IBPDA Time Markers Daily OnlyThis indicator plots IBPDA (Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm) time markers based on true bar counts, not calendar days. Unlike many time-cycle tools that rely on calendar arithmetic, this script calculates 20 / 40 / 60 daily candles, ensuring accuracy across: market holidays shortened sessions exchange-specific trading calendars It is intentionally restricted to the Daily timeframe, where each bar represents one completed trading session. 🔍 What This Indicator Does Draws vertical lines at: −20 / −40 / −60 bars (exact historical daily candles) +20 / +40 / +60 bars (future projections for planning) Uses bar index–based logic, not calendar dates Prevents misuse by enforcing Daily timeframe only Draws lines once per chart load to avoid clutter and object limits ⚙️ Key Design Choices (Important) Past markers are exact Past levels use time , which means “n completed daily sessions ago” — no approximation. Future markers are projected Since future bars do not exist yet, forward levels are projected using a configurable day-step. These are meant for time-window awareness, not precision forecasting. No repainting All levels are fixed once drawn. 🧠 How to Use (Best Practice) IBPDA time levels are time magnets, not trade signals. They work best when combined with: Higher-timeframe PD arrays (weekly/monthly highs & lows) Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) Liquidity pools Market structure shifts Watch for price expansion, liquidity events, or displacement occurring near these time markers. 🛑 Limitations (By Design) Daily timeframe only Future levels are projections (exchange calendars cannot be predicted perfectly) This script does not generate buy/sell signals 🎯 Intended Audience This indicator is designed for: ICT / SMC traders Index futures traders (NQ, ES, YM, etc.) Swing traders and position traders Traders who respect time as a variable, not just price 🧩 Notes Best used as a contextual framework, not a standalone strategy Clean, lightweight, and safe for long-term chart usage Built with strict Pine Script v5 compatibility and publishing standards

Trend Candles - [EntryLab] Trend Candles: This indicator overrides or overlays standard chart candles with a color gradient that reflects a calculated trend bias (uptrend or downtrend), helping traders quickly assess the overall market direction.Features:Candles are colored using a gradient scale: stronger shades indicate higher-confidence trend direction based on the algorithm. Two usage modes: Full override: Disable and hide the chart's native ticker/symbol candles (via chart settings) so the indicator's colored candles take over completely. Hover preview: Keep your preferred candle setup/colors intact; simply hover the mouse over the indicator name in the chart legend to temporarily display the trend-colored gradient candles for quick reference without altering your main view. Customizable inputs (adjust in settings): gradient colors for up/down trends, intensity thresholds, etc. How it works (high-level): The trend bias is determined using a combination of multiple VWAP calculations, trend-following data, and momentum-based indicators. This multi-factor approach aims to provide a smoother, more reliable signal of whether the market is in an uptrend (bullish bias) or downtrend (bearish bias) compared to single-indicator methods. How to use: Apply the indicator to your chart and use the colored candles as a visual aid for trend bias decision-making. For example:In a strong uptrend (deeper bullish gradient), consider favoring long setups or avoiding shorts. In a downtrend (deeper bearish gradient), consider short opportunities or caution on longs. Combine with other tools (support/resistance, volume, etc.) for confluence rather than relying solely on candle color. This script offers a unique way to visualize trend strength via candle recoloring with gradient feedback, which can provide a broader overview of directional bias without cluttering the chart with additional plots/lines.Best suited for any timeframe, especially higher ones for swing/position trading or lower ones for intraday confirmation. No repainting occurs once a bar closes. Not financial advice. Trading carries significant risk of loss of capital. Always backtest and use discretion; results are not guaranteed.

New York | Asia | London - Session Range + ORB - [EntryLab]Session Ranges & 15min ORB – Asia, London, New YorkShort Title This indicator plots the high and low of the three major trading sessions (Asia, London, New York) as well as the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) levels based on the first 15 minutes of each session. Features: Full session high/low ranges for Asia (00:00–09:00 UTC), London (07:00–16:00 UTC), and New York (~13:30–20:00 UTC). Times are approximate UTC and may need adjustment depending on broker timezone or DST. ORB: high and low calculated from the first 15-minute period (or equivalent bars) at the start of each session. Customizable: toggle sessions on/off, change ORB duration, line styles, colors. How to use: Traders often monitor price action around prior session highs and lows to identify potential liquidity grabs or sweeps. The ORB provides additional confluence for gauging the session's potential directional bias or breakout levels.For example:A sweep of a prior session high/low can signal liquidity being taken. Price breaking above/below the session's ORB high/low may indicate momentum in that direction for the current session. This script combines multi-session range visualization with per-session ORB levels in one tool, which can help assess where liquidity pools may exist and where price could be drawn to fill or sweep certain areas.Best used on lower timeframes (e.g., 1m–15m) for intraday analysis. Session times are fixed (no automatic DST handling); users can modify them in the code if needed.Not financial advice. Trading involves significant risk of loss. Use at your own discretion and always test thoroughly.

