FVG Maxing - Fair Value Gaps, Equilibrium, and Candle Patterns
What this script does
This open-source indicator highlights 3-candle fair value gaps (FVGs) on the active chart timeframe, draws their midpoint ("equilibrium") line, tracks when each gap is mitigated, and optionally marks simple candle patterns (engulfing and doji) for confluence. It is intended as an educational tool to study how price interacts with imbalances.
3-candle bullish and bearish FVG zones drawn as forward-extending boxes.
Equilibrium line at 50% of each gap.
Different styling for mitigated vs unmitigated gaps.
Compact statistics panel showing how many gaps are currently active and filled.
Optional overlays for bullish/bearish engulfing patterns and doji candles.
1. FVG logic (3-candle gaps)
The script focuses on a strict 3-candle definition of a fair value gap:
Three consecutive candles with the same body direction.
The wick of candle 3 is separated from the wick of candle 1 (no overlap).
A bullish gap is created when price moves up fast enough to leave a gap between candle 1 and 3. A bearish gap is the mirror case to the downside.
In Pine, the core detection looks like this:
// Three candles with the same body direction
bull_seq = close > open and close > open and close > open
bear_seq = close < open and close < open and close < open
// Wick gap between candle 1 and candle 3
bull_gap = bull_seq and low > high
bear_gap = bear_seq and high < low
// Final FVG flags
is_bull_fvg = bull_gap
is_bear_fvg = bear_gap
For each detected FVG:
Bullish FVG range: from high up to low (gap below current price).
Bearish FVG range: from low down to high (gap above current price).
Each zone is stored in a custom FVGData structure so it can be updated when price later trades back inside it.
2. Equilibrium line (0.5 of the gap)
Every FVG box gets an optional equilibrium line plotted at the midpoint between its top and bottom:
eq_level = (top + bottom) / 2.0
right_index = extend_boxes ? bar_index + extend_length_bars : bar_index
bx = box.new(bar_index - 2, top, right_index, bottom)
eq_ln = line.new(bar_index - 2, eq_level, right_index, eq_level)
line.set_style(eq_ln, line.style_dashed)
line.set_color(eq_ln, eq_color)
You can use this line as a neutral “fair value” reference inside the zone, or as a simple way to think in terms of premium/discount within each gap.
3. Mitigation rules and styling
Each FVG stays active until price trades back into the gap:
Bullish FVG is considered mitigated when the low touches or moves below the top of the gap.
Bearish FVG is considered mitigated when the high touches or moves above the bottom of the gap.
When that happens, the script:
Marks the internal FVGData entry as mitigated.
Softens the box fill and border colors.
Optionally updates the label text from "BULL EQ / BEAR EQ" to "BULL FILLED / BEAR FILLED".
Can hide mitigated zones almost completely if you only want to see unfilled imbalances.
This allows you to distinguish between current areas of interest and zones that have already been traded through.
4. Candle pattern overlays (engulfing and doji)
For additional confluence, the script can mark simple candle patterns on top of the FVG view:
Bullish engulfing — current candle body fully wraps the previous bearish body and is larger in size.
Bearish engulfing — current candle body fully wraps the previous bullish body and is larger in size.
Doji — candles where the real body is small relative to the full range (high–low).
The detection is based on basic body and range geometry:
curr_body = math.abs(close - open)
prev_body = math.abs(close - open )
curr_range = high - low
body_ratio = curr_range > 0 ? curr_body / curr_range : 1.0
bull_engulfing = close > open and close < open and open <= close and close >= open and curr_body > prev_body
bear_engulfing = close < open and close > open and open >= close and close <= open and curr_body > prev_body
is_doji = curr_range > 0 and body_ratio <= doji_body_ratio
On the chart, they appear as:
Small triangle markers below bullish engulfing candles.
Small triangle markers above bearish engulfing candles.
Small circles above doji candles.
All three overlays are optional and can be turned on or off and recolored in the CANDLE PATTERNS group of inputs.
5. Inputs overview
The script organizes settings into clear groups:
DISPLAY SETTINGS : Show bullish/bearish FVGs, show/hide mitigated zones, box extension length, box border width, and maximum number of boxes.
EQUILIBRIUM : Toggle equilibrium lines, color, and line width.
LABELS : Enable labels, choose whether to label unmitigated and/or mitigated zones, and select label size.
BULLISH COLORS / BEARISH COLORS : Separate fill and border colors for bullish and bearish gaps.
