ICT Smart Money Liquidity LevelsThe ICT Smart Money Liquidity Levels indicator is designed to visualize key liquidity areas across multiple timeframes. Based on ICT concepts, this tool can help traders analyze price movement, liquidity sweeps, and expansion levels without switching between timeframes.
This indicator highlights liquidity levels at significant highs and lows, allowing users to track potential areas of interest where price may react. By also incorporating historical measurements, it also provides forecasted average sweep and expansion zones.
Features:
- Liquidity Levels
Plots previous HTF candle highs and lows. Available for 1H, 4H, Daily.
- Major Liquidity Levels
Highlights areas where price previously reached a significant high or low within 10 HTF candles. Available for 1H, 4H, Daily.
- Sweep and Expansion Forecast
Uses historical price data to forecast the average sweep and expansion levels for the next HTF candle. Available for 4H, Daily, Weekly, Monthly.
Why Is This Indicator Useful?
Based on ICT concepts, price seeks liquidity, often targeting trapped stops above highs and below lows before reversing or continuing its trend. High-timeframe (HTF) highs and lows, such as 1H, 4H, and Daily liquidity levels, act as natural draw points where price is likely to react. These levels represent areas where stop hunts, liquidity grabs, and institutional order flow often take place. By marking these zones, traders can anticipate where price may seek liquidity before making a significant move.
Additionally, historical liquidity sweeps and expansion zones provide insight into how price has behaved in similar situations in the past. According to ICT methodology, price often manipulates liquidity before expanding in the intended direction. By tracking average sweep and expansion levels, traders can forecast potential price movement, aligning their entries with areas where liquidity has historically been taken or distributed.

ICT AMDWhat the indicator does
This indicator, named "ICT AMD indicator", is designed for traders who follow the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) theory, focusing on identifying and visualizing phases of market structure related to Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution. These phases are crucial for understanding the market's direction and potential turning points. The indicator:
Draws boxes on the chart to represent Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution areas, providing a visual representation of these key market phases.
Highlights areas where the market is likely accumulating assets before a big move, manipulating prices to trigger retail stop losses, and distributing assets after a significant price move.
How the indicator does it
The indicator implements its functionality through a series of calculated steps and conditions:
Utilizes pivot points to identify potential swing highs and lows within the market, which serve as the basis for determining the phases of Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution.
Allows users to customize the pivot range and whether to include wicks in the pivot calculation, giving flexibility in identifying swing points based on personal trading style or strategy.
Creates visual boxes on the chart where these phases are identified:
Accumulation boxes are drawn when the market is perceived to be gathering assets, indicated by a specific price behavior around swing lows.
Manipulation boxes appear around price levels where the market is likely pushing beyond key accumulation or distribution zones, possibly to trigger stop-loss orders.
Distribution boxes are established following the manipulation phase, indicating areas where the market is offloading assets post-accumulation.
Adjusts the right edge of these boxes as new price information becomes available, ensuring they remain relevant and accurate to current market conditions.
Employs color coding (green for Accumulation, red for Manipulation, and blue for Distribution) to make the distinction between different market phases clear and intuitive.
How traders can use it
Traders can leverage the "ICT AMD indicator" to enhance their market analysis and decision-making process:
Identify potential entry and exit points by observing the transitions between Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution phases.
Adjust their risk management strategies based on the identification of Manipulation areas, which could indicate areas of high stop-loss activity.
Use the Accumulation and Distribution boxes to gauge the strength of a trend or potential reversal points, as these areas often precede significant market moves.
Incorporate the indicator's insights with other analysis tools or indicators to confirm trade hypotheses or to refine entry and exit strategies.
Apply the visual cues provided by the indicator to anticipate market moves based on historical patterns of Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution, aligning their trading strategies with the inferred market psychology.
By understanding and utilizing the visual and analytical insights provided by the "ICT AMD indicator", traders can potentially improve their trading outcomes by aligning their strategies with the underlying market dynamics it reveals.

