Fair Value Gaps - Cucaracha📘 Fair Value Gaps (FVG) – Clean, Automatic Detection & Real-Time Tracking The Fair Value Gaps (FVG) indicator automatically detects and visualizes Bullish and Bearish Fair Value Gaps directly on your chart. Built with precision, it highlights imbalance zones, continuously extends them in real time, and removes them the moment they’re mitigated — giving you a clean and accurate market structure view. ✅ Key Features Automatic FVG Detection Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs using a strict 3-candle imbalance model. Dynamic Boxes Each detected FVG is drawn as a shaded box and extends forward until price fills or mitigates the zone. Auto-Cleanup (Mitigation Logic) When price returns to the gap and fills it, the zone is instantly removed, keeping your chart clean and focused. Custom Colors Choose your own colors for bullish and bearish FVG boxes. 🎯 Why Traders Use This Fair Value Gaps are widely used in: Smart Money Concepts (SMC) ICT-style trading Market imbalance analysis They highlight areas where price moved aggressively and may later return to rebalance. This indicator helps you: Spot institutional imbalances instantly Track unmitigated FVGs without manually drawing boxes Stay focused on key reaction zones Improve entries based on premium/discount and liquidity concepts 🧠 How It Works Bullish FVG: Occurs when price leaves a gap where low > high , creating an upward imbalance zone. Bearish FVG: Occurs when high < low , indicating a downward imbalance zone. Detected gaps are plotted as forward-extending boxes until price mitigates them. Once mitigated (price fills the gap), the zone is automatically removed. 🟦🟥 Visuals Blue (or your chosen color): Bullish FVG Red (or your chosen color): Bearish FVG

Gold 1&5 Min Trading Strategy [TradingFinder] XAU Scalper Signal🔵 Introduction Scalping in financial markets is based on immediate price reactions and precise analysis of price action behavior. In this trading approach, the trader must identify signals that originate directly from market structure, momentum shifts, candlestick formations, and the position of price relative to key zones. Supply and demand areas serve as the primary regions of order concentration and form the foundation of scalping analysis, since they provide the most accurate representation of balance or imbalance between buyers and sellers as well as the active flow of liquidity in the market. In demand zones, price reactions usually begin with the formation of reversal or continuation candlestick patterns. These patterns include structures such as Pin Bar, Engulfing, Doji, Failure, Rejection, and other forms of false breakout behavior, each of which can indicate a potential short term change in direction. Liquidity plays a central role in these reactions, because price entering a demand zone typically coincides with the absorption of sell side liquidity and the restoration of order flow. This process often leads to rapid movements that are suitable for scalping. Therefore, combining candlestick confirmation with the location of price inside a supply or demand zone is one of the most reliable methods of identifying low risk scalping signals. Demand zones include several structural variations, each representing a different form of liquidity behavior. One of the most well known examples is the order block, which is the final bearish candle before a strong bullish movement and indicates the presence of unfilled buy side interest. Another important structure is the Fair Value Gap, which appears when a price void forms across three consecutive candles due to a lack of liquidity during the moment of displacement. The market often returns to this area to restore balance. Imbalance structures also represent one sided pressure in order flow where the market reacts later to correct these inefficiencies. Breaker structure is another key element in demand analysis. A breaker is formed when an order block is violated and price returns to the same level after collecting liquidity, then continues in the opposite direction. This pattern often appears near liquidity based highs or lows and reflects a shift in the strength of market participants. Together, order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, and breakers form the core of demand analysis in price action and are widely used in precise scalping strategies due to their strong connection with liquidity and the high predictability of price reactions within them. Bullish Setup : Bearish Setup : 🔵 How to Use This strategy is built on price action analysis, market reactions inside supply and demand zones, and confirmation through candlestick patterns. The first step is to identify key areas such as order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, or breakers. After these zones are located, price behavior within them is examined using candlestick structure and momentum direction. Entries are taken only when price reaches a validated zone, a clear sign of liquidity absorption or injection appears, and a confirming candlestick forms inside the zone. This approach allows the trader to capture fast and precise entries during moments when the market is actively reacting to decision points. 