ICT Index Futures Session LinesICT Index Futures Session Lines
Description:
The script is based on one of ICT's concepts on trading Index Futures. The script lays out the daily range from an intraday basis.
Range:
00:00 - New York Midnight
08:30 – New York Open (News events come out)
12:00/13:00 - New York Lunch (No trade time period)
13:30 - (Algorithm)
16:30 - Close
* The open, high and low lines are plotted from 00:00 to 08:30
How To Use:
You will need to check the daily bias. Prior to 8:30 you are to look for previous swing points where liquidity may exist. During the open you want to see if a high or low is taken out, and then wait for an energetic break/displacement for a potential FVG/imbalance retracement entry.
Strategy is for LTF (1 to 15m)
Default time zone is set to America/New_York (UTC New York), so lines will be plotted correctly regardless of user’s local UTC chart setting.

ICT Fair Value Gap [LM]Hello traders,
I would like to present you ICT Fair Value Gap script. The idea is the same as in my other script to look form imbalances. I have improved the previous script from teaching of ICT and created this script to train the eye to see those gaps. Shrinking option also shows if the gap has been already filled and also in case gap is filled you can get alert in case you will set it up .
The script has two settings:
general settings - definition of volatility condition for middle candle
box settings - setting for boxes, box colors, shrinking
I hope you enjoy it,
Lukas
ICT opening price lineShows you the opening price of a certain time of day. I will show as line starting from the time selected and ending a few bars into the future. Available times are the ones ICT said are relevant for framing a premium and discount using opening prices: 00:00, 8:30 and 13:30. To show all 3 you have to add the indicator 3 times.
The script offers some customization on how the line should look line and if you want a label telling the time of it after the line.
ICT Balance Price Range [UAlgo]The "ICT Balance Price Range " indicator identifies and visualizes potential balance price ranges (BPRs) on a price chart. These ranges are indicative of periods where the market exhibits balance between bullish and bearish forces, often preceding significant price movements.
🔶 What is Balanced Price Range (BPR) ?
Balanced Price Range is a concept based on Fair Value Gap. Balanced price range (BPR) is the area on price chart where two opposite fair value gaps overlap.
When price approaches the Balanced Price Range (BPR), we assume that the price will react quickly and strongly here. This is because its the combination of two fair value gaps and being a good point of interest for smart money traders.
🔶 Key Features:
Bars to Consider: Determines the number of bars to evaluate for BPR conditions.
Threshold for BPR: Sets the minimum range required for a valid BPR to be identified.
Remove Old BPR: Option to automatically remove invalidated BPRs from the chart.
Bearish/Bullish Box Color: Customizable colors for visual representation of bearish and bullish BPRs.

ICT Silver Bullet Vertical Lines by Fahmi EshaqThis indicator is designed for users interested in backtesting the Silver Bullet strategy. It eliminates the need for manual drawing of vertical lines by automatically highlighting specific times known as ICT Silver Bullet times. These times correspond to periods when smart money are active the market. The indicator marks these Silver Bullet times with vertical lines, making them easily identifiable. The specified Silver Bullet times are 3AM-4AM, 10AM-11AM, and 2PM-3PM New York time. Additionally, a vertical line is added at 12:00AM to demarcate the start of each day, as days begin at midnight.
ICT Hydra MacrosThis indicator allows you to set a colored box at each time frame specified as Macro.
The purpose of this customizable color box is to be able to identify the start and end of the desired time frame, as well as the highest and lowest price during that time frame.
It also allows to place the schedule in numbers inside the box in order to quickly identify the painted time frame.
The indicator has up to 26 customizable boxes both in time frame and color. This allows to have different time frames that each Trader considers convenient for his strategy.
Settings:
General Settings:
Limit Days to Draw: Indicates the number of past days in which boxes will be drawn. Default value is 5 past days.
Timeframe Limit: Indicates the maximum time frame in which the boxes will be displayed. Default value is 5 minutes.
Timezone: Indicates the desired Timezone to calculate the schedules that will be configured later.
