Opening Range Gap + Std Dev [starclique]The ICT Opening Range Gap is a concept taught by Inner Circle Trader and is discussed in the videos: 'One Trading Setup For Life' and 2023 ICT Mentorship - Opening Range Gap Repricing Macro
ORGs, or Opening Range Gaps, are gaps that form only on the Regular Trading Hours chart.
The Regular Trading Hours gap occurs between 16:15 PM - 9:29 AM EST (UTC-4)
These times are considered overnight trading, so it is useful to filter the PA (price action) formed there.
The RTH option is only available for futures contracts and continuous futures from CME Group.
To change your chart to RTH, first things first, make sure you’re looking at a futures contract for an asset class, then on the bottom right of your chart, you’ll see ETH (by default) - Click on that, and change it to RTH.
Now your charts are filtering the price action that happened overnight.
To draw out your gap, use the Close of the 4:14 PM candle and the open of the 9:30 AM candle.
How is this concept useful?
Well, It can be used in many ways.

How To Use The ORG
One of the ways you can use the opening range gap is simply as support and resistance
If we extend out the ORG from the example above, we can see that there is a clean retest of the opening range gap high after breaking structure to the upside and showing acceptance outside of the gap after consolidating within it.
The ORG High (4:14 Candle Close in this case) was used as support.
We then see an expansion to the upside.
Another way to implement the ORG is by using it as a draw on liquidity (magnet for price)
In this example, if we looked to the left, there was a huge ORG to the downside, leaving a massive gap.
The market will want to rebalance that gap during the regular trading hours.
The market rallies higher, rejects, comes down to clear the current days ORG low, then closes.
That is one example of how you can combine liquidity & ICT market structure concepts with Opening Range Gaps to create a story in the charts.
Now let’s discuss standard deviations.
---
Standard Deviations
Standard Deviations are essentially projection levels for ranges / POIs (Point of Interests)
By this I mean, if you have a range, and you would like to see where it could potentially expand to, you’d place your fibonacci retracement tool on and high and low of the range, then use extension levels to find specific price points where price might reject from.
Since 0 and 1 are your Range High and Low respectively, your projection levels would be something like 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3, for the extension from your 1 Fib Level, and -0.5, -1, -1.5, and -2 for your 0 Fib level.
The -1 and 2 level produce a 1:1 projection of your range low and high, meaning, if you expect price to expand as much as it did from the range low to range high, then you can project a -1 and 2 on your Fib, and it would show you what ICT calls “symmetrical price”
Now, how are standard deviations relevant here?
Well, if you’ve been paying attention to ICT’s recent videos, you would’ve caught that he’s recently started using Standard Deviation levels on breakers.
So my brain got going while watching his video on ORGs, and I decided to place the fib on the ORG high and low and see what it’d produce.
The results were very interesting.
Using this same example, if we place our fib on the ORG High and Low, and add some projection levels, we can see that we rejected right at the -2 Standard Deviation Level.
---
You can see that I also marked out the EQ (Equilibrium, 50%, 0.5 of Fib) of the ORG. This is because we can use this level as a take profit level if we’re using an old ORG as our draw.
In days like these, where the gap formed was within a consolidation, and it continued to consolidate within the ORG zone that we extended, we can use the EQ in the same way we’d use an EQ for a range.
If it’s showing acceptance above the EQ, we are bullish, and expect the high of the ORG to be tapped, and vice versa.
---
Using The Indicator
Here’s where our indicator comes in play.
To avoid having to do all this work of zooming in and marking out the close and open of the respective ORG candles, we created the Opening Range Gap + Standard Deviations Indicator, with the help of our dedicated Star Clique coder, a1tmaniac.
With the ORG + STD DEV indicator, you will be able to view ORG’s and their projections on the ETH (Electronic Trading Hours) chart.

