VPOC Harmonics - Liquidity-Weighted Price / Time RatiosVPOC Harmonics - Liquidity-Weighted Price / Time Ratios
Summary
This indicator transforms a swing’s price range, duration, and liquidity profile into a structured set of price-per-bar ratios. By anchoring two points and manually entering the swing’s VPOC (highest-volume price), it generates candidate compression values that unify price, time, and liquidity structure. These values can be applied to chart scaling, harmonic testing, and liquidity-aware market geometry.
________________________________________
Overview
Most swing analysis tools only consider price (ΔP) and time (N bars). This script goes further by incorporating the VPOC (Point of Control) — the price with the highest traded volume — directly into swing geometry.
• Anchors define the swing’s Low (L), High (H), and bar count (N).
• The user manually enters the VPOC (highest-volume price).
• The indicator then computes a suite of ratios that integrate range, duration, and liquidity placement.
The output is a table of liquidity-weighted price-per-bar candidates, designed for compression testing and harmonic analysis across swings and instruments.
________________________________________
How to Use
1. Select a Swing
- Place Anchor A and Anchor B to define the swing’s Low, High, and bar count.
2. Find the VPOC
- Apply TradingView’s Fixed Range Volume Profile tool over the same swing.
- Identify the Point of Control (POC) — the price level with the highest traded volume.
3. Enter the VPOC
- Manually input the POC into the indicator settings.
4. Review Outputs
- The table will display candidate ratios expressed mainly as price-per-bar values.
5. Apply in Practice
- Use the ratios as chart compression inputs or as benchmarks for testing harmonic alignments across swings.

Outputs
Swing & Inputs
• Bars (N): total bar count of the swing.
• Low (L): swing low price.
• High (H): swing high price.
• ΔP = H − L: price range.
• Mid = (L + H) ÷ 2: midpoint price.
• VPOC (V): user-entered highest-volume price.
• Base slope s0 = ΔP ÷ N: average change per bar.
• π-adjusted slope sπ = (π × ΔP) ÷ (2 × N): slope adjusted for half-cycle arc geometry.
________________________________________
VPOC Harmony Ratios (L, H, V, N)
• λ = (V − L) ÷ ΔP: normalized VPOC position within the range.
• R = (V − L) ÷ (H − V): symmetry ratio comparing lower vs. upper segment.
• s1 = (V − L) ÷ N: slope from Low → VPOC.
• s2 = (H − V) ÷ N: slope from VPOC → High.
________________________________________
Blended Means (s1, s2)
These combine the two segment slopes in different ways:
• HM(s1,s2) = 2 ÷ (1/s1 + 1/s2): Harmonic mean, emphasizes the smaller slope.
• GM(s1,s2) = sqrt(s1 × s2): Geometric mean, balances both slopes proportionally.
• RMS(s1,s2) = sqrt((s1² + s2²) ÷ 2): Root-mean-square, emphasizes the larger slope.
• L2 = sqrt(s1² + s2²): Euclidean norm, the vector length of both slopes combined.
________________________________________
Slope Blends
• Quadratic weighting: s_quad = s0 × ((V−L)² + (H−V)²) ÷ (ΔP²)
• Tilted slope: s_tilt = s0 × (0.5 + λ)
• Entropy-scaled slope: s_ent = s0 × H2(λ), with H2(λ) = −
________________________________________
Curvature & Liquidity Extensions
• π-arc × λ: s_arc = sπ × λ
• Liquidity-π: s_piV = sπ × (V ÷ Mid)
________________________________________
Scale-Normalized Families
With k = sqrt(H ÷ L):
• k (scale factor) = sqrt(H ÷ L)
• s_comp = s0 ÷ k: compressed slope candidate
• s_exp = s0 × k: expanded slope candidate
• Exponentiated blends:
- s_kλ = s0 × k^(2λ−1)
- s_φλ = s0 × φ^(2λ−1), with φ = golden ratio ≈ 1.618
- s_√2λ = s0 × (√2)^(2λ−1)
________________________________________
Practical Application
All formulas generate liquidity-weighted price-per-bar ratios that integrate range, time, and VPOC placement.
These values are designed for:
• Chart compression settings
• Testing harmonic alignments across swings
• Liquidity-aware scaling experiments

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.

ICT Setup 04 [TradingFinder] SFP Sweep Liquidity Fake CHoCH/BOS🔵 Introduction
In smart money and ICT based trading, liquidity is never random. Some of the most meaningful market moves begin with a liquidity sweep where price intentionally hunts a previous swing high or swing low to trigger stop loss orders and absorb volume.
This manipulation is often followed by a sharp reversal from a reaction zone, creating ideal conditions for a high probability entry. This indicator is built to detect exactly that. It identifies a valid swing point and defines a reaction zone where price is likely to react.
For short setups, the zone lies between the swing high and the maximum of the candle’s open or close. For long setups, it’s drawn from the swing low to the minimum of the open or close.
When price returns to this zone and forms a qualified confirmation candle typically a doji or a small bodied candle that closes inside the zone while sweeping the liquidity this is a potential sign of reversal.
The candle must show both the sweep and the inability to hold above or below the key level, signaling a fake breakout or failed move. By combining elements of liquidity hunt, reaction zone rejection, and candle based entry confirmation, this tool highlights sniper entry points used by smart money to trap retail traders and reverse the trend. It helps filter out noise and enhances timing, making it ideal for trading in alignment with institutional order flow.
Long Position :
Short Position :
🔵 How to Use
This indicator is designed to highlight precise moments where price sweeps liquidity and reacts within a high probability reversal zone. By identifying clean swing highs and lows and defining a smart reaction zone around them, it filters out weak fakeouts and focuses only on setups with strong institutional footprints.
The tool works best when combined with market structure analysis and is suitable for both scalping and intraday trading. Below is a breakdown of how to interpret the signals for long and short positions based on the visual setups provided.
