Fair Value Gap - FVG - HistogramThis indicator uses a histogram to represent "fair value gaps" ("FVG"). FVG is a popular pattern among modern traders.
This document describes the purpose of the script and discusses the conceptual meaning of "fair value," as well as the connotations attached to it.
█🚀 Based on the previous script - improved clarity
This indicator is a modified version of the "Three Bar Gap (Simple Price Action - with 1 line plot)" indicator, which is also available as open source and can be applied to a chart as a complementary tool along with this indicator.
Differences:
The previous version introduced a "Threshold filter" to reduce the number of lines plotted on charts. This filter introduced two additional parameters for users to consider (ATR length and multiplier). These parameters made the indicator more complicated than intended.
To address this issue of having too many lines in the former version, I proposed a spin-off on this version: It's to consider plotting the magnitude of the FVGs on a histogram instead of using lines on a price chart. In my opinion, a histogram is more suitable for decision-making because it lays out data points side-by-side as bins, which makes comparisons much clearer.
Minor FVGs are expected to have smaller bins compared to their neighboring bins, and in extreme cases, the bins will become seemingly invisible due to the auto-adjusted scale of the y-axis. Therefore, there is no need to filter out any data, and all FVGs can be included in this spin-off version.
█🚀 Candlestick patterns - revisited
This script calculates the displacement of highs and lows over three consecutive bars.
A) Down move: When the high of the recent-confirmed bar is lower than the low of the previous-previous candle.
B) Up move: When the low of the recently-confirmed bar is higher than the high of the previous-previous candle.
█🚀 Parameters
Core Functionality
The purpose of this indicator is to generate bins representing the magnitude of FVGs in the form of a histogram to facilitate the visualization of price movements.
The act of "finding FVGs" does not require any inputs, but users can still customize the colors of the bins to indicate the direction of movement.
Auxiliary functionality: “Key level finder” by searching for large FVGs
The following inputs are optional, in fact, the entire feature can be toggled on/off.
In this example, setting the lookback at 20 means the script will generate a signal if the current histogram bin is taller than all previous bins over the past 20 bars.
█🚀 Applications
Tall histogram bins = key levels .
Traders should observe key levels for entry or exit opportunities.
It is important to note that this indicator was designed for standard time-based charts.
On a separate note, FVGs will not appear in Renko charts with fixed-size bricks. This is because the bricks align with their neighboring bricks. When the bricks are fixed, any displacement between highs and lows within less than or equal to three bars will be zero.
The concept of a "gap" is used to illustrate that price follows a jump-diffusion process, and time intervals can be assigned arbitrarily on the x-axis without needing fixed intervals. This idea was briefly discussed in the previous script's write-up.
█🚀 FAQ: Does it repaint?
No. And please continue reading.
Bins are plotted with a one-bar delay. It only takes one bar for the FVG to become confirmed. Lag is beneficial because it clarifies the need for traders to wait for the bar to close and for the signals to become confirmed before entering or exiting a trade. Experienced traders know that prices tend to retrace, so there is no need to chase. An added bar of delay proves to be useful.
█🚀 Opinion: The term “fair value” can be misleading
Those who come from traditional finance may find the term "fair value gap" somewhat insulting. When encountering the phrase, it can feel like a group of aliens from "Planet Technical Analysis" have intrusively landed on your planet and assertively redefined what "fair value" is supposed to mean.
So, what does "fair value" mean in the realm of technical analysis?
In the world of corporate finance, "fair value" is a subjective estimate of what buyers and sellers are hypothetically willing to pay or accept. Buy-side and sell-side analysts use their own methodologies to determine what constitutes "fair value". These approaches may be based on income, asset, or market comparables. Regardless of the approach used, subjectivity is inherent, and results depend on fundamental data provided by the numbers on financial statements. Valuations are unrelated to candlestick patterns .
When dealing with financial statements, finance professionals who are non-market-participants, such as those working in group reporting practices for reporting issuers, or those hired as external auditors, as required by regulators, may also question what constitutes "fair value". The main concerns always revolve around the assumptions used in valuation models; these are inputs that ultimately require management's judgment, and if not critically questioned, valuations as reported in the statements could end up becoming materially bogus. Both IFRS and U.S. GAAP define "fair value" with the same intended meaning in terms of definitions. We will not delve into the details here. The main point is that "fair value" from a financial reporting perspective has nothing to do with candlesticks .