Macros Settings:
Show Macros Boxes: Enables or disables all boxes. It is enabled by default.
Display Text: Enables or disables all labels inside the boxes containing the time frame corresponding to the box. It is enabled by default.
Macros Transparency: Indicates the transparency percentage of the selected color for all boxes. By default it contains a value of 80% transparency.
Macro 1-26: Indicates the start time and end time, as well as the color of the individual box. Each Macro can be enabled or disabled individually. Note that the boxes of each Macro will be visible only if the "Show Macros Boxes" property is enabled. By default, there are specified certain Macros or time frames with a duration of 20 minutes, which are Manipulation or Expansion Macros that mentor Hydra has taught us based on the knowledge that ICT has provided for everyone.
The objective of this indicator is to provide a visual tool on the Macros or Time Frames in which the Trader can easily observe the desired schedule and which will automatically adjust according to the time and price on all 4 sides of the box.
ICT HTF Candles [Source Code] (fadi)Plotting a configurable higher timeframe on current chart's timeframe helps visualize price movement without changing timeframes. It also plots FVG and Volume Imbalance on the higher timeframe for easier visualization.
With ICT concepts, we usually wait for HTF break of structure and then find an entry on a lower timeframe. With this indicator, we can set it to the HTF and watch the develop of price action until the break of structure happens. We can then take an entry on the current timeframe.
Settings
HTF Higher timeframe to plot
Number of candles to display The number of higher timeframe candles to display to the right of current price action
Body/Border/Wick The candle colors for the body, border, and wick
Padding from current candles The distance from current timeframe's candles
Space between candles Increase / decrease the candle spacing
Candle width The size of the candles
Imbalance

ICT NWOG/NDOG [Source Code] (fadi)New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) and New Day Opening Gap (NDOG) are areas on the chart where price tend to react to and has the potential of moving from one gap to the next. These gaps can act as support and resistance zones where price can bounce of, or go through and retest. Areas of interest are the high, low, the Consequent Encroachment (C.E.), which is the middle between high and low of each gap.
Event Horizon is the 50% distance between two NWOGs and price tend to react to, and could act as Premium/ Discount between two NWOGs.
New Week Opening Gap (NWOG)
The difference between Friday close, and Sunday open. Consequent Encroachment (C.E.) is the area between two NWOGs.
Settings NWOG
- The Colors in the form of Current/Previous and line style for NWOG
- Background color to use for Current/Previous
- Number of NWOGs to use by the indicator (ICT recommends using minimum of 5)
- Extend Configuration:
-- Always Extend all NWOGs
-- Above and below only Shows the immediate two NWOGs that are above and below current price. These two NWOGs are recalculated as price moves
-- Any that is near current price Any NWOG that is near the current price, this can result in multiple NWOGs being displayed, with some overlapping
- Event Horizon only applicable when using the "Above and below only settings"
-- Show Date label and type of gap
New Day Opening Gap (NDOG)
The difference between Yesterday's close and Today's open.
Settings NDOG
- The Colors in the form of Current/Previous and line style for NDOG
- Background color to use for Current/Previous
- Number of NDOGs to use by the indicator, default is 1 but price tend to react to previous ones as well
- Extend Configuration:
-- Always Extend all NDOGs
-- Above and below only Shows the immediate two NDOGs that are above and below current price. These two NDOGs are recalculated as price moves
-- Any that is near current price Any NDOG that is near the current price, this can result in multiple NDOGs being displayed, with some overlapping
-- Show Date label and type of gap
Other Settings
Number of candles to use in calculation is used to calculate the size of the candles in order to derive the distance from current price. If current candle sizes is more important than over longer period of time then use 14 or near that number
Factor multiplier for distance test is the number above times X value. Lower timeframes require a higher number than a larger timeframe. If day trading, a value between 10 and 20 is probably best. If swing trading, a value between 5 and 10 is probably best.
Buffer How many candles beyond current price to extend the gaps by. this is helpful to provide cleaner view of the price action
ICT HTF FVGs (fadi)ICT HTF FVGs displays the higher timeframe FVGs on current chart. This allows the trader to easily visualize the higher timeframe FVGs without having to mark them manually and see when price reaches point of interest for possible reversals or reaction.