🟣 Long Setup
In a long setup, the indicator first detects a valid swing low where liquidity has likely accumulated below. A reaction zone is then drawn between the swing low and the minimum of the open or close of the swing candle.
When price returns to this zone, it must sweep the previous low and form a precise confirmation candle, such as a doji or a small bodied candle, that closes inside the zone. This candle must also reject the lower level, showing failure to continue downward.
As shown in the chart, once the liquidity grab is complete and the confirmation candle forms, a clean long signal is issued, indicating a potential bullish reversal backed by smart money behavior.
🟣 Short Setup
In a short setup, the indicator identifies a swing high where buy-side liquidity is resting. It then constructs a reaction zone between the high and the maximum of the open or close of the swing candle. Price must return to this zone, sweep the swing high, and form a bearish confirmation candle inside the zone.
A classic example is a doji or rejection candle that traps breakout buyers and fails to hold above the previous high. In the provided chart, the price aggressively hunts the liquidity above the swing high, but the close within the reaction zone signals exhaustion, prompting a short signal with high reversal probability.
These setups represent moments where price action, liquidity behavior, and candle structure align to offer strong entries. By focusing on clean sweeps and reactive confirmations, the indicator helps traders stay on the side of smart money and avoid common breakout traps.

🔵 Conclusion
This indicator is built for traders who rely on liquidity driven setups and smart money principles. By combining swing structure analysis with precision reaction zones and strict entry confirmation, it isolates the exact moments where price sweeps liquidity and fails to continue. These are high value points where institutional activity often reveals itself, and retail traps unfold.
Unlike generic breakout tools, this script focuses on quality over quantity by requiring both a sweep of a swing high or low and a confirmed rejection candle that closes inside a predefined zone. With customizable swing depth, proximity filters, visual highlights, and alert functions, it offers a complete framework for identifying and acting on fake breakouts with confidence. Whether you trade forex, crypto, or indices, this tool enhances your ability to align with true order flow and take entries where liquidity is most likely to shift.
M2 Liquidity Divergence ModelM2 Liquidity Divergence Model
The M2 Liquidity Divergence Model is a macro-aware visualization tool designed to compare shifts in global liquidity (M2) against the performance of a benchmark asset (default: Bitcoin). This script captures liquidity flows across major global economies and highlights whether price action is aligned ("Agreement") or diverging ("Divergence") from macro trends.
🔍 Core Features
M2 Global Liquidity Index (GLI):
Aggregates M2 money supply from major global economies, FX-adjusted, including extended contributors like India, Brazil, and South Africa. The slope of this composite is used to infer macro liquidity trends.
Lag Offset Control:
Allows the M2 signal to lead benchmark asset price by a configurable number of days (Lag Offset), useful for modeling the forward-looking nature of macro flows.
Gradient Macro Context (Background):
Displays a color-gradient background—aqua for expansionary liquidity, fuchsia for contraction—based on the slope and volatility of M2. This contextual backdrop helps users visually anchor price action within macro shifts.
Divergence Histogram (Optional):
Plots a histogram showing dynamic correlation or divergence between the liquidity index and the selected benchmark.
Agreement Mode: M2 and asset are moving together.
Divergence Mode: Highlights break in expected macro-asset alignment.
Adaptive Transparency Scaling:
Histogram and background gradients scale their visual intensity based on statistical deviation to emphasize stronger signals.
Toggle Options:
Show/hide the M2 Liquidity Index line.
Show/hide divergence histogram.
Enable/disable visual offset of M2 to benchmark.
🧠 Suggested Usage
Macro Positioning: Use the background context to align directional trades with macro liquidity flows.
Disagreement as Signal: Use divergence plots to identify when price moves against macro expectations—potential reversal or exhaustion zones.
Time-Based Alignment: Adjust Lag Offset to synchronize M2 signals with asset price behavior across different market conditions.

BSL & SSL - Liquidity Zones
BSL & SSL - Liquidity Zones
Indicator Description (for TradingView)
Concept
The BSL & SSL - Liquidity Zones indicator is a simple yet powerful visual tool that helps traders identify key liquidity zones in the market by tracking prominent highs and lows on the chart.
It is based on the concept that the Highest High (Buy Side Liquidity - BSL) and Lowest Low (Sell Side Liquidity - SSL) represent zones where stop-loss orders and pending orders accumulate — often attracting future price movements.
Purpose
This indicator helps traders spot hidden liquidity levels which may act as targets or potential reversal points. It is especially useful for traders who apply Smart Money Concepts (SMC) or institutional trading models.
Great for detecting potential stop hunts and understanding market structure shifts.
How It Works
The indicator calculates the Highest High and Lowest Low over a user-defined period (default: 20 candles).
When a new Higher High forms, it marks a new BSL.
When a new Lower Low forms, it marks a new SSL.
These zones are likely to attract price in the future — either as targets or traps.
Visualization
The indicator draws static horizontal lines (Stepline style) at BSL and SSL levels.
These lines remain in place until broken or a new level is formed.
Visual Labels enhance clarity:
🟢 Green Label → BSL
🔴 Red Label → SSL
Trading Insights / Practical Use
When price approaches a BSL or SSL zone, ask yourself:
✅ Will price break the level to grab liquidity?
✅ Will there be a reversal after liquidity is taken?
The indicator does not provide signals by itself — it serves as a valuable confirmation tool when combined with:
Price Action
Support & Resistance
Momentum Indicators
SMC Tools
Key Benefits
✅ Easy to use
✅ Enhances liquidity analysis
✅ Highlights zones targeted by institutional players
✅ Simple calculation — no complex formulas
Limitations
🚫 Does NOT generate buy/sell signals
🚫 Should be used as part of a complete trading framework
Conclusion
BSL & SSL - Liquidity Zones is a versatile and intuitive tool for any trader looking to better understand where liquidity is positioned on the chart.
It works across all timeframes and complements any trading strategy, especially Smart Money-based approaches.
