AMD [TakingProphets]Overview
The AMD indicator is a real-time, high-resolution tool designed for traders following ICT methodology who want a clear visualization of higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly on their lower timeframe charts.
It overlays current HTF structure, including open, high, low, and close projections, allowing traders to align intraday decisions with institutional price delivery — all without switching timeframes.
Concept & Background
In ICT concepts, market behavior often follows a pattern of accumulation, manipulation, and distribution. Understanding these phases is essential for anticipating when price is likely to expand or reverse.
AMD automates this process by:
-Overlaying HTF candles directly on your lower timeframe chart.
-Projecting live levels like the current open, high, low, and close to map out evolving bias.
-Helping traders see whether price is accumulating orders, engineering liquidity sweeps, or distributing aggressively.
Key Features
Live HTF Candle Overlay
-Displays the full HTF candle — body, wicks, and directional bias — on your active chart in real time.
-Perfect for traders aligning intraday setups with broader HTF context.
Dynamic HTF Price Projections
-Plots the evolving open, high, low, and close for the current HTF candle.
-Each projection can be customized by color, style, labels, and visibility to fit your workflow.
Full Customization Control
-Adjust candle body widths, wick styles, and transparency.
-Configure projection lines and time labels in both 12h and 24h formats.
-Includes an optional Info Box showing instrument, timeframe, and session context.
Session Timing & Labeling
-Smart timestamping marks the start and close of each HTF candle.
-Helps traders anticipate potential expansions or reversals during killzones or liquidity events.
How to Use It
Select Your HTF Context
-Choose any timeframe overlay (e.g., 1H, 4H, 1D) to match your trading model.
-Monitor Live HTF Levels
-Watch how price interacts with current HTF highs, lows, and equilibrium levels in real time.
-Integrate With ICT Concepts
-Use alongside tools like SMT divergence, Order Blocks, or Liquidity Levels for confirmation and context.
-Refine Intraday Entries
-Check whether price is expanding in your favor before entering positions.
Best Practices
Combine AMD with ICT killzone sessions to monitor HTF behavior during high-liquidity periods.
Use it alongside correlated SMT divergence tools for stronger directional bias confirmation.
Who It’s For
Scalpers anchoring quick entries to HTF sentiment.
Intraday traders syncing 5m/15m setups with 1H/4H context.
Swing traders monitoring HTF ranges without switching charts.
Educators & analysts needing clean visual overlays for teaching and content creation.
Why It’s Useful
AMD doesn’t provide trading signals or predictive guarantees. Instead, it offers a clean, structured view of HTF price delivery — enabling traders to understand institutional intent as it unfolds and manage their execution with greater confidence.

Simple Liquidity Zones [Supertrade]🔎 What this indicator does
This indicator is designed to highlight liquidity sweep zones on the chart.
• A liquidity sweep occurs when price briefly breaks above a recent swing high or below a recent swing low, but fails to close beyond it.
• Such behavior often indicates that price has taken liquidity (stop orders resting above highs or below lows) and may reverse.
The indicator marks these events as bullish or bearish liquidity zones:
• Bullish Zone (green) → Price swept a swing low and closed back above it (possible bullish reversal area).
• Bearish Zone (red) → Price swept a swing high and closed back below it (possible bearish reversal area).
These zones are drawn as shaded horizontal bands that extend forward in time, providing visual areas where liquidity grabs occurred.
________________________________________
⚙️ How calculations are made
The indicator does not use moving averages or smoothing.
Instead, it works with raw price action:
1. Swing Detection → It checks the highest high and lowest low of the past N bars (swing length).
2. Sweep Logic →
o A bearish sweep happens if the high breaks above the previous swing high, but the close returns below that level.
o A bullish sweep happens if the low breaks below the previous swing low, but the close returns above that level.
3. Zone Creation → When a sweep is detected, a shaded zone is drawn just above/below the swing level.
4. Persistence → Zones extend into the future until replaced by new ones (or optionally until price fully trades through them).
This makes the calculations simple, transparent, and responsive to actual market structure without lag.
________________________________________
📈 How it helps traders
This tool helps traders by:
• Visualizing liquidity areas → Shows where price previously swept liquidity and may act as support/resistance.
• Identifying reversals → Helps spot potential turning points after liquidity grabs.
