ICT Setup 03 [TradingFinder] Judas Swing NY 9:30am + CHoCH/FVG🔵 Introduction
Judas Swing is an advanced trading setup designed to identify false price movements early in the trading day. This advanced trading strategy operates on the principle that major market players, or "smart money," drive price in a certain direction during the early hours to mislead smaller traders.
This deceptive movement attracts liquidity at specific levels, allowing larger players to execute primary trades in the opposite direction, ultimately causing the price to return to its true path.
The Judas Swing setup functions within two primary time frames, tailored separately for Forex and Stock markets. In the Forex market, the setup uses the 8:15 to 8:30 AM window to identify the high and low points, followed by the 8:30 to 8:45 AM frame to execute the Judas move and identify the CISD Level break, where Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones are subsequently detected.
In the Stock market, these time frames shift to 9:15 to 9:30 AM for identifying highs and lows and 9:30 to 9:45 AM for executing the Judas move and CISD Level break.
Concepts such as Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) are crucial in this setup. An Order Block represents a chart region with a high volume of buy or sell orders placed by major financial institutions, marking significant levels where price reacts.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) refers to areas where price has moved rapidly without balance between supply and demand, highlighting zones of potential price action and future liquidity.

🔵 How to Use
The Judas Swing setup enables traders to pinpoint entry and exit points by utilizing Order Block and FVG concepts, helping them align with liquidity-driven moves orchestrated by smart money. This setup applies two distinct time frames for Forex and Stocks to capture early deceptive movements, offering traders optimized entry or exit moments.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In the Bullish Judas Swing setup, the first step is to identify High and Low points within the initial time frame. These levels serve as key points where price may react, forming the basis for analyzing the setup and assisting traders in anticipating future market shifts.
In the second time frame, a critical stage of the bullish setup begins. During this phase, the price may create a false break or Fake Break below the low level, a deceptive move by major players to absorb liquidity. This false move often causes smaller traders to enter positions incorrectly. After this fake-out, the price reverses upward, breaking the CISD Level, a critical point in the market structure, signaling a potential bullish trend.
Upon breaking the CISD Level and reversing upward, the indicator identifies both the Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG). The Order Block is an area where major players typically place large buy orders, signaling potential price support. Meanwhile, the FVG marks a region of supply-demand imbalance, signaling areas where price might react.
Ultimately, after these key zones are identified, a trader may open a buy position if the price reaches one of these critical areas—Order Block or FVG—and reacts positively. Trading at these levels enhances the chance of success due to liquidity absorption and support from smart money, marking an opportune time for entering a long position.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In the Bearish Judas Swing setup, analysis begins with marking the High and Low levels in the initial time frame. These levels serve as key zones where price could react, helping to signal possible trend reversals. Identifying these levels is essential for locating significant bearish zones and positioning traders to capitalize on downward movements.
In the second time frame, the primary bearish setup unfolds. During this stage, price may exhibit a Fake Break above the high, causing a brief move upward and misleading smaller traders into incorrect positions. After this false move, the price typically returns downward, breaking the CISD Level—a crucial bearish trend indicator.
With the CISD Level broken and a bearish trend confirmed, the indicator identifies the Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG). The Bearish Order Block is a region where smart money places significant sell orders, prompting a negative price reaction. The FVG denotes an area of supply-demand imbalance, signifying potential selling pressure.
When the price reaches one of these critical areas—the Bearish Order Block or FVG—and reacts downward, a trader may initiate a sell position. Entering trades at these levels, due to increased selling pressure and liquidity absorption, offers traders an advantage in profiting from price declines.
🔵 Settings
Market : The indicator allows users to choose between Forex and Stocks, automatically adjusting the time frames for the "Opening Range" and "Trading Permit" accordingly: Forex: 8:15–8:30 AM for identifying High and Low points, and 8:30–8:45 AM for capturing the Judas move and CISD Level break. Stocks: 9:15–9:30 AM for identifying High and Low points, and 9:30–9:45 AM for executing the Judas move and CISD Level break.
Refine Order Block : Enables finer adjustments to Order Block levels for more accurate price responses.
Mitigation Level OB : Allows users to set specific reaction points within an Order Block, including: Proximal: Closest level to the current price. 50% OB: Midpoint of the Order Block. Distal: Farthest level from the current price.