Schmit Trading LiquidityDescription
Schmit Trading Liquidity Marker automatically spots and labels open liquidity sweep levels by detecting classic stop-run patterns (Bull→Bear for highs, Bear→Bull for lows) across multiple timeframes. Lines are drawn exactly at the wick of the triggering candle and removed as soon as price “sweeps” through them, keeping your chart clean and focused on live levels only.
How It Works
1. Pattern Detection
• Liquidity High: When a bullish candle is immediately followed by a bearish candle (Bull→Bear), the script records the higher of the two wicks.
• Liquidity Low: When a bearish candle is immediately followed by a bullish candle (Bear→Bull), the script records the lower of the two wicks.
2. Multi-Timeframe Support
• Choose up to six timeframes (5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 4 h, daily) via checkboxes.
• Each timeframe is evaluated independently, and liquidity levels are drawn on your current chart.
3. Precision Wick Placement
• Lines start at bar_index – 1 so they align exactly with the wick of the signal candle, regardless of your chart’s timeframe.
4. Automatic Cleanup
• As soon as price closes beyond a drawn line (sweep), that line is deleted automatically.

Enigma Sniper 369The "Enigma Sniper 369" is a custom-built Pine Script indicator designed for TradingView, tailored specifically for forex traders seeking high-probability entries during high-volatility market sessions.
Unlike generic trend-following or scalping tools, this indicator uniquely combines session-based "kill zones" (London and US sessions), momentum-based candle analysis, and an optional EMA trend filter to pinpoint liquidity grabs and reversal opportunities.
Its originality lies in its focus on liquidity hunting—identifying levels where stop losses are likely clustered (around swing highs/lows and wick midpoints)—and providing visual entry zones that are dynamically removed once price breaches them, reducing clutter and focusing on actionable signals.
The name "369" reflects the structured approach of three key components (session timing, candle logic, and trend filter) working in harmony to snipe precise entries.
What It Does
"Enigma Sniper 369" identifies potential buy and sell opportunities by drawing two types of horizontal lines on the chart during user-defined London and US
session kill zones:
Solid Lines: Mark the swing low (for buys) or swing high (for sells) of a trigger candle, indicating a potential entry point where stop losses might be clustered.
Dotted Lines: Mark the 50% level of the candle’s wick (lower wick for buys, upper wick for sells), serving as a secondary confirmation zone for entries or tighter stop-loss placement.
These lines are plotted only when specific candle conditions are met within the kill zones, and they are automatically deleted once the price crosses them, signaling that the liquidity at that level has likely been grabbed. The indicator also includes an optional EMA filter to ensure trades align with the broader trend, reducing false signals in choppy markets.
How It Works
The indicator’s logic is built on a multi-layered approach:
Kill Zone Timing: Trades are only considered during user-defined London and US session hours (e.g., London from 02:00 to 12:00 UTC, as seen in the screenshots). These sessions are known for high volatility and liquidity, making them ideal for capturing institutional moves.
Candle-Based Momentum Logic:
Buy Signal: A candle must close above its midpoint (indicating bullish momentum) and have a lower low than the previous candle (suggesting a potential liquidity grab below the previous swing low). This is expressed as close > (high + low) / 2 and low < low .
Sell Signal: A candle must close below its midpoint (bearish momentum) and have a higher high than the previous candle (indicating a potential liquidity grab above the previous swing high), expressed as close < (high + low) / 2 and high > high .
These conditions ensure the indicator targets candles that break recent structure to hunt stop losses while showing directional momentum.
Optional EMA Filter: A 50-period EMA (customizable) can be enabled to filter signals based on trend direction.
Buy signals are only generated if the EMA is trending upward (ema_value > ema_value ), and sell signals require a downward EMA trend (ema_value < ema_value ). This reduces noise by aligning entries with the broader market trend.
Liquidity Levels and Deletion Logic:
For a buy signal, a solid green line is drawn at the candle’s low, and a dotted green line at the 50% level of the lower wick (from the candle body’s bottom to the low).
For a sell signal, a solid red line is drawn at the candle’s high, and a dotted red line at the 50% level of the upper wick (from the body’s top to the high).
These lines extend to the right until the price crosses them, at which point they are deleted, indicating the liquidity at that level has been taken (e.g., stop losses triggered).
Alerts: The indicator includes alert conditions for buy and sell signals, notifying traders when a new setup is identified.
Underlying Concepts
The indicator is grounded in the concept of liquidity hunting, a strategy often employed by institutional traders. Markets frequently move to levels where stop losses are clustered—typically just beyond swing highs or lows—before reversing in the opposite direction. The "Enigma Sniper 369" targets these moves by identifying candles that break structure (e.g., a lower low or higher high) during high-volatility sessions, suggesting a potential sweep of stop losses. The 50% wick level acts as a secondary confirmation, as this midpoint often represents a zone where tighter stop losses are placed by retail traders. The optional EMA filter adds a trend-following element, ensuring entries are taken in the direction of the broader market momentum, which is particularly useful on lower timeframes like the 15-minute chart shown in the screenshots.
How to Use It
Here’s a step-by-step guide based on the provided usage example on the GBP/USD 15-minute chart:
Setup the Indicator: Add "Enigma Sniper 369" to your TradingView chart. Adjust the London and US session hours to match your timezone (e.g., London from 02:00 to 12:00 UTC, US from 13:00 to 22:00 UTC). Customize the EMA period (default 50) and line styles/colors if desired.
Identify Kill Zones: The indicator highlights the London session in light green and the US session in light purple, as seen in the screenshots. Focus on these periods for signals, as they are the most volatile and likely to produce liquidity grabs.
Wait for a Signal: Look for solid and dotted lines to appear during the kill zones:
Buy Setup: A solid green line at the swing low and a dotted green line at the 50% lower wick level indicate a potential buy. This suggests the market may have grabbed liquidity below the swing low and is now poised to move higher.
Sell Setup: A solid red line at the swing high and a dotted red line at the 50% upper wick level indicate a potential sell, suggesting liquidity was taken above the swing high.
