Liquidity Zones [BigBeluga]This indicator is designed to detect liquidity zones on the chart by identifying significant pivot highs and lows filtered by volume strength. It plots these zones as boxes, highlighting areas where liquidity is likely to accumulate. The indicator also draws lines extending from these boxes, marking the levels where price may "grab" this liquidity. The size of these boxes can be dynamic, adjusting based on the volume size, offering a visual representation of market areas where traders might expect significant price reactions.
🔵 IDEA
The idea behind the Liquidity Zones indicator is to help traders identify key market levels where liquidity accumulates. Liquidity zones are areas where there are enough buy or sell orders that can potentially lead to significant price movements. By focusing on pivot points filtered by volume strength, the indicator aims to provide a clearer picture of where large players may have positioned their orders. This insight allows traders to anticipate potential market reactions, such as reversals or breakouts, when the price reaches these zones. The option for dynamic box height further refines the visualization, showing the extent of liquidity based on the volume's intensity.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
◉ Volume-Filtered Pivot Highs and Lows:
The indicator scans for pivot highs and lows on the chart, filtering these points based on the volume strength setting (Low, Mid, High). This ensures that only the most significant liquidity zones, backed by notable trading volume, are highlighted. Traders can adjust the filter to focus on different levels of market activity, from small fluctuations to major volume spikes.
Low:
Mid:
High:
◉ Dynamic and Static Liquidity Zones:
Liquidity zones are plotted as boxes around pivot points, with an optional dynamic mode that adjusts the box height based on the normalized volume. This dynamic adjustment reflects the liquidity carried by the volume, making it easier to gauge the significance of each zone. In static mode, the boxes have a fixed height, providing a consistent visual reference for the zones.
◉ Color Intensity Based on Volume:
The indicator adjusts the color intensity of the liquidity zones based on the volume strength. Higher volume zones will be displayed with more intense colors, giving a visual cue to the strength of the liquidity present in that area. This makes it easier to differentiate between zones of varying importance at a glance, allowing traders to quickly identify where the market has the highest concentration of liquidity.
◉ Liquidity Grab Detection and Red Circles:
When the price interacts with a liquidity zone, the indicator detects whether liquidity has been "grabbed" at these levels. If the price moves into a zone and crosses a level, the box label changes to "Liquidity Grabbed," and the line marking the level becomes dashed.
Reversal Points:
The beginning of a trend:
Additionally marks these "liquidity grabs" with red circles, indicating both recent and past liquidity grabs. This feature helps traders identify areas where liquidity has been absorbed by the market, which may signal potential reversals or shifts in market direction.
◉ Dashboard Display:
A dashboard in the upper right corner of the chart provides an overview of the indicator's settings and status. It shows the number of plotted zones, as set in the input settings, and whether the dynamic mode is active. This quick reference helps traders stay informed about the indicator's configuration without needing to open the settings panel.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Length & Zones Amount: Set the length for pivot detection and the maximum number of zones to be displayed on the chart. This allows you to control how many liquidity zones you want to monitor at any given time.
Volume Strength Filter: Adjust the filter to Low, Mid, or High to control the strength of volume required for a pivot to be considered a significant liquidity zone. Higher settings focus on zones with greater volume, indicating stronger liquidity.
Dynamic Distance Mode: Enable or disable the dynamic mode, which adjusts the box height based on the volume size. When dynamic mode is off, the boxes have a fixed height based on the ATR, offering a consistent visualization regardless of the volume size.
The Liquidity Zones indicator is a versatile tool for identifying areas of significant market activity, offering a clear view of where liquidity is likely to reside. By filtering these zones through volume strength and providing dynamic or static visualization options, it equips traders with insights into potential market reaction points, enhancing their ability to anticipate and respond to market movements. The varying color intensity based on volume further aids in quickly recognizing the most critical liquidity zones on the chart.
