Reading the market regime before prices move
Price breaks a clear high, so you buy. The next day it falls back below it. That was not a breakout. It was stop orders being filled above the high. These tools draw those places on the candles: gaps, order blocks, equal highs and trend shifts. Then they tell you what they found in one sentence.

Price is drawn to where many traders are waiting: above clear highs and below clear lows.
Two highs at almost the same price. Many traders place their stop-loss above them.
The latest clear highs and lows on a higher timeframe: weekly and monthly on the daily chart.
In a clean downtrend, price rises above a previous high, even by a little. The stop orders there are filled.
Price makes a new high, then closes below the low before it. This is the first change in the shape of the trend.
When price moves fast, it leaves behind a range where little trading took place, and it often comes back to it.
Three candles where the wick of the first does not meet the wick of the third. Price jumped and did not stop.
A wide drop or rise between two candles of the same color. It is more than four times the daily range, or 2.5%.
A candle whose body is four fifths of its range, with a range larger than usual. Then price comes back to its midpoint.
Three or more large candles in one direction, each closing further than the one before.
A trend made a new high and then failed, so price broke the last low. The broken level becomes a reference.
Three steps. A momentum candle breaks the high of the last thirty candles, then an opposite candle closes through it, then price comes back to it.
Not every rise is a trend: these tools ask for more than one piece of evidence before they call a move strong.
Five measures agree on one day: one-year performance, relative strength, money flow, the CCI indicator, and volume five times the usual level.
RSI crosses above 60, then cools off below it, then comes back. Price then breaks the high of the first crossing day.
For minute timeframes within the day. Price is above the volume-weighted average price of the day and above the Supertrend, and MACD and Stochastic confirm.
After the Supertrend flips, we wait. We do not count the trend as in place until price moves one and a half ranges away from the flip point.
The previous period's high, low and value area: numbers everyone can see, so price often pauses at them.
The previous week's high, low and midpoint, then extensions of its range. On minute timeframes it uses the previous session.
Where did price spend most of its time last month? We count the closes in 21 price rows.

What we changed: the tools are calculated on completed candles only, so no mark changes after it appears · we fixed an error in the bullish Liquidity Sweep signal · a cross caused only by renumbering points does not count · default settings suit the daily chart · and names describe what each tool does, not people's names.
Three candles in a row where the wick of the first does not meet the wick of the third. It means price crossed that range fast in one direction, and it often comes back to it later.
No. Each tool describes what happened in price using written rules, and each has limits that we list under it. The decision stays with you.