🟣 Long Setup In the buy setup, a valid demand zone must first be identified. This can be a bullish order block, an unfilled bullish Fair Value Gap, an imbalance at the lower part of structure, or a bullish breaker. When price enters this zone and shows signs of absorbing sell side liquidity, candlestick behavior must be examined. Formation of reversal signals such as a Pin Bar with a long lower wick, bullish Engulfing, Rejection Candle, or a false breakout of the low, indicates a favorable shift in order flow. After receiving candlestick confirmation, a buy entry is taken within the same zone and the stop level is placed below the liquidity boundary. Targets are typically based on filling gaps, reaching supply zones, or returning to structural means. 🟣 Short Setup In the sell setup, a valid supply zone must be recognized. This may include a bearish order block, a bearish Fair Value Gap, an imbalance at the upper part of structure, or a bearish breaker. When price enters this zone and liquidity accumulates above nearby highs, the probability of a fast momentum shift increases. Confirmation occurs when a bearish reversal pattern forms such as Engulfing, Pin Bar with a long upper wick, indecisive Doji followed by rejection, or a false breakout of the high. After confirmation, the sell entry is placed and the stop level is set above the liquidity zone. Targets are selected based on filling lower Fair Value Gaps, reaching demand zones, or returning to structural midpoints. 🔵 Settings Last Candle in Signal Direction : When On, a signal is issued only if the last candle moves in the direction required by the signal. Signal in Nearly Zone : When enabled, the signal becomes valid even if the candle is near the zone rather than strictly inside it. When disabled, only signals formed inside the zone are allowed. Allow Both Side Signals : When On, signals from both sides of the structure can be issued even if a limiting level exists. When disabled, only signals that do not violate the limiting level are allowed. 🔵 Conclusion Using price action, supply and demand zones, and candlestick confirmation alongside liquidity analysis creates an effective framework for identifying fast market reactions in scalping conditions. Focusing on structures such as order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, and breakers allows the trader to recognize shifts in momentum and changes in order flow with greater precision. In this approach, entries are taken only when price reaches a validated zone, liquidity behavior is observable, and the confirming candle forms at the correct location. This leads to organized, low risk scalping signals that are aligned with the real time behavior of the market.

SSMT + HSSMT Detector- Q to Q Analysis- (by FINOR V10.1)📘 Description This indicator detects Same-Side Market Trend (SSMT) and Hidden Same-Side Market Trend (HSSMT) divergences between three correlated symbols, providing multi-timeframe intermarket structure analysis. It works entirely in a Q-based framework, allowing precise identification of structural inefficiencies between related markets. 🕒 Session Structure and Logic The script divides price data into four time scopes: 1️⃣ Daily Session 2️⃣ 6-hour Session 3️⃣ 90-minute Session 4️⃣ 22.5-minute Session Each of these sessions is split into consecutive Q intervals (quarters). Within each Q, the algorithm detects local highs and lows for each of the three selected symbols. ⚙️ How It Works Q Analysis: For each session type, the algorithm evaluates the price structure of each symbol inside every Q. It identifies swing highs and lows to map short-term market structure boundaries. Inter-Q Comparison: The script compares consecutive Q periods to locate structural asymmetries — situations where correlated symbols fail to move in sync. These asymmetries often reveal intermarket inefficiencies and potential reversals or continuations. SSMT Detection: The SSMT logic checks for divergence in highs and lows between the selected symbols. For example, if Symbol A makes a higher high but Symbol B does not, an SSMT signal is generated. HSSMT Detection: The HSSMT logic performs a similar analysis but based solely on closing prices, detecting hidden divergences that may appear within continuation phases rather than reversals. 🧭 Visualization and Alerts Each detected event is labeled directly on the chart with visual tags showing whether it is an SSMT or HSSMT event. Color-coded markers distinguish between highs, lows, and closes depending on the detected structure. Optional smart alerts instantly notify the trader when a new SSMT or HSSMT signal is found. 💡 Use Cases Confirm institutional SMT setups across correlated indices or assets. Detect non-synchronous behavior between correlated pairs for early reversal confirmation. Identify continuation or exhaustion points in multi-symbol price action. 🧠 Summary This tool provides an advanced, multi-timeframe method to visualize and quantify intermarket divergences using a Q-segmented framework. It allows traders to observe both explicit (SSMT) and hidden (HSSMT) inefficiencies between correlated symbols in real time — a capability not available in standard open-source SMT detectors.

