Silver Bullet ICT Strategy [TradingFinder] 10-11 AM NY Time +FVG🔵 Introduction
The ICT Silver Bullet trading strategy is a precise, time-based algorithmic approach that relies on Fair Value Gaps and Liquidity to identify high-probability trade setups. The strategy primarily focuses on the New York AM Session from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, leveraging heightened market activity within this critical window to capture short-term trading opportunities.
As an intraday strategy, it is most effective on lower timeframes, with ICT recommending a 15-minute chart or lower. While experienced traders often utilize 1-minute to 5-minute charts, beginners may find the 1-minute timeframe more manageable for applying this strategy.
This approach specifically targets quick trades, designed to take advantage of market movements within tight one-hour windows. By narrowing its focus, the Silver Bullet offers a streamlined and efficient method for traders to capitalize on liquidity shifts and price imbalances with precision.
In the fast-paced world of forex trading, the ability to identify market manipulation and false price movements is crucial for traders aiming to stay ahead of the curve. The Silver Bullet Indicator simplifies this process by integrating ICT principles such as liquidity traps, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG).
These concepts form the foundation of a tool designed to mimic the strategies of institutional players, empowering traders to align their trades with the "smart money." By transforming complex market dynamics into actionable insights, the Silver Bullet Indicator provides a powerful framework for short-term trading success
Silver Bullet Bullish Setup :
Silver Bullet Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The Silver Bullet Indicator is a specialized tool that operates within the critical time windows of 9:00-10:00 and 10:00-11:00 in the forex market. Its design incorporates key principles from ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology, focusing on concepts such as liquidity traps, CISD Levels, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to provide precise and actionable trade setups.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In a bullish setup, the indicator starts by marking the high and low of the session, serving as critical reference points for liquidity. A typical sequence involves a liquidity grab below the low, where the price manipulates retail traders into selling positions by breaching a key support level.
This movement is often orchestrated by smart money to accumulate buy orders. Following this liquidity grab, a market structure shift (MSS) occurs, signaled by the price breaking the CISD Level—a confirmation of bullish intent. The indicator then highlights an Order Block near the CISD Level, representing the zone where institutional buying is concentrated.
Additionally, it identifies a Fair Value Gap, which acts as a high-probability area for price retracement and trade entry. Traders can confidently take long positions when the price revisits these zones, targeting the next significant liquidity pool or resistance level.
Bullish Setup in CAPITALCOM:US100 :
🟣 Bearish Setup
Conversely, in a bearish setup, the price manipulates liquidity by creating a false breakout above the high of the session. This move entices retail traders into long positions, allowing institutional players to enter sell orders.
Once the price reverses direction and breaches the CISD Level to the downside, a change of character (CHOCH) becomes evident, confirming a bearish market structure. The indicator highlights an Order Block near this level, indicating the origin of the institutional sell orders, along with an associated FVG, which represents an imbalance zone likely to be revisited before the price continues downward.
By entering short positions when the price retraces to these levels, traders align their strategies with the anticipated continuation of bearish momentum, targeting nearby liquidity voids or support zones.
Bearish Setup in OANDA:XAUUSD :
🔵 Settings
Refine Order Block : Enables finer adjustments to Order Block levels for more accurate price responses.
Mitigation Level OB : Allows users to set specific reaction points within an Order Block, including: Proximal: Closest level to the current price. 50% OB: Midpoint of the Order Block. Distal: Farthest level from the current price.
FVG Filter : The Judas Swing indicator includes a filter for Fair Value Gap (FVG), allowing different filtering based on FVG width: FVG Filter Type: Can be set to "Very Aggressive," "Aggressive," "Defensive," or "Very Defensive." Higher defensiveness narrows the FVG width, focusing on narrower gaps.
Mitigation Level FVG : Like the Order Block, you can set price reaction levels for FVG with options such as Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal.
CISD : The Bar Back Check option enables traders to specify the number of past candles checked for identifying the CISD Level, enhancing CISD Level accuracy on the chart.
🔵 Conclusion
The Silver Bullet Indicator is a cutting-edge tool designed specifically for forex traders who aim to leverage market dynamics during critical liquidity windows. By focusing on the highly active 9:00-10:00 and 10:00-11:00 timeframes, the indicator simplifies complex market concepts such as liquidity traps, Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps (FVG), and CISD Levels, transforming them into actionable insights.
What sets the Silver Bullet Indicator apart is its precision in detecting false breakouts and market structure shifts (MSS), enabling traders to align their strategies with institutional activity. The visual clarity of its signals, including color-coded zones and directional arrows, ensures that both novice and experienced traders can easily interpret and apply its findings in real-time.
By integrating ICT principles, the indicator empowers traders to identify high-probability entry and exit points, minimize risk, and optimize trade execution. Whether you are capturing short-term price movements or navigating complex market conditions, the Silver Bullet Indicator offers a robust framework to enhance your trading performance.
Ultimately, this tool is more than just an indicator; it is a strategic ally for traders who seek to decode the movements of smart money and capitalize on institutional strategies. With the Silver Bullet Indicator, traders can approach the market with greater confidence, precision, and profitability.
Key Prices & LevelsThis indicator is designed to visualize key price levels & areas for NY trading sessions based on the price action from previous day, pre-market activity and key areas from NY session itself. The purpose is to unify all key levels into a single indicator, while allowing a user to control which levels they want to visualize and how.
The indicator identifies the following:
Asia Range High/Lows, along with ability to visualize with a box
London Range High/Lows, along with ability to visualize with a box
Previous Day PM Session High/Lows
Current Day Lunch Session High/Lows, starts appearing after 12pm EST once the lunch session starts
New York Open (8:30am EST) price
9:53 Open (root candle) price
New York Midnight (12:00am EST) price
Previous Day High/Lows
First 1m FVG after NY Session Start (after 9:30am), with the ability to configure minimum FVG size.