ICT Liquidity Levels [TakingProphets]Overview
This indicator is designed to dynamically identify and display key liquidity levels—areas where market participants are likely to engage. By analyzing price swing points, it highlights potential support and resistance zones that can signal reversals or breakouts. The script distinguishes between buyside and sellside liquidity levels, presenting them with customizable visual cues and labels for immediate clarity.
How It Works
Swing Point Detection:
The indicator uses a pivot-based method (with a configurable “Base Swing Strength”) to detect swing highs and lows. Each detected swing is evaluated for its “swing size” (percentage price movement), and if it exceeds a user-defined threshold, the level is classified as major.
Level Creation and Classification:
Overview
Built on core ICT principles, this indicator identifies key liquidity zones—areas where market imbalances can lead to liquidity sweeps. By dynamically analyzing swing points, it offers traders a real-time view of where liquidity is clustering, allowing for a deeper understanding of market structure. 🚀
How It Works
Swing Point Detection 🔍
• Uses a pivot-based method with a configurable “Base Swing Strength” to detect significant price swings.
• Calculates the swing size (percentage change) to flag zones that exceed the “Major Level Threshold” as major liquidity zones.
Level Creation & Classification 🛠️
• Buyside Liquidity Levels (BSL):
Identified from swing highs, marking zones where buying liquidity clusters.
• Sellside Liquidity Levels (SSL):
Identified from swing lows, highlighting zones of concentrated selling liquidity.
• Each zone is stored with its price, bar index, and classification (major or standard) before being drawn as a horizontal line on the chart.
Dynamic Level Management 🔄
• Extension: Liquidity lines automatically extend from their detection point to the current bar.
• Consolidation: When levels are close in price, the script merges them—updating labels (e.g., “REQH” or “REQL”) to denote unified liquidity zones.
• Traded-Through Detection: Adjusts or removes levels if the market moves beyond them, based on your settings.
• Age-Based Cleanup: Inactive zones are automatically removed after a set number of bars to maintain clarity.
Customization Options ⚙️
Visual Settings:
• Choose from solid, dashed, or dotted line styles and adjust line width.
• Option to display labels with customizable placement (left or right) for optimal clarity.
Color & Opacity:
• Set distinct colors for buyside and sellside liquidity zones.
• Configure opacity for zones that have been traded through, keeping them visible yet de-emphasized.
Detection & Cleanup Parameters:
• Adjust “Base Swing Strength” to control pivot detection sensitivity.
• Set the “Major Level Threshold %” to filter for significant liquidity zones.
• Decide whether to retain or remove zones once price moves through them.
• Define how many bars should pass before inactive zones are automatically deleted.
How to Use 🚀
Apply the Indicator:
Simply add the script to your chart—it automatically detects and marks key liquidity zones based on recent price action.
Adjust Inputs:
Fine-tune parameters like swing strength, threshold percentages, and visual settings to match the asset’s characteristics and your trading strategy.
Interpret the Visuals:
• Major Liquidity Zones:
Highlighted with thicker lines and distinct labels (e.g., “Major BSL/SSL”), indicating areas of heightened liquidity concentration.
• Consolidated Zones:
Merged labels (e.g., “REQH/REQL”) denote unified liquidity zones where clustering is significant.
• Traded-Through Zones:
Changes in opacity signal that the market has moved beyond a previously identified liquidity zone.
Underlying ICT Concepts 💡
Liquidity Pools & Sweeps:
Focused on identifying where liquidity is concentrated, the indicator aligns with ICT methodologies that highlight zones crucial for liquidity sweeps.
Pivot Analysis for Liquidity:
Enhances traditional pivot detection to spotlight liquidity clusters, providing a deeper insight into market structure.
Real-Time Adaptation:
With continuous updates and built-in cleanup, the indicator ensures that liquidity zones accurately reflect current market conditions.

ICT-Elliott Hybrid Oscillator네이버 프리미엄 콘텐츠 > 재테크 사관학교 검색
This indicator uses Elliott Wave Theory and ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts to help easily and accurately predict when asset prices like cryptocurrencies or stocks will rise or fall.
