EonMetrics Liquidity ToolkitLiquidity Toolkit by EonMetrics
WHAT IT DOES
Whenever price makes a swing high or a swing low, a cluster of pending stop orders tends to sit just beyond it — buy-stop orders resting just above a swing high, and sell-stop orders resting just below a swing low. This is what traders call "liquidity." Large market participants often push price briefly through one of these levels to trigger those resting orders (grabbing the liquidity) before reversing back the other way — which is why these levels frequently mark turning points, not just breakout points.
This indicator finds and tracks these levels automatically:
- Buyside Liquidity (BSL) — the resting buy-stop cluster above a swing high, drawn as a line until price reaches it.
- Sellside Liquidity (SSL) — the resting sell-stop cluster below a swing low, drawn the same way.
- Equal Highs / Equal Lows (EQH / EQL) — when two or more swing highs (or lows) line up at almost the same price, that's a bigger, more obvious pool of resting orders (a double or triple top/bottom) — a stronger magnet for price than a single level.
- Liquidity Sweep — the actual moment a level gets taken: a wick pierces through it and price closes back on the original side. This can optionally require above-average volume on that candle, so you only see genuine, forceful grabs instead of every minor wick poke.
- Previous Day/Week High & Low (PDH / PDL / PWH / PWL) — the same tracking and sweep logic applied to yesterday's and last week's high/low, which tend to be some of the largest, most-watched liquidity targets of all.
Every level also shows a strength tag — the actual volume traded when it formed, plus how many times average that is (e.g. "340k (2.3x)") — so you can tell a level that formed with real conviction from one that formed on a quiet, unremarkable candle.
HOW TO ACTUALLY USE IT (STEP BY STEP)
1. Decide which side you're watching, then wait for the actual sweep — don't trade a level just because it's sitting there on the chart.
- Looking to go short? Find a Buyside Liquidity (BSL) level (or an Equal High) sitting above the current price, and wait for the sweep marker to appear — a wick punches through it, then price closes back below it.
- Looking to go long? Find a Sellside Liquidity (SSL) level (or an Equal Low) sitting below the current price, and wait for the sweep marker there — a wick punches through it, then price closes back above it.
2. Give extra weight to Equal Highs/Lows (marked EQH/EQL, especially ones with a "x2" or "x3" touch count) and to the Previous Day/Week High/Low lines — these are the bigger, more heavily-defended levels, so a sweep there tends to matter more than a sweep of a single minor swing.
3. Check the strength label on the swept level before acting — a sweep that happened on 2x average volume or higher is a far more convincing signal of a genuine reversal than one on below-average volume.
4. Treat the sweep as your trigger, not the resting level itself: a Buyside sweep points you toward looking for shorts, a Sellside sweep points you toward looking for longs.
5. Levels that get swept turn gray and dotted automatically — that tells you at a glance which levels have already been taken and are no longer valid targets, versus which ones are still resting and still ahead of price.
EVERY SETTING EXPLAINED
General group
- Swing Length (bars) — how many candles on each side must be lower/higher for a point to count as a real swing. A bigger number only catches major, more significant levels; a smaller number catches minor ones (more levels, more frequently).
- Max Levels Tracked — the maximum number of levels kept on the chart at once. Once you go over this, the oldest one is dropped. Lower this for a cleaner chart and better performance.
Buyside / Sellside Liquidity group
- Show BSL / SSL Levels — master on/off switch for these lines.
- Buyside (BSL) Color / Sellside (SSL) Color — line colors for each type.
- Line Width — thickness of the level lines.
- Line Style — solid, dashed, or dotted.
Equal Highs / Equal Lows group
- Highlight Equal Highs / Lows — turns on the automatic merging of two nearby swing highs (or lows) into one highlighted EQH/EQL pool.
- Equality Tolerance (x ATR) — how close two levels need to be in price (relative to recent volatility) to count as "equal." A larger value merges more loosely (more pairs count as equal); a smaller value requires them to be nearly identical.
- Equal High (EQH) Color / Equal Low (EQL) Color.
- Extend EQH/EQL Right — when off (default), an equal pool is just drawn as a short connector between the two matching swings. When on, it's also projected forward to the right as a live target, the same way single BSL/SSL levels are.
Level Strength group
- Show Level Strength — adds the volume text tag to every level (raw volume plus the multiple vs. the recent average, e.g. "340k (2.3x)"). Equal pools also show how many times that price has been touched (e.g. "EQH x3"). Turn this off for a cleaner look with just the lines and BSL/SSL/EQH/EQL tags.
Liquidity Sweep group
- Show Sweep Markers — turns on the small marker that appears the moment a level is swept.
- Enable Volume Filter — when on, a sweep is only confirmed if the candle that caused it traded on unusually high volume, filtering out weak/low-conviction wicks.
- Volume Multiplier vs. Average — how many times above the average volume that candle must trade to confirm a sweep. Only used when the Volume Filter above is on.
- Volume Lookback (bars) — how many past candles are averaged together to calculate that "average volume" baseline.
- Swept Level Color — the color a level turns once it has been taken, so already-used levels are still visible but clearly distinguished from live ones.
Higher-Timeframe Liquidity (PDH / PDL / PWH / PWL) group
- Show Previous Day High / Low — turns on tracking of yesterday's high and low as full liquidity levels (works on intraday charts only).
- Show Previous Week High / Low — turns on tracking of last week's high and low the same way (works on intraday and daily charts).
- Prev Day (PDH / PDL) Color / Prev Week (PWH / PWL) Color.
