KillZones Hunt + Sessions [TradingFinder] Alert & Volume Ranges🟣 Introduction
🔵 Session
Financial markets are divided into various time segments, each with its own characteristics and activity levels. These segments are called sessions, and they are active at different times of the day.
The most important active sessions in financial markets are :
1. Asian Session
2. European Session
3. New York Session
The timing of these major sessions based on the UTC time zone is as follows :
1. Asian Session: 23:00 to 06:00
2. European Session: 07:00 to 16:30
3. New York Session: 13:00 to 22:00
Note
To avoid overlap between sessions and interference in kill zones, we have adjusted the session timings as follows :
• Asian Session: 23:00 to 06:00
• European Session: 07:00 to 14:25
• New York Session: 14:30 to 22:55
🔵 Kill Zones
Kill zones are parts of a session where trader activity is higher than usual. During these periods, trading volume increases and price fluctuations are more intense.
The timing of the major kill zones based on the UTC time zone is as follows :
• Asian Kill Zone: 23:00 to 03:55
• European Kill Zone: 07:00 to 09:55
• New York Morning Kill Zone: 14:30 to 16:55
• New York Evening Kill Zone: 19:30 to 20:55
This indicator focuses on tracking the kill zone and its range. For example, once a kill zone ends, the high and low formed during it remain unchanged.
If the price reaches the high or low of the kill zone while the session is still active, the corresponding line is not drawn any further. Based on this information, various strategies can be developed, and the most important ones are discussed below.
🟣 How to Use
There are three main ways to trade based on the kill zone :
• Kill Zone Hunt
• Breakout and Pullback to Kill Zone
• Trading in the Trend of the Kill Zone
🔵 Kill Zone Hunt
According to this strategy, once the kill zone ends and its high and low lines no longer change, if the price reaches one of these lines within the same session and is strongly rejected, a trade can be entered.
🔵 Breakout and Pullback to Kill Zone
According to this strategy, once the kill zone ends and its high and low lines no longer change, if the price breaks one of these lines strongly within the same session, a trade can be entered on the pullback to that level.
Trading in the Trend of the Kill Zone
We know that kill zones are areas where high-volume trading occurs and powerful trends form. Therefore, trades can be made in the direction of the trend. For example, when an upward trend dominates this area, you can enter a buy trade when the price reaches a demand order block.
🟣 Features
🔵 Alerts
You can set alerts to be notified when the price hits the high or low lines of the kill zone.
🔵 More Information
By enabling this feature, you can view information such as the time and trading volume within the kill zone. This allows you to compare the trading volume with the same period on the previous day or other kill zones.
🟣 Settings
Through the settings, you have access to the following options :
• Show or hide additional information
• Enable or disable alerts
• Show or hide sessions
• Show or hide kill zones
• Set preferred colors for displaying sessions
• Customize the time range of sessions
• Customize the time range of kill zones

Sessions Lite [TradingFinder] New York, London, Asia, NYSE Forex🔵 Introduction
A trading session is one of the basic concepts in the financial market that refers to specific time periods. In fact, a session means hours during the day and night, during which traders in a certain part of the world conduct their transactions.
Although the "Forex" and "CFDs" market is open 24 hours a day and it is possible to trade in it, but in some hours the activity in this market decreases so much that many traders prefer not to trade and only watch the market. On the other hand, there are specific times when the market is very busy and dynamic, and many traders tend to trade during these hours of the day and night.
Trading sessions are usually divided into three main categories, which are "Asian", "European" and "North American" sessions. These trading sessions are also called the "Tokyo", "London" and "New York" sessions, respectively. But they also categorized these sessions in more detailed ways such as "Sydney session", "Shanghai session" or "NYSE session".
🔵 Tokyo trading session (Asian session)
After the weekend that happens on Saturday and Sunday, the Forex market starts with the Asian session. In this continent, most of the transactions are done in the Tokyo session, and for this reason, it is usually called the Asian session or the Tokyo session. However, other countries such as Australia, China and Singapore also do a lot of trading in this session.
