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

Pontos e níveis de pivô
Fish OrbThis indicator marks and tracks the first 15-minute range of the New York session open (default 9:30–9:45 AM ET) — a critical volatility period for futures like NQ (Nasdaq).
It helps you visually anchor intraday price action to that initial opening range.
Core Functionality
1. Opening Range Calculation
It measures the High, Low, and Midpoint of the first 15 minutes after the NY market opens (default 09:30–09:45 ET).
You can change the window or timezone in the inputs.
2. Visual Overlays
During the 15-minute window:
A teal shaded box highlights the open range period.
Live white lines mark the current High and Low.
A red line marks the midpoint (mid-range).
These update in real-time as each bar forms.
3. Post-Window Behavior
When the 15-minute window ends:
The High, Low, and Midpoint are locked in.
The indicator draws persistent horizontal lines for those values.
4. Historical Days
You can keep today + a set number of previous days (configurable via “Previous Days to Keep”).
Older days automatically delete to keep charts clean.
5. Line Extension Control
Each day’s lines extend to the right after they form.
You can toggle “Stop Lines at Next NY Open”:
ON: Yesterday’s lines stop exactly at the next NY session open (09:30 ET).
OFF: Lines extend indefinitely across the chart.
Session Opens by TradeSeekersIt doesn't get much simpler than this indicator for futures traders wanting to track four key session open prices.
Sessions
1. ETH open - extended hours starts
2. Midnight open - new calendar day starts
3. CME open - Chicago exchange opens, data releases
4. RTH open - regular trading hours, volume cometh
Usage
All four of these prices / areas are important for futures traders to pay attention to.
RTH opens far below ETH sometimes will retrace, CME and RTH together can act as a powerful range.
Midnight open sometimes has little importance for the day, but then again it's provided beautiful bounces. Again each level I find to be impactful nearly every session, so I like to keep them close by in an understated manner.
Timezone
If you're not EST, adjust the timezone string accordingly (refer to TradingView docs for string formats).
Proximity Detection
Also, I added proximity detection that aims to keep level collisions from occurring. If a particular session open isn't shown it may be due to being exactly the same price as another open or it's too close to another open.
The proximity sensitivity can be adjusted in settings. The on chart appearance doesn't impact the alerting capability.
Aesthetics
I don't like boring charts so I added a fun "glow" effect, I went with a palette that reminded me of clear sky colors at those times of day (if you're EST).
Alerting
Alerting can be done with just a single alert, first open the indicator config and uncheck any session opens you don't want to be alerted on (why!?), and then use the standard alert menus in TradingView to set the alert on "Any alert() function call".
Why does this beautiful indicator exist?
While there are a handful of indicators that plot open prices with some overlap to this one, I didn't see any that alerted automatically without much fuss.

Institutional Compression Breakout (ICBO Algo) [@darshakssc]The ICBO Algo is a smart intraday trading tool that detects institutional compression zones followed by breakout confirmation. It combines candle range analysis, volume compression, EMA filtering, and ATR-based Risk/Reward zones to highlight high-probability trade setups with visual clarity.
This script is designed for educational and research purposes only, fully aligned with TradingView’s Pine Script policy and publishing guidelines.
🔍 Key Features
🌀 Compression Zone Detection
Identifies low-range, low-volume candles often formed before institutional breakouts.
📈📉 Breakout Signals
Triggered after confirmed price + EMA breakout post-compression.
📊 Dashboard Panel
Displays breakout phase, current R:R ratio, and zone status in real-time.
🟢🔴 Buy/Sell Labels with Emojis
Clean and non-intrusive labels for immediate action recognition.
🔔 Alerts Included
Receive real-time push, email, or webhook alerts for breakout signals.
⚙️ How It Works
Compression Phase:
When the candle range and volume are significantly lower than the moving average, the script flags it as a compression zone.
Breakout Confirmation:
A breakout signal is confirmed when the price breaks the previous high/low and is above/below the trend EMA.