📌 Easy Explanation of Terms
✅ What is Elliott Wave?
A theory stating that price movements follow a specific pattern (5 upward waves + 3 downward waves) repeatedly. Simply put, it's about repetitive cycles of rises and falls creating overall trends.
✅ What is ICT Theory?
A strategy that identifies optimal trading times by observing critical price areas traded by institutional investors (Order Blocks), imbalances in price (Fair Value Gaps - FVG), and major turning points (Break of Structure - BOS).
📈 Signals Provided by the Indicator
🔹 ① Pivot Highs & Lows
Red ▼: Short-term high (increased likelihood of price falling)
Green ▲: Short-term low (increased likelihood of price rising)
🔹 ② Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Green highlighted area: Zone where price is likely to rise again
Red highlighted area: Zone where price is likely to fall again
🔹 ③ Break of Structure (BOS)
Blue "BOS Up": Indicates a shift to an upward trend
Orange "BOS Down": Indicates a shift to a downward trend
⏳ Recommended Timeframe Combinations
| Major Trend (Basic Analysis) | Entry Point (Detailed Analysis) | Short-term Timing (Precision Analysis) |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| 4-hour | 1-hour | 15-minute |
Use the 4-hour timeframe to gauge overall trends,
the 1-hour timeframe to pinpoint exact entry and exit points,
and the 15-minute timeframe for precise timing.
Include Source
🕯 Recommended Candle Patterns
* Pin Bar (Long wick candle) → Trend reversal signal
* Engulfing Candle (fully covering previous candle) → Strong trend reversal signal
* Hammer & Shooting Star (small body with a long wick) → Bullish or bearish reversal signal
* Doji (balance between buyers and sellers) → High potential for trend reversal
ICT Gold Trading ToolFirst, I recall the original code had elements like Break of Structure, Fair Value Gaps, Premium/Discount Zones, Liquidity Pools, and Buy/Sell signals. The user had previous feedback pointing out issues in the code, like incorrect timeframe usage for BOS and FVG inaccuracies. They also suggested improvements, which were incorporated into a revised version.
So, the brief note should highlight the main components of the tool without getting too technical. The user probably wants this for a quick overview, maybe to share with others or for their own reference. They might be a trader familiar with ICT concepts, so using terms like BOS or FVG is okay without explaining each one.
I need to mention that the tool combines multiple ICT strategies into one indicator. It uses higher timeframes for BOS, which is important for structure. FVG detection was corrected in the revised code, so I should note that it identifies 3-candle patterns. The zones and liquidity pools help in identifying market extremes and areas where price might reverse. The buy/sell signals are based on a combination of BOS and zones, which adds confluence.
Also, the user might appreciate knowing that the tool is customizable with inputs for periods, making it adaptable to different trading styles. Emphasizing that it's for visual assistance and not standalone signals is crucial to remind users to use additional analysis.
ICT Unicorn Breaker + FVG Alert📌 How to Use the ICT Breaker Block Indicator
The ICT Breaker Block Indicator helps you spot potential trade opportunities by setting up alerts. Here’s how to get started:
1️⃣ Draw Your Breaker Block
First, find a Bullish or Bearish Breaker Block on your chart.
Bullish Breaker Block: This forms when a bearish order block doesn't hold, and price breaks through to the upside. This indicates a shift from a bearish to a bullish market, with the previous bearish order block now acting as support.
Bearish Breaker Block: This forms when a bullish order block fails to hold, and price breaks through to the downside. This indicates a shift from a bullish to a bearish market, with the previous bullish order block now acting as resistance.
Use the drawing tool to mark the Breaker Block on your chart.
2️⃣ Set Your Entry & Stop Levels
Entry: For a bullish trade, enter at the top of the Breaker Block; for a bearish trade, enter at the bottom.
Stop Loss: Place this on the opposite side of the Breaker Block.
3️⃣ Choose Your Trade Direction
Bullish setup: Choose Buy for a bullish Breaker Block (upward break).
Bearish setup: Choose Sell for a bearish Breaker Block (downward break).
