Advanced Triple Strategy ScalperHere are the three scalping strategies presented in the video "3 Scalping Strategies That Work Every Day (Backtested & Proven)" by Asia Forex Mentor โ Ezekiel Chew:
### Scalperโs Trend Filter (Triple EMA)
This strategy uses three EMAs (25, 50, 100) on the 5-minute chart to filter high-probability trades aligned with momentum .
- Only trade when all three EMAs are angled in the same direction and clearly separated (no crossing or tangling) .
- Enter when price pulls back toward the 25 or 50 EMA and then bounces back toward the 25 EMA, but do not enter if price closes below the 100 EMA .
- Set stop-loss just below the 50 EMA or swing low and aim for a risk-to-reward ratio of 1:1.5 .
### Flip Zone Trap (Reversal Catching)
This method identifies precise reversal moments where market structure shifts from weakness to strength .
- Use the 15-min chart to locate key support or resistance zones where price previously reacted .
- Wait for price to stop making lower lows and begin making higher highs (or vice versa for shorts); confirm with a trendline break AND follow-through (higher lows & highs within 5-7 candles) .
- Use confirmation candles (bullish engulfing, pin bar rejection) at the zone before entry .
### Liquidity Shift Trigger (Smart Money Trap)
This system leverages institutional stop hunts and liquidity sweeps at key zones for sniper entries .
- Start with a 15-min chart to identify structure breaks and points of interest (order blocks, flip zones, demand zones) .
- Drop to 1-min chart and wait for price to enter the refined zone and sweep liquidity (sharp wick/spike below/above key level) .
- Once liquidity is swept, wait for a clean structure shift (break of most recent internal high or low) within 5โ6 candlesโif confirmed, refine entry to the candle that caused the break and enter when price returns to that candle with a strong reaction .
***
### Practical Application
- These strategies are systematic, rule-based, and designed to cut out fake moves, avoid early stop-outs, and align entries with momentum and institutional activity .
- Perfect for short timeframes and volatile pairs like XAUUSD, especially if paired with additional confirmation from other technical analysis tools .
All three strategies emphasize filtering noise, waiting for momentum/trend confirmation, and avoiding impulsive entriesโkey principles for consistent scalping success

Cumulative Volume Delta (HA Option)# **๐ Ultimate Guide to Trading With CVD Heikin Ashi (CVD+)**
## **๐ What This Indicator Shows**
This tool plots **Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)** as candlesticksโoptionally transformed into **Heikin Ashi CVD candles**.
Instead of price, each candle represents the *battle between buyers and sellers* within your chosen timeframe.
**Volume Delta = Buying Volume โ Selling Volume**
CVD takes all deltas and stacks them cumulatively, showing who is controlling the auction *over time*.
With Heikin Ashi smoothing layered on top, trend detection becomes cleaner, letting you see the โtrue pressureโ behind price moves.
---
# **๐ก Why CVD Is a Game Changer**
Most traders only see price.
Serious traders watch **pressure**.
CVD exposes what price hides:
* Absorption
* Hidden accumulation
* Seller exhaustion
* Fake breakouts
* True reversals
* Momentum strength / weakness
* Smart money footprint
When combined with Heikin-Ashi smoothing, you get delta trends with way less noise and fewer fake flips.
---
# **๐ How to Actually Use It (The Edge)**
## **1. Spot True Trend vs. Fake Trend**
If **price goes up** but **CVD goes down**, thatโs:
* Passive sellers absorbing
* A weak rally
* High probability of reversal
If **price pulls back** but **CVD keeps rising**, thatโs:
* Secret accumulation
* A continuation setup
* Great dip-buy opportunity
**Rule of thumb:**
๐น *Follow the CVD trend, not the price noise.*
---
## **2. Catch Reversals Early**
Watch for:
### **๐ป Bearish Reversal Signals**
* CVD makes a **lower high**
* Heikin Ashi CVD prints **red bodies with rising upper shadows**
* Price makes one final push up on low delta
This is classic distribution โ the drop usually follows fast.
### **๐น Bullish Reversal Signals**
* CVD forms a **higher low**
* HA CVD flips from red to green with full bodies
* Price still looks weak = bottom forming
This is exactly how pros catch bottoms early.
---
## **3. Identify Absorption Levels**
If price hits a level multiple times but CVD keeps climbing (or falling), that level is being defended.
Example:
* Price stalls at support
* CVD keeps rising
= **Buyers absorbing sells โ high-probability bounce**
Opposite works for resistance.
---
## **4. Validate Breakouts**
A breakout with *weak or negative CVD* is usually a trap.
A breakout with **strong, rising HA CVD** is real.
If CVD diverges from the breakout direction โ fade it.
If CVD confirms โ ride it.
---
## **5. Use Heikin Ashi to Stay in Trends**
HA smoothing removes the nasty chop of raw delta data.
Look for:
* Consecutive **full-body teal candles = strong buying wave**
* Consecutive **full-body red candles = strong selling wave**
* Small-bodied candles after a trend = momentum dying
This keeps you in winners longer and cuts losers faster.
---
# **๐ฏ Practical Trading Playbook**
### **A) Long Setup**
1. Price pullback into support
2. CVD stays bullish or makes a higher low
3. HA CVD flips green or prints a strong body
4. Enter long
5. Stop under CVD structural low
### **B) Short Setup**
1. Price pushes into resistance
2. CVD forms bearish divergence
3. HA CVD prints red bodies
4. Enter short
5. Stop above CVD swing high
### **C) Chop Filter**
No clear HA CVD trend = avoid trading โ stop donating money to the market.
---
# **๐ง Tips for Mastery**
* Use lower timeframe delta (1mโ5m) for scalping entries
* Use a higher anchor timeframe (1D) to define direction
* When price trends but CVD is flat โ expect a fakeout
* When CVD trends but price is flat โ expect a breakout
* Trade WITH delta, fade AGAINST delta
---
# **โ ๏ธ Important Notes**
* Crypto = full tick-by-tick volume โ CVD is extremely accurate
* Stocks = depends on your broker/data vendor
* Futures = best signal-to-noise ratio
* If your symbol has no volume โ indicator will warn you
---
# **๐ฅ Recommended Settings**
* **Anchor timeframe**: 1D or 4H
* **Lower timeframe**: 1m, 3m, or 5m
* **Heikin Ashi**: ON for trend filtering, OFF for raw delta
---
# **๐ฅ Final Word**
Price can lie.