Entry Logic:
📈 Buy: Price > previous high + above EMA after compression
📉 Sell: Price < previous low + below EMA after compression

Orderblocks & BreakersThis indicator identifies potential orderblocks and breakers based on recent swing highs and lows. It is built to offer a structured, customizable, and noise-controlled view of how price interacts with supply and demand levels.
The script applies pivot-based swing detection to identify swing highs and lows.
Bullish Orderblocks: The script Identifies and stores the last down candle before a swing high is breached and confirms and plots the orderblock with a market structure break (close above the swing high).
Bearish Orderblocks: The script Identifies and stores the last up candle before a swing low is breached and confirms and plots the orderblock with a market structure break (close below the swing low).
When price later closes through an existing orderblock, it is reclassified as a Breaker and recolored accordingly. (all colors can be changed in the settings)
What Makes It Different
Unlike most orderblock tools that simply mark every swing-based block, this version introduces:
1. Chop Control – automatically hides breakers that price repeatedly closes through (2 closes after the orderblock becomes a breaker), keeping only relevant zones visible.
2. Recent Block Filtering – limits how many of the recent orderblocks or breakers are displayed, preventing chart clutter.
3. Dynamic Updating – orderblocks automatically convert to breakers when price closes beyond them, with clear color changes.
These features make it easier to study cleaner price structure without manually managing old or invalid zones. The optional Chop Control filter can reduce overlapping or repeatedly invalidated zones to keep the chart clearer.
Customizable Parameters
- Swing detection length (shorter means more aggressive pivot detection, longer means less aggressive so less highs/lows detected)
- Number of recent blocks to display
- Visibility toggles for orderblocks or breakers
- Color and transparency controls for each type
Alerts
Alerts can be set to trigger when price tests any defined zone.
Purpose
This indicator is designed as a price structure visualization and study tool.
It may assist in understanding how price interacts with previously active regions, but it does not produce signals or trade recommendations.
FVG Volume Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
FVG Volume Profile is a smart volume analysis tool that identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and overlays a volume profile inside each gap using data from lower timeframes. The indicator automatically selects the best time resolution or allows for manual control, giving traders deeper insight into the volume structure within each imbalance. POC levels and total volumes gives a full microstructure view inside every FVG.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Fair Value Gap Detection (Bullish & Bearish)
Detects price gaps where inefficiency exists using a 3-bar structure.
-Bullish Gaps: Low > High with confirming middle bar.
-Bearish Gaps: High < Low with confirming middle bar.
Only significant gaps (filtered by standard deviation) are plotted to avoid noise.
Multi-Timeframe Volume Profiling
Pulls granular candle and volume data from a lower timeframe —
In Auto Mode, uses a resolution ~10x lower than the current chart.
In Manual Mode, lets the user select a custom timeframe.
This ensures accurate intra-gap volume distribution.
Dynamic Volume Binning
Each FVG is divided into vertical volume bins based on the Resolution input.
Each bin displays relative volume intensity as a horizontal box, scaled by percentage of the max bin volume.
Point of Control (PoC) Line & Label
The bin with the maximum volume inside each FVG is marked with:
A horizontal line (PoC) extending from the left to right side.
A label showing the absolute volume of that bin.
Color-coded to match bullish or bearish FVGs.
Total Volume Label Inside FVG
Each FVG displays the total volume sum from its profile:
For bullish FVGs , shown in the bottom-right corner.
For bearish FVGs , shown in the top-right corner.
Auto-Removal of Invalid Gaps
If price fully closes the gap (crosses its bounds), the FVG, profile, and PoC are deleted automatically.
This keeps the chart clean and focused only on active zones.
Toggleable Volume Profile Display
User can show or hide the volume profiles within FVGs using the "Display" toggle under the "FVG Volume Profile" group.
Only the PoC and FVG boxes remain visible if toggled off.
Volume Resolution Customization
Control the number of bins used for each FVG profile.