FVG Filter : The Judas Swing indicator includes a filter for Fair Value Gap (FVG), allowing different filtering based on FVG width: FVG Filter Type: Can be set to "Very Aggressive," "Aggressive," "Defensive," or "Very Defensive." Higher defensiveness narrows the FVG width, focusing on narrower gaps.
Mitigation Level FVG : Like the Order Block, you can set price reaction levels for FVG with options such as Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal.
CISD : The Bar Back Check option enables traders to specify the number of past candles checked for identifying the CISD Level, enhancing CISD Level accuracy on the chart.
🔵 Conclusion
The Judas Swing indicator helps traders spot reliable trading opportunities by detecting false price movements and key levels such as Order Block and FVG. With a focus on early market movements, this tool allows traders to align with major market participants, selecting entry and exit points with greater precision, thereby reducing trading risks.
Its extensive customization options enable adjustments for various market types and trading conditions, giving traders the flexibility to optimize their strategies. Based on ICT techniques and liquidity analysis, this indicator can be highly effective for those seeking precision in their entry points.
Overall, Judas Swing empowers traders to capitalize on significant market movements by leveraging price volatility. Offering precise and dependable signals, this tool presents an excellent opportunity for enhancing trading accuracy and improving performance

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

🔶 BASIC DEMONSTRATION
The preceding image illustrates the market structure functionality within the Smart Money Concepts indicator.
Solid lines: These represent the core indicator's internal structure, forming the foundation for most other components. They visually depict the overall market direction and identify major reversal points marked by significant price movements (denoted as 'x').
Dotted lines: These represent an alternative internal structure with the potential to drive more rapid market shifts. This is particularly relevant when a significant gap exists in the established swing structure, specifically between the Break of Structure (BOS) and the most recent Change of High/Low (CHoCH). Identifying these formations can offer opportunities for quicker entries and potential short-term reversals.
Sweeps (x): These signify potential turning points in the market where liquidity is removed from the structure. This suggests a possible trend reversal and presents crucial entry opportunities. Sweeps are identified within both swing and internal structures, providing valuable insights for informed trading decisions.
🔶 USAGE & EXAMPLES
The image above showcases a detailed example of several features from our toolkit that can be used in conjunction for a comprehensive analysis.
Price rejecting from the bullish order block (POC), while printing inside a bullish SFP and internal structure turning bullish (Internal CHoCH).
The image further demonstrates how two bearish order blocks could potentially act as resistance zones when prices approach those levels. These areas might also offer attractive locations to place take-profit orders.
The price has reached our first take-profit level, but is exhibiting some signs of weakness, suggesting a potential pullback which could put the trade at higher risk.
On the other hand, the price action currently exhibits strong bullish sentiment, suggesting favorable entry points and a potential upward trend.
The price has now fully reached our take-profit zone and is also exhibiting bearish confluence, indicating a potential price reversal or trend shift.
🔶 USING CONFLUENCE
The core principle behind the success of this toolkit lies in identifying "confluence." This refers to the convergence of multiple trading indicators all signaling the same information at a specific point or area. By seeking such alignment, traders can significantly enhance the likelihood of successful trades.
In the image above we can see a few examples of the indicator used in confluence with other metrics included in the toolkit.
Liquidity Prints within order blocks
SFP close to the POC
Sweep in liquidity close to a fair value gaps
These are just a few examples of what applying confluence can look like.
🔶 SETTINGS
Window: limit calculation period
Swing: limit drawing function
Internal: a period of the beginning of the internal structure
Mapping structure: show structural points
Algorithmic Logic: (Extreme-Adjusted) Use max high/low or pivot point calculation
Algorithmic loopback: pivot point look back
Premium / Discount: Lookback period of the pivot point calculation
Show Last: Amount of Order block to display
Hide Overlap: hide overlapping order blocks
Construction: Size of the order blocks
Fair value gaps: Choose between normal FVG or Breaker FVG
Mitigation: (close - wick- avg) point to mitigate the order block/imbalance
SFP lookback: find a higher / lower point to improve accuracy
Threshold: remove less relevant SFP
Equal h&L: (short-mid-long term) display longer term

Anti-SMT + FVG SignalMade by Laila
Anti-SMT + FVG Strategy
A contrarian price-action strategy that combines SMT illusion with Fair Value Gap (FVG) confirmation and multiple filters.