- HTF Line Width — thickness of these lines. Thicker by default than regular swing levels, since they're generally the more important reference points.
Labels group
- Show Level Labels — master switch for all the small text tags (BSL / SSL / EQH / EQL) shown on each level.
- Label Size — Tiny, Small, or Normal text size for those tags.

Key Daily Levels by Flip On DipKey Daily Levels marks the reference points most intraday traders watch: the previous day high and low, and the high and low of a session you choose.
Sessions cover New York, London, Tokyo and Sydney, plus a custom option for any other window. Each preset uses the session's local exchange hours and adjusts for daylight saving on its own, so the times stay correct through the year instead of drifting an hour twice a year.
When a session extreme sits at the same price as the previous day high or low, the two are combined into one line instead of being drawn twice. The label then reads something like PDH (NY High), so both are kept without doubling up on the chart.
Each level is drawn from the bar where it formed and runs until price takes it out. The line stops on the exact bar that crossed it. The wick counts, so it doesn't wait for a close. A level still holding is shown solid; once it gets taken it turns dashed and fades, and a small check is dropped on the bar that swept it. A small table in the corner lists each level and whether it has been swept.
Cross detection accounts for gaps, and the trading day is read from each symbol's own calendar rather than a fixed clock, so levels stay accurate on crypto, futures and stocks, on continuous charts and gapped ones alike.
Colors, line styles and width, label options, the sweep marker and the table are all configurable.

SPY/SPX Expected Move + Session Levels📊 Expected Move + Session Levels (SPY / SPX)
Plots the day's expected move band plus the key session levels — automatic, refreshed daily before the open, nothing to enter or maintain.
🔹 Draws: Expected Move High/Low (the one-standard-deviation daily range implied by options pricing, anchored at the prior close), Prior Day High/Low, and Overnight High/Low (from the ES futures overnight session, rescaled to your chart). Optional shaded band and info table.
⚙️ Settings: every level toggles on/off individually; colors, line width, and label size are adjustable. The overnight source, session window, and IV index can be changed, and setting Horizon to 5 with VIX approximates the weekly move. Best on intraday timeframes.
⚠️ Note: the expected move is a statistical estimate, not a boundary — price is expected to close inside the band roughly two days out of three, and beyond it roughly one in three. Treat the edges as context, not walls; the market will go where it chooses. All levels are built from CBOE volatility indices, daily session data, and CME ES futures.

Level Range Scanner-WatchlistLevel Range Scanner — Watchlist
See how price is progressing toward your key levels across an entire watchlist at a glance. No more flipping between 18 charts wondering how much further a stock has to go before it tags premarket or prior-day levels — this scanner draws a live progress bar for every level on every symbol, so you can instantly see what's coiled and about to break.
WHAT IT DOES
Track up to 20 symbols in a single on-chart table. For each ticker it monitors four critical intraday levels and shows you, with a filling progress bar, exactly how close price is to breaking each one:
- PDH — Previous Day High
- PDL — Previous Day Low
- PMH — Premarket High
- PML — Premarket Low
When price has room to run, you see a partially filled bar (more fill = closer to the level). The moment a level breaks, the bar flips to a green dot (high broken) or red dot (low broken) so confirmed breaks jump out instantly.
HOW TO USE IT
1. Add the indicator to any intraday chart (1m–15m works best — it needs intraday data for premarket levels).
2. Open settings and type your tickers into Symbol 01–20. Leave slots blank to hide them.
3. Watch the table. Bars filling toward the top of a range = building pressure toward a breakout; bars filling toward the bottom = pressure toward a breakdown.
4. Set an alert (see below) and let it watch the list for you.
READING THE COLUMNS
- Ticker / Price / Volume — Symbol, last price, and accumulated session volume (auto-formatted K/M/B).
- % Change — Move vs. the prior close — green up, red down.
- PDH / PDL Break — Progress bar from the opposite level toward the prior-day high/low. Green/red dot on break.
- PMH / PML Break — Same idea, for the premarket high/low.
- Trend — Up arrow = price broke BOTH PDH and PMH (bullish trend established). Down arrow = broke BOTH PDL and PML (bearish). Warning icon = mixed / not yet confirmed.
The Trend column is the headline signal: an up or down arrow means a symbol has cleared both its daily AND premarket level in the same direction — a higher-conviction continuation setup than a single-level poke.
ALERTS
Use "LE Scanner Triggered." It fires whenever any watched symbol breaks both its premarket and prior-day level in the same direction (i.e. flips to an up or down arrow). Add it once and the scanner watches all 20 names for you in the background.
SETTINGS
- Table Size / Position — fit it anywhere on your layout.
- Show Empty Rows — keep or hide blank symbol slots.
NOTES
- Levels are calculated using extended-hours data (premarket/after-hours included), so PDH/PDL reflect the full trading day, not regular session only.
- Requires an intraday timeframe for the premarket columns to populate.
- Best on liquid stocks/ETFs where premarket and prior-day levels carry weight.

Key Levels Pro [AGPro Series]Key Levels Pro
🔑 Overview
Key Levels Pro is a comprehensive, non-repainting level tracker that consolidates every institutionally significant price reference into one clean overlay. Previous day, week, and month highs/lows (PDH, PDL, PWH, PWL, PMH, PML) are plotted alongside Asian, London, and New York session highs and lows. Every level is actively monitored — touch count, break count, and respect rate update in real time, giving you a live quality score for each price zone.
