Liquidity Trap Detector Pro [PyraTime]The Problem: Why You Get Stopped Out
90% of retail traders place their stop-losses at obvious swing highs and lows. Institutional algorithms ("Smart Money") are programmed to push price through these levels to trigger liquidity, fill their heavy orders, and then immediately reverse the market.
If you have ever had your stop hit right before the market moves exactly where you predicted—you were the victim of a Liquidity Trap.
The Solution: Visualizing the "Stop Hunt"
Liquidity Trap Detector Pro is not just a support/resistance indicator. It is a comprehensive Reversal Scoring Engine.
Unlike standard indicators that spam signals on every wick, this tool uses a proprietary 5-Star Scoring System to analyze the quality of the trap. It validates every signal using Wick Symmetry, RSI Divergence, and Volume Analysis to separate a true reversal from a trend continuation.
Key Features (USP)
- 5-Star Scoring Engine: Every signal is rated from 1 to 5 stars. Stop guessing if a signal is valid; let the algorithm check the confluence for you.
- Glassmorphism Visuals: Gone are the messy lines. We use modern, semi-transparent "Liquidity Zones" that keep your chart clean and professional.
- Smart Terminology: Automatically identifies Bull Traps (Buyers trapped at highs) and Bear Traps (Sellers trapped at lows).
- Heads-Up Display (HUD): A professional dashboard monitors the market state, active filters, and recent trap statistics in real-time.
- Strict Non-Repainting: (Technical Note) This script uses strict non-repainting logic. All Higher Timeframe (HTF) data is confirmed and closed before a signal is generated, ensuring historical accuracy.

Tutorial: How to Trade This Indicator
1. Understanding the Signals
We use correct institutional terminology to describe the market mechanics:
GREEN Signal (BEAR TRAP):
- What happened: Price swept a Swing Low, enticing sellers (Bears) to enter. The candle then reversed and closed back inside the range, trapping those sellers.
- The Trade: This is a Bullish Reversal setup (Long).
RED Signal (BULL TRAP):
- What happened: Price swept a Swing High, enticing buyers (Bulls) to breakout. The candle reversed and closed lower, trapping the buyers.
- The Trade: This is a Bearish Reversal setup (Short).
2. The 5-Star Scoring System
Not all traps are created equal. The stars tell you how much "Confluence" exists:
- 1 Star: A basic structure sweep. Risky.
- 3 Stars: A solid setup backed by either Volume or Divergence.
- 5 Stars: The "Perfect" Trap. Structure Sweep + RSI Divergence + Volume Spike + Wick Symmetry. High Probability.
3. The Strategy
- Wait for the Zone: Watch price approach a coloured Liquidity Zone.
- Observe the Reaction: Do not trade blindly. Wait for the candle to close.
- Check the Stars: Look for at least 3 Stars before considering an entry.
- Confirm with HUD: Glance at the Dashboard to ensure the "RSI Filter" and "Vol Filter" agree with your analysis.

Flexible Marubozu Detector**Flexible Marubozu Detector (v6)**
This indicator identifies **Marubozu candles** — powerful candlestick patterns indicating strong directional momentum with minimal or no shadows (wicks).
A **Bullish Marubozu** (green) shows buyers dominated the session: open ≈ low, close ≈ high.
A **Bearish Marubozu** (red) shows sellers in control: open ≈ high, close ≈ low.
Unlike strict detectors, this version allows customizable tolerance for tiny shadows, making it practical for real markets where perfect Marubozu are rare.
**Key Features**
- **Adjustable tolerance**: Max shadow % of candle range (default 5%).
- **Minimum body size**: Requires body ≥ % of range (default 90%) to filter small candles.
- **Clear labels**: "BULL MARU" below bullish, "BEAR MARU" above bearish.
- **Alerts**: Built-in conditions for Bullish/Bearish Marubozu on any timeframe.
- **Pine Script v6**: Fully compatible with the latest version for optimal performance.
**How to Use**
1. Add to chart via Indicators > Community Scripts.
2. Customize inputs: Lower tolerance for stricter detection, higher for more signals.
3. Combine with trend tools (e.g., EMA, support/resistance) for better entries/exits.
- Bullish Marubozu in uptrend → potential continuation long.
- Bearish Marubozu in downtrend → potential short.
**Why Marubozu?**
These candles signal strong conviction and often precede continuations or reversals. This detector helps spot them quickly without manual scanning.
NOTE: I use this indicator along with "Swing high low support & resistance" by Pattersmart to trade reversals. I long trade a bearish Marubozu reversal, when the Marubozu breaks through a swing low identified on the "Swing high low support & resistance" indicator.

Wedge Green SquadWedge GS automatically detects confirmed swing highs and lows and draws clean wedge trendlines directly from the true pivot bars. The indicator uses non-repainting pivots and extends the lines forward to highlight contracting price structures, potential breakouts, and compression zones.
Designed for traders who value structure over noise, it works best on higher timeframes and pairs naturally with support, resistance, and volume analysis. This tool focuses on clarity and reliability, not prediction.
Liquidity Sweep Pro [Whale Edition]Liquidity Sweep Pro is a next-generation trading tool that bridges the gap between Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Quantitative Volume Analysis.
Traditional "Liquidity Sweep" indicators often generate false signals by marking every wick crossover as a trade setup. This indicator solves that problem by filtering setups through a Quant VSA Engine. It asks not just "Did price sweep a level?" but "Was there institutional money behind this move?"
🔬 How It Works
The indicator operates on three synchronized layers:
1. Market Structure (Liquidity Pools) It automatically identifies key pivot points where retail Stop Losses are likely clustered:
Buy Side Liquidity (BSL): Areas above swing highs.
