Percentage Based ZigZag█ OVERVIEW
The Percentage-Based ZigZag indicator is a custom technical analysis tool designed to highlight significant price reversals while filtering out market noise. Unlike many standard zigzag tools that rely solely on fixed price moves or generic trend-following methods, this indicator uses a configurable percentage threshold to dynamically determine meaningful pivot points. This approach not only adapts to different market conditions but also helps traders distinguish between minor fluctuations and truly significant trend shifts—whether scalping on shorter timeframes or analyzing longer-term trends.
█ KEY FEATURES & ORIGINALITY
Dynamic Pivot Detection
The indicator identifies pivot points by measuring the percentage change from the previous extreme (high or low). Only when this change exceeds a user-defined threshold is a new pivot recognized. This method ensures that only substantial moves are considered, making the indicator robust in volatile or noisy markets.
Enhanced ZigZag Visualization
By connecting significant highs and lows with a continuous line, the indicator creates a clear visual map of price swings. Each pivot point is labelled with the corresponding price and the percentage change from the previous pivot, providing immediate quantitative insight into the magnitude of the move.
Trend Reversal Projections
In addition to marking completed reversals, the script computes and displays potential future reversal points based on the current trend’s momentum. This forecasting element gives traders an advanced look at possible turning points, which can be particularly useful for short-term scalping strategies.
Customizable Visual Settings
Users can tailor the appearance by:
• Setting the percentage threshold to control sensitivity.
• Customizing colors for bullish (e.g., green) and bearish (e.g., red) reversals.
• Enabling optional background color changes that visually indicate the prevailing trend.
█ UNDERLYING METHODOLOGY & CALCULATIONS
Percentage-Based Filtering
The script continuously monitors price action and calculates the relative percentage change from the last identified pivot. A new pivot is confirmed only when the price moves a preset percentage away from this pivot, ensuring that minor fluctuations do not trigger false signals.
Pivot Point Logic
The indicator tracks the highest high and the lowest low since the last pivot. When the price reverses by the required percentage from these extremes, the algorithm:
1 — Labels the point as a significant high or low.
2 — Draws a connecting line from the previous pivot to the current one.
3 — Resets the extreme-tracking for detecting the next move.
Real-Time Reversal Estimation
Building on traditional zigzag methods, the script incorporates a projection calculation. By analyzing the current trend’s strength and recent percentage moves, it estimates where a future reversal might occur, offering traders actionable foresight.
█ HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
1 — Apply the Indicator

SuperTrend + Relative Volume (Kernel Optimized)Introducing our new KDE Optimized Supertrend + Relative Volume Indicator!
This innovative indicator combines the power of the Supertrend indicator along with Relative Volume. It utilizes the Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) to estimate the probability of a candlestick marking a significant trend break or reversal.
❓How to Interpret the KDE %:
The KDE % is a crucial metric that reflects the likelihood that the current candlestick represents a true break in the SuperTrend line, supported by an increase in relative volume. It estimates the probability of a trend shift or continuation based on historical SuperTrend breaks and volume patterns:
Low KDE %: A lower probability that the current break is significant. Price action is less likely to reverse, and the trend may continue.
Moderate KDE - High KDE %: An increased possibility that a trend reversal or consolidation could occur. Traders should start watching for confirmation signals.
📌How Does It Work?
The SuperTrend indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to determine the direction of the trend and identifies when the price crosses the SuperTrend line, signaling a potential trend reversal. Here's how the KDE Optimized SuperTrend Indicator works:
SuperTrend Calculation: The SuperTrend indicator is calculated, and when the price breaks above (bullish) or below (bearish) the SuperTrend line, it is logged as a significant event.
Relative Volume: For each break in the SuperTrend line, we calculate the relative volume (current volume vs. the average volume over a defined period). High relative volume can suggest stronger confirmation of the trend break.
KDE Array Calculation: KDE is applied to the break points and relative volume data:
Define the KDE options: Bandwidth, Number of Steps, and Array Range (Array Max - Array Min).
Create a density range array using the defined number of steps, corresponding to potential break points.
Apply a Gaussian kernel function to the break points and volume data to estimate the likelihood of the trend break being significant.
KDE Value and Signal Generation: The KDE array is updated as each break occurs. The KDE % is calculated for the breakout candlestick, representing the likelihood of the trend break being significant. If the KDE value exceeds the defined activation threshold, a darker bullish or bearish arrow is plotted after bar confirmation. If the KDE value falls below the threshold, a more transparent arrow is drawn, indicating a possible but lower probability break.
⚙️Settings:
SuperTrend Settings:
ATR Length: The period over which the Average True Range (ATR) is calculated.
Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the ATR to determine the SuperTrend threshold.
KDE Settings:
Bandwidth: Determines the smoothness of the KDE function and the width of the influence of each break point.
