Session LiquidityThe “Session Liquidity” TradingView indicator by Infinity Trading creates dynamic horizontal lines at the high and low points of a specified time span within the trading day. This indicator gives the user control of three separate time spans so the user can dynamically see the highs and lows of their favorite daily time spans.
Purpose
This indicator is similar to my TradingView indicator “Futures Exchange Sessions 3.0”. In that indicator the user gets control of dynamic price boxes. For me, these boxes made it difficult to spot ICT’s Orderblocks. So instead of boxes I made independently controllable lines and now I can spot ICT Orderblocks and easily identify Liquidity Pools.
Inputs and Style
Everything about the three dynamic lines can but independently configured. Start & End Times, Line Color, Line Style, Line Width, Text Characters, Text Size, Text Color can all be adjusted. The high and low lines as well as their text labels can be individually toggled on or off for maximum control.
Timezone
All of the start and end times are in EST. Additionally, each time span line needs a specific start of each day. This is controlled by a setting called “Line Start Day Timezone” where the user sets a timezone that corresponds with the start time. In general if a timespan resides within a particular Session pick the corresponding timezone. If the users line fits in the Asian Session then choose Asia/Shanghai. If the line is within the London Session then choose Europe/London. And the same goes for the New York Session.
Special Notes
If the Line Start Time is within one candle of the Start Day Timezone in the Settings, then the line/box won’t display. So choose the previous timezone
Lines only display when the timeframe is <= 30 minute

Midnight Open NY TimeMidnight Open shows opening price of the first candle after New York Midnight.
According to ICT, this is what IBPDA - Inter Bank Price Delivery Algorithm - sees as a true market opening and we should aim for shorts above it (sell for premium) and longs below it (buy at discount).
ICT NY Futures Indices Session Model - YT New York MentorshipThis indicator plots out the time periods and open lines as outlined in ICT's 2022 Mentorship and is designed specifically for the New York futures trading session.
Time zone is set to GMT-4 (NY) by default but can be changed for accommodate daylight saving in the menu.
Please note this indicator is to be used only on the 30min timeframe and below.
Here are its features:
The background color shows the morning session, in two parts (8.30am to 9.30am and 9.30am to 11.30am), then a two hour gap for lunch (ICT calls this "Dead time") and finally, the afternoon session, also to two (1.30pm to 3pm and 3pm to 4pm).
It not only shows the current killzones, but future zones as well.
These times are important; trades can be framed within these zones as taught in the mentorship.
Next are the open lines. These lines are automatically plotted and can be areas for price to react off of; they are the opening price of a candle at these times:
00.00 (New York Midnight, also known as "True Day Open")
8.30am (New York Equities pre-open)
9.30am (New York Equities open)
2.00am (London Stock Exchange open)
And lastly, London's trading session High and Low are projected forward onto the New York trading session.
These two price points are areas of liquidity that were pooled during London, but they can also often set the high or low of the day.
Please let me know if there are any bugs or if you have suggestions for the next update.
dmn's ICT ToolkitThis is my quality of life indicator for forex trading using the methods and concepts of ICT.
The idea is to automate marking up important price levels and times of the day instead of doing it manually every day.
Killzones
Marks the most volatile times of the day on the chart, during which the intraday high/low usually takes place.
Particularly impactful when there's news released during these times.
London Open (02:00-05:00 EST)
New York Open (08:30-11:00 EST)
London Close (10:00-11:30 EST)
True Day delineation
Vertical line at the start of the "true day" (00:00 EST), start of the algorithmic trading day and aids in visualizing the intraday direction.
New York midnight price level
Noteworthy price level at the start of the "true day".
This price level is referenced by the interbank trading algorithms during the day. Buy below it on bullish days, sell above it on bearish days.
Daily open price level
Reference level for optimal trade entries. Buy below it on bullish days, sell above it on bearish days.
Central Banks Dealers Range (CBDR) (14:00-20:00 EST) &
Central Banks Dealers Flout (CBDF) (15:00-24:00 EST) &
Asian Range (AR) (20:00-24:00 EST)
The standard deviation lines available are used to make predictions for short-term future highs/lows when the CBDR and AR are smaller than 40 pips.