Opening Range Gap, showing regular market hours close price (previous day 16:15pm EST close), new session open price (9:30am EST open) and optionally the mid-point between the two
Asia Range 50% along with 2, 2.5, 4 and 4.5 deviations of the Asia range in both directions
Configurability:
Each price level can be turned off
Styles in terms of line type, color
Ability to turn on/off labels for price levels and highlighting of prices on price scale
Ability to control label text for price levels
How is it different:
Identifies novel concepts such as 9:53 open, root candle that can be used as a bounce/resistance area during AM/PM sessions as well as confirmation of direction once closed over/under to indicate price's willingness to continue moving in the same direction.
It also shows 1st 1m FVG after New York Session open, that can be used to determine direction of the price action depending on PA's reaction to that area. While both 9:53 and 1m FVG are 1m based markers, these levels are visualized by the indicator on all timeframes from 15s to 1h.
Additionally the indicator is able to both highlight key prices in the price scale pane as well as combine labels to minimize clutter when multiple levels have the same price.
Lastly for in-session ranges such as Lunch High/Low the indicator updates the range in real-time as opposed to waiting for the lunch session to be over.
ICT Setup 03 [TradingFinder] Judas Swing NY 9:30am + CHoCH/FVG🔵 Introduction
Judas Swing is an advanced trading setup designed to identify false price movements early in the trading day. This advanced trading strategy operates on the principle that major market players, or "smart money," drive price in a certain direction during the early hours to mislead smaller traders.
This deceptive movement attracts liquidity at specific levels, allowing larger players to execute primary trades in the opposite direction, ultimately causing the price to return to its true path.
The Judas Swing setup functions within two primary time frames, tailored separately for Forex and Stock markets. In the Forex market, the setup uses the 8:15 to 8:30 AM window to identify the high and low points, followed by the 8:30 to 8:45 AM frame to execute the Judas move and identify the CISD Level break, where Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones are subsequently detected.
In the Stock market, these time frames shift to 9:15 to 9:30 AM for identifying highs and lows and 9:30 to 9:45 AM for executing the Judas move and CISD Level break.
Concepts such as Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) are crucial in this setup. An Order Block represents a chart region with a high volume of buy or sell orders placed by major financial institutions, marking significant levels where price reacts.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) refers to areas where price has moved rapidly without balance between supply and demand, highlighting zones of potential price action and future liquidity.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The Judas Swing setup enables traders to pinpoint entry and exit points by utilizing Order Block and FVG concepts, helping them align with liquidity-driven moves orchestrated by smart money. This setup applies two distinct time frames for Forex and Stocks to capture early deceptive movements, offering traders optimized entry or exit moments.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In the Bullish Judas Swing setup, the first step is to identify High and Low points within the initial time frame. These levels serve as key points where price may react, forming the basis for analyzing the setup and assisting traders in anticipating future market shifts.
In the second time frame, a critical stage of the bullish setup begins. During this phase, the price may create a false break or Fake Break below the low level, a deceptive move by major players to absorb liquidity. This false move often causes smaller traders to enter positions incorrectly. After this fake-out, the price reverses upward, breaking the CISD Level, a critical point in the market structure, signaling a potential bullish trend.
Upon breaking the CISD Level and reversing upward, the indicator identifies both the Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG). The Order Block is an area where major players typically place large buy orders, signaling potential price support. Meanwhile, the FVG marks a region of supply-demand imbalance, signaling areas where price might react.
Ultimately, after these key zones are identified, a trader may open a buy position if the price reaches one of these critical areas—Order Block or FVG—and reacts positively. Trading at these levels enhances the chance of success due to liquidity absorption and support from smart money, marking an opportune time for entering a long position.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In the Bearish Judas Swing setup, analysis begins with marking the High and Low levels in the initial time frame. These levels serve as key zones where price could react, helping to signal possible trend reversals. Identifying these levels is essential for locating significant bearish zones and positioning traders to capitalize on downward movements.
In the second time frame, the primary bearish setup unfolds. During this stage, price may exhibit a Fake Break above the high, causing a brief move upward and misleading smaller traders into incorrect positions. After this false move, the price typically returns downward, breaking the CISD Level—a crucial bearish trend indicator.
With the CISD Level broken and a bearish trend confirmed, the indicator identifies the Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG). The Bearish Order Block is a region where smart money places significant sell orders, prompting a negative price reaction. The FVG denotes an area of supply-demand imbalance, signifying potential selling pressure.
When the price reaches one of these critical areas—the Bearish Order Block or FVG—and reacts downward, a trader may initiate a sell position. Entering trades at these levels, due to increased selling pressure and liquidity absorption, offers traders an advantage in profiting from price declines.
🔵 Settings
Market : The indicator allows users to choose between Forex and Stocks, automatically adjusting the time frames for the "Opening Range" and "Trading Permit" accordingly: Forex: 8:15–8:30 AM for identifying High and Low points, and 8:30–8:45 AM for capturing the Judas move and CISD Level break. Stocks: 9:15–9:30 AM for identifying High and Low points, and 9:30–9:45 AM for executing the Judas move and CISD Level break.
Refine Order Block : Enables finer adjustments to Order Block levels for more accurate price responses.
Mitigation Level OB : Allows users to set specific reaction points within an Order Block, including: Proximal: Closest level to the current price. 50% OB: Midpoint of the Order Block. Distal: Farthest level from the current price.
FVG Filter : The Judas Swing indicator includes a filter for Fair Value Gap (FVG), allowing different filtering based on FVG width: FVG Filter Type: Can be set to "Very Aggressive," "Aggressive," "Defensive," or "Very Defensive." Higher defensiveness narrows the FVG width, focusing on narrower gaps.
Mitigation Level FVG : Like the Order Block, you can set price reaction levels for FVG with options such as Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal.
CISD : The Bar Back Check option enables traders to specify the number of past candles checked for identifying the CISD Level, enhancing CISD Level accuracy on the chart.
🔵 Conclusion
The Judas Swing indicator helps traders spot reliable trading opportunities by detecting false price movements and key levels such as Order Block and FVG. With a focus on early market movements, this tool allows traders to align with major market participants, selecting entry and exit points with greater precision, thereby reducing trading risks.
