ICT Smart Money Footprint [AGPro Series]

🔷 OVERVIEW

ICT Smart Money Footprint is a multi-timeframe price action engine that maps institutional liquidity behavior directly onto your chart. It combines higher-timeframe reaction zones (BSL/SSL) derived from swing pivots with candle-by-candle lower-timeframe footprint states — Liquidity Grab, Displacement, and Reclaim — into one cohesive visualization. A live panel tracks session bias, daily event counts, and zone lifecycle, giving price action traders a complete context window for ICT-style analysis across every timeframe.

🧭 UNIQUE EDGE

Most Smart Money Concept indicators plot every swing as a zone, producing cluttered charts that obscure the very structure they aim to reveal. This tool takes a different route. It separates the question "where is liquidity?" (answered at HTF with wide, contextual zones) from "what is price doing right now?" (answered at LTF with footprint labels). The two layers communicate through a single panel and a shared color palette, so the trader always sees both the macro landscape and the tactical footprint without layering multiple scripts. Priority filtering ensures only the highest-conviction event is printed per bar, and confluence windowing prevents label clustering.


⚙️ METHODOLOGY

The script runs two parallel engines.

The HTF Zone Engine pulls pivot highs and lows from a higher timeframe using request.security with lookahead disabled. Each confirmed pivot anchors a reaction zone sized by HTF ATR × 1.5, ensuring natural visibility on any chart view. Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) zones form above price at pivot highs; Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) zones form below price at pivot lows. Zones extend right via line.new with extend.right and a linefill between the two edges. When price tags a zone, the zone is marked mitigated: its lines switch to dashed style, width drops, color fades, and right extension freezes at the touch point.

The LTF Footprint Engine evaluates each confirmed candle for three events. Liquidity Grab triggers when price sweeps the prior LTF swing with a buffer and closes back inside range in the opposite direction. Displacement triggers when candle range exceeds ATR × multiplier and the candle breaks the prior bar's extreme. Reclaim triggers when price recovers a recently lost swing level within a 20-bar window. A priority filter (DISP > LG > REC) prints only the strongest event per bar and direction. A session bias score accumulates these events and resets daily, tinting the chart background and updating the panel in real time.


📡 SIGNALS & ALERTS

Six alert conditions are built in:
• Liquidity Grab (bull or bear)
• Displacement (bull or bear)
• HTF Mitigation (any zone tagged)
• Reclaim (bull or bear)
• Bias Turned Bullish
• Bias Turned Bearish

All alerts include ticker and interval placeholders for multi-chart monitoring.


🎛️ KEY INPUTS

HTF Source — Auto scales the higher timeframe to your chart (15m→4H, 1H→D, 4H→W, 1D→M), or pick a manual HTF.
HTF Pivot Length — controls strength threshold of liquidity zones.
HTF Zone Height (ATR x) — default 1.5; tune for wider or tighter zones.
LTF Pivot Length — swing sensitivity for LG and REC detection.
Displacement ATR Multiplier — default 2.0; raise for only the most explosive candles.
Sweep Buffer — extra cushion above or below swing levels for LG qualification.
Confluence Window — suppresses back-to-back same-direction labels.
Session Bias Band — subtle background tint reflecting daily event accumulation.
Panel Location, Theme, Font Size — full control over on-chart presentation.


🧩 HOW TO USE

Start with your normal trading timeframe. The HTF Source set to Auto will anchor the zones to a relevant higher timeframe. Watch how price interacts with the BSL and SSL zones: unmitigated HTF zones act as liquidity targets and reaction areas, while mitigated (dashed) zones mark where liquidity has already been absorbed.

Use the LTF footprint labels to read the tactical story inside those zones. A Liquidity Grab near an SSL zone hints at institutional accumulation. A Displacement candle after an LG often precedes a structural shift. A Reclaim of a recently lost level signals inducement and potential continuation. The panel's Session Bias gives you a running directional read; when it flips, an alert can fire.

Traders typically combine this tool with their own execution framework: HTF zones for bias and target selection, LTF footprints for timing and confirmation. The indicator provides the map; risk management, entry rules, and position sizing remain the trader's responsibility.