Place Your Trade:
For a buy, set a buy limit order at the dotted green line (50% wick level), as this is a more conservative entry point. Place your stop loss just below the solid green line (swing low) to cover the full swing. For example, in the screenshots, the market retraces to the dotted line at 1.32980 after a liquidity grab below the swing low, triggering a buy limit order.
For a sell, set a sell limit order at the dotted red line, with a stop loss just above the solid red line.
Monitor Price Action: Once the price crosses a line, it is deleted, indicating the liquidity at that level has been taken. In the screenshots, after the buy limit is triggered, the market moves higher, confirming the setup. The caption notes, “The market returns and tags us in long with a buy limit,” highlighting this retracement strategy.
Additional Context: Use the indicator to identify liquidity levels that may be targeted later. For example, the screenshot notes, “If a new session is about to open I will wait for the grab liquidity to go long,” showing how the indicator can be used to anticipate future moves at session opens (e.g., London open at 1.32980).
Risk Management: Always set a stop loss below the swing low (for buys) or above the swing high (for sells) to protect against adverse moves. The 50% wick level helps tighten entries, improving the risk-reward ratio.
Practical Example
On the GBP/USD 15-minute chart, during the London session (02:00 UTC), the indicator identifies a buy setup with a solid green line at 1.32901 (swing low) and a dotted green line at 1.32980 (50% wick level). The market initially dips below the swing low, grabbing liquidity, then retraces to the dotted line, triggering a buy limit order. The price subsequently rises to 1.33404, yielding a profitable trade. The user notes, “The logic is in the last candle it provides new level to go long,” emphasizing the indicator’s ability to identify fresh levels after a liquidity sweep.
Customization Tips
Adjust the EMA period to suit your timeframe (e.g., a shorter period like 20 for faster signals on lower timeframes).
Modify the session hours to align with your broker’s timezone or specific market conditions.
Use the alert feature to get notified of new setups without constantly monitoring the chart.
Why It’s Useful for Traders
The "Enigma Sniper 369" stands out by combining session timing, momentum-based candle analysis, and liquidity hunting into a single tool. It provides clear, actionable levels for entries and stop losses, removes invalid signals dynamically, and aligns trades with high-probability market conditions. Whether you’re a scalper looking for quick moves during London open or a swing trader targeting session-based reversals, this indicator offers a structured, data-driven approach to trading.

Smart Liquidity Wave [The_lurker]"Smart Liquidity Wave" هو مؤشر تحليلي متطور يهدف لتحديد نقاط الدخول والخروج المثلى بناءً على تحليل السيولة، قوة الاتجاه، وإشارات السوق المفلترة. يتميز المؤشر بقدرته على تصنيف الأدوات المالية إلى أربع فئات سيولة (ضعيفة، متوسطة، عالية، عالية جدًا)، مع تطبيق شروط مخصصة لكل فئة تعتمد على تحليل الموجات السعرية، الفلاتر المتعددة، ومؤشر ADX.
فكرة المؤشر
الفكرة الأساسية هي الجمع بين قياس السيولة اليومية الثابتة وتحليل ديناميكي للسعر باستخدام فلاتر متقدمة لتوليد إشارات دقيقة. المؤشر يركز على تصفية الضوضاء في السوق من خلال طبقات متعددة من التحليل، مما يجعله أداة ذكية تتكيف مع الأدوات المالية المختلفة بناءً على مستوى سيولتها.
طريقة عمل المؤشر
1- قياس السيولة:
يتم حساب السيولة باستخدام متوسط حجم التداول على مدى 14 يومًا مضروبًا في سعر الإغلاق، ويتم ذلك دائمًا على الإطار الزمني اليومي لضمان ثبات القيمة بغض النظر عن الإطار الزمني المستخدم في الرسم البياني.
يتم تصنيف السيولة إلى:
ضعيفة: أقل من 5 ملايين (قابل للتعديل).
متوسطة: من 5 إلى 20 مليون.
عالية: من 20 إلى 50 مليون.
عالية جدًا: أكثر من 50 مليون.
هذا الثبات في القياس يضمن أن تصنيف السيولة لا يتغير مع تغير الإطار الزمني، مما يوفر أساسًا موثوقًا للإشارات.
2- تحليل الموجات السعرية:
يعتمد المؤشر على تحليل الموجات باستخدام متوسطات متحركة متعددة الأنواع (مثل SMA، EMA، WMA، HMA، وغيرها) يمكن للمستخدم اختيارها وتخصيص فتراتها ، يتم دمج هذا التحليل مع مؤشرات إضافية مثل RSI (مؤشر القوة النسبية) وMFI (مؤشر تدفق الأموال) بوزن محدد (40% للموجات، 30% لكل من RSI وMFI) للحصول على تقييم شامل للاتجاه.
3- الفلاتر وطريقة عملها:
المؤشر يستخدم نظام فلاتر متعدد الطبقات لتصفية الإشارات وتقليل الضوضاء، وهي من أبرز الجوانب المخفية التي تعزز دقته:
الفلتر الرئيسي (Main Filter):
يعمل على تنعيم التغيرات السعرية السريعة باستخدام معادلة رياضية تعتمد على تحليل الإشارات (Signal Processing).
يتم تطبيقه على السعر لاستخراج الاتجاهات الأساسية بعيدًا عن التقلبات العشوائية، مع فترة زمنية قابلة للتعديل (افتراضي: 30).
يستخدم تقنية مشابهة للفلاتر عالية التردد (High-Pass Filter) للتركيز على الحركات الكبيرة.
الفلتر الفرعي (Sub Filter):
يعمل كطبقة ثانية للتصفية، مع فترة أقصر (افتراضي: 12)، لضبط الإشارات بدقة أكبر.
يستخدم معادلات تعتمد على الترددات المنخفضة للتأكد من أن الإشارات الناتجة تعكس تغيرات حقيقية وليست مجرد ضوضاء.
