ZigZag Volume Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW ZigZag Volume Profile combines swing structure with volume analytics by plotting a ZigZag of major price swings and overlaying a detailed volume profile around each swing. At the end of each swing, it highlights the Point of Control (POC) — the price level with the highest traded volume — and extends it forward to identify key areas of potential support or resistance. ⯁ KEY FEATURES ZigZag Swing Detection: Automatically detects swing highs and lows based on a user-defined length, creating clean visual segments of market structure. These segments act as boundaries for volume profile calculations. swingHigh = ta.highest(swingLength) swingLow = ta.lowest(swingLength) ZigZag Channel Visualization: The ZigZag structure is connected with sloped lines, forming a visual “channel” of the price movement. The ZigZag can optionally, scaled by ATR. Volume Profile Around Each Swing: For every completed swing (high to low or low to high), the indicator constructs a full volume profile using user-defined bin counts. It scans volume across price levels in the swing and plots histogram-style bins using a gradient color to indicate volume magnitude. Dynamic Bin Width and Slope Adjustment: Bins are distributed across a vertical ATR-based range, and their width is adjusted based on the percentage of total swing volume. The volume fill direction is adapted to the swing’s slope for visually aligned plotting. POC Detection and Extension: The highest volume bin in each swing is identified as the Point of Control (POC). This level is plotted with a thicker line and extended horizontally into the future as a key reaction level. Automatic POC Expiry on Price Interaction: POC lines are continuously extended unless breached by price. When price crosses the POC level, the extension is terminated — signaling that the level may have been absorbed. Clean Volume Bin Visualization: Bin colors range from green (low volume) to blue (higher volume), with the POC always marked in red by default for easy identification. Volume percentages are optionally labeled at each bin level. Flexible Swing Profile Parameters: Users can control: Number of volume bins Bin width Channel width (ATR factor) Visibility of the swing channel or POC lines Efficient Memory Handling: Old POC lines and volume profiles are automatically removed from memory after a threshold to keep charts clean and performant. ⯁ USAGE Use ZigZag swings to define market structure visually. Analyze volume profile around each swing to understand where most trading activity occurred. Use POC extensions as dynamic support/resistance zones for entries, stops, or take-profits. Watch for price interaction with extended POC lines — breaks may suggest absorbed liquidity or breakout potential. Use the ATR-based channel width to adapt profiles based on market volatility. ⯁ CONCLUSION ZigZag Volume Profile offers a powerful fusion of structure and volume. By plotting detailed volume profiles over each price swing and extending the POC as actionable S/R levels, this tool provides deep insight into market participation zones — giving traders a tactical edge in both ranging and trending environments.

Real-Time Swing High/Low Detector with liquidity sweepThis script identifies the most important market structure points (swing highs/lows) and liquidity sweeps in a configurable and timeframe-adaptive manner. By default: It shows 5 recent swing highs and lows to keep your charts readable. It detects and illustrates up to 3 Liquidity Sweeps (very close new highs/lows to earlier extremes). It automatically adjusts how tight the sweep detection is based on your chart’s timeframe to balance precision and noise. You can tweak all these numbers via the input settings panel to customize the indicator to your personal trading style and chart preferences Configurable Parameters Pivot Length (pivot_length) What it does: Determines how many bars to the left and right the script looks at when identifying swing highs and lows. Effect: Increasing this value results in fewer, more significant swings; decreasing it makes the indicator more sensitive and detects more swings. Default: 5 Suggested: Adjust based on your trading timeframe and style to balance sensitivity and noise. Show Labels (show_labels) What it does: Toggles the display of swing labels such as HH, HL, LH, LL on the chart. Effect: If enabled, the script marks swing points with their corresponding label for easier visual reference. Default: true Use: Turn off if you prefer a cleaner chart without textual swing indicators. Show Current Levels (show_current_levels) What it does: Toggles horizontal lines extending from the latest swing highs and lows. Effect: Provides visual support/resistance zones on the chart. Default: true Use: Helpful for visualizing major price levels based on recent swings. Max Swing Points (max_swings) What it does: Limits the number of swing points stored and displayed. Effect: Prevents chart clutter and performance issues by controlling history length. Default: 20 Use: Increase for longer history; decrease for lighter charts. Liquidity Sweep Threshold (liq_sweep_threshold_pc) What it does: Defines the maximum percentage price difference allowed to consider a new high/low "very close" to the previous one, detecting a Liquidity Sweep. Effect: Controls how sensitively the script detects these sweep points. Default: Automatically set based on chart timeframe: For timeframes below 1 hour: 0.05% (stricter, less tolerant) For 1 hour and above: 0.1% (more tolerant) Use: This dynamic setting ensures relevance of Liquidity Sweeps across different timeframes. Liquidity Sweep Label Transparency (liq_sweep_alpha) What it does: Controls the opacity of "Liquidity Sweep" labels, with 0 being fully opaque and 255 fully transparent. Default: 10 (mostly opaque but slightly transparent) Use: You can increase this value if you want the labels to be more subtle.

