~~~~

I personally use this indicator for the following purposes:

1. By observations, the first 5mins candle shows signs of strength / weakness at the London session;

2. Within that 5mins candle, micro structures may appear, such as 1m / 2m / 3m structures with FVGs (Fair Value Gap) and / or OBs (Order Block);

3. The immediately following 5mins candle either respect or reject the first 5mins, can provide more insights of the market maker's intentions;

4. This indicator cannot use along, it must follow the HTF (Higher Time Frame) structure, such as 15mins, 1H, 4H.