Higher resolution = more bins and finer volume analysis. (default 15)
Auto Timeframe Validation Warning
If the selected lower timeframe isn’t actually lower than the chart's, the script shows a visible warning label prompting adjustment.
Helps prevent calculation errors.
⯁ USAGE
Use this tool to identify active imbalance zones (FVGs) with embedded volume context.
Look for PoC positioning inside gaps — near top may indicate absorption or reversal zones.
Combine with price action at the PoC level for precision entries.
Hide volume profile for a cleaner view while retaining key POC and FVG boxes.
Use resolution controls to zoom into fine-grained profiles inside large gaps.
Consider Auto mode for seamless multi-timeframe analysis, or switch to Manual for full control.
⯁ CONCLUSION
FVG Volume Profile transforms raw imbalance detection into actionable insight by embedding lower-timeframe volume structure inside each Fair Value Gap. With PoC highlights, total volume labels, and customizable bin resolution, this indicator is essential for traders who want to understand not just where the gap is — but what volume did inside it .

Mean Reverting Suite [OmegaTools]Overview
The Mean Reverting Suits (MR Suite) by OmegaTools is an advanced analytical and visualization framework designed to identify directional exhaustion, statistical overextensions, and conditions consistent with mean-reversion dynamics. It integrates three pillars into a single display: a composite momentum-normalized oscillator, a percentile-based extension model with volume contextualization, and a dynamic structural mapping engine built on confirmed pivots. The indicator does not generate signals or prescribe trade actions; it provides objective context so users can evaluate market balance and the likelihood that price is departing from its recent statistical baseline.
Core logic
The composite oscillator blends MFI on two horizons and RSI on HL2, then averages them to produce a stabilized mean-reversion gauge. Candle and bar colors are mapped by a dual gradient centered at 50. Readings above 50 progressively shift from neutral gray toward the bearish accent color to reflect increasing momentum saturation; readings below 50 shift from the bullish accent color toward gray to reflect potential accumulation or temporary undervaluation. This continuous mapping avoids rigid thresholds and conveys the strength and decay of momentum as a smooth spectrum.
The percentile-based extension model measures the persistence of directional bias by tracking how many bars have elapsed since the last opposing condition. These rolling counts are compared to the 80th percentile of their own historical distributions stored in arrays. When a current streak exceeds its respective percentile, the environment is labeled as statistically extended in that direction. Background shading communicates this information and is modulated by relative volume, computed as live volume divided by a blended average of SMA(30) and EMA(11). Higher opacity implies greater liquidity participation during the extension.
The structural mapping module uses confirmed pivot highs and lows at the chosen length to create persistent horizontal levels that extend forward and automatically maintain themselves until price invalidates or refreshes them. These levels represent market memory zones and assist in reading where reactions previously formed. The engine updates in real time, ensuring the framework continuously reflects the prevailing structure.
Standard deviation and z-score overlay
The updated version introduces a mean and dispersion layer. A simple moving average of HL2 over twice the length provides the reference mean. Dispersion is estimated as the moving average of the absolute deviation between close and the mean over five times the length. The z-score is computed as the distance of price from the mean divided by this dispersion proxy. Visual arrows highlight observations where the absolute z-score exceeds two standard deviations, offering a concise view of statistically unusual departures from the local mean. This layer complements the percentile extension model by adding an orthogonal measure of extremity based on distributional distance rather than run length.
Visualization
Candle bodies and borders inherit the oscillator’s gradient color, creating an immediate sense of directional pressure and potential momentum fatigue. The chart background activates when the extension model detects a statistically rare streak, using blue tones for bearish extension and red tones for bullish extension, with intensity scaling by relative volume. Horizontal lines denote active pivot-based levels, automatically extending, truncating, and refreshing as structure evolves. The z-score arrows appear only when deviations exceed the ±2 threshold, keeping the display focused on noteworthy statistical events.
