Super OrderBlock / FVG / BoS Tools by makuchaku & eFeThis super indicator is a Swiss army knife for Smart Money traders for OrderBlocks / FVG / BoS
It provides many options for drawing (non-repainting) boxes for OrderBlocks, Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Break of Structures. The boxes are extended into the future, until the first retest/mitigation.
Some of the additional options (not explained in the diagrams above)
PPDD OB : An order block which is formed after interacting with Liquidity (old low/high, fractal low/high, etc). Since these OB's are in the most premium or most discount, they are Premium Premium Discount Discount OB's (PPDD OB)
HVB Bars : When the volume of any bar is higher than the average volume of last N bars, it could mean something important (in the right context). Hence, the indicator allows for coloring them differently.
This indicator was built as a collaboration between @makuchaku & eFe
Pro tip : This indicator is a simply a tool to visualize trading concepts on the candle stick chart. It is the job of the trader to sequence these effectively into a profitable trade.
If you come across any bug or have a question on how to effectively use the indicator, please don't hesitate to ask questions.
Good luck & good trading!

IPDA operating range by makuchakuDetermining operating range is critical for trading.
You *need* to sell in premium & buy in discount.
This script determines an operating range by stepping back on an HTF timeframe to calculate that HTF candle's range. If the current candle in HTF breaks out, the range expands accordingly.
The timeframe mapping I've used is
Intraday & <= 2H : use Daily as HTF range
Intraday & > 2H : use Weekly as HTF range
Daily : use Monthly as HTF range
Weekly : use 6 Months as HTF range
The HTF mapping is my own personal preference. If you prefer, you can easily copy the indicator and create your own mapping.
Once the HTF range is known, the indicator also plots 0%, 25%, 50% and 100% levels.
Day/Week/Month/3M/6M/12M MTF breaks by makuchakuThis indicator plots breaks for multiple timeframes. Works on Daily to Yearly timeframes.
Currently supported timeframes :
Daily
Weekly
Monthly
Quarterly
Half Yearly
Yearly
It currently plots all breaks together. From Indicator settings hide what you don't need and save as default settings.
MTF ATR Levels by makuchakuKnowing how big a range one is operating in (from a higher time frame perspective) is very important to understand where the reversals could potentially come from.
This indicator uses the closing price of previous HTF candle and plots its ATR range - and several levels on top of it.
+/- 75%
+/- 100%
+/- 150%
+/- 200%
+/- 300%
Makuchaku's trading tools - Liquidity visualizerThis indicator plots those pivots/fractals which have not been taken out by price, whereby showing where are the clusters of highs/lows where stop orders (or liquidity) could be hiding.
This is a fantastic tool for taking reversal trades.
Makuchaku's Trade Tools - Pivots/Fractals & CrossoversPivots/Fractals are at minimum a 3 candlestick pattern.
Bearish pivot/fractal is formed when a candle is flanked by 2 lower candles on either side
Bullish pivot/fractal is formed when a candle is flanked by 2 higher candles on either side
They are great to determine market structure.
This indicator also prints boxes when those pivots/fractals are crossed over, printing bearish & bullish boxes.
Makuchaku's Trade Tools - Fair Value GapsFair Value Gaps are a 3 candlesticks patterns, formed when the 3rd candle does not fully overlaps the 1st candle, leaving a gap in the 2nd candle.
Makuchaku's Trade Tools - Order BlocksOrder blocks are a 2 candlestick pattern
Bullish order block : down candle getting engulfed by an up candle
Bearish order block : up candle getting engulfed by a down candle
Broken Fractal : Someone's broken dream is your profit!Idea
The idea is simple : when market turns around, it traps a bunch of traders off guard. We trade with them, in the same direction of their exit!
Method
We let the market first create a fractal
We then let the market create an opposite fractal
We then let the market break the first fractal it created, thereby trapping lots of trades in the process
We then patiently wait till the market gives these trapped traders a chance to exit - and we trade in the same direction
How to use?
Green boxes are for long entry, red boxes are for short.
Whenever a box appears, that's the risk criteria - setup limit orders and trade along!
Works on all timeframes
If you like this script, please leave a note on how you are using it.
I personally use it with Higher Timeframe bias.
PS1 : some traders call this Break of market structure, some call it Breaker, I just call it "Broken Fractal"
PS2 : Break of a broken fractal is also very potent. Watch out for those!
Fair Value Gap / FVG - HTF Orderflow bias / trendCalculates Fair Value Gap (FVG) as a counter and plots it below price.
FVG Counter value resets to +ve or -ve once the FVG counter reverses direction.
Use this script to find a bias to trade with.
Best used on HTF (like 1W, 1D), so the bias can be transferred to LTF (like 4H, 1H).
If you end up using this script, please leave a comment below on how you used it. I can try to incorporate those ideas in an update.
Cheers!
Line Chart Enhancer by makuchakuTradingview has a good line chart, but I wanted to make it even more awesome.
Some shortcomings which this line chart enhancer script fixes
Colors up move as green, down move as red (you can change them as you like)
Plots high and low - so that one can be aware about what the price is doing
