile for bot with a big length, preferably 100+ candles, for this example i took 150.
Rules for entry :
Long : either bot or top lines are ascending
We exit long either the top line is descending, or we have sudden cross of the moving average with both top and bot within the same candle
Short: we enter short when we have a sudden cross down of the moving average with both top and bot within the same candle
We exit short when we have a cross over of the moving average with both top and bot within the same candle ( or we have a long entry condition)
If there are qny questions, please let me know !
Candle Wick Patterns Alerts & Liquidity TargetsCandle wicks provide incredibly useful confluence and confirmation of price action and technical analysis.
Quite simply a wick is formed by price being moved to an extreme by one side, then price being pushed back by the other side.
This can show increased pressure by one side, reduced or increased momentum, or exhaustion by another side.
This indicator while simple, is extremely powerful and versatile and can be set up to recognize numerous types of candle wick and therefore suit numerous trading styles.
The settings as to how wicks are highlighted are:
- Timeframe - view wicks on a higher timeframe while trading on a lower timeframe
- Minimum Wick to Body Ratio - increasing this value will look for wicks who are at least n times larger than the candle body. The most obvious examples here are Doji's - hammer, gravestone, dragonfly, etc. These can indicate trend reversals, indecision and changing momentum.
- Minimum Candle Body as percent of price - this value makes sure that any wick highlighted, belongs to a candle with a body that is at least n% of the price. A higher value is likely to show price momentum is stronger in a particular direction, good for confirming a trend.
- Minimum Candle Wick as percent of price - similar to candle bodies, this value will make sure the candle wick is at least n% of the price. This will identify large fluctuations in price, and if you are familiar with smart money concepts, an increasingly popular strategy is to target 50% of the wick being filled (liquidity).
- Show half fill level of wick - As above, this can provide a good target, which price will be drawn to, depending on the wick.
Finally, the indicator can be used to create alerts when a new wick that meets your settings criteria, is formed.
And don't forget you can add the indicator multiple times, with different settings to cover multiple scenarios and timeframes!
FVG Madness [JoseMetal]============
ENGLISH
============
- Description:
FVG (Fair Value Gap) / imbalances are inefficiencies in the price action generated by violent prices changes, the market is supposed to try to fill or at least retest these later on.
This is just one of the "Smart Money Concepts" or "Institutional trading", and there are different strategies to trade them.
Some use them as "price magnets", but in my case I use them to let orders placed on the "entry" line and take profit on the "exit" line, for both LONG or SHORT.
Others use them as reversal points (50% of the FVG), that's why I added a 50% line to each FVG, I want to make it usable for every single strategy related to FVGs.
Take your time to back test, study, and pick the best strategy for you as you'd do with any other indicator.
- Visual:
So like a "generic" FVG indicator this one also prints the FVGs, colors are customizable for both, bullish and bearish FVGs.
When a FVG is "touched" but not "filled" it changes color, which is also customizable.
As I said I use them as entry and take profit, so I added 3 lines, an entry line, midline and exit line, all have custom colors for both "untouched" and "touched" FVGs for better visualization.
- Customization:
All colors are customizable for both "untouched" and "touched" FVGs as well as their lines as well as the line style (so you can have dashed entry and exit for example but dotted midline, full customization).
You can pick to auto-delete a FVG if not filled completely but a percentage.
Entry and exit lines can be placed based on a percentage too.
Boxes for the FVGs can be extended or not.
There's an ATR (Average True Ratio) filter to ignore (don't plot) small FVGs which would only mess the chart, is custom, but default value is recommended.
- Usage and recommendations:
FVGs are supposed to work on any timeframes, i've seen traders using my strategy (placer a STOP LIMIT on the entry line and take profit on the exit line) even on 1 minute, however, if you have several FVGs you can aim to open a single position and take partial profit on each FVG.
Finally, on my back test i've seen that on 4H+ timeframes a lot of FVGs are only filled up to 50% as one of the mentioned strategies so make sure to move your stop to break even on that point or even close half or the position, just a recommendation to avoid absurd loses.
Enjoy!

- Descripción:
Los FVG (Fair Value Gap) / imbalances son ineficiencias en la acción del precio generadas por cambios violentos en el mismo, se supone que el mercado trata de llenarlos o al menos volver a testearlos más tarde.
Éste es uno de los "Smart Money Concepts" o "Trading Institucional", y hay diferentes estrategias para operar con ellos.
Algunos los utilizan como "imanes del precio", pero en mi caso los utilizo para que las órdenes se coloquen en la línea de "entrada" y tomen ganancias en la línea de "salida", tanto para LONG como para SHORT.
Otros los usan como puntos de reversión (50% del FVG), por eso añadí una línea del 50% a cada FVG, quiero que sea utilizable para cada estrategia relacionada con los FVGs.
Tómate tu tiempo para hacer pruebas, estudiar y elegir la mejor estrategia como lo harías con cualquier otro indicador.
- Visual:
Al igual que un indicador FVG "genérico" este también dibuja los FVGs, los colores son personalizables para ambos, FVGs alcistas y bajistas.
Cuando un FVG es "tocado" pero no "llenado" cambia de color, que también es personalizable.
Como dije, los uso como entrada y toma de ganancias, así que agregué 3 líneas, una línea de entrada, una línea media y una línea de salida, todas tienen colores personalizados tanto para los FVGs "no tocados" como para los "tocados" para una mejor visualización.
- Personalización:
Todos los colores son personalizables tanto para los FVGs "intactos" como para los "tocados", así como sus líneas y el estilo de las mismas (por lo que puede tener la entrada y la salida punteadas, por ejemplo, pero la línea media punteada, personalización total).
Se puede elegir auto-borrar un FVG si es rellenado un determinado porcentaje en lugar de completo.
Las líneas de entrada y salida pueden ser colocadas en base a un porcentaje también.
Las cajas para los FVGs pueden ser extendidas o no.
Hay un filtro ATR (Average True Ratio) para ignorar (no dibujar) los FVGs pequeños que sólo ensuciarían el gráfico, es personalizado, pero se recomienda el valor por defecto.
- Uso y recomendaciones:
Los FVGs se supone que funcionan en cualquier marco de tiempo, he visto operadores que utilizan mi estrategia (colocar una orden en la línea de entrada y tomar ganancias en la línea de salida) incluso en 1 minuto, sin embargo, si se acumulan muchos FVGs pequeños se puede para abrir una sola posición y tomar ganancias parciales en cada FVG.
Por último, en mis pruebas he visto que en marcos de tiempo de 4H+ muchos FVGs sólo se llenan hasta el 50% como una de las estrategias mencionadas, así que asegúrate de mover tu stop para alcanzar el punto de equilibrio o incluso cerrar la mitad de la posición, es sólo una recomendación para evitar pérdidas absurdas.
¡Que lo disfrutéis!
