Master Pattern [LuxAlgo]The Master Pattern indicator is derived from the framework proposed by Wyckoff and automatically displays major/minor patterns and their associated expansion lines on the chart.
Liquidity levels are also included and can be used as targets/stops. Note that the Liquidity levels are plotted retrospectively as they are based on pivots.
🔶 USAGE
The Master Pattern indicator detects contraction phases in the markets (characterized by a lower high and higher low). The resulting average from the latest swing high/low is used as expansion line. Price breaking the contraction range upwards highlights a bullish master pattern, while a break downward highlights a bearish master pattern.
During the expansion phase price can tend to be stationary around the expansion level. This phase is then often followed by the price significantly deviating from the expansion line, highlighting a markup phase.
Expansion lines can also be used as support/resistance levels.
🔹 Major/Minor Patterns
The script can classify patterns as major or minor patterns.
Major patterns occur when price breaks both the upper and lower extremity of a contraction range, with their contraction area highlighted with a border, while minor patterns have only a single extremity broken.
🔶 SETTINGS
Contraction Detection Lookback: Lookback used to detect the swing points used to detect the contraction range.
Liquidity Levels: Lookback for the swing points detection used as liquidity levels. Higher values return longer term liquidity levels.
Show Major Pattern: Display major patterns.
Show Minor Pattern: Display minor patterns.

Global LiquidityThe "Global Liquidity" script is an indicator that calculates and displays the global liquidity value using a formula that takes into account the money supply of several major economies. The script utilizes data from various sources, such as the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED), Economics, and FX_IDC.
The indicator plots the global liquidity value as a candlestick chart and breaks it down into two categories: the Euro-Atlantic region (West) and the rest of the world (East). The values are denominated both in inflation-adjusted dollars and in trillions of dollars. The script also calculates the spread between the Euro-Atlantic region and the rest of the world.
Traders and investors can use this indicator to gauge the overall liquidity of the global economy and to identify potential investment opportunities or risks. By breaking down the liquidity value into different regions, traders can also gain insights into regional economic trends and dynamics.

USD Liquidity IndexThis USD Liquidity Index composed of 2 parts, total assets and major liabilities of the Federal Reserve .
There is a certain positive correlation between USD liquidity and risk asset price changes in history.
Suggested that USD Liquidity is mostly determined by the Federal Reserve balance (without leveraged), this index deducts three major liabilities from the total assets (in green color line) of the Federal Reserve . They are the currency in circulation (WCURCIR) in gold color, the Treasury General Account (WTREGEN) in blue color, the Reverse Repo (RRPONTSYD) in red color.
The grey line is the calculation result of the USD Liquidity Index. With it goes up, liquidity increases, vice versa.
USD Liquidity Regime IndexTrack global risk regimes with this USD Liquidity Composite —
It aims to be a daily macro indicator blending normalised DXY (50%), UUP (20%), 10Y Treasury yields (20%), and VIX (10%).
How to read:
When the blue index is above its red SMA: Strong USD, tightening liquidity → Risk-Off mode (often bearish for Nasdaq, BTC, and risk assets).
When the line is below: Weak USD, abundant liquidity → Risk-On (bullish environment).
Example: In 2022's bear market, the index stayed high above SMA most of the year, signalling persistent Risk-Off as USD surged.
Features on-chart table, regime background colors, and crossover alerts.
Great contextual tool for macro traders IMO.

RSI Divergence LiquidityRSI Divergence Liquidity is an indicator designed to help you catch high-probability BUY reversals by combining two powerful concepts:
OANDA:XAUUSD
Liquidity Sweep / Swing Low: automatically marks swing-low levels and tracks when price sweeps below them and reacts back.
Bullish RSI Divergence: filters noise by comparing RSI at the swing area versus RSI at the retest, favoring reversals with stronger momentum confirmation.
How it works
The script draws Swing Low lines using Pivot Lows. When a new Swing Low forms, the previous one is cut/frozen .