The Tokyo session has a lower volume of transactions compared to the London and New York sessions, and therefore the liquidity is lower. In this session, most of the Forex currency pairs move in a price range. For this reason, different people use the ups and downs with the trading strategy in the range and get profit.
The low liquidity of the Tokyo session means that trading spreads are also higher during these hours. Besides, most of the transactions of this session are done in the early hours and at the same time as the planned news release.
In the Tokyo or Asia session, the best currency pairs to trade are the "Japanese yen", the "Australian dollar", and the "New Zealand dollar".
"Nikkei" index is also a good option for trading. If you trade in the Tokyo session, you should also be aware of the release of economic news and data from Australian, New Zealand and Japanese financial institutions.
🔵 London trading session (European session)
After the Asian session, it is time for the European session. In this period of time, transactions are very large and many European markets are involved. However, the European session is usually known as the London session.
Because of its specific time zone, London is not only known as the Forex trading center in Europe, but it is also known as the Forex trading center in the world. The London session overlaps with two other major trading sessions in the world, Asia and America. This means that most of the Forex transactions are done in this session. According to the latest statistics, 32% of Forex transactions are related to the London session, which shows that about a third of the activity performed in Forex takes place during this period.
This will increase the volume of Forex transactions and increase liquidity. An event that causes the spread of transactions to decrease. Of course, high liquidity also leads to greater volatility, which is desirable for many traders.
In the European session, the pound and euro currencies and the "DAX", "FTSE100", and "CAC40" indices are known as the best tradable assets. Also, traders of this session should pay attention to the news and data published by the "European Central Bank" and the "Bank of England". The news of countries like Germany, France and Italy are also very important.
🔵 American trading session (New York session)
When the New York session begins, several hours have passed since the end of the Tokyo session, but the European session is in the middle. In this session, they usually affect the financial activities carried out in America, but they also affect other countries such as Canada, Mexico and several South American countries.
The "US dollar" and stock indices such as "S&P", "Dow Jones" and "Nasdaq" are the most important assets that are traded in this session.
The early hours of the American session have a lot of liquidity and volatility due to the overlap with the European session, but with the end of the European session, the activity in the American session also decreases.
You can trade all major Forex currency pairs in the New York trading session. In this session, the "Federal Reserve", as the most important central bank in the world, is the institution that you should pay attention to its news and data.
The trading session indicator is an analytical tool in the financial markets that is used to display and analyze specific trading periods during a day. These indicators are generally useful for determining support and resistance levels during any trading session and for detecting different trading patterns.
For example, usually these indicators display the open and close price levels, the highest and lowest prices during a trading session. Also, you may notice various price patterns such as price channels, price phase phases and market trend changes during different trading sessions using these indicators.
🔵 cause of construction
In particular, the session light indicator version is designed and built for those traders who use many different tools on their chart at the same time. These traders can include "Volume Traders", "ICT traders", "Day Traders" and... These individuals can use "Session Lite" without disturbing the display of their other trading tools such as "Order Blocks", "Liquidity", "Zigzag", "FVG" etc.
But in general, there are several reasons for making tools like trading session indicators in financial markets, some of which include the following :
1. Analysis of specific time frames : Some traders and investors like to consider specific time frames for price analysis and review. For example, analyzing price changes during each trading session can help analyze trading patterns and identify trading opportunities.
2. Recognize different price patterns : Different price patterns may be observed during trading sessions. Trading session indicators can help to make better trading decisions by analyzing these patterns and their strengths and weaknesses.
3. Identifying Support and Resistance Levels : These tools may help to identify support and resistance levels during any trading session which can be helpful in deciding whether to enter or exit the market.
🔵 How to use
The Session Lite indicator displays 8 sessions by default. Asia session, Sydney session, Tokyo session, Shanghai session, Europe session, London session, New York session and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) session are the sessions that are displayed.
You can activate or deactivate the display of each session by using the tick button next to the name of each session.
Two gray vertical dashes are also displayed by default, which indicate the beginning of the European session and the New York session. This feature is available for all sessions, but it is enabled by default only for these two sessions, and you can activate it for the rest of the session. You can enable or disable the display of this line by using the Start Session tick key.