Buyside & Sellside Liquidity [LuxAlgo]The Buyside & Sellside Liquidity indicator aims to detect & highlight the first and arguably most important concept within the ICT trading methodology, Liquidity levels.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Liquidity Levels
Detection Length: Lookback period
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for a liquidity level detection
🔹 Liquidity Zones
Buyside Liquidity Zones: Enables display of the buyside liquidity zones.
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for the liquidity zone boundaries.
Color: Color option for buyside liquidity levels & zones.
Sellside Liquidity Zones: Enables display of the sellside liquidity zones.
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for the liquidity zone boundaries.

Label: Enables display of a label indicating liquidity voids.
🔹 Display Options
Mode: Controls the lookback length of detection and visualization, where Present assumes last 500 bars and Historical assumes all data available to the user
# Visible Levels: Controls the amount of the liquidity levels/zones to be visualized.
🔶 USAGE
Definitions of Liquidity refer to the availability of orders at specific price levels in the market, allowing transactions to occur smoothly.
In the context of Inner Circle Trader's teachings, liquidity mainly relates to stop losses or pending orders and liquidity level/pool, highlighting a concentration of buy or sell orders at specific price levels. Smart money traders, such as banks and other large institutions, often target these liquidity levels/pools to accumulate or distribute their positions.
There are two types of liquidity; Buyside liquidity and Sellside liquidity .
Buyside liquidity represents a level on the chart where short sellers will have their stops positioned, and Sellside liquidity represents a level on the chart where long-biased traders will place their stops.
These areas often act as support or resistance levels and can provide trading opportunities.
When the liquidity levels are breached at which many stop/limit orders are placed have been traded through, the script will create a zone aiming to provide additional insight to figure out the odds of the next price action.
Reversal: It’s common that the price may reverse course and head in the opposite direction, seeking liquidity at the opposite extreme.
Continuation: When the zone is also broken it is a sign for continuation price action.
It's worth noting that ICT concepts are specific to the methodology developed by Michael J. Huddleston and may not align with other trading approaches or strategies.
🔶 DETAILS
Liquidity voids are sudden changes in price when the price jumps from one level to another. Liquidity voids will appear as a single or a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction. These candles typically have large real bodies and very short wicks, suggesting very little disagreement between buyers and sellers. The peculiar thing about liquidity voids is that they almost always fill up.
🔶 ALERTS
When an alert is configured, the user will have the ability to be notified in case;
Liquidity level is detected/updated.
Liquidity level is breached.

Power Of 3 ICT 01 [TradingFinder] AMD ICT & SMC Accumulations🔵 Introduction
The ICT Power of 3 (PO3) strategy, developed by Michael J. Huddleston, known as the Inner Circle Trader, is a structured approach to analyzing daily market activity. This strategy divides the trading day into three distinct phases: Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution.
Each phase represents a unique market behavior influenced by institutional traders, offering a clear framework for retail traders to align their strategies with market movements.
Accumulation (19:00 - 01:00 EST) takes place during low-volatility hours, as institutional traders accumulate orders. Manipulation (01:00 - 07:00 EST) involves false breakouts and liquidity traps designed to mislead retail traders. Finally, Distribution (07:00 - 13:00 EST) represents the active phase where significant market movements occur as institutions distribute their positions in line with the broader trend.
This indicator is built upon the Power of 3 principles to provide traders with a practical and visual tool for identifying these key phases. By using clear color coding and precise time zones, the indicator highlights critical price levels, such as highs and lows, helping traders to better understand market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
Incorporating the ICT AMD setup into daily analysis enables traders to anticipate market behavior, spot high-probability trade setups, and gain deeper insights into institutional trading strategies. With its focus on time-based price action, this indicator simplifies complex market structures, offering an effective tool for traders of all levels.
🔵 How to Use
The ICT Power of 3 (PO3) indicator is designed to help traders analyze daily market movements by visually identifying the three key phases: Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution.
Here's how traders can effectively use the indicator :
🟣 Accumulation Phase (19:00 - 01:00 EST)
Purpose : Identify the range-bound activity where institutional players accumulate orders.