ICT Confirmed FVG Indicator ICT FVG Indicator (Confirmed by Swings) Summary This indicator is designed to identify high-probability Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) by confirming them with market structure. It filters out random imbalances and only highlights the FVGs that are created at the same time as a confirmed ICT Swing High or Swing Low. The core principle is to connect price imbalances directly to significant shifts in market structure, providing a cleaner and more powerful signal. What It Does Identifies Swing Points: Automatically detects and draws confirmed swing highs (resistance) and swing lows (support) on your chart based on the settings you choose. Finds Fair Value Gaps: It scans the chart for the classic 3-candle FVG pattern (also known as a BISI or SIBI). Confirms FVGs with Swings: This is the most important feature. The indicator will only draw an FVG box if one of the three candles that created the FVG is also a confirmed swing point. This ensures you are only seeing imbalances that are directly related to a break in market structure. Invalidates Old FVGs: To keep the chart clean, the indicator will automatically remove an FVG box after the price has fully passed through it a certain number of times (customizable in the settings). Settings Explained ICT Swings Settings Left/Right Strength: Controls the sensitivity of the swing detection. Higher numbers require a more significant, obvious swing point to be confirmed. Lower numbers will identify more minor swings. Max Swing Lines: Sets the maximum number of swing high and swing low lines to display on the chart at one time. Swing High/Low Color: Customize the color of the swing point lines. FVG Settings Show Bullish/Bearish FVG: Use these checkboxes to turn the bullish (green) or bearish (red) FVG boxes on or off. Bullish/Bearish FVG Color: Customize the color of the FVG boxes. FVG Invalidation Threshold: This sets how many times the price can fully close on the other side of an FVG before the box is automatically removed. Max Active FVGs to Show: Sets the maximum number of FVG boxes to keep on the chart to prevent clutter. Key Features High-Probability Signals: Filters out noise by focusing only on FVGs that are confirmed by a shift in market structure. Clean Visuals: Automatically draws and removes swing lines and FVG boxes to keep your chart uncluttered. Fully Customizable: Adjust the sensitivity of the swing detection and the appearance of the FVGs to fit your trading style. Pure ICT Concepts: Built strictly on the principles of Inner Circle Trader for a method-consistent analysis.

ICT OTE Strategy Crypto PublicICT OTE Strategy Crypto Public This strategy automates a classic ICT (Inner Circle Trader) setup specifically tailored for the high-volatility nature of cryptocurrency markets. It aims to enter a trade on a retracement after a confirmed Break of Structure (BOS), using a dual-swing detection method to validate the market's direction before looking for an entry. The entire process is automated, from identifying the market structure to managing the trade with advanced risk management options. This version uses a percentage of equity for its order sizing, which is ideal for crypto trading. How It Works Dual Swing Detection: The strategy uses two different sets of swing strengths to analyze market structure for higher accuracy: Entry Swings: Weaker, more sensitive swings used to define the immediate dealing range for a potential trade. Validator Swings: Stronger, more significant swings used to confirm a true Break of Structure. Break of Structure (BOS): A trade setup is only considered valid after a strong "Validator" swing breaks through a previous "Entry" swing. This confirms the market's intended direction and filters out weak or false moves. Identify Retracement Leg: After a confirmed BOS, the strategy identifies the most recent "Entry Swing" price leg that led to the break. Auto-Fibonacci: It automatically draws a Fibonacci retracement over this leg, from the start of the move (1.0) to the end (0.0). Trade Entry: A limit order is placed at a user-defined Fibonacci level (defaulting to 0.618), anticipating a price pullback into a discount or premium array. After a bullish BOS, it looks to BUY the retracement. After a bearish BOS, it looks to SELL the retracement. Risk Management: Stop Loss is placed at the start of the leg (the 1.0 level). Take Profit is placed at a user-defined level (defaulting to the 0.0 level, with extension options). Includes an option to move the stop loss to break-even after the trade has moved a certain distance in profit. How to Use Asset Selection: This strategy is designed for cryptocurrency markets. Its use of percentage-based order sizing is not suitable for tick-based markets like futures. Swing Settings: Adjust the "Entry Swing" and "Validator" strengths to match the volatility and timeframe of the asset you are trading. Higher numbers will result in fewer, more significant setups. Backtest: Use the Strategy Tester to optimize the "FIB Entry Level," "Take Profit Level," and "Swing Sensitivity" to find the best settings for your specific market and timeframe.