Trade them by looking for 5/15min key levels that converge with the projection levels.
X days Average Daily Range (ADR)
Default to 5 days back, gives an idea of how much movement to expect intraday when the ADR high/low is converging with CBDR/CBDF/AR standard deviations.
Current Daily Range (CDR)
Used for comparison against the ADR to help determine if there's enough intraday range left to enter a trade.
Dynamically changes color based on percentage of the ADR. Green below 50% of ADR, orange between 50 and 100%, red when CDR exceeds ADR.
All of the above are used in conjunction with each other and higher timeframe levels of importance to find entries and target.
Note: Preferably use New York's time zone for your charts.
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.
Index OverlayNote: use this indicator only with New York Timezone + you need to understand ICT concepts already, this indicator simplifies the chart work.
Also, in this script I added some open-source scripts from creators here on tradingview, but I forgot to annotate their names...
If you recognize your script, please text me and I'll add your credits.
features
- displays Midnight and Sunday open lines
- day separation (from midnight)
- FVGs
- VWAP (calculated from midnight open)
- daily labels
- TDH & TDL (liquidity)
- trading time window (from 9:30 to 12:00 ny time)
HOW TO USE
Combined with daily bias, the idea is to wait for 9:30 to open, and then wait for a liquidation of TDH (plotted in blue) or TDL (in red).
Once it happens, you can look for ICT buy / sell model, ideally in the 5m TF.

Weekly Power 3Did you know there is a simple line you can place on your chart to immediately make the weeks price action more understandable? Its called the Weekly Open Line. And its the opening price of the trading week. It was created by The Inner Circle Trader (ICT) and incorporates another one of his concepts called Power 3.
The Weekly Power 3 indicator takes the idea of the Weekly Open Line and builds a suite of intelligent and dynamic tools around it that will immediately help the user to start understanding how price moves within the trading week context.
Features
Static Weekly Open Line
Intelligent Days of the Week Text
Dynamic Weekly High Line
Dynamic Weekly Low Line
Weekly High Candle Label (highest candle of the week)
Weekly Low Candle Label (lowest candle of the week)
Best Odds High of the Week Zone Line & Text
Best Odds Low of the Week Zone Line & Text
Components
The primary feature is a line that forms on the weekly open price and grows as the week progresses. Additionally, lines are created for the highest and lowest prices of the week so the weekly profile can be easily recognized. A dynamic label marks each weeks highest and lowest point. This will automatically move as prices expand throughout the week.
A very useful component of the Weekly Power 3 indicator is the Days of the Week text. Each Day of the Week text is displayed in the middle of each trading day and also the user can specify in the Settings whether to position the text at the high or low of the weeks price range. Additionally, there is a Buffer setting that allows the user to move the Days of the Week text up or down to prevent chart overlapping.
To help the user visualize the span of time with the best odds of forming the weekly highs or weekly lows, according to ICT, this indicator adds at static line and optional label into the charts future that projects the span from Tuesday’s London Open to Wednesday’s New York. Having a static line out in the future on your chart really helps to picture where price could be drawn to based solely around time of the week.
Premise
ICT says that the weekly open price is the most important level that price reacts to across the five days of a trading week. If the week profile is expected to be bullish then price many times goes below the weekly open line at the beginning of the week and above it later in the week (a.k.a Bullish Power 3). Consequently, if the week is anticipated to be a bearish week, price often times starts the week high and then goes lower throughout the week (a.k.a Bearish Power 3).
ICT always specifies that the weekly high or weekly low have the best odds of forming between the Tuesday’s London Open and Wednesday’s New York Open.
Inputs and Style
Like all scripts publish by Infinity Trading, everything in the indicator is customizable by the user. Every label, line, or text can be individually toggled ON or OFF so the user has complete control over the elements they want displayed on their chart. All of the lines can be individually adjusted by color, line style, or line width. The color and text color on the high and low of the week labels can be individually changed. The text in the chart (day of the week & best odds zones text) each have a “buffer” value. This allows the user to individually move the text up or down on the chart to declutter the chart. And lastly, the day of the week text can be positioned above or below the weeks price action and the text will dynamically move higher or lower as price expands throughout the week.