Liquidity PeaksThe "Liquidity Peaks" indicator is a tool designed to identify significant supply and demand zones based on volumetric analysis. It analyzes the volume profile within a specified lookback range to pinpoint the most volumetric point and draw corresponding zones on the price chart.
The 𝐋𝐢𝐪. 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐬 indicator utilizes volume data to identify key supply and demand areas on the price chart. By examining the volume profile within a defined lookback range, it highlights three distinct zones: liquidity grab, volume containment, and the most volumetric point.
Zones and their meanings:
Liquidity grab (Orange box): This zone represents a price level where there is a significant swipe of the previous demand zone within the volume range. It indicates a potential shift in market sentiment and serves as a key supply or demand area.
Volume containment (Gray box): This zone displays the area of volume contained before the peak in volume. It provides insights into the range where buying or selling pressure was concentrated, highlighting potential support or resistance levels.
Most volumetric point (Light blue box): This zone represents the point within the lookback range that exhibits the highest volume. It signifies a significant area of market interest and indicates a potential supply or demand level.
Adjustable options:
Adjust liquidity Grab: This option allows you to adjust the size of the boxes. When enabled, the box size is set to twice the size of the high or low of the candle's wick. This adjustment enhances the visibility and accuracy of identifying swipes at specific price levels.
Show origin: Enabling this option ensures that the liquidity boxes are drawn from the wick they were created from. This provides a clear visual reference to the specific candle and highlights the liquidity levels associated with it.
Utility:
The 𝐋𝐢𝐪. 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐬 indicator is a valuable tool for traders and investors seeking to identify significant supply and demand zones in the market. By analyzing volume data and drawing corresponding zones on the chart, it helps to pinpoint areas where buying or selling pressure is likely to emerge.
Traders can utilize this information to identify potential support and resistance levels, plan their entries and exits, and make more informed trading decisions. The liquidity grab zones can act as potential reversal or breakout points, while the volume containment zones and most volumetric points provide insights into areas of high market interest.
It is important to note that this indicator should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators to confirm trading signals and validate market dynamics.
Example Charts:
Liquidity Heatmap (Nephew_Sam_)Liquidity Heatmap
This indicator plots a heatmap of resting liquidity above and below swing lows and multiple timeframes
The darker the color is or the larger the zone is, the more liquidity is lying there. If you think there are too many zones, you can increase the timeframes in the settings or just disable it.
Liquidity simply means orders such as stoplosses, buy/sell stops.

Liquidity Swings & SweepsThis Pine script indicator is designed to create a visual representation liquidity as identified by swing Highs/Lows along with an indication of the liquidity level that was swept, optionally rating the strength of the sweep based on time & price.
Relevance:
Liquidity levels & sweeps are crucial for many SMC/ICT setups and can indicate a point at which the price changes direction or may re-trace in an opposite direction to provide additional liquidity for continued move in the original direction. Additionally, liquidity levels may provide targets for setups, as price action will often seek to take out those levels as they main contain many buy/sell stops.
How It Works:
The indicator tracks all swing points, as identified using user-defined strength of the swing. Once a swing is formed that meets the criteria, it is represented by a horizontal line starting at the price of the current swing until the last bar on the chart. While the swing is valid, this line will continue to be extended until the swing is invalid or a new swing is formed. Upon identifying a new swing, the indicator then scans the earlier swings in the same direction looking for a point of greatest liquidity that was taken by the current swing. This level is then denoted by dashed horizontal line, connecting earlier swing point to the current. At the same time any liquidity zones between the two swings are automatically removed from the chart if they had previously been rendered on the chart. If the setting to enable scan for maximum liquidity is enabled, then while looking back, the indicator will look for lowest low or highest high that was taken by the current swing point, which may not be a swing itself, however, is a lowest/highest price point taken (mitigated) by the current swing, which in many cases will be better price then then the one represented by previous swing. If the option to render sweep label is enabled, the sweep line will also be completed by a label, that will score the sweep and a tooltip showing the details of the level swept and the time it took to sweep it. The score explained further in configurability section ranks the strength of the sweep based on time and is complemented by price (difference in price between the two liquidity levels).