Likewise, the information table is displayed by default, which includes the open or closed information of each session and the start and end times of each session. These timings are based on the UTC time zone.
Accordingly, the schedule of trading sessions is as follows :
Asia session from 23:00 to 06:00
Sydney session from 23:00 to 05:00
Tokyo session from 00:00 to 00:06
Shanghai session from 01:30 to 06:57
European session from 07:00 to 16:30
London session from 08:00 to 16:30
New York session from 13:00 to 22:00
New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) session from 14:30 to T 22:00
Important note : the beginning of the European session coincides with the opening of the Frankfurt market.
🔵 Settings
• In the settings section, there are customization capabilities according to the type of use of each user. The settings related to showing or not showing the box of each session, the start indicator of each session, setting the start and end time of the session and choosing the desired color to display each session are among the things that can be set from this section.
• At the end of the settings, you will see the "Info Table" option; By disabling this option, the "sessions" clock table displayed on the upper right side will be disabled.
Seasonal Tendencies - SMC IndicatorsA Seasonal Tendency refers to a historical price action behaviour that tends to repeat during specific times of the year, month over month.
It's a roadmap to navigate price action on the daily chart to help determine the medium to long-term bias.
Seasonal Tendencies are NOT an exact prediction of future price action but rather serve as a guideline for spotting high-probability opportunities when combined with other elements of SMC Price Action analysis, such as Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, etc...
The Seasonal Tendencies Indicator has been tested to match what ICT has taught in his lectures. It can be applied to any Market or Asset. However, it's limited by the maximum number of years available on tradingview.
Traders can use this Seasonal Tendencies indicator to support their already existing analysis as an added confirmation tool. This indicator should not be used as a main reason to enter a trade idea.
The Seasonal Tendencies Indicator can be used in 2 ways:
1) To look for potential points of long-term reversals during specific times of the year.
2) To look for confirmation and align with an existing long-term trend.
So how does it work?
The Seasonal Tendencies Indicator takes the averages of the last 30, 10, and 5 years' prices by default and compares them to the current year's price action (Green Line).
However, the number of years chosen for the averages can be modified in the indicator's setting.
When looking at the historical price action lines, generally, the price tends to make the lows and highs during specific times of the year.
Note that we should not look at the exact dates these lows and highs form, but we take time periods conceptually instead.
In the example below, the SP500 5-year average made the low on 14 March, and the SP500 10-year average made the low on 23 March.
This gives us the idea that "generally" SP500 makes the low of the year around the 2nd to 3rd week of March every year.
So, IF the trader's analysis was pointing out that SP500 is Bullish, then we use the information that we derived from the Seasonal Tendencies Indicator to look for long setups around the 2nd to 3rd week of March for medium to long-term swing trades.
The Seasonal Tendencies Indicator can also be useful for day traders as it helps support their daily bias to look for trades within the direction of the higher timeframe trend.
How do we measure the strength of the Seasonal Tendencies?
When using the Seasonal Tendencies Indicator, it's important to look for periods where the averages converge and get closer to each other. This usually indicates that during those specific periods, there is a high probability for the price to behave in a certain way.
So the closer the averages are to each other, the more likely the price would respect the Seasonal Tendencies.
Bonus Feature
Premium Discount Range
As a bonus feature, split the Seasonal Tendencies Indicator's Range into 4 quarters to indicate when the price is at a Premium (above the 50% level in Red) and when the price is at a Discount (below the 50% level in blue).
Each Premium and Discount range is also split into 2 halves.
Those levels can also be used to identify potential turning points when comparing the Current Year's price positioning in the Yearly Range to historical price action.
As you can see from the example below, most major turning points happen at around key price levels.
EXOFADEEXOFADE is an incredible trading indicator designed help give traders a visual clue of price momentum by combining Linear regression calculations with volume.
Overview:
ExoFade is a unique and dynamic trading indicator designed for both beginner and professional traders. At its core, it uses a sophisticated blend of multiple linear regression analysis, incorporating price, time, and volume-weighted moving average (VWMA) to predict potential price movements. By analyzing these key factors, EXOFade offers an innovative approach to understanding market trends and identifying trade opportunities.