When price retests a Swing Low and the candle conditions are met (bar n bullish, bar n-1 bearish), the script checks:
Whether RSI at n/n-1 is higher than the RSI at the swing (bullish divergence logic)
Whether min RSI at the swing is below a threshold (default < 36) to focus on oversold swing areas
If all conditions pass, the indicator prints an upward triangle right when bar n closes → a potential BUY signal.
How to use
Enter BUY when an up triangle appears at/near the Swing Low (liquidity sweep zone).
Stop Loss idea: below the most recent swing low / below the sweep wick.
Take Profit idea: nearest supply zone, prior high, or fixed RR such as 1:2 / 1:3 depending on your system.
Recommended settings
Best on: M5–H1 (depending on your style), especially effective when price is trending down and performs a clear sweep.
For stricter filtering: lower Max minRSI at Swing (x) to only take signals from deeper RSI lows.
Smaller Pivot Lookback → more swings/signals; larger values → fewer but cleaner swings.
Note: This tool improves probability, not certainty. Combine it with market structure / key levels and proper risk management for best results.

1. ภาพรวมการทำงาน (Overview)
อินดิเคเตอร์ตัวนี้ทำหน้าที่ 4 อย่างหลักพร้อมกัน:
Auto DST (ปรับเวลาตามฤดูอัตโนมัติ): คุณไม่ต้องมานั่งแก้เวลาเมื่อตลาดต่างประเทศเปลี่ยนเวลา (Daylight Saving Time) เพราะโค้ดอ้างอิง Timezone ของตลาดนั้นๆ โดยตรง (เช่น NY ใช้ America/New_York)
Session Bars: แสดงแถบสีเล็กๆ ด้านล่างจอเพื่อบอกว่าตอนนี้อยู่ใน Session ไหน (Asia, London, NY AM, NY PM, Thai) แทนการถมสีพื้นหลังซึ่งอาจจะรกตา
High/Low Levels & Sweeps: เมื่อจบ Session โปรแกรมจะตีเส้น High และ Low ของช่วงเวลานั้นทิ้งไว้ ถ้ากราฟวิ่งไปชนเส้นเหล่านั้น (Breakout/Sweep) เส้นจะเปลี่ยนเป็นเส้นประและขึ้นข้อความว่า "(Swept)"
1. Indicator Overview and Purpose (ICT/SMC Framework)
This custom Pine Script indicator is designed specifically for traders utilizing ICT (Inner Circle Trader) or SMC (Smart Money Concepts) methodologies. Its primary function is to simplify the analysis of Time & Price by automatically defining and tracking key market sessions, their resulting liquidity levels (High/Low), and detecting liquidity sweeps (Stop Hunts).
The indicator is designed to be Zero-Maintenance regarding time zones, as it automatically adjusts for Daylight Saving Time (DST) changes in major financial centers (London, New York).
2. Key Features and Logic
A. Automatic DST Handling (Auto-DST)
The script uses specific, location-based time zones for global markets instead of a fixed GMT/UTC offset.
Asia: Uses Asia/Tokyo.
London: Uses Europe/London (Automatically adjusts for BST).
New York (AM/PM): Uses America/New_York (Automatically adjusts for EST/EDT).
This guarantees that the session times displayed on your chart (regardless of your local time, e.g., Thailand GMT+7) always align with the actual opening and closing moments of the corresponding financial market.
For Vietnamese: 3D Volume Weighted Liquidity LevelIntroduction
The 3D Volume Weighted Liquidity Level indicator visualizes market structure by identifying key support and resistance zones based on Pivot Highs and Lows. Unlike standard support/resistance lines, this tool adds a "3D" dimension by calculating the depth of the zone based on Accumulated Volume and Volatility (ATR). This helps traders visualize the "weighted" or significance of a specific price level.
Key Features
- 3D Visualization: Draws geometric boxes connecting similar Pivot points to create clear structural zones.