Configurability:
A user may configure the strength of the swing using both left/right strength (number of bars) as well as optionally instruct the indicator to seek the lowest/highest price point which may not be previous swing that was taken out by newly formed swing.
From appearance perspective liquidity level colors & line width presenting the liquidity/swing can be configured. There is also an option to render the liquidity sweep label that will generate an icon-based rating of the liquidity sweep and a tooltip that provides details on the scope of the swing, which includes liquidity level swept and when it was formed along with the time it took to sweep the liquidity.
Rating is of sweeps is primarily based on time with a secondary reference to price
💥- Best rating, very strong sweep with an hourly or better liquidity sweep
🔥- Second rating, strong sweep with 15 – 59 minute liquidity sweep, or 5+ minute sweep of 10+ points
✅- Third rating, ok sweep with 5 - 15 minute liquidity sweep, or lower-time-frame sweep of 10+ points
❄️ - Weakest sweep, with liquidity of 5 or less minutes swept
What makes this indicator different:
Designed with high performance in mind, to reduce impact on chart render time.
Only keeps valid liquidity levels & sweeps on the chart
Automatically removes previously taken liquidity levels
Ranks liquidity sweeps to indicate strength of the sweep

Features of the new Liquidity Grab Screener :
Find Latest Liquidity Grabs Accross 5 Tickers
Price, Size, Status Information
Customizable Algoritm / Styling
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a bubble is plotted.
The bubble size is determined by the wick to body ratio of the candle.
This screener then finds liquidity grabs accross 5 different tickers, and shows the latest information about them.
Price -> The price when the liquidity grab happened.
Size -> Size of the liquidity grab, determined by the wick-body ratio.
Status -> Shows the elapsed time of the liquidity grab.
🚩UNIQUENESS
Liquidity grabs can be useful when determining candles that have executed a lot of market orders, and planning your trades accordingly. This screener will find liquidity grabs from up to 5 tickers and give information about their price, size and status. The screener also lets you customize the pivot length and the wick-body ratio for liquidity grabs.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. Tickers
You can set up to 5 tickers for the screener to scan order blocks here. You can also enable / disable them and set their individual timeframes.
2. General Configuration
Pivot Length -> This setting determines the range of the pivots. This means a candle has to have the highest / lowest wick of the previous X bars and the next X bars to become a high / low pivot.
Wick-Body Ratio -> After a pivot has a false breakout, the wick-body ratio of the latest candle is tested. The resulting ratio must be higher than this setting for it to be considered as a liquidity grab.

Liquidity Sweeps [LuxAlgo]The Liquidity Sweeps indicator detects the presence of liquidity sweeps on the user's chart, while also providing potential areas of support/resistance or entry when Liquidity levels are taken.
In the event of a Liquidity Sweep a Sweep Area is created which may provide further areas of interest.
🔶 USAGE
A Liquidity Sweep occurs when the price breaks through a liquidity level (further referred to as LqL ), after which the price returns below/above the liquidity level , forming a wick.
The script provides 2 options when this can happen:
A wick passes a LqL after which the price quickly returns.
First the closing price breaks through a LqL . After a while, the price retests the LqL and forms a wick in the opposite direction.
The examples above show a bullish and bearish scenario of "a wick passing through an LqL where the price quickly comes back". This type of Liquidity Sweep is represented by a dotted line.
The following example shows a broken LqL , where the price retests the Liquidity zone and bounces back.
Instead of a dotted line, this type of Liquidity Sweep is represented by a dashed line.
When a Liquidity Sweep takes place, this is indicated by highlighting the "wick- LqL " distance. This distance is also the basis for the Sweep Area (see next sub-section). A small 3-bar long dotted line starts from the opposite wick as an extra aid to determine potential support/resistance/entry, ...