• Risk management → Zones highlight areas where stops may be targeted, useful for positioning stop-loss orders.
• Confluence tool → Works best when combined with other strategies such as order blocks, trendlines, or volume analysis.
⚠️ Note: Like all indicators, this should not be used in isolation. It provides context, not guaranteed trade signals.
________________________________________
🏦 Markets & Timeframes
• Works across all markets (crypto, forex, stocks, indices, commodities).
• Particularly effective in high-liquidity environments where stop-hunting is common (e.g., forex majors, BTC/ETH, S&P500).
• Timeframes:
o Lower timeframes (1m–15m) → Scalpers can spot intraday liquidity sweeps.
o Higher timeframes (1H–1D) → Swing traders can identify major liquidity pools.

Wickless Tap Signals Wickless Tap Signals — TradingView Indicator (v6)
A precision signal-only tool that marks BUY/SELL events when price “retests” the base of a very strong impulse candle (no wick on the retest side) in the direction of trend.
What it does (in plain English)
Finds powerful impulse candles:
Bull case: a green candle with no lower wick (its open ≈ low).
Bear case: a red candle with no upper wick (its open ≈ high).
Confirms trend with an EMA filter:
Only looks for bullish bases while price is above the EMA.
Only looks for bearish bases while price is below the EMA.
Waits for the retest (“tap”):
Later, if price revisits the base of that wickless candle
Bullish: taps the candle’s low/open → BUY signal
Bearish: taps the candle’s high/open → SELL signal
Optional level “consumption” so each base can trigger one signal, not many.
The idea: a wickless impulse often marks strong initiative order flow. The first retest of that base frequently acts as a springboard (bull) or ceiling (bear).
Exact rules (formal)
Let tick = syminfo.mintick, tol = tapTicks * tick.
Trend filter
inUp = close > EMA(lenEMA)
inDn = close < EMA(lenEMA)
Wickless impulse candles (confirmed on bar close)
Bullish wickless: close > open and abs(low - open) ≤ tol
Bearish wickless: close < open and abs(high - open) ≤ tol
When such a candle closes with trend alignment:
Store bullTapLevel = low (for bull case) and its bar index.
Store bearTapLevel = high (for bear case) and its bar index.
Signals (must happen on a later bar than the origin)
BUY: low ≤ bullTapLevel + tol and inUp and bar_index > bullBarIdx
SELL: high ≥ bearTapLevel - tol and inDn and bar_index > bearBarIdx
One-shot option
If enabled, once a signal fires, the stored level is cleared so it won’t trigger again.
Inputs (Settings)
Trend EMA Length (lenEMA): Default 200.
Use 50–100 for intraday, 200 for swing/position.
Tap Tolerance (ticks) (tapTicks): Default 1.
Helps account for tiny feed discrepancies. Set 0 for strict equality.
One Signal per Level (oneShot): Default ON.
If OFF, multiple taps can create multiple signals.
Plot Tap Levels (plotLevels): Draws horizontal lines at active bases.
Show Pattern Labels (showLabels): Marks the origin wickless candles.
Plots & Visuals
EMA trend line for context.
Tap Levels:
Green line at bullish base (origin candle’s low/open).
Red line at bearish base (origin candle’s high/open).
Signals:
BUY: triangle-up below the bar on the tap.
SELL: triangle-down above the bar on the tap.
Labels (optional):
Marks the original wickless impulse candle that created each level.
Alerts
Two alert conditions are built in:
“BUY Signal” — fires when a bullish tap occurs.
“SELL Signal” — fires when a bearish tap occurs.
How to set:
Add the indicator to your chart.
Click Alerts (⏰) → Condition = this indicator.
Choose BUY Signal or SELL Signal.
Set your alert frequency and delivery method.
Recommended usage
Timeframes: Works on any; start with 5–15m intraday, or 1H–1D for swing.
Markets: Equities, futures, FX, crypto. For thin/illiquid assets, consider a slightly larger Tap Tolerance.
Confluence ideas (optional, but helpful):
Higher-timeframe trend agreeing with your chart timeframe.
Volume surge on the origin wickless candle.
S/R, order blocks, or SMC structures near the tap level.
Avoid major news moments when slippage is high.
No-repaint behavior
Origin patterns are detected only on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed), so bases are created with confirmed data.