Trading Insight : Avoid placing trades during this phase, as price movements are typically limited. Instead, use this time to prepare for the potential direction of the market in the next phases.
🟣 Manipulation Phase (01:00 - 07:00 EST)
Purpose : Spot false breakouts and liquidity traps that mislead retail traders.
Trading Insight : Observe the market for price spikes beyond key support or resistance levels. These moves often reverse quickly, offering high-probability entry points in the opposite direction of the initial breakout.
🟣 Distribution Phase (07:00 - 13:00 EST)
Purpose : Detect the main price movement of the day, driven by institutional distribution.
Trading Insight : Enter trades in the direction of the trend established during this phase. Look for confirmations such as breakouts or strong directional moves that align with broader market sentiment
🔵 Settings
Show or Hide Phases :mDecide whether to display Accumulation, Manipulation, or Distribution.
Adjust the session times for each phase :
Accumulation: 1900-0100 EST

FVG 9:31–10:00 AM ETFVG 9:31–10:00 AM ET - Script Description
What This Script Does
This indicator finds **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)** that form during the first 29 minutes of the U.S. stock market (9:31 AM to 10:00 AM Eastern Time). A Fair Value Gap is a price imbalance where there's a gap between candles that often becomes an important support or resistance level.
Key Features:
- **Time Window**: Only looks for FVGs between 9:31-10:00 AM ET (most important opening period)
- **One Per Day**: Finds only the first FVG that forms in this time window each day
- **Visual Display**: Draws a purple box around the gap with a clear "FVG" label
- **Price Tracking**: Monitors when price comes back to test the gap level
- **Alert System**: Sends notifications when price returns to the FVG zone
How FVGs Are Detected:
- **Bullish FVG**: When there's a gap up (low of middle candle is above high of 3rd candle back)
- **Bearish FVG**: When there's a gap down (high of middle candle is below low of 3rd candle back)
The 9:31-10:00 AM window is chosen because this is when institutions and algorithms create their biggest price moves right after market open, making these gaps very reliable.
Customization Options

How to Use:
Setup
Chart Settings
1. Use 1-minute, 5-minute, or 15-minute charts (works best on these timeframes)
2. Apply to liquid markets like ES, NQ, major stocks, or forex pairs
3. Set the "Extend FVG Box" to your preference (start with 0 or 10)
What You'll See
- A purple box appears when an FVG forms during 9:31-10:00 AM
- Box shows the exact price levels of the gap
- "FVG" label appears on the box
- Only one FVG per day will be marked
Trading Strategies
Basic FVG Trading
1. **Wait for Formation**: Let the purple box appear during 9:31-10:00 AM
2. **Watch Price Movement**: See if price moves away from the gap
3. **Enter on Retest**: When price comes back to the purple box area, consider entering
4. **Trade Direction**:
- Bullish FVG = look for long opportunities when price retests
- Bearish FVG = look for short opportunities when price retests
Entry Methods
- **Bounce Play**: Enter when price touches the FVG box and bounces away
- **Break Play**: Enter if price strongly breaks through the FVG box
- **Rejection Play**: Enter opposite direction if price gets rejected at the FVG
Risk Management
Stop Losses
- Place stops just outside the FVG box (a few ticks beyond the gap)
- If trading a bounce, stop goes on opposite side of the gap
- If trading a break, stop goes back inside the gap
Position Sizing
- Start small until you understand how FVGs work in your market
- Bigger gaps = smaller position size (more risk)
- Smaller gaps = can use larger position size
Profit Targets
- Take profits at obvious levels like round numbers, previous highs/lows
- Consider taking half profits at 1:1 risk/reward ratio
- Let some position run if the move is strong
Best Practices
When It Works Best
- High-volume stocks and futures (ES, NQ work great)
- Normal market days without major news during the 9:31-10:00 window
- When there's clear institutional activity in the opening period
When to Be Careful
- Low-volume stocks or markets
- Major economic news releases during the time window
- Market holidays when volume is low
- Very choppy or sideways days
Alert Usage
- The script will alert you when price comes back to test the FVG
- Don't trade the alert blindly - always check the current market situation
- Use the alert as a heads-up to start watching the setup more closely
Tips for Success
- The earlier the FVG forms in the 9:31-10:00 window, often the more significant it is
- FVGs that form with high volume are usually more reliable
- Always consider the overall market direction - don't fight the main trend
- Practice on paper first to understand how FVGs behave in your chosen market

Contrarian 100 MAPairs nicely with Enhanced-Stock-Ticker-with-50MA-vs-200MA located here:
Description
The Contrarian 100 MA is a sophisticated Pine Script v6 indicator designed for traders seeking to identify key market structure shifts and trend reversals using a combination of a 100-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) envelope and Inner Circle Trader (ICT) Break of Structure (BoS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) logic. By overlaying a semi-transparent SMA-based shadow on the price chart and plotting bullish and bearish structure signals, this indicator helps traders visualize critical price levels and potential trend changes. It leverages higher timeframe (HTF) pivot points and dynamic logic to adapt to various chart timeframes, making it ideal for swing and contrarian trading strategies. Customizable colors, timeframes, and alert conditions enhance its versatility for manual and automated trading setups.

