Uptrick: Acceleration ShiftsIntroduction
Uptrick: Acceleration Shifts is designed to measure and visualize price momentum shifts by focusing on acceleration —the rate of change in velocity over time. It uses various moving average techniques as a trend filter, providing traders with a clearer perspective on market direction and potential trade entries or exits.
Purpose
The main goal of this indicator is to spot strong momentum changes (accelerations) and confirm them with a chosen trend filter. It attempts to distinguish genuine market moves from noise, helping traders make more informed decisions. The script can also trigger multiple entries (smart pyramiding) within the same trend, if desired.
Overview
By measuring how quickly price velocity changes (acceleration) and comparing it against a smoothed average of itself, this script generates buy or sell signals once the acceleration surpasses a given threshold. A trend filter is added for further validation. Users can choose from multiple smoothing methods and color schemes, and they can optionally enable a small table that displays real-time acceleration values.
Originality and Uniqueness
This script offers an acceleration-based approach, backed by several different moving average choices. The blend of acceleration thresholds, a trend filter, and an optional extra-entry (pyramiding) feature provides a flexible toolkit for various trading styles. The inclusion of multiple color themes and a slope-based coloring of the trend line adds clarity and user customization.
Inputs & Features
1. Acceleration Length (length)
This input determines the number of bars used when calculating velocity. Specifically, the script computes velocity by taking the difference in closing prices over length bars, and then calculates acceleration based on how that velocity changes over an additional length. The default is 14.
2. Trend Filter Length (smoothing)
This sets the lookback period for the chosen trend filter method. The default of 50 results in a moderately smooth trend line. A higher smoothing value will create a slower-moving trend filter.
3. Acceleration Threshold (threshold)
This multiplier determines when acceleration is considered strong enough to trigger a main buy or sell signal. A default value of 2.5 means the current acceleration must exceed 2.5 times the average acceleration before signaling.
4. Smart Pyramiding Strength (pyramidingThreshold)
This lower threshold is used for additional (pyramiding) entries once the main trend has already been identified. For instance, if set to 0.5, the script looks for acceleration crossing ±0.5 times its average acceleration to add extra positions.
5. Max Pyramiding Entries (maxPyramidingEntries)
This sets a limit on how many extra positions can be opened (beyond the first main signal) in a single directional trend. The default of 3 ensures traders do not become overexposed.
6. Show Acceleration Table (showTable)
When enabled, a small table displaying the current acceleration and its average is added to the top-right corner of the chart. This table helps monitor real-time momentum changes.
7. Smart Pyramiding (enablePyramiding)
This toggle decides whether additional entries (buy or sell) will be generated once a main signal is active. If enabled, these extra signals act as filtered entries, only firing when acceleration re-crosses a smaller threshold (pyramidingThreshold). These signals have a '+' next to their signal on the label.
8. Select Color Scheme (selectedColorScheme)
Allows choosing between various pre-coded color themes, such as Default, Emerald, Sapphire, Golden Blaze, Mystic, Monochrome, Pastel, Vibrant, Earth, or Neon. Each theme applies a distinct pair of colors for bullish and bearish conditions.
9. Trend Filter (TrendFilter)
Lets the user pick one of several moving average approaches to determine the prevailing trend. The options include:
Short Term (TEMA)
EWMA
Medium Term (HMA)
Classic (SMA)
Quick Reaction (DEMA)
Each method behaves differently, balancing reactivity and smoothness.
10. Slope Lookback (slopeOffset)
Used to measure the slope of the trend filter over a set number of bars (default is 10). This slope then influences the coloring of the trend filter line, indicating bullish or bearish tilt.
Note: The script refers to this as the "Massive Slope Index," but it effectively serves as a Trend Slope Calculation, measuring how the chosen trend filter changes over a specified period.
11. Alerts for Buy/Sell and Pyramiding Signals
The script includes built-in alert conditions that can be enabled or configured. These alerts trigger whenever the script detects a main Buy or Sell signal, as well as extra (pyramiding) signals if Smart Pyramiding is active. This feature allows traders to receive immediate notifications or automate a trading response.
Calculation Methodology
1. Velocity and Acceleration
Velocity is derived by subtracting the closing price from its value length bars ago. Acceleration is the difference in velocity over an additional length period. This highlights how quickly momentum is shifting.
2. Average Acceleration
The script smooths raw acceleration with a simple moving average (SMA) using the smoothing input. Comparing current acceleration against this average provides a threshold-based signal mechanism.
3. Trend Filter
Users can pick one of five moving average types to form a trend baseline. These range from quick-reacting methods (DEMA, TEMA) to smoother options (SMA, HMA, EWMA). The script checks whether the price is above or below this filter to confirm trend direction.
4. Buy/Sell Logic
A buy occurs when acceleration surpasses avgAcceleration * threshold and price closes above the trend filter. A sell occurs under the opposite conditions. An additional overbought/oversold check (based on a longer SMA) refines these signals further.
When price is considered oversold (i.e., close is below a longer-term SMA), a bullish acceleration signal has a higher likelihood of success because it indicates that the market is attempting to reverse from a lower price region. Conversely, when price is considered overbought (close is above this longer-term SMA), a bearish acceleration signal is more likely to be valid. This helps reduce false signals by waiting until the market is extended enough that a reversal or continuation has a stronger chance of following through.
5. Smart Pyramiding
Once a main buy or sell signal is triggered, additional (filtered) entries can be taken if acceleration crosses a smaller multiplier (pyramidingThreshold). This helps traders scale into strong moves. The script enforces a cap (maxPyramidingEntries) to limit risk.
6. Visual Elements
Candles can be recolored based on the active signal. Labels appear on the chart whenever a main or pyramiding entry signal is triggered. An optional table can show real-time acceleration values.
Color Schemes
The script includes a variety of predefined color themes. For bullish conditions, it might use turquoise or green, and for bearish conditions, magenta or red—depending on which color scheme the user selects. Each scheme aims to provide clear visual differentiation between bullish and bearish market states.
Why Each Indicator Was Part of This Component
Acceleration is employed to detect swift changes in momentum, capturing shifts that may not yet appear in more traditional measures. To further adapt to different trading styles and market conditions, several moving average methods are incorporated:
• TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) is chosen for its ability to reduce lag more effectively than a standard EMA while still reacting swiftly to price changes. Its construction layers exponential smoothing in a way that can highlight sudden momentum shifts without sacrificing too much smoothness.
• DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) provides a faster response than a single EMA by using two layers of exponential smoothing. It is slightly less smoothed than TEMA but can alert traders to momentum changes earlier, though with a higher risk of noise in choppier markets.