Signals come after the origin bar, on subsequent taps.
There is no lookahead; lines and shapes reflect information known at the time.
(As with all real-time indicators, an intrabar tap can trigger an alert during the live bar; the signal then remains if that condition held at bar close.)
Known limitations & design choices
Single active level per side: The script tracks only the most recent bullish base and most recent bearish base.
Want a queue of multiple simultaneous bases? That’s possible with arrays; ask and we’ll extend it.
Heikin Ashi / non-standard candles: Wick definitions change; for consistent behavior use regular OHLC candles.
Gaps: On large gaps, taps can occur instantly at the open. Consider one-shot ON to avoid rapid repeats.
This is an indicator, not a strategy: It does not place trades or compute PnL. For backtesting, we can convert it into a strategy with SL/TP logic (ATR or structure-based).
Practical tips
Tap Tolerance:
If you miss obvious taps by a hair, increase to 1–2 ticks.
For FX/crypto with tiny ticks, even 0 or 1 is often enough.
EMA length:
Shorten for faster signals; lengthen for cleaner trend selection.
Risk management (manual suggestion):
For BUY signals, consider a stop slightly below the tap level (or ATR-based).
For SELL signals, consider a stop slightly above the tap level.
Scale out or trail using structure or ATR.
Quick checklist
✅ Price above EMA → watch for a green no-lower-wick candle → store its low → BUY on tap.
✅ Price below EMA → watch for a red no-upper-wick candle → store its high → SELL on tap.
✅ Use Tap Tolerance to avoid missing precise touches by one tick.
✅ Consider One Signal per Level to keep trades uncluttered.
FAQ
Q: Why did I not get a signal even though price touched the level?
A: Check Tap Tolerance (maybe too strict), trend alignment at the tap bar, and that the tap happened after the origin candle. Also confirm you’re on regular candles.
Q: Can I see multiple bases at once?
A: This version tracks the latest bull and bear bases. We can extend to arrays to keep N recent bases per side.
Q: Will it repaint?
A: No. Bases form on confirmed closes, and signals only on later bars.
Q: Can I backtest it?
A: This is a study. Ask for the strategy variant and we’ll add entries, exits, SL/TP, and stats.
Titan Wick Zone IndicatorThe Titan Wick Zone Indicator visually highlights the upper and lower wick regions of each candlestick on your chart, helping traders instantly identify areas where price was aggressively rejected (top wick) or absorbed (bottom wick). The indicator fills the area above the candle body to the wick high in red (sell zone), and the area below the candle body to the wick low in green (buy zone), both with adjustable opacity for clear visibility.
How to Use:
Spot Rejection and Absorption:
The red-filled upper wick zone marks where upward price moves were sharply rejected by sellers, often indicating supply, resistance, or “stop hunt” zones.
The green-filled lower wick zone marks where downward price moves were absorbed by buyers, pointing to potential demand, support, or accumulation zones.
Enhance Price Action Analysis:
Use these zones to avoid entering trades at price extremes, spot potential reversals, and find areas of confluence with support/resistance, Fibonacci levels, or order blocks.
Risk Management:
The indicator helps visualize where liquidity hunts or false breakouts may occur, so you can better place stop losses outside of volatile wick zones.
Ideal For:
Price action traders, scalpers, and swing traders seeking a visual edge in spotting supply/demand dynamics, liquidity zones, and wick-driven traps.

Fibonacci Optimal Entry Zone [OTE] (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Fibonacci Optimal Entry Zone (Zeiierman) is a high-precision market structure tool designed to help traders identify ideal entry zones during trending markets. Built on the principles of Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Fibonacci retracements, this indicator highlights key areas where price is most likely to react — specifically within the "Golden Zone" (between the 50% and 61.8% retracement).
It tracks structural pivot shifts (CHoCH) and dynamically adjusts Fibonacci levels based on real-time swing tracking. Whether you're trading breakouts, pullbacks, or optimal entries, this tool brings unparalleled clarity to structure-based strategies.
Ideal for traders who rely on confluence, this indicator visually synchronizes swing highs/lows, market structure shifts, Fibonacci retracement levels, and trend alignment — all without clutter or lag.
⚪ The Structural Assumption
Price moves in waves, but key retracements often lead to continuation or reversal — especially when aligned with structure breaks and trend shifts.