This indicator attempts to provide as much flexibility possible by being able to define the following:
Higher Timeframe Settings
Timeframe to monitor
Bullish FVG color for this timeframe
Bearish FVG color for this timeframe
Maximum number of FVGs to display for this timeframe
Distance from current bar. This prevents overcrowding of FVGs
Hide Lower Timeframes from current chart. If this option is turned off, 5m timeframe FVGs will be displayed on an hourly chart as an example.
Show Border for the FVGs. Border color is derived from the FVG color
Show Mitigated FVG on the chart. The labels are removed to prevent the labels from overlapping with the candles on the chart/
Show C.E. Draws a line at the middle point of the FVG. This is usually an area of interest.
Show Label Shows the label with label color, background color, and label size.
ICT Daily Bias Finder [DTCC]What is This?
The ICT Daily Bias Finder uses a method called "DTCC" to identify the London and New York session's bias, bullish or bearish. This indicator should only be relied on for 5 minute, and not other timeframes.
How do I use it?
Look at the previous days two boxes (labeled DTCC Bear/DTCC Bull), if both are bullish or both are bearish it is NOT recommended to rely on DTCC for that day. If the first one is bullish and second one is bearish, the DTCC for the next day says that London session will turn ABOVE midnight opening price, while New York will turn UNDER midnight opening price (longs in London, shorts in New York). If the second one is bearish and the first is bullish, the DTCC for the next day says that London session will turn UNDER midnight opening price, while New York will turn ABOVE midnight opening price (shorts in London, longs in New York)
Emoji guide to DTCC indicator:
🟢🟢: Don't trust DTCC for that day
🔴🔴: Don't trust DTCC for that day
🟢🔴: Longs in London above Midnight Opening Price, Shorts in New York under Midnight Opening Price
🔴🟢: Shorts in London under Midnight Opening Price, Longs in New York under Midnight Opening Price
Reminder: NEVER rely solely on DTCC, DTCC can be wrong and is not right 100% of times.
ICT - NY Session Open + Daily High/Low Markers [1m Chart]For ICT lovers, this marks the swing low, swing high of NY opening so you can scalp the open.
ICT Seek & Destroy Profile [TFO]The goal of this indicator is to anticipate potentially "choppy" New York trading sessions, based on what price does during the Asia and London trading sessions. Based on some user-defined success criteria, we can also track how successful these warnings are.
Many Inner Circle Trader (ICT) students have noted that choppy New York sessions are often preceded by erratic London sessions which take both the high and low of the Asian range.
When this criteria is true and warnings are enabled, a table will automatically populate with a custom warning message for the duration of the NY session, indicating to the user that it could be a choppy trading day.
We can measure and track the success rate of these warnings via the following success criteria:
- NY stays within London range
- NY exceeds London high and low
- NY closes within London range
- NY range is too small
The first three criteria should be self explanatory - the NY range either stays within the London high & low, exceeds them both, or closes within them.
The last criteria is a measure of the New York range compared to a user defined standard deviation of all historical ranges (for the number of sessions that the current chart can load). The default value of 1.5 would imply that a "successful" S&D day could be if the NY range (from high to low) was less than or equal to 1.5 standard deviations of all past ranges.
All these options can be toggled on/off as well, for those that only want to consider certain success criteria and not others. When any of the selected success criteria are true, that essentially indicates that the current session's warning was successful.
ICT Commitment of Traders° by toodegreesDescription:
The Commitment of Traders (COT) is a valuable raw data report released weekly by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). This report offers insights into the current long and short positions of three key market entities:
Commercial Traders ( usually represented in red )
Large Traders ( typically depicted in green )
Small Speculator Traders ( commonly shown in blue )
The concept of utilizing the COT data as a strategic trading tool was first introduced by Larry Williams, who emphasized the importance of monitoring Commercial Speculators – large corporate producers or consumers of commodities.