Number of Bins (Steps): Defines the precision of the KDE algorithm, with higher values offering more detailed calculations.
KDE Threshold %: The level at which relative volume is considered significant for confirming a break.
Relative Volume Length: The number of historic candles used in calculating KDE %
Gradient Trend Filter [ChartPrime]The Gradient Trend Filter is a dynamic trend analysis tool that combines a noise-filtered trend detection system with a color-gradient cloud. It provides traders with a visual representation of trend strength, momentum shifts, and potential reversals.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Trend Noise Filtering
Uses an advanced smoothing function to filter market noise and produce a more reliable trend representation.
// Noise filter function
noise_filter(src, length) =>
alpha = 2 / (length + 1)
nf_1 = 0.0
nf_2 = 0.0
nf_3 = 0.0
nf_1 := (alpha * src) + ((1 - alpha) * nz(nf_1 ))
nf_2 := (alpha * nf_1) + ((1 - alpha) * nz(nf_2 ))
nf_3 := (alpha * nf_2) + ((1 - alpha) * nz(nf_3 ))
nf_3 // Final output with three-stage smoothing
Color-Based Trend Visualization
The mid-line changes color based on trend direction—green for uptrends and red for downtrends—making it easy to identify trends at a glance.
Orange diamond markers appear when a trend shift is confirmed, providing actionable signals for traders.
Gradient Color Trend Cloud
A cloud around the base trend line that dynamically changes color, often signaling trend shifts ahead of the main trend line.
When in a downtrend, if the cloud starts turning green, it suggests weakening bearish momentum or an upcoming bullish reversal. Conversely, when in an uptrend, a red cloud indicates potential trend weakening or a bearish reversal.
Multi-Layered Trend Bands
The cloud consists of multiple bands, offering a range of support and resistance zones that traders can use for confluence in decision-making.
⯁ HOW TO USE
Identify Trend Strength & Reversals
Use the mid-line and cloud color changes to assess the strength of a trend and spot early signs of reversals.
Monitor Momentum Shifts
Watch for gradient cloud color shifts before the trend line changes color, as this can indicate early weakening or strengthening of momentum.
Act on Trend Shift Markers
Use the orange diamonds as confirmation of trend shifts and potential trade entry or exit points.
Utilize Cloud Bands as Support/Resistance
The outer bands of the cloud act as dynamic support and resistance, helping traders refine their stop-loss and take-profit placements.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Gradient Trend Filter is an advanced trend detection tool designed for traders looking to anticipate trend shifts with greater precision. By integrating a noise-filtered trend line with a gradient-based trend cloud, this indicator enhances traders' ability to navigate market trends effectively.
Volatility Price FlowCapitalize on market volatility with our new volatility price flow indicator. We have designed this indicator to process historical price movements and indicate when price may have reached exhaustion in the context of current volatility.
This is achieved by taking the price deviation from a user defined moving average, and applying a weighting to the deviations from the candle body and candle wick on both buy side and sell side, over a user defined period. The period of the base moving average, type of moving average and the period of the historical price deviations can all be modified. This creates a typical 'band' style indicator, though with a unique characteristic that the buy and sell side vary independently as well as the band expansion being based on weighted variables tied to the actual price changes, rather than just a standard deviation the moves uniformly.
Additionally, these bands can be merged with an anchored vwap - we do this so that the deviations of price from the moving average can include a more volume based approach to identifying potential pivots.
The end result is an indicator that reflects the current market price movements, identifies and capitalizes on impulsive or beginning moves to indicate potential tops / bottoms / reversals.
The signals are simple - anytime price closes within a band, having been outside the band, a signal is displayed. As a basic guide to setting the indicator up for the first time, we suggest reducing all of the multipliers to a value less than 1. Then gradually increase each one, until the signals reduce in quantity and improve in quality, starting with the price deviation multiplier, then the volatility multiplier and finally the expansion multiplier.
Last of all, alerts can be created based on the current chart timeframe and indicator settings, simply by adding an alert that uses the built in buy or sell signal.
Note: We cannot guarantee the accuracy of the signals provided, since the user creates the signals by modifying the settings, and as such we can take no responsibility for any trading losses incurred using the indicator and highly encourage all users to manage their risk and only risk what you can afford to lose.
Trending Market Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The Trending Market Toolkit focuses exclusively on trending market structures and high-confluence, high-risk-to-reward entry models. It is designed to complement discretionary trading by offering different entry strategies based on market structure.
🔶 USAGE
In the chart above we can see how the tool detects several reversals, draws the broken trendlines, the reversal areas from which the tool starts looking for a trigger, and when it finally happens, a potential trade with risk and reward areas and the risk/reward ratio.
🔹 Detection Mode
Traders can choose between three different modes: trend only, reversal only, or both.