Sell Side Liquidity (SSL): Areas below swing lows.
2. The Quant Engine (Whale Detection) Instead of using simple volume averages, we apply statistical modeling to detect anomalies:
Log-Normal Z-Score: Normalizes volume data to detect statistically significant outliers (Sigma > 2.5). This adapts to market volatility, filtering out noise.
Kaufman Efficiency Ratio (KER): Analyzes the quality of price movement to classify the "Whale" type:
❄️ Absorption (Iceberg): High Volume + Low Price Movement. Signals a potential reversal.
🚀 Propulsion (Drive): High Volume + High Price Efficiency. Signals an aggressive breakout.
3. The Trigger (Smart Entry) A trade signal is generated ONLY when:
Price sweeps a liquidity level (wicking below/above).
Price closes back within the range.
Institutional Activity is confirmed (High Z-Score Volume).
Trend (EMA 200) and Momentum (RSI) filters are aligned.
🛡️ Features
Intrabar Analysis: Uses request.security_lower_tf to analyze the internal volume delta of the candle for maximum precision.
Automated Risk Management: Plots Entry, Take Profit, and Stop Loss levels directly on the chart based on ATR (Average True Range) and your preferred Risk:Reward ratio.
Unified Alerts: Includes a single "ANY SWEEP" alert condition, allowing you to monitor both Long and Short setups with just one TradingView alert.
Visual Classification: Candles with institutional activity are marked with a 🐋 symbol, even if no sweep occurs, helping you read the narrative.
⚙️ Best Settings & Usage
Timeframes: Works best on 15m, 1h, and 4h charts.
LTF Interval (Input): This is crucial.
If trading on the 1h chart, set LTF to 1 minute.
If trading on the 4h chart, set LTF to 5 minutes.
Whale Threshold: Default is 2.5 Sigma. Increase to 3.0 for fewer, higher-confidence signals, or decrease to 2.0 for more frequency.

Fractal Swing Levels📊 Fractal Swing Levels — Indicator Description
Fractal Swing Levels is a lightweight, visual indicator that plots historical swing high and swing low reference levels using Williams Fractal logic. The indicator helps traders visually identify areas where price previously formed confirmed pivots. These levels can be used as contextual reference zones when analyzing price structure and market behavior.
🔍 What the Indicator Does
Detects confirmed swing highs and swing lows using a configurable fractal length. Draws horizontal levels at those swing points. Extends the levels to the right for ongoing visual reference. Limits the number of displayed levels to keep the chart clean
🎨 Visual Elements
Red lines represent historical swing high levels
Green lines represent historical swing low levels
These lines are drawn only after fractal confirmation and represent past price structure, not future projections.
⚙️ Settings Explained
Fractal Length : Controls how significant a swing must be to qualify as a level.
Higher values → fewer, more prominent levels
Lower values → more frequent levels
Max Levels Per Side : Limits how many swing high and swing low levels are displayed at one time, helping reduce chart clutter.
📈 How to Use
Use the levels as visual reference points for structure analysis. Combine with trend tools, moving averages, or other technical indicators. Useful across intraday, swing, and positional timeframes. This indicator is best used as a contextual aid, not as a standalone decision tool.
⚠️ Important Notes
This is a visual analysis tool only. It does not generate buy or sell signals. It does not predict future price movement. Levels are based solely on confirmed historical price data
🎯 Summary
Fractal Swing Levels provides a clean and minimal way to visualize historical swing structure on the chart, helping traders better understand where price has previously reacted.
15M Swing Sweep Lines + SMT (ES vs NQ)15M Swing Sweep Lines (NY Killzones)Visualize liquidity sweeps of 15-minute swing highs/lows exclusively during high-impact London & New York killzones.This ICT-inspired indicator detects when price sweeps (wicks beyond) the most recent confirmed 15-minute swing high or low — classic signs of liquidity raids or stop hunts — but only if the sweep happens during key "killzone" sessions where institutional activity is typically highest.Key Features15M Swing Detection: Uses confirmed pivot highs/lows (length 2) on the 15-minute timeframe for reliable structure points.
Killzone Filters (New York time):London Killzone: 3:00 AM – 4:59 AM
New York Killzone: 9:30 AM – 10:59 AM (captures the high-volatility NY open overlap)
Sweep Visualization:Bearish Sweep (high > last 15M swing high): Thick red horizontal line from the swing point to the sweep bar.
Bullish Sweep (low < last 15M swing low): Thick green horizontal line from the swing point to the sweep bar.
Lines use xloc.bar_time for precise placement and extend only to the bar where the sweep occurs.
No duplicates: Prevents multiple lines for the same swing sweep.
Non-repainting logic with lookahead_off for clean, trustworthy signals.
Why Killzones MatterMany ICT/SMC traders focus on these windows because they often feature aggressive manipulation, equal highs/lows sweeps, and the setup for strong directional moves. This tool helps you instantly spot when buy-side or sell-side liquidity has been raided on the 15M structure during these prime times.Ideal ForConfirming potential reversals or inducements after liquidity grabs.
Adding confluence to entries during London or NY sessions.
Futures traders (ES, NQ, etc.) looking for clean visual cues of smart money engineering.
Lightweight, overlay-friendly, and focused — add it to your chart for clearer insight into 15M liquidity sweeps when it matters most. Perfect companion for killzone-based strategies!

- Trade against the higher timeframe trend
- Enter without confirmation signals
- Ignore the colored zones for SL/TP placement
- Overtrade - wait for quality setups
- Move stop loss to breakeven too early

## 📚 ICT Concepts Explained
### **Liquidity Sweep:**
Smart money intentionally pushes price beyond key levels to trigger retail stop losses, then reverses to their intended direction. The X marker identifies these moments.