⚠️ LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY

This indicator is an analytical mapping tool, not a trading strategy. It identifies structural patterns and plots them for visual analysis.

HTF zones rely on request.security with lookahead disabled, which means new zones appear only after the HTF pivot is fully confirmed — this introduces a natural lag consistent with non-repainting practice but means some reactions may occur before the zone is drawn.

LTF footprint labels are confirmed on bar close. Intrabar signals during live bars may flicker until the bar closes.

Different market conditions produce different zone densities. Ranging markets generate more mitigated zones; trending markets leave more unmitigated zones above or below price. Use the Max Active Zones input to cap chart clutter.

Past structural patterns do not guarantee future outcomes. Liquidity sweeps can mark reversals or simply precede continuation moves. Always validate signals with your own analysis and broader market context.

UPDATE NOTES - V4.1

This update focuses on presentation quality, sequence selectivity, and cleaner real-time chart usability.
The core identity of the script remains the same: it is still a footprint-focused overlay built around liquidity sweep behavior, displacement expansion, reclaim logic, and higher-timeframe liquidity interaction.
Version 4.1 does not broaden the script into a generic all-in-one SMC package. Instead, it refines how the existing footprint narrative is filtered, displayed, and interpreted on live charts.

What changed

1. Added Display Mode control
A new Display Mode setting now allows the script to adapt its visual output to different use cases:
Full keeps the richest event detail.
Clean reduces lower-priority visual noise.
Publish prioritizes the clearest chart presentation for public screenshots and publishing workflows.
2. Added stronger sequence filtering
Sequence creation is now more selective through Filter Weak Sequences and Minimum Sequence Score controls.
This helps reduce lower-quality chains and keeps visible footprint ranges focused on stronger event progressions.
3. Improved footprint range styling
Projected footprint ranges now communicate state more clearly.
Active ranges, retested ranges, confirmed ranges, and invalidated ranges each have more distinct visual behavior, producing a cleaner and more premium chart read without changing the script's original purpose.
4. Added configurable range invalidation logic
Range Invalidation can now use either Close or Wick logic.
This gives traders more control over how strictly footprint ranges remain active when price challenges the opposite side of a projected range.
5. Upgraded the panel
The panel now includes Display status, a Sequence Meter, a sequence quality label, and a clearer readout of the current footprint state.
This makes the script easier to scan quickly without overcrowding the chart.
6. Improved publication-ready appearance
Publish mode reduces non-essential label clutter while keeping the most important sequence and confirmation information visible.
The goal is a cleaner and more readable chart image while preserving analytical context.

Why this update matters

Many structure-based overlays become harder to read as they accumulate labels and zones across live market conditions.
This update improves selectivity and visual hierarchy so the script can stay focused on meaningful footprint development rather than broadcasting every minor event equally.
The result is a cleaner workflow for traders who want to monitor how sweep, displacement, and reclaim behavior develop into a higher-quality directional footprint.
This keeps the script aligned with its original concept while improving readability, control, and visual finish.

Practical notes

- The script's main concept is unchanged.
- Existing users can keep the richer view with Full mode.
- Users who prefer a more publication-ready chart can switch to Publish mode.
- Stronger sequence filters are optional and configurable.

Summary

Version 4.1 is a refinement update centered on quality control and presentation.
It improves how footprint sequences are filtered, how projected ranges are styled, and how the chart communicates active state in real time, while keeping the script aligned with the original ICT Smart Money Footprint concept.

UPDATE NOTES - V4.4

This update focuses on weekly-chart presentation, visual hierarchy, and cleaner publication quality.
The core logic of the script remains unchanged. ICT Smart Money Footprint still centers on liquidity sweep behavior, displacement expansion, reclaim logic, and projected footprint ranges.
Version 4.4 is a refinement pass designed to improve how the script presents that information, especially on higher timeframes and publication-ready chart layouts.

What changed

1. Improved weekly-chart presentation
This update refines how the script behaves in weekly-style views so the chart reads more clearly as a structured footprint story rather than a collection of disconnected elements.