Why It Works:
ExoFade works by calculating a regression line that adapts to market conditions, factoring in both price trends and trading volumes. This approach provides a more nuanced view of market momentum, going beyond traditional price-only indicators. The inclusion of time as a variable offers unique insights into market dynamics, making ExoFade a valuable tool for various trading strategies.
Key Features to Look Out For:
Regression Line: The heart of ExoFade, offering visual cues about the market's direction.
ATR-Based Fade Levels: Utilizes Average True Range (ATR) to set dynamic levels that signal potential reversals or continuation. The indicator comes with three fade levels, which are described below
Alert Conditions: You can set up for alerts for when any of the fade levels have been been reached, indicating potential entry points.
What Are Fade Levels And How To Use The Enter Trades:
The exofade line always moves with price, this indicates that the current volume is moving in the same direction.
When you see the exofade start to move ahead of price. For example, in an Uptrend, if price stops making new highs and you see the exofade line continue moving up ahead of price as price stagnates, this is the first time that you should be expecting pull back or reversal. When the line starts to visibly curve, this when you want to enter the trade.
Sometimes, the exofade line will move just a little bit ahead of price, and sometimes it will move a clear distance ahead of price.
From my experience, the further ahead it moves from price without price keeping up, the higher the probability of a pullback or reversal.
The actual pullback then starts when the exofade line starts to curve, which signifies the start if the actual pullback.
Since we cannot sit and watch for when the line has either moved further ahead enough or started to curve, thats why i figured to use ATR as the best way to measure the distance the exofade line moves ahead of price and the ATR also happens to measure Volatility, which makes it a perfect match.
From forward testing this for months, i have found the pullbacks typically start when the exofade line has moved ahead of price by atleast 2 ATR's. A distance of 2 ATR and above are the ones i consider the best setups. This also marks the point for your stop loss, since 2 ATR is generally used stoploss level.
To catch and sell a pullback in an uptrend, you can set alert for one or both of these alerts
Fade Level 2 abv price - This alert will trigger once Exofade line reached 2 ATR ABOVE price (Just means it has reached 2 atr, dosent mean it has started curving yet)
Curve lvl 2 - SELL - This alert means the exofade line has started to curve at 2 ATR
To buy pullbacks in a downtrend you set the opposite alerts of the one above for curve below price
There are also same alerts for level 3 as well, which is 2.5 ATR
IMPORTANT NOTES - DONT SKIP THIS
For daily and intra-day swings - Use this on 1hr trend upwards - The exofade line much slower on higher timeframe, so when you get a curve on a high time frame, like the 4HR or Daily timeframe, those are excellent signals
For scalpers trading 1hr below - The exofade moves faster on lower timeframes, so more caution should be used with these on lower timeframes , you this with other confluences like a good momentum oscillator oversold/overbought regions StochRSI, MACD etc
EXTRA TIPS
- Since the curve forms slower on higher time frames, it means getting a curve the on daily and weekly chart can help in your trend analysis to detect early signs of potential trend reversals
-I typically pair this with my customized version of Nadaraya watsons envelope ( a free indicator on tradingview) It will further improve your entry and winrate. Biggest advantage is for setting a profit target. In a buy trade for example, you buy the curve below price and set your profit target for the top band of the nadaraya watson envelope. Very efficient for scalping
- Unique areas were you want to pay attention to the exofade is when price enters points of interest, this depending on your trading style could be a
-FVG - fair value gaps
-Order blocks
- Supply / Demand areas
-Volume profile Value area High and Value area Low
The are two scenarios i would like you to be cautious of
1. As with every indicator and strategy, i most definitely wouldn't use this during high impact news.
2. If price is trending very strongly in one direction only, such that even barely gives any decent pull backs at all. Most especially if that strong push is happening between the 4hr to Daily time frame. Do not attempt to counter those trends unless you know what you are doing. Its not advisable.
Instead i'll recommend using the Exofade to catch an entry in the direction of the trade for a continuation.