If a price is already quoted in an actively traded market, you can refer to it to obtain what is known as "mark-to-market". This involves simply referring to the bid or ask price on the reporting date, and you're done - there's no need to read candlesticks !
"Fair value" is a neutral term used by finance professionals in all domains. It is not meant to imply that something is actually "fair." Paying the "fair value" for an asset can still result in overpaying or underpaying for what the asset is worth, depending on different model assumptions. The point is, candlesticks are irrelevant to the analysis of what is considered "fair value" in the realm of traditional finance.
That being said, there is no definitive answer as to why people refer to this pattern as a "fair value gap". It's like one of those oddball interview questions asking you to explain why tennis balls are fuzzy. Whatever answer you give, it's important to note that the subject itself is trivial.
Emphasis of matter on why "fair value" can be misleading
The previous paragraphs were not intended to attack ideas from the realm of technical analysis, nor to assert the true meaning, or lack of meaning, of the term "fair value". Words are constantly evolving. If the term "fair value gap" becomes more widely used to describe the displacement of highs and lows over three bars, then let's call it a "fair value gap".
To be clear, I argue that the term "fair value gap" should not be given a positive connotation. Traders should interpret the word "fair" neutrally. Although these signals occur frequently, if you trade every time there is a signal, you will overtrade and incur astronomical transaction costs over the long run, which can lead to losses.
█🚀 Conclusion:
In the end, what matters is how you apply FVG to trading. As mentioned in the "Applications" section above, traders should look for large FVGs - indicated by tall histogram bins - to identify key levels.

DojiCandle body size RSI-SMMA filter MTF
Hi. I was inspired by a public script written by @ahmedirshad419, .
I thank him for his idea and hard work.
His script is the combination of RSI and Engulfing Pattern.
//------------------------------------------------------------
I decided to tweak it a bit with Open IA.
I have changed:
1) candle pattern to DojiCandle Pattern;
2) I added the ability for the user to change the size of the candlestick body;
3) Added SMMA 200;
4) Changed the colour of SMMA 200 depending on price direction;
5) Added a change in the colour of candlesticks, depending on the colour of the SMMA 200;
6) Added buy and sell signals with indicator name, ticker and close price;
7) Added ability to use indicator on multi time frame.
How it works
1. when RSI > 70 > SMMA 200 and form the bullish DojiCandle Pattern. It gives sell signal
2. when RSI < 30 < SMMA 200 and form the bearish DojiCandle Pattern. It gives buy signal
settings:
basic setting for RSI, SMMA 200 has been enabled in the script to set the levels accordingly to your trades
Enjoy
Pin Candle DetectionPin candles are a variation of hammer candles that are useful in technical analysis . In particular, when combined with volume profile studies, they can be a powerful set up for long entries or other decision making.
For example, when looking at volume profiles, a long entry would be a fair value area (i.e. 40%) below the close of a pin candle. When combined with a support level , the set up is stronger.
While most scripts look for hammer candles, pin candles are somewhat different in that the length of the wick is significant.
This script and its parameters was built for ES futures 15 min chart in mind.
This script is unique in that it allows for the below parameters to be adjusted to suit other instruments and timeframes:
1. Fib level: Candle must close within a certain retracement level). My preference is 0.55. Some traders like 0.5, while others prefer 0.33
2. Wick length: Pin candles differ from pure hammers in that the length of the wick must be significant. My preference is 7 points on ES (as in $ and not ticks)
Add this script to your alerts to no longer miss these set ups.
Strongest Supports And ResistancesDraws the best support and resistance lines. How it works:
1) Tries every possible line through lows, highs, opens, closes
2) Finds the total hit counts given the confidence interval as input to the candlesticks
3) Calculates the strength of every line according to hit count, total volumes on hits, and timestamps
4) Eliminates similar lines, confidence interval is set as input
5) Selects the strongest 20(changable as an input) lines and draws them on the graph.
Makes your work way easier!!!
Feel free to adjust the parameters for your own style!