📒 Usage
How to Use the ICT 1st Presented Fair Value Gap in Trading
To apply the ICT 1st Presented Fair Value Gap (FVG), identify the first fair value gap of the day and extend it across the chart until 3:45 PM New York time.
You’ll often notice that some of the best trade setups form around this level. It tends to act as a key reference point for price action during the day—especially on trending days, where price frequently returns to this gap before continuing in its direction.
This level can also serve as an inverse fair value gap, offering opportunities in the opposite direction under the right conditions.
How to Disqualify the 1st Presented Fair Value Gap?
When the first fair value gap forms after 9:30 AM New York time, check the candles that came just before it.
If the candlestick that creates the FVG doesn’t break above or below the range of those previous candles, then it’s not a true inefficiency. In that case, it’s considered a disqualified 1st Presented Fair Value Gap—meaning it shouldn’t be used as a key reference level.
Refer to the example below to see what this looks like on the chart.
🚨 Alerts
This script provides alert options for all signals.
Bearish Signal
A bearish signal is triggered when the bearish 1st P.FVG is formed in interval 09:30 - 10:00.
Bullish Signal
A bullish signal is triggered when the bullish 1st P.FVG is formed in interval 09:30 - 10:00.

Weekly Power 3Did you know there is a simple line you can place on your chart to immediately make the weeks price action more understandable? Its called the Weekly Open Line. And its the opening price of the trading week. It was created by The Inner Circle Trader (ICT) and incorporates another one of his concepts called Power 3.
The Weekly Power 3 indicator takes the idea of the Weekly Open Line and builds a suite of intelligent and dynamic tools around it that will immediately help the user to start understanding how price moves within the trading week context.
Features
Static Weekly Open Line
Intelligent Days of the Week Text
Dynamic Weekly High Line
Dynamic Weekly Low Line
Weekly High Candle Label (highest candle of the week)
Weekly Low Candle Label (lowest candle of the week)
Best Odds High of the Week Zone Line & Text
Best Odds Low of the Week Zone Line & Text
Components
The primary feature is a line that forms on the weekly open price and grows as the week progresses. Additionally, lines are created for the highest and lowest prices of the week so the weekly profile can be easily recognized. A dynamic label marks each weeks highest and lowest point. This will automatically move as prices expand throughout the week.
A very useful component of the Weekly Power 3 indicator is the Days of the Week text. Each Day of the Week text is displayed in the middle of each trading day and also the user can specify in the Settings whether to position the text at the high or low of the weeks price range. Additionally, there is a Buffer setting that allows the user to move the Days of the Week text up or down to prevent chart overlapping.
To help the user visualize the span of time with the best odds of forming the weekly highs or weekly lows, according to ICT, this indicator adds at static line and optional label into the charts future that projects the span from Tuesday’s London Open to Wednesday’s New York. Having a static line out in the future on your chart really helps to picture where price could be drawn to based solely around time of the week.