Most level scripts stop at drawing lines. Key Levels Pro goes further: lines automatically thicken on repeated touches, switch to dashed style when broken, and fade to muted color to signal invalidation. Zone rectangles extend back to the formation bar of each level, making historical respect visible at a glance. An ATR-aware label collision system keeps the chart readable on every timeframe, and same-price levels are intelligently deduplicated so you never see four overlapping labels at the same price.
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
📐 Unique Edge
Unlike generic pivot or S/R scripts, Key Levels Pro tracks the behavioral quality of each level — not just its existence. A level that has been tested five times without breaking carries a different weight than a fresh, untested one. Key Levels Pro surfaces that difference automatically through line width, style, and panel data.
What makes it distinct:
🔹 Complete previous-period coverage (PDH/PDL, PWH/PWL, PMH/PML) in one overlay, without redundant current-period duplicates.
🔹 Live session tracking for Asian, London, and New York simultaneously, with automatic hiding on Daily and higher timeframes.
🔹 Per-level touch count, break count, and respect rate computed from actual historical price interaction.
🔹 Dynamic line thickening on repeated touches (width 1 → 2 → 3).
🔹 Auto-broken state with dashed style + muted color — no distracting flags or banners.
🔹 Historical zone boxes extending back to the formation bar of each level.
🔹 ATR-aware label collision resolution that stacks overlapping labels vertically.
🔹 Price-based deduplication: when two levels share the same price, the higher-priority one wins (Monthly > Weekly > Daily > Session).
🔹 ATR-normalized proximity to the nearest level above and below the current price.
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
🔬 Methodology
Previous-period levels are pulled from the daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes using request.security() with lookahead enabled for the completed-period values. This approach is standard, transparent, and non-repainting — historical data does not change.
Session levels are tracked bar by bar using customizable session time inputs. Each session resets at its start time and tracks the running high and low until the session closes. The Asian, London, and New York sessions can each be configured independently.
Touch detection uses an ATR-based tolerance band (default 10% of ATR). When price closes within that tolerance of a level, the touch counter increments. A break is registered when price closes on the opposite side of a level compared to the prior bar. Respect rate is calculated as touches / (touches + breaks) × 100.
Line width scales with touch count: 1 touch = width 1, 2–4 touches = width 2, 5+ touches = width 3. Broken levels switch to dashed style and a muted color.
The label collision system operates in three stages: first, all enabled levels are collected into a sorted array; second, same-price levels are deduplicated based on priority (Monthly highest, Session lowest); third, an upward sweep enforces minimum vertical spacing using a blend of ATR and chart-range heuristics, ensuring labels never overlap regardless of market volatility.
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
📊 Signals & States
This script is a visualization and data tool — it does not generate buy or sell signals.
Level states are communicated visually:
🔹 Active (solid line, full color): level has not been broken.
🔹 Touched (thicker line, 2–3px): level has been tested one or more times.
🔹 Broken (dashed line, muted slate color): level has been decisively closed through.
Info panel states:
🔹 Session: active market session (Asian / London / New York / Off-Hours / N/A on Daily+).
🔹 Near Above / Near Below: price of the closest active level on each side of the current close.
🔹 Dist Above / Below ATR: distance expressed as a multiple of ATR(14).
🔹 Touch and respect rate data for PDH, PDL, PWH, PWL.
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
⚙️ Key Inputs
Level Groups: Toggle previous day, week, month, and session levels independently.
Session Times: Fully customizable start/end times for Asian, London, and New York sessions in exchange timezone.
Zone Style: Enable/disable S/R zones and adjust zone transparency.
Lines & Labels: Set line extension length, toggle labels, choose label density (All / Reduced / Minimal), set font size, and enable or disable same-price deduplication.
Info Panel: Toggle panel, set location (six positions), and choose theme (Dark / Light).
ATR Settings: Set ATR period and touch tolerance as an ATR multiple (0.02 to 0.50).
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
📖 How to Use
1. Add the script to a chart — all major levels appear immediately.
2. Adjust session times if trading non-crypto markets.
3. Watch line thickness: thicker = more tested = stronger historical reaction zone.
4. Dashed + muted color = broken. Treat broken levels as potential new S/R from the opposite side (role reversal).
5. Use the panel's Near Above and Near Below fields to gauge proximity before entry or exit decisions.
6. Use "Reduced" density (default) for cleaner charts, or switch to "All" when you need session context.
7. Works on all asset classes: crypto, forex, equities, indices, commodities.
Recommended timeframes: 15m–4H for session levels; 1H–1D for previous-period levels.
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
🔹 Session tracking is session-relative and resets each new session.
🔹 Touch tolerance is an ATR-based heuristic and may need adjustment on extremely low-volatility instruments.
🔹 All data is historical. Touch count and respect rate describe past price behavior, not future outcomes.
🔹 This script is not a trading strategy, does not issue trade signals, and cannot predict market direction.
🔹 On exotic or illiquid instruments with large gaps, formation-bar zone boxes may appear truncated if the level formed outside the chart's visible range.

AG Pro Previous Day Sweep & Reclaim [AGPro Series]AG Pro Previous Day Sweep & Reclaim
Overview / What it does
AG Pro Previous Day Sweep & Reclaim is an overlay built to map one very specific price behavior around the previous day’s range: a sweep of the Previous Day High (PDH) or Previous Day Low (PDL), followed by a reclaim back inside the level.
The script is designed for traders who want a structured way to observe failed expansion attempts around prior-day liquidity. Instead of treating every break of PDH or PDL as continuation, this tool focuses on the opposite question: when price briefly trades beyond a prior-day extreme and then reclaims that level, is the move showing signs of rejection strong enough to deserve attention?