4️⃣ Create Two Alerts
You’ll need to set up the following two alerts in order:
✅ Unicorn Alert (Once Per Bar Close): Set this alert first for your selected Breaker Block (Bullish or Bearish). It triggers when price closes above the entry level (for a bullish setup) or below the entry level (for a bearish setup), and checks for bullish or bearish unmitigated Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) that overlap within the Breaker Block.
✅ Terminus Alert (Triggered Once): Once the Unicorn alert has been triggered, change the alert to a Terminus Alert. This alert is activated once the TP (terminus) is hit before the limit order fills from the Unicorn alert signal.
5️⃣ Automate with Webhook (Optional)

CandelaCharts - OHLC Session Range Map 📝 Overview
Master the art of candlestick analysis with the OHLC Session Range Map!
Enhance your TradingView strategies by incorporating this advanced tool for actionable insights. Far beyond standard OHLC visuals, this innovative indicator integrates Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts to analyze accumulation, manipulation, and distribution, one candle at a time.
ICT traders identify manipulation through wicks that extend opposite the candle’s close—a tactic designed to mislead market participants into taking positions in the "wrong" direction. These movements often signify potential manipulation phases. By interpreting these signals, traders can anticipate a candle’s distribution phase, where the price expands to higher or lower levels. This provides valuable insights into liquidity targets, retracement zones, and potential reversals.
These levels provide critical insights into order flow, illustrating how price interacts with them and the sequence in which it unfolds.
To refine price analysis further, the tool also tracks the average timing for the completion of manipulation and distribution phases. By combining historical timing patterns with price levels tied to these phases, traders can perform more in-depth analyses and enhance their market strategies.
While rooted in historical data, this indicator does not guarantee that past patterns will repeat in future market conditions. Instead, it offers a data-driven approach to identifying moments when candles are likely to reverse after manipulation phases or retrace following completed distributions, enabling traders to spot potential turning points with greater precision.
📦 Features
This tool offers a range of powerful features to enhance your trading analysis:
Average Range Accuracy : Simplify candlestick analysis with advanced lines and labels to pinpoint manipulation, distribution, and time pivots. Graph average ranges for your chosen timeframe to navigate market volatility and uncover key support and resistance zones.

ICT NY Silver Bullet SessionsThe ICT NY Silver Bullet Sessions refer to two specific time windows within the New York trading session, during which traders aim to exploit short-term, high-probability price movements, particularly using price-action techniques inspired by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. These sessions are typically associated with a higher likelihood of volatility and liquidity due to their proximity to key market hours, making them ideal for scalping or intraday trading strategies.
The Silver Bullet concept emphasizes precise entries and exits, taking advantage of institutional trading behaviors and order flow within these two specific time windows:
(I) The AM Silver Bullet Session (10:00 AM – 11:00 AM EST)
Time Frame: This session runs from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM Eastern Standard Time (EST).
Significance: During this hour, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) has been open for about 30 minutes, which typically generates volatility as the market reacts to overnight price movements, economic news, or early U.S. session developments. Traders look for institutional price action setups like stop runs, liquidity grabs, or reversals.
Key Considerations: Traders often focus on major indices (such as the S&P 500 or NASDAQ), forex pairs, or commodities like gold and silver. The AM session is especially important for catching trends or retracements established in the London session or the early New York market hours.
(II) The PM Silver Bullet Session (02:00 PM – 03:00 PM EST)
Time Frame: This session occurs from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST).
Significance: Known as the afternoon session, this time period aligns with institutional rebalancing and pre-close positioning, where significant liquidity enters the market as traders anticipate the upcoming New York close and London close (which happens at 11:00 AM EST). It is also a common time for institutional traders to initiate price moves that carry through into the end of the trading day.
Key Considerations: Traders monitor for key reversals, liquidity sweeps, or continuations of earlier trends. This is a prime time for trading major currencies and indices, as well as commodities like crude oil and metals, with a focus on exploiting liquidity imbalances.