• HMA (Hull Moving Average) is known for its balance of smoothness and reduced lag. Its weighted calculations help track trend direction clearly, making it useful for traders who want a smoother line that still reacts fairly quickly.
• SMA (Simple Moving Average) is the classic baseline for smoothing price data. It offers a clear, stable perspective on long-term trends, though it reacts more slowly than other methods. Its simplicity can be beneficial in lower-volatility or more stable market environments.
• EWMA (Exponentially Weighted Moving Average) provides a middle ground by emphasizing recent price data while still retaining some degree of smoothing. It typically responds faster than an SMA but is less aggressive than DEMA or TEMA.
Alongside these moving average techniques, the script employs a slope calculation (referred to as the “Massive Slope Index”) to visually indicate whether the chosen filter is sloping upward or downward. This adds an extra layer of clarity to directional analysis. The indicator also uses overbought/oversold checks, based on a longer-term SMA, to help filter out signals in overstretched markets—reducing the likelihood of false entries in conditions where the price is already extensively extended.
Additional Features
Alerts can be set up for both main signals and additional pyramiding signals, which is helpful for automated or semi-automated trading. The optional acceleration table offers quick reference values, making momentum monitoring more intuitive. Including explicit alert conditions for Buy/Sell and Pyramiding ensures traders can respond promptly to market movements or integrate these triggers into automated strategies.
Summary
This script serves as a comprehensive momentum-based trading framework, leveraging acceleration metrics and multiple moving average filters to identify potential shifts in market direction. By combining overbought/oversold checks with threshold-based triggers, it aims to reduce the noise that commonly plagues purely reactive indicators. The flexibility of Smart Pyramiding, customizable color schemes, and built-in alerts allows users to tailor their experience and respond swiftly to valid signals, potentially enhancing trading decisions across various market conditions.
Disclaimer
All trading involves significant risk, and users should apply their own judgment, risk management, and broader analysis before making investment decisions.

Celestial Pair Spread Hello friends, after a very long time!
Today, I tried to put into code an idea that came to my mind spontaneously and suddenly.
Note :
This script is experimental and improvable.
I haven't had a chance to try it yet.
TIMEFRAME : 1D (Daily Bars)
CELESTIAL SPREAD
The spread moves in a very limited area and is consistent within itself, especially on days far from the end of the contract.
That's why there is a reassuring sky atmosphere. That's why this name was given completely improvised.
Basic logic of the script
We enter the name of the CME Futures contract we want to enter:
Ex : CL1! , ES1! , ZC1! , NQ1!
The script creates us a pair trade parity divided into secondary contracts.
Example : ES1!/ES2!
What is pair trading?
I will explain briefly here.
For users who are wondering:
www.investopedia.com
Let's get back to our topic.
Now we have created a parity that does not actually exist.
This parity is the manifestation of the relative movements of two contracts.
When the parity rises, ES1! increased,ES2! has fallen.
In the opposite case, We can say: ES1! Contract has been dropped ES2! has increased.
Pair trading is generally a trade that needs to be kept in mind from time to time.
It is a method preferred by professionals who can process very quickly.
Market risk is minimal, but since 2 contracts are purchased, more money is paid and very low percentage profits are made.
It is very expensive to do pair trading, especially with oil and its derivatives and interest security derivatives.
The contract we are considering has micros. (small-item contracts tied to the same value)
So when we switch to our broker MES1!/MES2! We will trade.
For all CME futures :
www.cmegroup.com
Anyway, let's continue:
The script created the parity showing its relationship with the next contract and plotted it as bars.
Celestial bands are just like Bollinger bands, but they consist of 3 bands based on percentage changes rather than standard deviation.
The middle band is obtained from moving averages.
The upper and lower bands are the middle band subjected to a threshold value.
The threshold value can be changed.
0.15 percent was charged for this script.
CAUTION :
As can be seen in the example below;
The most important thing is not to make any transactions when the contract switch dates are approaching.
Therefore, it is recommended to use it just below the main chart.
The blue bars in the parity are
Values that outside the upper and lower threshold values are colored blue.
For this condition
Alerts has been added.
Don't forget to add alert and edit.
MAIN PURPOSE
It is aimed to start a pair trade when such conditions come and to quickly close the trades when the parity basis reaches the value.
OTHER IMPORTANT POINTS
Other issues are broker related issues.
Difference between initial margins and maintanence margins of contracts (between 1! and 2!)
It shouldn't be too high.
The commission should not be too high.
Leverage must be high because the profit percentage is very low.
To calculate leverage you must divide your contract size by the relevant margin requirement.
Sample margin requirement table:
www.interactivebrokers.com
RISKS
It is an experimental and intellectual script,
the risk of contract price differences (maybe it will not leave a profit except for very extreme values)
I remind you of the quickness risk that comes from a two-legged trade.
Alerts definitely synchronized with an audible alert sent to a smartphone as an e-mail notification and displayed on the locked screen for quick action.
Best regards!
MMXM ICT [TradingFinder] Market Maker Model PO3 CHoCH/CSID + FVG🔵 Introduction
The MMXM Smart Money Reversal leverages key metrics such as SMT Divergence, Liquidity Sweep, HTF PD Array, Market Structure Shift (MSS) or (ChoCh), CISD, and Fair Value Gap (FVG) to identify critical turning points in the market. Designed for traders aiming to analyze the behavior of major market participants, this setup pinpoints strategic areas for making informed trading decisions.
The document introduces the MMXM model, a trading strategy that identifies market maker activity to predict price movements. The model operates across five distinct stages: original consolidation, price run, smart money reversal, accumulation/distribution, and completion. This systematic approach allows traders to differentiate between buyside and sellside curves, offering a structured framework for interpreting price action.
Market makers play a pivotal role in facilitating these movements by bridging liquidity gaps. They continuously quote bid (buy) and ask (sell) prices for assets, ensuring smooth trading conditions.
By maintaining liquidity, market makers prevent scenarios where buyers are left without sellers and vice versa, making their activity a cornerstone of the MMXM strategy.
SMT Divergence serves as the first signal of a potential trend reversal, arising from discrepancies between the movements of related assets or indices. This divergence is detected when two or more highly correlated assets or indices move in opposite directions, signaling a likely shift in market trends.
Liquidity Sweep occurs when the market targets liquidity in specific zones through false price movements. This process allows major market participants to execute their orders efficiently by collecting the necessary liquidity to enter or exit positions.
The HTF PD Array refers to premium and discount zones on higher timeframes. These zones highlight price levels where the market is in a premium (ideal for selling) or discount (ideal for buying). These areas are identified based on higher timeframe market behavior and guide traders toward lucrative opportunities.
