Lumiere’s Indicator BundleThe Lumiere’s Indicator Bundle combines three of Lumiere’s most used tools into one script:
🔹 BOS Mark-out – Marks Breaks of Structure with clear bullish/bearish levels and optional alerts.
🔹 Liquidity Mark-ou t – Draws significant swing highs/lows and automatically removes them once swept.
🔹 Trading Session High/Low – Tracks Asia, London, and New York session ranges with customizable timezone.
Why this bundle?
I made this bundle so everyone can run all my indicators at once without having to pick and choose between them or worry about chart space limits.
Instead of loading 3 separate indicators, this package gives you everything in one place. You can toggle each module (BOS, Liquidity, Sessions) on or off from the settings. All inputs are kept clean and organized in their own sections for easy adjustments.
What to expect
BOS lines always plotted on top for maximum clarity.
Liquidity highs/lows update in real time and get removed when taken out.
Session ranges show the active session’s high/low and can mark sweeps after the session closes.
Default timezone is New York (UTC-4), but you can switch to any TradingView-supported timezone.
BOS alerts are included, so you’ll never miss a structural break.
Sessions
ICT HTF Candles + CISD + FVG, by AlephxxiiICT HTF Candles + CISD + FVG
A practical, friendly overlay for ICT-style trading
This indicator gives you three things at once—right on your chart:
HTF Candles Panel (context):
Compact candles from higher timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W) appear to the right of price so you always see the higher-timeframe story without switching charts. It includes labels, remaining time for the current HTF candle, and optional open/high/low/close reference lines.
CISD Levels (bias flips):
Automatically plots +CISD and -CISD lines. When price closes above +CISD, the indicator considers bullish delivery. When price closes below -CISD, it considers bearish delivery. An on-chart table (optional) shows the current bias at a glance.
FVG (Fair Value Gaps):
Highlights inefficiency zones (gaps) on your current timeframe and/or a selected higher timeframe. You can choose to mark a gap “filled” when price hits the midpoint (optional).
Quick start (2 minutes)
Add to chart and keep your normal trading timeframe (e.g., 1–5m).
In settings → HTF 1..6, pick the higher timeframes you want to see (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W).
Turn on FVG (current, HTF or both).
Watch +CISD / -CISD lines and the Current State table.
Close above +CISD → Bullish bias
Close below -CISD → Bearish bias
Trade with the bias and use FVGs as areas to refine entries or targets.
How to read it (the simple way)
Bias (CISD):
Bullish once price closes above the active +CISD level.
Bearish once price closes below the active -CISD level.
The small table (if enabled) says Bullish or Bearish right now.
HTF panel:
Shows higher-timeframe candles next to your current chart.
Labels show the timeframe (e.g., 1H) and a countdown for the current candle.
Optional traces draw HTF Open/High/Low/Close levels—great “magnets” for price.
FVGs:
Shaded boxes = potential inefficiency areas.
If Midpoint Fill is on, a touch of the midline counts as filled.
You can display current TF, HTF, or both.
Suggested workflow (popular ICT-style intraday)
Define bias with CISD
Only look for longs if Bullish, shorts if Bearish.
Check HTF context
Are you trading into a large HTF FVG or key HTF O/H/L/C level? That can be a target or a headwind.
Refine entries with FVGs
On your entry TF (1–5m), use fresh FVGs in the direction of the bias. Avoid fading straight into big HTF imbalances.
Key settings you’ll actually use
HTF 1..6: toggle each strip, select timeframe, and how many candles to show.
Style & layout: adjust offset, spacing, and width of the right-side panels.
Labels & timers: show/hide HTF name and remaining time; place labels at Top/Bottom/Both.
Custom daily open (NY): set the 1D candle to start at Midnight, 08:30, or 09:30 (America/New_York).
Trace lines: optional HTF O/H/L/C lines (style, width, anchor TF).
FVG module (extra): choose Current TF / HTF / Both, enable Midpoint Fill, auto-delete on fill, and show timeframe labels.
CISD lines: customize color, style (solid/dotted/dashed), thickness, and forward extension.
Table: enable/disable and choose its position.
Alerts
When a CISD completes, the script fires an alert (e.g., “Bullish CISD Formed” or “Bearish CISD Formed”).
Tip: Set your TradingView alert once on the indicator, then choose the alert message you want to receive.
Notes & limitations (read me)
“VI” label: The “Volume Imbalance” option marks price imbalances (body non-overlap). It does not read volume data.
Timezone: Daily logic and timers use America/New_York, which aligns with US indices/equities and common ICT practice.