ICT Order Blocks HTFICT Order Blocks HTF (with Parent Swing Confirmation) This indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify high-probability Higher-Timeframe (HTF) Order Blocks by confirming them with significant liquidity sweeps on your trading chart. It combines two core ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts to filter out noise and highlight only the most sensitive areas. The Core Concept: A High-Probability Model The most powerful trading setups often occur when a significant event on a lower timeframe happens at a key area on a higher timeframe. This indicator automates that analysis by looking for a specific confluence: A Liquidity Sweep (LTF): First, it identifies a "Parent Swing" on your current chart. This is a significant swing high (BSL - Buy Side Liquidity) or swing low (SSL - Sell Side Liquidity) that has been validated by a market structure shift. These are the key liquidity pools the market targets. An Order Block (HTF): Separately, it looks at a higher timeframe of your choice (e.g., 15m, 1H) to find institutional order blocks—the last up or down candle before a strong move. The Confluence: The magic happens here. The indicator will only draw an HTF order block on your chart if it forms at the exact moment the price is interacting with one of the BSL or SSL liquidity pools from your current chart. This dual confirmation provides a refined, high-probability signal, indicating that a major liquidity event is fueling a reaction from a significant HTF level. What the Indicator Does Identifies Parent Swings: In the background, it constantly tracks and identifies BSL (red lines) and SSL (green lines) on your chart. Finds HTF Order Blocks: It looks for bullish (last down-candle) and bearish (last up-candle) order blocks on the higher timeframe you select. Draws Confirmed Zones: It draws a Bullish OB (Blue Box) only when an HTF bullish order block forms at an SSL level. It draws a Bearish OB (Orange Box) only when an HTF bearish order block forms at a BSL level. Marks Key Levels: Each order block is automatically drawn with dashed lines marking its high, low, and midpoint (50% level) for precise entry and risk management. Real-Time Invalidation: The order blocks extend into the future and are tracked in real-time. If price closes through a block a specified number of times, the zone is considered invalid and will be dimmed, keeping your chart clean. How to Use This Indicator The primary use for this indicator is to identify high-probability entry zones. When a Bullish Order Block (Blue) appears, it signals a potential area of demand where you might look for long entries. When a Bearish Order Block (Orange) appears, it signals a potential area of supply where you might look for short entries. The internal lines (high, low, midpoint) can be used for more precise entries or for setting stop-loss levels. Settings Higher Timeframe for Order Blocks: Choose the HTF you want the indicator to analyze for order blocks (e.g., 15m, 1H, 4H). OB Invalidation Threshold: Set how many times price must close fully through an order block before it is considered invalid. Parent Swing Settings: You can adjust the lookback periods and invalidation threshold for the BSL/SSL detection to match your trading style. A larger lookback will find more significant liquidity pools. Disclaimer: This indicator is a tool to assist in technical analysis. It is not a standalone trading system and does not provide financial advice. Always use proper risk management and combine this tool with your own analysis and trading strategy.