Market Structure Shift (MSS), also referred to as ChoCh, indicates a change in market structure, often marked by breaking key support or resistance levels. This shift confirms the directional movement of the market, signaling the start of a new trend.
CISD (Change in State of Delivery) reflects a transition in price delivery mechanisms. Typically occurring after MSS, CISD confirms the continuation of price movement in the new direction.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) represents zones where price imbalance exists between buyers and sellers. These gaps often act as price targets for filling, offering traders opportunities for entry or exit.
By combining all these metrics, the Smart Money Reversal provides a comprehensive tool for analyzing market behavior and identifying key trading opportunities. It enables traders to anticipate the actions of major players and align their strategies accordingly.
MMBM :
MMSM :
🔵 How to Use
The Smart Money Reversal operates in two primary states: MMBM (Market Maker Buy Model) and MMSM (Market Maker Sell Model). Each state highlights critical structural changes in market trends, focusing on liquidity behavior and price reactions at key levels to offer precise and effective trading opportunities.
The MMXM model expands on this by identifying five distinct stages of market behavior: original consolidation, price run, smart money reversal, accumulation/distribution, and completion. These stages provide traders with a detailed roadmap for interpreting price action and anticipating market maker activity.
🟣 Market Maker Buy Model
In the MMBM state, the market transitions from a bearish trend to a bullish trend. Initially, SMT Divergence between related assets or indices reveals weaknesses in the bearish trend. Subsequently, a Liquidity Sweep collects liquidity from lower levels through false breakouts.
After this, the price reacts to discount zones identified in the HTF PD Array, where major market participants often execute buy orders. The market confirms the bullish trend with a Market Structure Shift (MSS) and a change in price delivery state (CISD). During this phase, an FVG emerges as a key trading opportunity. Traders can open long positions upon a pullback to this FVG zone, capitalizing on the bullish continuation.
🟣 Market Maker Sell Model
In the MMSM state, the market shifts from a bullish trend to a bearish trend. Here, SMT Divergence highlights weaknesses in the bullish trend. A Liquidity Sweep then gathers liquidity from higher levels.
The price reacts to premium zones identified in the HTF PD Array, where major sellers enter the market and reverse the price direction. A Market Structure Shift (MSS) and a change in delivery state (CISD) confirm the bearish trend. The FVG then acts as a target for the price. Traders can initiate short positions upon a pullback to this FVG zone, profiting from the bearish continuation.
Market makers actively bridge liquidity gaps throughout these stages, quoting continuous bid and ask prices for assets. This ensures that trades are executed seamlessly, even during periods of low market participation, and supports the structured progression of the MMXM model.
The price’s reaction to FVG zones in both states provides traders with opportunities to reduce risk and enhance precision. These pullbacks to FVG zones not only represent optimal entry points but also create avenues for maximizing returns with minimal risk.

Bitcoin Cycle High/Low with functional Alert [heswaikcrypt]Introduction
Just as machines are fine-tuned for maximum efficiency, trading indicators must evolve to meet the demands of ever-changing markets.
Credit goes to the initial author, @NoCreditsLeft I only improved the existing Pi-cycle indicator with a functional alert and included a bull mode indicator in the script. The alert can help you get a live alert at candle close when the cycle tops, bottoms, and the potential bull phase switch occurs.
Philip Swift’s Pi Cycle Top Indicator is a brilliant example of leveraging mathematical relationships to signal critical turning points in Bitcoin’s price cycles. Historically, it has identified market and local tops with some relative accuracy, often within three days, as demonstrated in all the previous bull run cycles.
At its core, the Pi Cycle Indicator derives its name from the mathematical constant π (pi), achieved by using simple moving averages (MAs) in a specific ratio: 𝜋 = Long MA/short MA
The Bull mode switch is calculated using a crossover of the short exponentia moving average and the long moving average.
.
.
.
Knowing when Bitcoin reaches its top—and receiving timely alerts about it—is crucial for successful trading. The indicator is designed to signal;
Potential Bitcoin tops: Purple label
Potential Bitcoin bottoms : green Label, and
Parabolic swing : Yellow diamond shape (relating to the market switching to a potential bull mode)
"Please note: This indicator is tailored for Bitcoin using historical data analysis and should not be considered definitive. However accurate it might be."
Setting alerts
To set the alert conditions, select any alert function call to get alert whenever the conditions are met. The script is configured on dialy TF; you can set it on 1D or weekly TF.

ICT Power Of Three | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Power Of Three Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT's "Power Of Three" strategy. This strategy makes use of these 3 key smart money concepts : Accumulation, Manipulation and Distribution. Each step is explained in detail within this write-up. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Power Of Three Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Power Of Three Strategy
Different Algorithm Modes
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The "Power Of Three" comes from these three keywords "Accumulation, Manipulation and Distribution". Here is a brief explanation of each keyword :
Accumulation -> Accumulation phase is when the smart money accumulate their positions in a fixed range. This phase indicates price stability, generally meaning that the price constantly switches between up & down trend between a low and a high pivot point. When the indicator detects an accumulation zone, the Power Of Three strategy begins.
Manipulation -> When the smart money needs to increase their position sizes, they need retail traders' positions for liquidity. So, they manipulate the market into the opposite direction of their intended direction. This will result in retail traders opening positions the way that the smart money intended them to do, creating liquidity. After this step, the real move that the smart money intended begins.
Distribution -> This is when the real intention of the smart money comes into action. With the new liquidity thanks to the manipulation phase, the smart money add their positions towards the opposite direction of the retail mindset. The purpose of this indicator is to detect the accumulation and manipulation phases, and help the trader move towards the same direction as the smart money for their trades.
Detection Methods Of The Indicator :
Accumulation -> The indicator detects accumulation zones as explained step-by-step :
1. Draw two lines from the lowest point and the highest point of the latest X bars.
2. If the (high line - low line) is lower than Average True Range (ATR) * accumulationConstant
3. After the condition is validated, an accumulation zone is detected. The accumulation zone will be invalidated and manipulation phase will begin when the range is broken.
Manipulation -> If the accumulation range is broken, check if the current bar closes / wicks above the (high line + ATR * manipulationConstant) or below the (low line - ATR * manipulationConstant). If the condition is met, the indicator detects a manipulation zone.
Distribution -> The purpose of this indicator is to try to foresee the distribution zone, so instead of a detection, after the manipulation zone is detected the indicator automatically create a "shadow" distribution zone towards the opposite direction of the freshly detected manipulation zone. This shadow distribution zone comes with a take-profit and stop-loss layout, customizable by the trader in the settings.