2. Added stronger distant HTF zone suppression
New controls now allow distant higher-timeframe zones to be compressed or fully hidden when they are too far from current price context.
This helps keep long-range views focused on the most relevant liquidity areas instead of letting very remote zones dominate the chart.

3. Reduced lower-priority weekly label noise
Minor displacement and reclaim labels are now suppressed more aggressively in weekly-style presentation.
This keeps the higher-timeframe view cleaner and allows sequence and confirmation events to stand out more clearly.

4. Stronger hero range emphasis
The most important active footprint range now receives clearer visual priority.
This helps the chart communicate where the current footprint story matters most instead of treating all visible ranges equally.

5. Better active-state communication in the panel
The panel now gives more weight to the active footprint condition rather than letting smaller isolated events compete for attention.
This improves scan speed and keeps the summary aligned with the chart's main narrative.

6. Cleaner idle-state panel behavior
When active ranges and sequence counts are not contributing meaningful live context, the panel now presents that state more cleanly instead of displaying low-signal numeric clutter.

Why this update matters

As footprint-based overlays evolve, visual discipline becomes just as important as signal quality.
Higher-timeframe charts can quickly lose impact when distant zones, minor labels, and low-priority objects compete equally for attention.

Version 4.4 improves visual focus so the script can better highlight the strongest active footprint context, especially in weekly presentation.
The result is a cleaner and more publication-ready chart while preserving the original analytical framework.

Practical notes

- The script's main concept has not changed.
- Users who prefer broader visibility can still keep more on-chart detail through the existing display controls.
- Users preparing cleaner public chart layouts can benefit from the new distant-zone suppression and weekly-oriented presentation refinements.

Summary

Version 4.4 is a presentation and clarity update.
It improves higher-timeframe chart balance, reduces unnecessary weekly clutter, strengthens active range emphasis, and makes the script better suited for clean publication screenshots while staying faithful to the original ICT Smart Money Footprint concept.

🔧 UPDATE NOTES - v4.8

This update focuses on chart readability, labeled zones, and premium presentation.

The core purpose of the script remains unchanged.
This release improves how the existing footprint logic is presented, organized, and interpreted on the chart.

This script continues to function as an analytical and visualization tool.
It does not attempt to predict price direction or provide guaranteed outcomes.


------------------------
What Changed
------------------------

- Every footprint range now carries a centered badge
Each footprint range displays a centered badge with its sequence score, direction, and state, so no zone is ever left unlabeled. The strongest range stays the most prominent, while secondary and spent ranges are shown more subtly but remain clearly labeled.

- Distant higher-timeframe zones are now managed on every timeframe
Previously, oversized far-away liquidity zones could dominate the chart on intraday and daily views. Distance-based fading and hiding now apply across all timeframes, so the chart stays focused on the context that sits near current price.

- Redesigned on-chart labels for stronger readability
Sweep, displacement, reclaim, sequence, and confirmation labels use a filled state-color background with high-contrast text, so they remain clearly visible against candles in both light and dark themes instead of blending into price action.

- Panel readability across light and dark themes
The summary banner and panel values use theme-aware colors with solid backgrounds, so every row stays clearly readable whether the panel is set to dark or light. The summary banner now reads more cleanly in idle conditions.

- Reduced label overlap and clustering
Sequence and confirmation labels were lifted further from candles and given wider default spacing, removing the cramped, overlapping label stacks that could appear on compressed charts.

- Cleaner distant-zone rendering
Very distant zones are now fully suppressed rather than left as faint remnants, removing stray visual artifacts for a cleaner presentation.


------------------------
Visual Improvements
------------------------

- Improved chart readability by adjusting labels, zone visibility, badges, and spacing

- Reduced visual clutter to enhance first-glance interpretation

- Refined visual hierarchy so the strongest footprint range and key events stand out more clearly

- Adjusted label positioning to keep zone badges centered and clear of candles


------------------------
Interface & Usability
------------------------

- Optimized panel layout and color contrast for clearer information flow in both themes

- Improved label and badge readability for better chart interaction

- Added an optional focus label control for footprint range badges

- Enhanced overall presentation without changing core logic


------------------------
Behavior Notes
------------------------

This update does not change the core analytical logic of the script.