Strategy Concept
This strategy challenges traditional SMT divergence logic. Instead of entering trades based on expected SMT divergence between correlated pairs (e.g., EURUSD and DXY), it assumes the divergence is false and will reverse. The concept is to take advantage of these false signals, also known as "SMT illusions."
To confirm the setup, the strategy integrates Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), which are price imbalances left unfilled between candle 1 and 3.
Anti-SMT Logic
Short Entry:
EURUSD makes a new high (Candle 1)
DXY does not make a new low
Long Entry:
EURUSD makes a new low (Candle 1)
DXY does not make a new high
This divergence is considered false, and the strategy expects a reversal.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Confirmation
A trade is only triggered if the price touches a Fair Value Gap during:
Candle 1 (the candle that forms the SMT illusion), or
Candle 2 (entry confirmation)
This helps avoid low-quality setups and increases entry precision.
Additional Filters
To improve robustness and prevent overfitting, the strategy includes:
EMA Trend Filter:
Long entries are allowed only if price is above the 50 EMA
Short entries are allowed only if price is below the 50 EMA
Time Filter:
Trades are only permitted between 08:00 and 18:00 UTC
Cooldown Filter:
A minimum of 10 candles between trades is required to prevent overtrading
Strategy Parameters and Defaults
Optimized for EURUSD on the 4-hour (4H) timeframe
Includes realistic commission and slippage
Uses conservative position sizing (e.g., 1% per trade)
Backtesting over hundreds of trades shows approximately 57% win rate under default conditions
These results are historical and do not guarantee future performance
Purpose and Value
This strategy offers a structured and logical approach to contrarian trading by:
Introducing the concept of false SMT divergence
Using price inefficiencies (FVGs) as confirmation
Filtering trades with realistic and widely accepted conditions
Encouraging quality over quantity through strict entry rules
It is not a simple mashup but a well-defined trading system that blends institutional concepts in a usable framework.

Buyside & Sellside Liquidity [LuxAlgo]The Buyside & Sellside Liquidity indicator aims to detect & highlight the first and arguably most important concept within the ICT trading methodology, Liquidity levels.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Liquidity Levels
Detection Length: Lookback period
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for a liquidity level detection
🔹 Liquidity Zones
Buyside Liquidity Zones: Enables display of the buyside liquidity zones.
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for the liquidity zone boundaries.
Color: Color option for buyside liquidity levels & zones.
Sellside Liquidity Zones: Enables display of the sellside liquidity zones.
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for the liquidity zone boundaries.
Color: Color option for sellside liquidity levels & zones.
🔹 Liquidity Voids
Liquidity Voids: Enables display of both bullish and bearish liquidity voids.
Label: Enables display of a label indicating liquidity voids.
🔹 Display Options
Mode: Controls the lookback length of detection and visualization, where Present assumes last 500 bars and Historical assumes all data available to the user
# Visible Levels: Controls the amount of the liquidity levels/zones to be visualized.
🔶 USAGE
Definitions of Liquidity refer to the availability of orders at specific price levels in the market, allowing transactions to occur smoothly.
In the context of Inner Circle Trader's teachings, liquidity mainly relates to stop losses or pending orders and liquidity level/pool, highlighting a concentration of buy or sell orders at specific price levels. Smart money traders, such as banks and other large institutions, often target these liquidity levels/pools to accumulate or distribute their positions.
There are two types of liquidity; Buyside liquidity and Sellside liquidity .
Buyside liquidity represents a level on the chart where short sellers will have their stops positioned, and Sellside liquidity represents a level on the chart where long-biased traders will place their stops.
These areas often act as support or resistance levels and can provide trading opportunities.
When the liquidity levels are breached at which many stop/limit orders are placed have been traded through, the script will create a zone aiming to provide additional insight to figure out the odds of the next price action.
Reversal: It’s common that the price may reverse course and head in the opposite direction, seeking liquidity at the opposite extreme.
Continuation: When the zone is also broken it is a sign for continuation price action.
It's worth noting that ICT concepts are specific to the methodology developed by Michael J. Huddleston and may not align with other trading approaches or strategies.
🔶 DETAILS
Liquidity voids are sudden changes in price when the price jumps from one level to another. Liquidity voids will appear as a single or a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction. These candles typically have large real bodies and very short wicks, suggesting very little disagreement between buyers and sellers. The peculiar thing about liquidity voids is that they almost always fill up.
🔶 ALERTS
When an alert is configured, the user will have the ability to be notified in case;
Liquidity level is detected/updated.