If both are active, reversals have priority over trends, so the tool will not detect a trend if a reversal is active.
In the chart above we can see all three modes.
🔹 Detection on Higher Timeframes
Traders can choose to identify structures on the chart timeframe or on a higher timeframe.
In the chart above, we have the SP500 futures on the 5m timeframe with different settings: chart timeframe, 30m, and 1H.
🔹 Risk And Targets
Depending on whether the high-risk/reward parameter is enabled, traders can choose between three different targets and two different stops.
The chart above shows how different choices affect the risk/reward ratio for the same potential trade on the Gold Futures 2m chart.
🔶 SETTINGS
Show: Traders can choose between Trends, Reversals or Both.
🔹 Structures
Swing Length: Number of candles to confirm a swing high or swing low. A higher number detects larger swings.
Custom Timeframe: Traders can make use of the current chart timeframe, or choose a custom timeframe.
Reversal Area Threshold: A higher number increases the reversal area.
🔹 Trades
Trade Trigger Length: Number of candles to confirm an internal high or internal low. A lower number detects smaller swings. It must be the same size or smaller than the swing length.
Target: Traders can choose between the default target (0) or two extended targets (0.27 or 0.618).
Risk to Reward Threshold: Set the minimum risk-to-reward ratio to detect trades. Use the 0 value to detect all trades.
High Risk to Reward: Enable/Disable the high risk to reward mode.
Chaikin Money Flow with Moving AverageThis indicator combines the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) with a moving average, helping traders analyze buying/selling pressure and whether it's increasing or decreasing.
What It Does:
Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) developed by Marc Chaikin is a volume-weighted average of accumulation and distribution over a specified period.
A moving average is applied to CMF to reduce noise and smooth trends, making it easier to identify sustained market sentiment shifts.
How to Use It?
CMF helps confirm trend strength and potential reversals. We reduces false signals from CMF by smoothing fluctuations and making it easier to spot trends.
A CMF value above zero is a sign of strength, and a value below zero is a sign of weakness.
A rising price with a falling CMF (below moving average) is a bearish divergence and a possible reversal of the uptrend.
Similarly, a falling price with a rising CMF (above moving average) is a bullish divergence and again signals a possible reversal of the downtrend.
Configurable Parameters:
CMF Length: Adjusts how many periods are used for CMF calculation.
MA Type: Choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or T3 for smoothing.
MA Length: Controls how much smoothing is applied.
This tool is great for traders looking to improve volume-based trend analysis while filtering out short-term noise.
[SHORT ONLY] 10 Bar Low Pullback█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "10 Bar Low Pullback" strategy is a contrarian short trading system designed to capture pullbacks after a new 10‐bar low is made. it identifies a potential short opportunity when the current bar’s low breaks below the lowest low of the previous 10 bars, provided that the bar exhibits strong internal momentum as measured by its IBS value. An optional trend filter further refines entries by requiring that the close is below a 200-period EMA.
█ WHAT IS INTERNAL BAR STRENGTH (IBS)?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS) measures where the closing price falls within the high-low range of a bar. It is calculated as:
ibs = (close - low) / (high - low)
- Low IBS (≤ 0.2): Indicates the close is near the bar's low, suggesting oversold conditions.
- High IBS (≥ 0.8): Indicates the close is near the bar's high, suggesting overbought conditions.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The current bar’s low is below the lowest low of the past X bars (default: 10).

It utilizes a dynamic, ATR-based trigger to identify when prices have potentially peaked, setting the stage for a mean reversion short entry.
The optional EMA filter helps align trades with broader market trends, potentially reducing false signals.
Backtesting is recommended to fine-tune the ATR multiplier, smoothing period, and EMA settings to match the volatility and behavior of specific markets.
[SHORT ONLY] Consecutive Bars Above MA Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Bars Above MA Strategy" is a contrarian trading system aimed at exploiting overextended bullish moves in stocks and ETFs. It monitors the number of consecutive bars that close above a chosen short-term moving average (which can be either a Simple Moving Average or an Exponential Moving Average). Once the count reaches a preset threshold and the current bar’s close exceeds the previous bar’s high within a designated trading window, a short entry is initiated. An optional EMA filter further refines entries by requiring that the current close is below the 200-period EMA, helping to ensure that trades are taken in a bearish environment.
█ HOW ARE THE CONSECUTIVE BULLISH COUNTS CALCULATED?
