Description

The indicator detects MSS (Market Structure Shift) patterns built from fractal highs and lows.

A valid MSS requires:

  1. A sequence of 4 fractal swing points
  2. A break of the previous swing structure
  3. Confirmation in the opposite direction
  4. Optional confirmation from 4H bias

When detected, the indicator provides:

  • Visual pattern lines
  • Fibonacci entry level (50%)
  • On-chart alert panel
  • Optional sound alert
  • Bias direction display

    4-HOUR BIAS FILTER

When enabled, the indicator filters signals using the previous 4H candle.

  • Bullish 4H candle β†’ only bullish MSS shown
  • Bearish 4H candle β†’ only bearish MSS shown

This prevents trading against higher-timeframe momentum.

The bias is updated automatically every few minutes and displayed on chart.

FIBONACCI ENTRY LEVEL

After detecting MSS, the indicator calculates:

50% retracement between the last two swing points

This level represents:

  • Institutional re-entry zone
  • Optimal pullback area
  • Risk-efficient entry price

The level is drawn as a horizontal line.

the setup improves when it makes the setup easier to question, and the first test should keep DD under 3 percent.

The first reaction should not be the only input, but clean zones can still fail.
