The CISD with STDV ICT indicator for cTrader is a tool designed to detect market structure shifts, known as Change in State of Delivery (CISD), and automatically generate projection levels to anticipate price movements. It analyzes real-time price action to identify transitions between bullish and bearish phases, drawing up to five customizable target levels with adjustable multipliers that dynamically extend as price evolves.
Key features include automatic detection of bullish and bearish CISD patterns with configurable validation thresholds and filters, and automatic invalidation upon market structure breaks. The indicator provides a clean, color-coded chart overlay highlighting active ranges and CISD zones, with optional labels and base level display.
A multi-timeframe (MTF) panel displays real-time bullish or bearish bias across multiple timeframes from 1 minute to 1 week, calculating confluence and generating signals such as BUY, SELL, LEAN BULL, LEAN BEAR, or WAITING. The built-in confluence engine aggregates signals from selected timeframes to provide a percentage-based directional bias.
Customization options allow enabling/disabling specific timeframes, adjusting projection multipliers, toggling visual elements, and controlling the number of displayed CISDs. This indicator is suited for price action traders, smart money concept users, and intraday or swing traders seeking structured, rule-based signals across various markets including Forex, indices, commodities, crypto, and stocks.