- Volume & Volatility Depth: The height (depth) of the box is not random. It is calculated dynamically using the accumulated volume between pivots multiplied by the ATR. Thicker boxes imply higher volume accumulation and volatility at that level.
- Liquidity Grab Detection: The indicator automatically detects and highlights bars that "grab liquidity" (break the top of a resistance box or the bottom of a support box), signaling potential stop hunts or reversals.
- Customizable Sensitivity: Users can adjust pivot lengths, search depth, and the volume scaling factor to fit different timeframes and assets.
How to Use
- Support & Resistance: Use the Blue Boxes as potential Support zones and Red Boxes as potential Resistance zones.
- Trend Reversals: Watch for the Liquidity Grab signals (colored bars). If price pierces a box but fails to close significantly beyond it, it often indicates a trap or a reversal setup.
- Volume Analysis: Pay attention to the thickness of the boxes. A thicker box suggests that a significant amount of volume was traded to form that structure, making it a stronger level of interest.
XAUUSD Liquidity Sweep + Engulfing (4H/2H/15m)Key Features in This Script:
4H Bias (Trend): We use RSI on 4H to determine if the market is in a bullish or bearish trend.
2H Setup: When price sweeps below previous lows or above previous highs (liquidity sweep), we confirm it with RSI and an engulfing candle.
15m Entry: After the liquidity sweep is confirmed on the 15m chart, we check for a bullish engulfing (for buys) or bearish engulfing (for sells) with RSI confirmation.
How to Use It:
Add the Script: Copy-paste the code above into TradingView’s Pine Editor.
Apply it to the 15-minute chart for XAUUSD (Gold).
Alerts: Set up alerts when a Buy or Sell signal appears based on the conditions.
Alerts Example:
When a liquidity sweep and RSI flip happens with an engulfing candle, TradingView will notify you, helping you enter at the right time.

USD Liquidity / FX Swap + Money Market StressThis indicator shows, in a simple way, how tight or loose USD liquidity is. It combines two things: signs of stress in the FX market (Fed swap lines + dollar strength) and signs from the money market (the difference between repo rates like SOFR/TGCR and the Fed’s IORB rate). All of this is merged into a single blue line: when it rises, liquidity tends to be more abundant; when it falls, there is more stress and the dollar becomes “expensive” to obtain.
You read it like a traffic light:
If the background is red, the indicator is below the lower threshold → liquidity stress, an environment that is more prone to sell-offs and violent moves in risk assets (including crypto).
If the background is green, the indicator is above the upper threshold → more relaxed liquidity, a backdrop that is more favorable for risk rallies to be sustained.
No background color → neutral zone, neither very good nor very bad: you trade according to your usual system.
It is designed as a macro context filter, not as a buy/sell signal. In red, it makes sense to be more defensive with risk and leverage; in green, if your technical system gives a long signal, you have a somewhat more favorable tailwind. It should always be used together with other tools and strict risk management.
Session Open Range, Breakout & Trap Framework - TrendPredator OBSession Open Range, Breakout & Trap Framework — TrendPredator Open Box
Stacey Burke’s trading approach combines concepts from George Douglas Taylor, Tony Crabel, Steve Mauro, and Robert Schabacker. His framework focuses on reading price behaviour across daily templates and identifying how markets move through recurring cycles of expansion, contraction, and reversal. While effective, much of this analysis requires real-time interpretation of session-based behaviour, which can be demanding for traders working on lower intraday timeframes.
The TrendPredator indicators formalize parts of this methodology by introducing mechanical rules for multi-timeframe bias tracking and session structure analysis. They aim to present the key elements of the system—bias, breakouts, fakeouts, and range behaviour—in a consistent and objective way that reduces discretionary interpretation.
The Open Box indicator focuses specifically on the opening behaviour of major trading sessions. It builds on principles found in classical Open Range Breakout (ORB) techniques described by Tony Crabel, where a defined time window around the session open forms a structural reference range. Price behaviour relative to this range—breaking out, failing back inside, or expanding—can highlight developing session bias, potential trap formation, and directional conviction.