Cheers!!
Detect BOS in Five Candles with MTF - Alert [MsF]Japanese below / 日本語説明は英文の後にあります。
-------------------------
*This indicator is based on azmathshah's "Last Three Candles each of Two HTF".
It's a very cool indicator. thank you.
You can detect trend reversal with candlesticks.
It's MTF compatible and can display up to 2 sets of 5 candles of any time frame on the right side of the chart.
By displaying the candles of the upper time frame bars, you can check the trend change and measure the entry timing with the lower time frame bars.
There are two types of alerts.
"Liquidity Sweep": This is an alert when the upper beard (high) of ③ is touched with the next foot.
"Candle Close": An alert when the upper whisker (high) of ③ is exceeded by the closing price of the next bar (generally a strong signal)
-------------------------
ローソク足でトレンド転換を検知するインジケーターです。
MTF対応となっておりチャートの右側に任意タイムフレームのローソク5本を最大2セット表示できます。
上位足のローソクを表示することにより、トレンド転換確認しながら、下位足でエントリータイミングを計ることができます。
アラートは2種類あります。
"Liquidity Sweep":③の上ヒゲ(high)を次の足でタッチした場合のアラートです
"Candle Close":③の上ヒゲ(high)を次の足の終値で上回った場合のアラートです(一般的には強力なシグナルとなります)
ChitukiProduced according to Bitcoin and Ethereum 1D, 1W, and 1M candle charts.
When you use it for general stock charts or altcoins, make sure to backtest it thoroughly before using it.
*To facilitate backtesting, this have a vertical line that allows you to easily specify the start time.😍
This indicator is simply based on the Engulfing patterns.
I focused on finding inflection points and wrote them based on 1D chart.
▲▼ Small and fat arrows: Displays simple engulfing patterns.
(Displays only those whose lengths differ by at least 1.2 times from each other)
↑↓ Slim and long arrows: Displays actual trading. (Backtesting reflects this.)
Compare the 7 lowest points to find the bullish Engulfing .
Compare the 14 highest points to find the Bearish Engulfing .
Switch the long and short positions to each other.
Long/short position entry at the market price, mid-price, and closing price of Engulfing Candles.
The charts from 2014 to January 2023 were back-tested and the error ranges were calculated and adjusted in detail.
In conclusion, you can think of it as an Engulfing Pattern Finder tailored to the Bitcoin chart.
This is how I did trading before I made this indicator, and I programmed the trading method as an indicator and I think it's pretty reliable but...
Please don't blindly trust ONLY the indicator(s).
///Properties setting Recommend///

Oder size : 18% of equity
Pyramiding : 21 (in plenty / Bcuz one deal is divided into three times.)

Range DetectionThis is a simple indicator to find the sideways market or ranging market.
It is mainly focused on BTCUSD as BTCUSD doesn’t make big moves each and every candle. It makes big breakouts with one candle and then goes sideways for a longer period of time.
So, this indicator identifies those big candles and plots high and lows of those big candles using lines. New range is created only when new candles close above or below previous major candles high or low.
The Candle Hunter Candlestick Pattern - by Karoshi TradingThe Candle Hunter Indicator - by Karoshi Trading
The Candle Hunter Indicator is based on specific Candlesticks and Patterns.
Activating this indicator will mark all specific Bullish & Bearish Candles on the Chart.
Depending on your settings, not all candles will be displayed on the chart.
The goal of this indicator is, to highlight all the important trending candles and ignore all ranging candles.
This can be helpful for rejecting/bouncing zones or S&R Levels. Or even if you like to trade reversals, you do not want to trade it on low volume ranging candles.
This indicator should only be used as a supplementary tool while trading, not as a stand alone.
Which Candles & Pattern will be marked on the chart?
1# Pinbar / Hammer (multiple Variations)
2# Marubozu Candles (multiple Variations)
3# Engulfing Candles (Multiple Variations)
How does this indicator works?
First of all, the indicator has to calculate 3 different parameters, before marking one of the given candle. To do so, we will need the average volume, average candle size and the specific candles.
1st Parameter: Defining the needed Candles
First of all, the indicator will calculate, based on the opening & closing price and also the wick (range of each candle). If one of the calculation is a match, for the mentioned candles above, we come to step 2.
2nd Parameter: Average Candle Size
The next one is the size of each candle, compared to the average candle on the chart.
You can customize the settings, but in this example, we want the specific candle be at least 1.5 times the size of the average last 14 candles.
3rd Parameter: Average Volume
The indicator will now calculate the average volume of the last selected candles period (default settings = 14) and compare it to the current candle. In this example, the current candle should be at least 1.5 times the average volume.
The indicator provides two possibilities to calculate the average volume:
1# Volume MA = Volume Moving Average
2# Volume SA = Volume Simple Average
Result: Colorizing the given Candle
After all parameters were met, the indicator will colorize and mark with a label + name all the candles on the chart.
Special Settings:
1st The Engulfing Candles, have 3 different options:
1# Classic = Only the body of the previous candle has to be engulfed by the current candle
2# Reinforced = The full candle + wick of the previous candle has to be engulfed
3# Multiple Candles = Minimum 3 previous candles has to be engulfed to be marked on the chart
The numbers of candles are changeable and you can have all 3 options simultaneously active.
That means, that the code will check all 3 options to see if there is a match.
2nd Marubozu Candle
You can set the ratio between body compared to wick in the settings. Depends if you want full marubozu candles or also the variations of it.
3rd Hammer Wick
You can decide how much bigger the wick should be, compared to the body of the candle. The default settings are set on 1.5 times.
You can also set the position of the body. As example if the settings are set on 30%, the body of the hammer should be on the upper half of a bullish hammer or the lower 30% of the candle if bearish.
Three Bar Gap (Simple Price Action - with 1 line plot)This script is tailored towards experienced traders who prefer to view raw price charts during live execution. It searches for a three-bar pattern of what is colloquially called "fair value gap", or "imbalance" and uses a single line to plot the results. The goal is to display price in a way that is as simple as possible so that chart readers who don't prefer to add indicators on their screen will still find this indicator as an acceptable option to consider for.
From a code perspective, this script explores a new PineScript feature called UDT (user-defined types). This is an incredible update because it brings developers one step close to having the ability to create abstract data types.
█ What is price action?
Experienced traders will tell you that the chart that they use for live execution is raw, clean, and uses no indicators. They say they execute on price action, so what exactly is price action?
There is no formal definition to it, but one can agree that it implies the process of analyzing price without considering the fundamentals, without needing to know what the news was about, and without needing to know any of the Greeks (except for the desire to “seek alpha” Ha.haa...). This is not to say that price action traders are executing in their own vacuums without the need to know what is happening around the world. Surely fundamentals and financial models can be used beforehand for developing a bias for what is being traded, but it’s price-first at the moment of execution. That said, Factor (A) is Price.
Factor (B) is time-perception, it’s how the trader reads the tape. How the trader perceives price to change with respect to time is valuable information. Interpretation of "time" will be elaborated in the next section that talks about candlestick patterns detected by this script.
Putting this together, price action means the analysis of price movement by only considering (A) price, and (B) time, to predict which direction the market will move. A speculative trader is timing the market with the expectation to make a quick in-and-out profit; she/she is using price action. On the other hand, a long term investor holding a diversified portfolio with a strategy based on modern portfolio theory combined with fundamental analysis (at this point candlesticks are irrelevant) but has one additional criteria of, say, can only go Long on a stock when it has closed Green on Daily; he/she is also considered to be executing on price action.
█ Candlestick patterns
This script calculates the displacement of highs and lows over three consecutive bars.
A) Down move = When High of the recent confirmed bar is lower than the Low of the previous-previous candle
B) Up move = When Low of the recent confirmed bar is higher than the High of the previous-previous candle
(Note that its the confirmed bar that is being talked about, so it does not repaint)
An ATR filter will be applied to reduce the number of lines generated as many times they might just be associated with minor price changes.