The X bars, accumulationConstant and manipulationConstant are subject to change with the "Algorithm Mode" setting. Read the "Settings" section for more information.
This indicator follows these steps and inform you step by step by plotting them in your chart.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suite for the ICT's Power Of Three concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. Different and customizable algorithm modes will help the trader fine-tune the indicator for the asset they are currently trading. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Algorithm Mode -> The indicator offers 3 different detection algorithm modes according to your needs. Here is the explanation of each mode.
a) Small Manipulation
This mode has the default bar length for the accumulation detection, but a lower manipulation constant, meaning that slighter imbalances in the price action can be detected as manipulation. This setting can be useful on tickers that have lower liquidity, thus can be manipulated easier.
b) Big Manipulation
This mode has the default bar length for the accumulation detection, but a higher manipulation constant, meaning that heavier imbalances on the price action are required in order to detect manipulation zones. This setting can be useful on tickers that have higher liquidity, thus can be manipulated harder.
c) Short Accumulation
This mode has a ~70% lower bar length requirement for accumulation zone detection, and the default manipulation constant. This setting can be useful on tickers that are highly volatile and do not enter accumulation phases too often.
Breakout Method -> If "Close" is selected, bar close price will be taken into calculation when Accumulation & Manipulation zone invalidation. If "Wick" is selected, a wick will be enough to validate the corresponding zone.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method -> If "Fixed" is selected, you can adjust the TP / SL ratios from the settings below. If "Dynamic" is selected, the TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm.
Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.
3. Visuals
Show Zones -> Enables / Disables rendering of Accumulation (yellow) and Manipulation (red) zones.
Engulfing with Fibonacci LevelsIndicator Explanation
The indicator identifies bullish and bearish engulfing patterns and plots Fibonacci levels based on these patterns. Here's a detailed explanation of the script:
1. Bullish Engulfing Pattern
A bullish engulfing pattern is identified when:
- The previous candle is bearish (`close < open `).
- The current candle is bullish (`close > open`).
- The low of the current candle is lower than the low of the previous candle (`low < low `).
- The current candle's close is higher than the previous candle's open (`close > open `).
When a bullish engulfing pattern is identified:
- Fibonacci levels are plotted from the low (0%) to the high (100%) of the bullish candle.
- A green dot is plotted below the bullish candle to indicate a buy signal.
2. Bearish Engulfing Pattern
A bearish engulfing pattern is identified when:
- The previous candle is bullish (`close > open `).
- The current candle is bearish (`close < open`).
- The high of the current candle is higher than the high of the previous candle (`high > high `).
- The current candle's close is lower than the previous candle's open (`close < open `).
When a bearish engulfing pattern is identified:
- Fibonacci levels are plotted from the high (0%) to the low (100%) of the bearish candle.
- A red dot is plotted above the bearish candle to indicate a sell signal.
3. Plotting Fibonacci Levels
For both bullish and bearish patterns, Fibonacci levels are plotted at:
- 0% (high for bullish, low for bearish)
- 50%
- 61.8%
- 79%
- 100% (low for bullish, high for bearish)
Smart Money Concept (SMC) Explanation
Bearish Signal
In the context of Smart Money Concepts (SMC), a bearish engulfing pattern can indicate:
- **Buy Side Liquidity Grab**: The high of the current bearish candle goes above the high of the previous bullish candle, potentially grabbing buy-side liquidity (stop losses of short positions or buy stops).
- **Break of Structure (BoS)**: The close of the bearish candle below the open of the previous bullish candle indicates a shift in market structure.
After identifying this bearish engulfing pattern, a smart money trader might:
1. Wait for the market to retrace 50% of the bearish candle.
2. Enter a sell trade around the 50% retracement level, anticipating a continuation of the downward move.
#### Bullish Signal
Similarly, a bullish engulfing pattern can indicate:
- **Sell Side Liquidity Grab**: The low of the current bullish candle goes below the low of the previous bearish candle, potentially grabbing sell-side liquidity (stop losses of long positions or sell stops).
- **Break of Structure (BoS)**: The close of the bullish candle above the open of the previous bearish candle indicates a shift in market structure.
After identifying this bullish engulfing pattern, a smart money trader might:
1. Wait for the market to retrace 50% of the bullish candle.
2. Enter a buy trade around the 50% retracement level, anticipating a continuation of the upward move.
The indicator helps traders identify key engulfing patterns that align with smart money concepts of liquidity grabs and breaks of structure. By plotting Fibonacci levels, it visually aids traders in waiting for optimal retracement levels (50%) to enter trades in the direction of the anticipated move. This approach leverages the idea that significant market participants often seek liquidity and cause structural shifts, providing entry opportunities for informed traders.
Liquidity-Finder ICT / SMCIn the context of ICT and the Smart Money Concept, liquidity is likely viewed as a crucial factor for determining the strength and sustainability of a market move. Smart Money is often associated with large institutional traders who have the ability to influence liquidity.
Liquidity Sweep:
A liquidity sweep in this context might involve Smart Money intentionally executing trades across various price levels to assess market depth and liquidity. This information can be used to identify potential areas of interest for Smart Money to initiate or exit positions without causing significant price disruptions.
Stop Hunt:
Stop hunting is a concept that Smart Money traders may employ to deliberately trigger stop orders in the market. By doing so, they can create temporary price movements that allow them to accumulate or liquidate positions at more favorable prices before the market reacts.
Smart Money Concept (SMC):
The Smart Money Concept revolves around the idea that large institutional traders (Smart Money) have superior information and resources compared to retail traders. Understanding the behavior of Smart Money, as taught in ICT and SMC, involves analyzing market dynamics, order flow, and liquidity to make more informed trading decisions.
Liquidating:
Liquidating refers to the process of selling or closing out existing positions. In the context of Smart Money, the term could imply that institutional traders are actively managing their positions, either taking profits or cutting losses strategically based on their analysis of market conditions.
The Indicator
The Indicator show open liquidity as solid lines and liquidates liquidity as dashed lines
Is able to send alerts for liquidity level was liquidated, liquidity level was dipped or the next close is on the other side
ATR VisualizerAdvance Your Market Analysis with the True Range Indicator
The True Range Indicator is a sophisticated screener meticulously developed to bolster your trading execution by presenting an exceptional understanding of the market direction. The centerpiece of this instrument is a distinctive candle configuration depicting the Average True Range (ATR) and the Bear/Bull range. However, it traverses beyond the conventional channels to offer specific market settings to boost your trading decisions.