MITIGATED STYLE : Opacity used when a gap is marked as mitigated.
STATISTICS : Toggle the on-chart FVG statistics panel.
CANDLE PATTERNS : Show engulfing patterns, show dojis, colors, and the body-to-range threshold that defines a doji.
6. Statistics panel
An optional table in the corner of the chart summarizes the current state of all tracked gaps:
Total number of FVGs still being tracked.
Number of bullish vs bearish FVGs.
Number of unfilled vs mitigated FVGs.
Simple fill rate: percentage of tracked FVGs that have been marked as mitigated.
This can help you study how a particular market tends to treat gaps over time.
7. How you might use it (examples)
These are usage ideas only, not recommendations:
Study how often your symbol mitigates gaps and where inside the zone price tends to react.
Use higher-timeframe context and then refine entries near the equilibrium line on your trading timeframe.
Combine FVG zones with basic candle patterns (engulfing/doji) as an extra visual anchor, if that fits your process.

Breaker Blocks [TakingProphets]Breaker Blocks
Smart Money “breaker” zones automatically mapped on your chart.
This tool is designed for traders who use ICT / Smart Money concepts and want a clean, automated way to see breaker blocks form and evolve in real time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🔍 What this indicator does
The script automatically detects potential bullish and bearish breaker blocks after a market structure shift, then draws and maintains those zones on your chart:
-Plots bullish breaker blocks as green shaded zones.
-Plots bearish breaker blocks as red shaded zones.
-Optionally shows the 50% (midline) of each breaker for refinement.
-Keeps a rolling list of the most recent breakers and removes older ones to keep your chart clean.
-Optionally hides breakers once price closes through them (invalidation), so only active zones remain.
It’s built to work on any symbol and any timeframe. Lower timeframes will naturally generate more breakers; higher timeframes will show fewer, more significant zones.
Important: This script does not open, manage, or close trades for you. It only visualizes price zones that may be relevant to your own strategy and analysis.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🧠 Core logic (high level)
Under the hood, the indicator:
Uses an internal zigzag swing structure to track major pivot highs and lows.
Watches for a market structure shift (MSS):
Bullish MSS: price closes above a prior swing high.
Bearish MSS: price closes below a prior swing low.
Once an MSS is confirmed, it:
Locates the relevant impulse candle(s) that price traded through.
Defines the breaker block using the high/low (or body vs. wick, based on internal settings).
Draws a breaker box from that origin forward in time.
Each breaker is stored as an internal object with:
Direction (bullish or bearish)
Top and bottom prices
Visual boxes and an optional midline
On every new candle, all active breakers are updated:
Extended forward as new bars print.
Optionally invalidated and deleted if price closes back through the breaker in the opposite direction.
This gives you a dynamic map of which breaker blocks are still “respected” by price and which have failed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
⚙️ Key Inputs & Settings
All user-facing options are grouped under “Breaker Blocks” for a clean UI.
-Display Breaker Block
Toggle the visualization on/off without removing detection logic.
-Bullish Color / Bearish Color
Choose the fill color for bullish and bearish breaker zones.
-Show 50% Line
Plots a dashed line at the mid-point of each breaker block.
Helpful if you use the 50% level as a refinement or entry anchor.
-Max Visible
Limits how many of the most recent breaker blocks stay on the chart.
Older breakers are deleted once this limit is exceeded (keeps things clean and lightweight).
-Hide When Invalidated
If enabled:
Bullish breaker is hidden once price closes below its low.
Bearish breaker is hidden once price closes above its high.
If disabled, breakers remain visible even after those closes (for study / backtesting purposes).
These options allow you to run the tool in either a minimal, current-context only mode, or a more historical, educational mode.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🧭 How traders might use it
Some common ways traders may incorporate breaker blocks into their own plans:
As context zones around which to look for entries using their personal triggers.
As potential support/resistance areas after a shift in structure.
To visually separate active vs. invalidated zones instead of manually redrawing them.
In confluence with other SMC tools (FVGs, liquidity pools, PD arrays, etc.) and higher-timeframe bias.
This indicator is intended as a visual aid and works best when combined with a complete trading plan, risk management rules, and your own discretion.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator does not guarantee profits or specific outcomes.
It is provided for educational and informational purposes only.
Past price behavior around breaker blocks does not imply future results.
Always test any tool on a demo account or in a simulated environment before using it with real capital.