Yuri Garcia Smart Money Strategy FULL (COMPLIANT)Yuri Garcia Smart Money Strategy FULL (Slope Divergence) This script is not a mashup of random indicators. It is an original, coherent strategy that blends multiple institutional-grade tools to form a unified Smart Money trading system. Each component contributes to precise trade filtering, context, and confirmation — no element is decorative or redundant. 🔍 Strategy Logic: How It Works This strategy integrates the following tools, each with a clearly defined role: 1. Volume Cluster Zones (Orange bands) Identifies strong buy/sell areas using the highest volume nodes over a rolling window. These act as dynamic points of control where Smart Money is likely active. 2. HTF Zones (4H) (Purple band) Defines institutional zones by using the 20-bar high/low on the 4-hour chart. These set the outer bounds for valid entries, ensuring alignment with larger market structure. 3. Wick Pullback Filter (Orange circle 🔶) Detects exhaustion or absorption near zones. Used to confirm genuine rejection after liquidity sweeps or traps. 4. Cumulative Delta Confirmation (Red square 🟥) Analyzes whether buyers or sellers are dominant using delta volume. Trades only trigger when volume confirms the intended direction. 5. Slope-Based Delta Divergence (Optional) Detects hidden reversals between price and delta. This prevents late entries and provides early insight into potential trap reversals. 6. Liquidity Grab Detection (Blue diamond 🔷) Marks smart money stop hunts — temporary price breaks beyond highs/lows, followed by reversal. Used as a confluence tool. 7. ATR-Based Dynamic Risk Control The strategy uses ATR to calculate SL/TP dynamically. This allows position sizing to adjust to volatility, reducing overexposure in high-momentum conditions. 🎯 Entry Criteria All the following conditions must be met: ✅ Price is inside a Volume Cluster Zone ✅ Price is within the HTF Institutional Zone ✅ Wick Pullback confirms reaction ✅ Delta confirms strength of buyers/sellers ✅ (Optional) Slope-based divergence signals hidden shift ✅ (Optional) Liquidity grab occurs Only then will the strategy trigger an entry. 📈 Visual Legend (Symbols on Chart) Symbol Description 🟣 Purple Zone HTF Support/Resistance zone (4H context) 🟠 Orange Zone Volume cluster from top 3 volume nodes 🔶 Orange Circle Wick Pullback confirmation 🟥 Red Square Delta Confirmation 🔷 Blue Diamond Liquidity Grab indicator 🔵 Blue X Price is inside HTF Zone 🔻 Red Triangle SHORT entry signal 🔺 Green Triangle LONG entry signal These visuals make it easier to read the chart intuitively while understanding each condition’s role. ⚙️ Strategy Settings Justification Default Qty: 2% of equity (sustainable risk) RRR: 2.0 (adaptive to volatility) ATR Multiplier: 2.0 for SL/TP Commission: 0.1% used Slippage: 2 points for realism Minimum Trades for Testing: Designed to generate over 100 trades under normal backtest conditions Dataset: Supports BTC, GOLD, Forex, Indices with realistic volatility and volume These settings reflect a realistic use case for average retail traders and avoid overfitting or unrealistic returns. 📌 How to Use Apply on 15-minute or 1-hour timeframe. Wait for full alignment of all entry conditions. Confirm visually or use included alerts for manual or bot execution. SL and TP are automatically handled. 🚫 Important Notes This script is original, not a remix or mashup of unrelated indicators. Each component was designed to work in harmony, enhancing trade quality and confidence. No external scripts are required to function. Alert messages are pre-formatted for both manual and webhook use.

ICT OTE StrategyStrategy Overview This strategy is designed to automate a specific trading setup based on the concepts of Inner Circle Trader (ICT). Its primary goal is to identify significant market structure swings, frame a Fibonacci retracement over the most recent price leg, and execute a trade when the price pulls back to a key user-defined level. It is a counter-trend entry strategy, meaning it looks to enter a trade during a pullback within an established trend. How It Works: Step-by-Step 1. Swing Detection: The strategy first identifies significant swing highs and swing lows. A swing high is confirmed only if it's higher than a specific number of bars to its left and right (defined by "Left Strength" and "Right Strength" in the settings). The same logic applies to swing lows, which must be lower than the bars around them. This filtering ensures only structurally important turning points are considered. 2. Defining the Trading Range: Once a new swing is confirmed, the strategy defines the most recent dealing range. If a new swing high forms, the range is drawn from the previous swing low up to this new high. This is considered a bullish leg. If a new swing low forms, the range is drawn from the previous swing high down to this new low. This is considered a bearish leg. 3. Fibonacci Retracement & Trade Setup: An automatic Fibonacci retracement tool is drawn over this newly defined dealing range. The 0.0 level is placed at the end of the move, and the 1.0 level is at the beginning. The strategy then prepares to enter a trade based on this range. 4. Trade Execution: Entry: A limit order is placed at a specific Fibonacci level within the range, waiting for the price to retrace. The default entry is the 0.618 level, but this can be changed in the settings. For a bullish leg, it places a LONG (Buy) order, anticipating that the price will bounce from the retracement level. For a bearish leg, it places a SHORT (Sell) order, anticipating that the price will be rejected from the retracement level. Stop Loss: The Stop Loss is automatically placed at the 1.0 level of the Fibonacci range. This is the point where the original trade idea is invalidated. Take Profit: The Take Profit is automatically placed at the 0.0 level of the Fibonacci range. This is the target at the end of the price leg. Key Features & Customization Automated Trade Logic: The entire process, from identifying the setup to placing the entry, stop loss, and take profit, is fully automated. Visual Aid: The script draws the swing points and the Fibonacci retracement on the chart, so you can visually confirm the setups the strategy is taking. Customizable Entry: You can change the "Entry Level" in the settings to test different Fibonacci levels, such as the Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) at 0.705. Toggle Visuals: You can turn the Fibonacci drawing on or off to keep your chart clean while still allowing the strategy to run in the background.