This indicator applies these concepts throughout the major equity sessions. It automatically maps the session’s initial range (“Open Box”) and tracks how price interacts with it as liquidity and volatility increase. It also incorporates related structural references such as:
* the first-hour high and low of the futures session
* the exact session open level
* an anchored VWAP starting at the session open
* automated expansion levels projected from the Open Box
In combination, these components provide a unified view of early session activity, including breakout attempts, fakeouts, VWAP reactions, and liquidity targeting. The Open Box offers a structured lens for observing how price transitions through the major sessions (Asia → London → New York) and how these behaviours relate to higher-timeframe bias defined in the broader TrendPredator framework.
Core Features
Open Box (Session Structure)
The indicator defines an initial session range beginning at the selected session open. This “Open Box” represents a fixed time window—commonly the first 30 minutes, or any user-defined duration—that serves as a structural reference for analysing early session behaviour.
The range highlights whether price remains inside the box, breaks out, or rejects the boundaries, providing a consistent foundation for interpreting early directional tendencies and recognising breakout, continuation, or fakeout characteristics.
How it works:
* At the session open, the indicator calculates the high and low over the specified time window.
* This range is plotted as the initial structure of the session.
* Price behaviour at the boundaries can illustrate emerging bias or potential trap formation.
* An optional secondary range (e.g., 15-minute high/low) can be enabled to capture early volatility with additional precision.
Inputs / Options:
* Session specifications (Tokyo, London, New York)
* Open Box start and end times (e.g., equity open + first 30 minutes, or any custom length)
* Open Box colour and label settings
* Formatting options for Open Box high and low lines
* Optional secondary range per session (e.g., 15-minute high/low)
* Forward extension of Open Box high/low lines
* Number of historic Open Boxes to display
Session VWAPs
The indicator plots VWAPs for each major trading session—Asia, London, and New York—anchored to their respective session opens. These session-specific VWAPs assist in tracking how value develops through the day and how price interacts with session-based volume distributions.
How it works:
* At each session open, a VWAP is anchored to the open price.
* The VWAP updates throughout the session as new volume and price data arrive.
* Deviations above or below the VWAP may indicate balance, imbalance, or directional control.
* Viewed together, session VWAPs help identify transitions in value across sessions.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable or disable VWAP per session
* Adjustable anchor and end times (optionally to end of day)
* Line styling and label settings
* Number of historic VWAPs to draw
First Hour High/Low Extensions
The indicator marks the high and low formed during the first hour of each session. These reference points often function as early control levels and provide context for assessing whether the session is establishing bias, consolidating, or exhibiting reversal behaviour.
How it works:
* After the session starts, the indicator records the highest and lowest prices during the first hour.
* These levels are plotted and extended across the session.
* They provide a visual reference for observing reactions, targets, or rejection zones.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable or disable for each session
* Line style, colour, and label visibility
* Number of historic sessions displayed
EQO Levels (Equity Open)
The indicator plots the opening price of each configured session. These “Equity Open” levels represent short-term reference points that can attract price early in the session.
Once the level is revisited after the Open Box has formed, it is automatically cut to avoid clutter. If not revisited, the line remains as an untested reference, similar to a naked point of control.
How it works:
* At session open, the open price is recorded.
* The level is plotted as a local reference.
* If price interacts with the level after the Open Box completes, the line is cut.
* Untested EQOs extend forward until interacted with.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable/disable per session
* Line style and label settings
* Optional extension into the next day
* Option for cutting vs. hiding on revisit
* Number of historic sessions displayed
OB Range Expansions (Automatic)
Range expansions are calculated from the height of the Open Box. These levels provide structured reference zones for identifying potential continuation or exhaustion areas within a session.
How it works:
* After the Open Box is formed, multiples of the range (e.g., 1×, 2×, 3×) are projected.
* These expansion levels are plotted above and below the range.