Its extensive customization options enable adjustments for various market types and trading conditions, giving traders the flexibility to optimize their strategies. Based on ICT techniques and liquidity analysis, this indicator can be highly effective for those seeking precision in their entry points.
Overall, Judas Swing empowers traders to capitalize on significant market movements by leveraging price volatility. Offering precise and dependable signals, this tool presents an excellent opportunity for enhancing trading accuracy and improving performance
Liquidity Channels [TFO]This indicator was built to visually demonstrate the significance of major, untouched pivots. With traders commonly placing orders at or near significant pivots, these areas are commonly referred to as Resting Liquidity. If we attribute some factor of growth over time, we can quickly visualize that certain pivots originated much further away than others, if their channels appear larger.
A pivot in this case is validated by the Liquidity Strength parameter. If set to 50 for example, then a pivot high is validated if its high is greater than the high of the 50 bars to the left and right of itself. This also implies a delay in finding pivots, as the drawings won't actually appear until validation, which would occur 50 bars after the original high has formed in this case. This is typical of indicators using swing highs and lows, as one must wait some period of time to validate the pivots in question.
The Channel Growth parameter dictates how much the Liquidity Channels will expand over time. The following chart is an example, where the left-hand side is using a Channel Growth of 1, and the right-hand side is using a Channel Growth of 10.
When price reaches these levels, they become invalidated and will stop extending to the right. The other condition for invalidation is the Delete After (Bars) parameter which, when enabled, declares that untouched levels will be deleted if the distance from their origin exceeds this many bars.
This indicator also offers an option to Hide Expanding Channels for those who just want the actual levels on their chart, without the extra visuals, which would look something like the below chart.
Candle Range Theory [Advanced] - AlgoVisionUnderstanding Candle Range Theory (CRT) in the AlgoVision Indicator
Candle Range Theory (CRT) is a structured approach to analyzing market movements within the price ranges of candlesticks. CRT is founded on the idea that each candlestick on a chart, regardless of timeframe, represents a distinct range of price action, marked by the candle's open, high, low, and close. This range gives insights into market dynamics, and when analyzed in lower timeframes, reveals patterns that indicate underlying market sentiment and institutional behaviors.
Key Concepts of Candle Range Theory
Candlestick Range: The range of a candlestick is simply the distance between its high and low. Across timeframes, this range highlights significant price behavior, with each candlestick representing a snapshot of price movement. The body (distance between open and close) shows the primary price action, while wicks (shadows) reflect price fluctuations or "noise" around this movement.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: A higher-timeframe (HTF) candlestick can be dissected into smaller, structured price movements in lower timeframes (LTFs). By analyzing these smaller movements, traders gain a detailed view of the market’s progression within the HTF candlestick’s range. Each HTF candlestick’s high and low provide support and resistance levels on the LTF, where the price can "sweep," break out, or retest these levels.
Market Behavior within the Range: Price action within a range doesn’t move randomly; it follows structured behavior, often revealing patterns. By analyzing these patterns, CRT provides insights into the market’s intention to accumulate, manipulate, or distribute assets within these ranges. This behavior can indicate future market direction and increase the probability of accurate trading signals.
CRT and ICT Power of 3: Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution (AMD)
A foundational element of our CRT indicator is its combination with ICT’s Power of 3 (Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution or AMD). This approach identifies three stages of market movement:
Accumulation: During this phase, institutions accumulate positions within a tight price range, often leading to sideways movement. Here, price consolidates as institutions carefully enter or exit positions, erasing traces of their intent from public view.
Manipulation: Institutions often use manipulation to create false breakouts, targeting retail traders who enter the market on perceived breakouts or reversals. Manipulation is characterized by liquidity grabs, false breakouts, or stop hunts, as price momentarily moves outside the established range before quickly returning.
Distribution: Following accumulation and manipulation, the distribution phase aligns with the true market direction. Institutions now allow the market to move with the trend, initiating a stronger and more sustained price movement that aligns with their intended position.
This AMD cycle is often observed across multiple timeframes, allowing traders to refine entries and exits by identifying accumulation, manipulation, and distribution phases on smaller timeframes within the range of a higher-timeframe candle. CRT views this cycle as the "heartbeat" of the market—a continuous loop of price movements. With our indicator, you can identify this cycle on your current timeframe, with the signal candle acting as the "manipulation" candle.

Buy/Sell: This allows you to set you daily bias. You can select to only see buys or sells.
Custom Stop Loss: Sets a custom stop loss distance from the entry price (e.g., $100 or $200 away) if the predefined stop loss based on Candle 2’s low/high doesn’t suit your preference.
Take Profit Levels: Choose from three take profit levels:
Optimized Take Profit: Uses an optimized take profit level based on CRT’s recommended exit point.
Take Profit 1: Sets an initial take profit level.
Take Profit 2: Sets a secondary take profit level for a more extended exit target.
Timeframe of Order Block: Select the timeframe of the order block entry, which can be tailored based on the timeframe of the CRT signal.
Risk-to-Reward Filter: Filters trades based on a specified risk-to-reward ratio, using the indicator’s stop loss as the base. This helps to ensure trades meet minimum reward criteria.

Accumulation: During this phase, institutions accumulate positions within a tight price range, often leading to sideways movement. Here, price consolidates as institutions carefully enter or exit positions, erasing traces of their intent from public view.
Manipulation: Institutions often use manipulation to create false breakouts, targeting retail traders who enter the market on perceived breakouts or reversals. Manipulation is characterized by liquidity grabs, false breakouts, or stop hunts, as price momentarily moves outside the established range before quickly returning.
Distribution: Following accumulation and manipulation, the distribution phase aligns with the true market direction. Institutions now allow the market to move with the trend, initiating a stronger and more sustained price movement that aligns with their intended position.
This AMD cycle is often observed across multiple timeframes, allowing traders to refine entries and exits by identifying accumulation, manipulation, and distribution phases on smaller timeframes within the range of a higher-timeframe candle. CRT views this cycle as the "heartbeat" of the market—a continuous loop of price movements. With our indicator, you can identify this cycle on your current timeframe, with the signal candle acting as the "manipulation" candle.