The strategy utilizes a counter variable, `bullCount`, to track consecutive bullish bars based on their relation to the short-term moving average. Here’s how the count is determined:
Initialize the Counter
The counter is initialized at the start:
var int bullCount = na
Bullish Bar Detection
For each bar, if the close is above the selected moving average (either SMA or EMA, based on user input), the counter is incremented:
bullCount := close > signalMa ? (na(bullCount) ? 1 : bullCount + 1) : 0
Reset on Non-Bullish Condition
If the close does not exceed the moving average, the counter resets to zero, indicating a break in the consecutive bullish streak.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A short signal is generated when:
The number of consecutive bullish bars (i.e., bars closing above the short-term MA) meets or exceeds the defined threshold (default: 3).
The current bar’s close is higher than the previous bar’s high.
The signal occurs within the specified trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
Additionally, if the EMA filter is enabled, the entry is only executed when the current close is below the 200-period EMA.
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit signal is triggered when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low, prompting the strategy to close the short position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Threshold: The number of consecutive bullish bars required to trigger a short entry (default is 3).
Trading Window: The Start Time and End Time inputs define when the strategy is active.
Moving Average Settings: Choose between SMA and EMA, and set the MA length (default is 5), which is used to assess each bar’s bullish condition.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, this filter requires that the current close is below the 200-period EMA, supporting entries in a downtrend.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for stocks and ETFs and can be applied across various timeframes.
It seeks to capture mean reversion by shorting after a series of bullish bars suggests an overextended move.
The approach employs a contrarian short entry by waiting for a breakout (close > previous high) following consecutive bullish bars.
The adjustable moving average settings and optional EMA filter allow for further optimization based on market conditions.
Comprehensive backtesting is recommended to fine-tune the threshold, moving average parameters, and filter settings for optimal performance.
[SHORT ONLY] Consecutive Close>High[1] Mean Reversion Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Close > High " Mean Reversion Strategy is a contrarian daily trading system for stocks and ETFs. It identifies potential shorting opportunities by counting consecutive days where the closing price exceeds the previous day's high. When this consecutive day count reaches a predetermined threshold, and if the close is below a 200-period EMA (if enabled), a short entry is triggered, anticipating a corrective pullback.
█ HOW ARE THE CONSECUTIVE BULLISH COUNTS CALCULATED?
The strategy uses a counter variable called `bullCount` to track how many consecutive bars meet a bullish condition. Here’s a breakdown of the process:
Initialize the Counter
var int bullCount = 0
Bullish Bar Detection
Every time the close exceeds the previous bar's high, increment the counter:
if close > high
bullCount += 1
Reset on Bearish Bar
When there is a clear bearish reversal, the counter is reset to zero:
if close < low
bullCount := 0
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The count of consecutive bullish closes (where close > high ) reaches or exceeds the defined threshold (default: 3).

█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for Stocks and ETFs markets and performs best when prices frequently revert to the mean.
The strategy can be optimized further using additional conditions such as using volume or volatility filters.
It is sensitive to extreme IBS values, which help identify potential reversals.
Backtesting results should be analyzed to optimize the Upper/Lower Thresholds for specific instruments and market conditions.
Son Model ICT [TradingFinder] HTF DOL H1 + Sweep M15 + FVG M1🔵 Introduction
The ICT Son Model setup is a precise trading strategy based on market structure and liquidity, implemented across multiple timeframes. This setup first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe to validate the trend. After confirmation, the price forms a new swing in the 5-minute timeframe, absorbing liquidity.
Once this level is broken, traders typically drop to the 30-second (30s) timeframe and enter trades based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). However, since access to the 30-second timeframe is not available to most traders, we take the entry signal directly from the 5-minute timeframe, using the same liquidity zones and confirmed breakouts to execute trades. This approach simplifies execution and makes the strategy accessible to all traders.
This model operates in two setups :
Bullish ICT Son Model and Bearish ICT Son Model. In the bullish setup, liquidity is first accumulated at the lows of the 1-hour timeframe, and after confirming a market structure shift, a long position is initiated. Conversely, in the bearish setup, liquidity is first drawn from higher levels, and upon confirmation of a bearish trend, a short position is executed.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The ICT Son Model setup is designed around liquidity analysis and market structure shifts and can be applied in both bullish and bearish market conditions. The strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and then confirms a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 5-minute (5M) timeframe.
After this shift, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity. When this level is broken in the 5-minute timeframe, the trader enters based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG). While the ideal entry is in the 30-second (30s) timeframe, due to accessibility constraints, we take entry signals directly from the 5-minute timeframe.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In the Bullish ICT Son Model, the 1-hour timeframe first identifies liquidity at the market lows, where price sweeps this level to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bullish shift.
After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a higher level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a long position, placing the stop-loss below the FVG.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In the Bearish ICT Son Model, liquidity at higher market levels is identified in the 1-hour timeframe, where price sweeps these levels to absorb liquidity. Then, in the 5-minute timeframe, an MSS confirms the bearish trend.
After confirmation, the price forms a new swing, absorbing liquidity at a lower level. The price then retraces into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created in the 5-minute timeframe, where the trader enters a short position, placing the stop-loss above the FVG.

Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar.
MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar.
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Son Model setup is a structured and precise method for trade execution based on liquidity analysis and market structure shifts. This strategy first identifies a liquidity level in the 1-hour timeframe and then confirms a trend shift using the 5-minute timeframe.
Trade entries are executed based on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), which highlight optimal entry points. By applying this model, traders can leverage existing market liquidity to enter high-probability trades. The bullish setup activates when liquidity is swept from market lows and a market structure shift confirms an upward trend, whereas the bearish setup is used when liquidity is drawn from market highs, confirming a downtrend.
This approach enables traders to identify high-probability trade setups with greater precision compared to many other strategies. Additionally, since access to the 30-second timeframe is limited, the strategy remains fully functional in the 5-minute timeframe, making it more practical and accessible for a wider range of traders.
Reversal Probability Zone & Levels [LuxAlgo]The Reversal Probability Zone & Levels tool allows traders to identify a zone starting from the last detected reversal to highlight the probability of where the next reversal would be from a price and time perspective.
Price and time levels within the zone are displayed for up to 4 percentiles defined by the user.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool displays a zone with the 25th, 50th, 75th and 90th percentiles on both the price and time axis, indicating where, when and how many of the past reversals have occurred.
Traders can select the length for swing detection and the maximum number of reversals for probability calculations. The tool considers both bullish and bearish reversals separately, which means that if the last reversal was a swing high, the zone would show the probabilities for the last defined Maximum reversals
The Maximum reversals value has a direct impact on the probabilities, the more data traders use the more significant the result, probabilities over 10 occurrences are far weak compared to probabilities over 1000 occurrences.
🔹 Percentiles
Traders can fine-tune the percentile parameters in the settings panel.
A given percentile means that the number of occurrences in the data set is less than or equal to the percentile.
In English, this means
Percentile 20th: 20% of the occurrences are less than or equal to this value, so 80% of the occurrences are greater than this value.
Percentile 50th: 50% of the occurrences are below and 50% are above this value.
Percentile 80th: 80% of occurrences are lower than or equal to this value, so 20% of occurrences are greater than this value.
🔹 Normalize data
The Normalize Data feature allows traders to make an apples to apples comparison when we have a lot of historical data on high timeframe charts, using returns between swings instead of raw price.
🔹 Display Style
By default, the tool has the No overlapping feature enabled to display a clean chart, traders can turn it off, but this can fill the chart with too much information and barely see the price.
Traders can enable/disable settings to show only the last zone and the swing markers on the chart.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: The maximum length in bars used to identify a swing
Maximum Reversals: Maximum number of reversals included in calculations
Normalize Data: Use returns between swings instead of raw price
Percentiles: Enable/disable each of the four percentiles and select the percentile number, line style, colors, and size
🔹 Style
No Overlapping Zones: Enable or disable the No overlap between zones feature
Show Only Last Zone: Enable/disable display of last zone only
Show Marks: Enable/disable reversal markers
One Trading Setup for Life ICT [TradingFinder] Sweep Session FVG🔵 Introduction
ICT One Trading Setup for Life is a trading strategy based on liquidity and market structure shifts, utilizing the PM Session Sweep to determine price direction. In this strategy, the market first forms a price range during the PM Session (from 13:30 to 16:00 EST), which includes the highest high (PM Session High) and lowest low (PM Session Low).
In the next session, the price first touches one of these levels to trigger a Liquidity Hunt before confirming its trend by breaking the Change in State of Delivery (CISD) Level. After this confirmation, the price retraces toward a Fair Value Gap (FVG) or Order Block (OB), which serve as the best entry points in alignment with liquidity.
In financial markets, liquidity is the primary driver of price movement, and major market participants such as institutional investors and banks are constantly seeking liquidity at key levels. This process, known as Liquidity Hunt or Liquidity Sweep, occurs when the price reaches an area with a high concentration of orders, absorbs liquidity, and then reverses direction.
In this setup, the PM Session range acts as a trading framework, where its highs and lows function as key liquidity zones that influence the next session’s price movement. After the New York market opens at 9:30 EST, the price initially breaks one of these levels to capture liquidity.
However, for a trend shift to be confirmed, the CISD Level must be broken.
Once the CISD Level is breached, the price retraces toward an FVG or OB, which serve as optimal trade entry points.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
In this strategy, the PM Session range is first identified, which includes the highest high (PM Session High) and lowest low (PM Session Low) between 13:30 and 16:00 EST. In the following session, the price touches one of these levels for a Liquidity Hunt, followed by a break of the Change in State of Delivery (CISD) Level. The price then retraces toward a Fair Value Gap (FVG) or Order Block (OB), creating a trading opportunity.