* Price reactions near these areas can illustrate continuation, hesitation, or potential reversal.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable or disable per session
* Select number of multiples
* Line style, colour, and label settings
* Extension length into the session
Stacey Burke 12-Candle Window Marker
The indicator can highlight the 12-candle window often referenced in Stacey Burke’s session methodology. This window represents the key active period of each session where breakout attempts, volatility shifts, and reversal signatures often occur.
How it works:
* A configurable window (default 12 candles) is highlighted from each session open.
* This window acts as a guide for observing active session behaviour.
* It remains visible throughout the session for structural context.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable/disable per session
* Configurable window duration (default: 3 hours)
* Colour and transparency controls
Concept and Integration
The Open Box is built around the same multi-timeframe logic that underpins the broader TrendPredator framework.
While higher-timeframe tools track bias and setups across the H8–D–W–M levels, the Open Box focuses on the H1–M30 domain to define session structure and observe how early intraday behaviour aligns with higher-timeframe conditions.
The indicator integrates with the TrendPredator FO (Breakout, Fakeout & Trend Switch Detector), which highlights microstructure signals on lower timeframes (M15/M5). Together they form a layered workflow:
* Higher timeframes: context, bias, and developing setups
* TrendPredator OB: intraday and intra-session structure
* TrendPredator FO: microstructure confirmation (e.g., FOL/FOH, switches)
This alignment provides a structured way to observe how daily directional context interacts with intraday behaviour.
See the public open source indicator TP FO here (click on it for access):
Practical Application
Before Session Open
* Review previous session Open Box, Open level, and VWAPs
* Assess how higher-timeframe bias aligns with potential intraday continuation or reversal
* Note untested EQO levels or VWAPs that may function as liquidity attractors
During Session Open
* Observe behaviour around the first-hour high/low and higher-timeframe reference levels
* Monitor how the M15 and 30-minute ranges close
* Track reactions relative to the session open level and the session VWAP
After the Open Box completes
* Assess price interaction with Open Box boundaries and first-hour levels
* Use microstructure signals (e.g., FOH/FOL, switches) for potential confirmation
* Refer to expansion levels as reference zones for management or target setting
After Session
* Review how price behaved relative to the Open Box, EQO levels, VWAPs, and expansion zones
* Analyse breakout attempts, fakeouts, and whether intraday structure aligned with the broader daily move
Example Workflow and Trade
1. Higher-timeframe analysis signals a Daily Fakeout Low Continuation (bullish context).
2. The New York session forms an Open Box; price breaks above and holds above the first-hour high.
3. A Fakeout Low + Switch Bar appears on M5 (via FO), after retesting the session VWAP triggering the entry.
4. 1x expansion level serves as reference targets for take profit.
Relation to the TrendPredator Ecosystem
The Open Box is part of the TrendPredator Indicator Family, designed to apply multi-timeframe logic consistently across:
* higher-timeframe context and setups
* intraday and session structure (OB)
* microstructure confirmation (FO)
Together, these modules offer a unified structure for analysing how daily and intraday cycles interact.

Global Liquidity - Impulse (ROC & Z-score) [GMI-style]What it is:
Liquidity is a faucet. When central banks add money, the faucet opens (risk-on). When they pull money out, it closes (risk-off). This indicator builds a global net-liquidity proxy and shows its impulse :
- ROC (green/red histogram): % change vs N weeks ago.
- Z-score (cyan line): how unusually strong the latest weekly move is.
Why it matters:
Liquidity impulse often leads risk assets (equities/crypto) by weeks to a few months.
- Green bars > 0 + positive Z → friendlier risk-on backdrop.
- Red bars < 0 + negative Z → tightening conditions; caution.