And Lastly
Since this indicator uses VOLUME data as part of its calculations. It will not work on any pairs that tradingview does not provide volume data for, like Gold. But it will work normally on Gold Futures, since that has volume data
Premium Dashboard [TFO]The purpose of this indicator is to serve as a scanner/dashboard for several symbols across multiple timeframes. At the time of release, the scanner looks for the following criteria on all selected timeframes:
- Whether price is in a Fair Value Gap (FVG)
- Whether price is in an Order Block (OB)
- Current Market Structure
- Nearest Liquidity Pivots
- Proximity to said Liquidity Pivots
For FVGs, the user selects a Displacement Strength to validate FVGs from the selected timeframes; larger values require greater displacement. The table will indicate whether price is presently trading in a valid bullish FVG, bearish FVG, or none.
With OBs, the user selects a similar Displacement Strength to validate OBs from the selected timeframes. Again, larger values require greater displacement to validate an OB. The table will indicate whether price is presently trading in a bullish OB, bearish OB, or none.
For Market Structure, the table will indicate whether the current structure is bullish or bearish on each respective timeframe. A pivot strength parameter is used to determine which swing highs and swing lows warrant valid Market Structure Shifts (reversals) or Breaks of Structure (continuations).
The Liquidity section of the dashboard displays the nearest Buyside and Sellside Liquidity (major highs and lows) from each respective timeframe. A similar pivot strength parameter is used to determine how "strong" the highs and lows must be in order to be considered valid.
The Premium / Discount section offers an alternative view of the nearest Liquidity Pivots, where it will instead display a percent value to describe how close price is to Buyside or Sellside Liquidity. Values approaching 100% imply price is trading close to the nearest Buyside Liquidity, while values approaching 0% imply price is trading close to Sellside Liquidity.
Users can also choose to show any of the above features on their current chart: FVGs, OBs, cumulative Market Structure, and Liquidity, all from the various selected timeframes.
Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal) [LuxAlgo]The Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal) indicator is an experimental take on classical market structure, whereas fractal patterns are used for their construction instead of swing points.
Compared to utilizing swing points for highlighting market structure like our Smart Money Concepts indicator , fractal-based market structure can appear as more adaptive, however, it can also be more restrictive when it comes to returning swing points which can cause the indicator to miss reversals in some cases.
If enabled from within the settings, users can see support and resistance levels returned from the detected market structure with breakouts highlighted on the chart. Alongside this feature, an additional dashboard showing the structure to fractal structure percentage is also provided.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Length of the fractal patterns to detect.
🔹 Style
Bullish Structures: Show bullish structures.
Bearish Structures: Show bullish structures.
Support: Show support levels.
Resistance: Show resistance levels.
🔹 Dashboard
Show Dashboard: Show structure to fractal percentage dashboard on the chart.
Location: Location of the dashboard on the chart.
Size: Dashboard size.
🔶 USAGE
Market structure is commonly used to determine trend direction by using price positions relative to prior swing points. Using fractal patterns to determine market structure can allow users to obtain shorter, more frequent structure labels.
Market structure is commonly classified as follows:
Change of Character (CHoCH), also referred to as Market Structure Shift (MSS)
Break of Structure (BOS), also referred to as Market Structure Break (MSB)
Change of Characters indicate a shift in the market trend, confirming trend reversals. Break of Structures on the other hand occur once a trend is already determined, confirming new higher highs/lower lows.
Using higher length values allow users to detect longer-term fractals, thus highlighting longer-term market structures. The image above detects fractal patterns made of 7 candles, even if the increment is only of 2 bars this significantly reduces the amount of detected market structure labels.
The result obtained by utilizing fractals and higher settings can be a more dynamic view of market structure, however, as seen in the image above this can introduce very significant delay compared to utilizing pure swing points.
🔹 Support/Resistance
The indicator also returns support/resistance levels constructed from the market structure, these levels are obtained similarly to order blocks, finding the minimum on the interval of a bullish market structure and the maximum of a bearish market structure.
Price reaching a support/resistance level can be expected to bounce from it. Once a level is broken, the support/resistance level will no longer extend, and a circle will be displayed highlighting the break.