User-Defined Settings
Broadly, the indicator offers five dynamic settings:
Bear/Bull Range
The Bear/Bull Range outlines the ATR for each candle type - bearish and bullish - and then smartly opts for the pertinent one based on the prevalent market circumstances. This feature aids in comparing the range of bullish and bearish candlesticks, which deepens your understanding of the price action and volatility.
Bearish Range
The Bearish Range isolates and computes the ATR for bearish candles solely. Utilizing this option spots the bear-dominated periods and provides insights about potential market reversals or downward continuations.
Bullish Range
Opposite to the Bearish Range, the Bullish Range setting tabulates the ATR exclusively for bullish candles. It assists in tracking the periods when bulls control, enlightening traders about the possibility of upward continuations or trend reversals.
Average Range
The Average Range provides an unbiased measure of range without prioritizing either bull or bear trends. This model is ideal for traders looking for a holistic interpretation of market behavior, regardless of direction.
Cumulative Average Range
Equally significant is the Cumulative Average Range which calculates the aggregate moving average of the true ranges for an expressed period. This setting is extremely valuable when evaluating the long-term volatility and spotting potential breakouts.
Dual Candle Configuration
Going a step ahead, the True Range Indicator uniquely offers the possibility to incorporate more than one candle estimate on your screen. This ensures simultaneous analysis of multiple market dynamics, thereby enhancing your trading precision multifold.
Concluding Thoughts
In essence, the True Range Indicator is an indispensable companion for traders looking to not only leverage market volatility but also make educated predictions. Equipped with an array of insightful market settings and the ability to display dual candle estimates on-screen, you can customize the functionality to suit your unique trading style and magnify your market performance dramatically.
OSPL Volume [Community Edition]NSE:BANKNIFTY1!
This indicator is based on the concepts popularized by @OptionsScalper123 "Siva" of OiPulse. His ideology Is that large moves come after high volume candles. For Nifty, high volume is considered to be a candle above 125k volume and for BankNifty it’s 50k.
This indicator allows you to cut the noise and focus only on the high volume candle. It shows high volume candle in a brighter shade and lower volume candles in a less visible shade.
You can set the minimum volume threshold limit for Nifty and BankNifty. The indicator smartly recognizes which index you are using it in and uses the respective threshold volume limit.
All colors are customizable.
Thanks for Siva for all the ideas and wonderful products he has given to the community
Thanks to all the wonderful Pinescipters for developing awesome indicators and keeping the source open.
The source code of this indicator is just a few lines. Hope you can use it in your projects and learn something from this just how I learned from other scripts.
Any changes or updates needed in this indicator, please suggest. I was thinking some kind of alerts can be added when volume crosses the threshold. Let me know.
Boost/like this indicator and comment if you find this useful. Cheers and happy trading!!!
Price alertThis indicator is an indicator for setting alerts.

MA Cross With Buy and SellThe Enhanced MA Cross indicator helps traders identify changes in market trends by tracking two moving averages: one short-term and one long-term. When the short-term average crosses above the long-term one, it suggests that momentum is shifting upward, often signaling a buying opportunity. Conversely, when the short-term average drops below the long-term, it may indicate that selling pressure is increasing, signaling a possible exit or short position.
This indicator is particularly useful in trending markets—places where prices are clearly moving up or down—like during strong moves in stocks, crypto, forex, or commodities. It gives you visual buy and sell markers right on the chart, and you can even enable alerts so you don't miss key moments.
However, it's not a great tool for sideways or ranging markets, where prices bounce around without direction. In those situations, the crossover signals can become noisy and less reliable.
Overall, it's a simple, beginner-friendly tool for spotting trend shifts and making more confident trade entries and exits. If needed, we can make it even smarter by combining it with other indicators to filter out bad signals.

Script Summary: BARTRADINGPREDV4
This Pine Script indicator is a comprehensive trading tool that overlays on your TradingView chart. It combines moving averages, regression channels, volume analysis, RSI filtering, and pattern recognition to assist in making trading decisions. It also provides a forward-looking projection to help anticipate future price movement.
Key Features & Logic
1. Moving Averages
HMA (High Moving Average): Simple moving average of the high price over a user-defined lookback period.
LMA (Low Moving Average): Simple moving average of the low price over the same period.
HLMA (High-Low Moving Average): The average of HMA and LMA, providing a midline reference.
2. RSI Filtering
Optionally enables a Relative Strength Index (RSI) filter to help avoid trades when the market is not trending strongly.
Only allows buy signals if RSI is above 50, and sell signals if RSI is below 50 (if enabled).
3. Signal Generation
BUY Signal: Triggered when HL2 (average of OHLC) crosses over LMA and (optionally) RSI > 50.
SELL Signal: Triggered when HL2 crosses under HMA and (optionally) RSI < 50.
XSB (Extra Strong Buy): HL2 crosses over HMA, is above HLMA, up volume is greater than down volume, and (optionally) RSI > 50.
XBS (Extra Strong Sell): HL2 crosses under LMA, is below HLMA, down volume is greater than up volume, and (optionally) RSI < 50.
Enable/Disable XSB/XBS: You can turn these signals on or off via script inputs.
4. Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) Levels
TP and SL are dynamically calculated based on the difference between HMA and LMA, providing contextually relevant exit levels.
5. Regression Channel and Prediction
Linear Regression Line: Plots a regression line over the lookback period to show the underlying trend.
ATR Channel: Adds an upper and lower channel around the regression line using ATR (Average True Range) for a realistic prediction envelope.
Forward Projection: Projects the regression line forward by a user-defined number of bars, visually showing where the trend could extend if current momentum persists.
6. Pattern Recognition
Higher Highs/Lows and Lower Highs/Lows: Marks bars where new higher highs/lows or lower highs/lows are set, helping you spot trend continuation or reversal points.
7. Status Table
A table shows the current price’s relationship to HMA, HLMA, and LMA, color-coded for quick visual interpretation.
User Instructions
Inputs
Number of Lookback Bars: Sets the period for all moving averages and regression calculations.
Prediction Length: (Legacy; not used in current logic.)

How to Use
Add the script to your TradingView chart.
Adjust inputs to suit your asset and timeframe.
Interpret signals:
BUY (B) and SELL (S): Appear as green/red labels below/above bars.
XSB (blue) and XBS (orange): Indicate extra strong buy/sell conditions.
HH/HL (green triangles): New higher highs/lows.
LH/LL (red triangles): New lower highs/lows.
Watch the regression channel: The yellow regression line shows the trend; the shaded band indicates expected volatility.
Check the projection: The dashed magenta line projects the regression trend forward, giving a visual target for price continuation.
Use the table: Quickly see if price is above or below each moving average.