Colors can be set in the settings (here yellow and aqua blue instead of default colors for clarity).
🔹 Sweep Areas
The distance between the LqL and the maximum limit of the wick forms a Sweep Area , which can provide a potential support/resistance or entry zone.
These examples show both types of Liquidity Sweeps , followed by a box indicating the Sweep Area .
When the Sweep Area is mitigated or a certain amount of bars has passed (Settings - 'Max bars'), the boxes will no longer be updated.
In this case, the 'Trigger' label shows the bar where the high crossed a LqL , after which a red box starts between LqL and high.
The low of the 'Trigger' bar is the starting point of a short dotted line. Next to the 'Trigger bar' the high touches the Sweep Area before returning, providing a potential short entry. One bar further, another entry opportunity presents itself when the price breaks the small dotted line.
In the following bullish example, not only do we see opportunities when the LqL has been swept, but the following Sweep Area provides some potential entries.
The small green dotted lines also act as a guide where the price breaks above, then forms a small range, after which the price continues in an upward direction.
Here, the initial trigger on the left forms a Sweep Area that is quickly broken. However, the small green line provides a potential entry area later on. The price moves in a short channel before breaking above the LqL (green dashed line), providing more potential entries. Price retests this LqL , and goes below this level. The price remained around the previously formed channel, after which the price resumed its upward trend.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Liquidity Sweeps
Swings: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer term Liquidity Levels .
Options:
- Only Wicks: Only detects a Liquidity Sweep when a wick sweeps a previous wick
- Only Outbreaks & Retest: Only detects a Liquidity Sweep when the price breaks a Liquidity Level , returns & retests the Liquidity Level , and forms a wick in the opposite direction.
- Wicks + Outbreaks & Retest: Both options can be detected.
🔹 Sweep Area

Liquidity Depth [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script visualizes market liquidity by identifying key price levels where significant volume has transacted. It highlights zones of high buying and selling interest, helping traders understand where liquidity is accumulating and how price may respond to these areas. By dynamically tracking volume at highs and lows, the script builds a real-time liquidity profile, making it a powerful tool for identifying potential support and resistance levels.
CONCEPTS
Liquidity depth analysis helps traders determine how price interacts with supply and demand at different levels. The script processes historical volume data to distinguish between high-liquidity and low-liquidity zones. It assigns transparency levels to plotted lines , ensuring that more relevant liquidity areas stand out visually. The script adds a profile to show the depth of liquidity (derived from historical volume data) for levels above and below the current price
FEATURES
Liquidity Levels: Tracks liquidity levels based on volume concentration at price high and lows.
Volume-Based Transparency: More significant liquidity levels are displayed with higher visibility, showing their significance.
Interpolation: interpolates the bullish and bearish liquidity depth at a user defined range away from the price, helping in comparing the liquidity amounts between bullish and bearish.
Depth Profile: Allows traders to visualize depth of liquidity in a more quantitative and clearer way than the liquidity levels/list]
USAGE
This indicator is best used to track liquidity levels and potential price reaction areas. Traders can adjust the Liquidity Lookback setting to analyze past liquidity levels over different historical periods. The Profile Resolution setting controls the granularity of liquidity depth visualization, with higher values providing more detail. The script can be applied across different timeframes, from intraday scalping to swing trading analysis. The plotted liquidity zones provide traders with insights into where price may encounter strong support, resistance, or potential liquidity-driven reversals.
Liquidity PoolsThis indicator displays liquidity based on swing highs and swing lows.
Since large liquidity rests above swing highs and below swing lows, the indicator can show swing highs and lows as well so that you can easily find where liquidity stays.
To determine swing high/low, left bars and right bars can be specified on inputs.
How to use this indicator?
You can use this indicator to;
observe how liquidity is used as the market moves.
watch which liquidity will be taken before the market moves and which liquidity will be targeted as the market progresses.