The Inner Circle Trader (ICT) prompts us to delve deeper into this data. While we can easily determine their Net Position (also referred to as the Main Program) by subtracting Commercial Short Positions from the Commercial Long Positions, this calculation doesn't reveal their ongoing Hedge Program .
Merely following the Main Program won't provide a trading edge. Aligning with the Hedge Program can be an invaluable weapon in your trading arsenal.
The Commercial Speculators' Hedge Program can be unveiled by examining the highest and lowest reading of their Net Position over a chosen time period and setting a new "zero line" between these extremes. This process generates a novel "COT Graph" providing a detailed understanding of the Commercial Speculators' current market activity.
When the Hedge Program, Seasonality, and Open Interest are cross-referenced with Institutional Orderflow, a trader can construct a very clear medium-to-long-term market narrative.
Features:
Access COT Data for the Commercial Speculators via Tradingview's reliable data source
Automate calculations and display the 3-month, 6-month, 12-month, 2-year, and 3-year Hedge Program
Define your own Custom Time Range for the Hedge Program
Display the Main Program and all Hedge Programs in an easy-to-understand table format
Additionally, by following the included instructions, you can augment your table with COT data from multiple markets. This extra information can help monitor correlated markets and develop a more robust market narrative:
ICT Time Windows by Scuba SteveJust an easy to use time based indicator that allows you to track ICT London Open Killzone, New York Open killzone, AM session Silver Bullet time window & PM Session Silver Bullet Time Window, and last but not least the Last Hour of trading which often has nice moves.
ICT SessionsThis script plots the timewindows of the ICT killzones (for forex) and trading session + makros below the chart. Individual components can be switched of to your liking
ICT MakrosThis script highlights the ICT trading makros and silverbullet timewindows with different background colors on your chart. The drawings are only visible on the timeframe 1min - 5min because they become useless above and i didnt code the logic for below 1min
ICT Session Opening FVG / Silver Bullet [MK]Students of ICT concepts will know that the first FVG found within particular session periods can identify an important price level for intraday traders.
"Find the first FVG at the start of the session and drag a box from it to the right"....ICT
The script finds the first FVG (either bull or bear) within the following periods:
London Killzone (0200 - 0500) EST
02:00 - 0259
03:00 - 0359
0400 - 0459
Dead Zone (05-00 - 0600) EST
05-00 - 0559
0600 - 0659
NY AM Killzone (0700 - 1100) EST
0700 - 0759
0830 - 0929
0929 - 0959
1000 - 1100 (Silver Bullet)
A chart higher timeframe can be chosen to detect the FVGs and they will be displayed on lower timeframe. Default is 5min for detection. I like to then following price reacting to 5mi FVGs on a 1 min chart.
FVG boxes can be extended to the end of the session, or to any time within the current days trading hours. Colors/Labels/ Session Periods can all be edited. A maximum timeframe for display is available and
timezone can be adjusted.
FVGs are only shown for the current days trading hours.
ICT Day/Week/Month Levels [MK]Displays Open, High, Low, Close and 50% levels for the Previous Day/Week/Month.
Also shows the Open for the Current Day/Week/Month
Also shows the Current New Week Opening Gap Midline (NWOG)
These levels are key to teachings by ICT as well as other trading strategies. There are lots of scripts available for this data, however this one plots the levels to the right of price on the chart to keep the chart as clean as possible. The line styles, colors and text can be customised. The offset to the right of the chart for the start of line and label offsets can also be adjusted.
Labels are abbreviated to PDH (previous day high), CMO (current month open), PW50% (previous week 50% from high to low) ..etc
ICT Killzone SessionIt is a useful tool for identifying the London and New York open and close sessions, as well as the Asian range on the chart.
The appearance of the "killzones" can be customized by selecting colors and transparencies for each session.
Boxes can also be displayed around each session and labels with additional information can be added.
This script is compatible with intraday charts and time multipliers up to 60 minutes. It was created by Jeaw and is based on the ideas of the ICT methodology.
This script can help traders avoid entering the market during high impact news events and periods of low liquidity.