Performance: This tool draws many boxes/lines/labels. If your chart feels heavy, reduce the number of HTFs or candles shown, or narrow panel width.
Repainting: HTF panels are designed to avoid future leakage; FVG logic follows standard 3-bar checks. As usual, wait for candle closes for confirmations.
Level cleanup: If Keep old CISD levels is OFF (default), the script keeps only the current active CISD to reduce clutter.
ICT Multi-Session Hi/L/EQ
Indicator Overview: The "ICT Multi-Session Hi/L/EQ" indicator is a versatile tool designed for traders utilizing Inner Circle Trader (ICT) strategies, enabling the visualization of key price levels—High (H), Low (L), Equilibrium (EQ, the midpoint between high and low), and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) levels at 61.8%, 70%, and 79% of the session range—across up to 6 customizable market sessions on a single chart.
Core Functionality: It dynamically tracks and plots session-specific highs, lows, and EQ, updating in real-time as price action evolves, providing traders with immediate insights into potential support, resistance, and balance zones during defined periods like the Asian, London, or New York sessions. This multi-session capability allows for comprehensive market analysis without the need for multiple indicators.
Unique OTE Auto Detection: A standout feature is the automatic detection and directional calculation of OTE levels. When a session forms a new high, OTE levels are recalculated downward from the high to the low (bearish bias), highlighting potential short entry zones. Conversely, a new low triggers upward OTE levels from the low to the high (bullish bias), signaling long opportunities. This auto-detection adapts to market momentum without manual input, making it highly unique for ICT traders seeking efficient entry signals based on range retracements. No other indicator combines this session-based auto-directionality with OTE percentages tailored for ICT methodologies.
Left-Side Trimming Innovation: Another innovative aspect is the left-side trimming option, which allows users to limit the historical extension of lines to a user-defined number of bars (e.g., the last 8 bars), reducing chart clutter and focusing attention on recent price action. This feature is particularly unique as it addresses a common issue in multi-session indicators where full historical lines can overwhelm the chart, making it ideal for scalpers or day traders who prioritize clarity.
Without trimming the left side:
And when left side trimming is enabled:
Multi-Session Customization: Support for up to 6 independent sessions, each with individual time ranges (HHMM-HHMM format), timezones, and enable/disable toggles, offers unparalleled flexibility. Traders can configure sessions for specific market phases (e.g., Asia: 2000-0000 UTC) and customize colors, line styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and label properties separately, ensuring a personalized setup for global trading environments.
Auto-Deletion at Market Close: Levels can be automatically deleted at the session's calculated market close (17:00 NY timestamp), keeping the chart clean for the next session or day, a useful feature for avoiding accumulation of outdated levels.
Label and Visual Controls: Users can toggle labels on/off, adjust text color, background color, transparency, and size (tiny, small, normal, large), with options to stick labels to the right for better visibility. This level of customization ensures the indicator integrates seamlessly with any chart style.
No External Dependencies: All calculations are performed using built-in Pine Script functions on the chart's price data, making it self-contained and reliable without needing external libraries or data sources.
Professional and Compliant Design: Developed to comply with TradingView House Rules, this indicator is original in its combination of multi-session plotting, directional OTE auto-detection, and left-side trimming, providing traders with a robust tool for ICT-based analysis.
How It Works
Session Setup: Define session times and timezones in settings; the script tracks high/low from session start.
Level Calculation: High/low update on every bar; EQ is the midpoint. OTE levels recalculate directionally upon new extremes.
Drawing Mechanism: Lines extend with user-defined padding; trimming cuts left side for cleanliness.
Update Logic: OTE direction shifts based on new high/low detection, with levels refreshed accordingly.
Deletion: Auto-deletes at session end if enabled, resetting for new sessions.
Uniqueness and Innovation
Session OTE Auto Detection: Automatically adjusts OTE direction based on new highs/lows, a feature not commonly available in other indicators, enabling hands-free bias identification.
Left-Side Trimming: Unique clutter-reduction tool that trims historical lines, improving chart readability—a rare capability in session-based indicators.
Multi-Session Support: Handles 6 sessions independently, with per-session OTE, making it a one-stop tool for global market analysis.
Directional OTE: Adapts to market bias, offering dynamic entry zones tailored to ICT strategies.
Full Customization: Extensive controls for visuals and behavior, ensuring adaptability to individual trading styles.