Liquidity level is breached.

Market Structure & Liquidity: CHoCHs+Nested Pivots+FVGs+Sweeps//Purpose:
This indicator combines several tools to help traders track and interpret price action/market structure; It can be divided into 4 parts;
1. CHoCHs, 2. Nested Pivot highs & lows, 3. Grade sweeps, 4. FVGs.
This gives the trader a toolkit for determining market structure and shifts in market structure to help determine a bull or bear bias, whether it be short-term, med-term or long-term.
This indicator also helps traders in determining liquidity targets: wether they be voids/gaps (FVGS) or old highs/lows+ typical sweep distances.
Finally, the incorporation of HTF CHoCH levels printing on your LTF chart helps keep the bigger picture in mind and tells traders at a glance if they're above of below Custom HTF CHoCH up or CHoCH down (these HTF CHoCHs can be anything from Hourly up to Monthly).
//Nomenclature:
CHoCH = Change of Character
STH/STL = short-term high or low
MTH/MTL = medium-term high or low
LTH/LTL = long-term high or low
FVG = Fair value gap
CE = consequent encroachement (the midline of a FVG)
~~~ The Four components of this indicator ~~~
1. CHoCHs:
•Best demonstrated in the below charts. This was a method taught to me by @Icecold_crypto. Once a 3 bar fractal pivot gets broken, we count backwards the consecutive higher lows or lower highs, then identify the CHoCH as the opposite end of the candle which ended the consecutive backwards count. This CHoCH (UP or DOWN) then becomes a level to watch, if price passes through it in earnest a trader would consider shifting their bias as market structure is deemed to have shifted.
•HTF CHoCHs: Option to print Higher time frame chochs (default on) of user input HTF. This prints only the last UP choch and only the last DOWN choch from the input HTF. Solid line by default so as to distinguish from local/chart-time CHoCHs. Can be any Higher timeframe you like.
•Show on table: toggle on show table(above/below) option to show in table cells (top right): is price above the latest HTF UP choch, or is price below HTF DOWN choch (or is it sat between the two, in a state of 'uncertainty').
•Most recent CHoCHs which have not been met by price will extend 10 bars into the future.
• USER INPUTS: overall setting: SHOW CHOCHS | Set bars lookback number to limit historical Chochs. Set Live CHoCHs number to control the number of active recent chochs unmet by price. Toggle shrink chochs once hit to declutter chart and minimize old chochs to their origin bars. Set Multi-timeframe color override : to make Color choices auto-set to your preference color for each of 1m, 5m, 15m, H, 4H, D, W, M (where up and down are same color, but 'up' icon for up chochs and down icon for down chochs remain printing as normal)
2. Nested Pivot Highs & Lows; aka 'Pivot Highs & Lows (ST/MT/LT)'
•Based on a seperate, longer lookback/lookforward pivot calculation. Identifies Pivot highs and lows with a 'spikeyness' filter (filtering out weak/rounded/unimpressive Pivot highs/lows)
•by 'nested' I mean that the pivot highs are graded based on whether a pivot high sits between two lower pivot highs or vice versa.
--for example: STH = normal pivot. MTH is pivot high with a lower STH on either side. LTH is a pivot high with a lower MTH on either side. Same applies to pivot lows (STL/MTL/LTL)
•This is a useful way to measure the significance of a high or low. Both in terms of how much it might be typically swept by (see later) and what it would imply for HTF bias were we to break through it in earnest (more than just a sweep).
• USER INPUTS: overall setting: show pivot highs & lows | Bars lookback (historical pivots to show) | Pivots: lookback/lookforward length (determines the scale of your pivot highs/lows) | toggle on/off Apply 'Spikeyness' filter (filters out smooth/unimpressive pivot highs/lows). Set Spikeyness index (determines the strength of this filter if turned on) | Individually toggle on each of STH, MTH, LTH, STL, MTL, LTL along with their label text type , and size . Toggle on/off line for each of these Pivot highs/lows. | Set label spacer (atr multiples above / below) | set line style and line width
3. Grade Sweeps:
•These are directly related to the nested pivots described above. Most assets will have a typical sweep distance. I've added some of my expected sweeps for various assets in the indicator tooltips.
--i.e. Eur/Usd 10-20-30 pips is a typical 'grade' sweep. S&P HKEX:5 - HKEX:10 is a typical grade sweep.