### **Swing Failure Pattern (SFP):**
Price attempts to make a new high/low but lacks follow-through, indicating weak momentum and likely reversal. Similar to a "false breakout" but more specific to swing structures.
### **Supply & Demand Zones:**
- **Red zones** = Areas where selling pressure overwhelmed buyers
- **Green zones** = Areas where buying pressure overwhelmed sellers
- These zones act as magnets for price to return and react

ICT Precision Turtle Soup NuNi1. Identify the CRT Range (The Context)
Before looking for a trade, the indicator defines the Candle Range Theory (CRT) boundaries based on your lookback period.
CRT High (Red Line): Represents old buy-side liquidity.
CRT Low (Green Line): Represents old sell-side liquidity.
HTF Filter: The code ensures the higher timeframe trend (e.g., 4H) aligns with your direction. Only look for Buys if the HTF trend is bullish.
2. The Manipulation (Turtle Soup 🐢)
Wait for price to move outside the CRT boundaries.
The Trap: Price must sweep below the CRT Low or above the CRT High.
The Reclaim: A Turtle Body Soup (TBS) occurs when the candle body closes back inside the range, or a wick rejection happens.
Symbol: A 🐢 icon will appear on the chart. Do not entry yet. This is just a warning that a setup is forming.
3. The Shift & Momentum (The Trigger)
To ensure a high-probability entry, the indicator waits for two technical confirmations:
MSS (Market Structure Shift): Price must break the most recent swing high (for Buys) or swing low (for Sells).
Displacement: The breaking candle must be "displaced"—meaning it has a large, energetic body compared to previous candles. This proves that big banks/institutions are moving the price.
4. The Entry Execution
Once all conditions are met, the "⭐ PRECISION ENTRY" label will appear.
Execution: You can enter at the market price when the label appears.
Retest Entry: Alternatively, look for the price to return to the IFVG or Breaker Zone (the shaded box) drawn by the indicator for a more refined entry.

Daily: 1.0% account risk per trade
Weekly: 0.75% account risk per trade
Monthly: 0.5% account risk per trade
Formula:
Contracts = (Account Equity × Risk%) ÷ (Stop Points × $50)
Minimum = 1 contractStop Losses
Daily: 12 points ($600 per contract)
Weekly: 40 points ($2,000 per contract)
Monthly: 100 points ($5,000 per contract)
Profit Targets (Risk:Reward)
Daily: 2:1 = 24 points ($1,200 profit)
Weekly: 3:1 = 120 points ($6,000 profit)
Monthly: 4:1 = 400 points ($20,000 profit)
Example with $50,000 AccountDaily Trade:
Risk = $500 (1% of $50k)
Stop = 12 points × $50 = $600
Contracts = $500 ÷ $600 = 0.83 → 1 contract
Target = 24 points = $1,200 profit
Weekly Trade:
Risk = $375 (0.75% of $50k)
Stop = 40 points × $50 = $2,000
Contracts = $375 ÷ $2,000 = 0.18 → 1 contract
Target = 120 points = $6,000 profit
Monthly Trade:
Risk = $250 (0.5% of $50k)
Stop = 100 points × $50 = $5,000
Contracts = $250 ÷ $5,000 = 0.05 → 1 contract
Target = 400 points = $20,000 profit

Smart Money Concept Change of Character Break of StructureSMC Structure
Visualizes Change of Character (CHoCH) and Break of Structure (BoS) - two fundamental Smart Money Concepts for identifying trend reversals and continuations.
This is the 1st version of an implementation of this concept.
It is NOT supposed to be used as a signal but a confirmation. Best use during NYSE hours.
Full Description
Overview
This indicator automatically detects and displays two core Smart Money Concepts (SMC) directly on your chart:
CHoCH (Change of Character) – The first structural break against the prevailing trend, signaling a potential reversal
BoS (Break of Structure) – A structural break in the direction of the current trend, confirming continuation
These concepts are essential building blocks of SMC trading methodology, helping traders identify where institutional players may be entering or exiting positions.
How It Works
The indicator uses pivot-based swing detection to identify significant highs and lows. When price breaks through these levels, it classifies the move as either a CHoCH or BoS based on the current trend context.
CHoCH (Change of Character)
Occurs when price breaks structure AGAINST the current trend
First warning sign that the trend may be reversing
Displayed as a solid horizontal line with "CHoCH" label
Green = Bullish reversal | Red = Bearish reversal
BoS (Break of Structure)
Occurs when price breaks structure IN THE DIRECTION of the current trend
Confirms that the existing trend remains intact
Displayed as a dashed horizontal line with "BoS" label
Teal = Bullish continuation | Maroon = Bearish continuation
Visual Example

Colors
Fully customizable colors for all elements
How to Use
Identify the trend: Look at the sequence of CHoCH and BoS signals to understand market structure
Watch for CHoCH: A CHoCH signals potential reversal – wait for confirmation before trading against the previous trend
Trade with BoS: BoS confirms trend continuation – look for entries on pullbacks in the direction of the trend
Combine with other SMC concepts: Works great alongside Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, and liquidity concepts
Tips
Use higher pivot lookback values on higher timeframes for cleaner signals
A CHoCH doesn't guarantee reversal – it's the first warning sign, not confirmation
Multiple BoS signals in a row indicate a strong, healthy trend
Look for CHoCH occurring at key levels (support/resistance, order blocks) for higher probability setups

JK Scalp - Nishith RajwarJK Scalp Nishith Rajwar
Multi-Stochastic Rotation & Momentum Scalping Framework
JK Scalp is a rule-based momentum and rotation oscillator designed for short-term scalping and intraday execution.