Trading involves risk, and you are solely responsible for your own decisions.
EMMTECH Doji Pullback StrategyThis is a trend-following pullback trading strategy for TradingView that identifies high-probability entry points when price temporarily moves against the main trend, then shows signs of reversal.
Core Concept
The indicator waits for the market to establish a trend (using the 100 EMA as a reference), then looks for a brief counter-trend pullback followed by a doji candle (indecision candle), which signals potential trend resumption.
Key Components
1. Trend Filter - 100 EMA
The orange line on your chart representing the 100-period Exponential Moving Average
Price above EMA = uptrend (look for buy setups)
Price below EMA = downtrend (look for sell setups)
2. Pullback Detection
The strategy counts consecutive candles moving against the trend:
In an uptrend: waits for 2+ consecutive red (bearish) candles
In a downtrend: waits for 2+ consecutive green (bullish) candles
3. Clean Candle Filter (Optional)
Filters out candles with large wicks to ensure strong directional moves:
Measures wick size relative to body
Default: wicks can't exceed 30% of body size
Ensures the pullback candles show genuine selling/buying pressure
4. Doji Confirmation
After the pullback, the strategy looks for a doji candle:
Small body relative to total range (default: ≤10% of candle range)
Represents indecision and potential exhaustion of the pullback
Often signals the trend is about to resume
Trade Signals
BUY Signal (Green triangle below bar):
Price is above 100 EMA ✓
2+ consecutive clean red candles ✓
Current candle is a doji ✓
SELL Signal (Red triangle above bar):
Price is below 100 EMA ✓
2+ consecutive clean green candles ✓
Current candle is a doji ✓
Risk Management Visualization
When a signal triggers, the indicator automatically draws:
Red line: Stop loss (placed at the low of the setup for buys, high for sells)
Green line: Target (1:1 risk-reward ratio) (Preferably set SL at recent low)
Teal box: Visual representation of the trade's risk-reward zone
Customizable Parameters
EMA Length: Default 100, adjust for faster/slower trend identification
Consecutive Candles: Minimum pullback candles required (default 2)
Wick Filter: Toggle clean candle requirement on/off
Wick Threshold: How much wick is acceptable (0.3 = 30%)
Doji Filter: Toggle doji requirement on/off
Doji Threshold: How small the body must be (0.1 = 10% of range)
Trading Logic
This strategy aims to catch the "sweet spot" where:
The main trend is still intact (EMA filter)
Weak hands have been shaken out (pullback)
Momentum is exhausting (doji appears)
Strong hands are likely to resume the trend
The background color (light green/red) helps you quickly identify which side of the trend you're on.
VIX/VXV Ratio (TitsNany)This script plots the VXV/VIX ratio, which compares medium-term volatility (90-day fear) to short-term volatility (30-day fear). When the ratio rises above key levels like 1.16 or 1.24, it signals that traders expect future stress, often preceding market pullbacks. When the ratio falls toward or below 1.0, short-term fear is spiking, which typically occurs during active selloffs or volatility events. In short, elevated readings warn of potential market drops ahead, while sharp declines in the ratio reflect panic already hitting the market.

Alt Trading: Asia Fibonacci Strategy
The Alt Trading: Asia Fibonacci Strategy is a session-anchored liquidity and Fibonacci engine designed for traders who want to systematically exploit the overnight Asia range instead of just marking it and guessing. It automatically profiles the Asia session to build a precise high–low liquidity band, then waits for clean sweeps of that range before it will even consider a setup forcing every idea to start from an objective liquidity event. Behind the scenes, a swing-based structure model defines the dominant leg and projects a true, directionally-aligned Fibonacci map, extending down for long scenarios and up for shorts so the premium/discount zones are never “mirrored” or visually inverted. Key extension bands are converted into forward-projected price zones, with dedicated entry corridors that only activate once price has both raided the Asia high/low and traded back into the correct Fibonacci pocket. A lightweight FVG engine tracks the most recent opposing Fair Value Gap and uses its invalidation as a final confirmation step, so your long setups only trigger when a bearish imbalance has been meaningfully reclaimed and vice versa for shorts. The result is a minimal but strict playbook: sweep the Asia range, respect the leg, touch the fib zone, invalidate the opposing FVG, then and only then print a clean visual marker on the chart. Transparent fib blocks, trigger FVG highlights, and compact “double-circle” text markers keep the chart readable even on lower timeframes, while still giving you a clear sense of where the setup originated and which liquidity it’s built around. All colors and visual layers are customizable, making it easy to blend the tool into your existing layout while preserving the core logic. Rather than trying to predict the entire session, Asia Fibonacci Strategy turns one of the most consistent structures in the market overnight range and its sweep into a repeatable, rule-driven framework for high-quality intraday entries.