The core idea is intentionally narrow. This is not a broad market-structure engine, not a support/resistance dashboard, and not a general breakout system. Its purpose is to isolate a specific sequence: sweep -> reclaim -> quality assessment. That single workflow helps keep the script readable and functionally distinct.
Signals can be confirmed on the same bar or on the next bar, depending on user preference. Once a reclaim is confirmed, the script assigns a quality score, draws a directional arrow, prints a reclaim label, and keeps the visual structure compact enough for practical chart work across intraday and higher timeframes.
Unique Edge
The distinguishing feature of this script is that it does not simply plot PDH and PDL, and it does not label every break as meaningful. It attempts to separate ordinary range interaction from failed liquidity grabs by requiring reclaim confirmation and then grading the event.
Its logic is centered on reversal-quality mapping rather than static level display. That means the script does more than show where the previous day’s extremes are located. It evaluates whether the move through those extremes was shallow or excessive, whether the reclaim was weak or decisive, whether wick behavior supports rejection, whether volume was comparatively active, and whether the event occurred inside the selected session context.
Another practical edge is the confirmation flexibility. Some traders prefer immediate reclaim behavior on the same bar. Others want one additional bar for confirmation. This script supports both approaches, plus an Either mode for broader detection.
The visual side is also deliberately managed. Reclaim labels, arrows, guide lines, sweep boxes, label spacing controls, visible label limits, and HTF label filtering are included so the output remains usable instead of turning into uncontrolled chart clutter.
Methodology
The script retrieves the previous day’s high and low and tracks live interaction with those two reference levels.
Bullish reclaim logic begins with a downside sweep:
- price trades below the Previous Day Low
- price then closes back above the Previous Day Low
- confirmation can occur on the same bar, on the next bar, or by either method depending on settings
Bearish reclaim logic mirrors that process:
- price trades above the Previous Day High
- price then closes back below the Previous Day High
- confirmation follows the selected reclaim mode
After confirmation, the script computes a quality score from multiple components. These components are intended to give structure to the event rather than to claim certainty about future direction.
The quality model includes:
- sweep depth relative to ATR
- reclaim strength within the bar range
- rejection wick fraction
- relative volume versus a moving average baseline
- bar range relative to ATR
- urgency factor for same-bar versus next-bar confirmation
- candle body bias
- session participation
The final score is normalized to a 0-100 scale and translated into a simple tier:
- A
- B
- C
- D
This score is not meant to be a prediction engine. It is a ranking tool that helps organize reclaim events by relative quality under the script’s own rules.
Session filtering is available because many traders only want to evaluate sweep-and-reclaim behavior during specific active windows. London, New York, custom sessions, or unrestricted monitoring can be selected.
For chart usability, the script also includes:
- previous day range fill
- optional reclaim guide lines
- optional sweep boxes
- reversal arrows
- reclaim labels
- summary panel
- visible label limits
- HTF smart label filtering
- minimum bar spacing between same-side labels
Signals & Alerts
The script produces two primary confirmed event types:
1. Bullish Previous Day Sweep & Reclaim
A downside sweep through PDL followed by a reclaim back above that level.
2. Bearish Previous Day Sweep & Reclaim
An upside sweep through PDH followed by a reclaim back below that level.
When enabled, the chart can display:
- directional reclaim arrows
- reclaim labels with score, tier, and confirmation mode
- sweep zone boxes
- short reclaim guide lines
Built-in alerts are included for:
- Bullish Previous Day Sweep & Reclaim
- Bearish Previous Day Sweep & Reclaim
These alerts are tied to confirmed reclaim conditions defined by the selected confirmation mode and minimum quality threshold.
Key Inputs
Reclaim Confirmation
Choose whether confirmation must occur on the Same Bar, Next Bar, or Either.
One Signal Per Side / Day
Limits repeated signals of the same side within a single day.
Use Session Filter
Restricts detection to the selected session environment when desired.
Minimum Quality Score
Filters out lower-ranked reclaim events.
ATR Length / Volume SMA Length
Inputs used by the quality model.
Ideal Sweep Depth (ATR) / Maximum Sweep Depth (ATR)
Define how the script evaluates sweep depth quality.
Label and Visual Controls
Manage font size, offset, sweep boxes, guide lines, visible label count, and general chart cleanliness.
HTF Smart Label Filter
Helps reduce label overload on daily, weekly, and monthly charts.
Minimum Bars Between Same-Side Labels
Introduces spacing between repeated bullish or bearish reclaim labels to prevent visual stacking.
Limitations & Transparency
This script is an analytical overlay. It is not a strategy, not an execution model, and not a guarantee of reversal.
A reclaim of PDH or PDL can still fail. Markets can continue trending after a sweep, especially during strong directional conditions, news-driven volatility, or low-liquidity distortions. For that reason, the quality score should be interpreted as an internal event-ranking framework, not as proof of future performance.
Session settings matter. Timeframe context matters. Confirmation mode matters. Label filters also affect what is visible on the chart, especially on higher timeframes. Users should understand that changing these inputs changes the strictness and presentation of the output.
This tool does not use order book data, broker-specific execution data, or hidden liquidity metrics. It works entirely from chart-based price and volume inputs available in Pine.
It is also important to note what this script does not attempt to do:
- it does not classify overall market regime
- it does not replace broader structure analysis
- it does not define entries, stops, or exits for the user
- it does not evaluate multi-level confluence outside its own reclaim framework
In short, it is a focused map for previous-day sweep and reclaim behavior, nothing more and nothing less.