Previous weeks have all of the Weekly Power 3 markups so it's easy to study past price action and identify trends.

Automatic Closest FVG with BPRFair Value Gaps are a hugely popular concept and because of that there are numerous indicators available. This one however, was designed to automate the process of actually using them in trading.
Designed with lower time frame entries in mind (though will work on HTF just as well), this indicator automatically draws the closest, non-mitigated FVG, to the current price, cutting out the work of looking for what FVG is relevant.
The indicator also has an option to show when the current nearest pair of FVGs form a BPR or 'balanced price range'.
There are various option for what counts as mitigation, including no mitigation at all, and when mitigated an FVG is no longer considered for proximity searching.
ICT - GAPs and Volume Imbalance
GAPs
Gaps are areas on chart where the price have moved sharply up or down, with no trading in between. Gaps often fill, but they don't have to.
Volume Imbalance
Volume imbalance - determined using 2 candles
Bullish Volume Imbalance - area between the close of 1st candle and the open of 2nd candle
Bearish Volume Imbalance - area between the close of 1st candle and the open of 2nd candle
How to use the indicator:-
When you find imbalance in volume or a GAP in the chart, you may expect price to rebalance it before continuation.
Importantly, GAPs/Imbalances do not always fill. Traders should never assume that a gap/imbalance will fill without understanding the reasons for the gap and monitoring trading activity around the gap.
Pair it with your current bias for better results.
Bodies X Wix Version of Smart Money Tools by makuchaku & eFeThis is the same Script as Super Fair Value Gaps / FVG /BoS / by makuchaku & eFe. Mine Should Default to Large Text instead of small. The Super Order Blocks I believe was meant to for you to find one of the many Smart Money tools such as turn on the Fair Value gap but leave the others off, or Turn on where the Break of Structure and leave the others off. The reason I believe this is because the default values for each of the structures were default colored (green for positive and red for negative) for all.
Mine has a different Color for every possible structure. As long as you can read with the larger text that I added, then you can create your own boxes positive for break of structure, rejection block, order blocks and fair value gaps for any time frame. The reason I did that is because There's only certain things I believe I will need to mark for myself in each time frame, and then from there You can stretch iyour own box out further in time because if price touches a fair value gap for example, the fair value gap should conyinue in time until at least 2 candles have filed the Fair valu gap going both directions. That's truly when the fair value gap should is mitigated and will from off the chart. However, If I knew How to add the code for that, I would.
Additionally, I have the Max Boxes per chart, so you should have the ability to see every OB, FVG,RJB, & BoS on the chart
I tried my hardest to create a colored border that was different from the box. But the way the original was coded was almost impossible to do. Because they defined each of the structures (FVG, OB, BoS, RJB) outer levels, when the outer levels connect via math in the code, then it joins all the outside lines for a rectangle. When creating a box, the coloe will always be the same as the border unfortunately. (Unless I replan this from the beginning)
I also Changed the default labels for reach structure from a hard to read gray to a white that pops out.
Also, chart indicators are a little large as well. Such as the cross, sideways cross, The green Triangle, and the white Diamond. You'll get used to it or you can change it as well.
Creating videos for students, you need something they can see.
So, I just wanted to ensure everything was a little more unique and easily usable when showing this to my students when I send them private videos for our weekly lessons. I'm trying to learn how to use the IPFS for THAT, (which i see has invaded PineScript) Hope this indicator helps.

ICT IPDA Look BackThis script automatically calculates and updates ICT's daily IPDA look back time intervals and their respective discount / equilibrium / premium, so you don't have to :)
IPDA stands for Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm. Said algorithm appears to be referencing the past 20, 40, and 60 days intervals as points of reference to define ranges and related PD arrays.
Intraday traders can find most value in the 20 Day Look Back box, by observing imbalances and points of interest.
Longer term traders can reference the 40 and 60 Day Look Back boxes for a clear indication of current market conditions.
Daily Profile (Nephew_Sam_)From getting several requests to combine many of my indicators into one, this indicator plots everything you need for a Daily Profile.
1. Session = Current session + Daily dividers + day of the week
2. Open Lines = Plot the open of the day, midnight, week and month
3. Asian Range = Plots the asian range with an option for midpoint and extending lines
4. Previous OHLC = Plot the previous day/week/month OHLC
EVERY line/label/color/size/style is fully customizable in this indicator.