ERL [#]ICT Concepts by shulktrades Beginner Concept External Range Liquidity — ERL Description: The ERL indicator identifies External Range Liquidity zones by plotting the highs and lows of a user-selected timeframe. These zones represent areas where liquidity is likely to accumulate and are updated in real time based on higher-timeframe candle tracking, giving traders a precise and adaptable view of liquidity across multiple timeframes. This indicator does not produce trade signals or alerts. It is intended as a visual and analytical tool to provide confluence and context within a trader’s existing strategy. How It Works (Conceptually) Timeframe Selection Users can select a single timeframe (e.g., H1, H4, D1) to define which candle highs and lows will be used to draw ERL zones. This allows traders to focus on their preferred timeframe for liquidity analysis. Highs and Lows Mapping The script identifies the highest high and lowest low of each candle on the selected timeframe and plots these levels as ERL zones on the chart. These zones act as reference points for potential liquidity concentration. Higher-Timeframe Candle Tracking ERL zones are updated with each new higher-timeframe candle, rather than relying solely on the chart’s native timeframe. This ensures that the liquidity levels are aligned with HTF market structure, not just local price swings. Dynamic Zone Updates As each HTF candle closes, ERL zones are refreshed to reflect the most recent data. This dynamic updating allows traders to always see the most relevant and actionable liquidity ranges without manual adjustment. Unique Implementation Features The ERL indicator differs from other liquidity or range indicators in several important ways: User-Selectable Timeframe Unlike static range indicators, ERL allows the user to define the exact timeframe from which liquidity highs and lows are drawn. HTF Tracking The indicator updates in alignment with higher-timeframe candles, ensuring that liquidity zones are consistent with broader market structure, not just local price noise. Dynamic Updates ERL zones refresh automatically as each HTF candle completes, providing real-time context for traders and avoiding clutter from outdated levels. Clear Visual Implementation ERL zones are plotted cleanly on the chart, with distinct coloring and line styling to clearly differentiate them from other indicators or market levels. How to Use It Apply the ERL indicator to view high and low zones of your selected timeframe as potential liquidity areas. Use these zones as contextual confluence when evaluating trades or market structure, not as trade signals. Combine with other tools, such as order blocks, fair value gaps, and liquidity sweeps, to enhance market analysis. Adjust the selected timeframe according to your preferred analytical perspective. Originality and Purpose The ERL indicator is original because: It allows user-defined timeframe selection for ERL calculation. It uses higher-timeframe candle tracking to maintain alignment with broad market structure. It dynamically updates each HTF candle, ensuring the plotted zones are current and accurate. Its visual clarity and precision differentiate it from open-source range or liquidity indicators that either plot static levels or do not adapt to HTF candles. These features justify its closed-source status, as the combination of timeframe flexibility, HTF tracking, and dynamic visualization is not replicated in standard ERL tools. Important Notes For visual analysis and educational use only. Does not generate trade alerts, entries, or recommendations. Most effective for traders who understand higher-timeframe market structure and liquidity analysis. Always apply personal risk management and independent confirmation when using this tool.