Liquidity Weighted Moving Averages [AlgoAlpha]Description:
The Liquidity Weighted Moving Averages by AlgoAlpha is a unique approach to identifying underlying trends in the market by looking at candle bars with the highest level of liquidity. This script offers a modified version of the classical MA crossover indicator that aims to be less noisy by using liquidity to determine the true fair value of price and where it should place more emphasis on when calculating the average.
Rationale:
It is common knowledge that liquidity makes it harder for market participants to move the price of assets, using this logic, we can determine the coincident liquidity of each bar by looking at the volume divided by the distance between the opening and closing price of that bar. If there is a higher volume but the opening and closing prices are near each other, this means that there was a high level of liquidity in that bar. We then use standard deviations to filter out high spikes of liquidity and record the closing prices on those bars. An average is then applied to these recorded prices only instead of taking the average of every single bar to avoid including outliers in the data processing.
Key features:
Customizable:
Fast Length - the period of the fast-moving average
Slow Length - the period of the slow-moving average
Outlier Threshold Length - the period of the outlier processing algorithm to detect spikes in liquidity
Significant Noise reduction from outliers:
Liquidity Swings [LuxAlgo]The liquidity swings indicator highlights swing areas with existent trading activity. The number of times price revisited a swing area is highlighted by a zone delimiting the swing areas. Additionally, the accumulated volume within swing areas is highlighted by labels on the chart. An option to filter out swing areas with volume/counts not reaching a user-set threshold is also included.
This indicator by its very nature is not real-time and is meant for descriptive analysis alongside other components of the script. This is normal behavior for scripts detecting pivots as a part of a system and it is important you are aware the pivot labels are not designed to be traded in real-time themselves.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator can be used to highlight significant swing areas, these can be accumulation/distribution zones on lower timeframes and might play a role as future support or resistance.
Swing levels are also highlighted, when a swing level is broken it is displayed as a dashed line. A broken swing high is a bullish indication, while a broken swing low is a bearish indication.
Filtering swing areas by volume allows to only show significant swing areas with an higher degree of liquidity. These swing areas can be wider, highlighting higher volatility, or might have been visited by the price more frequently.
🔶 SETTINGS
Pivot Lookback : Lookback period used for the calculation of pivot points.
Swing Area : Determine how the swing area is calculated, "Wick Extremity" will use the range from price high to the maximum between price close/open in case of a swing high, and the range from price low to the minimum between price close/open in case of a swing low. "Full Range" will use the full candle range as swing area.
Intrabar Precision : Use intrabar data to calculate the accumulated volume within a swing area, this allows obtaining more precise results.
Filter Areas By : Determine how swing areas are filtered out, "Count" will filter out swing areas where price visited the area a number of time inferior to the user set threshold. "Volume" will filter out swing areas where the accumulated volume within the area is inferior to the user set threshold.
🔹 Style
Swing High : Show swing highs.
Swing Low : Show swing lows.
Label Size : Size of the labels on the chart.
Note that swing points are confirmed after Pivot Lookback bars, as such all elements are displayed retrospectively.

🚩UNIQUENESS
Liquidity grabs can be useful when determining candles that have executed a lot of market orders, so you can plann your trades accordingly. This indicator lets you customize the pivot length and the wick-body ratio for liquidity grabs, provide retest & breakout labels, with customized styling and alerts.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Liquidity grabs occur when one of the latest pivots has a false breakout. Then, if the wick to body ratio of the bar is higher than 0.5 (can be changed from the settings) a zone is plotted.
These zones usually indicate areas of high market interest where price action may reverse or accelerate. Identifying these zones can provide traders with critical levels for entering or exiting trades. A breakout of these zones generally mean strong movements are inbound, while failing breakouts make these zones act like support / resistance zones.
The indicator also reverses the type of the zone after an invalidation (can be turned off from the settings). This feature helps traders identify potential reversals more accurately.