Important to adjust your timezone to get the correct data
Balanced Price Range (BPR)This script finds BPR's, which some simply refer to as a "double Fair Value Gap" (FVG). In a BPR, there is an overlapping vertical area between a recent bullish and bearish FVG. You may tune the parameters to filter out smaller FVG's or BPR's, as well as how far back the indicator must look to find a matching pair.
ICT Market Protraction (0:00, 7:00, 20:00 NY time highlight)Market protraction, as defined by ICT, is a time-specific reoccurring impulse move in forex markets. It is designed for market manipulation and will go in the opposite direction of the following trend.
My indicator will add a shape above/below the candle if it fits the time criteria.
I recommend to watch: ICT Mentorship Core Content - Month 1 - Impulse Price Swings & Market Protraction on Youtube
ICT Index ScheduleNew ICT student here, decided to compile the daily schedule and salient levels for London and New York index sessions into one place to aid my learning – thought others might benefit from this too :)
The script works with whatever timezone setting, however make sure to change your timezone to New York time if you want to have the proper time-price alignment (I personally find it helpful when studying).
Here's a legend of all the elements displayed at once:
London only:
New York only:
// Couldn't find a comprehensive script with all the elements included, s/o to @the1dv for their Days of Week script.
Volume SpikesShows volume spikes over a certain threshold, using a symbol's volume moving average as the baseline. Offers a few different filters regarding candle shapes and types, in an attempt to catch quick moves on extremely low timeframes (sub-1m).
Ultimately I would like to integrate this logic into an indicator that contains automated stop raid/inducement detection.
Automatic Order Block + Imbalance by D. BrigagliaThis script combines automatic orderblock and imbalance tracking.
Bullish OB - Blue
Bullish Imbalance - Green
Bearish OB - Red
Bearish Imbalance - Orange
Please note that the actual definitions of orderblock and imbalance are not respected in this script for the sake of simplicity. Scripts that are too complex may overfit some particular chart. Since there is no way to translate the actual ob and imb definitions into pinescript language, I decided to keep it simple.
Ideally, you want to see a bullish OB followed by buy side imbalance, or viceversa. OBs that are broken weakly are generally invalidated, ones that are broken strongly generally become breakers, and you can use them as good support/resistance levels.
Also, a good thing you can do when an OB and an imbalance match, is going in the lower timeframes and catching the structure reversal in the OB or imbalance zone. That may provide excellent RR trades. Always trade with OB that confirm the HTF trend.
Nothing in my content on tradingview is considerable investment advice.
ICT Killzone [Forex Edition]This indicator show in different way the bank session teached by ICT in his channel (Asian Range, London Open, New York Open, London Close).
The user have the opportunity to change the visualization from a beacon to a box, and is possible to show the amount of pips of box range with the "info" check.
If something isn't clear comment below and I will answer as soon as possible.
Fair Value Gap [LuxAlgo]Fair value gaps (FVG) highlight imbalances areas between market participants and have become popular amongst technical analysts. The following script aims to display fair value gaps alongside the percentage of filled gaps and the average duration (in bars) before gaps are filled.
Users can be alerted when an FVG is filled using the alerts built into this script.
🔶 USAGE
In practice, FVG's highlight areas of support (bullish FVG) and resistances (bearish FVG). Once a gap is filled, suggesting the end of the imbalance, we can expect the price to reverse.
This approach is more contrarian in nature, users wishing to use a more trend-following approach can use the identification of FVG as direct signals, going long with the identification of a bullish FVG, and short with a bearish FVG.
🔹 Mitigation
By default, the script highlights the areas of only unmitigated FVG's. Users can however highlight the mitigation level of mitigated FVG's, that is the lower extremity of bullish FVG's and the upper extremity of bearish FVG's.
The user can track the evolution of a mitigated FVG's using the "Dynamic" setting.
🔹 Threshold
The gap height can be used to determine the degree of imbalance between buying and selling market participants. Users can filter fair value gaps based on the gap height using the "Threshold %" setting. Using the "Auto" will make use of an automatic threshold, only keeping more volatile FVG's.