FOCUS all in one (N-TABLOUH)It took me hours and hours to build this indicator so it shows the important stuff we need to watch as traders! Here you see a price label with a countdown, how much the asset has retraced from its high or low, and the total session range. You also get 4h separators to show the move, keeping you aware of the 4/8 or 12h window. Plus, there is a table showing the assets you want to trade so we don't have to go flip charts and waste time

Smart money PSP with color themesPSP with Color Themes — Price Strength Parity Indicator PSP with Color Themes is a visual correlation indicator designed to detect Price Strength Parity (PSP) between the current chart symbol and a reference symbol. It highlights candles where price behavior between two correlated instruments diverges or aligns, which is often used in SMT (Smart Money Technique) and intermarket analysis. The indicator works directly on the chart and colors candles when a PSP condition is detected, using flexible and customizable color themes. 📌 What Is PSP (Price Strength Parity)? PSP identifies situations where two correlated assets: Move in opposite directions → Direct PSP (classic SMT divergence) Move in the same direction → Inverse PSP (confirmation mode) Such behavior often precedes: Reversals Continuations Liquidity grabs Market structure shifts ⚙️ Indicator Inputs Reference Symbol Defines the second asset used for comparison (e.g., ETHUSDT vs BTCUSDT). Purpose: To detect relative strength or weakness between two correlated markets. Inverse Correlation Mode Inverse Correlation Mode (true / false) Allows switching between divergence-based and confirmation-based analysis. Color Theme Available presets: Green / Red Blue / Orange Purple / Yellow Teal / Pink Custom Purpose: Adapts the indicator visually to different chart styles and backgrounds. 📈 How to Use in Trading Typical use cases: SMT divergence detection Intermarket confirmation Reversal timing Liquidity sweep context SMC / ICT models Recommended combinations: Market Structure (BOS / CHoCH) Fair Value Gaps Liquidity levels Session highs /lows ⚠️ Important Notes PSP is context-based, not a standalone entry system Best results on correlated markets: BTC / ETH Indices (ES / NQ / YM) FX pairs (EURUSD / DXY)

PowerCandles - FVGThe FVG Body Highlighter is a high-visibility tool designed to identify institutional displacement and price imbalances in real-time. By focusing strictly on the Fair Value Gap (FVG) sequence, it isolates the exact moment "Smart Money" enters the market with enough force to leave an imbalance behind. Core Functionality Mechanical Detection: Automatically scans for the 3-candle FVG sequence where the wick of Candle 1 and the wick of Candle 3 fail to meet, leaving a "gap." Body-Centric Highlighting: Unlike standard box-heavy indicators, this tool colors the entire body of the second candle (the displacement bar). This keeps your chart clean and highlights the force of the move rather than just the area. Institutional Intent: It filters out noise by only marking candles that create a true structural gap, signaling that a significant buy or sell program has been initiated. Strategic Use Trend Confirmation: Use the body highlight as a "green light" that momentum has shifted in your direction after tapping a key institutional level. Zero-Clutter Mapping: Because it highlights bars rather than drawing boxes into the future, it is perfect for traders who prefer a clean price action chart but want to catch every Fair Value Gap as it forms. Confluence Entry: An A+ setup occurs when the FVG Body Highlighter triggers as price bounces off a PDH/PDL or Midnight Open level.

Institutional Structure [Clean Pro]Institutional Structure — Script Explanation This script is designed to map institutional market behavior using high-timeframe structure, not retail noise. It focuses on where smart money acts, not on frequent signals. 🔹 1. High-Timeframe Support & Resistance (HTF S/R) The script identifies major structural highs and lows using a higher lookback period. Purpose: Defines where institutions previously distributed or accumulated Acts as natural decision zones Filters out low-quality intraday levels Why it matters: Institutions trade from key HTF levels, not random support/resistance. 🔹 2. Equilibrium (50% Mean Price) The equilibrium line represents the fair price between HTF high and low. How it’s used: Below equilibrium → discount zone (buy interest) Above equilibrium → premium zone (sell interest) Professional insight: Smart money prefers buying discounts and selling premiums, not chasing price. 🔹 3. Market Structure Shift (MSS) Instead of frequent BOS labels, the script detects true directional shifts. Bullish MSS: Price closes above previous HTF high Bearish MSS: Price closes below previous HTF low Why MSS over BOS: MSS confirms control change Reduces false signals Aligns with institutional execution logic 🔹 4. Liquidity Sweep Detection (Wick-Based) The script identifies stop-hunt behavior using wick rejection logic. Buy-side liquidity: Wick above HTF high, but close back below Sell-side liquidity: Wick below HTF low, but close back above Meaning: Stops were triggered, but price failed to accept → smart money absorption 🔹 5. Fair Value Gap (FVG) – Refined Imbalance Fair Value Gaps highlight inefficient price movement. Bullish FVG: Price leaves an upside imbalance Bearish FVG: Price leaves a downside imbalance How pros use it: As reaction zones, not entry signals Best combined with liquidity + MSS 🔍 How Everything Works Together The script is context-based, not signal-based: 1️⃣ HTF structure defines the battlefield 2️⃣ Liquidity is taken (stop hunts) 3️⃣ MSS confirms direction 4️⃣ FVG offers precision 5️⃣ Equilibrium filters bias This creates high-probability trade environments, not overtrading. 📌 Best Practices (Professional Use) Timeframes: 1H / 4H / Daily Avoid lower TF noise Trade only after liquidity is taken Use FVG as confirmation, not trigger Respect equilibrium bias 🎯 Summary ✔ Clean institutional logic ✔ No clutter, no spam ✔ HTF-driven decisions ✔ Liquidity-first mindset ✔ Designed for BTC, Gold & FX 🧠 Trade where institutions trade — not where indicators flash.