Realtime Squeeze Box [CHE] Realtime Squeeze Box — Detects lowvolatility consolidation periods and draws trimmed price range boxes in realtime to highlight potential breakout setups without clutter from outliers. Summary This indicator identifies "squeeze" phases where recent price volatility falls below a dynamic baseline threshold, signaling potential energy buildup for directional moves. By requiring a minimum number of consecutive bars in squeeze, it reduces noise from fleeting dips, making signals more reliable than simple threshold crosses. The core innovation is realtime box visualization: during active squeezes, it builds and updates a box capturing the price range while ignoring extreme values via quantile trimming, providing a cleaner view of consolidation bounds. This differs from static volatility bands by focusing on trimmed ranges and suppressing overlapping boxes, which helps traders spot genuine setups amid choppy markets. Overall, it aids in anticipating breakouts by combining volatility filtering with visual containment of price action. Motivation: Why this design? Traders often face whipsaws during brief volatility lulls that mimic true consolidations, leading to premature entries, or miss setups because standard volatility measures lag in adapting to changing market regimes. This design addresses that by using a hold requirement on consecutive lowvolatility bars to denoise signals, ensuring only sustained squeezes trigger visuals. The core idea—comparing rolling standard deviation to a smoothed baseline—creates a responsive yet stable filter for lowenergy periods, while the trimmed box approach isolates the core price cluster, making it easier to gauge breakout potential without distortion from spikes. What’s different vs. standard approaches? Reference baseline: Traditional squeeze indicators like the Bollinger Band Squeeze or TTM Squeeze rely on fixed multiples of bands or momentum oscillators crossing zero, which can fire on isolated bars or ignore range compression nuances. Architecture differences: Realtime box construction that updates barbybar during squeezes, using arrays to track and trim price values. Quantilebased outlier rejection to define box bounds, focusing on the bulk of prices rather than full range. Overlap suppression logic that skips redundant boxes if the new range intersects heavily with the prior one. Hold counter for consecutive bar validation, adding persistence before signaling. Practical effect: Charts show fewer, more defined orange boxes encapsulating tight price action, with a horizontal line extension marking the midpoint postsqueeze—visibly reducing clutter in sideways markets and highlighting "coiled" ranges that standard plots might blur with full highs/lows. This matters for quicker visual scanning of multitimeframe setups, as boxes selflimit to recent history and avoid piling up. How it works (technical) The indicator starts by computing a rolling average and standard deviation over a userdefined length on the chosen source price series. This deviation measure is then smoothed into a baseline using either a simple or exponential average over a longer window, serving as a reference for normal volatility. A squeeze triggers when the current deviation dips below this baseline scaled by a multiplier less than one, but only after a minimum number of consecutive bars confirm it, which resets the counter on breaks. Upon squeeze start, it clears a buffer and begins collecting source prices barbybar, limited to the first few bars to keep computation light. For visualization, if enabled, it sorts the buffer and finds a quantile threshold, then identifies the minimum value at or below that threshold to set upper and lower box bounds—effectively clamping the range to exclude tails above the quantile. The box draws from the start bar to the current one, updating its right edge and levels dynamically; if the new bounds overlap significantly with the last completed box, it suppresses drawing to avoid redundancy. Once the hold limit or squeeze ends, the box freezes: its final bounds become the last reference, a midpoint line extends rightward from the end, and a tiny circle label marks the point. Buffers and states reset on new squeezes, with historical boxes and lines capped to prevent overload. All logic runs on every bar but uses confirmed historical data for calculations, with realtime