🔶 DETAILS
We use the following rules for detecting FVG's in this script:
Bullish FVG
low > high(t-2)
close(t-1) > high(t-2)
(low - high(t-2)) / high(t-2) > threshold
Upper Bullish FVG = low
Lower Bullish FVG = high(t-2)
Bearish FVG
high < low(t-2)
close(t-1) < low(t-2)
(low(t-2) - high) / high < -threshold
Upper Bearish FVG = low(t-2)
Lower Bearish FVG = high
🔶 SETTINGS
Threshold %: Threshold percentage used to filter our FVG's based on their height.
Auto Threshold: Use the cumulative mean of relative FVG heights as threshold.
Unmitigatted Levels: Extent the mitigation level of the number of unmitigated FVG's set by the user.
Mitigation Levels: Show the mitigation levels of mitigated FVG's.
Timeframe : Timeframe of the price data used to detect FVG's.
ICT Sessions (Kill Zones)Inspired by the work of ICT (Inner Circle Trader - @ICT_MHuddleston)
What are ICT KillZones:
All ICT students know that certain moments of the day are more indicated to search for good frameworks. These moments are indicated like "Kill Zones".
The best kill zones to search for profittable tradings are during the London session and during the New York session.
How This Indicator Can Help You:
With this indicator you'll see plotted in the charts the London Kill Zone and the New York Kill Zone, you'll see exactly when they start and finish, so you'll be able to understand better the price action and recognize if there are ICT framework to trade. You'll also will see when the New York lunch hour happen (this moment is not favorable for searching frameworks) and you'll see also 2 very important moments of the day, the 8.30 New York Time and the 9.30 New York Time, infact in these 2 particular moments it is most likely that some very profittable framework will appear as there are alway important economic news released in these 2 hours.
Also you'll see the New York Midnight Open, that always forms a very important level for the day trading, you could see the New York Midnight open as a real opening for markets.
Why This Indicator:
I looked for indicators working with these concepts and I could not find one that offered the kill zones sections in the way are showed in my indicator, also they just had the kill zones without showing the 8.30 and 9.30 hours and without the Ney York midnight opening, and these are very important time frames for who works with ICT concepts.
About The Indicator:
In this indicator you'll have displayed:
The regular trading sessions displayed, that is: Asian Session, London Session, New York Session.
The London Kill Zone
The New York Kill Zone
The New York Midnight Open
The New York Lunch Hour
The 8:30 News Release Hour
The 9:30 News Release Hour
All these level can be adjusted and changed as you prefer.
Futures Exchange Sessions 3.0Description
The ultimate conclusion to the Futures Exchange Sessions 2.0 indicator. In version 3.0 the user gets full control of the start and end times of three separate dynamic boxes and one horizontal line. If the user wants to visually keep track of killzones, lunches, or any other time span in a trading day, version 3.0 will dynamically expand and keep track of price within the time specified by the user.
Inputs and Style
Everything about the three dynamic boxes and one horizontal line can but independently configured. Color, style, border, width can all be adjusted. In the Settings each box has a text box so the user can give each one a unique name.
Timezone
All of the start and end times are in EST. Additionally, each box and line need a dependent start of each day. This is controlled by a setting where the user can specify a timezone called Start Day Timezone which would be midnight of the respective timezone. In general if a box or line resides within a particular Session pick the corresponding timezone. If the users box/line fits in the Asian Session then choose Asia/Shanghai. If the box/line is within the London Session then choose Europe/London. And the same goes for the New York Session.
Special Notes
If start time is within one period of the Start Day Timezone in the Settings, then the line/box won't display
Boxes and time lines only display when timeframe is <= 30 minute
To turn off box text label set opacity to 0%
MTF fair value gap v2 thigh gaps yumwell load in 2 FVG indicators one for current chart then one for MTF of interest.
Higher timeframe FVGs are more important and can be used for bias or even targets for internal liquidity.
big thanks @shanxia for basically re-doing the FVGs into arrays hehehe..
Can now delete mitigated or change mitigated color..
I dont know who uses extensions but if you want to suffer in your private time then go ahead...
pre sure this is the sexiest FVG indicator validate me in the description pls
