Liquidity Matrix

2 887
Session ORB • Fair Value Gaps • Order Blocks

Built for Futures & Gold Traders

Liquidity Matrix is a market structure tool designed to map the most important liquidity zones in the market using a combination of session-based opening ranges, price imbalances, and institutional order flow levels.

The indicator integrates Opening Range Breakouts (ORB), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), and Order Blocks (OB) into a single clean framework while automatically managing clutter through smart zone mitigation.

It is particularly suited for Gold (XAUUSD), index futures, and other instruments trading on CME Globex, with built-in awareness of the futures trading week and global session structure.

Core Features
Session Opening Range (ORB)

The indicator tracks the first 15-minute opening range of each major trading session.

Sessions included:

• Asia Session – default 23:00–07:00 London
• London Session – default 08:00–11:00 London
• New York Session – automatically adjusted for DST

Instead of drawing boxes, the ORB is displayed as clean horizontal lines representing the high and low of the opening range, providing a clear visual reference for:

• breakout levels
• liquidity sweeps
• session bias shifts

Fair Value Gaps (FVG)

The indicator identifies three-candle price imbalances where the market moves aggressively leaving unfilled liquidity.

Definition used:

Bullish FVG
Low > High[2]

Bearish FVG
High < Low[2]

Each gap is displayed as a price zone extending forward for a default of 10 bars, preventing the chart from becoming overloaded with infinite zones.

Users can adjust the length if needed.

Smart Mitigation System

FVG zones are automatically removed once they are mitigated using selectable logic:

• Touch – price enters the zone
• Close Through – candle closes beyond the far boundary
• Full Fill – price completely traverses the imbalance

This keeps the chart focused only on active liquidity gaps.

Order Blocks (OB)

Order blocks are detected using swing structure and break-of-structure logic.

Bullish OB
Break above previous swing high → last bearish candle

Bearish OB
Break below previous swing low → last bullish candle

Zones extend forward 10 bars by default and can be expanded through the settings panel.

OB Mitigation Options

Order blocks are automatically removed once price interacts with them based on:

• Touch
• Close Through
• Full Fill

This prevents stacking and maintains a clean structure map.

Futures Market Awareness

Unlike most session indicators designed for Forex, Liquidity Matrix respects CME Globex trading hours.

The indicator automatically filters activity outside the futures trading week:

Trading week
Sunday 23:00 London → Friday 22:00 London

Daily maintenance break
22:00 → 23:00 London

This ensures sessions and zones reflect actual tradable market conditions.

Automatic DST Handling

The New York session adjusts automatically for daylight saving changes by calculating the real-time offset between London and New York.

This ensures the NYSE open (09:30 New York time) always appears at the correct London equivalent.

Typical mappings:

• Winter – 14:30 London
• US DST mismatch weeks – 13:30 or 15:30 London

No manual adjustments required.

Designed For

This indicator is especially useful for:

• Gold traders (XAUUSD)
• Index futures traders
• Smart money / ICT style trading
• Session-based breakout strategies
• Liquidity and imbalance analysis

Key Advantages

• Clean chart design
• Automatic zone cleanup
• Futures-aware sessions
• DST-adjusted New York open
• Adjustable zone lengths
• Configurable mitigation logic

Default Behaviour

By default the indicator:

• Displays ORB levels as lines only
• Limits FVG and OB zones to 10 bars forward
• Removes zones automatically once mitigated
• Filters non-tradable futures hours

This ensures the chart remains focused on actionable liquidity zones rather than historical clutter.

🔧 ORB Setup Engine – Visual & Logic Update (Tightened Build)

This update focuses on clarity, structure, and real trading usability — not just internal logic.

✅ What’s New
📦 Clean ORB Structure
Opening Range (ORB) box clearly defines the session range
Persistent ORB High / ORB Low / Midpoint lines
Levels now extend forward for real decision-making (not stuck to candles)
📊 Range-Based Projections
Automatic projection levels based on ORB range:
+0.5 / +1 / +2 (bullish expansion)
-0.5 / -1 / -2 (bearish expansion)
Acts as target zones, expansion guides, and liquidity references
⚡ Event Markers (Now Meaningful)
BRK → Break outside ORB
CONF → Valid continuation or reversal confirmation
ENTRY → First valid return into eligible FVG
X → Setup invalidated

Markers are now positioned correctly using price logic (not floating or misaligned).

🧠 Logic Improvements
📈 True Displacement Leg Handling
The engine now:
Confirms narrative → starts displacement
Collects ALL valid FVGs during the same leg
Stops only when the leg ends (stall or pullback)
🎯 First Valid Retest Model
No more “single FVG bias”

Entry triggers on:

first return into ANY valid FVG from the displacement leg

❌ Proper Invalidation
Continuation fails if price returns back inside the ORB (configurable)
Reversal fails if sweep extreme is broken (wick or close based)
🚫 No FVG = No Trade
If no imbalance forms after confirmation:
→ setup completes with no entry (correct behavior)
📊 Status Table (Top Right)

Live tracking of:

Current state (Waiting / Triggered / Invalidated / Completed)
Narrative (Continuation / Reversal)
Direction (Long / Short)
ORB levels
FVG count
Final outcome
🎯 What This Means for Trading

This version behaves closer to how a trader actually thinks:

ORB → Break / Sweep → Confirm → Displacement → FVG set → Retest → Entry

Not:

“first gap wins” or visually-driven logic

⚠️ Important Note
MSS / ChoCH is still a lightweight proxy
This is intentional for speed and practicality
A full structural engine will come in a later version
🧪 Current State

This is a testing-grade build with production-level visuals

Next phase will focus on:

Stronger structure logic (true ICT-style MSS)
Cleaner displacement definitions
Optional OB integration
