Flow of Trade | Supply & Demand Zones | Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection (+)
Built using Pine Script V5.

Introduction
The Flow of Trade indicator is a trading tool designed to leverage the principles of Supply and Demand, along with automatic “Turtle Soup” reversal pattern detection.
This indicator is made for traders who aim to identify potential market reversal points, supported by multi-timeframe analysis for a more complete market overview.

Core Concepts and Innovation

Supply and Demand (S&D) Zones
At the heart of the Flow of Trade indicator is the concept of Supply & Demand, along with Market Imbalance, which is sound for identifying the Supply and Demand zones.

The Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection
Named after the ICT-derived trading pattern, the Flow of Trade script tries to find and plot these "failed breakout" reversals based on the user input configuration.

Inputs
The Flow of Trade indicator offers customization, allowing traders to fit the tool to their specific analysis needs and trading style.

• Zone Ratio: Determines the scale of imbalance required for a candle to be considered for a zone. A higher value indicates a need for a more significant imbalance, making zones less frequent but potentially more reliable.
  
• Zone Extension: Specifies how far to the right of the latest bar the zones should extend, providing a visual projection of potential future support and resistance areas.
  
• Display LTF Zones: Enables the visualization of zones from lower timeframes on the current chart, offering a multi-timeframe perspective on supply and demand areas.
  
• Supply and Demand Zone Colors: Customize the colors for supply (red) and demand (blue) zones, including opacity for chart visibility.
  
• Border Color: Adjust the border color to find a suitable view of the zones. Optionally disable the S&D colors with 0% opacity and only keep border colors for a border-only view.
  
• Text Display Settings: Options to display high/low quotes information within zones.
  
• Timeframe Options: Select which timeframes to include in the analysis, from shorter periods like 30M to longer ones like Daily (D) or Weekly (W), allowing for a complete view across different timeframes.
  

How It Works

Imbalance Calculation.
The indicator looks at consecutive candles to measure the magnitude of price movement and volume imbalances.
A significant imbalance between buying and selling pressure is what defines a potential supply or demand zone.

Supply Zones Identification.
A supply zone is flagged when there's imbalance favoring sellers, typically after a notable price drop. It looks for a consolidation phase where the price fails to achieve a higher high, suggesting an area where sellers might regain control.

Demand Zones Identification.
A demand zone is marked in the presence of a buyer-dominated imbalance, especially after a significant price rally.
The indicator seeks periods of consolidation where the price doesn't make a lower low, indicating potential buyer accumulation.

Multi-Timeframe Imbalance Analysis.
The indicator extends its imbalance analysis across multiple timeframes of identified zones.
This multi-layered approach allows traders to discern the strength and relevance of supply and demand zones within a broader multi-timeframe market context.

Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection.
The Turtle Soup pattern detection is fitted into the imbalance analysis.
The indicator scans for setups within or near the identified supply and demand zones, providing an additional layer of confirmation for potential reversals.
The Turtle Soup Pattern Logic
Attempts at detecting false breakouts within the zones. For example, a bearish Turtle Soup pattern emerges when the price dips below a demand zone but quickly reverses, indicating a failed breakout and potential upward momentum.

Integration and Practical Application
The Flow of Trade indicator integrates these elements, marking out S&D zones while also scanning for reversal patterns within or adjacent to these zones.

The added multi-timeframe analysis can help the traders understanding of broader market context, enabling you to find the relative strength of MTF zones and see how reversal setups perform in the specific asset.

• Strategic Entry and Exit Points: Use the confluence of S&D zones and Turtle Soup patterns to find possible entry and exit points.
  
• Risk Management: Potentially leverage the defined zones for setting stop-loss levels and managing trade risk based on supply and demand concepts.
  
• Confirmation and Confluence: Apply multi-timeframe analysis to validate S&D zones and Turtle Soup patterns.

Conclusion
The Flow of Trade indicator is of time-tested market principles and along with innovative pattern recognition, designed to offer traders a customizable method for more systematized view of supply and demand, along with reversal signals.
Its multi-timeframe analysis can be useful for decision-making and systemizing your trading layout.

Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Do not solely rely on the signals from the Flow of Trade indicator.
The indicator is meant to be used as confluence to an existing strategy.