The Optimal Entry Zone captures this behavior by anchoring Fibonacci levels between recent swing extremes. The most powerful area — the Golden Zone — marks where institutional re-entry is likely, providing traders with a sniper-like roadmap to structure-based entries.
█ How It Works
⚪ Structure Tracking Engine
At its core, the indicator detects pivots and classifies trend direction:
Structure Period – Determines the depth of pivots used to detect swing highs/lows.
CHoCH – Break of structure logic identifies where the trend shifts or continues, marked visually on the chart.
Bullish & Bearish Modes – Independently toggle uptrend and downtrend detection and styling.
⚪ Fibonacci Engine
Upon each confirmed structural shift, Fibonacci retracement levels are projected between swing extremes:
Custom Levels – Choose which retracements (0.50, 0.618, etc.) are shown.
Real-Time Adjustments – When "Swing Tracker" is enabled, levels and labels update dynamically as price forms new swings.
Example:
If you disable the Swing Tracker, the Golden Level is calculated using the most recent confirmed swing high and low.
If you enable the Swing Tracker, the Golden Level is calculated from the latest swing high or low, making it more adaptive as the trend evolves in real time.
█ How to Use
⚪ Structure-Based Entry
Wait for CHoCH events and use the resulting Fibonacci projection to identify entry points. Enter trades as price taps into the Golden Zone, especially when confluence forms with swing structure or order blocks.
⚪ Real-Time Reaction Tracking
Enable Swing Tracker to keep the tool live — constantly updating zones as price shifts. This is especially useful for scalpers or intraday traders who rely on fresh swing zones.
█ Settings
Structure Period – Number of bars used to define swing pivots. Larger values = stronger structure.
Swing Tracker – Auto-updates fib levels as new highs/lows form.
Show Previous Levels – Keep older fib zones on chart or reset with each structure shift.

Dynamic Liquidity Depth [BigBeluga]
Dynamic Liquidity Depth
A liquidity mapping engine that reveals hidden zones of market vulnerability. This tool simulates where potential large concentrations of stop-losses may exist — above recent highs (sell-side) and below recent lows (buy-side) — by analyzing real price behavior and directional volume. The result is a dynamic two-sided volume profile that highlights where price is most likely to gravitate during liquidation events, reversals, or engineered stop hunts.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Two-Sided Liquidity Profiles:
Plots two separate profiles on the chart — one above price for potential sell-side liquidity , and one below price for potential buy-side liquidity . Each profile reflects the volume distribution across binned zones derived from historical highs and lows.
Real Stop Zone Simulation:
Each profile is offset from the current high or low using an ATR-based buffer. This simulates where traders might cluster their stop-losses above swing highs (short stops) or below swing lows (long stops).
Directional Volume Analysis:
Buy-side volume is accumulated only from bullish candles (close > open), while sell-side volume is accumulated only from bearish candles (close < open). This directional filtering enhances accuracy by capturing genuine pressure zones.
Dynamic Volume Heatmap:
Each liquidity bin is rendered as a horizontal box with a color gradient based on volume intensity:
- Low activity bins are shaded lightly.
- High-volume zones appear more vividly in red (sell) or lime (buy).
- The maximum volume bin in each profile is emphasized with a brighter fill and a volume label.
Extended POC Zones:
The Point of Control (PoC) — the bin with the most volume — is extended backwards across the entire lookback period to mark critical resistance (sell-side) or support (buy-side) levels.
Total Volume Summary Labels:
At the center of each profile, a summary label displays Total Buy Liquidity and Total Sell Liquidity volume.
This metric helps assess directional imbalance — when buy liquidity is dominant, the market may favor upward continuation, and vice versa.
Customizable Profile Granularity:
You can fine-tune both Resolution (Bins) and Offset Distance to adjust how far profiles are displaced from price and how many levels are calculated within the ATR range.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates an ATR-based buffer above highs and below lows to define the top and bottom of the liquidity zones.
Using a user-defined lookback period, it scans historical candles and divides the buffered zones into bins.
Each bin checks if bullish (or bearish) candles pass through it based on price wicks and body.
Volume from valid candles is summed into the corresponding bin.
When volume exists in a bin, a horizontal box is drawn with a width scaled by relative volume strength.