Premise
ICT says that the weekly open price is the most important level that price reacts to across the five days of a trading week. If the week profile is expected to be bullish then price many times goes below the weekly open line at the beginning of the week and above it later in the week (a.k.a Bullish Power 3). Consequently, if the week is anticipated to be a bearish week, price often times starts the week high and then goes lower throughout the week (a.k.a Bearish Power 3).
ICT always specifies that the weekly high or weekly low have the best odds of forming between the Tuesday’s London Open and Wednesday’s New York Open.
Inputs and Style
Like all scripts publish by Infinity Trading, everything in the indicator is customizable by the user. Every label, line, or text can be individually toggled ON or OFF so the user has complete control over the elements they want displayed on their chart. All of the lines can be individually adjusted by color, line style, or line width. The color and text color on the high and low of the week labels can be individually changed. The text in the chart (day of the week & best odds zones text) each have a “buffer” value. This allows the user to individually move the text up or down on the chart to declutter the chart. And lastly, the day of the week text can be positioned above or below the weeks price action and the text will dynamically move higher or lower as price expands throughout the week.
Previous weeks have all of the Weekly Power 3 markups so it's easy to study past price action and identify trends.

Contrarian with 5 Levels5 Levels application was inspired and adapted from Predictive Ranges indicator developed by Lux Algo. So much credit to their work.
Indicator Description: Contrarian with 5 Levels
Overview
The "Contrarian with 5 Levels" indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders seeking to identify potential reversal points in the market by combining contrarian trading principles with dynamic support and resistance levels. This indicator overlays a Simple Moving Average (SMA) shadow and five adaptive price levels, integrating Institutional Concepts of Structure (ICT) such as Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) to provide clear buy and sell signals. It is ideal for traders looking to capitalize on overextended price movements, particularly on the daily timeframe, though it is adaptable to other timeframes with proper testing.
How It Works
The indicator operates on two core components:
Contrarian SMA Shadow: A shaded region between the SMA of highs and lows (default length: 100) acts as a dynamic zone to identify overbought or oversold conditions. When the price moves significantly outside this shadow, it signals potential exhaustion, aligning with contrarian trading principles.
Five Adaptive Levels: Using a modified ATR-based calculation, the indicator plots five key levels (two resistance, one average, and two support) that adjust dynamically to market volatility. These levels serve as critical zones for potential reversals.
ICT Structure Analysis: The indicator incorporates BOS and MSS logic to detect shifts in market structure, plotting bullish and bearish breaks with customizable colors for clarity.
Buy and sell signals are generated when the price crosses key levels while outside the SMA shadow, indicating potential reversal opportunities. The signals are visualized as small circles above (sell) or below (buy) the price bars, making them easy to interpret.
Mathematical Concepts
SMA Shadow: The indicator calculates the SMA of the highest highs and lowest lows over a user-defined period (default: 100). This creates a dynamic range that highlights extreme price movements, which contrarian traders often target for reversals.
Five Levels Calculation: The five levels are derived using a volatility-adjusted formula based on the Average True Range (ATR). The average level (central pivot) is calculated as a smoothed price, with two upper (resistance) and two lower (support) levels offset by a multiple of the ATR (default multiplier: 6.0). This adaptive approach ensures the levels remain relevant across varying market conditions.
ICT BOS/MSS Logic: The indicator identifies pivot highs and lows on a user-defined timeframe (default: daily) to detect structural breaks. A BOS occurs when the price breaks a prior pivot high (bullish) or low (bearish), while an MSS signals a shift in market direction, providing context for potential reversals.
Entry and Exit Rules
Buy Signal (Blue Dot Below Bar): Triggered when the closing price is below both the SMA shadow (smaLow) and the average level (avg), and the price crosses under either the first or second support level (prS1 or prS2). This suggests the market may be oversold, indicating a potential reversal upward.