How to Use the AlgoVision CRT Indicator
The AlgoVision CRT Indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying actionable points within the candle range framework. Our indicator operates by generating signals on the close of the second candle, setting up the expectation to trade the third candle as the "manipulation" candle. This is where price movement in a targeted direction typically occurs. Once you receive a signal on candle two's close, you can prepare to execute a trade on the next candle based on the manipulation phase within the CRT framework.
By setting alerts on a higher timeframe, you can receive either bullish or bearish signals that prepare you to enter trades on a lower timeframe. For instance, a bullish signal on the higher timeframe may signal to watch for a setup on the lower timeframe, allowing for precision entries during the accumulation or manipulation phases.
Conclusion By combining CRT with ICT Power of 3, the AlgoVision Indicator allows traders to leverage the CRT candlestick as a versatile tool for identifying potential market moves. This method provides beginners and seasoned traders alike with a robust framework to understand market dynamics and refine trade strategies across timeframes. Setting alerts on the higher timeframe to catch bullish or bearish CRT signals allows you to plan and execute trades on the lower timeframe, aligning your strategy with the broader market flow.
Daily CRTDaily CRT Indicator
The Daily CRT Indicator is a custom technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify and visualize key price patterns on the daily timeframe. Specifically, it detects and marks the "Sweep and Close Inside" pattern, which is a price action pattern that can signal potential trading opportunities.
Key Features:
Pattern Detection:
The indicator detects two specific price action patterns:
Sweep and Close Above: When the current price sweeps above the previous day’s high and closes inside the range, indicating a potential bullish breakout or continuation.
Sweep and Close Below: When the current price sweeps below the previous day’s low and closes inside the range, signaling a potential bearish move.
Horizontal Lines:
The indicator automatically draws horizontal lines at the previous day’s high and low levels whenever a pattern is detected, providing a visual reference for key support and resistance zones.
These lines are displayed in real-time on the chart and adjust dynamically as new patterns form.
Customizable Line Appearance:
Choose the color, thickness, and style (solid, dashed, or dotted) of the lines to fit your preferred chart aesthetic.
Alert System:
The indicator comes with built-in alerts. Set an alert to notify you when the Sweep and Close Inside pattern is detected, helping you stay on top of potential trade setups.
History Management:
Show History: Optionally display the detected patterns on previous bars (past patterns).
Customizable History Duration: Control how far back you want to view the patterns, allowing you to adjust for a cleaner chart and focus on the most recent setups.
Visual Labels:
When the pattern is detected, the indicator can display a label under the bar (customizable) to highlight the occurrence of the pattern, making it easier for traders to spot potential trade signals.
Built for the Daily Timeframe:
This indicator is specifically designed to work on the daily timeframe and is ideal for swing traders and longer-term traders who are focused on the daily price action and want to capture patterns that indicate potential market reversals or breakouts.
How It Works:
The indicator monitors the previous day's price action and looks for situations where the current price action either sweeps the previous day's high or low and then closes inside the range of the previous day's bar. This type of price movement can often signal that a reversal or continuation is about to occur. The indicator marks these setups by drawing horizontal lines and optionally displays labels for quick identification.
Settings & Customization:
Line Color: Customize the color of the lines marking the previous day’s high and low.
Line Thickness: Choose from different thickness levels for better visibility.
Line Style: Pick from solid, dashed, or dotted styles.
Show History: Toggle the display of historical patterns, with the option to control how many days back to show.

FxCanli RangeFxCanli Range is an indicator based on ICT Internal Range and External Range concept.
What is ICT Internal Range Liquidity?
The Fair Value Gap is marked as the ICT internal range liquidity.
ICT Fair Value Gap is marked as the liquidity because it is a formation of three candles leaving an area between high and low of 1st and 3rd candle where price do not overlap.
FxCanli Range Indicator draws all Internal Ranges above explaining the ICT internal range liquidity.
What is Imbalance (FVG)?
Fair Value Gaps are price jumps caused by imbalanced buying and selling pressures.
A bullish Fair Value Gap is created when there is a gap between the high of the first candle and the low of the third candle.
A bearish Fair Value Gap is created when there is a gap between the low of the first candle and the high of the third candle.
What is ICT External Range Liquidity?
The swing high and swing low of an ICT dealing range are termed as external range.
The high of an ICT dealing range is termed as “buy side liquidity” assuming the buy stops rest above the high of dealing range.
While the low of an ICT dealing range is known as “sell side liquidity” assuming the sell stops resting below the low of dealing range.
FxCanli Range Indicator draws all External Ranges above explaining the ICT external range liquidity
🔶 USAGE & EXAMPLES
As ICT said us, Price moves 2 side, Internal Liquidity or External Liquidity
External Range Liquidity to Internal Range Liquidity
When price reached to External Range, it will sweep the External Range Liquidity
at that time, we have to wait price to reverse and start to move to Internal range liquidity (FVG)
our strategy has to be like this; we have to open 2 time less lower time frame
if we are at 1 hour chart, we have to open 1Hour - 15 min - 5 min chart
and wait for Trend Reversal pattern at there
Internal Range Liquidity to External Range Liquidity
When price reached to Internal Range(FVG), it will fill the imbalance
at that time, we have to wait price to reverse and start to move to External Range Liquidity.
Again we have to decrease our time frame 2 times.
if we are at 1 hour chart, we have to open 1Hour -> 15 min -> 5 min chart
and wait for Trend Reversal pattern at there

Volumetric Rejection Blocks [UAlgo]The Volumetric Rejection Blocks is designed to help traders identify and visualize key price levels where volumetric rejections occur, which may indicate a shift in market sentiment. These rejections can signal potential trend reversals or areas where price action is likely to face support or resistance. By drawing rejection blocks based on volumetric strength, the indicator allows users to observe where significant buying or selling pressure has been exerted, which can be used as a reference point for future price action.