By identifying these potentially volatile times, traders can better manage their risk and improve their overall trading strategy.
London Open Killzone : 07:00 - 10:00
New York Open Killzone : 12:00 - 15:00
Asian Range : 15:00-17:00
London Close Killzone : 00:00-06:00

ICT MTF FVG [MK]FVGs (Fair Value Gaps) are significant levels that may act as support or resistance to price. The script finds FVGs as per ICT trading system, then plots the full FVG to the right side of the chart. FVG boxes do not change size when they are semi-mitigated as its important to know where the original FVG midpoint lies. Plotting to the right side of price allows for a cleaner chart. The script is MTF and can display FVG boxes for the following timeframes. Chart, 5,10,15,30,1hr,4hr,8hr,12hr,D,W,M.
Below shows 1hr FVGs marked out. NOTE: this is not what the script does, this is for explanation only.
Below shows what the script will do. 1hr FVGs shown on 15min chart
ICT MTF Order Block Wicks [MK]Order Blocks are significant levels that may act as support or resistance to price. Often the wick area is where price may react. The script finds order blocks as per ICT trading system, then plots either the top or bottom wick area to the right side of price. Plotting to the right side of price allows for a cleaner chart. The script is MTF and can display order block boxes for the following timeframes. 5,10,15,30,1hr,4hr,8hr,12hr,D,W,M. Only order blocks of a higher timeframe than the current chart can be shown.
Below shows how order block wicks should be drawn on a 1hr chart NOTE: this is not what the indicator does, its only for explanation.
Below shows the same 1hr order blocks, but shown on a 15min chart NOTE: this is the function of this indicator.
ICT Implied Fair Value Gap (IFVG) [LuxAlgo]An Implied Fair Value Gap (IFVG) is a three candles imbalance formation conceptualized by ICT that is based on detecting a larger candle body & then measuring the average between the two adjacent candle shadows.
This indicator automatically detects this imbalance formation on your charts and can be extended by a user set number of bars.
The IFVG average can also be extended until a new respective IFVG is detected, serving as a support/resistance line.
Alerts for the detection of bullish/bearish IFVG's are also included in this script.
🔶 SETTINGS
Shadow Threshold %: Threshold percentage used to filter out IFVG's with low adjacent candles shadows.
IFVG Extension: Number of bars used to extend highlighted IFVG's areas.
Extend Averages: Extend IFVG's averages up to a new detected respective IFVG.
🔶 USAGE
Users of this indicator can primarily find it useful for trading imbalances just as they would for trading regular Fair Value Gaps or other imbalances, which aims to highlight a disparity between supply & demand.
For trading a bullish IFVG, users can find this imbalance as an area where price is likely to fill or act as an area of support.
In the same way, a user could trade bearish IFVGs by seeing it as a potential area to be filled or act as resistance within a downtrend.
Users can also extend the IFVG averages and use them as longer-term support/resistances levels. This can highlight the ability of detected IFVG to provide longer term significant support and resistance levels.
🔶 DETAILS
Various methods have been proposed for the detection of regular FVG's, and as such it would not be uncommon to see various methods for the implied version.
We propose the following identification rules for the algorithmic detection of IFVG's:
🔹 Bullish
Central candle body is larger than the body of the adjacent candles.
Current price low is higher than high price two bars ago.
Current candle lower shadow makes up more than p percent of its total candle range.
Candle upper shadow two bars ago makes up more than p percent of its total candle range.
The average of the current candle lower shadow is greater than the average of the candle upper shadow two bars ago.
where p is the user set threshold.
🔹 Bearish
Central candle body is larger than the body of the adjacent candles.
Current price high is higher than low price two bars ago.
Current candle upper shadow makes up more than p percent of its total candle range.
Candle lower shadow two bars ago makes up more than p percent of its total candle range.
The average of the candle lower shadow 2 bars ago is greater than the average of the current candle higher shadow.
where p is the user set threshold.
🔶 SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL
You can see our previously posted script that detects various imbalances as well as regular Fair Value Gaps which have very similar usability to Implied Fair Value Gaps here:
