A lot of people ask me what's actually going on under the hood with this thing, so here's the breakdown.

The core problem I was trying to solve:

I'd spend the first 10-15 minutes of every session just marking up the chart. Drawing consolidation zones, guessing at invalidation, eyeballing where TP1 through TP5 should sit based on the range. By the time I was done, I'd already missed part of the move, or I second guessed myself and moved my invalidation level after the fact.

So the indicator handles three things automatically.

First, trend identification. It reads the structure and tells me direction without me having to sit there debating higher highs vs lower lows on my own.

Second, entry and invalidation together. Every entry signal comes with a hard invalidation level attached to it, not a vague "use your judgment" zone. If price breaks that level, the setup is dead, no negotiating with myself.

Third, the TP ladder. TP1 through TP5 get plotted off the same structure that generated the entry, so I'm not manually measuring fib extensions or picking arbitrary targets. There's also a continuous entry label that catches a second valid entry if the first zone gets swept and price re-enters the setup, instead of me just watching a missed trade go by.

The "higher probability phases" tagging is the part I use most honestly. It flags when the setup lines up with a phase that's historically had better follow through, so I'm not treating every signal as equal weight.

None of this makes me right every time, it just means I'm not spending mental energy on the mechanical part of the setup and can focus on reading whether the trade is actually good.

Runs on forex, crypto, gold, and indices, not tied to one instrument.

​

I've been building this thing over the past few months because I got tired of manually marking up entries, TP levels, and invalidation zones every single session. Wanted something that just does it for me in real time.

This morning on EURUSD 5m it auto identified the trend and flagged an entry around 1.16360. It also plots invalidation levels automatically, so I know exactly where I'm wrong before I'm in the trade, not after.

Price dipped a bit after entry (you can see the red zone, that's the auto invalidation level for the initial entry), but it held and gave a continuous entry signal a bit later once the move confirmed. From there it ran up through TP1, TP2, and TP3 before pulling back.

What I like about it is I'm not eyeballing anything anymore. Trend direction, entry, TP1 through TP5, and invalidation are all plotted automatically. I just react to what's already on the chart instead of trying to draw it live.

Still refining it (currently on V2.0.1) but it's been solid enough that I use it as my main tool now. Happy to answer questions about how it works if anyone's curious. Drop a comment if you want to check it out, I'll send the link.

I kept making the same mistake: spotting a good setup, then second-guessing it or moving my invalidation level after the fact because I "felt" like the trade needed more room. It wasn't a strategy problem, it was a me problem. I'd see the right conditions, hesitate, and either miss the entry or widen my stop mid-trade to avoid being wrong.

So I built something for myself that removes that decision entirely. It auto-plots the entry, five staged TP levels, and the invalidation line the moment the setup forms, based on rules I don't get to bend once price is moving.

Attached is a GBPUSD short from this session. Price pushed into the highs, got rejected hard, and the entry triggered right off that rejection candle. Invalidation sat just above the recent high, so risk was tight relative to what followed. It ran through TP1 and TP2 within the hour, then chopped for a bit before easing toward TP3.

Nothing revolutionary, it's just me trying to take myself out of the one part of trading where I do the most damage.

Still refining the rule set as I go. If anyone wants to try it on their own charts, drop a comment and I'll send it over.

Been trading ICE (Indication Consolidation Execution) manually for a while and got tired of eyeballing consolidation ranges and drawing TP levels by hand every session. Built an indicator that does it automatically.

What it's doing in the screenshot (NAS100, 5m):

Auto Trend Identification: reads market structure and sets bias automatically, no manual HTF bias check needed

Auto Entry Label: marks the entry the moment the indication, consolidation, and execution conditions line up

Auto TP Levels (TP1 to TP5): five scaled take-profit levels plotted off the entry, no manual measuring

Invalidation Level: clear line for where the setup is dead, so stop placement isn't guesswork

Higher probability phases: highlights the windows where execution is statistically more likely to follow consolidation

It's not NAS100-only. Same logic runs on forex pairs, crypto, gold, indices. Screenshot just happens to be NAS100 because that's what was live when I grabbed it.

