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.

🔵 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.
🔵 Settings

🟣 Alert Settings
Alert SFP : Enables alerts for Swing Failure Pattern.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
🔵 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.

KillZones Hunt + Sessions [TradingFinder] Alert & Volume Ranges🟣 Introduction
🔵 Session
Financial markets are divided into various time segments, each with its own characteristics and activity levels. These segments are called sessions, and they are active at different times of the day.
The most important active sessions in financial markets are :
1. Asian Session
2. European Session
3. New York Session
The timing of these major sessions based on the UTC time zone is as follows :
1. Asian Session: 23:00 to 06:00
2. European Session: 07:00 to 16:30
3. New York Session: 13:00 to 22:00
Note
To avoid overlap between sessions and interference in kill zones, we have adjusted the session timings as follows :
• Asian Session: 23:00 to 06:00
• European Session: 07:00 to 14:25
• New York Session: 14:30 to 22:55
🔵 Kill Zones
Kill zones are parts of a session where trader activity is higher than usual. During these periods, trading volume increases and price fluctuations are more intense.
The timing of the major kill zones based on the UTC time zone is as follows :
• Asian Kill Zone: 23:00 to 03:55
• European Kill Zone: 07:00 to 09:55
• New York Morning Kill Zone: 14:30 to 16:55
• New York Evening Kill Zone: 19:30 to 20:55
This indicator focuses on tracking the kill zone and its range. For example, once a kill zone ends, the high and low formed during it remain unchanged.
If the price reaches the high or low of the kill zone while the session is still active, the corresponding line is not drawn any further. Based on this information, various strategies can be developed, and the most important ones are discussed below.
🟣 How to Use
There are three main ways to trade based on the kill zone :
• Kill Zone Hunt
• Breakout and Pullback to Kill Zone
• Trading in the Trend of the Kill Zone
🔵 Kill Zone Hunt
According to this strategy, once the kill zone ends and its high and low lines no longer change, if the price reaches one of these lines within the same session and is strongly rejected, a trade can be entered.
🔵 Breakout and Pullback to Kill Zone
According to this strategy, once the kill zone ends and its high and low lines no longer change, if the price breaks one of these lines strongly within the same session, a trade can be entered on the pullback to that level.
Trading in the Trend of the Kill Zone
We know that kill zones are areas where high-volume trading occurs and powerful trends form. Therefore, trades can be made in the direction of the trend. For example, when an upward trend dominates this area, you can enter a buy trade when the price reaches a demand order block.
🟣 Features
🔵 Alerts
You can set alerts to be notified when the price hits the high or low lines of the kill zone.
🔵 More Information
By enabling this feature, you can view information such as the time and trading volume within the kill zone. This allows you to compare the trading volume with the same period on the previous day or other kill zones.
🟣 Settings
Through the settings, you have access to the following options :
• Show or hide additional information
• Enable or disable alerts
• Show or hide sessions
• Show or hide kill zones
• Set preferred colors for displaying sessions
• Customize the time range of sessions
• Customize the time range of kill zones

We call this difference the Delta & When Delta is 5% or less Bitcoin is a Buy.
2. Bitcoin Macro Sells.
a) A sell signal is Triggered in Bitcoin at any point the Largest 4 short OI > or = to 70
3. AMPLIFIER Trade signals 'Super' Longs or Shorts -
Extreme low volatility events leads to highly impulsive & volatile subsequent moves, if either of 1 or 2 above occur, combined with extreme low volatility
a 'Super Long' or 'SUPER SELL' is generated. In the case of the short side, given Bitcoins general expansive and MACRO Bull trend since inception, we seek an additional component
that is an extreme differential/Delta reading between 4 biggest Longs & Shorts OI.