•Each of the ST/MT/LT pivot highs and lows have optional user defined grade sweep boxes which paint above until filled (or user option for historical filled boxes to remain).
•Numbers entered into sweep input boxes are auto converted into appropriate units (i.e. pips for FX, $ or 'handles' for indices, $ for Crypto. Very low $ units can be input for low unit value crypto altcoins.
• USER INPUTS: overall setting: Show sweep boxes | individually select colors of each of STH, MTH, LTH, STL, MTL, LTL sweep boxes. | Set Grade sweep ($/pips) number for each of ST, MT, LT. This auto converts between pips and $ (i.e. FX vs Indices/Crypto). Can be a float as small or large as you like ($0.000001 to HKEX:1000 ). | Set box text position (horizontal & vertical) and size , and color . | Set Box width (bars) (for non extended/ non-auto-terminating at price boxes). | toggle on/off Extend boxes/lines right . | Toggle on/off Shrink Grade sweeps on fill (they will disappear in realtime when filled/passed through)
4. FVGs:
•Fair Value gaps. Represent 'naked' candle bodies where the wicks to either side do not meet, forming a 'gap' of sorts which has a tendency to fill, or at least to fill to midline (CE).
•These are ICT concepts. 'UP' FVGS are known as BISIs (Buyside imbalance, sellside inefficiency); 'DOWN' FVGs are known as SIBIs (Sellside imbalance, buyside inefficiency).
• USER INPUTS: overall setting: show FVGs | Bars lookback (history). | Choose to display: 'UP' FVGs (BISI) and/or 'DOWN FVGs (SIBI) . Choose to display the midline: CE , the color and the line style . Choose threshold: use CE (as opposed to Full Fill) |toggle on/off Shrink FVG on fill (CE hit or Full fill) (declutter chart/see backtesting history)
////••Alerts (general notes & cautionary notes)::
•Alerts are optional for most of the levels printed by this indicator. Set them via the three dots on indicator status line.
•Due to dynamic repainting of levels, alerts should be used with caution. Best use these alerts either for Higher time frame levels, or when closely monitoring price.
--E.g. You may set an alert for down-fill of the latest FVG below; but price will keep marching up; form a newer/higher FVG, and the alert will trigger on THAT FVG being down-filled (not the original)
•Available Alerts:
-FVG(BISI) cross above threshold(CE or full-fill; user choice). Same with FVG(SIBI).
-HTF last CHoCH down, cross below | HTF last CHoCH up, cross above.
-last CHoCH down, cross below | last CHoCH up, cross above.
-LTH cross above, MTH cross above, STH cross above | LTL cross below, MTL cross below, STL cross below.
////••Formatting (general)::
•all table text color is set from the 'Pivot highs & Lows (ST, MT, LT)' section (for those of you who prefer black backgrounds).
•User choice of Line-style, line color, line width. Same with Boxes. Icon choice for chochs. Char or label text choices for ST/MT/LT pivot highs & lows.
////••User Inputs (general):
•Each of the 4 components of this indicator can be easily toggled on/off independently.
•Quite a lot of options and toggle boxes, as described in full above. Please take your time and read through all the tooltips (hover over '!' icon) to get an idea of formatting options.
•Several Lookback periods defined in bars to control how much history is shown for each of the 4 components of this indicator.
•'Shrink on fill' settings on FVGs and CHoCHs: Basically a way to declutter chart; toggle on/off depending on if you're backtesting or reading live price action.
•Table Display: applies to ST/MT/LT pivot highs and to HTF CHoCHs; Toggle table on or off (in part or in full)
////••Credits:
•Credit to ICT (Inner Circle Trader) for some of the concepts used in this indicator (FVGS & CEs; Grade sweeps).

Overview
Equilibrium is a tool designed to measure the buying & selling pressure in the market. It is depicted as a “pressure gauge” that automatically adjusts as new candles are formed, providing a real-time indication of who's on top right now, buyers or sellers?
Background
Supply & demand is considered to be the main driving force of our modern economies, where the interaction between the two parties(sellers & buyers) leads to the determination of the fair price for a given product. Stock markets are no exception, they operate very much based around the idea of supply & demand.