The bin with the highest volume is highlighted and optionally extended backward as a zone of importance.
Total buy/sell liquidity is displayed with a summary label at the side of the profile.
🔵 USAGE/b]
Identify Stop Hunt Zones: High-volume clusters near swing highs/lows are likely liquidation zones targeted during fakeouts.
Fade or Follow Reactions: Price hitting a high-volume bin may reverse (fade opportunity) or break with strength (confirmation breakout).
Layer with Other Tools: Combine with market structure, order blocks, or trend filters to validate entries near liquidity.
Adjust Offset for Sensitivity: Use higher offset to simulate wider stop placement; use lower for tighter scalping zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Dynamic Liquidity Depth transforms raw price and volume into a spatial map of liquidity. By revealing areas where stop orders are likely hidden, it gives traders insight into price manipulation zones, potential reversal levels, and breakout traps. Whether you're hunting for traps or trading with the flow, this tool equips you to navigate liquidity with precision.

US30 Smart Money 5M/4H Strategy🧠 How It Works
✅ 1. 4H Trend Bias Detection
Uses the 4-hour chart (internally) to determine if the market is in an uptrend or downtrend.
Background turns green for bullish trend, red for bearish trend.
This helps filter trades — only take longs during uptrend, shorts during downtrend.
✅ 2. Liquidity Sweeps (Stop Hunts) on 5M
Highlights candles that break previous highs/lows and then reverse (typical of institutional stop raids).
Draws a shaded red box above sweep-high candles and green box under sweep-lows.
These indicate key reversal zones.
✅ 3. Order Block Zones
Detects bullish/bearish engulfing patterns after liquidity sweeps.
Draws a supply or demand zone box extending forward.
These zones show where institutions likely placed large orders.
✅ 4. FVG Midpoint from 30-Min Chart
Detects Fair Value Gaps (imbalances) on the 30-minute chart.
Plots a line at the midpoint of the gap (EQ level), which is often revisited for entries or rejections.
✅ 5. Buy/Sell Signals (Non-Repainting)
Buy = 4H uptrend + 5M liquidity sweep low + bullish engulfing candle.
Sell = 4H downtrend + 5M liquidity sweep high + bearish engulfing.
Prints green “BUY” or red “SELL” label on the chart — these do not repaint.
📈 How to Use It
Wait for trend bias — only take trades in the direction of the 4H trend.
Watch for liquidity sweep boxes — these hint a stop hunt just occurred.
Look for a signal label (BUY/SELL) — confirms entry criteria.
Use FVG EQ lines & Order Block zones as confluence or targets.
Take trades after NY open (9:30 AM EST) for best momentum.
ICT Turtle Soup (Liquidity Reversal)ICT Turtle Soup — Liquidity Reversal Detection
Classic Liquidity Trap Reversal Strategy for Smart Money Traders
This indicator implements the ICT Turtle Soup concept — a classic liquidity-based reversal pattern — which occurs when price runs above or below a recent swing level to grab liquidity, then sharply reverses. This pattern is commonly used in Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Inner Circle Trader (ICT) strategies to anticipate false breakouts and high-probability reversals.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Identifies Swing Highs & Lows
Detects recent swing highs and lows using a customizable lookback period.
Tracks Liquidity Grabs
A bearish Turtle Soup setup is triggered when price breaks above a recent swing high but closes back below it.
A bullish Turtle Soup setup is triggered when price breaks below a recent swing low but closes back above it.
These conditions often signal liquidity traps, where price sweeps resting orders before reversing.
Plots Signals Directly on the Chart
Turtle Soup setups are marked with 🐢🔻 (bearish) and 🐢🔺 (bullish) labels.
Optional full-text labels can also be displayed for clarity and journaling.
Includes Alert Conditions
Alerts can be enabled to notify you of bullish or bearish Turtle Soup reversals in real-time.
⚙️ Customization Features:
Adjustable swing lookback period
Enable/disable Turtle Soup labels
Set label font size
Choose your preferred bullish/bearish signal colors
💡 How to Use:
Add this script to your chart (ideally on intraday timeframes such as 5m–15m).
Wait for a Turtle Soup signal near a key swing high/low or liquidity zone.
Combine with other confirmation tools (e.g., FVGs, Order Blocks, OTE) for stronger setups.