While utilizing this script for fractal-based market structure, these levels can be useful to ensure all swing points are still considered by the user with the possibility of the indicator missing reversals due to its calculation not being based on swing points themselves.
🔹 Dashboard
The dashboard reports the structure to fractal percentage, that is the amount of bullish/bearish market structures relative to the total amount of detected bullish/bearish fractal patterns.
This allows us to see how often a detected fractal pattern is used to display a market structure.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Fractals
In the context of technical analysis, Fractals refer to specific patterns that exhibit self-similarity at different scales or timeframes.
The most commonly known fractal pattern consists of a consecutive sequence of candles (more commonly 5), with the central candle being the lowest (in case of a bullish fractal) or highest (in case of a bearish fractal).
A bullish fractal has candles on the right side of the central candle with increasing lows, while candles on the left side have decreasing lows.
A bearish fractal has candles on the right side of the central candle with decreasing highs, while candles on the left side have increasing highs.

Mora's Compression IndicatorIntroducing Mora's Price Compression indicator.
One of the biggest challenges in trading strategies is to differentiate between zones in which price is consolidated (so called squeezed) and zones of price expansion. Zones of consolidation can indicate traders' indecision or the creation of order blocks, but regardless of their mechanism, most indicators behave differently in those areas as oppose to times when price is trending.
A traditional indicator of consolidation zones is the so call Squeeze, which combines Bollinger Bands and Keltner’s Channels.. although broadly used, its interpretation is not quite straightforward.
Here a new indicator is introduced to identify areas of consolidation or expansion based on current and historical volatility.
Ultimately we know the price is consolidated (current volatility) when it starts raging within a narrower band that we are use to see (Historical volatility), so the ratio of the current to historical volatility becomes a straightforward identification of consolidation zones and that is what this indicator provides.
The indicator is scaled such that values near zero mean price is compressed and values near 100 price is over-extended. The indicators is designed to allow different time-frames, while avoiding repainting.
Visualizing Displacement [TFO]An easy and basic way to visualize displacement (energetic moves) in single bars/candles. This is determined by comparing the bar range (either from high to low, or from open to close) to its standard deviation over some specified length. The strength parameter applies some multiple to the standard deviation, which can help to filter out only the strongest indications of potential displacement.
Displacement is a key concept in Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts, especially when anticipating potential changes in trend. Although it's fairly easy to see "displacement candles" with large ranges, the bar coloring in this script can help remind us of who is in control (buyers or sellers) based on what side is creating those energetic moves most recently. Once we see signs of displacement, we can then apply concepts like premium/discount, order blocks, optimal trade entries, etc. to look for reasonable trade opportunities in the direction of the current trend.
A lack of displacement can be just as telling - if an effort to displace through a key swing high/low has failed, it's possible that a reversal may be underway.

Sonarlab - MTF Imbalance/ FVGAn imbalance is created when the order block creates such impulsive volume in the market that it throws off the equilibrium between buyers and sellers, forming a gap. This is referred to as imbalance or FVG. These gaps act as a magnet for price to retrace to, in order to correct the disturbance in market equilibrium.
Imbalances = FVG
This image above shows you how an imbalance is created in the market using 3 candles. As we all know, candle sticks represent a specific time-range - for example: 1H. This means that inside 1 candle stick, there are 60 1 minute candle sticks resting. What I'm trying to say with this is that you get a totally different picture when you are on the lower timeframes. An imbalance can be overlooked, so it can be very helpful to have the multiple timeframe Imbalances on your screen, so you understand what is actually going on in the bigger picture.
Usage
Focused on combining with SMC:
When trading SMC, Imbalances can be great for POI's (point of interests) or using as targets in the market. Imbalances work like magnets in the market. When the market is imbalanced, it mostly wants to balance those gaps and can sometimes react perfectly from the area's. Besides that, it can really give you an idea who is in control at that moment.
Here you can see an example of an Imbalance when on the 1H timeframe - in the next picture below you can see the exact same imbalance, but then on the 3M. Now you understand why it can be overlooked?