Also indicator dynamically calculates swing highs and lows, analyzes bullish and bearish strengths based on volume-weighted price movements, and displays rejection blocks on the chart. Each rejection block represents an area where the price attempted to move beyond a certain level but faced rejection, either on a close or wick basis. This can be particularly useful for traders who rely on market structure and order flow to make informed decisions about entering or exiting trades.
🔶 Key Features
Swing Length Customization: Allows users to define the swing length, helping tailor the sensitivity of the swing high and low detection to the specific market conditions.
Rejection Block Visualization: Displays up to the last 10 rejection blocks based on user settings, clearly marking areas of significant bullish or bearish rejections.
Volumetric Strength Analysis: The indicator calculates bullish and bearish strength for each rejection block, based on volume-weighted price movements over the last few bars, giving insight into the intensity of the rejection.
Violation Check Type: Offers two options for violation detection—"Close" and "Wick". This allows traders to specify whether a price level is considered broken only if it closes beyond the level or if any wick breaches it.
Bullish and Bearish Block Coloring: Rejection blocks are colored to represent bullish (green) and bearish (red) rejection areas. The color transparency can be adjusted for clear visibility overlaid on the price chart.
Market Structure Labels: Labels and lines marking "Market Structure Shift" (MSS) and "Break of Structure" (BOS) are displayed, giving traders context about significant market structure changes.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Rejection Blocks: These colored blocks on the chart indicate areas where the price faced significant buying or selling pressure. A green block suggests a bullish rejection (support zone), where buyers absorbed the sell-off, potentially pushing the price upward. Conversely, a red block indicates a bearish rejection (resistance zone), where sellers overpowered buyers, potentially driving the price lower.
Strength Analysis: The width of the green and red sections within a rejection block represents the relative bullish and bearish strengths. A wider green section indicates stronger bullish support, while a wider red section suggests more robust bearish resistance. This helps traders gauge the likelihood of price holding or breaching these levels.
Market Structure Shift (MSS) and Break of Structure (BOS): The indicator automatically detects and labels significant changes in market structure. An "MSS" label indicates the first break, suggesting a potential shift in trend direction. A "BOS" label indicates a subsequent confirmation in trend direction, allowing traders to recognize potential trend continuations.
Violation Check: Traders can choose how to interpret breaks of these rejection blocks. Using the "Close" option provides a more conservative approach, requiring a close beyond the level for confirmation. The "Wick" option is more aggressive, treating any wick beyond the level as a break.

Inversion Fair Value Gap Oscillator | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the new Inversion Fair Value Gap Oscillator (IFVG Oscillator) indicator! This unique indicator identifies and tracks Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) in price action, presenting them in an oscillator format to reveal market momentum based on IFVG strength. It highlights bullish and bearish IFVGs while enabling traders to adjust detection sensitivity and apply volume and ATR-based filters for more precise setups. For more information about the process, check the "📌 HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new IFVG Oscillator:
Fully Customizable FVG & IFVG Detection
An Oscillator Approach To IFVGs
Divergence Markers For Potential Reversals
Alerts For Divergence Labels
Customizable Styling
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK?
Fair Value Gaps are price gaps within bars that indicate inefficiencies, often filled as the market retraces. An Inversion Fair Value Gap is created in the opposite direction once a FVG gets invalidated. The IFVG Oscillator scans historical bars to identify these gaps, then filters them based on ATR or volume. Each IFVG is marked as bullish or bearish according to the opposite direction of the original FVG that got invalidated.
An oscillator is calculated using recent IFVGs with this formula :
1. The Oscillator starts as 0.
2. When a new IFVG Appears, it contributes (IFVG Width / ATR) to the oscillator of the corresponding type.
3. Each confirmed bar, the oscillator is recalculated as OSC = OSC * (1 - Decay Coefficient)
The oscillator aggregates and decays past IFVGs, allowing recent IFVG activity to dominate the signal. This approach emphasizes current market momentum, with oscillations moving bullish or bearish based on IFVG intensity. Divergences are marked where IFVG oscillations suggest potential reversals. Bullish Divergence conditions are as follows :
1. The current candlestick low must be the lowest of last 25 bars.
2. Net Oscillator (Shown in gray line by default) must be > 0.
3. The current Bullish IFVG Oscillator value should be no more than 0.1 below the highest value from the last 25 bars.
Traders can use divergence signals to get an idea of potential reversals, and use the Net IFVG Oscillator as a trend following marker.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
The Inversion Fair Value Gap Oscillator stands out by converting IFVG activity into an oscillator format, providing a momentum-based visualization of IFVGs that reveals market sentiment dynamically. Unlike traditional indicators that statically mark IFVG zones, the oscillator decays older IFVGs over time, showing only the most recent, relevant activity. This approach allows for real-time insight into market conditions and potential reversals based on oscillating IFVG strength, making it both intuitive and powerful for momentum trading.
Another unique feature is the combination of customizable ATR and volume filters, letting traders adapt the indicator to match their strategy and market type. You can also set-up alerts for bullish & bearish divergences.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Decay Coefficient -> The decay coefficient for oscillators. Increasing this setting will result in oscillators giving the weight to recent IFVGs, while decreasing it will distribute the weight equally to the past and recent IFVGs.
2. Fair Value Gaps
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for FVG Zone Invalidation.
Zone Filtering -> With "Average Range" selected, algorithm will find FVG zones in comparison with average range of last bars in the chart. With the "Volume Threshold" option, you may select a Volume Threshold % to spot FVGs with a larger total volume than average.
FVG Detection -> With the "Same Type" option, all 3 bars that formed the FVG should be the same type. (Bullish / Bearish). If the "All" option is selected, bar types may vary between Bullish / Bearish.
Detection Sensitivity -> You may select between Low, Normal or High FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivies resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivies resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
3. Inversion Fair Value Gaps
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for IFVG Zone Invalidation.
4. Style
Divergence Labels On -> You can switch divergence labels to show up on the chart or the oscillator plot.
ICT Setup 02 [TradingFinder] Breaker Blocks + Reversal Candles🔵 Introduction
The "Breaker Block" concept, widely utilized in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) technical analysis, is a crucial tool for identifying reversal points and significant market shifts. Originating from the "Order Block" concept, Breaker Blocks help traders pinpoint support and resistance levels. These blocks are essential for understanding market trends and recognizing optimal entry and exit points.