Use alerts to stay ahead of fast-moving reversals.
🧠 Why It Works:
Turtle Soup setups are rooted in liquidity theory — they exploit the market’s tendency to sweep obvious swing levels before reversing. These moves often trap retail traders and mark the beginning of Smart Money entries.
🔗 Best Used With:
Maximize the edge by combining this with other SMC tools:
✅ First FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector
✅ ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + OB + Fibonacci OTE Levels
✅ Liquidity Levels — Smart Swing Lows
Together, they create a complete ecosystem for identifying, confirming, and executing liquidity-driven trade setups with precision.
Wick Sweep EntriesWick Sweep Entry designed by Finweal Finance (Indicator Originator : Prajyot Mahajan) :
This Indicator is specially designed for Nifty, Sensex and Banknifty Options Buying. This works well on Expiry Days.
Setup Timeframe : 5m and 1m.
Entry Criteria :
For Long/CE :
Wait for Sweep of 5m Candle Low with next 5m Candle but you do not wait for the next 5 minute candle to close, you enter directly whenever any 1 minute candle of next 5minute candle to close above the low of previous 5m Candle.
For Short/PE :
Wait for Sweep of 5m Candle High with next 5m Candle but you do not wait for the next 5 minute candle to close, you enter directly whenever any 1 minute candle of next 5minute candle to close below the High of previous 5m Candle.
Key notes :
1. As this is the Scalping High Frequency Strategy, it is to be used for scalping purpose only. You might have losses too so to avoid the noise in the market, i suggest you to use this strategy in the first 45 minutes to 1 hour of Indian Markets as this is a volatility Strategy.
2. Although Nifty and Banknifty are independent indices, they still show some reactions with each other, so if you spot a long entry on BNF and Short Entry on nifty then you will avoid taking the trade, you will take the trade only if there is a tandem activity or At least the other index is not showing opposite signal.
3. If target is not hit and you spot another entry, you will avoid taking the new entry.
The Indicator will automatically spot/plot the entry signal, all you need to do is enter as soon as 1minute candle closes either below prior 5 minute candle High for Short/PE or closes above 5minute low for Long/CE.
For Targets :
You Can Target recent minor pull back, FVG, or Order blocks.
Remember : This is a scalping strategy so don't hold trade for more than 4/5 1minute Candles
Volumatic Trend [ChartPrime]
A unique trend-following indicator that blends trend logic with volume visualization, offering a dynamic view of market momentum and activity. It automatically detects trend shifts and paints volume histograms at key levels, allowing traders to easily spot strength or weakness within trends.

Candle color is blended with a gradient based on volume intensity. This helps highlight where volume spikes occurred, making it easy to identify pressure points.
Volume Summary Labels:
A label at the end of each trend zone displays two critical values:
- Delta: net volume difference between bullish and bearish bars.
- Total: overall volume accumulated during the trend.
⯁ HOW TO USE
Monitor diamond markers to identify when a new trend begins.
Use volume histogram spikes to assess if the trend is supported by strong volume or lacking participation.
A high delta with strong total volume in a trend indicates institutional support.
Compare gradient strength of candles—brighter areas represent higher-volume trading activity.
Can be used alone or combined with other confirmation tools like structure breaks, liquidity sweeps, or order blocks.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Volumatic Trend gives you more than just trend direction—it provides insight into the force behind it. With volume-graded candles and real-time histogram overlays, traders can instantly assess whether a trend is backed by conviction or fading strength. A perfect tool for swing traders and intraday strategists looking to add volume context to their directional setups.
Quantum Motion Oscillator-QMO (TechnoBlooms)Quantum Motion Oscillator (QMO) is a momentum indicator designed for traders who demand precision. Combining multi-timeframe weighted linear regression with EMA crossovers, QMO offers a dynamic view of market momentum, helping traders anticipate trend shifts with greater accuracy.
This oscillator is inspired by quantum mechanics and wave theory, where market movement is seen as a series of probabilistic waves rather than rigid structures.
The histogram is plotted in proportion to the price movement of the candlesticks.
KEY FEATURES
1. Multi-Timeframe Histogram - Integrates 1 to 5 weighted linear regression averages, reducing lag while maintaining accuracy.