User Guide: How to Use the "ICT Multi-Session Hi/L/EQ" Indicator
This guide provides a comprehensive, step-by-step explanation of how to use the "ICT Multi-Session Hi/L/EQ" indicator on TradingView. The indicator is designed to help Inner Circle Trader (ICT) enthusiasts plot key price levels—High (H), Low (L), Equilibrium (EQ, the midpoint), and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) levels at 61.8%, 70%, and 79% of the session range—across up to 6 customizable sessions. It also includes a Candle Open line for midnight or custom times. I'll break it down by settings groups, explaining each option, its purpose, how to tweak it, and tips for optimal use. All settings are accessible via the indicator's settings panel (cog icon next to the indicator name on your chart).
General Settings
These control global behaviors that apply to all sessions and levels. They allow you to customize the overall appearance and functionality of the indicator on your chart.
Line Padding (Bars Beyond Current): This integer input (default: 2, minimum: 0) extends the plotted lines beyond the current bar by the specified number of bars.
How to Use/Tweak: Increase this value (e.g., to 5) for longer forward projections of levels, useful for anticipating future price action. Decrease to 0 for no extension. It's ideal for traders who like to see levels projected ahead in volatile markets.
Tip: On lower timeframes (e.g., 5M), higher padding (4-6) helps visualize potential targets; on higher timeframes (1H), keep it low to avoid clutter.
Label Padding (Bars from Line End): An integer (default: 3, minimum: 0) that positions labels away from the end of the lines by the specified bars.
How to Use/Tweak: Adjust to move labels further right (higher value) or closer to the line end (lower value). This prevents label overlap with price action or other indicators.
Tip: If your chart has many labels, set to 5+ for better readability; use 1-2 for minimalistic setups.
Enable Left-Side Trimming: A boolean toggle (default: true) to trim lines from the left, limiting their historical extension.

samc's FX SESSIONS - on candles So, based on my 8 yrs of experience and over a 2 decade worth of back testing on FX majors pairs one thing i can univocally affirm to the fact that Timing is everything especially in the currency markets.
so i made this indicator to help reduce the noise and focus on signals which is coded by time,
now i made this as GMT+8 in focus but you can adjust based on your requirements.
I classified my indicator colors according to the inter-SESSION High Impact areas only as following :
Primary session colors:
ASIAN - YELLOW
EU - BLUE
US - Magenta (light)
and every first 10 mins of the hour (Great for scalping)
i marked them in a shade of grey.
secondary sessions i marked them as minor sessions.
PRE-EU 1hr of expected trend i marked in color green
and
after hours in a shade of color violet.
so i usually make my candles into light grey by default and remove the body and wicks to minimize the visual stimulus so that this indicator will work great with both dark and light themes and does not obstruct other indicators.
also i made an option to uncheck my naming scheme of session on the top right.

Buy signals: Large bearish rejection followed by bullish reclaim
Sell signals: Large bullish rejection followed by bearish breakdown
Signals only trigger near significant support/resistance areas
Signal Analysis & Usage Guidelines
Buy Signal Mechanics
The buy signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bearish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle reclaims a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key support level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
Sell Signal Mechanics
The sell signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bullish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle rejects below a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key resistance level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
When to TAKE Signals
High Probability Buy Signals:
Signal appears AT or BELOW the VAL (Value Area Low)
Signal occurs at bullish order block confluence
Price is in LVN area below VAL (momentum acceleration zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% support
Multiple session POC levels provide support confluence
Previous session's VAL acting as current support
High Probability Sell Signals:
Signal appears AT or ABOVE the VAH (Value Area High)
Signal occurs at bearish order block confluence
Price is in HVN area above VAH (heavy resistance zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% resistance
Multiple session POC levels provide resistance confluence
Previous session's VAH acting as current resistance
When to AVOID Signals
Avoid Buy Signals When:
Signal appears ABOVE the VAH (buying into resistance)
Price is in HVN red zones (high volume resistance areas)
No clear support structure below current price
Volume profile shows heavy selling pressure (high bear percentages)
Signal occurs during low-volume periods between major sessions
Multiple bearish order blocks exist below current price
Avoid Sell Signals When:
Signal appears BELOW the VAL (selling into support)
Price is in LVN green zones (momentum could continue)
No clear resistance structure above current price
Volume profile shows heavy buying pressure (high bull percentages)
Signal occurs during Asian session ranges without clear direction
Multiple bullish order blocks exist above current price
Volume Profile Context for Signals
Understanding Bull/Bear Percentages:
