ICT KEY LEVELS (L3J)

📊 Overview

The ICT KEY LEVELS (L3J) indicator is a tool designed to automatically identify and display key levels based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts.

This indicator combines session-based levels with multi-timeframe highs/lows analysis to provide traders with critical price zones for decision-making.

Developed by L3J - This indicator can be used in conjunction with other indicators I have developed for enhanced market analysis.
