Accumulation Manipulation Distribution [TakingProphets] – Real-Time HTF Candle Projection for ICT/SMC Traders

Accumulation Manipulation Distribution (AMD) is a premium, real-time indicator designed for traders who use ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC). It projects higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly onto your lower timeframe chart, allowing you to monitor institutional price behavior without switching timeframes.

By continuously tracking the open, high, low, and close (OHLC) of active HTF candles, AMD helps traders interpret whether the market is in a phase of accumulation, manipulation, or distribution—a key concept for understanding institutional order flow.

Core Features and How It Works
1. Live HTF Candle Visualization

Displays complete HTF candles — including body and wicks — in real time.

Provides immediate higher timeframe context for lower timeframe execution.

Supports any timeframe from 1 minute to monthly.

2. Real-Time OHLC Projections

Projects the open, high, low, and current close of the active HTF candle as it develops.

Acts as evolving reference points for support, resistance, and directional bias.

Fully customizable with adjustable colors, line styles, and labels.

3. Session Timing and Labeling

Optional time labels mark candle openings and help anticipate session closes.

Supports 12-hour and 24-hour formatting for flexibility across markets.

4. Complete Visual Customization

Configure candle width, wick transparency, border color, and projection lines.

Maintain a clean, professional overlay that aligns with your preferred charting style.

How to Use AMD
Determine HTF Bias: Identify whether the active candle is expanding in your trade direction or showing signs of rejection.

Track Price Reaction: Monitor how price interacts with projected HTF highs, lows, and midpoints—especially during ICT killzones or after liquidity events.

Anchor Lower Timeframe Entries: Combine AMD with tools like Order Blocks, Liquidity Levels, or Rejection Blocks to confirm high-probability Smart Money setups.

This approach allows traders to synchronize LTF executions with HTF market structure, enhancing clarity and confidence in trade selection.