This process can occur in two scenarios : bearish and bullish setups.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In a bullish scenario, the PM Session High and PM Session Low are identified. In the following session, the price first breaks the PM Session Low, absorbing liquidity. This process results in a Fake Breakout to the downside, misleading retail traders into taking short positions.
After the Liquidity Hunt, the CISD Level is broken, confirming a trend reversal. The price then retraces toward an FVG or OB, offering an optimal long entry opportunity.
The initial take-profit target is the PM Session High, but if higher timeframe liquidity levels exist, extended targets can be set.
The stop-loss should be placed below the Fake Breakout low or the first candle of the FVG.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In a bearish scenario, the market first defines its PM Session High and PM Session Low. In the next session, the price initially breaks the PM Session High, triggering a Liquidity Hunt. This movement often causes a Fake Breakout, misleading retail traders into taking incorrect positions.
After absorbing liquidity, the CISD Level breaks, indicating a shift in market structure. The price then retraces toward an FVG or OB, offering the best short entry opportunity.
The initial take-profit target is the PM Session Low, but if additional liquidity exists on higher timeframes, lower targets can be considered.
The stop-loss should be placed above the Fake Breakout high or the first candle of the FVG.
🔵 Setting
CISD Bar Back Check : The Bar Back Check option enables traders to specify the number of past candles checked for identifying the CISD Level, enhancing CISD Level accuracy on the chart.
Order Block Validity : The number of candles that determine the validity of an Order Block.
FVG Validity : The duration for which a Fair Value Gap remains valid.
CISD Level Validity : The duration for which a CISD Level remains valid after being broken.
New York PM Session : Defines the PM Session range from 13:30 to 16:00 EST.
New York AM Session : Defines the AM Session range from 9:30 to 16:00 EST.
Refine Order Block : Enables finer adjustments to Order Block levels for more accurate price responses.
Mitigation Level OB : Allows users to set specific reaction points within an Order Block, including: Proximal: Closest level to the current price. 50% OB: Midpoint of the Order Block. Distal: Farthest level from the current price.
FVG Filter : The Judas Swing indicator includes a filter for Fair Value Gap (FVG), allowing different filtering based on FVG width: FVG Filter Type: Can be set to "Very Aggressive," "Aggressive," "Defensive," or "Very Defensive." Higher defensiveness narrows the FVG width, focusing on narrower gaps.
Mitigation Level FVG : Like the Order Block, you can set price reaction levels for FVG with options such as Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal.
Demand Order Block : Enables or disables bullish Order Block.
Supply Order Block : Enables or disables bearish Order Blocks.
Demand FVG : Enables or disables bullish FVG.
Supply FVG : Enables or disables bearish FVGs.
Show All CISD : Enables or disables the display of all CISD Levels.
Show High CISD : Enables or disables high CISD levels.
Show Low CISD : Enables or disables low CISD levels.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT One Trading Setup for Life is a liquidity-based strategy that leverages market structure shifts and precise entry points to identify high-probability trade opportunities. By focusing on PM Session High and PM Session Low, this setup first captures liquidity at these levels and then confirms trend shifts with a break of the Change in State of Delivery (CISD) Level.
Entering a trade after a retracement to an FVG or OB allows traders to position themselves at optimal liquidity levels, ensuring high reward-to-risk trades. When used in conjunction with higher timeframe bias, order flow, and liquidity analysis, this strategy can become one of the most effective trading methods within the ICT Concept framework.
Successful execution of this setup requires risk management, patience, and a deep understanding of liquidity dynamics. Traders can enhance their confidence in this strategy by conducting extensive backtesting and analyzing past market data to optimize their approach for different assets.
Overextension Oscillator [by DanielM]The Overextension Oscillator is an indicator that detects when a market move has extended significantly beyond its typical range, signaling potential areas for a correction or reversal. Unlike traditional oscillators that rely on fixed overbought/oversold levels, this tool dynamically adjusts its thresholds based on historical swing high and swing low movements.
By analyzing all swing points on the chart, the indicator determines the expected range of price movements and identifies when the price extends beyond normal levels. Since every asset has different price behavior and volatility, swing lengths may vary from asset to asset, ensuring that overextension is measured relative to each market's historical price behavior.
How It Works
1️⃣ Swing Detection & Data Collection
The indicator scans all available swing highs and swing lows on the chart to gather a complete dataset of past price fluctuations.
It records the percentage differences between swings to determine how much price typically moves in a given market.
2️⃣ Overextension Calculation
Using the stored swing data, the indicator calculates:
Average Swing Difference – Measures the average percentage difference between swings.
Average Move Percentage – Determines the typical magnitude of price moves within a trend cycle.
These values are used to create dynamic overextension thresholds that adjust based on historical data.