Interpreting the Prediction Aspects
Regression Line & Channel
Regression Line (Yellow): Represents the best-fit line of price over the lookback period, showing overall trend direction.
ATR Channel: The upper and lower bands (yellow, semi-transparent) account for typical volatility, suggesting a range where price is likely to stay if the trend continues.
Forward Projection
Dashed Magenta Line: Projects the regression line forward by the specified number of bars, using the current slope. This is a trend continuation forecast—not a guarantee, but a statistically reasonable path if current conditions persist.
How to use: If price is respecting the regression trend and within the channel, the projection provides a visual target for where price might go in the near future.
TP/SL Levels
TP (Take Profit): Suggests a price target above the current HL2, based on recent volatility.
SL (Stop Loss): Suggests a protective stop below HL2.
Best Practices & Warnings
No indicator is perfect! Always combine signals with your own analysis and risk management.
Regression projection is not a crystal ball: It simply extends the current trend, which can and will change, especially after big news or at support/resistance.
Use on liquid, trending assets for best results.
Adjust lookback and ATR settings for your market and timeframe.
Summary Table Example
Price vs HMA vs HLMA vs LMA
43000 +100 +50 -20
Green: Price is above average (bullish).
Red: Price is below average (bearish).
Yellow: Price is very close to the average (neutral).
Final Notes
This script is designed to be a multi-tool for trend trading and prediction, combining classic and modern techniques. The forward projection helps visualize possible future price action, while signals and overlays keep you informed of trend shifts and trade opportunities.

SMC BOS Strategy for XAUUSDThis is a custom-built TradingView strategy that uses Smart Money Concept (SMC) logic to identify high-probability trend continuation and reversal entries based on Break of Structure (BOS) on XAUUSD. It is designed for traders looking to test institutional-style structure breaks with dynamic entry and risk-managed exits.
The strategy detects BOS using swing highs and lows, then enters trades based on price momentum (bullish or bearish candle confirmation). Each trade is automatically managed using a fixed stop loss in pips and a customizable risk-to-reward (RR) ratio. The goal is to backtest how BOS alone can drive clean directional entries, simulating Smart Money precision without repainting or false signals.
🔑 Key Features:
BOS-Based Entry Logic: Enters trades only after a valid break of structure (new higher high or lower low), signaling continuation from a Smart Money shift.
Momentum Filtered Entry: Requires candle confirmation to validate direction (e.g., bullish close after bullish BOS).
Full Backtest Engine: Built using strategy() functions, allowing you to test SL/TP performance and adjust position sizing.
Custom Risk Control: Adjust Stop Loss (in pips) and Target Profit using a flexible RR ratio (e.g. 1:2 or 1:3 setups).
Works Across Timeframes: Optimized for 15m, 1H, and 4H on XAUUSD, but works on any asset that respects structure.
⚙️ Settings:
Swing Sensitivity – Controls how strict pivot highs/lows are
Minimum Bar Spacing – Prevents overtrading after recent BOS
Stop Loss (in pips) – Fixed distance from entry
Risk/Reward Ratio – Multiplies SL for dynamic take-profit
Trade Direction – Supports both long and short with momentum
📊 How It Works:
Detects new structure break (BOS)
Confirms momentum with candle direction (close > open for long, close < open for short)
Triggers entry and sets TP/SL automatically
Logs results in the Strategy Tester for full backtest evaluation
📌 Optimized For:
XAUUSD (Gold)
Smart Money / SMC / ICT traders
Trend continuation + reversal structures
Backtest-focused strategy building
Institutional-level analysis
📎 Release Notes:
v1.0 – Initial release of BOS-only SMC strategy with full entry/exit simulation and strategy tester support.

This strategy is built for educational and research purposes only. It is not a signal provider or financial advice. Always combine with your personal confirmation, confluence tools, and risk management.
SMC Structure Levels – BOS & CHoCH for XAUUSDThis is a custom-made TradingView indicator designed to visualize high-confidence market structure shifts based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC), focusing on Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) points. The tool is optimized for XAUUSD but works across all major forex, crypto, and index markets.
It identifies key pivot points and filters them using both price distance and bar spacing, helping traders focus only on meaningful structural changes — not noisy signals. This makes it ideal for traders looking to track institutional-style price behavior with clarity.
🔑 Key Features:
Clean BOS & CHoCH Labels: The indicator plots “BOS” above candles when a structural break occurs in the trend direction, and “CHoCH” below candles when early signs of a reversal appear.
Spaced Signals: Only plots structure shifts that meet both time and price distance filters, preventing clutter and overplotting on the chart.
Swing-Based Logic: Built on pivot high/low analysis with adjustable sensitivity, ensuring flexible structure detection on any timeframe.
Fully Customizable: Modify:
Swing Sensitivity (number of bars before/after pivot)
Minimum bar spacing between BOS/CHoCH signals
Minimum price movement (in pips) between labels
Toggle BOS or CHoCH visibility individually
No Repainting: Once confirmed, signals remain fixed on the chart for historical review.
Zero Clutter: Unlike typical SMC tools that flood the chart, this indicator prioritizes clarity and signal quality.
🧠 What is BOS & CHoCH?
Break of Structure (BOS): Indicates continuation of the current market trend.
Change of Character (CHoCH): Suggests a potential early trend reversal or shift in momentum.
These tools are often used by Smart Money traders to mark significant turning points and trend confirmations.
⚙️ Use Cases:
Structural tracking in Smart Money Concepts (SMC)
Identifying trend continuation or early reversal
XAUUSD (Gold) swing and intraday analysis
Support for Order Blocks, Liquidity Grabs, and FVG confluence
Backtesting market structure break behavior
📌 Best Pairs:

Multi-Timeframe SMTSummery
The Multi-Timeframe SMT indicator is designed to identify and visualize Higher Timeframe (HTF) data on a Lower Timeframe (LTF) chart, allowing traders to see the broader market context without changing their current chart's resolution. It accurately draws pivots and SMT divergences from higher timeframes on the corresponding candles of your current lower timeframe chart.
Its core features include:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Configure and monitor pivots on up to four independent timeframes, from intraday to monthly.
Customizable Pivot Detection: Define the strength of pivots by adjusting the number of bars to the left and right.
SMT Divergence: Automatically identifies bullish and bearish SMT divergences by comparing the price action of the main chart symbol with a chosen correlated asset.
Early SMT Detection: A unique feature that monitors a lower "detection timeframe" to provide early warnings of potential SMT setups before they're confirmed on the main timeframe. Note that this early detection is only shown on timeframes equal to or lower than the "Detection timeframe" you have set.
Visual Cues & Alerts: Clear on-chart labels, lines, and fully customizable alerts notify you of confirmed pivots and SMT divergences, ensuring you don't miss key opportunities.
