The Trader Structure
- 指标
- 版本: 2.50
The Trader Market Structure is a free MetaTrader 5 indicator that combines market structure, Fair Value Gaps, Order Blocks and Liquidity Sweeps on a single chart.
It helps traders follow the sequence of highs and lows, identify confirmed structural breaks and highlight price areas for further analysis.
Market Structure
The indicator identifies:
-
HH — Higher High
-
HL — Higher Low
-
LH — Lower High
-
LL — Lower Low
-
BOS — Break of Structure
-
CHoCH — Change of Character
Swing points are confirmed after the specified number of candles to their right have closed. BOS and CHoCH require a candle close beyond the relevant structural level.
Compact labels and thin connecting lines link each displayed event to its corresponding price point or level.
Fair Value Gaps
The FVG module identifies bullish and bearish three-candle price imbalances. A zone is created only after the third candle closes.
The indicator tracks subsequent touches, partial filling and complete filling. Available settings include minimum gap size, historical depth, extension length, maximum visible zones and hiding filled gaps.
FVG zones use blue dashed outlines.
Order Blocks
Order Blocks are identified from the last opposite-direction candle before a directional impulse that produces a confirmed BOS. Zone boundaries use the high and low of the original candle.
The indicator tracks touches and invalidation. A bullish block is invalidated by a candle close below its lower boundary; a bearish block is invalidated by a close above its upper boundary.
Order Blocks use gold solid outlines, making them visually distinct from FVG zones.
Liquidity Sweeps
The module detects a wick extending beyond a previously confirmed swing level, followed by a candle close back inside that level:
-
LIQ BUY: price moves below a confirmed swing low and closes above it.
-
LIQ SELL: price moves above a confirmed swing high and closes below it.
Settings include a minimum penetration distance and a limit on retained markers. Repeated sweep signals from the same swing level are restricted.
Control Panel
Five chart buttons provide independent display controls:
-
BG: switch between Dark and Light themes.
-
STR: show or hide market structure.
-
FVG: show or hide Fair Value Gaps.
-
OB: show or hide Order Blocks.
-
LIQ: show or hide Liquidity Sweeps.
Hiding a module does not disable its internal calculations. The indicator preserves the user’s candle colors.
Display Settings
Choose between Minimal, Standard and Detailed display modes. Customize fonts, spacing, colors, structural line lengths and the number of visible labels and zones.
FVG and OB labels are placed inside their rectangles. When space is insufficient, labels are shortened or hidden while the underlying zone remains available.
BOS and CHoCH receive priority during label placement. Overlapping FVG and OB zones remain separate analytical objects. Display limits do not alter calculated market events.
Timeframes and Alerts
The analysis source can be the current chart period, M5, M15, H1, H4 or D1. Selecting a source timeframe lower than the current chart timeframe is not supported.
Optional terminal alerts and push notifications are available for confirmed events. Notifications are disabled by default.
Getting Started
Attach the indicator to a chart, select the swing depth and enable the modules you need.
Market structure is enabled by default, with Minimal display mode selected. FVG, OB and LIQ are initially disabled and can be enabled using their chart buttons.
The Trader Market Structure is free to use. It is intended for visual technical analysis, does not execute trades and does not use DLLs.
BUY and SELL labels indicate the direction of an analytical event or zone. They are not standalone trade entry instructions.