It focuses on how momentum rotates across multiple stochastic speeds, instead of relying on a single oscillator or lagging averages.
This is an execution aid, not a predictive indicator.
🧠 Concept & Originality
Unlike standard stochastic tools, JK Scalp uses four synchronized stochastic layers:
• Fast (9,3) → execution timing
• Medium (14,3) → structure confirmation
• Slow (44,3) → swing context
• Trend (60,10,10) → dominant momentum regime
The core idea is quad-rotation:
High-probability trades occur when all momentum layers rotate together after reaching an extreme.
This script combines:
• Momentum rotation
• Divergence logic
• Flag continuation logic
• Trend-state filtering
into a single cohesive framework, not a simple indicator mashup.
📊 How to Use (Step-by-Step)
1️⃣ Best Timeframes
• Scalping: 1m – 3m
• Intraday: 5m – 15m
• Avoid higher timeframes (not designed for swing holding)
Works best on:
• Index options
• Index futures
• Highly liquid stocks
• Crypto majors
2️⃣ Understanding the Signals
🔁 Quad Rotation (Core Signal)
A valid rotation requires:
• Fast, Medium, Slow, and Trend stochastic moving in the same direction
• Momentum exiting Overbought / Oversold zones
• Trend stochastic supporting the move
This filters out random oscillator noise.
3️⃣ Entry Conditions
🟢 LONG Setup
• Bullish quad rotation
• Either:
– Bullish divergence OR
– Bullish flag pullback
• Fast stochastic turning up
🔴 SHORT Setup
• Bearish quad rotation
• Either:
– Bearish divergence OR
– Bearish flag pullback
• Fast stochastic turning down
⚠️ Signals are confirmation-based, not anticipatory.
4️⃣ SUPER LONG / SUPER SHORT
These appear only when:
• Quad rotation
• Divergence confirmation
They represent high-confidence momentum inflection zones, not guaranteed reversals.
5️⃣ Stop-Loss Visualization
Optional SL zones are plotted using:
• Recent swing high / low
• ATR-based buffer (configurable)
This helps traders visualize risk, not automate exits.
🎨 Visual System (Why It Looks Different)
• Multi-layer glow effects → momentum strength
• Dynamic cloud → fast vs trend dominance
• Color-shifting fast line → acceleration vs decay
• Chart overlays → execution clarity without clutter
Everything is designed for speed and readability during live trading.
⭐ Unique Selling Points (USP)
✅ Multi-speed stochastic rotation (not single-line signals)
✅ Context-first, not signal spam
✅ Built-in divergence + continuation logic
✅ Non-repainting logic
✅ Designed for scalpers, not hindsight analysis
✅ Works across indices, options, crypto, and futures
⚠️ Important Notes
• Not a standalone trading system
• Best combined with:
– Market structure
– Key levels
– Session timing
• Avoid low-liquidity or news-spike candles
This indicator guides execution, it does not replace discretion.
👤 Who This Is For
• Scalpers & intraday traders
• Options traders needing precise timing
• Traders who understand momentum & structure
• Users who want fewer but higher-quality signals
🏁 Summary
JK Scalp helps you trade momentum rotation, not overbought/oversold myths.
Wait for alignment. Execute with discipline.
Trend Break Targets [MarkitTick]Trend Break Targets
Trend Break Targets is a technical analysis tool designed to assist traders in identifying trendline breakouts and projecting potential price targets based on market geometry. Unlike fully automated indicators that guess trendlines, this tool provides you with precise control by allowing you to manually Pivot Point the trendline to specific points in time, while automating the complex math of target projection and structure mapping.
Theoretical Basis & Concepts
This indicator is grounded in classic technical analysis principles found in foundational trading literature. It automates the following methodology:
Drawing a trend line between two key points to represent dynamic support or resistance.
Identifying a breakout when the price closes above or below this line, potentially signaling a change in trend.
Calculating a price target by measuring the vertical distance between the breakout line and the last high/low (pivot), then projecting that same distance in the direction of the breakout.
This concept is based on methods and "Measured Move" theories explained in classic books such as "Technical Analysis of Stock Trends" by Edwards & Magee, "Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets" by John Murphy, and in Thomas Bulkowski's Price Pattern Studies.
How It Works
Pivot Pointed Trendline Construction The script draws a trendline between two user-defined points in time (Start Date and End Date). It calculates the slope between these points and extends the line infinitely to the right, allowing you to define the exact structure (e.g., a resistance trendline on a wedge).
Breakout Detection The script monitors the "Price Source" (High, Low, or Close) relative to the extended trendline.
A Bullish Breakout (BC) occurs when the Close crosses above a bearish trendline.
A Bearish Breakout (BC) occurs when the Close crosses below a bullish trendline.
Dynamic Target Projection (The Math) Upon a confirmed breakout, the script automatically calculates three distinct targets by identifying the most significant "Swing Point" (Pivot) prior to the breakout.
Distance (D): The vertical distance between the Trendline and the Pivot Price at the specific bar where the pivot occurred.
Target 1 (T1): The Breakout Price +/- (Distance × 1.0). This represents a classic 1:1 measured move.
Target 2 (T2): The Breakout Price +/- (Distance × 1.618). Based on the Golden Ratio extension.
Target 3 (T3): The Breakout Price +/- (Distance × 2.618).
Market Structure (CHOCH) The script includes an optional Change of Character (CHOCH) module. This runs independently of the trendline logic, identifying local Swing Highs and Swing Lows based on the "Swing Detection Length." It plots dashed lines and labels to visualize immediate shifts in market structure.