Run Reversal Run Reversal is a multi-timeframe precision reversal tool designed to detect momentum shifts after a clean run of candles in one direction.

HTF Candles & Levels Visualizer - SRHTF Candles & Levels Visualizer is a clean higher‑timeframe visualization tool designed to complement any trading strategy by giving clear context of larger‑TF structure directly on your current chart. It plots the previous high and low for up to three user‑selectable timeframes, and draws them as extended levels with optional labels, making it easy to see where current price sits relative to key higher‑timeframe zones.
The script also renders compact proxy candles for each selected timeframe to the right of current price, so you can visually track HTF candle development without switching charts. Each HTF slot has independent settings: timeframe, color, number of displayed candles, and visibility toggles, along with global controls for line style, label size, candle spacing, and colors.
This tool does not generate trading signals; it focuses purely on multi‑timeframe context and market structure visualization to support your own entries, exits, and risk management.
The Rumer's Box Theory“The Rumer's Box Theory” is a visual trading indicator that allows traders to quickly identify the previous daily candle’s high and low across any timeframe. It displays a purple box spanning the previous day’s high to low, with a blue horizontal line marking the 50% midpoint for quick reference. The settings also provide options to extend the box and midpoint line to the left, giving traders flexibility in how the indicator appears on the chart.
Opposite Candle Zone Identifier Opposite Candle Zone Identifier
This indicator automatically detects candles that form potential Supply and Demand zones based on a simple but effective institutional pattern.
It identifies any central candle (bullish or bearish) that is surrounded by a defined number of opposite candles before and after, helping traders highlight key turning points, absorption zones, and areas of imbalance in the market.
How It Works
The script looks for two specific structures:
🔴 Bearish Central Candle Zone (Potential Supply)
The central candle is bearish
It is preceded by N bullish candles
It is followed by N bullish candles
This structure often appears at the origin of bearish impulses and can mark institutional Supply zones.
🟢 Bullish Central Candle Zone (Potential Demand)
The central candle is bullish
It is preceded by N bearish candles
It is followed by N bearish candles
This pattern frequently forms before strong bullish expansions and may indicate Demand zones or accumulation points.
Inputs
Number of candles before (left side of the central candle)
Number of candles after (right side of the central candle)
You can increase or decrease the sensitivity of the pattern according to your style or timeframe.
What It Draws
The indicator places:
A red label above bearish zone candles
A green label below bullish zone candles
These labels help you visually identify where institutional footprints and price imbalances may exist.
Best Use Cases
Supply & Demand mapping
Institutional trading / Smart Money Concepts
Swing points and zone detection
Filtering high-quality reversal points
Locating strong origin candles before price expansions
Notes
This script does not repaint, does not use future data, and works on all timeframes and all markets.

LVN Smart Liquidity📊 LVN SMART LIQUIDITY
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
🎯 OVERVIEW
LVN Smart Liquidity is an advanced Market Profile-based indicator that automatically identifies Low Volume Nodes (LVN) across multiple timeframes. Unlike traditional volume-based indicators, this tool uses TPO (Time Price Opportunity) calculations to detect price levels where minimal trading activity occurred, revealing potential breakout zones and rapid price movement areas.