RED E Support & ResistanceThe “RED-E Support & Resistance” indicator is designed to assist traders in visualizing key levels of support and resistance on a chart by employing ATR (Average True Range) to create dynamic horizontal zones. This indicator automatically plots robust support and resistance bands that can help identify potential areas where price may reverse, consolidate, or react. These levels are particularly beneficial for traders who employ concepts like Smart Money analysis, as they illustrate zones where institutional trading activity might occur. How It Works: • The indicator uses ATR-based calculations to determine the placement of the support and resistance zones. This approach accounts for market volatility, making the zones adaptive to changing conditions. • The Zone Thickness parameter allows users to customize the width of the plotted zones, enhancing visibility and fitting them to their specific trading style. • The support and resistance zones extend horizontally across the chart, providing clear reference points for potential price reactions. Practical Application: • Trend Analysis: Identify areas of significant price resistance and support to understand potential turning points or trends in the market. • Risk Management: Use these zones to better inform stop-loss placements or set profit targets. • Confirmation Tool: Combine the indicator with other technical analysis tools for confirmation of potential trade entries or exits. Customization Options: • Change the colors of the support and resistance zones for better integration with different chart themes. • Adjust the ATR Length and Multiplier to fine-tune the sensitivity of the zones based on personal preferences and the characteristics of the asset being analyzed. Disclaimer: This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It is not intended to serve as investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument. Always perform your own research and consider consulting with a financial professional before making trading decisions.

Key Session LevelsKey Session Levels - Indicator Guide Created by: MecarderoAurum Why This Indicator Exists: An Overview The "Key Session Levels" indicator is a comprehensive tool for day traders that automatically plots the most critical price levels from the current premarket and the previous two full trading days. These levels are watched by countless traders and often act as significant areas of support and resistance. This indicator provides a clear, objective map of these key zones, helping traders anticipate potential turning points, identify areas of confluence, and make more informed trading decisions without having to manually draw and manage these lines every day. Features & How to Use Them This indicator plots several types of important historical levels on your chart. Each one is fully customizable. 1. Premarket Levels (PMH / PML) What they are: The highest (PMH) and lowest (PML) prices reached during the current day's premarket session (04:00 - 09:30 ET). Why they matter: The premarket high and low are the first significant levels established for the trading day. They often act as initial support or resistance once the market opens. How to use them: In the settings under "Premarket Levels," you can toggle the visibility of the PMH and PML, and customize their color, line style, and width. 2. Prior Day Levels (PDH / PDL / PDM / PDP) What they are: The key price points from the previous full trading day. PDH: Prior Day High PDL: Prior Day Low PDM: Prior Day Midpoint (the exact middle of the PDH and PDL) PDP: Prior Day Pivot (a classic pivot point calculation) Why they matter: These are often the most important levels for the current trading day. The market frequently tests the previous day's high and low. How to use them: Under the "Prior Day" settings, you can enable or disable each of these four levels and customize their appearance. 3. 2-Day Prior Levels (PDH2 / PDL2 / etc.) What they are: The same set of key levels (High, Low, Mid, Pivot) from two trading days ago. Why they matter: These levels can still be highly relevant, especially if the market is trading within a multi-day range or returning to test a significant prior level. How to use them: Under the "2-Day Prior" settings, you can customize the visibility and style of these levels. They are styled with more transparency by default to distinguish them from the more recent prior day's levels. 