Interpretations:
When price moves quickly across three bars, it can be thought that it has gapped. Although the candle in the middle appears to be solid, it’s not from a conceptual perspective. This is because time itself is arbitrary; timeframes don’t necessarily have to be fixed intervals. Take stocks with regular trading hours for example, if price makes a breakaway gap and you bundle the after-hours and pre-market sessions together as one candle, never minding that intervals should be fixed, then you will see the exact three-bar-gap patterns. Similar happens during intraday sessions on lower timeframes, if you zoom-in closer, you’ll see that ticks within the middle candle are sparsely dispersed. This is why it's called a gap.
█ Parameters with fixed inputs & assumptions used:
ATR is used for filtering out minor movements that will likely be deemed as irrelevant by trader for the purpose of live execution. The following inputs are required:
A) ATR lookback period
B) Multiplier
The product of ATR(len=A) and B produces a threshold for minimum distance that price must gap by. Initially, it was proposed to be only based on one ATR, but often an ATR is too wide and using it will filter out too many lines. Because of this observation, a multiplier (Parameter B) has been introduced to allow users to apply fractional ATR as a threshold.
█ Applications:
For trend followers: Follow the direction of the gap. Entering above recent high/low points above/below the first impulse with a stop-limit order is a viable tactic.
For contrarians fading a trend: The mid-point is a good point of reference for predicting potential areas of support/resistance.
New Bearish Downtrend Script - Perfect for Short SellingIts been a while since i last uploaded a script, what i have for you today is a script which works very efficiently for downtrends and spotting reversals. This is a script i use on a weekly basis when looking to short sell.
This script includes :
Updated** Rally Candles for HTF and LTF ( End of Impulsive move signal) - The psychology of the candle when used with market information can be viewed as a end or near to the end of a big impulsive leg - when this candle occurs in BEARISH CONDITIONS, we can assume price is likely to move away short term.
Major and Minor Support Levels HTF (Areas of interest)
The Psychology on these levels is price will do something at these key levels - it takes in the last quarter price action of High Open Low Close to generate the price levels and when price comes into these areas we are likely to see a bounce or rejection from this area.
Bearish Breakout Volume Candle - This candle will paint a Purple colour bar when volume breaks above the 7day average - this shows strong momentum in the market and will usually be seen when price is in a downtrend with strong momentum.. However when this does occur we can expect a short term bounce or base so don't trade the volume bar alone.
Indecision Candles - Psychology of this candle is to show exhaustion in the trend and ideally what to see this candle appear with Rally Candles at key areas for stronger set up. When the trend is moving up, the bearish doji can appear - i tend to look at this situation as a pause in the trend.
200 EMA
Everything in this script has alert conditions to provide an edge in the markets
This is an example of how the script will look on the HTF I'm using the Daily Timeframe for reference on TSLA
This is an example of how the script looks like on the LTF, price hit the Major Resistance twice and failed to hit the 3rd time and on each leg of the impulse, the chart portrayed the LTF Rally Candles
Heres an example on how to use both Major Resistance ( Area of Interest) Rally Candle and Volume Breakout as a trade set up idea - This setup idea was on Crude Oil last week and into this week.
When added to confluences such as Supply Zones, Mitigation Levels, Quasimodo patterns etc... this will enhance the script.
I will answer any questions if i haven't made the script clear or take any requests to improve the script.
Also will be uploading the Bullish Uptrend Script soon.

Simple STRAT Tool by nnamWhat this Indicator Does
This indicator is a very simple tool created specifically for experienced Straters. It was created for those Straters who fully understand the 1-2-3 Strat Scenarios, are in need of an easy to use tool, and do not want or need a lot of messy markings on their chart.
The indicator simply allows the user to color code the Strat 1, 2 ,3 (Inside /Outside /Up / Down) Bars as desired and by default extends lines to the right of the chart from the Highs and Lows of the previous 2 Bars giving the user a simple reference for Strat scenario structure breaks.
As shown above, the bars are color coded, but the original bar color is maintained via the border and wick.
If a bar is an Outside Bar or an Inside Bar, it is still easy to identify whether or not the bar was a Bullish or Bearish 1 or 3.
The same goes for 2UP and 2Down Bars - It is easy to identify Bullish or Bearish UP or DOWN Bars.
Optionally, as show in the screenshot below, the user can extend the lines in both directions to get an "at a glance" better understanding of where price is currently vs previous support and resistance areas.