Risk Disclosure
This script is for chart analysis and educational use only. It does not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.
All trading decisions involve risk. Past price behavior around previous-day levels does not guarantee future results. Users should apply their own confirmation process, risk management rules, and market context analysis before acting on any chart signal.
Always test settings carefully and use the tool as one component inside a broader decision-making process, not as a standalone basis for trading.

AG Pro PDH PDL PWH PWL Engine [AGPro Series]AG Pro PDH PDL PWH PWL Engine
Overview / What it does
AG Pro PDH PDL PWH PWL Engine is a price-reference overlay built to track prior day, prior week, and prior month high / low levels in a clean and structured way. The script can display PDH, PDL, PWH, PWL, and optionally PMH / PML, together with midpoint equilibrium levels for the selected ranges.
The main purpose of the script is not to predict direction, generate guaranteed entries, or replace a complete trading plan. Its role is narrower and more practical: it helps traders keep important prior-period reference levels visible on the chart, distinguish which levels remain active, and identify which ones have already been traded through. In many markets, prior highs and lows are widely monitored as liquidity, reaction, and reference areas. This script organizes those areas into a format that is easier to read in live conditions.
A core design goal of this tool is chart hygiene. Many prior-level indicators become visually noisy when several daily, weekly, and monthly references are drawn together. This script was designed to keep the structure readable by using a minimal label system, right-extended lines, a swept / unswept state model, and an optional dashboard that summarizes the nearest active daily, weekly, and monthly levels.
The result is a workflow-oriented overlay that helps with context. Instead of forcing interpretation through aggressive signals, it presents a structured map of where important prior-period levels are located, whether they are still untouched, and whether current price is approaching one of them. That makes it suitable for traders who want an objective level engine rather than a directional prediction tool.
Unique Edge
The script focuses on presentation quality and state clarity rather than simple level plotting. Prior highs and lows are not rare concepts, but the practical usefulness of such levels depends heavily on how they are filtered, displayed, and maintained on the chart. This script aims to improve that usability in several ways.
First, it separates active levels from swept levels. This matters because a previously untouched level and a level that has already been traded through do not carry the same contextual value for many traders. By visually differentiating unswept and swept references, the overlay can help reduce ambiguity when reviewing current structure.
Second, it combines multi-period references in one coherent engine. Daily, weekly, and optional monthly levels can all be displayed together, while preserving a relatively clean visual hierarchy. This is particularly useful for traders who want to see whether current price is interacting with short-term references inside larger higher-timeframe ranges.
Third, it includes proximity logic. The script can highlight levels when price is near them using a threshold defined in ticks, percentage, or ATR terms. This does not imply a trade signal by itself. Instead, it acts as a situational awareness feature that helps traders notice when price is entering a predefined level zone.
Fourth, the script offers session and timezone controls. That allows the user to adapt the level-building logic to the exchange clock or to a chosen session definition. For traders who care about session-based construction and consistency across instruments, this can be an important operational detail.
Finally, the panel is designed as a compact summary rather than a decorative feature. It reports the nearest active daily, weekly, and monthly references, shows counts for active and swept levels, and keeps session / timezone / label mode settings visible. The goal is to reduce chart scanning time and make the script easier to use during live analysis.
Methodology
The engine tracks highs and lows from completed prior periods and then projects those values forward as reference lines. Depending on the enabled settings, it can build:
- Previous Day High and Previous Day Low
- Previous Week High and Previous Week Low
- Previous Month High and Previous Month Low
- Optional equilibrium midpoints for each enabled range
Each level is created only after the relevant source period is completed. In that sense, the level itself is based on completed historical range data. Once created, the line is monitored for its state. If price trades through a high reference or a low reference, the script marks that level as swept and changes its visual treatment accordingly.
The script also maintains historical periods up to the number defined in the settings. This makes it possible to preserve a limited amount of recent structure without keeping an unlimited number of stale objects on the chart.
The equilibrium option adds the midpoint of the corresponding prior range. Some traders use these 50% areas as balance references or as secondary context between the prior high and low. Because that midpoint is optional, the user can keep it visible when needed or disable it for a cleaner chart.
The proximity engine measures how close current price is to an active level using one of three methods:
- Tick distance
- Percentage distance
- ATR-based distance
This feature is meant to flag nearness, not to define trade quality on its own. A prior level being near price does not automatically make the setup actionable. It only states that price is close to a tracked reference according to the selected threshold logic.
States / Signals / Alerts
This script is primarily a level-state and context tool. It is not a directional forecasting model. Its most important outputs are state-based:
1) Active level
A level is considered active when it has been created from a completed prior period and has not yet been traded through by price.
2) Swept level
A level is considered swept when price trades through that reference. Visually separating swept levels from active ones helps the chart communicate which prior references remain untouched.
3) Near-level condition
When enabled, the script can highlight active levels that are close to current price according to the user-defined threshold method. This can help traders focus attention on nearby reference zones without scanning the entire chart manually.
4) Compact dashboard state
The panel summarizes the nearest active daily, weekly, and monthly levels, along with active count, swept count, near count, selected timezone, session configuration, and label mode.
The included alert conditions are intentionally simple and state-based:
- Price is near one of the active levels
- At least one tracked level was swept on the current bar
These alerts are meant to support monitoring. They are not, by themselves, a complete trading trigger. Users should interpret them together with structure, volatility, session context, confirmation rules, and their own risk process.