So, imbalances/ FVG's:
- Increase probability of certain Point of Interests
- Can be a sign of strong interest in price areas
- Can be used as targets
- Can be used as POI's
What makes this Imbalance indicator different?
The Sonarlab MTF Imbalance indicator makes it possible to show up to 3 higher timeframes, which makes it easier to do your analysis and spot these areas when trading.
Price ImbalancePrice Imbalance, aka Fair value gap, Missing Price or Inefficiency are like blue foot prints of where price is most likely to visit before doing the next rally up or down. Knowing this is simple however pin pointing these spots can be nerve racking with this indicator you'll never have to worry about all the above mentioned.
How To Use The Price Imbalance Indicator
Load this indicator on your chart, and it will automatically print out a yellow box that's your Imbalance and you can find imbalance in every thing frame.
Which Of These Price Imbalance Is A Valid One To Use
For a Sell Bais the Imbalance with Order Blocks above and liquidity before it is a valid price imbalance. however you might want to take into consideration Market trend and confirmation too.
MTF High and Low FractionsMTF High and Low Fractions
Description
An experimental script that prints 1/3, 1/4 and 1/8 levels of the previous timeframe's high and low to the current timeframe. The idea is quite simple. It mirrors the the previous high and low with user selected levels. The default setting is the previous daily high and low but can be customized on user discretion.
New levels are printed after the close of the previous timeframe and open of the new timeframe (user's timeframe setting).
How To Use
Levels should not be used blindly. Levels can be used as confluence when aligned with high probability supply and demand zones, support, resistance, order blocks, and so on.
Swing High/Low Indicator w/ MACD and HTF EMA'sSwing High/Low Indicator w/ MACD and EMA Confirmations by KaizenTraderB
I designed this indicator to be used with a market structure break strategy.
It labels swing highs and lows that are confirmed by the MACD.
It also displays a higher timeframe Fast and Slow EMA to determine directional bias.
Also provides alerts that signal Swing Low breaks in downtrends and Swing High Breaks in uptrends.
It draws a horizontal line on the last Swing High and Low.
Display this indicator on your entry timeframe and choose your Higher Timeframe in settings.
You can also change lookback period for Swing Highs and Lows and EMA's.
When I use this I am looking for the Swing High/Low break in direction of HTF Trend
Then look for pullback between price level of break and areas of liquidity (wicks, order blocks, price congestion) for entry in direction of EMA trend.

MTF previous high and low quarter levelsDescription
An experimental script that prints quarter levels of the previous timeframe's high and low to the current timeframe. The idea is quite simple and is basically the Fibonacci pivoted on the previous high and low with quarter level settings (0,0.25,0.5,0.75,1 etc). The default setting is the previous daily high and low but can be customized on user discretion.
New quarter levels are printed after the close of the previous timeframe and open of the new timeframe (user's timeframe setting)
How To Use
Levels should not be used blindly. Levels can be used as confluence when aligned with high probability supply and demand zones, support, resistance, order blocks, and so on.
Credit to @HeWhoMustNotBeNamed for the Previous High/Low MTF indicator code and @mrbirman for the idea to put this together.
Liquidity RaidThe market always seeks liquidity. Liquidity rests above previous highs and below previous lows.
The script highlights the breach of a market structure high or low (W/D/4H/1H), and will alert you on the first fractal break in the opposite direction.
The idea is that the raid happens, and you are only alerted once a candle breaks a fractal and closes in the opposite direction.
When a signal is printed, it does not mean to enter immediately. It just means that there is a fractal break in the opposite direction, and that you will need to assess current price action and market structure for a potential trade on pullback.
You still need to take HTF directional bias, market structure, order blocks and imbalances into consideration.
The script is for trading on on smaller time frames (1/2/3/5m).
Fractal periods, lines and colours are all customizable

SMT - Smart Money Thursday Boxes
The Smart Money Trading Thursday - is a very specific trading system. You only trade it on a Thursday.
The script/indicator will color Thursdays as two boxes. If you just want one color, use same color for
both boxes. The boxes is there to indicate London/New York sessions.
SETTINGS
In the setting you find a numeric value as 1700-0400:5
The "5" indicate Thursday. You can change that if you prefer to color another specific day.