The zone width is set to the area from the wick to the body of the candlestick, which can be seen here :
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Pivot Length -> This setting determines the range of the pivots. This means a candle has to have the highest / lowest wick of the previous X bars and the next X bars to become a high / low pivot.
Wick-Body Ratio -> After a pivot has a false breakout, the wick-body ratio of the latest candle is tested. The resulting ratio must be higher than this setting for it to be considered as a liquidity grab.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Liquidity Grab Zone Invalidation.
Use these customizable settings to fine-tune the indicator according to your trading strategy and preferences.
Liquidity Finder🔵 Introduction
The concept of "liquidity pool" or simply "liquidity" in technical analysis price action refers to areas on the price chart where stop losses accumulate, and the market, by reaching those areas and collecting liquidity (Stop Hunt), provides the necessary energy to move the price. This concept is prominent in the "ICT" and "Smart Money" styles. Imagine, as depicted below, the price is at a support level. The general trader mentality is that there is "demand" for the asset at this price level, and this demand will outweigh "supply" as before. So, it is likely that the price will increase. As a result, they start buying and place their stop loss below the support area.
Stop Hunt areas are essentially traders' "stop loss" levels. These are the liquidity that institutional and large traders need to fill their orders. Consequently, they penetrate the price below support areas or above resistance areas to touch their stop loss and fill their orders, and then the price trend reverses.
Cash zones are generally located under "Swings Low" and above "Swings High." More specifically, they can be categorized as support levels or resistance levels, above Double Top and Triple Top patterns, below Double Bottom and Triple Bottom patterns, above Bearish Trend lines, and below Bullish Trend lines.

🔵 How to Use
To optimally use this indicator, you can adjust the settings according to the symbol, time frame, and your needs. These settings include the "sensitivity" of the "liquidity finder" function and the swing periods related to static and dynamic liquidity lines.
"Statics Liquidity Line Sensitivity" is a number between 0 and 0.4. Increasing this number decreases the sensitivity of the "Statics Liquidity Line Detection" function and increases the number of lines identified. The default value is 0.3.
"Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity" is a number between 0.4 and 1.95. Increasing this number increases the sensitivity of the "Dynamics Liquidity Line Detection" function and decreases the number of lines identified. The default value is 1.
"Statics Period Pivot" is set to 8 by default. By changing this number, you can specify the period for the static liquidity line pivots.
"Dynamics Period Pivot" is set to 3 by default. By changing this number, you can specify the period for the dynamic liquidity line pivots.
🔵 Settings
Access to adjust the inputs of Static Dynamic Liquidity Line Sensitivity, Dynamics Liquidity Line Sensitivity, Statics Period Pivot, and Dynamics Period Pivot is possible from this section.
Additionally, you can enable or disable liquidity lines as needed using the buttons for "Show Statics High Liquidity Line," "Show Statics Low Liquidity Line," "Show Dynamics High Liquidity Line," and "Show Dynamics Low Liquidity Line."
Liquidity Heatmap [BigBeluga]The Liquidity Heatmap is an indicator designed to spot possible resting liquidity or potential stop loss using volume or Open interest.
The Open interest is the total number of outstanding derivative contracts for an asset—such as options or futures—that have not been settled. Open interest keeps track of every open position in a particular contract rather than tracking the total volume traded.
The Volume is the total quantity of shares or contracts traded for the current timeframe.
🔶 HOW IT WORKS
Based on the user choice between Volume or OI, the idea is the same for both.
On each candle, we add the data (volume or OI) below or above (long or short) that should be the hypothetical liquidation levels; More color of the liquidity level = more reaction when the price goes through it.
Gradient color is calculated between an average of 2 points that the user can select. For example: 500, and the script will take the average of the highest data between 500 and 250 (half of the user's choice), and the gradient will be based on that.
If we take volume as an example, a big volume spike will mean a lot of long or short activity in that candle. A liquidity level will be displayed below/above the set leverage (4.5 = 20x leverage as an example) so when the price revisits that zone, all the 20x leverage should be liquidated.