updates only affecting the active box's position—no future peeking occurs. Initialization seeds with null values, building states progressively from the first bars. Parameter Guide Source: Selects the price series (e.g., close, hl2) for deviation and box building; influences sensitivity to wicks or bodies. Default: close. Tradeoffs/Tips: Use hl2 for balanced range view in volatile assets; stick to close for pure directional focus—test on your timeframe to avoid oversmoothing trends. Length (Mean/SD): Sets window for average and deviation calculation; shorter values make detection quicker but noisier. Default: 20. Tradeoffs/Tips: Increase to 30+ for stability in higher timeframes, reducing false starts; below 10 risks overreacting to singlebar noise. Baseline Length: Defines smoothing window for the deviation baseline; longer periods create a steadier reference, filtering regime shifts. Default: 50. Tradeoffs/Tips: Pair with Length at 1:2 ratio for calm markets; shorten to 30 if baselines lag during fast volatility drops, but watch for added whips. Squeeze Multiplier (<1.0): Scales the baseline downward to set the squeeze threshold; lower values tighten criteria for rarer, stronger signals. Default: 0.8. Tradeoffs/Tips: Tighten to 0.6 for highvol assets like crypto to cut noise; loosen to 0.9 in forex for more frequent but shallower setups—balances hit rate vs. depth. Baseline via EMA (instead of SMA): Switches baseline smoothing to exponential for faster adaptation to recent changes vs. equalweighted simple average. Default: false. Tradeoffs/Tips: Enable in trending markets for quicker baseline drops; disable for uniform history weighting in rangebound conditions to avoid overreacting. SD: Sample (len1) instead of Population (len): Adjusts deviation formula to divide by length minus one for smallsample bias correction, slightly inflating values. Default: false. Tradeoffs/Tips: Use sample in short windows (<20) for more conservative thresholds; population suits long looks where bias is negligible, keeping signals tighter. Min. Hold Bars in Squeeze: Requires this many consecutive squeeze bars before confirming; higher denoise but may clip early setups. Default: 1. Tradeoffs/Tips: Bump to 35 for intraday to filter ticks; keep at 1 for swings where quick consolidations matter—trades off timeliness for reliability. Debug: Plot SD & Threshold: Toggles lines showing raw deviation and threshold for visual backtesting of squeeze logic. Default: false. Tradeoffs/Tips: Enable during tuning to eyeball crossovers; disable live to declutter—great for verifying multiplier impact without alerts. Tint Bars when Squeeze Active: Overlays semitransparent color on bars during open box phases for quick squeeze spotting. Default: false. Tradeoffs/Tips: Pair with low opacity for subtlety; turn off if using boxes alone, as tint can obscure candlesticks in dense charts. Tint Opacity (0..100): Controls background tint strength during active squeezes; higher values darken for emphasis. Default: 85. Tradeoffs/Tips: Dial to 60 for light touch; max at 100 risks hiding price action—adjust per chart theme for visibility. Stored Price (during Squeeze): Price series captured in the buffer for box bounds; defaults to source but allows customization. Default: close. Tradeoffs/Tips: Switch to high/low for wider boxes in gappy markets; keep close for midline focus—impacts trim effectiveness on outliers. Quantile q (0..1): Fraction of sorted prices below which tails are cut; higher q keeps more data but risks including spikes. Default: 0.718. Tradeoffs/Tips: Lower to 0.5 for aggressive trim in noisy assets; raise to 0.8 for fuller ranges—tune via debug to match your consolidation depth. Box Fill Color: Sets interior shade of squeeze boxes; semitransparent for layering. Default: orange (80% trans.). Tradeoffs/Tips: Soften with more transparency in multiindicator setups; bold for standalone use—ensures boxes pop without overwhelming. Box Border Color: Defines outline hue and solidity for box edges. Default: orange (0% trans.). Tradeoffs/Tips: Match fill for cohesion or contrast for edges; thin width keeps it clean—helps delineate bounds in zoomed views. Keep Last N Boxes: Limits historical boxes/lines/labels to this count, deleting oldest for performance. Default: 10. Tradeoffs/Tips: Increase to 50 for weekly reviews; set to 0 for unlimited (risks lag)—balances