3️⃣ Price Distance & Overextension Measurement
The indicator calculates the distance between the current price and the closest historical swing point. If this distance exceeds the predefined threshold based on past swings, the move is considered overextended. The greater the deviation, the higher the probability of a pullback or short-term reversal.
4️⃣ Buy/Sell Signal Generation
A Buy signal is generated when the price has dropped below an overextended threshold relative to a past swing low.
A Sell signal is generated when the price has risen beyond an overextended threshold relative to a past swing high.
These signals indicate that the price has reached a level where it historically tends to slow down or reverse.
Half-Trend Channel [BigBeluga]Half Trend Channel is a powerful trend-following indicator designed to identify trend direction, fakeouts, and potential reversal points. The combination of upper/lower bands, midline coloring, and specific signals makes it ideal for spotting trend continuation and market reversals.
The base of the channel is calculated using smoothed half-trend logic.
// Initialize half trend on the first bar
if barstate.isfirst
hl_t := close
// Update half trend value based on conditions
switch
closeMA < hl_t and highestHigh < hl_t => hl_t := highestHigh
closeMA > hl_t and lowestLow > hl_t => hl_t := lowestLow
=> hl_t := hl_t
// Smooth
float s_hlt = ta.hma(hl_t, len)
🔵 Key Features:
Upper and Lower Bands:
The bands adapt dynamically to market volatility.
Price movements toward the bands help identify areas of overextension and potential reversal points.
Midline Trend Signal:
The midline changes color to reflect the current trend:
Green Midline: Indicates an uptrend.
Purple Midline: Signals a downtrend.
Fakeout Signals ("X"):
"X" markers appear when price briefly breaches the outer bands but fails to sustain the move.
Fakeouts help traders identify areas where price momentum weakens.
Reversal Signals (Triangles):
Triangles (▲ and ▼) mark potential tops and bottoms:
▲ Up Triangles: Suggest a potential bottom and a reversal to the upside.
▼ Down Triangles: Indicate a potential top and a reversal to the downside.
Dynamic Trend Labels:
At the last bar, the indicator displays labels like "Trend Up" or "Trend Dn" , reflecting the current trend direction.
🔵 Usage:
Use the colored midline to determine the overall trend direction.
Monitor "X" fakeout signals to spot failed breakouts or momentum exhaustion near the bands.
Watch for reversal triangles (▲ and ▼) to identify potential trend reversals at tops or bottoms.
Combine the bands and midline signals to confirm trade entries and exits:
Enter long trades when price bounces off the lower band with a green midline.
Consider short trades when price reverses from the upper band with a purple midline.
Use the trend label (e.g., "Trend Up" or "Trend Dn") for quick confirmation of the current market state.
The Half Trend Channel is an essential tool for traders who want to follow trends, avoid fakeouts, and identify reliable tops and bottoms to optimize their trading decisions.
Bearish Wick Reversal█ STRATEGY OVERVIEW
The "Bearish Wick Reversal Strategy" identifies potential bullish reversals following significant bearish price rejection (long lower wicks). This counter-trend approach enters long positions when bearish candles show exaggerated downside wicks relative to closing prices, then exits on bullish confirmation signals. Includes optional EMA trend filtering for improved reliability.
█ What is a Bearish Wick?
A price rejection pattern where:
Bearish candle (close < open) forms with extended lower wick
Wick represents failed selloff: Low drops significantly below close
Measured as: (Low - Close)/Close × 100 (Negative percentage indicates downward extension)
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY CONDITION
Bearish candle forms with close < open
Lower wick exceeds user-defined threshold (Default: -1% of close price)
The signal occurs within the specified time window
If enabled, the close price must also be above the 200-period EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the highest high of the previous seven bars (`close > _highest `). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
Ideal Market: Volatile instruments with frequent price rejections
Key Risk: False signals in sustained bearish trends
Optimization Tip: Test various thresholds
Filter Impact: EMA reduces trades but improves win rate and reduces drawdown
Gap Down Reversal Strategy█ STRATEGY OVERVIEW
The "Gap Down Reversal Strategy" capitalizes on price recovery patterns following bearish gap-down openings. This mean-reversion approach enters long positions on confirmed intraday recoveries and exits when prices breach previous session highs. This strategy is NOT optimized.
█ What is a Gap Down Reversal?