These LVN zones often behave similarly to Fair Value Gaps (FVG) in Smart Money Concepts, representing "thin air" areas where price tends to move quickly with minimal resistance. The indicator provides dynamic zone management with an immunity period system to prevent premature zone closure.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
🔬 HOW IT WORKS
MARKET PROFILE TPO METHODOLOGY:
The indicator analyzes each higher timeframe period by:
1. Dividing the price range into 20 equal levels
2. Counting how many bars touched each level (TPO count)
3. Identifying levels with TPO counts below the threshold (default 30% of maximum)
4. Creating horizontal zones that extend until price touches them
MULTI-TIMEFRAME ANALYSIS:
• Supports up to 5 independent timeframes simultaneously
• Each timeframe generates its own LVN zones with unique colors
• Auto-timeframe mode adapts to your chart period
• Zones project from historical sessions onto current price action
SMART ZONE MANAGEMENT:
• Immunity Period: New zones are protected for N bars after creation (default 20)
• This prevents zones from disappearing immediately when price is already within them
• Zones extend right until price touches them, then stop extending
• Historical zones remain visible for reference (optional)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
💡 WHY LVN ZONES MATTER
Low Volume Nodes represent price levels where:
✓ Price spent minimal time (rejection zones)
✓ Few market participants were active
✓ Inefficient price discovery occurred
✓ Similar to Fair Value Gaps in ICT/SMC methodology
TRADING APPLICATIONS:
• Breakout Acceleration: Price moves rapidly through LVN zones
• Profit Targets: Place targets beyond LVN zones where momentum slows
• Stop Loss Placement: Avoid placing stops inside LVN zones (price likely to continue)
• Confluence with FVG: LVN zones often align with Fair Value Gaps
• Retest Opportunities: When price revisits LVN, expect quick moves
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
⚙️ KEY FEATURES
TIMEFRAME FLEXIBILITY:
• 5 independent timeframe slots with enable/disable toggles
• Auto-mode intelligently selects higher timeframes
• Preset options: 5m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 2H, 4H, D, W, 2W, M, 3M, 6M, 12M
VISUAL CUSTOMIZATION:
• Individual color settings for each timeframe
• Adjustable box transparency and border width
• Toggle timeframe labels and period dates on/off
• Four text size options: tiny, small, normal, large
ADVANCED CONTROLS:
• LVN Threshold: 0-50% (default 30%) - lower = fewer, stronger zones
• Immunity Period: 0-50 bars (default 20) - prevents premature closure
• Show/Hide old boxes for clean chart appearance
• Maximum 500 boxes supported per timeframe
PROFESSIONAL DISPLAY:
• Zones show timeframe label (5m, 1H, D, etc.)
• Optional period dates (dd.MM-dd.MM format)
• Boxes extend right dynamically until price touch
• Clean visual hierarchy with bordered zones
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
📈 HOW TO USE
SETUP:
1. Add indicator to chart
2. Enable desired timeframes (TF1, TF2, etc.)
3. Adjust LVN threshold based on your trading style:
• 20-25% = Very selective (only thinnest zones)
• 30-35% = Balanced (recommended for most markets)
• 40-50% = More zones (higher sensitivity)
INTERPRETATION:
• RED/DARK ZONES = Low trading activity occurred here
• Price tends to move THROUGH these zones quickly
• Similar behavior to Fair Value Gaps (FVG) in Smart Money theory
• Expect acceleration when price enters LVN zones
TRADING STRATEGIES:
1. BREAKOUT TRADING:
- Wait for price to approach LVN zone
- Enter when price breaks into the zone
- Expect rapid movement through the zone
- Target next support/resistance beyond LVN
2. CONFLUENCE ANALYSIS:
- Combine with other SMC concepts (Order Blocks, FVG, Liquidity)
- LVN + FVG overlap = high-probability acceleration zone
- Use higher timeframe LVN as directional bias
3. MULTI-TIMEFRAME:
- Daily LVN = major breakout zones
- 4H LVN = intraday momentum areas
- 15m LVN = scalping opportunities

📊 ORIGINALITY & UNIQUENESS
This indicator is original because:
1. TPO-BASED CALCULATION: Uses Market Profile Time-Price-Opportunity methodology instead of traditional volume analysis, making it work on all markets including those without real volume data (Forex, some indices).
2. IMMUNITY SYSTEM: Unique protection mechanism prevents zones from disappearing immediately when price is already within zone boundaries at creation time.
3. TRUE MULTI-TIMEFRAME: Independent calculation for each timeframe with separate zone management, not simple higher timeframe projection.
4. SMART ZONE LIFECYCLE: Zones dynamically extend until price touch, then become static historical references.
5. FVG-LIKE BEHAVIOR: Bridges traditional Market Profile analysis with modern Smart Money Concepts by identifying zones that behave similarly to Fair Value Gaps.
Unlike existing LVN indicators that rely on volume data, this tool uses time-based analysis, making it universal across all market types and compatible with brokers that don't provide accurate volume information.

MARKET PROFILE THEORY:
Developed by J. Peter Steidlmayer in the 1980s, Market Profile analyzes market behavior by examining price and time relationships. Low Volume Nodes in traditional profile represent areas where market participants showed minimal interest.
