World Class SMC [WinWorld]

19. Sept. 2023

This indicator uses valid pullbacks in order to draw market structure with strict accordance to TradingHub strategy.




Features

Our indicator uses a number of price concepts, such as:

1. IDM
   
2. BoS & ChoCh (also their sweeps)
   
3. Automatic resolving of ChoCh-IDM and IDM-BoS conflicts
   
4. Orderblocks (IDM, Extreme)
   
5. True Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
   
6. True PDH/PDL
   
7. SCOB pattern
   

One of the core features is the ability to choose a time point, from which the market structure will be drawn. This feature alone allows you to test your most desired hypotheses about the market movements within a few clicks, so no more guesses and "what if"s, because you get the opportunity to test everything yourself and right now.



Settings

Let's review the settings themselves:

• Extended Structure: allows you to choose between drawing market structure for a whole timeline or from specific time point only;
  
• Build OB by sweeps: allows you to only draw orderblocks from candle, which took liquidity from previous candle by sweep;
  
• Structure colours & text: allows you to customise visuals representations of market structure elements on your chart;
  
• Structure visuals: allows you to choose which elements of market structure you want/don't want to see on your chart;
  
• Show trend: allows you to choose the way market structure trend will be displayed on your chart: divider or background colouring;
  
• Alerts for each and every event, whether it is a new BoS, ChoCh, orderblock and etc.
  

Usage Examples

IDM Orderblock (OB-IDM)

Basic demonstration


When price reaches OB-IDM, you will be able to receive an alert. After that, check if the candle, that reached OB-IDM, closed inside or above(bearish scenario)/below(bullish scenario) OB-IDM's boundaries. If conditions above were met, go on LTF and look for an entry.


Extreme Orderblock (OB-EXT)

Basic demonstration


Similar to OB-IDM situation: When price reaches OB-EXT, you will be able to receive an alert. After that, check if the candle, that reached OB-EXT, closed inside or above(bearish scenario)/below(bullish scenario) OB-EXT's boundaries. If conditions above were met, go on LTF and look for an entry.


Sweep PDH/PDL

Basic demonstration


* PDH — Previous Day High
* PDL — Previous Day Low
When you received PDH sweep alert and current trend is bearish, go on LTF to find entry point. (bullish scenario: PDL sweep and current trend is bullish)


Sweep ChoCh

Basic demonstration


If you get alert of sweeped ChoCh, it usually means that price grabbed the liquidity from extremum points and is ready to continue going with the trend. Go on LTF to find an entry.

🟡Previous OB-EXT. Now you can see all OB-EXT orderblocks for the available price history, and many of you probably already know, that OB-EXT is a great POI, which often gives very lucrative trade; opportunities.


🟡 SMT. Less lucrative POI than OB-IDM or OB-EXT, but can still offer good entry opportunities;


🟡 FVG. Before this update FVG was only used in orderblocks, but now we've decided to make FVG as separate feature, which allows to see all live and unfilled FVGs for the available price history. Also, when price touches FVG, script adjusts the touched FVGs, so you would see how much unfilled imbalance there if left;


🟡 Extended BoS & ChoCh lines. Sometimes, because of sweeps, BoS and ChoCh can be hard to spot on the chart. Now it is no longer the case, because you can choose in the settings to extend BoS and ChoCh lines to the time point of the first sweep, which spotting BoS and ChoCh way easier.


✔️ Also we have optimized our algorithms even more to deliver better performance and precision. Especially significant changes were made to orderblock algorithm.

Huge update:
+ New IDM type is now available — Pro. IDM of this type is much more prone to reflect the most liquid point of interest and cause price to reverse when reached. This is meant for advanced usage. User can choose between old type (in-idm) and new type (Pro) in the settings by toggling option "IDM Type";
+ Reengineered and updated logic of OB-IDM and OB-EXT validation and tracking;
+ Major bug fix for every visual element of the indicator with the focus on orderblocks;
+ Major optimization updates to all elements of the indicator with the focus on orderblocks;
+ Updated UI;
- Removed redundant settings.

version 2.1.7:


+ Added IFC - Institutional Funding Candle (+ Alerts).

IFC Pattern Mechanics from the True Price Movement Perspective: When a major player plans a trending move, they need to clear out all "passengers" on the current "flight." Why?

Smaller players will cover their positions, slowing the trending movement. This isn’t favorable for institutional traders, so they make a sharp move to trigger stop-losses among retail traders, allowing them to realize their trending potential.

This is how the IFC is formed — a candlestick with high volume, a large shadow, and an imbalance.

A valid IFC is only one that has sweeped liquidity.

How to Use the IFC Pattern:

• HTF (Higher Time Frame) – for higher time frames, an IFC represents a significant zone of interest;
  
• LTF (Lower Time Frame) – upon reaching a point of interest (POI) on the HTF, an IFC on the LTF serves as an excellent entry point, where the stop-loss is placed behind the candle’s high or low.
  

Here are a few examples of IFC usage:




Personally we have to say, that IFC is a great POI to trade on crypto markets, considering their volatility and sharp movements.


+ Added Engulfing Candle (EC) (+ Alerts);

Engulfing Candle (EC) is a classic candle pattern, which calculates quite simply:

• Bullish EC = close > previous high AND low < previous low;
  
• BearishEC = close < previous low AND high > previous high.
  

- Deleted live FVG feature for robustness increase and saving of computational power.