إشارة الزناد (Signal Trigger):
يتم تطبيق متوسط متحرك على نتائج الفلتر الرئيسي لتوليد خط إشارة (Signal Line) يُقارن مع عتبات محددة للدخول والخروج.
يمكن تعديل فترة الزناد (افتراضي: 3 للدخول، 5 للخروج) لتسريع أو تبطيء الإشارات.
الفلتر المربع (Square Filter):
خاصية مخفية تُفعّل افتراضيًا تعزز دقة الفلاتر عن طريق تضييق نطاق التذبذبات المسموح بها، مما يقلل من الإشارات العشوائية في الأسواق المتقلبة.
4- تصفية الإشارات باستخدام ADX:
يتم استخدام مؤشر ADX كفلتر نهائي للتأكد من قوة الاتجاه قبل إصدار الإشارة:
ضعيفة ومتوسطة: دخول عندما يكون ADX فوق 40، خروج فوق 50.
عالية: دخول فوق 40، خروج فوق 55.
عالية جدًا: دخول فوق 35، خروج فوق 38.
هذه العتبات قابلة للتعديل، مما يسمح بتكييف المؤشر مع استراتيجيات مختلفة.
5- توليد الإشارات:
الدخول: يتم إصدار إشارة شراء عندما تنخفض خطوط الإشارة إلى ما دون عتبة محددة (مثل -9) مع تحقق شروط الفلاتر، السيولة، وADX.
الخروج: يتم إصدار إشارة بيع عندما ترتفع الخطوط فوق عتبة (مثل 109 أو 106 حسب الفئة) مع تحقق الشروط الأخرى.
تُعرض الإشارات بألوان مميزة (أزرق للدخول، برتقالي للضعيفة والمتوسطة، أحمر للعالية والعالية جدًا) وبثلاثة أحجام (صغير، متوسط، كبير).
6- عرض النتائج:
يظهر مستوى السيولة الحالي في جدول في أعلى يمين الرسم البياني، مما يتيح للمستخدم معرفة فئة الأصل بسهولة.
7- دعم التنبيهات:
تنبيهات فورية لكل فئة سيولة، مما يسهل التداول الآلي أو اليدوي.
%%%%% الجوانب المخفية في الكود %%%%%
معادلات الفلاتر المتقدمة: يستخدم المؤشر معادلات رياضية معقدة مستوحاة من معالجة الإشارات لتنعيم البيانات واستخراج الاتجاهات، مما يجعله أكثر دقة من المؤشرات التقليدية.
التكيف التلقائي: النظام يضبط نفسه داخليًا بناءً على التغيرات في السعر والحجم، مع عوامل تصحيح مخفية (مثل معامل التنعيم في الفلاتر) للحفاظ على الاستقرار.
التوزيع الموزون: الدمج بين الموجات، RSI، وMFI يتم بأوزان محددة (40%، 30%، 30%) لضمان توازن التحليل، وهي تفاصيل غير ظاهرة مباشرة للمستخدم لكنها تؤثر على النتائج.
الفلتر المربع: خيار مخفي يتم تفعيله افتراضيًا لتضييق نطاق الإشارات، مما يقلل من التشتت في الأسواق ذات التقلبات العالية.
مميزات المؤشر
1- فلاتر متعددة الطبقات: تضمن تصفية الضوضاء وإنتاج إشارات موثوقة فقط.
2- ثبات السيولة: قياس السيولة اليومي يجعل التصنيف متسقًا عبر الإطارات الزمنية.
3- تخصيص شامل: يمكن تعديل حدود السيولة، عتبات ADX، فترات الفلاتر، وأنواع المتوسطات المتحركة.
4- إشارات مرئية واضحة: تصميم بصري يسهل التفسير مع تنبيهات فورية.
5- تقليل الإشارات الخاطئة: الجمع بين الفلاتر وADX يعزز الدقة ويقلل من التشتت.

#### **What is the Smart Liquidity Wave Indicator?**
"Smart Liquidity Wave" is an advanced analytical indicator designed to identify optimal entry and exit points based on liquidity analysis, trend strength, and filtered market signals. It stands out with its ability to categorize financial instruments into four liquidity levels (Weak, Medium, High, Very High), applying customized conditions for each category based on price wave analysis, multi-layered filters, and the ADX (Average Directional Index).
#### **Concept of the Indicator**
The core idea is to combine a stable daily liquidity measurement with dynamic price analysis using sophisticated filters to generate precise signals. The indicator focuses on eliminating market noise through multiple analytical layers, making it an intelligent tool that adapts to various financial instruments based on their liquidity levels.
#### **How the Indicator Works**
1. **Liquidity Measurement:**
- Liquidity is calculated using the 14-day average trading volume multiplied by the closing price, always based on the daily timeframe to ensure value consistency regardless of the chart’s timeframe.
- Liquidity is classified as:
- **Weak:** Less than 5 million (adjustable).
- **Medium:** 5 to 20 million.
- **High:** 20 to 50 million.
- **Very High:** Over 50 million.
- This consistency in measurement ensures that liquidity classification remains unchanged across different timeframes, providing a reliable foundation for signals.
2. **Price Wave Analysis:**
- The indicator relies on wave analysis using various types of moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, etc.), which users can select and customize in terms of periods.
- This analysis is integrated with additional indicators like RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MFI (Money Flow Index), weighted specifically (40% waves, 30% RSI, 30% MFI) to provide a comprehensive trend assessment.
3. **Filters and Their Functionality:**
- The indicator employs a multi-layered filtering system to refine signals and reduce noise, a key hidden feature that enhances its accuracy:
- **Main Filter:**
- Smooths rapid price fluctuations using a mathematical equation rooted in signal processing techniques.
- Applied to price data to extract core trends away from random volatility, with an adjustable period (default: 30).
- Utilizes a technique similar to high-pass filters to focus on significant movements.
- **Sub Filter:**
- Acts as a secondary filtering layer with a shorter period (default: 12) for finer signal tuning.