In simple terms, supply refers to the availability of a product, and demand is the willingness of consumers to buy that product at a given price. It is obvious that different vendors may sell the same product at slightly different prices, and similarly, different customers may choose to buy the same product from different vendors at varying prices. The idea is that the price is allowed to fluctuate from time to time, but in a free & fair market, the price will eventually settle down to a value that makes both the parties happy. Such a state is known as the “Price-Equilibrium”, and this process is also referred to as the market mechanism.
This is the basic assumption around which this tool is based, the market is always trying to move towards a state of equilibrium.
Calculations
This tool takes a simplistic approach to estimate the degree of imbalance between buyers & sellers, here’s a brief summary of how the pressure is calculated:
- We compute the total lengths of red & green candles for a given period, i.e. price range multiplied by the volume for that candle.
- Then the distribution of each type of candle is calculated.
- Assuming more red candles denote more selling pressure, and green candles denote buying pressure, the gauge is populated cell by cell.
- As the pressure on one side increases, the intensity of the cell color also increases, signifying the extent to which one side is dominating.
How to use it
- The indicator is designed as a pressure gauge that moves up(vertical alignment) or to the right(horizontal alignment) as the buying pressure increases, and moves down or to the left as the selling pressure increases. How it is to be used & applied, that completely depends on your trading methodology. But, the general idea is that we expect the market to be in a state of equilibrium, and if that is not the case the tool will highlight that, and this is also where the opportunity lies to find suitable trades.
- Just by having an idea about who’s dominating the market currently, a trader can also pick sides wisely. Remember, the market is always striving to come back a state of equilibrium, and a slight imbalance can indicate the current trend, and more importantly, who’s more likely to make the next move.
User Settings
The tool offers some minimal configurations for the end user:
- You can choose to display the actual percentage value in the gauge(Show Text).
- You can adjust colors that denote buyers & sellers.
- You can change the layout of gauge, default is vertical(right side of the screen).
- Last, and most important, you can adjust the number of candles to traverse for calculating the pressure. Default is 50, can go upto 1000.

Counters RatioCounters Ratio
This is an oscillator like indicator.
Bubbles are used to show the intensity with which buyers overtake sellers or vice-versa.
Bigger bubbles would indicate an oversold or overbought condition, when there is more imbalance between sell volume and buy volume .
They may appear sometimes on low volume - this may be a weak overbought or oversold indication.
The big bubbles that appear on significant volume could be used to find divergences with price.
Multiple instances of the indicator can be combined to get a bigger picture.
In the indicator's settings, a ratio limit can be set for the overbought or oversold condition.
Alerts for counters imbalance can be set to fire whenever the condition is satisfied.

Rapid ICT Suite - MTF Concepts & iFVGTitle: Rapid ICT Suite - MTF Concepts & iFVG
Overview
Unlock a new level of market analysis with the Rapid ICT Suite, a comprehensive, all-in-one indicator designed for the discerning price action trader. This powerful tool merges two distinct analytical engines into one seamless experience, allowing you to overlay critical Higher Timeframe (HTF) market structure onto your current chart while simultaneously tracking real-time Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and their inversions (iFVGs).
Whether you are a scalper needing to respect 1H structure, a day trader aligning with the 4H bias, or a swing trader mapping the daily trend, this indicator provides the clarity and context you need to make higher-probability trading decisions. It was built from the ground up to solve common issues traders face, delivering stable, precise, and flexible analysis.
The Strategy: Targeting IRL with iFVG Entries
The Destination (The "Why"): Internal Range Liquidity (IRL)
On a Higher Timeframe (HTF), we will identify major Internal Range Liquidity (IRL) zones. In the context of ICT, IRL simply refers to unmitigated Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) that exist within a broader trading range.
These HTF FVGs act as powerful magnets for price. The market will often seek out these zones to rebalance before continuing its next major move. By plotting these on our chart, we establish a clear directional bias and a high-probability target. Our indicator will now label these HTF FVG boxes as "IRL".
The Entry Signal (The "How"): Inverted Fair Value Gaps (iFVG)
Once we have our HTF IRL target, we drop down to our Lower Timeframe (LTF) for execution.
We wait for price to create an Inverted Fair Value Gap (iFVG). An iFVG is a regular FVG that has failed and been traded through, signifying a shift in momentum.
An iFVG appearing on the LTF provides a high-precision entry signal to take a trade in the direction of the HTF IRL zone. It's our confirmation that the market is likely now making its move towards that destination.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Order Blocks (Boxes): Automatically identify and plot key HTF demand and supply zones (Order Blocks) onto your chart.