The goal is to improve clarity and usability, not to introduce new predictive behavior.

Users should interpret outputs the same way as before, but with improved visual structure.


------------------------
Limitations Reminder
------------------------

The script remains a rule-based analytical and visualization tool.

Market conditions such as volatility, liquidity, and timeframe differences may affect how zones, labels, and states appear.

Outputs should always be interpreted within broader market context.

🔧 UPDATE NOTES - v4.9

This update focuses on readability and decision transparency.

The core purpose of the script remains unchanged.
This release hardens on-chart label contrast and adds an honest follow-through
statistic so the strength of footprint sequences is easier to judge at a glance.

This script continues to function as an analytical and visualization tool.
It does not attempt to predict price direction or provide guaranteed outcomes.


------------------------
What Changed
------------------------

• Stop-Aware Footprint Follow Rate
A new "Follow Rate" panel row reports how often an armed footprint sequence
went on to travel one full range height beyond the footprint range before the
range invalidation edge was crossed. A win means the follow-through target was
reached first and a loss means the invalidation edge was crossed first, which
reuses the script's own range geometry, now measured across history. Sequences
that resolve neither way inside the range lifetime are left uncounted, and the
row shows the sample size and reads "Building" until enough sequences have
completed. This adds context to the live sequence score without changing how
the score, states, ranges, or any detection is calculated.

• Hardened Label Contrast
Every sweep, displacement, reclaim, sequence, and confirmation label and the
footprint range focus badge now select their text color from the brightness of
their own background, so bullish, bearish, neutral, and accent elements stay
legible. This corrects light text that previously sat on lighter fills.

• ATR Hardening
The internal ATR reference is now protected against empty early-bar readings,
keeping displacement strength, sequence scoring, and label spacing stable on
the very first bars of a chart and on thin or newly listed symbols.

• Cleaner Panel
The character-based sequence meter row was removed in favor of the numeric
sequence score, keeping the panel fully numeric and easier to read.


------------------------
Visual Improvements
------------------------

• Improved chart readability by hardening label and badge contrast

• Preserved the existing HTF zones, footprint ranges, and event layout

• Refined visual hierarchy so footprint focus badges stay clear

• Maintained the same premium presentation across display modes


------------------------
Interface & Usability
------------------------

• Optimized panel layout with a new footprint follow-through row

• Improved label readability for better chart interaction

• Adjusted default visual presentation for a more balanced appearance

• Enhanced overall user experience without changing core logic


------------------------
Behavior Notes
------------------------

This update does not change the core analytical logic of the script.

The sweep, displacement, reclaim, HTF zone, sequence, and footprint range logic
behave the same as before. The Follow Rate is an observational statistic only.

Users should interpret outputs the same way as before, but with improved visual
structure and added follow-through context.


------------------------
Limitations Reminder
------------------------

The script remains a rule-based analytical tool.

Market conditions such as volatility, liquidity, and timeframe differences may
affect how sweeps, displacements, footprint ranges, and the follow rate appear.

The follow rate is a historical observation on the current chart and does not
predict future sequences. Outputs should always be interpreted within broader
market context.

🔧 UPDATE NOTES - V5.0

This update focuses on visual ownership, collision prevention, and cleaner footprint prioritization.

• Rebuilt HTF liquidity-zone identities as centered, high-contrast BSL | HTF and SSL | HTF badges.
• Added hero-range prioritization so Clean and Publish views retain only the strongest active bull and bear footprints.
• Retired invalid or expired footprint visuals atomically while preserving the underlying sequence logic.
• Added event priority rules that prevent confirmation, sequence, and general event badges from competing on the same bar.
• Replaced repeated panel recreation with a persistent panel lifecycle for lighter chart updates.

The core ICT footprint, sequence, reclaim, mitigation, and scoring logic remains unchanged.