TPO (TIME PRICE OPPORTUNITY):
Instead of counting volume, TPO counts how many time periods (bars) touched each price level. This approach:
• Works on all markets regardless of volume data quality
• Reflects actual time-based market acceptance/rejection
• Reveals psychological price levels through time distribution
CONNECTION TO SMART MONEY CONCEPTS:
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) in ICT methodology represent similar inefficiencies:
• Areas where price moved too quickly
• Imbalances in buying/selling pressure
• Zones that price may revisit or accelerate through
• LVN zones often overlap with FVG locations

🎓 RECOMMENDED RESOURCES
To maximize this indicator's effectiveness, study:
• Market Profile fundamentals (TPO, POC, Value Area)
• Smart Money Concepts (FVG, Order Blocks, Liquidity)
• Multi-timeframe analysis techniques
• Volume Profile comparison (understand the difference)
COMPANION INDICATOR:
Consider using "HVN Smart Liquidity" (opposite concept) to identify both high and low volume zones for complete Market Profile analysis.

🟡 GOLD 4H HUD v8.9 — Loose ICT OB + Strong/Weak + FVG/HVN/LVNGOLD 4H HUD v8.9 is a clean, structured Smart Money Concepts (SMC)–based analysis tool designed exclusively for XAUUSD on the 4-hour timeframe.
It focuses on the three most important elements for institutional orderflow analysis:
✔ Loose ICT Order Blocks (Demand/Supply)
✔ Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
✔ Volume Profile Zones (HVN/LVN/POC)
The script builds a professional-style HUD that displays the key institutional regions and structural levels that matter most for gold traders.
📌 Key Features
1 — Market Structure Engine (HH/HL & BOS)
The indicator detects:
Minor swing Highs and Lows
Last confirmed HH / HL levels
Break of Structure (BOS) for directional bias
EMA-200 trend filter (UP / DOWN / NEUTRAL)
This gives traders a clean structural read without clutter or noise.
2 — Loose FVG Engine (Tolerance-Based ICT Gaps)
A soft-threshold FVG engine detects “loose” Fair Value Gaps using a 0.1% price tolerance.
This method ensures:
Fewer missed imbalances
Cleaner OB/FVG alignment
Higher accuracy on 4H gold displacement legs
FVGs automatically shift to the right side of the chart for clean visualization.
3 — Order Block Engine (Demand/Supply + Strong/Weak Classification)
A simplified ICT-style OB engine scans the past few candles whenever BOS is detected.
It identifies:
Demand OB during bullish BOS
Supply OB during bearish BOS
Strong OB if fully nested inside an active FVG
Weak OB otherwise
OB boxes include:
Clear color coding (strong vs. weak)
Price range labels inside each box
Automatic right-shift for visual clarity
4 — Volume Profile Engine (POC / HVN / LVN / VAH / VAL)
Based on a rolling window (default 120 bars), the script builds a lightweight volume distribution.
It displays:
POC (Point of Control)
HVN (High Volume Node)
LVN (Low Volume Node)
Value Area High / Low
HVN/LVN zones are shown as right-shifted colored boxes with price labels.
These zones help identify:
Institutional accumulation
Low-liquidity rejection points
Areas where price tends to react strongly
5 — Support / Resistance Mapping
The script automatically generates:
OB-based support/resistance
Swing-high/swing-low levels
HVN/LVN structural levels
These are displayed in the HUD for fast reference.
6 — Professional HUD Panel
A compact, easy-to-read HUD summarizes:
Trend direction
Latest HH/HL
OB ranges (Strong/Weak)
HVN/LVN price zones
POC
Multi-layer support & resistance
This turns the script into a fully functional analysis dashboard.
📌 What This Indicator Is NOT
To avoid misunderstanding:
It does not take entries or generate buy/sell signals
It does not auto-detect CHOCH, MSS, SMT, or sweeps
It is not a trading bot
This tool is designed as an institutional-style map and analysis HUD, not a strategy.
📌 Best Use Case
This indicator is ideal for traders who want to:
Read institutional structure on XAUUSD
Identify clean Demand/Supply zones
Visualize FVG/OB/HVN interactions
Track high-value liquidity levels
Build directional bias on 4H before dropping to execution timeframes
⚠ Important Note
This tool is designed exclusively for the 4H timeframe.
Using it on lower timeframes will display a warning.