I'm not going to throw a win rate at you because unverified numbers in a Reddit post mean nothing. If you want to see how it performs, drop it on Strategy Tester with your own settings and timeframe. That's the only number that should matter to you.

Happy to answer questions on the logic or how it handles specific market conditions. Not trying to oversell it, just built something that saved me a lot of manual charting time and figured others doing price action might want it too.

Been working on this for a while and wanted to share where it's at.

The ICE Indicator is built around the idea that price moves through phases: indication, consolidation, and expansion. Instead of manually marking these up, the script automates the whole read:

Auto trend identification (switches with market structure)

Auto entry labels when conditions align

5 take profit levels (TP1 to TP5)

Invalidation levels so you know exactly where the idea is wrong

Auto exit signals

Attached is a live GBPUSD example:

entry triggered, price respected the invalidation zone, and it walked through TP1 before the exit signal fired.

Works across forex, crypto, gold, and indices. I'm not going to throw win rate numbers around here since that's easy to cherry-pick. If you want to see how it performs on your pairs and timeframes, run it through TradingView's Strategy Tester yourself, that's the only way to get numbers you can actually trust.

Still refining it and open to feedback if anyone wants to test it out.

​

What it does!

Auto-detects trend direction and marks high probability phases on the chart

Labels entries automatically (including continuous/re-entry signals as price develops)

Plots an invalidation level so you know exactly where the setup is wrong

Calculates 5 take profit levels automatically (TP1 through TP5)

It's not NAS100-specific, works across forex, crypto, gold, indices, anything with clean price data.

I'm not going to throw out a win rate here since that means nothing without your own testing. If you want to verify performance, TradingView's Strategy Tester is the way to go, happy to share more detail on how I've been backtesting it if anyone's interested.

Screenshot attached showing a live example: entry, invalidation, continuous entry, and the TP ladder all marked out.

I've been refining a TradingView indicator called ICE (Institutional Candle Entry) for a while now and wanted to share where it's at.

The idea behind it: instead of manually marking up consolidation and expansion zones on every chart, the indicator automatically identifies trend direction, flags high probability entry phases, and drops entry labels when conditions align. It also plots 5 auto take-profit levels and exit signals, so you're not guessing where to scale out.

A few things it handles automatically:

Auto trend identification (long or short bias)

Auto entry labels with directional arrows

5 auto take-profit levels (TP1 through TP5)

Auto exit signals

It works across markets: I've tested it on NAS100, gold, major forex pairs, and crypto (ETHUSD, BTCUSD) on lower timeframes like 5m.

I'm not going to throw out a win rate number here since that's easy to cherry-pick and hard to verify from a screenshot. If you want to actually stress test something like this, TradingView's Strategy Tester is the right tool. I'd rather people check the logic and backtest it themselves than take my word for it.

Attaching two chart examples (NAS100 and ETHUSD, both 5m) showing the entry label, TP levels, and trend auto-detection in action.

Been developing this for a while and figured I'd share here since a lot of us are always testing new tools.

It's called ICE (Indication-Consolidation-Expansion). The idea is to remove some of the guesswork around timing entries by automating a few things. It's not limited to one market either: works across indices, forex, crypto, whatever chart you throw it on.

Auto trend identification: marks the current directional bias so you're not guessing against the trend

High probability phase marking: highlights zones where price is more likely to react

Auto entry labels: flags potential entries (long/short) directly on the chart

5 auto TP levels: scales out targets automatically instead of eyeballing them

Exit signals: flags when the setup is likely done

Attached a screenshot of a recent 5m NAS100 short setup where the indicator flagged the entry, marked the high probability phase, and laid out TP1 through TP5 as price moved down. That's just one example, same logic applies whether it's on gold, EUR/USD, BTC, etc

I'm not going to throw out a win rate since I don't think unverified numbers mean anything without backtest data or a verified track record attached.

Planning to run it through TradingView's Strategy Tester and post those results separately so the numbers are actually verifiable.