Data used (TV Economics / FRED):
USA (FRED, millions USD):
- FRED:WALCL (Fed assets)
- FRED:RRPONTSYD (Reverse Repo – subtract)
- FRED:WTREGEN (Treasury General Account – subtract)
Other CBs (Economics, units vary):
- ECONOMICS:EUCBBS (ECB)

- ECONOMICS:CHCBBS (SNB, Switzerland)
- ECONOMICS:AUCBBS (RBA, Australia)
Proxy (scaled to billions):
(Fed − RRP − TGA) + ECB + BoJ + PBoC +
How to read:
- Green bars above 0 = faucet opening → money in → risk-on.
- Red bars below 0 = faucet closing → money out → risk-off.
- Taller bar = stronger push.
- Cyan Z > +1 = unusually strong positive impulse; Z < −1 = unusually strong negative impulse.
- Background : green when ROC>0 & Z>0 , red when ROC<0 & Z<0 .
Quick reading guide (TL;DR):
- Early risk-on: ROC crosses > 0 and Z > 0 (ideally Z ≥ +1 ).
- Early risk-off: ROC crosses < 0 and Z < 0 (ideally Z ≤ −1 ).
- Use weekly timeframe; price often reacts with a 0–12 week lag.
- Combine with PMIs/New Orders, real yields (down), and credit spreads (narrowing).

NFCI National Financial Conditions IndexChicago Fed National Financial Conditions Index (NFCI)
This indicator plots the Chicago Fed’s National Financial Conditions Index (NFCI).
The NFCI updates weekly, and its latest value is displayed across all chart intervals.
The NFCI measures how tight or loose overall U.S. financial conditions are. It combines over 100 weekly indicators from the money, bond, and equity markets—along with credit and leverage data—into a single composite index.
The NFCI has three key subcomponents, each of which can be independently selected within the indicator:
Risk: Captures volatility, credit spreads, and overall market stress.
Credit: Tracks how easy or difficult it is to borrow across households and businesses.
Leverage: Reflects the level of debt and balance-sheet strength in the financial system.
When the NFCI rises, financial conditions are tightening — liquidity is contracting, borrowing costs are climbing, and investors tend to reduce risk.
When the NFCI falls, conditions are loosening — liquidity expands, credit flows more freely, and markets generally become more risk-seeking.
Traders often use the NFCI as a macro backdrop for risk appetite: rising values signal growing stress and defensive positioning, while falling values indicate improving liquidity and a more supportive market environment.

- Position sizing: Calculate positions by fixed risk percentage; initial stop-loss is ATR-based, complying with exchange min/max lot requirements.
- Exits & risk management: Include initial stop-loss, trailing stop (tightens only), break-even rule (stop moves to entry when target floating profit is hit), time-based exit, and post-exit cooldowns.
- Pyramiding: Add positions only when profitable with favorable momentum, requiring ATR-based spacing; add size is a fraction of the base position, with layers sharing stop logic but having unique order IDs.
Charts display EMA, Donchian channels, current stop lines, and highlight low ADX, avoidable funding windows, and low-liquidity periods.
Recommend starting with 4H or 1D timeframes, with typical parameters varying by cycle. Liquidity settings differ by token; perpetuals should enable funding window filters, while spot requires "long-only" and matching fees. The strategy performs well in trends with quick stop-losses but faces whipsaws in ranges (filters mitigate but don’t eliminate noise). Share your symbol and timeframe for tailored parameters.

Previous Day Liquidity ZonesThis indicator is designed for intraday liquidity-based trading strategies and helps traders identify high-probability reversal or breakout zones based on smart money concepts.
It automatically plots the:
🟥 Previous Day High Zone – potential buy-side liquidity trap
🟩 Previous Day Low Zone – potential sell-side liquidity trap
🟧 Previous Day Close Zone – potential rebalancing or indecision zone
These levels are critical areas where institutional stop-hunting, reversals, and fake breakouts often occur.
🎯 How to Use
Use this indicator on 1-minute or 5-minute charts for stocks, indices (like NIFTY, BANKNIFTY), or forex.
Watch for price entering these zones during live market hours.