How to Use This Tool
This is an interactive tool that requires user input to define the setup.
Identify a Setup: Locate a clear trend, wedge, or flag pattern on your chart.
Set Pivot Points: Go to the Indicator Settings. Input the exact Start Date and End Date corresponding to the two main touches of your trendline.
Monitor for Breakout: The script will extend the line. Wait for a "BC" label to appear.
Trade Management: Once "BC" prints, the T1, T2, and T3 lines will instantly render. These can be used as potential take-profit zones or areas to tighten stop-losses.
Settings & Configuration
Indicator Settings
Start/End Date: The timestamp Pivot Points for your trendline.
Price Source: Determines what price (High or Low) Pivot Points the line and triggers the breakout.
Pivot Left/Right: Adjusts the sensitivity for finding the "Pivot Before Break" used for target calculations.
Extend Target Line: How far forward the target lines are drawn.
Visual Style
Colors: Fully customizable colors for the Trendline, Breakout Labels, and each Target level (T1, T2, T3).
Gold Bullish Reversal
This analysis dissects a confirmed bullish reversal on Gold using a custom Trend Break system. The setup identifies a transition from a bearish corrective phase to bullish momentum, validated by a structural break and a geometric target projection.
Trend Identification (The Pivot Points) The descending white trendline serves as the primary dynamic resistance, defining the bearish correction.
Pivot Points: The line is drawn connecting two significant swing highs, marked by Label 1 and Label 2.
Logic: These points represent the "lower highs" characteristic of the previous downtrend. As long as price remained below this trajectory, the bearish bias was intact.
The Trigger: Breakout & Confirmation The transition occurs at the candle marked BC (Breakout Candle).
Breakout Criteria: The indicator logic dictates that a signal is only valid when the bar closes above the trendline. This filters out intraday wicks and ensures genuine buyer commitment.
CHOCH Confluence: Immediately following the breakout, a CHOCH (Change of Character) label appears. This signals a shift in market structure, indicating that the internal lower-high/lower-low sequence has been violated, adding probability to the reversal.
Target Projection: The Measured Move The vertical green lines (T1, T2) represent profit objectives derived from the depth of the prior move. The logic calculates the distance between the breakout line and the lowest pivot prior to the break.
T1 (Standard Target): This is a 1:1 projection of the pre-breakout volatility. We see price action initially stalling near this level, confirming it as a zone of interest.
T2 (Golden Ratio Extension): The second target is calculated as the initial distance multiplied by 1.618 (Fibonacci Golden Ratio). The chart shows the price rallying aggressively through T1 to tap the T2 zone, often considered an exhaustion or major take-profit level in harmonic extensions.
Conclusion Gold has successfully invalidated the 4-hour bearish trendline. The confluence of a confirmed close above resistance (BC) and a structural shift (CHOCH) provided a high-probability long setup. The price has now fulfilled the T2 (1.618) extension, suggesting traders should watch for consolidation or a reaction at this key Fibonacci resistance level.
Bearish Trendline Breakdown
The image displays a Bearish Trendline Breakdown on the Gold (XAUUSD) 4-hour chart. The indicator is actually functioning in "Low" mode here (connecting swing lows to form support), which triggers the bearish logic found in the code. Here is the step-by-step breakdown:
The Setup: Pivot Points & Trendline
Visual: The Blue Labels "1" and "2" connected by a white diagonal line.
Code Logic: These are the user-defined start and end points.
Pivot Point 1 (startDate): The starting pivot of the trendline.
Pivot Point 2 (endDate): The ending pivot.
Trendline: The code draws a line between these two points and extends it to the right (extend.right). In this specific image, the line acts as a Support Trendline.
The Trigger: Break Candle (BC)
Visual: The Red Label "BC" appearing just below the white trendline.
Code Logic: This is the execution signal. The code detects a "Down Break" (dnBreak) because the Price Source was likely set to "Low" and the candle's Close was lower than the Trendline Price at that specific bar (close < currLinePrice). This confirms the support level has been breached.
The Projection: Targets (T1 & T2)
Visual: The Green Labels "T1" and "T2" with dotted horizontal lines projected downward.
Code Logic: These are profit targets based on a "Measured Move."
Pivot Calculation: The script looks back for a recent "Pivot High" (the peak before the crash) to calculate the volatility/distance (dist) between that peak and the trendline.
T1 (Conservative): The price is projected downward by 1x that distance (currLinePrice - dist).
T2 (Extended): The price is projected downward by 1.618x that distance (Golden Ratio extension).
Market Context: CHOCH
Visual: The small Red/Orange "CHOCH" labels appearing above the price action.
Code Logic: This is a secondary confirmation system running independently of the trendline. It detects a Change of Character (structural shift). The red labels indicate a "Bearish CHOCH," meaning the price broke below a significant prior swing low (last_swing_low). This supports the bearish bias of the trendline break.
Disclaimer This tool is for educational and technical analysis purposes only. Breakouts can fail (fake-outs), and past geometric patterns do not guarantee future price action. Always manage risk and use this tool in conjunction with other forms of analysis.
SMC IndicatorTitle: Smart Money Concepts Market Structure
Description: This is a technical analysis tool designed to map Market Structure using Smart Money Concepts (SMC) logic. Unlike standard ZigZag indicators that often clutter the chart with repainting lines, this script focuses on delivering a clean, objective view of Trend Structure (Highs/Lows) and Structural Breaks.