Delta usually doesnโt.
CVD + Heikin Ashi gives you the closest thing to reading the marketโs heartbeat in real time.
Use it to confirm breakouts, detect reversals early, identify real trend strength, and avoid getting caught in manipulation.
If you learn to read CVD wellโฆ
you stop trading price, and start trading the **intent** behind the price.
Previous Day Candle [ApexFX]Previous Day Candle is a precision tool designed for intraday traders who rely on previous daily structures to find support and resistance.
While most indicators simply mark the previous high and low, this tool focuses on Session Continuity. It highlights the full 24-hour range of the previous day and extends those levels into the "Killzone" of the current trading day (up to 2:00 PM EST / 12:00 PM MST).
Why use this? Market reaction often occurs at the previous day's extremes. By extending these lines into the current session, you can easily spot:
Breakouts: Price pushing through yesterday's high.
Failed Auctions: Price sweeping yesterday's low and reversing.
Support/Resistance Flips: Old highs becoming new support.
Main Features:
Asset Class Presets: Don't worry about timezones. Simply select your market:
Forex: Aligns to the standard 5:00 PM EST New York Open.
Indices: Aligns to the 6:00 PM EST Globex Open.
Crypto: Aligns to UTC Midnight.
Custom: Full manual control for specific needs.
Visual "Boxing": Vertical dotted lines clearly demarcate the start and end of the previous trading day.
Dynamic History: Choose to show just yesterday's levels or look back at the last 5+ days.
Smart Color Coding: The indicator automatically cycles colors for each day (Blue = Yesterday, Green = 2 Days Ago, etc.), making it instant to read historical price action.
Best Used On: Intraday timeframes (5m, 15m, 1h).
Hash Momentum IndicatorHash Momentum Indicator
Overview
The Hash Momentum Indicator provides real-time momentum-based trading signals with visual entry/exit markers and automatic risk management levels. This is the indicator version of the popular Hash Momentum Strategy, designed for traders who want signal alerts without backtesting functionality.
Perfect for: Live trading, automation via alerts, multi-indicator setups, and clean chart visualization.
What Makes This Indicator Special
1. Pure Momentum-Based Signals
Captures price acceleration in real-time - not lagging moving average crossovers. Enters when momentum exceeds a dynamic ATR-based threshold, catching moves as they begin accelerating.
2. Automatic Risk Management Visualization
Every signal automatically displays:
Entry level (white dashed line)
Stop loss level (red line)
Take profit target (green line)
Partial TP levels (dotted green lines)
3. Smart Trade Management
Trade Cooldown: Prevents overtrading by enforcing waiting period between signals
EMA Trend Filter: Only trades with the trend (optional)
Session Filters: Trade only during Tokyo/London/New York sessions (optional)
Weekend Toggle: Avoid low-liquidity weekend periods (optional)
4. Clean Visual Design
๐ข Tiny green dot = Long entry signal
๐ด Tiny red dot = Short entry signal
๐ต Blue X = Long exit
๐ Orange X = Short exit
No cluttered labels or dashboard - just clean signals
5. Professional Alerts Ready
Set up TradingView alerts for:
Long signals
Short signals
Long exits
Short exits
How It Works
Step 1: Calculate Momentum
Momentum = Current Price - Price
Normalized by standard deviation for consistency

Step 2: Confirm Acceleration
Momentum must be increasing (positive momentum change)
Price must be moving in signal direction
Step 3: Apply Filters
EMA Filter: Long only above EMA, short only below EMA (if enabled)
Session Filter: Check if in allowed trading session (if enabled)
Weekend Filter: Block signals on Sat/Sun (if enabled)
Cooldown: Ensure minimum bars passed since last signal
Step 4: Generate Signal
All conditions met = Entry signal fires
Lines automatically drawn for entry, stop, and targets
Step 5: Exit Detection
Opposite momentum detected = Exit signal
Stop loss or take profit hit = Exit signal

TICK & ADD Market Internals SuiteOverview: This is the ultimate Market Internals tool designed for professional SPX/ES and NQ intraday traders.
Traders often monitor both TICK (for short-term timing) and ADD (for daily trend context). However, displaying them on the same chart is usually problematic due to their different scales (TICK ยฑ1000 vs. ADD ยฑ2000), causing chart compression.
Market Internals Suite solves this with a smart "Visual Scaling" algorithm, perfectly fusing TICK Candles and the ADD Line into a single, coherent pane.
Key Features
1.Hybrid Visualization:
ยท TICK (Foreground): Displayed as OHLC Candles to capture instant liquidity sweeps and wicks.
ยท ADD (Background): Displayed as a clean Line to show the underlying market breadth trend without clutter.
2.Smart Visual Scaling:
ยท To prevent chart distortion, the ADD line is visually scaled down (Default Ratio: 1.5).
ยท This aligns the ADD trend volatility with the TICK range, allowing you to instantly spot divergences or resonance between sentiment and trend.
3.Real-Time Data Dashboard:
ยท Never lose track of the actual numbers. A dashboard in the top-right corner displays the TRUE values for both TICK and ADD (unscaled).
ยท Customizable Text Size: You can adjust the dashboard font size (Small/Normal/Large/Huge) in the settings to fit your screen.
4.TICK Extreme Alerts:
ยท Visual Highlight: The chart background highlights (Green/Red) only when TICK hits the extreme ยฑ1000 levels.
ยท The ADD line remains clean and alert-free to serve as a stable reference.
Strategy: Context + Timing:
1.Trend Resonance
When the ADD line trends upward and TICK candles consistently maintain levels above zero, it indicates a healthy, strong trend. This is a signal to look for trend-following long setups.
2.Divergence Analysis (The "Holy Grail" Signal)
This combination view makes spotting internal divergences incredibly easy:
ยท Bearish Divergence: When Price makes a New High, but the ADD line or TICK peaks make a Lower High. This suggests buying exhaustion beneath the surface and often precedes a reversal down.