Inputs and configuration
Length controls the sensitivity of all modules. Lower values make the oscillator and pivot detection more reactive; higher values smooth readings and widen structural context. Bullish and Bearish colors are user-selectable to match platform themes or accessibility requirements.
Interpretation guidance
A strong red background indicates an unusually extended bullish run in the presence of meaningful volume; a strong blue background indicates an unusually extended bearish run in the presence of meaningful volume. Candle gradients near deep bearish tones suggest oscillator readings well above 50; gradients near deep bullish tones suggest oscillator readings well below 50. Pivot lines mark the most recently confirmed structural levels that the market has reacted to. Z-score arrows denote points where price has moved beyond approximately two standard deviations of its local mean, signaling statistically uncommon distance rather than directional persistence. None of these elements are directives; they are objective descriptors designed to improve situational awareness.
Advantages
The framework is adaptive by design and self-normalizes to each instrument’s volatility and rhythm through percentile logic and dispersion-based distance. It is volume-aware, visually encoding liquidity pressure so that users can distinguish thin extensions from structurally significant ones. It reduces chart clutter by unifying momentum state, statistical extension, standard deviation distance, and structural levels into a single coherent view. It is asset- and timeframe-agnostic, suitable for intraday through swing horizons across futures, equities, FX, and digital assets.
Usage notes
MR Suite is intended for analytical and educational purposes. It does not provide trading signals, risk parameters, or strategy instructions. Users may employ its context alongside their own methodologies, risk frameworks, and execution rules. The indicator’s value derives from quantifying how unusual a move is, showing how much liquidity supports it, and anchoring that information to evolving structural references, thereby improving the clarity and consistency of discretionary assessment without prescribing actions.

Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R [Alpha Extract]Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R is a precision-crafted trailing stop and market structure detection system that fuses advanced Chandelier Exit logic with intelligent, multi-timeframe support and resistance tracking. This indicator delivers adaptive trend detection, volatility-aware exit positioning, and real-time structural mapping in a clean, responsive format. By combining directional filtering, pivot zone detection, and customizable styling, Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R is designed to give traders reliable context, strong risk management, and visually intuitive confirmation signals across all timeframes and asset classes.
🔶 Adaptive Trailing Stop Architecture
At the core of Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R is a refined Chandelier Exit mechanism that dynamically calculates trailing stops based on recent highs and lows, ATR volatility, and trend sensitivity. The system features directional memory, anchoring the stop to maintain position until a confirmed trend break occurs. This method prevents premature flips and keeps the trade aligned with sustained momentum.
longStop := close > longStop ? math.max(longStop, longStop ) : longStop
shortStop := close < shortStop ? math.min(shortStop, shortStop ) : shortStop
🔶 Volatility-Weighted Filtering
To reduce noise and improve reaction quality, Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R includes an optional volatility normalization filter. This system adjusts ATR output based on how elevated it is relative to its own average, effectively down-weighting erratic price moves while maintaining responsiveness in directional phases.
volatilityFilter = enableVolatilityFilter ? ta.sma(baseATR, length) / baseATR : 1.0
atr = mult * baseATR * sensitivity * volatilityFilter
🔶 Trend Strength-Aware State Transitions
Trend flips in Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R are not based solely on price crossing the stop level. Instead, the system includes a momentum-derived trend strength filter that validates the legitimacy of directional shifts. This guards against weak reversals and gives stronger confidence in breakout moves.
priceChange = math.abs(close - close )
avgPriceChange = ta.sma(priceChange, length)
trendStrength = math.min(priceChange / avgPriceChange * 100, 200)
🔶 Multi-Timeframe Support & Resistance Zones
Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R embeds a sophisticated pivot-based structure mapping engine that automatically identifies significant price reaction levels and tracks their validity over time. It filters redundant zones, removes invalidated levels, and renders real-time support and resistance overlays based on market structure.
if isUniqueLevel(ph, resistanceLevels)
array.unshift(resistanceLevels, ph)
if isUniqueLevel(pl, supportLevels)
array.unshift(supportLevels, pl)