In trading, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) refer to market inefficiencies or imbalances that occur when buying and selling activities are not equal. These gaps can be identified on various timeframes and are used in different trading strategies.
FVGs are crucial in price action trading as they highlight the difference between the current market price of an asset and its fair value. Traders use these gaps to identify potential trading opportunities, as they often indicate areas where the market may correct itself
This indicator will overlap the higher timeframe (HTF) FVGS over the current timeframe to help traders anticipate and plan their trades.
Features
Up to 6 higher timeframes (HTF) can be overlayed on a chart
Traders can limit the number of HTF FVGs to preset number of HTFs
Lower and current timeframes can be included
Configurable spacing of HTF FVGs to prevent overlapping
Configurable Smart Expansion of FVGs based on proximity to current price
Traders can decide what constitutes a Mitigated FVG
Show or hide mitigated FVGs to declutter the chart
Flexible display settings that controls how the FVGs are displayed
Flexible labeling of the FVG levels and content
Higher Timeframes Display Settings
This indicator provides the ability to select up to 6 HTF intervals. These intervals are based on the trader's timeframes including any custom timeframes.
Timeframe Configurations
Enable or Disable a Timeframe
The Timeframe to Display
Bullish / BISI FVG Color
Bearish / SIBI FVG Color
The number of FVGs For The Selected Timeframe
Limit to the next HTFs only can be used to display the selected number of HTF FVGs. For example, if the trader selects 3 then only 3 HTF FVGs will be displayed.
Note: If either of the next two options is selected, they will take up spots from this count.
Hide lower Timeframes restricts the FVGs to higher timeframes only. If this option is disabled, it will show lower timeframes FVGs as well.
Hide Current Timeframe removes current timeframe from the selected list of HTF FVGs. If this option is disabled, it will show current timeframe FVGs as well.
Background Transparency Enable or disable the background color (shaded area) of the FVG. If it is enabled, it will set the transparency amount. The higher the value, the more transparent the background.
Extend lines controls when and how to extend the FVG levels. There are three options:
Extension Only extends the FVGs by the specified number provided below only.
Current Candle Plus Extension extends all the FVGs beyond the current candle by the number provided below.
When in Range will only extend the FVGs near current price based on the advanced settings below. This setting will use Average True Range multiplier to calculate the range (shows FVGs that are higher or lower by the average candle size multiplied by the number in Advanced section).
Mitigated shows or hides the mitigated HTF FVGs. A FVG is considered mitigated based on one of the following options:
None will ignore mitigation and show all FVGs.
Touched when a HTF FVG is touched regardless of how deep the price get inside the FVG.
Wick filled the FVG is closed by a wick or body of a candle.
Body filled the FVG is closed by the body of a candle
Wick filled half a candle's wick or body has reached the C.E. of the FVG
Body filled half a candle body has reached the C.E. of the FVG
Extend mitigated lines sets the number of candles to extend the mitigated FVG levels by for better visibility.
Important Note: Mitigation is calculated based on the timeframe of the FVG, not current timeframe.
Display
Display settings focus on how the FVGs will be displayed. The trader is in total control and there are multiple ways to overlay FVGs on the chart.
Open / Close / C.E. / Link controls the borders. Traders can enable or disable any of them as well as set the thickness and style. Link is the right border.
C.E. also offers the option of setting the bullish (BISI) and bearish (SIBI) colors of the C.E. level
Labeling controls if the labels should be displayed next to the FVG, their color, background, and font size.
Label levels to display controls which levels to show. Open, High. or the C.E.
Label display content controls what to show in the labels, the timeframe of the label, is it a BISI or a SIBI, and a label to indicate if it is the Open or the Close.
Note: if the distance between the open and close has the potential of overlapping the labels, then the indicator will only show the C.E. label for visual clarity.
Advanced Settings
Advanced settings controls some internal calculations:
Proximity factor based on daily range used to calculate possible range of FVGs within a day's range to keep the chart clean. The higher the value, the more FVGs will be shown.