The Problem It Solves: Traders often struggle to identify the valid "Swing High" or "Swing Low" in real-time. This indicator automates that process using a non-repainting detection engine, helping traders objectively spot Trend Continuations (BoS) and Potential Reversals (CHoCH).
How It Works:
1. Pivot Detection (The ZigZag Engine): The script identifies Swing Points based on a user-defined Depth and Deviation %.
High (H): A peak is confirmed when price retraces by the deviation percentage.
Low (L): A trough is confirmed when price rallies by the deviation percentage.
Ghost Line: A dotted line connects the last confirmed pivot to the current live price, allowing you to visualize the developing structure before it locks in.
2. Structure Mapping: Once pivots are confirmed, the script analyzes price action relative to those points:
BoS (Break of Structure): Trend Continuation. Triggered when price breaks a confirmed pivot in the direction of the trend (e.g., breaking a Higher High in an uptrend).
CHoCH (Change of Character): Trend Reversal. Triggered when price breaks a major pivot in the opposite direction (e.g., breaking a Higher Low in an uptrend).
Visual Features:
Minimalist Design: Uses floating text labels (no background boxes) to keep price action visible.
Color Coded: Blue/Maroon for Continuation (BoS), Aqua/Orange for Reversal (CHoCH).
Settings Guide:
ZigZag Deviation %: Set this to 5.0 for Higher Timeframes (Daily/4H) or lower it to 0.2 - 0.5 for Intraday Scalping (1m/5m).
Ghost Line: Toggle on/off to see the real-time projection.
Alerts: Full alert support included for Bullish/Bearish BoS and CHoCH signals.
Credits: Logic based on standard Price Action and Market Structure theory.

15 min Trailstop15m High/Low Liquidity Lines (1m) — Indicator Description
15m High/Low Liquidity Lines (1m) is a precision liquidity-mapping tool designed for intraday traders who understand the importance of higher-timeframe liquidity levels while executing on the 1-minute chart.
This indicator automatically detects confirmed 15-minute swing highs and swing lows using pivot logic. When a new 15m high or low forms:
✔ Liquidity Line Generation
A horizontal line is drawn exactly at the price level of the pivot.
The line is anchored to the exact 1-minute candle that produced the 15m high/low, ensuring perfect visual alignment.
The line extends only up to the current bar — not across the whole chart.
Optional text labels (“15m High”, “15m Low”) can be shown at the start of each line.
✔ Auto-Cleanup (Smart Liquidity Sweep Detection)
If price trades through the level, the corresponding line and label are:
Instantly deleted
Marking the level as taken/swept
Allowing the chart to stay clean and focused on active liquidity only
This mimics institutional liquidity logic: once the high or low is violated, the target is considered filled and removed.
✔ Alerts
The indicator includes built-in alerts that fire when:
A new 15m high is confirmed
A new 15m low is confirmed
This allows the trader to react immediately when fresh liquidity levels appear.
✔ Customization Options
You can fully tailor the visual representation:
Turn highs and/or lows on or off
Choose line style (solid, dashed, dotted)
Customize line color and thickness
Customize the label style, size, and transparency
Who Is This For?
This indicator is ideal for:
ICT-style traders
Liquidity-based scalpers
1-minute ES/NQ traders
Anyone who uses HTF liquidity levels to frame trades on the LTF
It provides a clean, automated method to track active 15-minute liquidity levels directly on the 1-minute chart with zero clutter and perfect alignment.
Stage 2 Pullback Swing indicatorThis scanner is built for swing traders who want high-probability pullbacks inside strong, established uptrends. It targets names in a confirmed Stage 2 bull phase (Weinstein model) that have pulled back 10–30% from a recent swing high on light selling volume, while still respecting fast EMAs.
Goal: find powerful uptrending stocks during controlled dips before the next leg higher.
What it looks for
Strong prior uptrend: price above the 50 and 200 SMAs, momentum positive over multiple timeframes
Confirmed Stage 2: price above a rising 30-week MA on the weekly chart
Pullback depth: 10–30% off recent swing highs—not too shallow, not broken
Pullback quality: range contained, no panic selling, trend structure intact
EMA behavior: price near EMA10 or EMA20 at signal time
Volume contraction: sellers fading throughout the pullback
Bullish shift: green candle back in trend direction
Why this matters
This setup hints at institutions defending positions during a temporary dip. Strong stocks pull back cleanly with declining volume, then resume the primary trend. This script alerts you when those conditions align.
Best way to use
Filter a strong universe before applying—quality tickers only
Pair with clear trade plans: risk defined by prior swing low or ATR
Trigger alerts instead of hunting charts manually
Intended for
Swing traders who want momentum continuation setups
Traders who prefer entering on controlled retracements
Anyone tired of chasing extended breakouts
ATR ZigZag BreakoutATR ZigZag Breakout
This strategy uses my ATR ZigZag indicator (powered by the ZigZagCore library) to scalp breakouts at volatility-filtered highs and lows.
Everyone knows stops cluster around clear swing highs and lows. Breakout traders often pile in there, too. These levels are predictable areas where aggressive orders hit the tape. The idea here is simple:
→ Let ATR ZigZag define clean, volatility-filtered pivots
→ Arm a stop market order at those pivots
→ Join the breakout when the crowd hits the level
The key to greater success in this simple strategy lies in the ZigZag. Because the pivots are filtered by ATR instead of fixed bar counts or fractals, the levels tend to be more meaningful and less noisy.
This approach is especially suited for intraday trading on volatile instruments (e.g., NQ, GC, liquid crypto pairs).
How It Works
1. Pivot detection
The ATR ZigZag uses an ATR-based threshold to confirm swing highs and lows. Only when price has moved far enough in the opposite direction does a pivot become “official.”