- Employs low-frequency-based equations to ensure resulting signals reflect genuine changes rather than mere noise.
- **Signal Trigger:**
- Applies a moving average to the main filter’s output to generate a signal line, compared against predefined entry and exit thresholds.
- Trigger period is adjustable (default: 3 for entry, 5 for exit) to speed up or slow down signals.
- **Square Filter:**
- A hidden feature activated by default, enhancing filter precision by narrowing the range of permissible oscillations, reducing random signals in volatile markets.
4. **Signal Filtering with ADX:**
- ADX is used as a final filter to confirm trend strength before issuing signals:
- **Weak and Medium:** Entry when ADX exceeds 40, exit above 50.
- **High:** Entry above 40, exit above 55.
- **Very High:** Entry above 35, exit above 38.
- These thresholds are adjustable, allowing the indicator to adapt to different trading strategies.
5. **Signal Generation:**
- **Entry:** A buy signal is triggered when signal lines drop below a specific threshold (e.g., -9) and conditions for filters, liquidity, and ADX are met.
- **Exit:** A sell signal is issued when signal lines rise above a threshold (e.g., 109 or 106, depending on the category) with all conditions satisfied.
- Signals are displayed in distinct colors (blue for entry, orange for Weak/Medium, red for High/Very High) and three sizes (small, medium, large).
6. **Result Display:**
- The current liquidity level is shown in a table at the top-right of the chart, enabling users to easily identify the asset’s category.
7. **Alert Support:**
- Instant alerts are provided for each liquidity category, facilitating both automated and manual trading.
#### **Hidden Aspects in the Code**
- **Advanced Filter Equations:** The indicator uses complex mathematical formulas inspired by signal processing to smooth data and extract trends, making it more precise than traditional indicators.
- **Automatic Adaptation:** The system internally adjusts based on price and volume changes, with hidden correction factors (e.g., smoothing coefficients in filters) to maintain stability.
- **Weighted Distribution:** The integration of waves, RSI, and MFI uses fixed weights (40%, 30%, 30%) for balanced analysis, a detail not directly visible but impactful on results.
- **Square Filter:** A hidden option, enabled by default, narrows signal range to minimize dispersion in high-volatility markets.
#### **Indicator Features**
1. **Multi-Layered Filters:** Ensures noise reduction and delivers only reliable signals.
2. **Liquidity Stability:** Daily liquidity measurement keeps classification consistent across timeframes.
3. **Comprehensive Customization:** Allows adjustments to liquidity thresholds, ADX levels, filter periods, and moving average types.
4. **Clear Visual Signals:** User-friendly design with easy-to-read visuals and instant alerts.
5. **Reduced False Signals:** Combining filters and ADX enhances accuracy and minimizes clutter.

Daily Liquidity Peaks and Troughs [ST]Daily Liquidity Peaks and Troughs
Description in English:
This indicator identifies peaks and troughs of highest liquidity on a daily timeframe by analyzing volume data. It helps traders visualize key points of high buying or selling pressure, which could indicate potential reversal or continuation areas.
Detailed Explanation:
Configuration:
Lookback Length: This input defines the period over which the highest high and lowest low are calculated. The default value is 14. This means the script will look at the past 14 bars to determine if the current high or low is a pivot point.
Volume Threshold Multiplier: This input defines the multiplier for the average volume. For example, a multiplier of 1.5 means the volume needs to be 1.5 times the average volume to be considered a significant peak or trough.
Peak Color: This input sets the color for liquidity peaks. The default color is red.
Trough Color: This input sets the color for liquidity troughs. The default color is green.
Volume Calculation:
Average Volume: The script calculates the simple moving average (SMA) of the volume over the lookback period. This helps to identify periods of significantly higher volume.
Volume Threshold: The threshold is determined by multiplying the average volume by the volume threshold multiplier. Only volumes exceeding this threshold are considered significant.
Identifying Peaks and Troughs:
Liquidity Peak: A peak is identified when the current high is the highest high over the lookback period and the current volume exceeds the volume threshold. This indicates a potential area of strong selling pressure.
Liquidity Trough: A trough is identified when the current low is the lowest low over the lookback period and the current volume exceeds the volume threshold. This indicates a potential area of strong buying pressure.
These peaks and troughs are marked on the chart with labels and shapes for easy visualization.
Plotting Peaks and Troughs:
Labels: The script uses labels to mark peaks and troughs on the chart. Peaks are marked with a red label and troughs with a green label.
Shapes: The script plots triangles above peaks and below troughs to highlight these areas visually.
Indicator Benefits:
Liquidity Identification: Helps traders identify key areas of high liquidity, indicating strong buying or selling pressure.
Visual Cues: Provides clear visual signals for potential reversal or continuation points, aiding in making informed trading decisions.
Customizable Parameters: Allows traders to adjust the lookback length and volume threshold to suit different trading strategies and market conditions.
Justification of Component Combination:
Peaks and Troughs Identification: Combining pivot points with volume analysis provides a robust method to identify significant liquidity areas. This helps in detecting potential market reversals or continuations.
Volume Analysis: Utilizing average volume and volume threshold ensures that only significant volume spikes are considered, enhancing the accuracy of identified peaks and troughs.
How Components Work Together:
The script first calculates the average volume over the specified lookback period.
It then checks each bar to see if it qualifies as a liquidity peak or trough based on the highest high, lowest low, and volume threshold.
When a peak or trough is identified, it is marked on the chart with a label and a shape, providing clear visual cues for traders.

ICT Concept [TradingFinder] Order Block | FVG | Liquidity Sweeps🔵 Introduction
The "ICT" style is one of the subsets of "Price Action" technical analysis. ICT is a method created by "Michael Huddleston", a professional forex trader and experienced mentor. The acronym ICT stands for "Inner Circle Trader".
The main objective of the ICT trading strategy is to combine "Price Action" and the concept of "Smart Money" to identify optimal entry points into trades. However, finding suitable entry points is not the only strength of this approach. With the ICT style, traders can better understand price behavior and adapt their trading approach to market structure accordingly.