4. General Settings Days of History: This setting allows you to control how many past days of historical lines are kept on your chart. This is excellent for back-testing strategies and seeing how price has reacted to these levels in the past. Label Settings: You can customize the color and size of the on-chart labels (e.g., "PDH," "PML") for better visibility. Sample Strategy: The Key Level Rejection This strategy focuses on using the indicator's levels to identify potential reversals at key areas of support or resistance. Identify a Key Level: Watch as the price approaches a significant level plotted by the indicator, such as the Prior Day High (PDH) or the Premarket Low (PML). Look for Rejection: Do not trade simply because the price touches the level. Wait for a price action signal that confirms the level is holding. This could be a bearish engulfing candle or a shooting star pattern at a resistance level like PDH, or a bullish hammer or morning star pattern at a support level like PML. Entry: Once you see a clear rejection candle, enter a trade in the direction of the rejection. For a bearish rejection at the PDH, you would enter a short position. Stop-Loss: A logical place for a stop-loss is just above the high of the rejection candle (for a short trade) or just below the low of the rejection candle (for a long trade). This defines your risk clearly. Profit Target: Your first profit target could be the next key level plotted by the indicator. For example, if you shorted a rejection at the PDH, your first target might be the Premarket High (PMH) or the day's opening price.

Advanced ICT Theory - A-ICT📊 Advanced ICT Theory (A-ICT): The Institutional Manipulation Detector Are you tired of being the liquidity? Stop chasing shadows and start tracking the architects of price movement. This is not another lagging indicator. This is a complete framework for viewing the market through the lens of institutional traders. Advanced ICT Theory (A-ICT) is an all-in-one, military-grade analysis engine designed to decode the complex language of "Smart Money." It automates the core tenets of Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology, moving beyond simple patterns to build a dynamic, real-time narrative of market manipulation, liquidity engineering, and institutional order flow. AIT provides a living blueprint of the market, identifying high-probability zones, tracking structural shifts, and scoring the quality of setups with a sophisticated, multi-factor algorithm. This is your X-ray into the market's true intentions. 🔬 THE CORE ENGINE: DECODING THE THEORY & FORMULAS A-ICT is built upon a sophisticated, multi-layered logic system that interprets price action as a story of cause and effect. It does not guess; it confirms. Here is the foundational theory that drives the engine: 1. Market Structure: The Blueprint of Trend The script first establishes a deep understanding of the market's skeleton through multi-level pivot analysis. It uses ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow to identify significant swing points. Internal Structure (iBOS): Minor swings that show the short-term order flow. A break of internal structure is the first whisper of a potential shift. External Structure (eBOS): Major swing points that define the primary trend. A confirmed break of external structure is a powerful statement of trend continuation. AIT validates this with optional Volume Confirmation (volume > volumeSMA * 1.2) and Candle Confirmation to ensure the break is driven by institutional force, not just a random spike. Change of Character (CHoCH): This is the earthquake. A CHoCH occurs when a confirmed eBOS happens against the prevailing trend (e.g., a bearish eBOS in a clear uptrend). A-ICT flags this immediately, as it is the strongest signal that the primary trend is under threat of reversal. 2. Liquidity Engineering: The Fuel of the Market Institutions don't buy into strength; they buy into weakness. They need liquidity. A-ICT maps these liquidity pools with forensic precision: Buyside & Sellside Liquidity (BSL/SSL): Using ta.highest and ta.lowest, AIT identifies recent highs and lows where clusters of stop-loss orders (liquidity) are resting. These are institutional targets. Liquidity Sweeps: This is the "manipulation" part of the detector. AIT has a specific formula to detect a sweep: high > bsl and close < bsl . This signifies that institutions pushed price just high enough to trigger buy-stops before aggressively selling—a classic "stop hunt." This event dramatically increases the quality score of subsequent patterns. 