Huge volume = a lot of activity
Huge OI = a lot of positions opened
More volume / OI will result in a stronger color that will generate a stronger reaction.
🔶 ROUTE
Here's an example of a route for long liquidity:
Enable the filter = consider only green candles.
Set the leverage to 4.5 (20x).
Choose Data = Volume.
Process:
A green candle is formed.
A liquidity level is established.
The level is placed below to simulate the 20x leverage.
Color is applied, considering the average volume within the chosen area.
Route completed.
🔶 FEATURE
Possibility to change the color of both long and short liquidity
Manual opacity value
Manual opacity average
Leverage
Autopilot - set a good average automatically of the opacity value
Enable both long or short liquidity visualization
Filtering - grab only red/green candle of the corresponding side or grab every candle
Data - nzVolume - Volume - nzOI - OI
🔶 TIPS
Since the limit of the line is 500, it's best to plot 2 scripts: one with only long and another with only short.
🔶 CONCLUSION
The liquidity levels are an interesting way to think about possible levels, and those are not real levels.
[GrandAlgo] Liquidity Pivot Cloud - LPCLiquidity Pivot Cloud (LPC) is a visualization tool that extends all pivot levels to the right, creating a structured liquidity map across the chart. Instead of treating pivot points as static levels, LPC transforms them into a dynamic cloud, highlighting key areas where price has historically reacted.
Key Features:
Extended Pivot Levels – Automatically stretches all pivot highs and lows, forming a continuous liquidity zone.
Clear Structure – Provides an organized view of price action, making it easy to identify reaction zones.
Dynamic Liquidity Map – Helps traders spot potential liquidity sweeps and areas of price absorption.
How to Use:
Identify Liquidity Zones – Areas with multiple overlapping pivots signal strong liquidity pools.
Look for Reactions – Price often consolidates, wicks, or reverses around extended pivot clouds.
Combine with Confluence – Use alongside Fair Value Gaps, Institutional Price Blocks, or Market Structure shifts for higher probability setups.
LPC aligns with smart money concepts by revealing key liquidity areas where stop hunts, liquidity grabs, and institutional activity are likely to occur. It helps traders see where price is likely to be drawn before a major move, making it a valuable tool for those trading liquidity-based strategies.
Liquidity Levels/Voids (VP) [LuxAlgo]The Liquidity Levels/Voids (VP) is a script designed to detect liquidity voids & levels by measuring traded volume at all price levels on the market between two swing points and highlighting the distribution of the liquidity voids & levels at specific price levels.
🔶 USAGE
Liquidity is a fundamental market force that shapes the trajectory of assets.
The creation of a liquidity level comes as a result of an initial imbalance of supply/demand, which forms what we know as a swing high or swing low. As more players take positions in the market, these are levels that market participants will use as a historical reference to place their stops. When the levels are then re-tested, a decision will be made. The binary outcome here can be a breakout of the level or a reversal back to the mean.
Liquidity voids are sudden price changes that occur in the market when the price jumps from one level to another with little trading activity (low volume), creating an imbalance in price. The price tends to fill or retest the liquidity voids area, and traders understand at which price level institutional players have been active.
Liquidity voids are a valuable concept in trading, as they provide insights about where many orders were injected, creating this inefficiency in the market. The price tends to restore the balance.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters and detects the liquidity voids based on them, where detailed usage for each user-defined input parameter in indicator settings is provided with the related input's tooltip.
🔹 Liquidity Levels / Voids
Liquidity Levels/Voids: Color customization option for Unfilled Liquidity Levels/Voids.
Detection Length: Lookback period used for the calculation of Swing Levels.
Threshold %: Threshold used for the calculation of the Liquidity Levels & Voids.
Sensitivity: Adjusts the number of levels between two swing points, as a result, the height of a level is determined, and then based on the above-given threshold the level is checked if it matches the liquidity level/void conditions.