Important Nuance Regarding Pivot Label Display
Due to a self-imposed limit within this script's drawing management logic, the indicator might quickly reach its drawing capacity if you enable pivot crosses for multiple timeframes simultaneously. When this internal drawing limit is exceeded, the script is designed to automatically remove the oldest drawings to make space for new ones.
Therefore, to ensure optimal performance and visibility of the most recent and relevant pivots, it's highly recommended to only enable the "Show Pivot Crosses" option for one timeframe at a time. If you wish to view pivots for a different timeframe, simply disable the pivot crosses for the currently active timeframe and then enable them for your desired one. This approach prevents the rapid cycling and disappearance of pivot labels, providing a clearer and more stable visual experience.
In-Depth Explanation of the Logic
This script is built on two primary concepts: pivot points and Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergence. It systematically collects historical data on multiple timeframes, identifies pivots, and then compares them between two assets to find divergences.
Pivot Point Identification
A pivot is a turning point in the market. A pivot high is a candle that has a higher high than the candles to its immediate left and right. Conversely, a pivot low is a candle with a lower low than its neighbors.
How it Works in the Script:
The script tracks the highest high and lowest low for each period of the selected timeframe (e.g., for each 4-hour candle). When a new high-timeframe candle closes, it stores that high/low value and its bar index in an array. The checkForPivot() function then checks if a recently stored high or low qualifies as a pivot.
Key Inputs:
Left Strength (leftBars1): The number of candles to the left that must have a lower high (for a pivot high) or higher low (for a pivot low).
Right Strength (rightBars1): The number of candles to the right that must meet the same criteria.
For example, with Left Strength and Right Strength both set to 3, a pivot high is only confirmed when its high is greater than the highs of the 3 previous high-timeframe candles and the 3 subsequent high-timeframe candles. Increasing these values will identify more significant, longer-term pivots.
Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence
SMT Divergence is a concept popularized by The Inner Circle Trader (ICT). It occurs when two closely correlated assets fail to move in sync. For instance, if Asset A makes a higher high but Asset B fails to do so and instead makes a lower high, this creates a bearish SMT divergence. It suggests that the "smart money" may not be supporting the move in Asset A, signaling a potential reversal.
Bearish SMT: Main asset makes a higher high, while the correlated asset makes a lower high. This is a potential sell signal.
Bullish SMT: Main asset makes a lower low, while the correlated asset makes a higher low. This is a potential buy signal.
How it Works in the Script:
Data Request: For each timeframe, the script uses the request.security() function to fetch the high and low data for both the main chart symbol (syminfo.tickerid) and the chosen Comparison Asset.
Pivot Comparison: When a new pivot is confirmed on the main asset, the script checks if a corresponding pivot also formed on the comparison asset at the same time.
Divergence Check: It then compares the direction of the pivots. For a bearish SMT, it checks if the main asset's new pivot high is higher than its previous pivot high, while the comparison asset's new pivot high is lower than its previous one. The logic is reversed for bullish SMT.
Visualization: If a divergence is found, the script draws a red (bearish) or green (bullish) line connecting the two pivots on your chart and places an "SMT" label.
Early SMT Detection
This is a proactive feature designed to give you a heads-up. Waiting for a 4-hour or daily pivot to form can take a long time. The early detection system looks for SMT divergences on a much smaller, user-defined Detection timeframe (e.g., 15-minute).
How it Works in the Script:
Awaiting Setup: After a primary pivot (Pivot A) is formed on the main timeframe (e.g., a Daily pivot high), the script begins monitoring.
Intraday Monitoring: It then watches the Detection timeframe (e.g., 15-minute) for smaller intraday pivots.
Potential Divergence: It looks for an intraday pivot that forms a divergence against the primary Pivot A.
Watchline & Alert: When this "potential" divergence occurs, the script draws a dashed white line and triggers a "Potential SMT" alert. This isn't a confirmed SMT on the main timeframe yet, but it's a powerful early warning that one may be forming.
Drawing & Object Management
To keep the chart clean and prevent performance issues, the script manages its drawings (lines and labels) efficiently. It stores them in arrays and uses a drawing limit to automatically delete the oldest drawings as new ones are created, ensuring your TradingView remains responsive.
How to Use the Indicator
Configuration
Enable Timeframes: Use the checkboxes (Enable Timeframe 1, Enable Timeframe 2, etc.) to activate the timeframes you want to monitor. It's often best to start with one or two to keep the chart clean.
Select Timeframes: Choose the higher timeframes you want to analyze (e.g., 240 for 4-hour, D for Daily, W for Weekly).
Set Pivot Strength: The default of 3 for Left/Right strength is a good starting point. Increase it to find more significant market structure points or decrease it for more frequent, shorter-term pivots.
Configure SMT:
Check Enable SMT for the timeframes where you want to detect divergence.
Enter a Comparison Asset . This is crucial. Ensure the assets are correlated.
To use the early warning system, check Enable early SMT detection and select an appropriate Detection timeframe (e.g., 15 or 60 minutes for a Daily analysis).
Ultimate Market Structure [Alpha Extract]Ultimate Market Structure
A comprehensive market structure analysis tool that combines advanced swing point detection, imbalance zone identification, and intelligent break analysis to identify high-probability trading opportunities.Utilizing a sophisticated trend scoring system, this indicator classifies market conditions and provides clear signals for structure breaks, directional changes, and fair value gap detection with institutional-grade precision.
🔶 Advanced Swing Point Detection
Identifies pivot highs and lows using configurable lookback periods with optional close-based analysis for cleaner signals. The system automatically labels swing points as Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Higher Lows (HL), and Lower Lows (LL) while providing advanced classifications including "rising_high", "falling_high", "rising_low", "falling_low", "peak_high", and "valley_low" for nuanced market analysis.
swingHighPrice = useClosesForStructure ? ta.pivothigh(close, swingLength, swingLength) : ta.pivothigh(high, swingLength, swingLength)
swingLowPrice = useClosesForStructure ? ta.pivotlow(close, swingLength, swingLength) : ta.pivotlow(low, swingLength, swingLength)
classification = classifyStructurePoint(structureHighPrice, upperStructure, true)
significance = calculateSignificance(structureHighPrice, upperStructure, true)
🔶 Significance Scoring System
Each structure point receives a significance level on a 1-5 scale based on its distance from previous points, helping prioritize the most important levels. This intelligent scoring system ensures traders focus on the most meaningful structure breaks while filtering out minor noise.
