Buyside & Sellside Liquidity

Buyside & Sellside Liquidity maps the resting-order geography at the heart of ICT trading: buy-side liquidity pooled above prior highs where short sellers' stops accumulate, and sell-side liquidity beneath prior lows where long stops rest. The indicator marks these levels, shades configurable zones around them, and detects liquidity voids — stretches price leapt through on large-bodied candles with minimal wicks, which tend to get filled eventually.

How to Trade the Buyside & Sellside Liquidity?

• Reversal at liquidity: price reaching a level often takes the resting orders and retreats toward the opposite extreme — the sweep-and-fade read.
• Continuation on breach: once a zone is decisively traded through, the market may keep running in the breakout's direction.
• Voids as magnets: bullish and bearish voids mark one-sided displacement, and a return to fill them is a common target idea.
• Alerts: notifications for new or adjusted levels and for breaches keep the map working while you are away.

These readings follow ICT concepts by Michael J. Huddleston, which do not always coincide with other methodologies — treat the levels as context feeding your own execution rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

What actually sits at these levels?

Concentrations of resting orders — the stops of short sellers above old highs and of longs below old lows. The indicator's job is making those pools visible in advance, so you can anticipate which one price is drawing toward instead of discovering it after the sweep.

What are liquidity voids?

Abrupt one-directional runs that leave a stretch of price barely traded, labeled bullish or bearish on the chart. If imbalances are your primary interest, Liquidity Voids (FVG) devotes an entire display to them, while this build keeps voids alongside the liquidity levels.