Why this script can be useful
This script can be useful because prior highs and lows often matter most when they are easy to monitor and hard to misread. In practice, traders do not only need the raw numbers; they need a chart presentation that allows those numbers to remain readable during fast market conditions.
A clean prior-level map can help in several common situations:
- Evaluating whether price is approaching an untouched daily or weekly reference
- Checking whether a local move is happening inside a larger higher-timeframe level framework
- Distinguishing still-relevant references from already-tested ones
- Monitoring potential reaction zones without crowding the chart with excessive objects
- Organizing reference structure across intraday and swing workflows
The script is also designed to remain practical over time. Instead of drawing everything with equal visual importance, it uses state logic and summary logic to keep the display more structured. That can make the tool easier to integrate into a routine where prior-period references are part of the trader's contextual process.
Another useful aspect is that the script stays objective. It does not attempt to label every market move with a strong opinion. It shows completed prior-period levels, their current state, and whether price is approaching them. Many traders prefer this kind of neutral reference framework because it can be combined with other methodologies without forcing one interpretation.
Key Inputs
Timezone
The script can use the exchange timezone or a selected timezone. This affects how period transitions are interpreted.
Use Custom Session Filter
When enabled, highs and lows are built only from bars inside the selected session. This allows the user to adapt the range construction to a chosen session framework.
Session
Defines the custom session window when session filtering is enabled.
Show Previous Day / Week / Month Levels
Each group can be enabled or disabled independently so the user can decide how much structure to display.
Show Equilibrium Midpoints
Adds the 50% midpoint of each enabled prior range.
Historical Periods to Keep
Controls how many past periods remain visible on the chart for each enabled level family.
Proximity Threshold Type
Lets the user define nearness by ticks, percentage, or ATR.
Threshold Value / ATR Length
Controls the sensitivity of the proximity logic.
Highlight Levels When Near
Allows visual emphasis when price approaches an active level.
Line Style and Extension Settings
Controls the appearance of unswept and swept lines and whether active lines extend to the right.
Minimal Label Mode
Allows labels to be turned off, restricted, or shown for active levels, depending on the user's preferred chart cleanliness.
Panel Controls
The dashboard can be enabled or disabled and its size, position, and colors can be adjusted.
Example use cases
This script can be used in different ways depending on the trader's workflow.
Intraday context mapping:
A trader may monitor PDH and PDL together with PWH and PWL to understand whether intraday price is moving into untouched daily liquidity while still operating inside a broader weekly range.
Reaction-zone awareness:
A trader may use near-level highlighting to notice when price is approaching an unswept prior high or prior low and then look for separate confirmation with their own method.
Structure filtering:
A trader may ignore swept references and focus mainly on active levels that remain intact, especially when trying to simplify the chart during live sessions.
Session-based reference building:
A trader who prefers a specific session logic can use the session filter so the constructed ranges better match their market framework.
Dashboard monitoring:
A trader may use the panel as a quick situational summary to identify which daily, weekly, or monthly reference is closest without manually reading every line.
Limitations & Transparency
This script does not know why price interacts with a level. It only identifies prior-period references and tracks whether they are active, near, or swept according to the rules defined in the code.
A prior level is not automatically support or resistance in every market condition. Some reactions are meaningful, some are shallow, and some levels are passed through with little response. For that reason, the script should be treated as a structured reference map rather than a self-sufficient trade decision engine.
The near-level logic depends on user-defined thresholds. Different threshold types and values can materially change how often levels are classified as near. Traders should calibrate these settings according to instrument volatility and their own workflow.
Session and timezone choices also matter. The same market can produce different prior-period values depending on how the session is defined. Users should select settings that match the way they analyze the instrument.
Historical object limits, chart timeframe, and chart compression can influence how dense the display appears. A setting that looks clean on one instrument or timeframe may feel crowded on another. The script provides controls to manage that, but users should still adapt it to their own use case.
The midpoint equilibrium lines are optional because not every trader uses 50% references the same way. Their inclusion does not imply that the midpoint has universal predictive value. It is simply provided as an additional structural reference.
This script is intentionally conservative in what it claims. It does not claim to detect institutional intent, hidden order flow, or guaranteed reversals. It displays prior completed reference levels and their current state on the chart.
Risk Disclosure
This script is for chart analysis and educational use. It does not provide financial advice, investment advice, or trade recommendations.
Prior-period highs, lows, and midpoint references can be useful market context, but they are not guarantees of reaction, reversal, continuation, or liquidity behavior. Market conditions can change quickly, and price can move through any level without producing a tradable setup.
Users should combine this tool with their own confirmation process, execution rules, position sizing framework, and risk management. No indicator should be used as the sole basis for entering or exiting a trade.
Before using any chart tool in live markets, it is important to understand how its settings affect output, how it behaves on the instrument being traded, and how it fits into a broader decision process.
AG Pro PDH PDL PWH PWL Engine is designed to help organize prior-period level information in a cleaner and more operational format. Its value comes from clarity, state tracking, and context support, not from predictive certainty.

Killzone Cartograph [JOAT]Killzone Cartograph
Introduction
Killzone Cartograph is an advanced open-source session structure mapper built around ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts. It automatically detects and renders the major institutional trading sessions — Asia, London, New York, and London Close — as color-coded boxes on the chart, calculates deviation projections from session ranges, tracks the New York Midnight Open as a key reference level, measures session dominance, detects session overlaps, and provides session bias signals. The indicator transforms raw time-of-day data into a structured visual map of when and where institutional activity concentrates.