Combine labels factor for visibility used to calculate the distance between the open and close and if all the labels or only the C.E. should be displayed. The higher the value, the bigger the distance for combination (smaller numbers will show more labels).
Range should be within X candles used when "When in Range" option is selected. This is the ATR multiplier used to extend the FVGs. The higher the number, the more FVGs will be extended.
Once desired settings have been achieved, the settings can be saved as default from the bottom left of the indicator settings page for future use.
ICT Custom OPENSA basic Indicator, meant to delineate Specific ICT reference open times To be used with any ICT model that accounts for such, Time zone is set to the default UTC-4, New York Eastern Time, and all open times can be adjusted manually to the user's liking. Also displays labels for days of the week that can be positioned at the top or bottom of the chart
ICT IPDAGuided by ICT tutoring, I create this versatile indicator "IPDA".
This indicator shows a different way of viewing the “IPDA” by calculating from START
(-20 / -40 / -60) to (+20 /+40 /+60) Days, showing the Highs and Lows of the IPDA of the Previous days and both of the subsequent ones, the levels of (-20 / -40 / -60) Days can be taken into consideration as objectives to be achieved in the range of days (+20 /+40 /+60)
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose whether to display IPDAs before and after START
- Choose to show High and Low levels
- Choose to show Prices
The indicator should be used as ICT shows in its concepts.
Example on how to evaluate a possible Start IPDA:
Example for Entry targeting IPDAs :

ICT Premium/DiscountGuided by ICT mentorship and help from TraderTim and its community, I created this versatile indicator to mark a "Premium/Discount" price range.
This indicator shows the Premium and Discount Zones in an alternative way, manually setting the start of the band and automatically shows the HTF and LTF FVG present only in the set band, having a cleaning of the graph from possible other distractions, so as to be able to have a clear vision clear of the set trading range
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose the start of the interval from the graph by moving the start line
- Choose to show levels 50% - 75% - 25% of the range
- Choose the color, style and size of the lines
- Choose to display FVG LTF or HTF in range
- Choose the FVG mitigation mode
The indicator must be used as shown by the ICT in its concepts, the Premium and Discount zones are nothing more than zones where the price risks retracing, and consequently we can evaluate making entries in the Premium Zone, Sell is evaluated, in the Discoutn Zone they are evaluated as Buy, taking the opposite area as Take Profit
As in the example below:
If anything is unclear, comment below and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
How to change range:
ICT index correlated market indicatorThis is not a real indicator, but is what ICT use as indicator for trading futures indexes.
it can only display SP500, Dow Jon Industrial Average and Nasdaq, if someone want other market can copy the code and change some parameters (is more easy than it can appear)
A good idea is using this other market on backtest to confirm the divergence idea of Linda Raske, than use it to spot quickly in real market.
Another idea published by ICT is the "hidden entry pattern", the entry signal appear in ES or YM but I trade NQ for volatility, so I use the trigger of SP500 or Dow to enter in Nasdaq.
Rember always don't trust anybody, do your own backtest and research!
(ICT)Liquidity Grab + FVG + MSS/BOSThis script is a comprehensive educational indicator that combines and enhances several well-known trading concepts:
Liquidity Grabs (Swing Failure Patterns)
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Market Structure Shifts / Break of Structure (MSS/BOS)
Alerts
It identifies potential bullish and bearish liquidity grabs, confirms them optionally using volume validation on a lower timeframe, and tracks subsequent price structure changes. The indicator visually marks key swing highs/lows, FVG zones, and BOS/MSS levels—allowing traders to observe how price reacts to liquidity and imbalance zones.
🔍 Features:
Swing Failure Patterns (SFP):
Highlights possible liquidity grabs based on recent highs/lows and candle structure.
Volume Validation (Optional):
Filter signals using relative volume outside the swing on a lower timeframe. Adjustable threshold.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
Detects imbalance gaps and extends them for easy visualization.
Market Structure (MSS/BOS):
Displays Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) based on pivot highs/lows and closing conditions.
Dashboard:
A compact info panel displaying lower timeframe settings and validation status.