ยท Bullish Divergence: When Price makes a New Low, but the ADD line or TICK lows make a Higher Low. This suggests that selling pressure is being absorbed, signaling a potential bounce or reversal up.
BOS/CHOCH Demand & SupplyThis indicator automatically identifies and plots Supply and Demand zones based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC) methodology. It detects structural breaks in price action and marks the origin zones that initiated these moves.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
1. Swing Point Detection
The indicator uses Pine Script's ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to identify swing highs and lows. Users can input multiple lookback periods (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 5, 11, 15, 20) to detect structure across different timeframe perspectives simultaneously.
2. Break of Structure (BOS) Detection
A Bullish BOS is confirmed when:
Current candle closes above the last swing high
Previous candle's high was still below that swing high
The current swing high is higher than the previous swing high (trend continuation)
A Bearish BOS is confirmed when:
Current candle closes below the last swing low
Previous candle's low was still above that swing low
The current swing low is lower than the previous swing low (trend continuation)
3. Change of Character (CHOCH) Detection
A Bullish CHOCH is confirmed when:
Price breaks above the last swing high
But that swing high was lower than the previous swing high (potential reversal signal)
A Bearish CHOCH is confirmed when:
Price breaks below the last swing low
But that swing low was higher than the previous swing low (potential reversal signal)
4. Inducement / Liquidity Grab Filter (Optional)
When enabled, zones are only drawn if the swing point that created them first grabbed liquidity from the previous swing:
For Demand zones: The swing low must have traded below the previous swing low before the bullish break
For Supply zones: The swing high must have traded above the previous swing high before the bearish break
This filter helps identify higher-probability zones where stop-losses were likely triggered before the move.
5. Zone Construction
Demand Zone (Bullish):
Top boundary: max(open, close) of the swing low candle
Bottom boundary: low of the swing low candle
Supply Zone (Bearish):
Top boundary: high of the swing high candle
Bottom boundary: min(open, close) of the swing high candle
This captures the candle body-to-wick range where institutional orders likely reside.
6. Zone Lifecycle Management
Active Zone: Displayed in green (demand) or red (supply)
Mitigated Zone: When price touches the zone but doesn't break it, the zone turns gray (indicating partial fill)
Broken Zone: When price fully breaks through the zone, it is automatically deleted from the chart
How to Use
Demand Zones (Green): Look for long entries when price returns to these zones. The zone represents where buying pressure previously overcame selling.
Supply Zones (Red): Look for short entries when price returns to these zones. The zone represents where selling pressure previously overcame buying.
BOS Zones: Indicate trend continuation - trade in the direction of the break.
CHOCH Zones: Indicate potential reversal - these are early warning signals of trend change.
Enable "Require Inducement" for higher-quality setups where liquidity was grabbed before the structural break.
Multi-Lookback Periods: Using multiple values helps identify zones across different structural levels. Smaller values catch minor structure; larger values catch major structure.
Disclaimer
This indicator is a technical analysis tool and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management.
3 day look backThis script is designed to help traders visually compare daily liquidity behavior between two correlated assets โ for example, the Nasdaq (NQ) and the S&P500 (ES).
It plots each dayโs High and Low, aligned from Midnight to Midnight, with a clean session structure. This makes it easier to identify:
SMT (Smart Money Technique) divergences
liquidity grabs
daily highs/lows sweeps
relative strength/weakness between assets
intraday bias shifts based on daily structure
What the script does
Reconstructs each trading day from 00:00 to 00:00, regardless of session irregularities.
Plots the High and Low of every completed day.
Allows users to display as many past days as they want (custom โlook-backโ parameter).
Automatically merges the weekend with Friday for assets where Saturday/Sunday sessions are fragmented.
Includes a manual midnight offset (โ12h to +12h) to fix timezone inconsistencies on TradingView charts (common on futures).
Optional real-time lines for the current day.
No excessive right-side extensions for clean intraday reading.
Why this is useful
When comparing paired assets (e.g., NQ vs ES), liquidity behavior is often different.
This script makes it easy to spot:
when one asset makes a new daily high while the other doesnโt
asymmetrical liquidity sweeps
SMT-based divergence setups
liquidity grabs at daily levels
intraday directional bias shifts
About the other indicators shown on the chart
In the example chart, two additional indicators are used only for clarity and structure:
Day of the Week โ displays the weekday on each session for easier orientation.
Vertical Line Timeline โ draws a clean separator line between days.
These indicators are not required for this High/Low script to work.
They simply help visually organize sessions and make daily structure easier to read when comparing two assets side by side.
How to use
Open two assets (e.g., NQ1! and ES1!) side by side.
Apply this script on both charts.
Set the same timeframe.
Choose how many days back you want to visualize (look-back parameter).
Observe how each asset interacts with its daily High/Low.
Look for SMT divergences and liquidity-based setups.
Main features
Midnight-to-Midnight alignment
Weekend fusion
Manual offset for perfect timing
Adjustable daily look-back
Clean daily liquidity
Optional dynamic daily levels
Ideal for SMT/liquidity-based intraday trading
Weekly price boxWeekend Trap / Custom Timebox Analyzer
This indicator allows traders to define a specific time window (e.g., the "Weekend Trap" period from Friday to Sunday, or a full weekly range) and automatically draws a box highlighting the price action during that session. It is designed to help visualize gaps, ranges, and trend direction over specific timeframes.
Key Features
Dynamic Range Detection: automatically draws a box connecting the Highest High and Lowest Low occurring between your start and end times.
Trend Visualization: The box changes color dynamically based on price performance:
Bullish (Blue): Close is higher than the Open of the defined period.
Bearish (Red): Close is lower than the Open of the defined period.
Smart Labeling: Displays a customizable label (default: "Box") along with the real-time Percentage Change of the period. The label is positioned intelligently outside the box to avoid cluttering the price action.
Flexible Timing:
Supports standard intraday sessions (e.g., Mon 09:00 to Mon 17:00).
Supports "wrap-around" sessions (e.g., Friday 23:00 to Sunday 17:00).
New: Supports full-week monitoring (e.g., Friday to Friday) by handling start times that are later than end times on the same day.
Fully Customizable:
Configure specific Bullish and Bearish colors (Border, Background, Text).
Adjust line styles (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) and widths.