2. Candidate breakout level
When a new swing direction is detected and the most recent high/low has not yet been broken in the current leg, the strategy arms a stop market order at that pivot.
• Long candidate → most recent swing high
• Short candidate → most recent swing low
These “candidate trades” are shown as dotted lines.
3. Entry, SL, and TP
If price breaks through the level, the stop order is filled and a bracket is placed:
• Stop loss = ATR × SL multiplier
• Take profit = SL distance × RR multiplier
Once a level has traded, it is not reused in the same swing leg.
4. Cancel & rotate
If the market reverses and forms a new swing in the opposite direction before the level is hit, the pending order is cancelled and a new candidate is considered in the new direction.
Additional Features
• Optional session filter for backtesting specific trading hours
ATR ZigZag - Volatility-Filtered Market StructureDescription
This indicator draws ZigZags using an ATR based threshold for direction switching to identify major swing highs and lows. Instead of relying on fractals or fixed bar-count swings, pivots are confirmed only when price moves beyond the prior extreme by:
threshold = ATR(length) × ATR_mult
This filters noise, enforces valid swing structure (high → low → high), and adapts automatically to volatility. The ATR ZigZag is ideal for traders who want a clean, objective view of swing structure without noise. This has many uses, including mapping swing structure, drawing chart patterns, and trading around extremes.
Lag and Repainting
Pivots are confirmed only after price moves sufficiently in the opposite direction. This creates necessary lag. The ZigZag is drawn when this occurs, and will anchor to the high/low in the past. Optional detection dot plots show exactly when confirmation occurred.
What You See
ZigZag: dashed gray line, repainted to anchor at the confirmed highs and lows
Latest Pivot Levels: Dashed horizontal lines at the most recent confirmed high/low.
Optional Live Swing Leg: A real-time line from the last confirmed pivot to the current swing extreme, updating until a new pivot forms.
Optional ATR Boxes: 1×ATR shaded zones around the latest pivot for structural context.
Optional Pivot Confirmation Dots: Markers show the bar where the threshold is crossed and a swing is officially confirmed. This is to understand the lag and see when the ZigZag repainted.
Market Structure Shift (MSS) [Sword & Shield]MARKET STRUCTURE SHIFT (MSS)
A clean and focused indicator for identifying Market Structure Shifts in price action.
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
WHAT IS MARKET STRUCTURE SHIFT (MSS)?
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
A Market Structure Shift occurs when price breaks a significant swing high or swing low,
indicating a potential change in market direction. This indicator automatically detects
and plots these key levels.
BULLISH MSS: Price breaks above a previous swing high
BEARISH MSS: Price breaks below a previous swing low
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
FEATURES
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CLEAN DISPLAY
- Shows only the last 2 MSS by default (1 bullish + 1 bearish)
- Keeps charts clean and focused on recent structure
- Automatically removes old MSS when new ones appear
CUSTOMIZABLE DETECTION
- Adjustable swing detection (left/right bars)
- Choose break confirmation method (Close or Wick)
- Fixed-length lines (no infinite extension by default)
SMART FILTERING
- Only plots one MSS per direction until opposite MSS occurs
- Prevents duplicate signals in the same direction
- Clear visual distinction between bullish (blue) and bearish (red)
CLEAN LABELS
- Text labels positioned above lines
- No background tooltips for cleaner appearance
- Color-matched to their respective MSS lines
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
SETTINGS
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
SWING DETECTION
- Swing Left Bars (default: 2)
- Swing Right Bars (default: 2)
- Higher values = more significant swings detected
BREAK CONFIRMATION
- Close: MSS confirmed when candle closes beyond level
- Wick: MSS confirmed when wick touches beyond level
DISPLAY OPTIONS
- Show Only Last 2 MSS: ON by default (keeps chart clean)
- Extend lines to the right: OFF by default (fixed-length lines)
- Line bars (when not extended): 50 bars (customizable)
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
DETECTION LOGIC
1. Identifies swing highs and swing lows using pivot detection
2. Monitors price action for breaks of these levels
3. Confirms break based on selected method (Close or Wick)
4. Plots MSS line at the broken level
FILTERING LOGIC
- Only one MSS per direction is allowed consecutively
- Example: If bullish MSS appears, no new bullish MSS until bearish MSS occurs
- This prevents multiple signals in trending markets
DISPLAY LOGIC
- When "Show Only Last 2 MSS" is enabled:
• Only the most recent bullish MSS is shown
• Only the most recent bearish MSS is shown
• Old MSS are automatically deleted when new ones appear
- When disabled: All historical MSS remain visible
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
USAGE EXAMPLES
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
FOR TREND IDENTIFICATION
- Bullish MSS = Potential uptrend beginning
- Bearish MSS = Potential downtrend beginning
- Use in conjunction with other indicators for confirmation
FOR ENTRY SIGNALS
- Wait for MSS to confirm trend change
- Enter on pullback to MSS level
- Use MSS as support/resistance
FOR SCALPING (Lower Timeframes)
- Swing Left/Right Bars: 2-3 (more sensitive)
- Break Confirmation: Close (more reliable)
- Show Only Last 2 MSS: ON (cleaner charts)
FOR SWING TRADING (Higher Timeframes)
- Swing Left/Right Bars: 5-10 (more significant swings)
- Break Confirmation: Close (avoid false breaks)
- Show Only Last 2 MSS: ON or OFF based on preference
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
VISUAL DESIGN
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
LINES
- Dashed style for easy identification
- Blue for bullish MSS
- Red for bearish MSS
- Fixed length (50 bars default) for cleaner appearance
LABELS
- "MSS" text positioned above each line
- No background for clean display
- Color-matched to line color
- Small size to avoid chart clutter

🟡 GOLD 4H HUD v8.9 — Loose ICT OB + Strong/Weak + FVG/HVN/LVNGOLD 4H HUD v8.9 is a clean, structured Smart Money Concepts (SMC)–based analysis tool designed exclusively for XAUUSD on the 4-hour timeframe.