history vs. speed on long charts. Draw Box in Realtime (build/update): Enables live extension of boxes during squeezes vs. waiting for end. Default: true. Tradeoffs/Tips: Disable for confirmedonly views to mimic backtests; enable for proactive trading—adds minor repaint on live bars. Box: Max First N Bars: Caps buffer collection to initial squeeze bars, freezing after for efficiency. Default: 15. Tradeoffs/Tips: Shorten to 510 for fast intraday; extend to 20 in dailies—prevents bloated arrays but may truncate long squeezes. Reading & Interpretation Squeeze phases appear as orange boxes encapsulating the trimmed price cluster during lowvolatility holds—narrow boxes signal tight consolidations, while wider ones indicate looser ranges within the threshold. The box's top and bottom represent the quantilecapped high and low of collected prices, with the interior fill shading the containment zone; ignore extremes outside for "true" bounds. Postsqueeze, a solid horizontal line extends right from the box's midpoint, acting as a reference level for potential breakout tests—drifting prices toward or away from it can hint at building momentum. Tiny orange circles at the line's start mark completion points for easy scanning. Debug lines (if on) show deviation hugging or crossing the threshold, confirming hold logic; a persistent hug below suggests prolonged calm, while spikes above reset counters. Practical Workflows & Combinations Trend following: Enter long on squeezeend close above the box top (or midpoint line) confirmed by higher high in structure; filter with rising 50period average to avoid countertrend traps. Use boxes as support/resistance proxies—short below bottom in downtrends. Exits/Stops: Trail stops to the box midpoint during postsqueeze runs for conservative holds; go aggressive by exiting on retest of opposite box side. If debug shows repeated threshold grazes, tighten stops to curb drawdowns in ranging followups. Multiasset/MultiTF: Defaults work across stocks, forex, and crypto on 15min+ frames; scale Length proportionally (e.g., x2 on hourly). Layer with highertimeframe boxes for confluence—e.g., daily squeeze + 1H box for entry timing. (Unknown/Optional: Specific multiTF scaling recipes beyond proportional adjustment.) Behavior, Constraints & Performance Repaint/confirmation: Core calculations use historical closes, confirming on bar close; active boxes repaint their right edge and levels live during squeezes if enabled, but freeze irrevocably on hold limit or end—mitigates via barbybar buffer adds without future leaks. No lookahead indexes. security()/HTF: None used, so no external timeframe repaints; all native to chart resolution. Resources: Caps at 300 boxes/lines/labels total; small arrays (up to 20 elements) and short loops in sorting/minfinding keep it light—suitable for 10k+ bar charts without throttling. Persistent variables track state across bars efficiently. Known limits: May lag on ultrasharp volatility spikes due to baseline smoothing; gaps or thin markets can skew trims if buffer hits cap early; overlaps suppress visuals but might hide chained squeezes—(Unknown/Optional: Edge cases in nonstandard sessions). Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning Start with defaults for most liquid assets on 1Hdaily: Length 20, Multiplier 0.8, Hold 1, Quantile 0.718—yields balanced detection without excess noise. For too many false starts (choppy charts), increase Hold to 3 and Baseline Length to 70 for stricter confirmation, reducing signals by 3050%. If squeezes feel sluggish or miss quick coils, shorten Length to 14 and enable EMA baseline for snappier adaptation, but monitor for added flips. In highvol environments like options, tighten Multiplier to 0.6 and Quantile to 0.6 to focus on core ranges; reverse for calm pairs by loosening to 0.95. Always backtest tweaks on your asset's history. What this indicator is—and isn’t This is a volatilityfiltered visualization tool for spotting and bounding consolidation phases, best as a signal layer atop price action and trend filters—not a standalone predictor of direction or strength. It highlights setups but ignores volume, momentum, or news context, so pair with discreteness rules like higher highs/lows. Never use it alone for entries; always layer risk management, such as 12% stops beyond box extremes, and position sizing based on account drawdown tolerance.