Sell Signal (White Dot Above Bar): Triggered when the closing price is above both the SMA shadow (smaHigh) and the average level (avg), and the price crosses over either the first or second resistance level (prR1 or prR2). This suggests the market may be overbought, indicating a potential reversal downward.
Recommended Usage
This indicator is optimized for the daily timeframe, where it has been designed to capture significant reversal opportunities in trending or ranging markets. However, it can be adapted to other timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, 15M) with proper testing of settings such as SMA length, ATR multiplier, and structure timeframe. Users are encouraged to backtest and optimize parameters to suit their trading style and asset class.
Customization Options
SMA Length: Adjust the SMA period (default: 100) to control the sensitivity of the shadow.
Five Levels Length and Multiplier: Modify the length (default: 200) and ATR multiplier (default: 6.0) to fine-tune the support/resistance levels.
Timeframe Settings: Set separate timeframes for structure analysis and five levels to align with your trading strategy.
Color and Signal Display: Customize colors for BOS/MSS lines and toggle buy/sell signals on or off for a cleaner chart.
Why Use This Indicator?
The "Contrarian with 5 Levels" indicator combines the power of contrarian trading with dynamic levels and market structure analysis, offering a unique perspective for identifying high-probability reversal setups. Its intuitive design, customizable settings, and clear signal visualization make it suitable for both novice and experienced traders. Whether you're trading forex, stocks, or cryptocurrencies, this indicator provides a robust framework for spotting potential turning points in the market.
We hope you find the "Contrarian with 5 Levels" indicator a valuable addition to your trading toolkit! Happy trading!

FVG [TakingProphets]🧠 Purpose
This indicator is built for traders applying Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. It detects and manages Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) — price imbalances that often act as future reaction zones. It also highlights New Day Opening Gaps (NDOGs) and New Week Opening Gaps (NWOGs) that frequently play a role in early-session price behavior.
📚 What is a Fair Value Gap?
A Fair Value Gap forms when price moves rapidly, skipping over a portion of the chart between three candles — typically between the high of the first candle and the low of the third. These zones are considered inefficient, meaning institutions may return to them later to:
-Rebalance unfilled orders
-Enter or scale into positions
-Engineer liquidity with minimal slippage
In ICT methodology, FVGs are seen as both entry zones and targets, depending on market structure and context.
⚙️ How It Works
-This script automatically identifies and manages valid FVGs using the following logic:
-Bullish FVGs: When the low of the current candle is above the high from two candles ago
-Bearish FVGs: When the high of the current candle is below the body of two candles ago
-Minimum Gap Filter: Gaps must be larger than 0.05% of price
-Combine Consecutive Gaps (optional): Merges adjacent gaps of the same type
-Consequent Encroachment Line (optional): Plots the midpoint of each gap
-NDOG/NWOG Tracking: Labels gaps created during the 5–6 PM session transition
-Automatic Invalidation: Gaps are removed once price closes beyond their boundary
🎯 Practical Use
-Use unmitigated FVGs as potential entry points or targets
-Monitor NDOG and NWOG for context around daily or weekly opens
-Apply the midpoint (encroachment) line for precise execution decisions
-Let the script handle cleanup — only active, relevant zones remain visible
🎨 Customization
-Control colors for bullish, bearish, and opening gaps
-Toggle FVG borders and midpoint lines
-Enable or disable combining of consecutive gaps
-Fully automated zone management, no manual intervention required
✅ Summary
This tool offers a clear, rules-based approach to identifying price inefficiencies rooted in ICT methodology. Whether used for intraday or swing trading, it helps traders stay focused on valid, active Fair Value Gaps while filtering out noise and maintaining chart clarity.
CISD [TakingProphets]🧠 Indicator Purpose:
The "CISD - Change in State of Delivery" is a precision tool designed for traders utilizing ICT (Inner Circle Trader) conecpets. It detects critical shifts in delivery conditions after liquidity sweeps — helping you spot true smart money activity and optimal trade opportunities. This script is especially valuable for traders applying liquidity concepts, displacement recognition, and market structure shifts at both intraday and swing levels.