70%+ Bull dominance at a level = Strong support expected
70%+ Bear dominance at a level = Strong resistance expected
50/50 Split = Neutral zone, less predictable
Use percentages to gauge conviction behind moves
POC (Point of Control) Interactions:
Signals above POC in uptrend = Higher probability
Signals below POC in downtrend = Higher probability
Signals against POC bias require extra confirmation
POC often acts as magnetic level for price return
Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: VAL/VAH Bounce Strategy
Wait for price to approach VAL (support) or VAH (resistance)
Look for signal confirmation at these critical levels
Enter with tight stops beyond the Value Area
Target opposite boundary or next session's levels
Strategy 2: Order Block + Volume Confluence
Identify order block alignment with VAL/VAH
Wait for signal within the confluence zone
Enter on signal with stop beyond order block
Use LVN areas as acceleration zones for targets
Strategy 3: LVN/HVN Strategy
LVN (Green) Areas: "Go Zones" - expect quick price movement through low volume
HVN (Red) Areas: "Stop Zones" - expect resistance and potential reversals
NPOC Areas: "Fill Zones" - price often returns to fill single print gaps
Strategy 4: Multi-Session Analysis
Use Daily/Weekly for major structure context
Use 4H for intermediate levels
Use 1H for precise entry timing
Ensure all timeframes align before taking signals
Strategy 5: Fibonacci + Volume Profile
Buy signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAL
Sell signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAH
Use 88.6% level as final support/resistance before major moves
50% level often aligns with POC for confluence
Signal Quality Assessment
Grade A Signals (Highest Probability):
Signal at VAL/VAH with order block confluence
Fibonacci level alignment (61.8%, 78.6%)
Volume profile shows 70%+ dominance in signal direction
Multiple timeframe structure alignment
Signal occurs during high-volume sessions (London/NY)
Grade B Signals (Moderate Probability):
Signal near POC with some confluence
Fibonacci 50% or 38.2% alignment
Mixed volume profile readings (50-70% dominance)
Some timeframe alignment present
Signal during overlap sessions
Grade C Signals (Lower Probability):
Signal with minimal confluence
Weak fibonacci alignment or none
Volume profile neutral or against signal
Conflicting timeframe signals
Signal during low-volume periods
Risk Management Guidelines
Position Sizing Based on Signal Quality:

Important Disclaimers
This indicator is a technical analysis tool designed for educational purposes. It does not provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or trading signals that guarantee profits. All trading involves substantial risk of loss, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Users should conduct their own research, understand the risks involved, and consider consulting with qualified financial advisors before making trading decisions. The signals and analysis provided are based on historical price patterns and volume data, which may not predict future market movements accurately.
Best Practices
Never trade signals blindly - always consider volume profile context
Wait for confluence between multiple tools before entering
Respect the Value Area - avoid buying above VAH or selling below VAL
Use session context - Asian ranges vs London/NY breakouts
Practice proper risk management - position size based on signal quality
Understand the bigger picture - use multiple timeframes for context
Remember: Like the IDKFA cheat code, having all the tools doesn't guarantee success. The key is learning to use them together effectively and understanding when NOT to take a signal is often more important than knowing when to take one.
True Close – Institutional Trading Sessions (Zeiierman)█ Overview
True Close – Institutional Trading Sessions (Zeiierman) is a professional-grade session mapping tool designed to help traders align with how institutions perceive the market’s true close. Unlike the textbook “daily close” used by retail traders, institutional desks often anchor their risk management, execution benchmarks, and exposure metrics to the first hour of the next session.
This indicator visualizes that logic directly on your chart — drawing session boxes, true close levels, and time-aligned labels across Sydney, Tokyo, London, and New York. It highlights the first hour of each session, projects the institutional closing price, and builds a live dashboard that tells you which sessions are active, which are in the critical opening phase, and what levels matter most right now.
More than just a visual tool, this indicator embeds institutional rhythm directly into your workflow — giving you a window into where big players finalize yesterday’s business, rebalance exposure, and execute delayed orders. It’s not just about painting sessions on your chart — it’s about adopting the mindset of those who truly move the market. Institutions don’t settle risk at the bell; they complete it in the next session. This tool lets you see that transition in real time, giving you an edge that goes beyond candles and indicators.
█ How It Works
⚪ Session Detection Engine
Each session is identified by its own time block (e.g., 09:00–17:30 for London). Once a session opens:
A full-session box is drawn to track its range.
The first hour is highlighted separately.
Once the first hour completes, the true close line is plotted, representing the price institutions often treat as the "real" close of the prior day.
⚪ Institutional True Close Logic
The script captures the close of the first hour, not the end of the day.