Select days via easy-to-use dropdown menus.
How to Use
Time Settings:
Select your Start Day and Time (e.g., Friday 23:00).
Select your End Day and Time (e.g., Sunday 17:00).
Note: Times are based on the Chart/Exchange time.
Visual Settings:
Go to the settings menu to define your preferred colors for Bullish and Bearish scenarios.
Toggle the Label on/off and adjust text size.
Use Cases
Weekend Gaps: Monitor price action that occurs during off-hours or between market close and open.
Opening Range Breakouts: Define the first hour of trading to see the initial range.
Weekly Profiles: Set the start and end day to the same day (e.g., Friday to Friday) to visualize the entire week's range and net performance.

Cjack COT IndexHere's the updated description with the formula and additional context:
---
**Cjack COT Index - Commitment of Traders Positioning Indicator**
This indicator transforms raw Commitment of Traders (COT) data into normalized 0-100 index values, making it easy to identify extreme positioning across different trader categories.
**How It Works:**
The indicator calculates a min-max normalized index for three trader groups over your chosen lookback period (default 26 weeks):
- **Large Speculators** (Non-commercial positions) - typically trend followers
- **Small Speculators** (Non-reportable positions) - retail traders
- **Commercial Hedgers** - producers and consumers hedging business risk
The normalization formula is: **Index = (Current Position - Minimum Position) / (Maximum Position - Minimum Position) ร 100**
This calculation shows where current net positioning sits between the minimum and maximum levels observed in the lookback window. A reading of 100 means current positioning equals the maximum net long over that period, 0 equals the minimum (most net short), and 50 is the midpoint of the range.
**Important:** The lookback period critically affects index readings - shorter lookbacks (13-26 weeks) make the index more sensitive to recent extremes, while longer lookbacks (52-78 weeks) provide broader historical context and identify truly exceptional positioning. Min-max normalization is essential because it makes positioning comparable across different contracts and time periods, regardless of the absolute size of positions.
**What It's Good For:**
The indicator excels at identifying **crowded trades** and potential reversals by tracking contrarian setups where commercials (smart money) position opposite to speculators. Background highlighting automatically flags:
- **Long setups** (green): Commercials heavily long while speculators are heavily short
- **Short setups** (red): Commercials heavily short while speculators are heavily long
The "Shift Index" option (enabled by default) displays last week's tradeable COT data aligned with current price action, ensuring you're working with actionable information since COT reports publish with a delay.
Works on weekly timeframes and below for commodities and futures with available COT data.
Liquidity Sweep + BOS Retest System โ Prop Firm Edition๐ฆ Liquidity Sweep + BOS Retest System โ Prop Firm Edition
A High-Probability Smart Money Strategy Built for NQ, ES, and Funding Accounts
๐ Overview
The Liquidity Sweep + BOS Retest System (Prop Firm Edition) is a precision-engineered SMC strategy built specifically for prop firm traders. It mirrors institutional liquidity behavior and combines it with strict account-safe entry rules to help traders pass and maintain funding accounts with consistency.
Unlike typical indicators, this system waits for three confirmations โ liquidity sweep, displacement, and a clean retest โ before executing any trade. Every component is optimized for low drawdown, high R:R, and prop-firm-approved risk management.
Whether youโre trading Apex, TakeProfitTrader, FFF, or OneUp Trader, this system gives you a powerful mechanical framework that keeps you within rules while identifying the marketโs highest-probability reversal zones.
๐ฅ Key Features
1. Liquidity Sweep Detection (Stop Hunt Logic)
Automatically identifies when price clears a previous swing high/low with a sweep confirmation candle.
โ Filters noise
โ Eliminates early entries
โ Locks onto true liquidity grabs
2. Automatic Break of Structure (BOS) Confirmation
Price must show true displacement by breaking structure opposite the sweep direction.
โ Confirms momentum shift
โ Removes fake reversals
โ Ensures institutional intent
3. Precision Retest Entry Model
The strategy enters only when price retests the BOS level at premium/discount pricing.
โ Zero chasing
โ Extremely tight stop loss placement
โ Prop-firm-friendly controlled risk
4. Built-In Risk & Trade Management
SL set at swept liquidity
TP set by user-defined R:R multiplier
Optional session filter (NY Open by default)
One trade at a time (no pyramiding)
Automatically resets logic after each trade
This prevents overtrading โ the #1 cause of evaluation and account breaches.
5. Designed for Prop Firm Futures Trading
This script is optimized for:
Trailing/static drawdown accounts
Micro contract precision
Funding evaluations
Low-risk, high-probability setups
Structured, rule-based execution
It reduces randomness and emotional trading by automating the highest-quality SMC sequence.
๐ฏ The Trading Model Behind the System
Step 1 โ Liquidity Sweep
Price must take out a recent high/low and close back inside structure.
This confirms stop-hunting behavior and marks the beginning of a potential reversal.
Step 2 โ BOS (Break of Structure)
Price must break the opposite side swing with a displacement candle. This validates a directional shift.
Step 3 โ Retest Entry
The system waits for price to retrace into the BOS level and signal continuation.
This creates optimal R:R entry with minimal drawdown.

๐ What this indicator does
This script automatically finds and maintains high-quality support & resistance zones on your chart, so you donโt have to keep redrawing levels by hand.
It:
โข Detects major swing highs and lows (pivots)
โข Builds support and resistance zones (not just thin lines)
โข Filters out overlapping / redundant levels
โข Tracks how price interacts with those zones in real time
โข Marks and alerts:
โข โ
Breakouts
โข ๐จ False breakouts
โข ๐ Retests
โข Flips broken support โ resistance and resistance โ support automatically
You get a clean structural map of the market, continuously updated.
โธป
๐ง How levels are built (conceptually)
1. The indicator looks back over a configurable window and finds significant highs and lows (pivots).
2. From each confirmed pivot, it creates:
โข A core level price (horizontal line)
โข A price area around it (shaded zone), sized relative to recent price range/volatility
3. It then checks for overlaps between existing levels and new candidates:
โข If a new level is too close to an existing one (within your overlap threshold), it gets discarded.
โข This keeps only the most meaningful, non-redundant levels on the chart.