Custom Styling:
Adjustable colors, line styles, and label visibility for clean charting.
🧠 Ideal For:
Traders studying ICT concepts, smart money theories, and price-action-based strategies who want a visual tool for analysis and backtesting.
How to Use:
Wait for a Liquidity Grab (SFP) to form
The first condition for a potential entry is the formation of a Stop Hunt / Swing Failure Pattern (SFP).
This indicates that liquidity has been taken above or below a key level (e.g., previous high/low), and the market may be ready to reverse.
Confirmation with Fair Value Gap (FVG) and Market Structure Shift (MSS)
After the SFP, do not enter immediately. Wait for confirmation:
FVG : A Fair Value Gap (an imbalance in price action) must appear, signaling potential institutional activity.
MSS : A Market Structure Shift (break in the current trend) confirms a possible trend reversal or strong corrective move.
Enter the trade
Once both the FVG and MSS are confirmed after the SFP, you can safely enter a trade in the direction of the shift.
Alert Feature
The indicator includes an alert system to notify you when all conditions are met (SFP + FVG + MSS), so you can react quickly without constantly watching the chart.

ICT Balanced Price Range - Double FVG with VolumeThis is an FVG indicator combined with volume to identify moments when a sudden volume spike creates a price gap.
Additionally, I've added the ICT Balanced Price Range, which occurs when two opposing FVGs form a connected gap. This gap has a high probability of reversal and is one of the key signs of liquidity sweeps.
Unlike other FVG indicators that filter FVGs based on ATR, average price, or range, I believe such methods lead to overfitting and may not work across multiple pairs with a single setting. Instead, I only filter FVGs when there are consecutive overlapping FVGs.
The indicator includes full functionality:
Candle color customization
FVG line color customization
FVG fill color customization
BPR color customization
Adjustable average volume and volume threshold
Highlighting candles with abnormal volume
Enjoy and make sure to backtest thoroughly before using!
ICT Concepts: MML, Order Blocks, FVG, OTECore ICT Trading Concepts
These strategies are designed to identify high-probability trading opportunities by analyzing institutional order flow and market psychology.
1. Market Maker Liquidity (MML) / Liquidity Pools
Idea: Institutional traders ("market makers") place orders around key price levels where retail traders’ stop losses cluster (e.g., above swing highs or below swing lows).
Application: Look for "liquidity grabs" where price briefly spikes to these levels before reversing.
Example: If price breaks a recent high but reverses sharply, it may indicate a liquidity grab to trigger retail stops before a trend reversal.
2. Order Blocks (OB)
Idea: Institutional orders are often concentrated in specific price zones ("order blocks") where large buy/sell decisions occurred.
Application: Identify bullish order blocks (strong buying zones) or bearish order blocks (strong selling zones) on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H/4H charts).
Example: A bullish order block forms after a strong rally; price often retests this zone later as support.
3. Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Idea: A price imbalance occurs when candles gap without overlapping, creating an area of "unfair" price that the market often revisits.
Application: Trade the retracement to fill the FVG. A bullish FVG acts as support, and a bearish FVG acts as resistance.
Example: Three consecutive candles create a gap; price later returns to fill this gap, offering a entry point.
4. Time-Based Analysis (NY Session, London Kill Zones)
Idea: Institutional activity peaks during specific times (e.g., 7 AM – 11 AM New York time).
Application: Focus on trades during high-liquidity periods when banks and hedge funds are active.
Example: The "London Kill Zone" (2 AM – 5 AM EST) often sees volatility due to European market openings.
5. Optimal Trade Entry (OTE)
Idea: A retracement level (similar to Fibonacci retracement) where institutions re-enter trends after a pullback.
Application: Look for 62–79% retracements in a trend to align with institutional accumulation/distribution zones.
Example: In an uptrend, price retraces 70% before resuming upward—enter long here.
6. Stop Hunts
Idea: Institutions manipulate price to trigger retail stop losses before reversing direction.
Application: Avoid placing stops at obvious levels (e.g., above/below recent swings). Instead, use wider stops or wait for confirmation.