This line becomes a static reference across your chart, letting you visualize how price interacts with that institutional anchor:
Rejections from it show where yesterday's flow is respected.
Breaks through it may indicate that today's flows are rewriting the narrative.
⚪ Dynamic Dashboard Table
A live table appears in the corner of your screen, showing:
Each session's active status
Whether we’re inside the first hour
The current “true close” price if available
Each cell comes with advanced tooltips giving institutional context, flow dynamics, and market microstructure insights — from rebalancing spillovers to VWAP/TWAP lag effects.
█ How to Use
⚪ Use the First-Hour Line as Your Institutional Anchor
Treat it like the price level that big funds care about. Watch how the price behaves around level. Fades, re-tests, or continuation moves often occur as the market finishes recapping yesterday’s leftover orders.
⚪ Structure Entries Around the Session Context
Are you inside the first hour? Expect more volatility, more decisive flow. After the first session hour, expect fading liquidity as the market slows down and awaits the next session to open.
█ Settings
UTC Offset – Select your preferred time zone; all sessions adjust accordingly.
Session Toggles – Enable/disable Sydney, Tokyo, London, or NY.
Box Display Options – Show/hide session background, first-hour fill, borders.
True Close Line Controls – Enable line, label, and customize width & color.
Execution Hour Labels – Optional toggle for first-hour label placement.

[killerbee] MTF RetracementKey Features
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis: Plot the high, low, and open from up to four user-defined higher timeframes. This allows you to see the bigger picture and identify key levels that institutional traders are watching.
Dynamic Support & Resistance: Lines are drawn at these key MTF levels and extend until price breaks through them, providing a clean and dynamic view of support and resistance.
Session Highlighting: Automatically draw boxes and high/low lines for the Asia, London, and RTH (Regular Trading Hours) sessions. This helps you understand the context of price action throughout the trading day.
Customizable Opening Price Lines: Pinpoint significant opening prices with dedicated lines for events like the "Midnight Open," "8:30 Open," and "9:30 Open."
"NQ STATS TABLE": A powerful statistical table that provides real-time insights:
Break/Hit Confirmation: Instantly see when a key MTF high/low has been broken or when an opening price has been retraced to.
9 AM Directional Bias: A bullish or bearish bias based on the close of the 9 AM (New York time) hourly candle.
Historical Probabilities: The table displays historical probabilities for price to either break a previous high/low or retrace to the open, based on the current hour of the trading session.
Extensive Customization: Nearly every visual aspect of the indicator can be customized to your preference, including colors, line styles, visibility of each component, and the position of the stats table.
How to Use
Identify Key Levels: The lines from the higher timeframes (HTF1, HTF2, etc.) represent significant support and resistance. Pay close attention to these levels as price approaches them.
Look for Breaks and Retracements:
When a high or low line is broken, the line will stop extending. This can signal a shift in market structure and a potential continuation in the direction of the break.
The "Open Line" for each timeframe represents the opening price. When the line stops extending, it means price has retraced back to that open, a common occurrence in the market.
Utilize the Sessions:
The Asia, London, and RTH boxes help you frame your trading day. The highs and lows of these sessions are often critical levels of support and resistance.
Breakouts from these session ranges can lead to strong directional moves.
Leverage the STATS TABLE:
Use the "Break" and "Hit" columns to quickly confirm when key levels have been breached or revisited.
The "Direction" row gives you a quick sentiment reading based on the 9 AM candle.
The "Trades Back %" and "High/Low Forms" provide a statistical edge by showing you the historical likelihood of certain price behaviors based on the time of day. This can help you decide whether to play for a breakout or a retracement.

❗️LIMITATIONS
1. Data Dependency
Volume Requirements : Volume-based analysis only functions when volume data is provided by your broker. Many forex brokers do not supply reliable volume data.
Price Action Focus : In absence of volume data, sentiment calculations rely primarily on price movement and volatility factors.
2. Session Time Sensitivity
Manual Adjustment Required : Session times must be manually updated for daylight saving time changes.
Broker Variations : Different brokers may have slightly different session definitions requiring time parameter adjustments.
3. Ranging Market Limitations
Trend Bias : Sentiment calculations may be less reliable during extended sideways or low-volatility market conditions.
Lag Consideration : As with all sentiment indicators, readings may lag during rapid market transitions.
4. Regional Market Focus
Major Session Coverage : Designed primarily for major global sessions; may not capture sentiment from smaller regional markets.
Weekend Gaps : Does not account for weekend gap effects on sentiment calculations.