A Breaker Block is essentially a failed Order Block that changes its role when price action breaks through it. When an Order Block fails to hold as a support or resistance level, it reverses its function, becoming a Breaker Block.
There are two primary types : Bullish Breaker Blocks and Bearish Breaker Blocks. These Breaker Blocks align with the prevailing market trend and indicate potential entry points after a liquidity sweep or a shift in market structure.
Understanding and applying the Breaker Block strategy enables traders to capitalize on the behavior of institutional investors, enhancing their trading outcomes.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The ICT Setup 02 indicator designed to automate the identification of Bullish and Bearish Breaker Blocks. This tool enables traders to easily spot these blocks on a chart and utilize them for entering or exiting trades. Below is a breakdown of how to use this indicator in both bullish and bearish setups.
🟣 Bullish Breaker Block Setup
A Bullish Breaker Block setup is identified in an uptrend, where it serves as a potential entry point. This setup occurs when a Bearish Order Block fails and the price moves above the high of that Order Block. In this scenario, the previously bearish Order Block turns into a Bullish Breaker Block, which now acts as a support level for the price.
To trade a Bullish Breaker Block, wait for the price to retest this newly formed support level. Confirmation of the uptrend can be achieved by analyzing lower time frames for further market structure shifts or other bullish indicators.
A successful retest of the Bullish Breaker Block provides a high-probability entry point for a long trade, as it signals institutional support. Traders often place their stop-loss below the low of the Breaker Block zone to minimize risk.
🟣 Bearish Breaker Block Setup
A Bearish Breaker Block setup, conversely, is used in a downtrend to identify potential sell opportunities. This setup forms when a Bullish Order Block fails, and the price moves below the low of that Order Block.
Once this Order Block is broken, it reverses its role and becomes a Bearish Breaker Block, providing resistance to the price as it pushes downward. For a Bearish Breaker Block trade, wait for the price to retest this resistance level.
A confirmation of the downtrend, such as a market structure shift on a lower time frame or additional bearish signals, strengthens the setup. The Bearish Breaker Block retest provides an opportunity to enter a short position, with a stop-loss placed just above the high of the Breaker Block zone.
🔵 Settings
Pivot Period : This setting controls the look-back period used to identify pivot points that contribute to the detection of Order Blocks. A higher period captures longer-term pivots, while a lower period focuses on more recent price action. Adjusting this parameter allows traders to fine-tune the indicator to match their trading time frame.
Breaker Block Validity Period : This setting defines how long a Breaker Block remains valid based on the number of bars elapsed since its formation. Increasing the validity period keeps Breaker Blocks active for a longer duration, which can be useful for higher time frame analysis.
Mitigation Level BB : This option lets traders choose the level of the Order Block at which the price is expected to react. Options like "Proximal," "50% OB," and "Distal" adjust the zone where a reaction may occur, offering flexibility in setting up the entry and stop-loss levels.
Breaker Block Refinement : The refinement option refines the Breaker Block zone to display a more precise range for aggressive or defensive trading approaches. The "Aggressive" mode provides a tighter range for risk-tolerant traders, while the "Defensive" mode expands the zone for those with a more conservative approach.
🔵 Conclusion
The Breaker Block indicator provides traders with a sophisticated tool for identifying key reversal zones in the market. By leveraging Breaker Blocks, traders can gain insights into institutional order flow and predict critical support and resistance levels.
Using Breaker Blocks in conjunction with other ICT concepts, like Fair Value Gaps or liquidity sweeps, enhances the reliability of trading signals. This indicator empowers traders to make informed decisions, aligning their trades with institutional moves in the market.
As with any trading strategy, it is crucial to incorporate proper risk management, using stop-losses and position sizing to minimize potential losses. The Breaker Block strategy, when applied with discipline and thorough analysis, serves as a powerful addition to any trader’s toolkit.

Implied Fair Value Gap (IFVG) ICT [TradingFinder] Hidden FVG OTE🔵 Introduction
The Implied Fair Value Gap (IFVG) is distinctive due to its unique three-candlestick formation, which differentiates it from conventional Fair Value Gaps.
Implied fair value represents an estimated worth of an asset—often a business or its goodwill—based on the price likely to be received in a structured transaction between market participants at a specific point in time.
In the ever-evolving world of technical analysis, pinpointing price reversal points and market anomalies can significantly enhance trading strategies and decision-making for traders and investors. Among the advanced concepts gaining traction in this field is the Implied Fair Value Gap (IFVG), introduced by the renowned analyst Inner Circle Trader (ICT).
This tool has proven to be an effective method for identifying hidden supply and demand zones in financial markets, offering a unique edge to traders looking for high-probability setups.
Unlike traditional gaps that are visible on price charts, IFVG is a hidden gap that doesn’t appear explicitly on the chart and thus requires specialized technical analysis tools for accurate identification.
This hidden gap can signal potential price reversals and offers traders insight into high-liquidity areas where price is likely to react. This article will guide you through using the ICT Implied Fair Value Gap Indicator effectively, covering its settings, usage strategies, and key features to help you make informed decisions in the market.
🟣 Bullish Implied FVG
🟣 Bearish Implied FVG
🔵 How to Use
The IFVG indicator is designed to assist traders in recognizing hidden support and resistance zones by identifying Bullish and Bearish IFVG patterns. With this tool, traders can make better-informed decisions about suitable entry and exit points for their trades based on these patterns.
🟣 Bullish Implied Fair Value Gap
This pattern occurs in an uptrend when a large bullish candlestick forms, with the wicks of the previous and following candles overlapping the body of the central candlestick.
This overlap creates a demand zone or a hidden support level, which can act as an ideal entry point for buy trades. Often, when the price returns to this area, it is likely to resume its upward trend, presenting a profitable buying opportunity.
🟣 Bearish Implied Fair Value Gap
This pattern is similar but forms in downtrends. Here, a large bearish candlestick appears on the chart, with the wicks of adjacent candles overlapping its body. This overlap defines a supply zone or a hidden resistance level and serves as a signal for potential sell trades.