4. A cap of around 10 levels per side (support / resistance) keeps the view readable.
The result: a curated set of zones that actually matter, not a wall of lines.
โธป
๐จ Visuals on the chart
Youโll see:
โข Support zones
โข Line: bullish color (default green)
โข Area: semi-transparent band below/around the line
โข Resistance zones
โข Line: bearish color (default red)
โข Area: semi-transparent band above/around the line
Colors are customizable for:
โข Level line
โข Zone area
โข Breakout highlight
โข Retest label
This makes it easy to visually separate support vs resistance and quickly spot key reactions.
โธป
โก Dynamic behavior & level lifecycle
Each level goes through a natural โlife cycle,โ which the indicator tracks for you:
1. Active zone
โข The level is valid and extended to the right as long as price stays โengagedโ with it (using smoothed highs/lows to avoid noise).
2. Extension / pause
โข When price pulls away from the level far enough, the extension can temporarily stop so the level doesnโt stretch indefinitely without interaction.
โข If price comes back into the zone with meaningful action, the level can resume extension.
3. Break & role reversal
โข When price cleanly breaks the level (based on smoothed price, not just a wick), the zone is:
โข Stopped and locked in place
โข Marked as broken
โข Immediately cloned and flipped:
โข Broken support becomes a new resistance zone at the same area.
โข Broken resistance becomes a new support zone.
This gives you automatic role-reversal levels without manually redrawing anything.

The indicator tracks three key interactions with each zone:
1. Breakouts (optional)
When price decisively breaks a level:
โข A small breakout label appears on/near the level:
โข Support broken โ bearish breakout style
โข Resistance broken โ bullish breakout style
โข An alert message is fired (if alerts are enabled on the script)
Use this to catch true structural breaks that may signal trend continuation or regime change.
โธป
2. False breakouts (optional)
False breakouts are marked when price:
โข Wicks through a level, but
โข Fails to close beyond it and quickly returns inside the zone
When detected:
โข A ๐จ FB label appears at the level
โข The label tracks with price while the false breakout is active
โข An alert can fire each time this behavior is confirmed
This is very useful for reversal traders and anyone fading failed breakouts.
โธป
3. Retests (optional)
Retests are detected when:
โข Price re-enters a zone after previously moving away from it
โข The candle comes back into the area for the first time in this new approach
The script:
โข Marks the retest with a โTโ label in a distinct color for support vs resistance
โข Brings that level to the top of the internal priority list, keeping fresh retests visually and logically โhotโ
Traders often use these as high-probability reaction points (e.g., breakout โ retest โ continuation).
โธป
โ๏ธ Key settings
All inputs are grouped for clarity:
Support / Resistance Levels
โข Pivots Lookback
Controls how far back the indicator looks for swing highs/lows.
โข Higher value โ fewer, stronger levels
โข Lower value โ more reactive, more levels
โข Overlap Multiplier (Pips)
Sets how aggressively overlapping levels are merged/ignored.
โข Higher value โ fewer levels, more consolidation
โข Lower value โ more granular levels
โข Auto Overlap
When enabled, the script automatically adjusts the overlap threshold based on timeframe:
โข Intraday lower timeframes โ tighter filtering
โข Higher/intra-session โ more appropriate scaling
This lets you drop the indicator on multiple timeframes without constantly retuning.
โธป
Level Event Toggles
โข Breakout Labels & Alerts (on/off)
โข False Breakout Labels & Alerts (on/off)
โข Retest Labels & Alerts (on/off)
Turn on only what fits your style.
Scalpers might want all three; swing traders may prefer only breakouts + retests.
โธป
Support / Resistance Colors
Separate color groups for:
โข Line & area of support levels
โข Line & area of resistance levels
โข Visual styling for breakouts
โข Visual styling for retests
You can match your existing chart theme or build a dedicated SR layout.
โธป
๐ How to use it in your trading
Here are a few practical ways to integrate this indicator:
โข Context map
Use it as a structural overlay on any symbol/timeframe to see where price is likely to react.
โข Breakout + retest setups
โข Wait for a level to break with a breakout label.
โข Then watch for a T (retest) label into the flipped zone.
โข Combine with your own confirmation (price action, volume, oscillators, etc.).
โข Mean-reversion & fade trades
โข Hunt for false breakout (FB) labels on key levels.
โข These are often good spots to fade aggressive moves that lose momentum.
โข Confluence builder
โข Combine zones with trend tools, VR/DC, moving averages, or higher timeframe structure.
โข A breakout/retest at a level that also lines up with higher TF structure can be especially meaningful.
โธป
โ
Summary
Support & Resistance Levels (SR-v1.100) is designed to be:
โข Clean โ no cluttered spaghetti of lines
โข Adaptive โ zones evolve with the market and flip roles automatically
โข Actionable โ breakout, false breakout, and retest events are clearly marked and alert-ready
โข Flexible โ works on any market and timeframe with simple, intuitive inputs
Drop it on your chart, tune the lookback & overlap to your style, and let it handle the heavy lifting of structural mapping while you focus on decisions.
Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure UT Plus Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure: All-in-One Smart Trading Indicator
๐ก Summary: This Indicator is designed as a powerful All-in-One analysis tool, consolidating 4 crucial trading strategies: Delta Zones (Extreme Pressure), Orderblocks & Breaker Blocks (Market Structure), Multi-Indicator Signals (RSI/CCI/Stoch), and UT Bot Alerts (Trend Signals). It provides a comprehensive trading setup on a single chart.
๐ Key Features:
Delta Zones (Extreme Buy/Sell Pressure): Utilizes Standard Deviation to spot candles with abnormal Buy/Sell Pressure, often indicating institutional activity or stop hunts.
Orderblocks & Breaker Blocks: Automatically analyzes Market Structure Shifts (MSS) to draw Orderblocks and convert them into Breaker Blocks, serving as key support/resistance zones.
Multi-Indicator Signals (RSI/CCI/Stoch): Provides confirmed Buy/Sell signals when RSI, CCI, and Stochastic are in Oversold/Overbought conditions and show reversal action (Users can select the combination).
UT Bot Alerts: Includes a ATR-based Trailing Stop system and secondary Buy/Sell signals for trend confirmation.