🔶 Comprehensive Trend Analysis
Calculates momentum, strength, direction, and confidence levels using volatility-normalized price changes and multi-timeframe correlation. The system provides real-time trend state tracking with bullish (+1), bearish (-1), or neutral (0) direction assessment and 0-100 confidence scoring.
// Calculate trend momentum using rate of change and volatility
calculateTrendMomentum(lookback) =>
priceChange = (close - close ) / close * 100
avgVolatility = ta.atr(lookback) / close * 100
momentum = priceChange / (avgVolatility + 0.0001)
momentum
// Calculate trend strength using multiple timeframe correlation
calculateTrendStrength(shortPeriod, longPeriod) =>
shortMA = ta.sma(close, shortPeriod)
longMA = ta.sma(close, longPeriod)
separation = math.abs(shortMA - longMA) / longMA * 100
strength = separation * slopeAlignment
❓How It Works
🔶 Imbalance Zone Detection
Identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) between consecutive candles where price gaps create unfilled areas. These zones are displayed as semi-transparent boxes with optional center line mitigation tracking, highlighting potential support and resistance levels where institutional players often react.
// Detect Fair Value Gaps
detectPriceImbalance() =>
currentHigh = high
currentLow = low
refHigh = high
refLow = low
if currentOpen > currentClose
if currentHigh - refLow < 0
upperBound = currentClose - (currentClose - refLow)
lowerBound = currentClose - (currentClose - currentHigh)
centerPoint = (upperBound + lowerBound) / 2
newZone = ImbalanceZone.new(
zoneBox = box.new(bar_index, upperBound, rightEdge, lowerBound,
bgcolor=bullishImbalanceColor, border_color=hiddenColor)
)
🔶 Structure Break Analysis
Determines Break of Structure (BOS) for trend continuation and Directional Change (DC) for trend reversals with advanced classification as "continuation", "reversal", or "neutral". The system compares pre-trend and post-trend states for each break, providing comprehensive trend change momentum analysis.
🔶 Intelligent Zone Management
Features partial mitigation tracking when price enters but doesn't fully fill zones, with automatic zone boundary adjustment during partial fills. Smart array management keeps only recent structure points for optimal performance while preventing duplicate signals from the same level.
🔶 Liquidity Zone Detection
Automatically identifies potential liquidity zones at key structure points for institutional trading analysis. The system tracks broken structure points and provides adaptive zone extension with configurable time-based limits for imbalance areas.
🔶 Visual Structure Mapping
Provides clear visual indicators including swing labels with color-coded significance levels, dashed lines connecting break points with BOS/DC labels, and break signals for continuation and reversal patterns. The adaptive zones feature smart management with automatic mitigation tracking.
🔶 Market Structure Interpretation
HH/HL patterns indicate bullish market structure with trend continuation likelihood, while LH/LL patterns signal bearish structure with downtrend continuation expected. BOS signals represent structure breaks in trend direction for continuation opportunities, while DC signals warn of potential reversals.
🔶 Performance Optimization
Automatic cleanup of old structure points (keeps last 8 points), recent break tracking (keeps last 5 break events), and efficient array management ensure smooth performance across all timeframes and market conditions.

Supply/Demand Market Structure (SMA Multi-Timeframe)Supply/Demand Based Market Structure
Structure + Order Blocks from Synthetic SMA Candles
Overview:
The SMA Supply/Demand Market Structure indicator combines market structure analysis with supply/demand logic, powered by SMA-based synthetic candles . Instead of relying on raw candle data, this tool generates smoothed higher-timeframe candles using simple moving averages to identify more stable zones and cleaner structure shifts.
It detects bullish and bearish breaks of structure (BoS) , highlights swing points like HH, HL, LH, LL , and plots institutional-style supply and demand zones formed from aggressive rallies or drops. The result is a precise and noise-filtered view of market intent, perfect for trend-following or smart money strategies.
How It Works:
- Synthetic candles are created using SMA of OHLC values on your selected timeframe (HTF).
- A bullish break occurs when price closes above the high of the last bearish synthetic candle.
- A bearish break occurs when price closes below the low of the last bullish synthetic candle.
- Upon break confirmation:
- A demand zone is drawn using the last bearish candle.
- A supply zone is drawn using the last bullish candle.
- Each zone is extended forward for a user-defined number of bars and optionally deleted upon mitigation.
- Zigzag-based internal structure connects valid swing points and classifies them as HH, HL, LH, LL , including Liquidity Sweeps (LS) .
- BoS levels are highlighted with lines that automatically reset when new structure forms.
Key Features:
- Synthetic SMA Candles : Smooth and reliable structure from average-based HTF candles
- Break Modes : Choose between raw HTF closes or SMA closes for break logic
- Custom Timeframe Selection : Analyze structure across any HTF you choose
- Dynamic Supply/Demand Zones : Auto-plot boxes from valid rallies/drops
- Mitigation Detection : Optionally fade or delete zones when price trades through
- Zigzag Structure Mapping : Automatically connect structural highs/lows
- BoS Detection : Real-time breakout of swing points with visual confirmation
- Smart Labels : Marks HH, HL, LH, LL, and LS directly on the chart
- Multi-timeframe Alert System : Notify for all structural changes, BoS, and new zones
How to Use:
- Set your desired HTF and SMA Length for synthetic candle smoothing.
- Use SMA=1 for raw candles
- Select a Break Mode :
- Raw Close : Uses standard HTF close values
- SMA Close : Uses smoothed closes from SMA
- Watch for bullish or bearish breaks — zones are plotted when price confirms breakout structure.
- Use demand zones as long entry areas and supply zones as short setups on retests.
- Rely on internal shifts and zigzag swings to monitor structure continuity.
- Enable alerts for swing formations, BoS, and liquidity sweeps to trade hands-free.
Recommended Strategies:
- Smart Money & ICT Models : Use synthetic demand/supply + BoS for mitigation or continuation plays
- Swing Trading : Align with higher timeframe structure and use zones for entry triggers
- Trend Trading : Confirm structure alignment and wait for pullbacks into zones
- Reversal Entries : Trade structure breaks when zones fail and a BoS confirms the shift
Customization Options:
- Timeframe input for custom HTF control
- SMA Length to adjust candle smoothing
- Zone Style : Control zone color, transparency, and duration
- Structure Display : Toggle swing labels and zigzag visuals
- Alert Mode : Choose between LTF, MTF, or HTF alerts
Summary:
SMA Supply/Demand Market Structure provides a clean, flexible view of price structure and institutional intent by fusing market structure with SMA-based synthetic candles. It’s ideal for anyone seeking reduced noise, visually guided entries, and rule-based trading based on structural shifts and real-time demand/supply dynamics.