The reason this indicator exists is that price does not move randomly throughout the day. Institutional order flow clusters around specific session windows — the "killzones" — where liquidity is deepest and the largest moves originate. Retail traders who ignore session structure often enter during low-liquidity periods (getting chopped) or miss the high-probability windows entirely. Killzone Cartograph makes session structure visible so traders can align their activity with institutional timing.
Core Concepts
1. Session Killzone Detection and Rendering
Each session is defined by a time window and timezone. The indicator detects when the current bar falls within each session and renders a box from the session's high to low, extending as the session progresses:
Asia Session: Typically 2000-0000 NY time. Often establishes the initial range that London and New York will sweep
London Session: Typically 0200-0500 NY time. The first major liquidity injection of the day, frequently setting the daily direction
New York Session: Typically 0700-1000 NY time. The highest-volume window where the London move is either confirmed or reversed
London Close: Typically 1000-1200 NY time. A secondary window where institutional position management creates distinct price patterns
Each session box is rendered with a distinct color from a muted institutional palette — tyrian violet for Asia, cardinal for London, cerulean for New York, and gunmetal for London Close. Box borders use the session color while fills use high transparency to avoid obscuring price action.
2. Deviation Projections
Once a session's range is established, the indicator projects deviation levels above and below the session high and low. These projections use configurable multipliers of the session range to identify where price might reach if it breaks out of the session box. This concept is rooted in the ICT framework where session ranges serve as measuring sticks for subsequent moves:
float sessionRange = sessionHigh - sessionLow
float devUp = sessionHigh + sessionRange * deviationMult
float devDn = sessionLow - sessionRange * deviationMult
Deviation levels are drawn as dashed lines extending from the session box, providing visual targets for breakout moves.
3. New York Midnight Open Reference
The NY Midnight Open (the opening price at 00:00 New York time) is a key ICT reference level. It serves as a daily bias marker — price above the midnight open suggests bullish daily bias, below suggests bearish. The indicator tracks this level and draws it as a horizontal reference line across the chart. Many institutional algorithms reference this level for daily positioning decisions.
4. Session Dominance and Overlap Detection
The indicator tracks which session produces the largest range each day and identifies it as the "dominant" session. It also detects when sessions overlap (London/New York overlap is particularly significant as it produces the highest liquidity of the day). Overlap periods are highlighted because they often generate the most significant price moves.
5. Session Bias Signals
At the close of each session, the indicator evaluates the session's price action to determine bias:
If the session closed in its upper third with expanding range, bullish bias is assigned
If the session closed in its lower third with expanding range, bearish bias is assigned
Otherwise, neutral bias is assigned
These bias arrows appear at session boundaries to provide quick directional context for the next session.
6. Killzone Strength Scoring
Each killzone receives a strength score based on the session's range relative to the daily ATR, volume during the session, and whether the session produced a directional move or just chopped. Higher scores indicate more significant sessions that are more likely to set the tone for subsequent price action.
Features
Session Box Rendering: Automatically drawn boxes for each session with configurable colors, extending as the session progresses and finalizing at session close
Deviation Projection Lines: Dashed lines at configurable multiples of the session range, projecting potential breakout targets
NY Midnight Open Line: Persistent horizontal reference at the 00:00 NY open price, updated daily
Previous Day High/Low Levels: Horizontal lines marking the prior day's extremes as key support/resistance references
Session Overlap Highlighting: Background coloring during session overlap periods (particularly London/NY overlap)
Dominance Coloring: The dominant session's box receives enhanced visual treatment to stand out
Session Bias Arrows: Directional arrows at session boundaries indicating the session's concluded bias
Killzone Strength Score: Numerical score for each session displayed in the dashboard

How to Use This Indicator
Step 1: Identify the Active Session
The colored box tells you which session is currently active. Focus your trading during the session windows where you have the most experience and where your strategy performs best.
Step 2: Use Session Ranges as Context
The Asia session range often serves as the "initial balance" for the day. Watch for London to sweep one side of the Asia range (a liquidity grab) before establishing the daily direction. The New York session then either confirms or reverses the London move.
Step 3: Trade Deviation Projections
When price breaks out of a session box, the deviation projection lines provide measured-move targets. These are not guaranteed levels but represent statistically common extension distances based on the session's own range.
Step 4: Reference the Midnight Open
Use the NY Midnight Open as a daily bias filter. If price is above the midnight open, favor long setups. If below, favor short setups. This simple filter aligns your trading with the daily institutional bias.
Step 5: Prioritize Overlap Windows
The London/New York overlap (typically 0700-1000 NY time) produces the highest liquidity and often the day's most significant move. This is the highest-probability window for directional trades.