๐ How to Use:
Use the "BUY/SELL" signals from the Multi-Indicator section as the primary trigger.
Use the Delta Zones or Orderblocks/Breaker Blocks as high-confidence confirmation zones for entry/exit, and as precise Stop Loss placement areas.
โ ๏ธ Note on Performance: This Indicator uses complex logic (especially Array and Box drawing functions) and may be resource-intensive on lower timeframes.
Global M2 Money Supply Growth (GDP-Weighted)๐ Global M2 Money Supply Growth (GDP-Weighted)
This indicator tracks the weighted aggregate M2 money supply growth across the world's four largest economies: United States, China, Eurozone, and Japan. These economies represent approximately 69.3 trillion USD in combined GDP and account for the majority of global liquidity, making this a comprehensive macro indicator for analyzing worldwide monetary conditions.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ง KEY FEATURES:
๐ GDP-Weighted Aggregation
Each economy is weighted proportionally by its nominal GDP using 2025 IMF World Economic Outlook data:
โข United States: 44.2% (30.62 trillion USD)
โข China: 28.0% (19.40 trillion USD)
โข Eurozone: 21.6% (15.0 trillion USD)
โข Japan: 6.2% (4.28 trillion USD)
The weights are fully adjustable through the indicator settings, allowing you to update them annually as new IMF forecasts are released (typically April and October).
โฑ๏ธ Multiple Time Period Options
Choose between three calculation methods to analyze different timeframes:
โข YoY (Year-over-Year): 12-month growth rate for identifying long-term liquidity trends and cycles
โข MoM (Month-over-Month): 1-month growth rate for detecting short-term monetary policy shifts
โข QoQ (Quarter-over-Quarter): 3-month growth rate for medium-term trend analysis
๐ Advanced Offset Function
Shift the entire indicator forward by 0-365 days to test lead/lag relationships between global liquidity and asset prices. Research suggests a 56-70 day lag between M2 changes and Bitcoin price movements, but you can experiment with different offsets for various assets (equities, gold, commodities, etc.).
๐ Individual Country Breakdown
Real-time display of each economy's M2 growth rate with:
โข Current percentage change (YoY/MoM/QoQ)
โข GDP weight contribution
โข Color-coded values (green = monetary expansion, red = contraction)
๐ Smart Overlay Capability
Displays directly on your main price chart with an independent left-side scale, allowing you to visually correlate global liquidity trends with any asset's price action without cluttering the chart.
๐ง Customizable GDP Weights
All GDP values can be adjusted through the indicator settings without editing code, making annual updates simple and accessible for all users.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ก DATA SOURCES:
All M2 money supply data is sourced from ECONOMICS (Trading Economics) for consistency and reliability:
โข ECONOMICS:USM2 (United States)
โข ECONOMICS:CNM2 (China)
โข ECONOMICS:EUM2 (Eurozone)
โข ECONOMICS:JPM2 (Japan)
All values are normalized to USD using current daily exchange rates (USDCNY, EURUSD, USDJPY) before GDP-weighted aggregation, ensuring accurate cross-country comparisons.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ก USE CASES & APPLICATIONS:
๐น Liquidity Cycle Analysis
Track global monetary expansion/contraction cycles to identify when central banks are coordinating loose or tight monetary policies.
๐น Market Timing & Risk Assessment
High M2 growth (>10%) historically correlates with risk-on environments and rising asset prices across crypto, equities, and commodities. Negative M2 growth signals monetary tightening and potential market corrections.
๐น Bitcoin & Crypto Correlation
Compare with Bitcoin price using the offset feature to identify the optimal lag period. Many traders use 60-70 day offsets to predict crypto market movements based on liquidity changes.
๐น Macro Portfolio Allocation
Use as a regime filter to adjust portfolio exposure: increase risk assets during liquidity expansion, reduce during contraction.
๐น Central Bank Policy Divergence
Monitor individual country metrics to identify when major central banks are pursuing divergent policies (e.g., Fed tightening while China eases).
๐น Inflation & Economic Forecasting
Rapid M2 growth often leads inflation by 12-18 months, making this a leading indicator for future inflation trends.
๐น Recession Early Warning
Negative M2 growth is extremely rare and has preceded major recessions, making this a valuable risk management tool.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ INTERPRETATION GUIDE:
๐ข +10% or Higher
Aggressive monetary expansion, typically during crises (2001, 2008, 2020). The COVID-19 period saw M2 growth reach 20-27%, which preceded significant inflation and asset price surges. Strong bullish signal for risk assets.
๐ข +6% to +10%
Above-average liquidity growth. Central banks are providing stimulus beyond normal levels. Generally favorable for equities, crypto, and commodities.
๐ก +3% to +6%
Normal/healthy growth rate, roughly in line with GDP growth plus 2% inflation targets. Neutral environment with moderate support for risk assets.
๐ 0% to +3%
Slowing liquidity, potential tightening phase beginning. Central banks may be raising rates or reducing balance sheets. Caution warranted for high-beta assets.
๐ด Negative Growth
Monetary contraction - extremely rare. Only occurred during aggressive Fed tightening in 2022-2023. Strong warning signal for risk assets, often precedes recessions or major market corrections.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ฏ OPTIMAL USAGE:
๐
Recommended Timeframes:
โข Daily or Weekly charts for macro analysis
โข Monthly charts for very long-term trends
๐น Compatible Asset Classes:
โข Cryptocurrencies (especially Bitcoin, Ethereum)
โข Equity indices (S&P 500, NASDAQ, global markets)
โข Commodities (Gold, Silver, Oil)
โข Forex majors (DXY correlation analysis)
โ๏ธ Suggested Settings:
โข Default: YoY calculation with 0 offset for current liquidity conditions
โข Bitcoin traders: YoY with 60-70 day offset for predictive analysis
โข Short-term traders: MoM with 0 offset for recent policy changes
โข Quarterly rebalancers: QoQ with 0 offset for medium-term trends
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ VISUAL DISPLAY:
The indicator plots a blue line showing the selected growth metric (YoY/MoM/QoQ), with a dashed reference line at 0% to clearly identify expansion vs. contraction regimes.