3. The Element Lifecycle: From Potential to Power This is the revolutionary heart of A-ICT. Zones are not static; they have a lifecycle. AIT tracks this with its dynamic classification engine. Phase 1: PENDING (Yellow): The script identifies a potential zone of interest based on a specific candle formation (a "displacement"). It is marked as "Pending" because its true nature is unknown. It is a question. Phase 2: CLASSIFICATION: After the zone is created, AIT watches what happens next. The zone's identity is defined by its actions: ORDER BLOCK (Blue): The highest-grade element. A zone is classified as an Order Block if it directly causes a Break of Structure (BOS) . This is the footprint of institutions entering the market with enough force to validate the new trend direction. TRAP ZONE (Orange): A zone is classified as a Trap Zone if it is directly involved in a Liquidity Sweep . This indicates the zone was used to engineer liquidity, setting a "trap" for retail traders before a reversal. REVERSAL / S&R ZONE (Green): If a zone is not powerful enough to cause a BOS or a major sweep, but still serves as a pivot point, it's classified as a general support/resistance or reversal zone. 4. Market Inefficiencies: Gaps in the Matrix Fair Value Gaps (FVG): AIT detects FVGs—a 3-bar pattern indicating an imbalance—with a strict formula: low > high (for a bullish FVG) and gapSize > atr14 * 0.5. This ensures only significant, volatile gaps are shown. An FVG co-located with an Order Block is a high-confluence setup. 5. Premium & Discount: The Law of Value Institutions buy at wholesale (Discount) and sell at retail (Premium). AIT uses a pdLookback to define the current dealing range and divides it into three zones: Premium (sell zone), Discount (buy zone), and Equilibrium. An element's quality score is massively boosted if it aligns with this principle (e.g., a bullish Order Block in a Discount zone). ⚙️ THE CONTROL PANEL: A COMPLETE GUIDE TO THE INPUTS MENU Every setting is a lever, allowing you to tune the AIT engine to your exact specifications. Master these to unlock the script's full potential. 🎯 A-ICT Detection Engine Min Displacement Candles: Controls the sensitivity of element detection. How it works: It defines the number of subsequent candles that must be "inside" a large parent candle. Best practice: Use 2-3 for a balanced view on most timeframes. A higher number (4-5) will find only major, more significant zones, ideal for swing trading. A lower number (1) is highly sensitive, suitable for scalping. Mitigation Method: Defines when a zone is considered "used up" or mitigated. How it works: Cross triggers as soon as price touches the zone's boundary. Close requires a candle to fully close beyond it. Best practice: Cross is more responsive for fast-moving markets. Close is more conservative and helps filter out fake-outs caused by wicks, making it safer for confirmations. Min Element Size (ATR): A crucial noise filter. How it works: It requires a detected zone to be at least this multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). Best practice: Keep this around 0.5. If you see too many tiny, irrelevant zones, increase this value to 0.8 or 1.0. If you feel the script is missing smaller but valid zones, decrease it to 0.3. Age Threshold & Pending Timeout: These manage visual clutter. How they work: Age Threshold removes old, mitigated elements after a set number of bars. Pending Timeout removes a "Pending" element if it isn't classified within a certain window. Best practice: The default settings are optimized. If your chart feels cluttered, reduce the Age Threshold. If pending zones disappear too quickly, increase the Pending Timeout. Min Quality Threshold: Your primary visual filter. How it works: It hides all elements (boxes, lines, labels) that do not meet this minimum quality score (0-100). Best practice: Start with the default 30. To see only A- or B-grade setups, increase this to 60 or 70 for an exceptionally clean, high-probability view. 🏗️ Market Structure Lookbacks (Internal, External, Major): These define the sensitivity of the trend analysis. How they work: They set the number of bars to the left and right for pivot detection. Best practice: Use smaller values for Internal (e.g., 3) to see minor structure and larger values for External (e.g., 10-15) to map the main trend. For a macro, long-term view, increase the Major Swing Lookback. Require Volume/Candle Confirmation: Toggles for quality control on BOS/CHoCH signals. Best practice: It is highly recommended to keep these enabled. Disabling them will result in more structure signals, but many will be false alarms. They are your filter against market noise. ... (Continue this detailed breakdown for every single input group: Display Configuration, Zones Style, Levels Appearance, Colors, Dashboards, MTF, Liquidity, Premium/Discount, Sessions, and IPDA). 