Multi-Timeframe Fair Value Gaps (Boxes): See where HTF imbalances exist, giving you a clear map of institutional reference points and potential targets.
Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Pools (Boxes): Pinpoint where buy-side and sell-side liquidity is likely resting, based on clusters of old highs and lows.
Current Timeframe FVG & iFVG (Lines/Labels): A second, independent engine tracks FVGs on your chosen timeframe, monitors them for mitigation, and automatically identifies when an FVG has been inverted (iFVG), a crucial shift in market dynamics.
The "Rapid" Advantage: Solving Trader Frustrations
This indicator was engineered to overcome three of the most common problems with technical indicators:
1. ✅ No More Flickering or "Ghost" Signals
The Problem: Many indicators show signals on the live, forming candle. This causes zones or signals to appear and disappear ("flicker"), leading to confusion and false entries.
The Solution: The Rapid ICT Suite uses 100% confirmed, closed-candle data for all its calculations (OB, FVG, and Liquidity). A zone will only appear on your chart after the price action that confirms it is complete. This means every signal is stable, reliable, and non-repainting.
2. ✅ Frame-Perfect, Precise Placement
The Problem: Indicators that use lookback logic often draw their signals one candle too late, causing a visual disconnect between the price pattern and the signal itself.
The Solution: We have corrected this common flaw. Every box and line is drawn starting from the exact confirmation candle of the pattern. This frame-perfect precision is critical for accurate analysis and planning your entries.
3. ✅ The Dual Analysis Engine: Uncluttered & Flexible
The Problem: Trying to analyze multiple timeframes at once can lead to cluttered charts and mental overload .
The Solution: This suite contains two independent parts that you can control separately.
Part 1 gives you the macro context—the HTF structure where big moves originate.
Part 2 gives you the micro details—the real-time FVG and iFVG story on your trading timeframe.
Use them together for a complete picture, or toggle one off to focus on a specific aspect of your strategy. This flexibility keeps your workspace clean and your analysis sharp.
How to Use & Settings Explained
The indicator settings are neatly organized into two main parts.
Part 1: MTF Concepts (OB, FVG, Liq)
This section controls the Higher Timeframe boxes that are overlaid onto your current chart.
Higher-TF for OB/FVG/Liq: This is the most important setting. Select the higher timeframe you want to analyze. For example, if you are trading on the 15-minute chart, you might set this to 240 (4-Hour) to see the key 4H zones.
Show Order-Blocks / FVGs / Liquidity: Simple toggles to turn each type of HTF zone on or off.
Max... Count: Controls how many of the most recent zones are displayed on the chart, preventing clutter from old, irrelevant zones.
Part 2: FVG & iFVG (Lines/Labels)
This section controls the second engine, which analyzes FVGs and iFVGs on its own selected timeframe.
Timeframe for FVG/iFVG: Choose the timeframe for this analysis. You can leave it blank to use your current chart's timeframe, or set it to a specific one.
Mitigation Type & Mitigation %: A powerful feature to define when an FVG is considered "used up."
Type: Choose if mitigation is counted from the candle's Wick or Close.
Percent: Set how far price must retrace into an FVG (e.g., 50%) before it is considered mitigated and the lines are removed from your chart.
FVG/iFVG Count: Controls how many of the most recent FVG/iFVG zones are displayed.
Style & Color Settings: Fully customize the appearance of the lines and labels to match your chart theme.
Final Words
This indicator was built to provide actionable clarity. By understanding the interplay between higher-timeframe structure and current price action, you can significantly enhance your trading edge. Thank you for choosing the Rapid ICT Suite.
Happy trading!

cd_cisd_market_CxHi Traders,
Overview:
Many traders follow market structure to identify the market direction and seek trade opportunities in line with the trend.
However, markings derived from user-defined inputs can create different structures, depending on personal choices. For instance, choosing a pivot distance of 3 instead of 2 alters the structure, even though the chart remains the same. Ideally, the structure should remain consistent.
"Change in State Delivery" ( CISD ) is a widely accepted concept among traders and is considered a significant indicator of market direction based on the gain/loss of CISD levels.
In this indicator, CISD is selected as the primary criterion for marking market structure, eliminating the influence of user-dependent variations.
Here is a summary of the key logic and rules applied:
• When the price forms a new high/low, that level is only considered a pivot if a CISD has occurred.