2. EMA Crossover Signal - Uses a Short and Long EMA to confirm trend shifts with minimal noise.
3. Adaptive Trend Analysis - Self-adjusting mechanics make QMO effective in both ranging and trending markets.
4. Scalable for Different Trading Styles - Works seamlessly for scalping, intraday, swing and position trading.
ADVANCED PROFESSIONAL INSIGHTS
1. Wave Dynamics and Market Flow - Inspired by wave mechanics, QMO reflects the energy accumulation and dissipation in price movements.
Expanding histogram waves = Strong momentum surge
Contracting waves = Momentum weakening, potential reversal zone.
2. Liquidity and Order Flow Applications - QMO works well alongside liquidity concepts and smart money techniques:
Combine with Fair Value Gaps & Order Blocks -> Enter when QMO signals align with liquidity zones.
Avoid False Moves - If price sweeps liquidity, but QMO momentum diverges, it is a sign of potential smart money manipulation.
Nirmal Fair Value GapsICT Fair Value Gaps
Trade Wisely
How a Fair Value Gap Works
Formation:
A Fair Value Gap occurs when a strong price movement (usually from institutional orders) creates an imbalance between buyers and sellers.
This is typically seen in a three-candle pattern, where the middle candle has a large body, and the two surrounding candles have wicks but little overlap with the middle candle’s range.
Identification:
The FVG is marked between the high of the first candle and the low of the third candle (for bullish gaps).
For bearish gaps, it’s the low of the first candle and the high of the third candle.
Market Behavior Around FVG:
Price often retraces into the gap before resuming its original direction.
This happens because the market seeks to "fill" the imbalance where few trades occurred.
Traders use FVGs as potential entry zones for trend continuation trades.
Trading Fair Value Gaps
In an Uptrend:
Look for bullish fair value gaps as potential support zones for buy entries.
Price may dip into the gap and then continue upward.
In a Downtrend:
Look for bearish fair value gaps as potential resistance zones for sell entries.
Price may retrace into the gap and then drop further.
Confluence Factors:
FVGs work best when combined with other strategies like order blocks, liquidity zones, or key Fibonacci levels.

SiCInside Sweep Close (ISC):
This concept captures a specific price action behavior and can help refine trading strategies for better precision. Here's a detailed explanation:
Inside:
The closing price of the candle stays within the range of the previous candle.
This indicates a containment of price action, suggesting indecision or preparation for a significant move.
Sweep:
The wick of the candle takes out (or "sweeps") the low (or high) of the previous candle.
This sweep can trigger stop-losses of retail traders or activate pending orders, often used by smart money strategies.
Close:
The candle ultimately closes inside the range of the previous candle.
This close signifies that the sweep was a liquidity grab rather than a genuine breakout, providing an actionable trading signal.
How ISC Can Be Used in Trading:
Liquidity Grab Recognition:
ISC can indicate when liquidity is swept from the market, making it an ideal entry point for traders anticipating a reversal or continuation.
Smart Money Concept (SMC) Synergy:
If you follow SMC principles, ISC aligns with key concepts like liquidity sweeps, order blocks, and mitigation zones.
Risk Management:
By identifying the ISC setup, you can place tighter stop-loss levels just outside the sweep, optimizing risk-reward ratios.
Entry Signals:
When you spot an ISC, you can enter trades at the close of the candle, anticipating a move in the direction opposite to the sweep.
Example of ISC in Action:
Imagine a bearish candle:
The wick sweeps the low of the previous candle, possibly triggering stop-losses.
However, the close stays inside the previous candle’s range.
This setup might indicate a reversal, where price moves upward after grabbing liquidity.
Why This Name Works:
It’s concise, professional, and directly linked to the trading action you’re describing.
The short form, ISC, is easy to remember and discuss within trading circles or while teaching others.
It ties into widely known concepts like smart money, price action, and liquidity sweeps, making it relatable yet unique.

Smart Money Setup 03 [TradingFinder] Minor OB & Trend Proof🔵 Introduction
The "Smart Money Concept" transcends mere technical trading strategies; it embodies a comprehensive philosophy elucidating market dynamics. Central to this concept is the acknowledgment that influential market participants manipulate price actions, presenting challenges for retail traders.