Numerous concepts are discussed in this style, but the key practical concepts for trading in financial markets include "Order Block," "Liquidity," and "FVG".
🔵 How to Use
🟣Order Block
Order blocks are a specific type of "Supply and Demand" zones formed when a series of orders are placed in a block. These orders could be created by banks or other major players. Banks typically execute large orders in blocks during their trading sessions. If they were to enter the market directly with a small quantity, significant price movements would occur before the orders are fully executed, resulting in less profit. To avoid this, they divide their orders into smaller, manageable positions. Traders should look for "buy" opportunities in "demand order blocks" areas and "sell" opportunities in "supply order blocks".
🟣Liquidity
These levels are where traders aim to exit their trades. "Market Makers" or smart money usually collects or distributes their trading positions near levels where many retail traders have placed their "Stop Loss" orders. When the liquidity resulting from these losses is collected, the price often reverses direction.
A "Stop Hunt" is a move designed to neutralize liquidity generated by triggered stop losses. Banks often use significant news events to trigger stop hunts and acquire the liquidity released in the market. If, for example, they intend to execute heavy buy orders, they encourage others to sell through stop hunts.
As a result, if there is liquidity in the market before reaching the order block region, the credibility of that order block is higher. Conversely, if liquidity is near the order block, meaning the price reaches the order block before reaching the liquidity area, the credibility of that order block is lower.
🟣FVG (Fair Value Gap)
To identify the "Fair Value Gap" on the chart, one must analyze candle by candle. Focus on candles with large bodies, examining one candle and the one before it. The candles before and after this central candle should have long shadows, and their bodies should not overlap with the body of the central candle. The distance between the shadows of the first and third candles is called the FVG range.
These zone function in two ways :
•Supply and Demand zone: In this case, the price reacts to these zone, and its trend reverses.
•Liquidity zone: In this scenario, the price "fills" the zone and then reaches the order block.
Important Note: In most cases, FVG zone with very small width act as supply and demand zone, while zone with a significant width act as liquidity zone, absorbing the price.
🔵 Setting
🟣Order Block
Refine Order Block : When the option for refining order blocks is Off, the supply and demand zones encompass the entire length of the order block (from Low to High) in their standard state and remain unaltered. On the option for refining order blocks triggers the improvement of supply and demand zones using the error correction algorithm.
Refine Type : The enhancement of order blocks via the error correction algorithm can be executed through two methods: Defensive and Aggressive. In the Aggressive approach, the widest possible range is taken into account for order blocks.
Show High Levels : If major high levels are to be displayed, set the option for showing high level to Yes.
Show Low Levels : If major low levels are to be displayed, set the option for showing low level to Yes.
Show Last Support : If showing the last support is desired, set the option for showing last support to Yes.
Show Last Resistance : If showing the last resistance is desired, set the option for showing last resistance to Yes.
🟣 FVG
FVG Filter : When FVG filtering is activated, the number of FVG areas undergoes filtration based on the specified algorithm.
FVG Filter Types :
1. Very Aggressive : Apart from the initial condition, an additional condition is introduced. For an upward FVG, the maximum price of the last candle should exceed the maximum price of the middle candle. Similarly, for a downward FVG, the minimum price of the last candle should be lower than the minimum price of the middle candle. This mode eliminates a minimal number of FVGs.
2. Aggressive : In addition to the conditions of the Very Aggressive mode, this mode considers the size of the middle candle; it should not be small. Consequently, a larger number of FVGs are eliminated in this mode.
3. Defensive : Alongside the conditions of the Very Aggressive mode, this mode takes into account the size of the middle candle, which should be relatively large with the majority of it comprising the body. Furthermore, to identify upward FVGs, the second and third candles must be positive, whereas for downward FVGs, the second and third candles must be negative. This mode filters out a considerable number of FVGs, retaining only those of suitable quality.
4. Very Defensive : In addition to the conditions of the Defensive mode, the first and third candles should not be very small-bodied doji candles. This mode filters out the majority of FVGs, leaving only the highest quality ones. Show Demand FVG: Enables the display of demand-related boxes, which can be toggled between off and on. Show Supply FVG: Enables the display of supply-related boxes along the path, which can also be toggled between off and on.
🟣 Liquidity
Statics Liquidity Line Sensitivity : A value ranging from 0 to 0.4. Increasing this value reduces the sensitivity of the "Statics Liquidity Line Detection" function and increases the number of identified lines. The default value is 0.3.
Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity : A value ranging from 0.4 to 1.95. Increasing this value enhances the sensitivity of the "Dynamics Liquidity Line Detection" function and decreases the number of identified lines. The default value is 1.
Statics Period Pivot : Default value is set to 8. By adjusting this value, you can specify the period for static liquidity line pivots.
Dynamics Period Pivot : Default value is set to 3. By adjusting this value, you can specify the period for dynamic liquidity line pivots.
You can activate or deactivate liquidity lines as necessary using the buttons labeled "Show Statics High Liquidity Line," "Show Statics Low Liquidity Line," "Show Dynamics High Liquidity Line," and "Show Dynamics Low Liquidity Line".
Swing Volume Profiles [LuxAlgo]The Swing Volume Profiles indicator aims to calculate and highlight trading activity at specific price levels between two swing points; allowing traders to reveal dominant and/or significant price levels based on volume.
By measuring traded volume at all price levels in the market over a specified time period, the script can also be used to detect some key analysis generally such as supply & demand, buy-side & sell-side liquidity levels, unfilled liquidity voids, and imbalances that can highlight on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
A volume profile is an advanced charting tool that displays the traded volume at different price levels over a specific period. It helps you visualize where the majority of trading activity has occurred.
Key Levels are the areas where the volume is concentrated or where there are significant volume spikes. These levels are known as key support and resistance levels. High-volume nodes indicate areas of high activity and are likely to act as support or resistance in the future.
