Macros + AMD [NW] - Daily & Weekly Time-Based Analysis

Multi-timeframe AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution) visualization with ICT Macro timing windows for time-based market analysis.

Overview

This indicator visualizes the AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution) framework on both daily and weekly timeframes, combined with ICT Macro timing windows. It is designed as an educational tool to help traders study time-based market structure and algorithmic price delivery concepts.

The AMD model is based on the idea that markets move through distinct phases within each trading period:

Accumulation (A) - Initial range formation, liquidity building
Manipulation (M) - False moves to trap traders, liquidity sweeps
Distribution (D) - True directional move, price delivery to targets

What This Indicator Displays
Daily AMD Phases

Displays the intraday AMD cycle based on New York trading hours:

A Phase (Blue): 4:00 AM - 8:35 AM EST — Morning accumulation, Asian/London overlap
M Phase (Red): 8:35 AM - 11:25 AM EST — NY session manipulation, news events
D Phase (Green): 11:25 AM - 4:00 PM EST — Afternoon distribution and price delivery

Weekly AMD Phases

Displays the weekly AMD cycle from Monday to Monday:

A Phase: Monday 00:00 - Tuesday 21:56 EST — Weekly high/low formation begins
M Phase: Tuesday 21:56 - Thursday 02:04 EST — Mid-week reversal zone
D Phase: Thursday 02:04 - Monday 00:00 EST — Weekly price delivery

Inner M Phase Fibs

When enabled, subdivides the M (Manipulation) phase using Fibonacci levels:

0.382 level — Inner accumulation ends
0.500 level — Mid-point of manipulation
0.618 level — Inner distribution begins

This helps identify potential reversal points within the manipulation phase.
ICT Macro Windows

Horizontal lines marking the XX:42 to XX:15 macro periods (33-minute windows):

2:42 - 3:15 AM
3:42 - 4:15 AM (London)
7:42 - 8:15 AM
8:42 - 9:15 AM
9:42 - 10:15 AM (Prime AM session)
10:42 - 11:15 AM
11:42 - 12:15 PM
12:42 - 1:15 PM
1:42 - 2:15 PM
2:42 - 3:15 PM

These windows represent times when algorithmic price delivery is more likely to occur.
How To Use
Understanding the AMD Framework

During the A Phase:

Observe range formation and initial liquidity pools
Note the high and low established during this phase
Wait for manipulation before committing to direction

During the M Phase:

Watch for false breakouts and stop hunts
Look for reversal patterns after liquidity sweeps
The inner fibs (0.382, 0.5, 0.618) can help time entries within this phase
Mid-week (Wednesday) often sees key reversals on weekly AMD

During the D Phase:

This is typically when the true move occurs
Price tends to deliver toward draw on liquidity targets
The direction is often opposite to the manipulation move

Using the Macro Windows

The XX:42 to XX:15 windows are times to pay attention to price action:

These 33-minute periods often see increased algorithmic activity
Look for displacement, fair value gaps, or order blocks forming
The 9:42-10:15 AM window is considered particularly significant for NY session

Weekly Day Labels

Monday/Tuesday: "H/L of Week" — Watch for weekly high or low formation
Wednesday: "Reversal Day" — Mid-week reversal probability increases
Thursday/Friday: "Reversal Day" — Continuation or secondary reversal