🌟 What Makes This Indicator Unique:
Unlike basic trend-following or scalping tools, CISD operates through a two-phase smart money logic:
Liquidity Sweep Detection (sweeping Buyside or Sellside Liquidity).
State of Delivery Change Identification (through bearish or bullish displacement after the sweep).
It intelligently tracks candle sequences and only signals a CISD event after true displacement — offering a much deeper context than ordinary indicators.
⚙️ How the Indicator Works:
Swing Point Detection: Identifies recent pivot highs/lows to map Buyside Liquidity (BSL) and Sellside Liquidity (SSL) zones.
Liquidity Sweeps: Watches for price breaches of these liquidity points to detect institutional stop hunts.
Sequence Recognition: Finds series of same-direction candles before sweeps to mark institutional accumulation/distribution.
Change of Delivery Confirmation: Confirms CISD only after significant displacement moves price against the initial candle sequence.
Visual Markings: Automatically plots CISD lines and optional labels, customizable in color, style, and size.
🎯 How to Use It:
Identify Liquidity Sweeps: Watch for CISD levels plotted after a liquidity sweep event.
Plan Entries: Look for retracements into CISD lines for high-probability entries.
Manage Risk: Use CISD levels to refine your stop-loss and profit-taking zones.
Best Application:
After stop hunts during Killzones (London Open, New York AM).
As part of the Flow State Model: identify higher timeframe PD Arrays ➔ wait for lower timeframe CISD confirmation.
🔎 Underlying Concepts:
Liquidity Pools: Highs and lows cluster stop orders, attracting institutional sweeps.
Displacement: Powerful price moves post-sweep confirm smart money involvement.
Market Structure: CISD frequently precedes major Change of Character (CHoCH) or Break of Structure (BOS) shifts.
🎨 Customization Options:
Adjustable line color, width, and style (solid, dashed, dotted).
Optional label display with customizable color and sizing.
Line extension settings to keep CISD zones visible for future reference.
✅ Recommended for:
Traders studying ICT Smart Money Concepts.
Intraday scalpers and higher timeframe swing traders.
Traders who want to improve entries around liquidity sweeps and institutional displacement moves.

Range Projections [TFO]The purpose of this indicator is to see how often price reached certain standard deviations from a selected time range. The inspiration for this was to study ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts regarding the Central Bank Dealer’s Range (CBDR), which is 2:00 pm - 8:00 pm New York local time according to ICT Core Content. However, the idea and data collection could certainly be applied to any range of time.
The main settings of this indicator are session time, range type, and the standard deviation filter. The session time is the window of price that will be utilized for range projections. The range type can be either body or wick (on the current timeframe). The standard deviation filter is used to eliminate sessions whose ranges (from high to low) are greater than the desired/input number of standard deviations from all available session ranges.
In this example, the time range is set to 16:00 - 20:00, or the time between the New York session close and the Asia session open. Our standard deviations are set to 1, 2, 2.5, and 4. Now, by taking this session’s price range and extrapolating these extensions from the initial range, we can use these levels to see if and how price interacts with them before the next 16:00 - 20:00 session.
Furthermore, we can enable the Data Table to analyze how often price trades to these levels for the sessions that are deemed valid (determined by the standard deviation filter). This time our standard deviations are set to 1, 2, 3, and 4.
This concept can theoretically be applied to any window of time. ICT has mentioned that, in instances where the CBDR is too large, the Asia range may be used instead. We can observe that the indicator behaves the same way when we change the session to the Asia range, 20:00 - 00:00.
Liquidity Engulfing & Displacement [MsF]Japanese below / 日本語説明は英文の後にあります。
-------------------------
*This indicator is based on upslidedown's "Liquidity Engulfing Candles ". It's a very cool indicator. thank you.
It has 2 functions: show the Liquidity Engulfing on HTF and candle color change when displacement occurs.