As a "retail trader", aligning your strategy with the behavior of "Smart Money," primarily market makers, is paramount. Understanding their trading patterns, which revolve around supply, demand, and market structure, forms the cornerstone of your approach. Consequently, decisions to enter trades should be informed by these considerations.
🟣 Important Note
In this setup, pattern formation revolves around the robustness of the "Stop Hunt" targeting retail traders.
When this stop hunt occurs, if the price tests below the minor pivot or above the minor pivot, a "Minor Order Block" is formed.
Similarly, if the price tests below the major pivot or above the major pivot, a "Major Order Block" is formed.
Since the price hasn't successfully broken the major pivots before breaking the Top or Bottom, it can be inferred that the minor pivots formed within a leg of price movement exhibit a "Range" structure.
For a deeper comprehension of this setup, refer to the accompanying visual aids below.

Smart Money Setup 02 [TradingFinder] Mitigated Major OB Proof🔵 Introduction
"Smart money" is money invested by knowledgeable individuals at the right time, and this investment can yield the highest returns.
The concept we focus on in this indicator is whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend. The market briefly takes a weak and reversal trend with "Minor BoS" without being able to break the major pivot.
In the next step, it returns to its main trend with a strong bullish move and continues its trend with a "Major BoS". The "order block" behind this rapid and powerful movement can be a valid order block for trading.
To better understand this setup, please refer to the explanations in the two images below.

Liquidity Grab Screener | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Liquidity Grab Screener! This screener can provide information about the latest liquidity grabs in up to 5 tickers. You can also customize the algorithm that finds the liquidity grabs and the styling of the screener.
Features of the new Liquidity Grab Screener :
Find Latest Liquidity Grabs Accross 5 Tickers
Price, Size, Status Information
Customizable Algoritm / Styling
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a bubble is plotted.
The bubble size is determined by the wick to body ratio of the candle.
This screener then finds liquidity grabs accross 5 different tickers, and shows the latest information about them.
Price -> The price when the liquidity grab happened.
Size -> Size of the liquidity grab, determined by the wick-body ratio.
Status -> Shows the elapsed time of the liquidity grab.
🚩UNIQUENESS
Liquidity grabs can be useful when determining candles that have executed a lot of market orders, and planning your trades accordingly. This screener will find liquidity grabs from up to 5 tickers and give information about their price, size and status. The screener also lets you customize the pivot length and the wick-body ratio for liquidity grabs.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. Tickers
You can set up to 5 tickers for the screener to scan order blocks here. You can also enable / disable them and set their individual timeframes.
2. General Configuration
Pivot Length -> This setting determines the range of the pivots. This means a candle has to have the highest / lowest wick of the previous X bars and the next X bars to become a high / low pivot.
Wick-Body Ratio -> After a pivot has a false breakout, the wick-body ratio of the latest candle is tested. The resulting ratio must be higher than this setting for it to be considered as a liquidity grab.

ICT Market Structure and OTE ZoneThis indicator is based on the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts, and it helps identify daily market structure and the optimal trade entry (OTE) zone based on Fibonacci retracement levels.
To read and interpret this indicator, follow these steps:
Daily High and Low: The red line represents the daily high, while the green line represents the daily low. These lines help you understand the market structure and the range within which the price has moved during the previous day.
OTE Zone: The gray area between two gray lines represents the optimal trade entry (OTE) zone. This zone is calculated using Fibonacci retracement levels (in this case, 61.8% and 78.6%) applied to the previous day's high and low. The OTE zone is an area where traders might expect a higher probability of a price reversal, following the ICT concepts.
To use this indicator for trading decisions, you should consider the following:
Identify the market structure and overall trend (uptrend, downtrend, or ranging).
Watch for price action to enter the OTE zone. When the price reaches the OTE zone, it may indicate a higher probability of a price reversal.
Combine the OTE zone with other confluences, such as support and resistance levels, candlestick patterns, or additional ICT concepts like order blocks and market maker profiles, to strengthen your trading decisions.
Always use proper risk management and stop-loss orders to protect your capital in case the market moves against your trade.
Keep in mind that the provided indicator is a simple example based on the ICT concepts and should not be considered financial advice. The ICT methodology is vast, and traders often combine multiple concepts to develop their trading strategies. The provided indicator should be treated as a starting point to explore and implement the ICT concepts in your trading strategy.