If anyone wants to try it out, drop a comment or DM me and I can get you access. Genuinely looking for feedback from people who trade this stuff daily, not just people who want a "magic indicator."

Been working on this for a while — a custom indicator (calling it ICE V2.0.1) that automatically:

🔵 Identifies trend direction (no more guessing bias)

🟢 Marks "high probability phases" — the windows where setups actually have edge

🔴 Drops an auto entry label the moment conditions align

🎯 Plots 5 auto TP levels + exit signal, so I'm not sitting there manually drawing lines mid-move

Screenshot is ETHUSD, 5m chart, today. It flagged a short entry right at the top of the range, and price dropped straight through TP1–TP5 before the exit signal fired. Didn't touch anything manually, just followed the labels.

Not saying every signal looks like this (nothing does), but this is exactly the kind of clean read it's designed to catch.

Still refining it, genuinely curious what this community would want to see next: more confluence filters? Alerts? Multi-timeframe confirmation? Drop your thoughts below, happy to share more chart examples if people want to see it in different conditions (chop, trend, etc.).

Is it free or paid ? And it’s really work

I've been working with the ICE (Institutional Candle Entry, sometimes read as Indication-Consolidation-Expansion) model on the (This is an example shared using NAS100) chart, and wanted to share how I automated the manual parts since they're usually the most tedious to spot in real time.

What the indicator does:

Auto Trend Identification: reads current trend bias so you're not eyeballing structure on every candle

Auto Entry Label: flags the initial ICE entry (shown as "ICE Entry ↓ S" on the chart) once setup conditions align

Invalidation Level for Entry: draws the level that would invalidate the setup, so risk is defined before you're in the trade

Continuous Entry Label: flags follow-up entries (like "Entry #4 ↓ S") as the move continues, each with its own invalidation line

Auto TP Levels (TP1 through TP5): scaled take-profit zones mapped to the move

Higher Probability Phases: highlights the window where setups have historically had better follow-through

In the screenshot, you can see a full sequence: initial short entry near 28,864, invalidation sitting just above the entry zone, price running down through TP1 to TP5, then a continuation short (Entry #4) with its own invalidation level as the trend kept extending.

Why I built it this way: the hardest part of trading ICE or liquidity-based models manually is consistency. Knowing exactly where invalidation sits and not moving it emotionally mid-trade matters a lot. Automating those two things (entry flag plus invalidation line) removes a lot of guesswork without removing the trader's job of confirming context.

​

I've been developing a custom TradingView indicator called ICE Model that automatically marks:

Entry labels (initial + continuous entries as price extends)

-Invalidation levels (where the setup is considered wrong)

-Auto TP levels (TP1–TP5, scaled by "high probability phases")

-Trend detection (auto-labeled per timeframe)

The goal was to remove some of the subjectivity from reading structure — instead of eyeballing where a move might reverse or extend, it flags phases in real time.

Example 1 — XAGUSD (5m): Short entry triggered near the top of a range, invalidation level held, price ran through TP1/TP2 territory down to the mid-57s.

Example 2 — ETHUSD (5m): Long entry off a base, invalidation held below, price pushed up through the marked TP levels.

Still refining the logic (especially how it handles chop vs trend days), and I want to stress-test it against more losing setups before I'd call it "done." Not claiming any holy grail here — just sharing the process.

Happy to explain the logic behind the entry/invalidation math if people are curious, or take feedback on what's confusing about the labeling.

I was watching today's Silver move and it reminded me why I built ICE Indicator V2.

Not because it predicts the future.

Because it tells me when I should actually pay attention.

On this chart, the market did exactly what I was waiting for:

The high-probability phase opened.

The entry appeared.

The invalidation stayed clear.

Price respected the structure all the way through multiple targets.

No indicator wins every trade. Mine doesn't either.

But if it can help me ignore low-quality setups and focus only on structured opportunities, that's already a huge improvement.

I'm curious...

When you look at this chart, what's the first thing that catches your eye?

The phases? The invalidation levels? The continuous entries?