📊 THE INTELLIGENCE DASHBOARDS: YOUR COMMAND CENTER The dashboards synthesize all the complex analysis into a simple, actionable intelligence briefing. Main Dashboard (Bottom Right) ICT Metrics & Breakdown: This is your statistical overview. Total Elements shows how much structure the script is tracking. High Quality instantly tells you if there are any A/B grade setups nearby. Unmitigated vs. Mitigated shows the balance of fresh opportunities versus resolved price action. The breakdown by Order Blocks, Trap Zones, etc., gives you a quick read on the market's recent character. Structure & Market Context: This is your core bias. Order Flow tells you the current script-determined trend. Last BOS shows you the most recent structural event. CHoCH Active is a critical warning. HTF Bias shows if you are aligned with the higher timeframe—the checkmark (✓) for alignment is one of the most important confluence factors. Smart Money Flow: A volume-based sentiment gauge. Net Flow shows the raw buying vs. selling pressure, while the Bias provides an interpretation (e.g., "STRONG BULLISH FLOW"). Key Guide (Large Dashboard only): A built-in legend so you never have to guess. It defines every pattern, structure type, and special level visually. 📖 Narrative Dashboard (Bottom Left) This is the "story" of the market, updated in real-time. It's designed to build your trading thesis. Recent Elements Table: A live list of the most recent, high-quality setups. It displays the Type , its Narrative Role (e.g., "Bullish OB caused BOS"), its raw Quality percentage, and its final Trade Score grade. This is your at-a-glance opportunity scanner. Market Narrative Section: This is the soul of A-ICT. It combines all data points into a human-readable story: 📍 Current Phase: Tells you if you are in a high-volatility Killzone or a consolidation phase like the Asian Range. 🎯 Bias & Alignment: Your primary direction, with a clear indicator of HTF alignment or conflict. 🔗 Events: A causal sequence of recent events, like "💧 Sell-side liquidity swept → 📊 Bullish BOS → 🎯 Active Order Block". 🎯 Next Expectation: The script's logical conclusion. It provides a specific, forward-looking hypothesis, such as "📉 Pullback expected to bullish OB at 1.2345 before continuation up." 🎨 READING THE BATTLEFIELD: A VISUAL INTERPRETATION GUIDE Every color and line is a piece of information. Learn to read them together to see the full picture. The Core Zones (Boxes): Blue Box (Order Block): Highest probability zone for trend continuation. Look for entries here. Orange Box (Trap Zone): A manipulation footprint. Expect a potential reversal after price interacts with this zone. Green Box (Reversal/S&R): A standard pivot area. A good reference point but requires more confluence. Purple Box (FVG): A market imbalance. Acts as a magnet for price. An FVG inside an Order Block is an A+ confluence. The Structural Lines: Green/Red Line (eBOS): Confirms the trend direction. A break above the green line is bullish; a break below the red line is bearish. Thick Orange Line (CHoCH): WARNING. The previous trend is now in question. The market character has changed. Blue/Red Lines (BSL/SSL): Liquidity targets. Expect price to gravitate towards these lines. A dotted line with a checkmark (✓) means the liquidity has been "swept" or "purged." How to Synthesize: The magic is in the confluence. A perfect setup might look like this: Price sweeps below a red SSL line , enters a green Discount Zone during the NY Killzone , and forms a blue Order Block which then causes a green eBOS . This sequence, visible at a glance, is the story of a high-probability long setup. 🔧 THE ARCHITECT'S VISION: THE DEVELOPMENT JOURNEY A-ICT was forged from the frustration of using lagging indicators in a market that is forward-looking. Traditional tools are reactive; they tell you what happened. The vision for A-ICT was to create a proactive engine that could anticipate institutional behavior by understanding their objectives: liquidity and efficiency. The development process was centered on creating a "lifecycle" for price patterns—the idea that a zone's true meaning is only revealed by its consequence. This led to the post-breakout classification system and the narrative-building engine. It's designed not just to show you patterns, but to tell you their story. ⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER & BEST PRACTICES Advanced ICT Theory (A-ICT) is a professional-grade analytical tool and does not provide financial advice or direct buy/sell signals. Its analysis is based on historical price action and probabilities. All forms of trading involve substantial risk. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use this tool as part of a comprehensive trading plan that includes your own analysis and a robust risk management strategy. Do not trade based on this indicator alone. 観の目つよく、見の目よわく "Kan no me tsuyoku, ken no me yowaku" — Miyamoto Musashi, The Book of Five Rings English: "Perceive that which cannot be seen with the eye." — Dskyz, Trade with insight.