A gap down reversal occurs when:
An instrument opens significantly below its prior session's low (price gap)
Selling pressure exhausts itself during the session
Buyers regain control, pushing price back above the opening level
Creates a candlestick with:
• Open < Prior Session Low (true gap)
• Close > Open (bullish reversal candle)
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY CONDITION
Previous candle closes BELOW its opening price (bearish candle)
Current session opens BELOW prior candle's low (gap down)
Current candle closes ABOVE its opening price (bullish reversal)
Executes market order at session close
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the highest high of the previous seven bars (`close > _highest `). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
Ideal Market: High volatility instruments with frequent gaps
Key Risk: False reversals in sustained downtrends
Optimization Tip: Test varying gap thresholds (1-3% ranges)
Dragon Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Dragon Detector🔵 Introduction
The Dragon Harmonic Pattern is one of the technical analysis tools that assists traders in identifying Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ). Resembling an "M" or "W" shape, this pattern is recognized in financial markets as a method for predicting bullish and bearish trends. By leveraging precise Fibonacci ratios and measuring price movements, traders can use this pattern to forecast market trends with high accuracy.
The Dragon Harmonic Pattern is built on the XABCD structure, where each point plays a significant role in shaping and forecasting price movements. Point X marks the beginning of the trend, representing the initial price movement. Point A indicates the first retracement, usually falling within the 0.380 to 0.620 range of the XA wave.
Next, point B signals the second retracement, which lies within 0.200 to 0.400 of the AB wave. Point C, acting as the hump of the pattern, is generally located within 0.800 to 1.100 of the XA wave. Finally, point D represents the endpoint of the pattern and the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ), where the primary price reversal occurs.
In bullish scenarios, the Dragon Pattern indicates a reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend, where prices move upward from point D. Conversely, in bearish scenarios, prices decline after reaching point D. Accurate identification of this pattern through Fibonacci ratio analysis and PRZ examination can significantly increase the success rate of trades, enabling traders to adjust their strategies based on key market levels such as 0.618 or 1.100.
Due to its high accuracy in identifying Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ) and its alignment with Fibonacci ratios, the Dragon Harmonic Pattern is considered one of the most popular tools in technical analysis. Traders can use this pattern to pinpoint entry and exit points with greater confidence while minimizing trading risks.

🔵 How to Use
The Dragon Harmonic Pattern indicator helps traders identify bullish and bearish patterns in the market, allowing them to capitalize on available trading opportunities. By analyzing Fibonacci ratios and the XABCD structure, the indicator highlights Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ).
🟣 Bullish Dragon Pattern
In the Bullish Dragon Pattern, the price transitions from a downtrend to an uptrend after reaching point D. At this stage, points X, A, B, C, and D must be carefully identified.
Fibonacci ratios for these points are as follows: Point A should fall within 0.380 to 0.620 of the XA wave, point B within 0.200 to 0.400 of the AB wave, and point C within 0.800 to 1.100 of the XA wave.
When the price reaches point D, traders should look for bullish signals such as reversal candlesticks or increased trading volume to enter a buy position. The take-profit level can be set near the previous price high or based on the 1.272 Fibonacci ratio of the XA wave, while the stop-loss should be placed slightly below point D.
🟣 Bearish Dragon Pattern
In the Bearish Dragon Pattern, the price shifts from an uptrend to a downtrend after reaching point D. In this pattern, points X, A, B, C, and D must also be identified. Fibonacci ratios for these points are as follows: Point A should fall within 0.380 to 0.620 of the XA wave, point B within 0.200 to 0.400 of the AB wave, and point C within 0.800 to 1.100 of the XA wave.
Upon reaching point D, bearish signals such as reversal candlesticks or decreasing trading volume indicate the opportunity to enter a sell position. The take-profit level can be set near the previous price low or based on the 1.272 Fibonacci ratio of the XA wave, while the stop-loss should be placed slightly above point D.
By combining the Dragon Harmonic Pattern indicator with precise Fibonacci ratio analysis, traders can identify key opportunities while minimizing risks and improving their decision-making in both bullish and bearish market conditions.

Internal Bar Strength (IBS) Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Internal Bar Strength (IBS) Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify trading opportunities based on the closing price's position within the daily price range. It enters a long position when the IBS indicates oversold conditions and exits when the IBS reaches overbought levels. This strategy was designed to be used on the daily timeframe.
█ WHAT IS INTERNAL BAR STRENGTH (IBS)?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS) measures where the closing price falls within the high-low range of a bar. It is calculated as:
IBS = (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
- **Low IBS (≤ 0.2)**: Indicates the close is near the bar's low, suggesting oversold conditions.
- **High IBS (≥ 0.8)**: Indicates the close is near the bar's high, suggesting overbought conditions.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:
The IBS value drops below the Lower Threshold (default: 0.2).
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the IBS value rises to or above the Upper Threshold (default: 0.8). This prompts the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Upper Threshold: The IBS level at which the strategy exits trades. Default is 0.8.
Lower Threshold: The IBS level at which the strategy enters long positions. Default is 0.2.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for ranging markets and performs best when prices frequently revert to the mean.
It is sensitive to extreme IBS values, which help identify potential reversals.
Backtesting results should be analyzed to optimize the Upper/Lower Thresholds for specific instruments and market conditions.
