Sweep Two Bar Reclaim

Sweep Two-Bar Reclaim MT5

Systematic Structural Liquidity Sweep and Two-Bar Reclaim Reversal Engine

The Sweep Two-Bar Reclaim indicator for MetaTrader 5 provides an objective analytical framework designed to identify high-probability reversal opportunities resulting from liquidity sweeps around key price boundaries. Price frequently sweeps past an established structural level to trigger stop orders or breakout entries, only to abruptly reverse and collapse back into the prior range.

This software algorithmically detects when an initial sweep bar penetrates a structural extreme and a subsequent reclaim bar re-establishes control back inside that boundary. By validating that the sweep was an exhaustion event or liquidity grab, the indicator delivers structured on-chart validation strictly upon candle close, ensuring fully non-repainting execution references.

Algorithmic Logic and Trade Validation

The calculation engine operates exclusively on closed bar data. Historical signal markers remain anchored to their respective price bars and do not recalculate, shift, or repaint over time.

Bullish Two-Bar Reclaim Setup (BUY)

• Sweep Bar: The market tests below a prior structural swing low with an initial sweep bar.
• Reclaim Bar: The immediate subsequent bar decisively reclaims the structural level and closes firmly higher, confirming buyer absorption and control.
• Execution Reference: Confirmation is locked strictly at the reclaim candle close. The opening price of the immediate subsequent bar serves as the operational execution reference.

Bearish Two-Bar Reclaim Setup (SELL)

• Sweep Bar: The market tests above a prior structural swing high with an initial sweep bar.
• Reclaim Bar: The immediate subsequent bar decisively reclaims the structural level and closes firmly lower, confirming seller absorption and control.
• Execution Reference: Confirmation is locked strictly at the reclaim candle close. The opening price of the immediate subsequent bar serves as the operational execution reference.

Integrated Risk Architecture and Target Ladder

Rather than providing isolated directional arrows, the indicator projects an end-to-end trade execution structure directly onto the active chart:

• Dynamic Structural Invalidation (Stop Loss): The Stop Loss reference is automatically positioned outside the structural extreme formed by the sweep bar, incorporating a configurable volatility buffer to accommodate standard spread variations and short-term market noise.
• Standardized 4-Tier R-Multiple Targets: Profit objectives are mathematically projected based on the initial calculated risk distance (1R):
  • TP1 (0.5R): Initial objective configured for early partial scale-outs on immediate momentum continuation.
  • TP2 (0.8R): Intermediate milestone capturing standard continuation swings.
  • TP3 (1.2R): Extended target capturing broader trending impulse waves.
  • TP4 (2.0R): Full expansion runner target designed to capture extended directional trend moves.
• Lifecycle State Tracking: Each projected setup is tracked on-chart with dedicated real-time lifecycle states (Active, TP Hit, SL Hit).

Analytical Modules and Dashboard Capabilities

Multi-Symbol & Multi-Timeframe Scanner Dashboard

• Monitors multiple assets simultaneously across standard timeframes: M15, M30, H1, H4, and D1.
• Active Signal Discovery: Scans and displays active BUY and SELL setups across all monitored symbols from a single workspace.
• Signal Status Tracking: Displays real-time progress of active setups (active, approaching TP, approaching SL).
• Higher Timeframe Confluence: Validates directional alignment between lower-timeframe execution triggers and higher-timeframe trends.
• Market Bias Summary: Provides an integrated directional reading (UP, DOWN, or FLAT) derived from the indicator's trend filter.
• One-Click Chart Navigation: Clicking any dashboard cell immediately switches the active chart to the selected symbol and timeframe.

Whipsaw Mitigation Engine (Signal Brake)

• Suppresses rapid, alternating BUY/SELL flip-flopping within tight consolidation ranges.
• Restricts redundant same-direction signals while a prior setup remains active.
• Enforces a minimum structural R-distance before a new setup in the same direction can trigger.

On-Chart Historical Backtest Panel

• Summarizes historical performance metrics for the currently applied settings directly on the chart:
• Historical hit-rate breakdown across TP1, TP2, TP3, and TP4.
• Sample size display over the configured historical lookback period.
• Highlights the historically optimal target tier for the active configuration.
• Integrated sample-size indicator to assist in judging statistical relevance.

Statistical Notice: Historical distribution figures reflect past price data under specific settings. Past results do not guarantee future performance.
