Signal Architect Stop-Hunt

Stop-Hunt Proxy (Auto-Config) — Signal Architect™
What this script does

The Stop-Hunt Proxy is a market-structure and liquidity observation tool designed to highlight areas where stop-loss liquidity is likely raided and price fails to continue, often revealing absorption or auction failure behavior.

This script does not predict direction.
It does not authorize trades.
It identifies where intent failed, not what price must do next.

Think of it as a liquidity awareness layer, not a signal system.

Core behavior detected

The script combines several structural components:

Prior swing highs / lows
Areas where stop-loss orders often cluster.

ATR-scaled liquidity zones
Zones automatically expand or contract based on volatility.

Wick dominance
Long wicks relative to range suggest failed continuation.

Absorption proxies (BSP / VDP)
Volume-weighted pressure imbalance that may indicate opposition.

VWAP interaction (optional)
Reclaim or failure provides auction context.

When these align, the script highlights a stop-hunt (liquidity harvest) event.

Visual elements
Liquidity Zones (Clouds)

Zones appear above prior highs and below prior lows.

Thickness adapts automatically to current volatility.

These represent areas of potential stop-loss concentration.

Stop-Hunt Arrows

Arrows appear only when multiple filters align, such as:

Liquidity zone is raided

Wick structure shows rejection

Optional absorption behavior is present

Optional VWAP context confirms failure or reclaim

An arrow means:

Liquidity was taken and continuation failed.

It does NOT mean:

A reversal is guaranteed

A trade should be taken

Price must move in a certain direction

Suggested timeframes (IMPORTANT)

This script is most reliable on larger intraday and higher timeframes, where liquidity structure is clearer and noise is reduced.

⭐ Best-performing timeframes

30-minute

1-hour

2-hour

4-hour

Daily (context only)

Acceptable lower timeframes (with caution)

15-minute

5-minute (structure confirmation only)

Lower timeframes may produce more frequent signals, but also more noise and false context. The strength of this tool increases as timeframe increases.

Best use cases

This script is best used for:

Identifying liquidity harvest events

Detecting failed breakouts or breakdowns

Providing context for WAIT vs observe

Confirming auction failure before continuation elsewhere

Complementing:

VWAP / Anchored VWAP

Auction or market-state models

Volatility and participation analysis

It is especially useful during:

Range-to-rotational markets

Post-breakout failures

Areas of obvious prior highs/lows

What this script is NOT designed for

❌ Trade automation

❌ Buy/sell alerts

❌ Scalping systems

❌ Predictive forecasting

❌ Profit modeling

If you are looking for explicit trade instructions, this script is not intended for that purpose.

How to use it correctly

Observe the zone

Did price raid a prior high or low?

Observe the reaction

Did price fail to continue after taking liquidity?

Check the context

VWAP behavior

Volatility regime

Higher-timeframe structure

Assign NO immediate outcome

The correct response is often WAIT.

This tool helps answer:

Where was liquidity taken?

Did price accept or reject after?

Is intent being revealed or denied?

Design philosophy — Signal Architect™

Markets move through liquidity, not opinion.

This script exists to highlight where the market attempted something and failed, which is often more informative than where it succeeded.

Liquidity was taken. Intent was revealed. Outcome remains unassigned.