For example "4" would indicate Wednesday. And you can change the hours to fit your
sessions and trading style.
You can also use the 2 boxes on different days. If you for example would like to color up
London for Wednesday and Thursday. Then set hours to fit London session and adjust the
:5 to 4 on the 1st box and 5 on the 2nd.
HOW TO USE IT?
The Smart Money works in a way retail trading does not. Smart Money has an objective
to locate retail patterns, where there will be a lot of stop loss volume to be grabbed.
So when a retail trader see a setup like a "Double Top / Bottom". The Institutional
will see $$$ of dumb money, ready to be taken. The best moves happen on a Thursday
but if you are a skilled trader, you can see the move also occur on Wednesday or Friday.
The first thing that will happen, is that the Smart Money Breaks out of session. Meaning
they will leave the current weeks high/low range. To start collect negative contracts
of the retail volume.
When you see that happen. And you see a breakout that consist of 4 in a row 1 hour
chart candles. Then you have your first rule meet.
#1 Thursday breakout of current weeks high/low. And the move is a clean 4 hour move
as 4x H1 candles. The move can start within range. But must end clearly outside.
Visual Example:
#2 Next, we await an engulf at peak or near peak. That is where Institutional
may have problem to match any more contracts, and since they used their own
money to make this move. They must now mitigate orders, and return back to
the original retail pattern as most retail traders are now stopped out.
(Normally this is a long/clear candle out of range. they rarely go lower
then retail traders entry in the 1st push. This to not save any souls :)
#3 Price returns back to where the breakout from the retail happens.
You can now take your profit as a Smart Money Trader. Trading with less risk,
you can take profit of the return of that latest 4x H1 candle move. (Order
Block)
CONCLUSION
The best trade is when you can combine a retail pattern, followed by a
breakout which holds 4x 1 hour candles in the outbreak direction.
2nd best is when you have the 4x H1 breakout and really no clear retail
pattern. Still is the same game. Just not as clear as the one above.
Study the steps in this image and you see what to look after:
Good Luck with your trading!

OrderVibe indicator (Invite-Only)What it is
OrderVibe is a closed-source tool that visualizes market structure and volatility. It does not generate trade calls or manage orders. It draws zones/levels and optional alerts so traders can build their own process.
How it works - technical overview (conceptual)
* Trend regime filter (optional). Uses a sloped moving-average baseline to qualify trend and can require higher-timeframe (HTF) agreement.
* Momentum gate. A smoothed, rate-of-change–style momentum must align with the trend and exceed a configurable strength threshold.
* Volatility filter. ATR-based bounds suppress setups when volatility is unusually low or high for the instrument.
* Order-block zones (SMC element). Marks candidate OB zones derived from pre-break structure and uses them for confluence; zones invalidate on decisive closes.
* Support/Resistance. Clusters recent pivots into zones using ATR-relative distance, keeping the most relevant areas by recency/proximity.
* Informational entry label. Prints on controlled retests of active zones when trend/momentum/volatility conditions are met. Labels are informational only.
* Baseline stop suggestion. Suggests a protective distance based on ATR or recent swing, whichever is more conservative.
* ATR TP ladder (TP1-TP10). Optional multi-level targets built from ATR multiples; per-level toggles and alerts.
* Cooldown. After a label, a short cooldown prevents duplicates; invalid zones are removed automatically.
* Alerts (optional). New S/R zone, new OB zone, TP reached, and related events.
Why it’s not a simple mashup
* Dual qualification (trend + momentum) with optional HTF agreement.
* Volatility-aware suppression and ATR-normalized zone clustering.
* Integrated ATR TP ladder with per-level controls and cooldown in one workflow.
* Provides clear value beyond classic MA/ATR combinations by combining HTF-aware gating, ATR-relative zone clustering, and structured multi-target management.
How to use
* Works on any symbol; defaults are calibrated for intraday XAUUSD.
* Adjust ATR lengths/ranges and TP multipliers to your instrument.
* Hide unused TP levels; forward-test before using live.
* Educational analytics only; no signals or advice.