=== Function description ===
1. Liquidity Engulfing on HTF
This indicator gives Liquidity Engulfing signals not only for the current candle, but also for H4 and H1 on HTF.
You can use that a bullish engulfing on H1 is a BOS on m5 and on H4 is a BOS on m15. It uses the theory of stop hunt from ICT.
Also, It's possible to fire alert.
2. Displacement
Change the color display of the candlesticks when a bullish candleStick or bearish candleStick is attached. Furthermore, by enabling the "Require FVG" option, you can easily discover the FVG (Fair Value Gap). It is a very useful function for ICT trading.
When H1 candle takes liquidity from one side and moves with an explosive move to the other side of the previous candle (displacement), it creates break of market structure on M5. Entry on discount FVG or OTE with stop loss at or below the stop hunt wick.
=== Parameter description ===
- Liquidity engulfing candles(LEC) SETTING
- Show H1 LEC … Whether to show LEC for H1
- Show H4 LEC … Whether to show LEC for H4
- Show Current LEC … Whether to show LEC for current timeframe
- Apply Stop Hunt Wick Filter … Require candle wick into prior candle retracement zone
- Apply Close Filter … Require LL/HH on candle in order to print a valid engulfing signal
- DISPLACEMENT SETTING

AsianRange and KillZonesAsia Range Shadow Box and ICT Killzones
If you watch ICT on youtube you will know what to do with this :-)
I had found a lot of great ideas but none of them completely had what I was personally looking for so I put all of the great ideas I had found and added my own twist to it.
I wanted a easily customizable indicator that did the following
- Showed the Asia Range (customizable time)
- Allowed Asia range high and low to be extended
- Fill the asia range or just have it outlined
- The ability to have 4 customizable zones (default to ICT kill zones) but you can make them whatever you want
- Ability to turn off various zones if you want (Maybe you just want a New York Session and thats it)
I also place a "Max timeframe to display" - Personally I don't want this showing on anything over a 60min chart so you can adjust that parameter (in minutes) to your liking.
This was also fully converted to pine v4
I hope in a future revision to take use of the new "box" feature to get a cleaner box around Asia session.

Silver BulletSilver Bullet is a trading tool built for finding cleaner, higher-probability setups. It focuses on key windows of market movement and adds helpful tools like daily range levels and candlestick patterns.
Whether you’re trading breakouts or reversals, Silver Bullet gives you a clearer view of the market and more confidence in your setups.
⸻
🔹 Trading Setup #1: Macro Time
The Macro Time setting offers two modes: Macro Bullet and Silver Bullet. Both help traders focus on specific times when the market tends to deliver clean moves.
• Macro Bullet is based on the high and low of a full macro session. It automatically detects the session’s range and bias, then offers optimal entries for either Long or Short setups. Once the session resolves, it provides Fibonacci-based levels for entry, target, and stop loss.
• Silver Bullet is based on ICT concepts and focuses on the hourly range for London, NY AM, and NY PM sessions. It’s designed for quick time blocks and highlights key levels as the session unfolds.
To use this setup, set Macro Time to “ICT Sessions” and select your preferred mode under Bullet Mode.
⸻
🔹 Trading Setup #2: Daily Range
Enable Daily Range to draw Fibonacci levels based on either the previous day’s candle or the current day’s developing range. These levels help you identify potential support, resistance, and midpoint zones throughout the day.
With the current day’s range, levels automatically update in real time as new highs or lows form — keeping your chart aligned with evolving price action.
⸻
🔹 Trading Setup #3: Candlestick Patterns
Turn on Candlestick Patterns to automatically highlight clean reversal signals such as Hammers, Hanging Men, Shooting Stars, and Tweezers. Each pattern is detected using specific criteria and trend filters to reduce noise and improve reliability. They work especially well as confirmation signals around key levels or session zones.
Silver Bullet brings structure, clarity, and precision to your intraday trading. By combining time-based bias, price action levels, and pattern recognition, it helps you trade with purpose — not guesswork. Use one setup or combine all three for a complete view of the market, tailored to your style and session of choice.
