Sweep Reversal Map for MetaTrader 5
Overview
Sweep Reversal Map is a multi-timeframe price-action indicator designed to identify potential reversals following liquidity sweeps.
Markets frequently move beyond established swing highs or lows before reversing back through the swept level. These moves can trap breakout traders and may indicate that price is rejecting the breakout area.
The indicator analyses this sequence through three key stages: liquidity sweep, reclaim, and market structure confirmation. It then marks the resulting reversal zone directly on the chart.
Rather than treating every breakout beyond a swing level as a reversal, Sweep Reversal Map uses configurable volatility and structure filters to help distinguish developing setups from confirmed ones.
How It Works
1. Swing-Level Detection
The indicator identifies historical swing highs and swing lows using a configurable swing length.
These levels act as reference points for detecting potential liquidity sweeps. A move beyond a previous swing level can indicate that price has traded through an area where breakout orders or stop-loss orders may be concentrated.
2. Liquidity Sweep Detection
A sweep occurs when price penetrates a previously identified swing level.
The minimum penetration setting allows the trader to require a specified degree of penetration relative to the Average True Range (ATR).
This helps adjust the sensitivity of sweep detection to the volatility of the instrument.
3. Reclaim and Reversal Development
After the sweep, the indicator monitors whether price returns through the relevant level and begins developing a potential reversal.
Developing setups can be displayed before the full confirmation sequence is complete. These are useful for monitoring a potential opportunity, but they should not be treated as equivalent to confirmed reversals.
4. Market Structure Confirmation
The indicator evaluates local market structure following the sweep and looks for a qualifying displacement move.
The structure length, maximum confirmation bars, and minimum displacement body relative to ATR can be configured.
This introduces a confirmation stage after the initial liquidity event, helping traders distinguish a developing reversal from a move that has demonstrated a stronger change in local price behaviour.
5. Reversal Zone Mapping
Once a setup satisfies the confirmation rules, the indicator draws a reversal zone around the relevant price structure.
Developing and confirmed zones can use different fill, border, level, and marker opacities. Historical setups can also be retained on the chart for context.

Suggested Trading Workflow
-
Mark the broader market direction and important support or resistance levels.
-
Watch for price to sweep a previously established swing high or low.
-
Monitor the reclaim and any developing reversal zone.
-
Wait for the indicator's structure-confirmation conditions to be met.
-
Evaluate the confirmed zone against the broader timeframe, available space to the next level, and your risk-to-reward requirements.
-
Define a clear invalidation point before entering a trade.
Suitable For
-
Smart Money Concepts and liquidity-based traders.
-
Traders studying stop runs and failed breakouts.
-
Price-action traders seeking confirmation after a swing-level sweep.
-
Intraday traders who combine lower-timeframe execution with higher-timeframe context.
-
Traders who want potential and confirmed reversal zones distinguished visually.
Important Notes
A liquidity sweep does not necessarily lead to a reversal. Price may continue in the direction of the breakout, and a structure confirmation can still fail.
Higher-timeframe zones depend on the selected timeframe and the available source data. Use developing zones as monitoring tools, not as confirmed entry signals. Apply independent confirmation and appropriate risk management before trading.