A comprehensive table in the top-right corner displays:
โข Current global M2 growth rate (large, prominent display)
โข Individual country breakdowns with their GDP weights
โข Color-coded growth rates (green for positive, red for negative)
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ MAINTENANCE & UPDATES:
GDP weights should be updated annually (ideally in April or October) when the IMF releases new World Economic Outlook forecasts. Simply adjust the four GDP input parameters in the indicator settings - no code editing required.
The relative GDP proportions between the Big 4 economies change very gradually (typically <1-2% per year), so even if you update weights once every 1-2 years, the impact on the indicator's accuracy is minimal.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ญ TRADING PHILOSOPHY:
This indicator embodies the principle that "liquidity drives markets." By tracking the combined M2 money supply of the world's largest economies, weighted by their economic size, you gain insight into the fundamental liquidity conditions that underpin all asset prices.
Unlike single-country M2 indicators, this GDP-weighted approach captures the true global picture, accounting for the fact that US monetary policy has 2x the impact of Japanese policy due to economic size differences.
Perfect for macro-focused traders, long-term investors, and anyone seeking to understand the "tide that lifts all boats" in financial markets.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Created for traders and investors who incorporate global liquidity trends into their decision-making process. Best used alongside other technical and fundamental analysis tools for comprehensive market assessment.
โ ๏ธ Disclaimer: M2 money supply is a lagging macroeconomic indicator. Past correlations do not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management and combine with other analysis methods.

ICS๐๏ธ Institutional Confluence Suite (ICS) Indicator
The Institutional Confluence Suite is a powerful and highly customizable TradingView indicator built to help traders identify key institutional trading concepts across multiple timeframes. It visualizes essential market components like Market Structures (MS), Order Blocks (OB)/Breaker Blocks (BB), Liquidity Zones, and Volume Profile, providing a confluence of institutional price action data.
๐ Key Features & Components
1. Market Structures (MS)
Purpose: Automatically identifies and labels shifts in market trends (Market Structure Shift, MSS) and continuations (Break of Structure, BOS).
Timeframe Detection: You can select detection across Short Term, Intermediate Term, or Long Term swings to match your trading horizon.
Visualization: Plots colored lines (Bullish: Teal, Bearish: Red) to mark the structures and optional text labels (BOS/MSS) for clear identification.
2. Order & Breaker Blocks (OB/BB)
Purpose: Detects and projects potential Supply and Demand zones based on recent price action that led to a swing high or low.
Block Types: Distinguishes between standard Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks (OBs that fail to hold and are traded through, often serving as support/resistance in the opposite direction).
Customization:
Detection Term: Adjusts sensitivity (Short, Intermediate, Long Term).
Display Limit: Sets the maximum number of recent Bullish and Bearish blocks to display.
Price Reference: Option to use the Candle Body (Open/Close) or Candle Wicks (High/Low) to define the block boundaries.
Visualization: Displays blocks as colored boxes (Bullish: Green, Bearish: Red) extending into the future, with a dotted line marking the 50% equilibrium level. Breaker Blocks are indicated by a change in color/line style upon being broken.
3. Buyside & Sellside Liquidity (BSL/SSL)
Purpose: Highlights areas where retail stops/limit orders are likely clustered, often represented by a series of relatively equal highs (Buyside Liquidity) or lows (Sellside Liquidity).
Detection Term: Adjustable sensitivity (Short, Intermediate, Long Term).
Margin: Uses a margin (derived from ATR) to group similar swing points into a single liquidity zone.
Visualization: Plots a line and text label marking the swing point, and a box indicating the clustered liquidity zone.
4. Liquidity Voids (LV) / Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Purpose: Identifies areas where price moved sharply and inefficiency was created, often referred to as Fair Value Gaps or Imbalances. These are price ranges where minimal trading volume occurred.
Threshold: Uses a multiplier applied to the 200-period ATR to filter for significant gaps.
Mode: Can be set to Present (only show voids near the current price) or Historical (show all detected voids).
Visualization: Fills the price gap with colored boxes (Bullish/Bearish zones), often segmented to represent the price delivery across the gap.
5. Enhanced Liquidity Detection
Purpose: A complementary feature that uses volume and price action to highlight areas of high liquidity turnover, potentially indicating stronger Support and Resistance zones.
Calculation: Utilizes a volume-weighted approach to color-grade liquidity zones based on their significance.
Visualization: Plots shaded boxes (gradient-colored) around swing highs/lows, with text displaying the normalized volume strength.
6. Swing Highs/Lows
Purpose: Directly marks the price points identified as Swing Highs and Swing Lows based on the lookback periods.
Timeframe Detection: Can be enabled for Short Term, Intermediate Term, or Long Term swings.
Visualization: Plots a small colored dot/label (e.g., "โฆ") at the swing point.
This indicator is an invaluable tool for traders employing ICT (Inner Circle Trader), Smart Money Concepts (SMC), or general price action strategies, as it automatically aggregates and displays these critical structural and liquidity elements.
MACD Divergence Optimizer# MACD Divergence Optimizer - User Guide
## Overview
The **MACD Divergence Optimizer** is a professional-grade technical analysis indicator for TradingView that automatically detects hidden divergences on MACD with volume weighting. It identifies potential reversal points before price action confirms the move, giving traders an early edge.
---
## What is Divergence?
A **divergence** occurs when price and an oscillator (like MACD) move in opposite directions:
- **Bullish Divergence**: Price makes a lower low, but MACD makes a higher low โ Potential uptrend reversal
- **Bearish Divergence**: Price makes a higher high, but MACD makes a lower high โ Potential downtrend reversal
Divergences are among the most reliable reversal signals in technical analysis.