• A bullish CISD is always followed by a bearish CISD, and vice versa.
• Pivot points form the internal structure.
• The internal structure is used to interpret the swing structure.
• Probabilities are derived from internal structure patterns.
________________________________________

How is CISD determined?
As is commonly known:
• When price makes a new high, the opening level of the first candle in the consecutive bullish candle sequence is marked.
• When price makes a new low, the opening of the first candle in the consecutive bearish sequence is marked.
• If there’s only one candle in the sequence, its opening level is used.
In a bullish market, losing a bearish CISD level (i.e., a close below it) or in a bearish market, gaining a bullish CISD level (i.e., a close above it) is interpreted as a potential shift in buyer-seller dominance and a possible market reversal.

How are internal (pivot) levels determined?
• When price closes below a bearish CISD level, the highest candle's high becomes a pivot high (PH).
• When price closes above a bullish CISD level, the lowest candle's low becomes a pivot low (PL).
• If the new PH is above the previous PH, it’s labeled as HH (Higher High); otherwise, LH (Lower High).
• If the new PL is below the previous PL, it’s labeled as LL (Lower Low); otherwise, HL (Higher Low).
________________________________________
Internal Market Structure:
• A series of HHs indicates a bullish internal structure.
• A series of LLs indicates a bearish internal structure.
________________________________________
Swing (Main) Market Structure:
Using internal pivots and previous swing levels, the main market structure is derived.
• A new swing high (SH) requires the price to move above the previous SH.
• A new swing low (SL) requires the price to move below the previous SL.

Probability Calculation:
Pivot levels forming the internal structure are coded as five-element sequences.
There are 64 possible combinations of such sequences made from consecutive PH and PL values.
Each pattern’s frequency from its starting candle is tracked.
To make it more understandable:
For example, after the four-sequence “HH, LL, LH,HL”, either HH or LH might follow.
The table shows the statistical likelihood of both possible outcomes for the most recent four-element sequence on the chart.

How reliable is it?
To assess reliability, results are calculated from the beginning using:
Success Rate (Suc. Rt) = Number of Correct Predictions / Total Predictions
This value is added to the table for reference.
It’s important to note that no statistical outcome guarantees certainty—every result offers a different interpretation. What truly matters is to avoid getting stopped out 😊.

Golden Pocket SyndicateGPS – Golden Pocket Syndicate
The GPS indicator is a multi-tool designed for active traders who focus on reversals, precision scalping, and high-confluence entries. This script combines key market structure elements, dynamic support/resistance mapping, and real-time volume + liquidation metrics to help traders identify optimal entries based on supply/demand imbalances and liquidity targeting.
Rather than replicating existing open-source tools, GPS blends custom logic for:
• Golden Pocket Zone Mapping: Automatically highlights key Fibonacci retracement areas (0.618–0.65) across daily, weekly, monthly levels, including previous session extensions.
• Liquidation Clusters & Pre-Liq Zones: Real-time detection and visual display of high-risk liquidation areas using volume acceleration and candle-body displacement data.
• Reversal Confirmation Signals: Combines volume divergence, VWAP reclaims, and spiderline rejections with custom-coded “Snipe Points” that alert traders to potential exhaustion in trend.
• Market Sentiment Integration: Optional overlays include real-time bar color shifts based on bias change (from trend to range) and dynamic volume overlays.
This indicator is intended for traders who scalp or swing but require additional confirmation layers to prevent premature entries. It works well on 5m–4H charts and is especially powerful when paired with other manual tools such as trendlines, order blocks, or market structure breaks.
Volume in Candle (Buy/Sell)🔍 How It Works
The indicator estimates Buy volume when the candle closes higher than it opens.
It estimates Sell volume when the candle closes lower than it opens.
The result is shown as a yellow label below each candle, displaying:
🟢 B: Volume driven by buyers
🔴 S: Volume driven by sellers
💡 Use Case
Quickly assess bullish vs. bearish strength inside each bar.
Identify volume imbalances that may indicate reversals or continuations.
Combine with your existing strategy or use as a standalone volume confirmation tool.
⚙️ No Configuration Needed
Just add to your chart and let the labels show you how volume is distributed inside each candle – no setup, tuning, or clutter.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This script uses a simplified approximation of buy/sell volume based on candle structure. It does not represent actual order flow or exchange-reported data.ume driven by sellers