Combine with price action confirmation:
Rejection wicks
Engulfing candles
Change of character (CHoCH) or BOS
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
First 5-minute candle (9:15 AM in Indian market) is highlighted for breakout setups.
🧠 Smart Money Logic
These zones mimic the logic used by institutions to:
Trigger retail stop-losses
Reverse market direction near liquidity pools
Trap breakout traders around session extremes

S&P Power Hour Liquidity Sweep StrategyThis indicator is designed for intraday traders who want to take advantage of liquidity grabs, break of structure (BOS), and optimal entry points during the most volatile hours of the trading day: the NYSE Power Hours (09:30–10:30 AM and 02:30–04:00 PM EST).
Key Features:
Power Hour Detection:
Automatically identifies the two most liquid hours of the trading session.
Liquidity Sweep Detection:
Highlights when price sweeps a recent swing high or low — a common trap before reversals.
Break of Structure (BOS):
Confirms trend shift after a liquidity sweep with smart money-style BOS markers.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Highlighting: (Optional)
Spot institutional imbalances between candles to fine-tune trade entries.
How It Works:
Wait for price to sweep a swing high or low during the power hours.
Look for a break of structure (BOS) in the opposite direction.
Enter on the next candle or FVG retest.
The indicator will plot a yellow circle for entry, a red line for stop, and a green line for the target (based on your RR setting).
Customizable Inputs:
Swing sensitivity (lookback bars)
Risk-to-reward ratio
Optional FVG visibility
Best Used With:
Higher timeframe bias (15m/1H)
Order blocks or volume analysis
Avoiding major news events
Whether you're a scalper or precision-based intraday trader, this tool helps you spot high-probability reversal setups with clean visuals and clear confirmations.
AP Session Liquidity with EQH/EQL and Previous DayThis indicator plots key intraday session highs and lows, along with essential market structure levels, to help traders identify areas of interest, potential liquidity zones, and high-probability trade setups. It includes the Asia Session High and Low (typically 00:00–08:00 UTC), London Session High and Low (08:00–12:00 UTC), New York AM Session High and Low (12:00–15:00 UTC), and New York Lunch High and Low (15:00–17:00 UTC). Additionally, it displays the Previous Day’s High and Low for context on recent price action, as well as automatically detected Equal Highs and Lows based on configurable proximity settings to highlight potential liquidity pools or engineered price levels. These session levels are widely used by institutional traders and are critical for analyzing market behavior during time-based volatility windows. Traders can use this indicator to anticipate breakouts, fakeouts, and reversals around session boundaries—such as liquidity grabs at Asia highs/lows before the London or New York sessions—or to identify key consolidation and expansion zones. Equal Highs and Lows serve as magnets for price, offering insight into potential stop hunts or inducement zones. This tool is ideal for day traders, scalpers, and smart money concept practitioners, and includes full customization for session timings, color schemes, line styles, and alert conditions. Whether you're trading price action, ICT concepts, or supply and demand, this indicator provides a powerful framework for intraday analysis.
BTC Fair Value via Global Liquidity📈 BTC Fair Value via Global Liquidity
This indicator estimates Bitcoin's fair value based on a regression model using Global Liquidity (GLI) data from major central banks.
🔍 How it works:
Fair Value Line (orange): Calculated using a power-law model: Fair Value = e^b * (GLI)^a, where a and b are user-defined parameters based on historical regression.
Global Liquidity (GLI): Combines liquidity metrics from central banks (Fed, ECB, PBoC, BoJ, etc.), including adjustments for the RRP and TGA.
Deviation Bands (green/red dashed): Optional upper and lower bands showing % deviation from fair value (default ±25%). These help identify overbought/oversold conditions.
Delta Plot (gray dots): Displays the % deviation of BTC’s price from its modeled fair value.
⚙️ How to use:
Tune a and b for better model fitting (e.g., via log-log regression).
Use the deviation bands to identify potential entry/exit zones or periods of market inefficiency.
Ideal for macro-level BTC valuation and long-term strategic analysis.
