Wave Navigator Cycle [Adaptive]

Wave Navigator Cycle [Adaptive System]
Overview
The Wave Navigator System is a comprehensive technical indicator designed to trade the "Distorted Cycle." Unlike traditional indicators that lag behind price, this system uses an Adaptive Sine Wave to map out market phases in real-time, helping traders identify when the market is in a state of Preparation, Expansion (Ride the Wave), or Distribution.
This tool integrates high-probability Smart Money Concepts (SMC) including Liquidity Sweeps, Displacement, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to provide a complete roadmap for trend following and reversal trading.
Key Features
1. Adaptive Sine Wave Cycle
At the core of this indicator is a dynamic sine wave anchored to an ALMA (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average).
- Preparation Phase: Price is at the cycle bottom (Low Zone), looking for Sell-Side Liquidity.
- Ride the Wave: The sine wave turns green and rises, signalling a bullish trend expansion.
- Distribution Phase: Price reaches the cycle peak (High Zone), looking for Buy-Side Liquidity.
- Displacement Down: The sine wave turns red, signalling a shift in market structure and a bearish move.
2. Liquidity Sweep Detection
The indicator automatically marks "Equal Highs" and "Equal Lows" that have been swept.
- X Marks: Buy-Side Liquidity Sweeps (Potential Short setups).
- Triangle Marks: Sell-Side Liquidity Sweeps (Potential Long setups).
3. Smart Displacement & FVGs
The system doesn't just look for big candles; it calculates Relative Displacement. When price moves with high volume and volatility, the indicator identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVG).
- Emerald Boxes: Bullish FVGs (Targets for "Retrace to FVG" longs).
- Maroon Boxes: Bearish FVGs (Targets for "Retrace to FVG" shorts).
4. Real-Time Dashboard
A built-in HUD (Heads-Up Display) in the top-right corner monitors the Cycle Power and explicitly labels the current market phase, so you never have to guess where you are in the "Distorted Cycle."

How to Trade with Wave Navigator
1. Identify the Zone: Look for the Sine Wave to enter the "Preparation" (Low) or "Distribution" (High) zones.
2. Wait for the Sweep: Look for a Liquidity Sweep icon to appear at the cycle extremes.
3. Confirm with Displacement: Wait for a Displacement Arrow and a coloured Sine Wave flip (Green for Up / Red for Down).
4. The Entry: Enter on the Retrace to FVG (the coloured boxes) once the wave has begun its new direction.
Settings
- Base MA Length: Adjust this to change the "frequency" of the wave (Higher = Swing Trading, Lower = Scalping).
- Displacement Sensitivity: Fine-tune how "aggressive" the price move must be to trigger an FVG.
- Sine Opacity: Customise the visual intensity of the trend wave.
Disclaimer: Trading involves significant risk. This indicator is a tool for analysis and should be used in conjunction with a robust trading plan and proper risk management.