Indicator Limitations
Session times are fixed inputs based on typical institutional schedules. During daylight saving time transitions, session windows may need manual adjustment depending on your broker's timezone handling
Session structure analysis is most relevant for forex, futures, and indices that have distinct session-based liquidity patterns. Crypto markets trade 24/7 with less distinct session boundaries
Deviation projections are statistical tendencies, not guaranteed levels. Price may fall short of or exceed projected deviations
The NY Midnight Open is a reference level, not a support/resistance level with inherent strength. Its significance comes from institutional algorithm behavior, which may vary
Session dominance and bias signals are determined after the session closes, making them useful for context but not for real-time entries within that session
On higher timeframes (4H, Daily), individual session boxes may not render meaningfully as multiple sessions fit within a single candle
Originality Statement
This indicator is original in its comprehensive integration of ICT session concepts into a unified mapping system. While session boxes and killzone detection exist in other scripts, this indicator is justified because:
The deviation projection system uses the session's own range as a measuring stick, providing context-specific targets rather than generic ATR-based projections
Killzone strength scoring quantifies session significance using range, volume, and directional metrics — providing an objective measure not available in simple session box indicators
Session overlap detection with visual highlighting identifies the highest-liquidity windows automatically
The integration of NY Midnight Open, previous day levels, session bias, and dominance tracking into a single tool eliminates the need for multiple separate session indicators
Session bias arrows provide actionable directional context at session boundaries based on multi-factor analysis of the concluded session
The muted institutional color palette and clean box rendering avoid the visual clutter common in session-based indicators
Disclaimer
This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument. Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Session structures, deviation projections, and bias signals are based on historical patterns of institutional activity and do not guarantee future price behavior. Market conditions change, and sessions that historically produced strong moves may not always do so. Always use proper risk management and conduct your own analysis.

Prev day High, Low, Close + continuing trend
📊 Yesterday's Levels: Market Strength and Sentiment (HLC)
This indicator is designed for intraday traders who need to quickly identify the previous day's key levels (High, Low, and Close) and, most importantly, understand the sentiment of the previous session at a glance.
🔍 What does this indicator do?
Unlike other “Daily High/Low” indicators, this tool cleans up historical noise and pre-market gapping to provide a purist view of the regular session.
Real Static Levels: Draws the YHP (Yesterday's High Price), YLP (Yesterday's Low Price), and YCP (Yesterday's Close Price).
No “Steps”: Lines only appear in the current session and start exactly at the market open (RTH), eliminating annoying pre-market tails.
Thirds Strength Analysis: Applies an algorithmic rule based on the location of the close relative to the previous day's total range:
Green Shading (Bullish Strength): If the price closed in the upper third of the range (dominant buying pressure).
Red Shading (Bearish Strength): If the price closed in the lower third of the range (dominant selling pressure).
No color: If the close was neutral (in the middle third).
### 💡 How to use it?
* **Trend Continuity**: If you see green shading and the price opens above the PDC, buyers are in control.
* **Reaction Levels**: The PDH and PDL act as natural support and resistance levels where institutions tend to make decisions.
* **Session Filter**: Ideal for avoiding “traps” during the pre-market, as the indicator only activates when real liquidity begins.
### 🛠 Technical Features
* **Optimized for MSTR and volatile assets**: Filters weekend gaps to maintain data accuracy.
* **Dynamic Tags**: Level names automatically scroll to the right so as not to obstruct the candles.
* **Clean Code**: Written in Pine Script v5 with corrected `lookahead` logic to avoid repainting.

Liquidity Sweep Guardian (Universal % or point based)
Liquidity Sweep Guardian - Complete User Guide
## Overview
The **Liquidity Sweep Guardian** is a visual warning system designed to prevent premature counter-trend trades (fades) near Previous Day High (PDH) and Previous Day Low (PDL) levels. This indicator helps you avoid one of the most common trading mistakes: fading too early before liquidity sweeps complete.
---
## 🎯 Core Trading Principle
### **THE GOLDEN RULE: Don't Fade Until It's Unlocked**
Price often **accelerates into key levels** to sweep liquidity before reversing. Trading against this momentum is extremely dangerous.
**The Process:**
1. **Danger Zone** (Red/White Box) = ⚠️ **DO NOT FADE** - Sweep likely incoming
2. **Sweep Occurs** (Triangle marker appears) = Price penetrates the level
3. **Reclaim Happens** (Price returns above/below level) = Level is tested
4. **🔓 UNLOCKED** (Gold border, green label) = **NOW you may CONSIDER a fade**
> **Important:** "UNLOCKED" means you may now *consider* a fade setup. It is NOT a trade signal itself. You still need your entry confirmation, risk management, and trade plan.
---
## 📊 Visual Elements Explained
### 1. **Danger Zone Boxes (Red Border by Default)**
**Two types of zones around PDH/PDL:**
- **Outer Danger Zone** (White fill): ±75pts (or 0.30%) around the level
- Indicates proximity to a key level where sweeps commonly occur
- Yellow/cautious trading zone
- **Inner Critical Zone** (Black fill): ±25pts (or 0.10%) around the level
- Highest probability area for liquidity sweep traps
- Avoid fading here at all costs
**What to do:**
- When price enters these zones, **wait and watch**
- Do not initiate counter-trend positions
- Allow the sweep to play out
### 2. **Unlocked Zones (Gold Border #ffeb3b)**
When a zone turns **gold/yellow** with green fill:
- The level has been swept AND reclaimed
- The liquidity grab is complete
- You may now look for fade opportunities with proper confirmation
### 3. **PDH/PDL Lines**
- **PDH Line** (Red): Previous Day High with price label
- **PDL Line** (Green): Previous Day Low with price label
- These are your key reference levels for the session
### 4. **Sweep Labels**
**Triangle Markers (SWEEP):**
- **Green Triangle** = Clean sweep (10-25pts penetration)
- **Orange Triangle** = Extended sweep (25-50pts penetration)
- **Red Triangle** = Deep penetration (50+ pts) - likely continuation, not reversal
**Warning Labels:**
- **⚠️ DEEP CONTINUATION?** = Penetration too deep, probably NOT a reversal setup
**Unlock Labels:**
- **🔓 LONG UNLOCKED** = PDL swept and reclaimed, may consider long fades
- **🔓 SHORT UNLOCKED** = PDH swept and reclaimed, may consider short fades