Filled Liquidity Levels/Voids: Toggles the visibility of the Filled Liquidity Levels/Voids and color customization option for Filled Liquidity Levels/Voids.
🔹 Other Features
Swing Highs/Lows: Toggles the visibility of the Swing Levels, where tooltips present statistical information, such as price, price change, and cumulative volume between the two swing levels detected based on the detection length specified above, Coloring options to customize swing low and swing high label colors, and Size option to adjust the size of the labels.
🔹 Display Options
Mode: Controls the lookback length of detection and visualization.
# Bars: Lookback length customization, in case Mode is set to Present.

Liquidity Hunter - FattyTradesThis indicator is used to automatically identify and plot two forms of liquidity that will be targeted by market makers.
The first form of liquidity is based on multi-time fame highs and lows. It plots 1H, 4H, D, W, & M liquidity on an intraday chart to make it easier to identify. I believe hat liquidity is what drives the market and the most common form of this liquidity can be identified through higher time frame highs and lows. You can use whatever method you prefer to determine which liquidity pool will be targeted. When the liquidity is purged, it will be shown as dotted lines. This should not be used as traditional support/resistance, but rather as targets for the market.
The second form of liquidity is in the form of imbalances or fair value gaps. You can select a higher time frame to be plotted along with the current time frame you're viewing to identify imbalances that will likely be targeted intraday. We know that higher time frame fair value gaps work equally well as targets for market makers. When a higher time frame FVG is broken into, it can also act as a very powerful form of support and resistance. By default, when a fair value gap has been mitigated it will be removed from the chart, however this can be disabled.
Between these two forms of market maker liquidity targets on the chart, it will be easier to formulate a thesis intraday to determine where the market will move. It can help minimize the amount of switching between higher time frames that needs to be done, allowing you to identify targets while trading on your favorite intraday time frame for optimal risk/reward.
In the near future, I will build in alerting mechanism to alert when liquidity on higher time frames as been purged/mitigated.
Liquidity Spike PoolThe “Liquidity Pools” indicator is a tool for market analysts that stands out for its ability to clearly project the intricate zones of manipulation present in financial markets. These crucial territories emerge when supply or demand takes over, resulting in long shadows (wicks) on the chart candles. Imagine these regions as "magnets" for prices, as they represent authentic "liquidity pools" where the flow of money into the market is significantly concentrated. But the value of the indicator goes beyond this simple visualization: these zones, when identified and interpreted correctly, can play a crucial role for traders looking for profitable entry points. They can mutate into important bastions of support or resistance, providing traders with key anchor points to make informed decisions within their trading strategies.
A key aspect to consider is the importance of different time frames in analyzing markets. Larger time frames, such as daily or 4h, tend to host larger and more relevant liquidity zones. Therefore, a successful strategy might involve identifying these areas of manipulation over longer time frames through the use of this indicator, and then applying these findings to shorter time frames. This approach allows you to turn manipulation zones into crucial reference points that merit constant surveillance while making trading decisions on shorter time frames.
The indicator uses color to convey information clearly and effectively:
- Dark blue lines highlight candles with significant upper wick, signaling the possible presence of an important manipulation area in the considered area.
- Dark red lines are reserved for sizable candlesticks with significant upper wick, emphasizing situations that are particularly relevant to traders.
- Dark gray lines highlight candles with significant lower wick, providing a valuable indication of manipulation zones where the bid may have prevailed.
- White lines highlight sizable candlesticks with significant lower wick, clearly indicating situations where demand has been predominant and may have helped form a liquidity pool.
This indicator constitutes an important resource for identifying and clearly displaying candles with significant wicks, allowing traders to distinguish between ordinary market conditions and circumstances particularly relevant to their trading strategies. Thanks to the distinctive colors of the lines, the indicator offers intuitive visual guidance, allowing traders to make more informed decisions while carrying out their analyses.