Volume profile also helps identify value areas, which represent the price levels where the most trading activity has taken place. These levels can act as areas of support or resistance as traders perceive them as fair value.
The Point of Control describes the price level where the most volume was traded. A Naked Point of Control (also called a Virgin Point of Control) is a previous POC that has not been traded. Extending PoC options 'Until Bar Cross' or 'Until Bar Touch' helps in identifying Naked Point of Control Lines.
Previous PoC levels can serve as support and resistance for future price movements. Extending PoC Level 'Until Last Bar' option will help to identify such levels.
🔶 DETAILS
One of the unique features of the script is its ability to detect some other key levels such as levels of acceptance and rejection.
Levels of rejection we may summarize as supply and demand levels, these are also referred to as buy-side and sell-side liquidity levels. They usually occur at extreme highs or lows, where prices may be too high for buyers (high supply, low demand) or too low for sellers (low supply, high demand)
Levels of acceptance are the levels where Liquidity Voids occur, these are also referred to imbalances. Liquidity voids are sudden changes in price when the price jumps from one level to another. The peculiar thing about liquidity voids is that they almost always fill up, so we call them levels of acceptance.

Alternative Liquidity Void Detection script, Buyside-Sellside-Liquidity
BTCUSD Price prediction based on central bank liquidityIn recent months the idea that Bitcoin prices are increasingly linked to liquidity provided by central banks has gained strength. Multiple opinion leaders in the bitcoin space have shared their thoughts to explain why this is happening and why it makes sense. Some of these people I'm talking about are Preston Pysh, Dr. Jeff Ross, Steven McClurg, Lynn Alden among others.
The reality is that the correlation between market liquidity, measured as Assets held by the Federal Reserve, Bank of Japan and European Central bank, and Bitcoin prices is high. This made me wonder whether a regression between "market liquidity" and BTCUSD prices made sense in order to understand where Bitcoin prices are in relation to the liquidity in the market. After several trials I ended up fitting a polynomial regression of degree 5 between Market Liquidity and BTCUSD prices since 2013. This regression resulted in r-squared value of 90.93%. I initially visualized the results in python notebooks but then I thought it would be cool to be able to see them in real-time in tradingview.
That's where this script comes handy...
This script takes the coefficients and intercept from the polynomial regression I built and applies them to the "market_liquidity" index. In addition, it adds upper and lower bound lines to the prediction based on a 95% confidence interval. As you will see, particularly since 2020, the price of bitcoin has rarely been above or below the lines representing the 95% confidence interval. When price has actually crossed these lines it's been in moments where Bitcoin was highly overbought or oversold. Therefore this indicator could be used to understand when it's a good moment to enter or exit the market based on central bank fundamentals.
Here's the detailed step-by-step description of what the script does
1) It defines the coefficients obtained from running the regression betweeen "market liquidity" and BTCUSD. Market liquidity is defined as:
Market liquidity = FRED:WALCL + FX_IDX:JPYUSD*FRED:JPNASSETS + FX:EURUSD*FRED:ECBASSETSW - FRED:RRPONTSYD - FRED:WTREGEN
2) It defines a scale factor. The reason for this is that coefficients from the regression are very small numbers, given the huge numbers of the value of assets held by central banks. Pinescript doesn't support numbers with many decimals and rounds them to 0, so the coefficients had to be scaled up in order to be able to calculate the regression results.
3) It calculates market liquity with the formula defined above. Market liquidity is calculated in US Dollars.
4) It calculates the predicted BTCUSD price based on the coefficients and the market liquidity values.
5) It scales down the values by the same factor used to scale the coefficients up
6) It defines the standard deviation of the "potential_btcusd_price_scaled" and the actual BTCUSD prices.
7) It defines upper and lower bounds to the BTCUSD price prediction using a z-score of 1.96, which is equivalent to 95% confidence interval.
8) Lastly it plots the BTCUSD price prediction (orange) and the upper (red) and lower(green) confidence intervals.
The script can be updated as the correlation of BTCUSD to central bank assets changes (the slope values can be updated).
How to use it:
When actual BTCUSD price (blue line in the chart) crosses over the red line (upper bound) or crosses under the green line (lower bound) it should be taken as a sign that the price of BTCUSD may be overvalued or undervalued based on the value of assets held by major central banks.

US Net Liquidity + M2 / US Debt (FRED)US Net Liquidity + M2 / US Debt
🧩 What this chart shows
This indicator plots the ratio of US Net Liquidity + M2 Money Supply divided by Total Public Debt.
US Net Liquidity is defined here as the Federal Reserve Balance Sheet (WALCL) minus the Treasury General Account (TGA) and the Overnight Reverse Repo facility (ON RRP).
M2 Money Supply represents the broad pool of liquid money circulating in the economy.
US Debt uses the Federal Government’s total outstanding debt.
By combining net liquidity with M2, then dividing by total debt, this chart provides a structural view of how much monetary “fuel” is in the system relative to the size of the federal debt load.
🧮 Formula

Ratio=
Total Public Debt
(Fed Balance Sheet−(TGA+ON RRP))+M2
An optional normalization feature scales the ratio to start at 100 on the first valid bar, making long-term trends easier to compare.
🔎 Why it matters
Liquidity vs. Debt Growth: The numerator (Net Liquidity + M2) captures the monetary resources available to markets, while the denominator (Debt) reflects the expanding obligation of the federal government.
Market Signal: Historically, shifts in net liquidity and money supply relative to debt have coincided with major turning points in risk assets like equities and Bitcoin.
Context: A rising ratio may suggest that liquidity conditions are improving relative to debt expansion, which can be supportive for risk assets. Conversely, a falling ratio may highlight tightening conditions or debt outpacing liquidity growth.
⚙️ How to use it
Overlay this chart against S&P 500, Bitcoin, or gold to analyze correlations with asset performance.
Watch for trend inflections—does the ratio bottom before equities rally, or peak before risk-off periods?
Use normalization for long historical comparisons, or raw values to see the absolute ratio.