It focuses on the three most important elements for institutional orderflow analysis:
✔ Loose ICT Order Blocks (Demand/Supply)
✔ Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
✔ Volume Profile Zones (HVN/LVN/POC)
The script builds a professional-style HUD that displays the key institutional regions and structural levels that matter most for gold traders.
📌 Key Features
1 — Market Structure Engine (HH/HL & BOS)
The indicator detects:
Minor swing Highs and Lows
Last confirmed HH / HL levels
Break of Structure (BOS) for directional bias
EMA-200 trend filter (UP / DOWN / NEUTRAL)
This gives traders a clean structural read without clutter or noise.
2 — Loose FVG Engine (Tolerance-Based ICT Gaps)
A soft-threshold FVG engine detects “loose” Fair Value Gaps using a 0.1% price tolerance.
This method ensures:
Fewer missed imbalances
Cleaner OB/FVG alignment
Higher accuracy on 4H gold displacement legs
FVGs automatically shift to the right side of the chart for clean visualization.
3 — Order Block Engine (Demand/Supply + Strong/Weak Classification)
A simplified ICT-style OB engine scans the past few candles whenever BOS is detected.
It identifies:
Demand OB during bullish BOS
Supply OB during bearish BOS
Strong OB if fully nested inside an active FVG
Weak OB otherwise
OB boxes include:
Clear color coding (strong vs. weak)
Price range labels inside each box
Automatic right-shift for visual clarity
4 — Volume Profile Engine (POC / HVN / LVN / VAH / VAL)
Based on a rolling window (default 120 bars), the script builds a lightweight volume distribution.
It displays:
POC (Point of Control)
HVN (High Volume Node)
LVN (Low Volume Node)
Value Area High / Low
HVN/LVN zones are shown as right-shifted colored boxes with price labels.
These zones help identify:
Institutional accumulation
Low-liquidity rejection points
Areas where price tends to react strongly
5 — Support / Resistance Mapping
The script automatically generates:
OB-based support/resistance
Swing-high/swing-low levels
HVN/LVN structural levels
These are displayed in the HUD for fast reference.
6 — Professional HUD Panel
A compact, easy-to-read HUD summarizes:
Trend direction
Latest HH/HL
OB ranges (Strong/Weak)
HVN/LVN price zones
POC
Multi-layer support & resistance
This turns the script into a fully functional analysis dashboard.
📌 What This Indicator Is NOT
To avoid misunderstanding:
It does not take entries or generate buy/sell signals
It does not auto-detect CHOCH, MSS, SMT, or sweeps
It is not a trading bot
This tool is designed as an institutional-style map and analysis HUD, not a strategy.
📌 Best Use Case
This indicator is ideal for traders who want to:
Read institutional structure on XAUUSD
Identify clean Demand/Supply zones
Visualize FVG/OB/HVN interactions
Track high-value liquidity levels
Build directional bias on 4H before dropping to execution timeframes
⚠ Important Note
This tool is designed exclusively for the 4H timeframe.
Using it on lower timeframes will display a warning.
⭐ Silver HUD v15.1 — Full Notes Version (3-Column HUD)Silver HUD v15.1 is a comprehensive Pine Script v5 indicator designed for micro silver futures (SIL) trading on TradingView. It overlays a 3-column HUD table displaying real-time analysis across multiple engines including trend, flow, momentum, pullback, turbo (breakout), divergence, volume, and 2H structure. The system generates weighted BUY/SELL scores and final signals with risk warnings, optimized for 5m charts with 30m support/resistance levels.
Core Components
Support/Resistance & Trade Levels
Pulls 30m lowest low (support) and highest high (resistance) for entry/stop/TP calculation. Entry defaults to support, stop loss at support - 0.10, with ATR-based TPs (1x/2x/3x). Risk per lot factors SIL contract specs (1000oz, $5/tick). Alerts when price nears support within 0.05.
Multi-Engine Analysis
TREND: EMA20/50 + VWAP direction (UP/DOWN/MIXED).
FLOW: CCIOBV (CCI+OBV) + QQE momentum sync.
MOMENTUM: RSI/MFI >55 (UP) or <45 (DOWN).
PB (Pullback): EMA20 deviation (-0.4% to +1.2% = OK; flags CHASE/DEEP).
TURBO: ATR percentile + BB width squeeze for BREAKOUT/EXHAUST.
Scores weight flow (30%), momentum (25%), PB (25%), trend/turbo (10-20%). BUY ≥75, SELL ≥72 triggers raw signals.
Advanced Features
2H Structure: Detects HH/HL/LL/LH swings for macro bias (UP/DOWN/MIXED).
SELL System: Distinguishes SELL-ALERT (exhaustion) vs full SELL-REVERSAL (multi-condition bear flip).
Divergence & Volume: RSI-based bear/bull div on swing highs/lows; surge detection (>2x vol MA or 80th percentile).
Final Signal: Combines raw scores with filters (no DEEP PB for BUY, 2H tiebreaker); RISK flags conflicts like div or trend mismatches.
HUD Display & Usage
Renders a bottom-right table with metric, status (color-coded), and Chinese explanations. Stars rate scores (★★★★★=90+). Ideal for high-frequency SIL traders monitoring multi-timeframe confluence on 5m charts.