---
## Indicator Features
### Volume-Weighted MACD
- Standard MACD is calculated on closing price
- This indicator uses **volume-weighted closing prices** for greater accuracy
- Formula: MACD = (Volume-Weighted EMAโโ - Volume-Weighted EMAโโ)
- Volume weighting gives more importance to high-conviction price moves
### Automatic Swing Detection
- Detects local highs and lows (5-bar lookback)
- Tracks the last 5 swings for divergence analysis
- Only meaningful swings are tracked (filtered for noise)
### Smart Signal Generation
- Green triangle (โฒ) = Bullish Divergence (BUY signal)
- Red triangle (โผ) = Bearish Divergence (SELL signal)
- Triangles appear directly on the MACD line for precise entry timing
### Built-in Alerts
- Real-time notifications for divergence signals
- Alerts can trigger mobile push notifications or sound
- Never miss a trading opportunity
---
## How to Use
### Installation
1. Open TradingView and navigate to the Chart
2. Click "Indicator" โ Search "MACD Divergence Optimizer"
3. Click "Add to Chart"

---
## Trading Strategy
### Bullish Divergence (Entry Setup)
1. **Identify Signal**: Green triangle appears on MACD
2. **Confirm Price**: Look for price rejection of the low (bounce)
3. **Volume Check**: Buy on increase in volume at the bounce
4. **Entry**: Above the swing low level
5. **Stop Loss**: Below the most recent swing low
6. **Target**: Next swing high or resistance level
### Bearish Divergence (Entry Setup)
1. **Identify Signal**: Red triangle appears on MACD
2. **Confirm Price**: Look for price rejection of the high
3. **Volume Check**: Sell on increase in volume at rejection
4. **Entry**: Below the swing high level
5. **Stop Loss**: Above the most recent swing high
6. **Target**: Next swing low or support level
### Risk Management
- **Position Size**: Risk only 1-2% per trade

---
## Timeframe Recommendations
| Timeframe | Best For | Signal Quality |
|-----------|----------|---|
| **1H** | Scalping, day trading | Moderate (some noise) |
| **4H** | Swing trading | Excellent |
| **Daily** | Position trading | Excellent |
| **Weekly** | Long-term trends | Excellent |
---
## Tips & Best Practices
### โ
DO:
- **Use on trends**: Divergences work best when there's a clear trend
- **Combine signals**: Look for confirmation from price action, volume, or moving averages
- **Trade the bounce**: Wait for price to react to the swing, then enter
- **Adjust parameters**: Test different MACD lengths for your trading style
- **Use alerts**: Set up mobile alerts so you don't miss signals
### โ DON'T:
- **Trade every signal**: Some signals are stronger than others
- **Trade flat/choppy markets**: Divergences fail in ranging markets
- **Ignore support/resistance**: Trade divergences near key levels for best results
- **Over-leverage**: Divergences are probabilistic, not guaranteed
- **Disable volume analysis**: Always check volume when divergence fires
---
## Advanced Features
### Volume Weighting
The indicator uses **volume-weighted MACD** instead of standard MACD. This means:
- High-volume reversals get more emphasis
- Low-volume moves are smoothed out
- More accurate momentum readings
- Better at identifying true trend changes
### Array Tracking
The indicator tracks the last 5 swings in arrays:
- `swingLows ` = last 5 price lows
- `swingHighs ` = last 5 price highs
- `swingMacds ` = corresponding MACD values
This allows detection of **hidden divergences** not visible in traditional analysis.

## Common Questions
**Q: Why didn't the indicator trigger a signal when I see a divergence?**
A: The indicator may require:
- MACD histogram to cross the zero line (confirms momentum shift)
- Minimum strength threshold to be met (adjust Min Divergence Strength)
- At least 5 swings to be recorded in the lookback window
**Q: Can I use this on all timeframes?**
A: Yes, but divergences are more reliable on higher timeframes (4H+). Lower timeframes produce more signals but with more noise.
**Q: Should I trade every green/red triangle?**
A: No. Use them as a heads-up for potential reversals. Always confirm with:
- Price action (rejection of the swing)
- Volume (increasing volume at reversal)
- Key support/resistance levels
**Q: How do I set alerts?**
A:
1. Right-click the indicator โ Edit Alerts
2. Check "Bullish Divergence" and/or "Bearish Divergence"
3. Choose notification type (browser, mobile, email)
4. Set frequency to "Once per bar close"
**Q: What's the difference between regular and hidden divergence?**
A: This indicator detects **hidden divergences** (also called continuation divergences):
- **Regular**: Price makes new extreme, but oscillator doesn't
- **Hidden**: Price makes new extreme, oscillator makes new extreme in different direction
- Hidden divergences are often more reliable for continuation plays

Michael's FVG Detector
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
A clean and efficient Fair Value Gap (FVG) indicator for TradingView that helps traders identify market imbalances with precision.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Overview
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) are price inefficiencies that occur when there's a gap between the wicks of candlesticks, indicating rapid price movement with minimal trading activity. These gaps often act as support/resistance zones where price may return to "fill the gap."
This indicator automatically detects and visualizes both bullish and bearish FVGs on any timeframe, making it easy to spot potential trading opportunities.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Features
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Core Functionality
Automatic FVG Detection : Identifies Fair Value Gaps in real-time as they form
Bullish & Bearish FVGs : Detects both upward and downward price gaps
3-Candle Pattern : Uses classic FVG logic (current candle low > high from 2 bars ago for bullish, vice versa for bearish)
Gap Size Display : Shows the exact size of each FVG in ticks directly on the box
Confirmed Bars Only : Only draws FVGs on confirmed bars to prevent repainting
Customization
Color Settings : Fully customizable colors for bullish and bearish FVGs with transparency control
Text Color : Configurable color for the tick size labels
Default Styling : Comes with sensible defaults (20% transparency, dark gray labels)
Performance Optimization
Smart Cleanup : Automatically removes boxes outside the visible chart area
Efficient Rendering : Maintains optimal performance even on lower timeframes
No Repainting : Uses confirmed bars only for reliable signals
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
How It Works
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Detection Logic
Bullish FVG:
Current bar's low is higher than the high from 2 bars ago
Creates an upward gap that price left behind during bullish momentum
Bearish FVG:
Current bar's high is lower than the low from 2 bars ago
Creates a downward gap that price left behind during bearish momentum
Visual Display
Each detected FVG is displayed as:
A semi-transparent colored box spanning the gap area
The box extends from bar -2 to the current bar
Gap size in ticks shown at the bottom-left of each box
Singular/plural formatting ("1 tick" vs "X ticks")
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Performance Notes
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Cleanup runs every 50 bars to maintain optimal performance
Only creates boxes on confirmed bars (no real-time repainting)
Efficiently manages memory by removing off-screen boxes
Suitable for both manual and automated trading strategies