When the price returns to this zone, it often continues its downward trend, providing an optimal point for entering sell trades.
The IFVG indicator also includes various filters that traders can use to refine their analysis based on market conditions. These filters, including Very Aggressive, Aggressive, Defensive, and Very Defensive, allow users to customize the IFVG zones' width, offering flexibility according to the trader’s risk tolerance and trading style.
🟣 Example Trading Scenarios
Suppose you’re in a strong uptrend and the IFVG indicator identifies a Bullish IFVG zone. In this scenario, you could consider entering a buy trade when the price retraces to this zone, expecting the uptrend to resume. Conversely, in a downtrend, a Bearish IFVG zone can signal a favorable entry point for short trades when the price revisits this area.
🔵 Settings
Implied Block Validity Period: This parameter specifies the validity period of each identified block, taking into account the number of bars that have passed since its formation. Proper adjustment of this period helps traders focus only on relevant zones, increasing the accuracy of the analysis.
Mitigation Level OB : This option defines the mitigation level for supply and demand blocks (Order Blocks), with settings including Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal.
Depending on the selected level, the indicator will focus on closer, mid-range, or farther points for block identification, allowing traders to adjust for the level of precision required.
Implied Filter : Activating this filter allows traders to apply conditions based on the width of the IFVG zones. With options like Very Aggressive and Very Defensive, traders can control the width of IFVG zones to suit their risk management strategy—whether they prefer high-risk setups or low-risk setups.
Display and Color Settings : This section enables users to customize the appearance of the IFVG zones on their charts. Traders can set different colors for Bullish and Bearish zones, allowing for easier distinction and improved visualization.
Alert Settings : One of the standout features of the IFVG indicator is the alert system. By setting up alerts, users can be notified whenever the price approaches a demand or supply zone.
Alerts can be customized to trigger Once Per Bar (one alert per bar) or Per Bar Close (alert at the close of each bar), ensuring that traders stay updated on critical price movements without needing to monitor the chart continuously.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Implied Fair Value Gap (IFVG) indicator is a powerful and sophisticated tool in technical analysis, allowing professional traders to identify hidden supply and demand zones and use them as entry and exit points for buy and sell trades.
This indicator’s automatic detection of IFVG zones helps traders uncover hidden trading opportunities that can enhance their analysis.
While the IFVG indicator offers numerous advantages, it is important to use it in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and sound risk management practices.
IFVG alone does not guarantee profitability in trading; it works best when combined with other indicators such as volume analysis and trend-following indicators for a comprehensive trading strategy.

Fair Value Gap Oscillator | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the new Fair Value Gap Oscillator (FVG Oscillator) indicator! This unique indicator identifies and tracks Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) in price action, presenting them in an oscillator format to reveal market momentum based on FVG strength. It highlights bullish and bearish FVGs while enabling traders to adjust detection sensitivity and apply volume and ATR-based filters for more precise setups. For more information about the process, check the "📌 HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new FVG Oscillator:
Fully Customizable FVG Detection
An Oscillator Approach To FVGs
Divergence Markers For Potential Reversals
Alerts For Divergence Labels
Customizable Styling
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK?
Fair Value Gaps are price gaps within bars that indicate inefficiencies, often filled as the market retraces. The FVG Oscillator scans historical bars to identify these gaps, then filters them based on ATR or volume. Each FVG is marked as bullish or bearish according to the trend direction that preceded its formation.
An oscillator is calculated using recent FVGs with this formula :
1. The Oscillator starts as 0.
2. When a new FVG Appears, it contributes (FVG Width / ATR) to the oscillator of the corresponding type.
3. Each confirmed bar, the oscillator is recalculated as OSC = OSC * (1 - Decay Coefficient)
The oscillator aggregates and decays past FVGs, allowing recent FVG activity to dominate the signal. This approach emphasizes current market momentum, with oscillations moving bullish or bearish based on FVG intensity. Divergences are marked where FVG oscillations suggest potential reversals. Bullish Divergence conditions are as follows :
1. The current candlestick low must be the lowest of last 25 bars.
2. Net Oscillator (Shown in gray line by default) must be > 0.
3. The current Bullish FVG Oscillator value should be no more than 0.1 below the highest value from the last 25 bars.
Traders can use divergence signals to get an idea of potential reversals, and use the Net FVG Oscillator as a trend following marker.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
The Fair Value Gap Oscillator stands out by converting FVG activity into an oscillator format, providing a momentum-based visualization of FVGs that reveals market sentiment dynamically. Unlike traditional indicators that statically mark FVG zones, the oscillator decays older FVGs over time, showing only the most recent, relevant activity. This approach allows for real-time insight into market conditions and potential reversals based on oscillating FVG strength, making it both intuitive and powerful for momentum trading.
Another unique feature is the combination of customizable ATR and volume filters, letting traders adapt the indicator to match their strategy and market type. You can also set-up alerts for bullish & bearish divergences.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Decay Coefficient -> The decay coefficient for oscillators. Increasing this setting will result in oscillators giving the weight to recent FVGs, while decreasing it will distribute the weight equally to the past and recent FVGs.
2. Fair Value Gaps
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for FVG Zone Invalidation.
Zone Filtering -> With "Average Range" selected, algorithm will find FVG zones in comparison with average range of last bars in the chart. With the "Volume Threshold" option, you may select a Volume Threshold % to spot FVGs with a larger total volume than average.
FVG Detection -> With the "Same Type" option, all 3 bars that formed the FVG should be the same type. (Bullish / Bearish). If the "All" option is selected, bar types may vary between Bullish / Bearish.
Detection Sensitivity -> You may select between Low, Normal or High FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivies resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivies resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
3. Style
Divergence Labels On -> You can switch divergence labels to show up on the chart or the oscillator plot.
Immediate Rebalance ICT [TradingFinder] No Imbalances - MTF Gaps🔵 Introduction
The concept of "Immediate Rebalance" in technical analysis is a powerful and advanced strategy within the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) framework, widely used to identify key market levels.