For Straters that prefer to trade only INSIDE BAR BREAKOUTS there is an optional input setting labeled "Trade Inside Bars ONLY".
This setting turns OFF the lines that extend from the 2nd previous bar back and only displays and extend lines from the previous bar IF and ONLY IF the current bar is an INSIDE (one) bar. .
The User Input settings allow for the following customizations:
1. Custom Outside Bar Color
2. Custom Inside Bar Color
3. Custom 2 Up Bar Color
4. Custom 2 Down Bar Color
5. Turn ON or OFF color coded bars
6. Trade only INSIDE Bar Breakouts
7. Extend Lines Both Directions
8. Hide all Lines
The customizable settings above allow the user to hide all lines and turn OFF color coding without having to fully remove the indicator from the chart. This is convenient when the user has another indicator that uses color coded bars or the lines conflict with another indicator and they need to be temporarily disabled.
If you have any questions regarding this indicator please let me know. If you have any suggestions for minor tweaks to the indicator do not hesitate to ask for them.
I hope you enjoy this indicator and get some usefulness from it... HAPPY TRADING!!

Candlestick - Kicker PatternNot many candlestick patterns hurt traders on the other side of the trade more than this signal, when it happens, think of it as kicking in the teeth, the pain is real.
An upwards signal is painted when you have a two-bar formation, the one on the left is a bearish one whereas the successive one is bullish, when you have fat bodies in both candles, meaning the open is close to the high and the close is close to the low for the first candle, while the open is close to the low and the close is close to the high for the adjacent candle, the pain is ever more excruciating, the other important condition is the open of the first candle must be lower than the open of the latter one.
The downwards signal is vice versa of the upwards signal.

SFC Smart Money Manipulation - MTF ZonesThis indicator shows the most important manipulated zones - true support and resistance.
The indicator can show the zones from different time frames - 1H, 4H, D and the current TF.
Order Block definition - small candle or few consecutive candles, where banks place buy and sell orders in order to manipulate the price. After price is manipulated and moved in one direction, the banks are in draw down, that is why they manipulate the price one more time before the true move, retesting these candles (closing losing positions).
FU candles
FU candles are most manipulated candles and create very strong reaction zones. These are the true zones, where the banks place their orders.
Why they are so strong? The answer is very simple - these candles clear the liquidity from the previous ones. After the liquidity is cleared ( all stop losses/pending orders are triggered), price reveal the true direction and move very fast.
FU candles are type of Order Blocks - the most powerful one.
Because the most volume is in the body of the order block. The indicator shows not only the FU candle, but the body of the order block.
There are two types of FU candles :
(only full FU candles are displayed as zones, because they are much significant)
1) Full fu, where the current candle completely engulf the previous one, after taking the liquidity. (displayed as F)
2) Current candle only take liquidity from the previous one, but failed to engulf it. (displayed as A)
9 day simple moving average is also displayed. When the price form Fu candle above/under the MA, there is a better chance for reversal.
When FU candles are retested the transparency will change, showing that the zones may have less impact.
Order Blocks
Only the current order blocks are displayed. Price react very often from the 50% level, that is why this level is also displayed.
Rejections
Rejections are doji candles or candles with big wicks. These rejections very often lead to reversals or deep pullbacks. But before the true move, price test the rejection levels. The retest is not always, but very often of the 50% of the wick.
The rejections are very important price zone.
The indicator can show the zones from different time frames - 1H, 4H, D and the current TF. When wicks are retested the transparency and colour will change, showing that the wicks may have less impact or no more impact.
Settings
-The colour and transparency of the zones can be changed.
- Multi time frames zones could be disabled.
- Doji settings
- Length of the moving average
How to use
If price reach one of the displayed zones. The trader should be prepared for price reaction. This reaction could lead to reversal, pull back or trading range.
The trader should have bias from the higher time frames and watch for signs of manipulations on smaller time frames.
Candlestick OB FinderIntroduction
Hello, this here is a non-repainting candlestick indicator which is able to detect OB looking candlestick formations.
Usage
It can be used to confirm entries, but be aware that it produces a lot of false signals.
Somehow the swings tend to reverse at these points.
I recommend the 10–15 minutes timeframe.
I hope you enjoy this small indicator. :)