Unlike the "Fair Value Gap," which leaves a price gap requiring a retracement for a fill, an Immediate Rebalance fills the gap immediately, representing an instant balance that strengthens the prevailing market trend. This structure allows traders to quickly spot critical price zones, capitalizing on strong trend continuations without the need for price retracement.
The "Immediate Rebalance ICT" indicator leverages this concept, providing traders with automated identification of critical supply and demand zones, order blocks, liquidity voids, and key buy-side and sell-side liquidity levels.
Through features like crucial liquidity points and immediate rebalancing areas, this tool enables traders to perform precise real-time market analysis and seize profitable opportunities.
🔵 How to Use
The Immediate Rebalance indicator assists traders in identifying reliable trading signals by detecting and analyzing Immediate Rebalance zones. By focusing on supply and demand areas, the indicator pinpoints optimal entry and exit positions.
Here’s how to use the indicator in both bearish (Supply Immediate Rebalance) and bullish (Demand Immediate Rebalance) structures :
🟣 Bullish Structure (Demand Immediate Rebalance)
In a bullish scenario, the indicator detects a Demand Immediate Rebalance formed by two consecutive bullish candles with overlapping wicks. This structure signifies an immediate demand zone, where price instantly balances within the zone, reducing the likelihood of a revisit and indicating potential upside momentum.
Zone Identification : Look for two consecutive bullish candles with overlapping wicks, forming a demand zone. This structure, due to its rapid balance, usually does not require a revisit and supports further upward movement.
Entry and Exit Levels : If price revisits this zone, percentage markers, particularly 50% and 75%, act as supportive levels, creating ideal entry points for long positions.
Example : In the second image, an example of a Demand Immediate Rebalance is shown, where overlapping bullish candle shadows indicate immediate balance, supporting the continuation of the bullish trend.
🟣 Bearish Structure (Supply Immediate Rebalance)
In a bearish setup, the indicator identifies a Supply Immediate Rebalance when two consecutive bearish candles with overlapping wicks appear. This formation signals an immediate supply zone, suggesting a high probability of trend continuation to the downside, with minimal expectation for price to retrace back to this area.
Zone Identificatio n: Look for two consecutive bearish candles with overlapping shadows. This structure forms a supply area where price is expected to continue its downtrend without revisiting the zone.
Entry and Exit Level s: Should price revisit this zone, percentage-based levels (e.g., 50% and 75%) serve as potential resistance points, optimizing entry for short positions, especially if the downtrend is expected to persist.
Example : The attached chart illustrates a Supply Immediate Rebalance, where overlapping candle shadows define this area, reassuring traders of a continued downward trend with a low likelihood of price returning to this zone.
🔵 Settings
ImmR Filter : This filter allows users to adjust the detection of Immediate Rebalance zones in four modes, from "Very Aggressive" to "Very Defensive," based on zone width. The chosen mode controls the sensitivity of Immediate Rebalance detection, allowing users to fine-tune the indicator to their trading style.
Multi Time Frame : Enabling this option allows users to set the indicator to a specific timeframe (1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, daily, weekly, or monthly), broadening the perspective for identifying Immediate Rebalance zones across multiple timeframes.
🔵 Conclusion
The Immediate Rebalance indicator, based on rapid balancing zones within supply and demand areas, serves as a powerful tool for market analysis and improving trade decision-making.
By accurately identifying zones where price achieves instant balance without gaps, the indicator highlights areas likely to support strong trend continuations, exempt from common retracements.
The indicator’s use of percentage levels enables traders to pinpoint optimal entry and exit points more effectively, with levels like 50% and 75% acting as support within demand zones and resistance within supply zones. This empowers traders to ride strong trends without the worry of abrupt reversals.
Overall, the Immediate Rebalance is a reliable tool for both professional and beginner traders seeking precise methods to recognize supply and demand zones, capitalizing on consistent trends.
By choosing appropriate settings and focusing on the zones highlighted by this indicator, traders can enter trades with greater confidence and improve their risk management.
ICT Open Range Gap & 1st FVG (fadi)In his 2024 mentorship program, ICT detailed how price action interacts with Open Range Gaps and the initial 1-minute Fair Value Gap following the market open at 9:30 AM.
What is an Open Range Gap?
An Open Range Gap occurs when the market opens at 9:30 AM at a higher or lower level compared to the previous day's close at 4:14 PM, primarily relevant in futures trading. According to ICT, there is a statistical probability of 70% that the price action will close 50% or more of the Open Range Gap within the first 30 minutes of trading (9:30 AM to 10:00 AM).
What is the First 1-Minute Fair Value Gap?
ICT places significant emphasis on the first 1-minute Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms after the market opens at 9:30 AM. The FVG must occur at 9:31 AM or later to be considered valid. This gap often presents key opportunities for traders, as it represents a temporary imbalance between supply and demand that the market seeks to correct.
Understanding and leveraging these patterns can enhance trading strategies by offering insights into potential price movements shortly after market open.
ICT Open Range Gap & 1st FVG
This indicator is engineered to identify and highlight the Open Range Gaps and the first 1-minute Fair Value Gap. Furthermore, it functions across multiple timeframes, from seconds to hours, catering to various trading preferences. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for traders who favor higher timeframes or wish to observe these patterns' application at broader intervals.
Settings
The Open Range Gap indicator offers flexible display settings. It identifies the quadrants and provides optional color coding to distinguish them. Additionally, it tracks the "fill" level to visualize how far the price action has progressed into the gap, enhancing traders' ability to monitor and analyze price movements effectively. By default, the Open Range Gap will stop extending at 10:00 AM; however, there is an option to continue extending until the end of the trading day.
The 1st Fair Value Gap (FVG) can be viewed on any timeframe the indicator is active on, offering various styling options to match each trader's preferences. While the 1st FVG is particularly relevant to the day it is created, previous 1st FVGs within the same week may provide additional value. This indicator allows traders to extend Monday's 1st FVG, marking the first FVG of the week, or to extend all 1st FVGs throughout the week.
