Free · TradingView · NQ & Gold

Free indicators

Free on any TradingView plan, in two groups: Atlas statistics indicators for NQ and gold futures, which show how often the market has historically done something from the position it is in now, and other tools for manual execution, such as ICT fair value gaps and swing points. They give context for your own decisions; they are not signals.

Atlas indicators

Measured session statistics, one build per market. The Nasdaq tables come from 17 years of NQ 1-minute data and the gold tables from 11 years of gold, each measured on its own market rather than carried across.

Atlas IB

The Initial Balance, in context

Draws the Initial Balance of any 30- or 60-minute window and labels the extension rails with how often each side was reached first, or neither, before the session closed. Guides: NQ · gold.

Atlas Sessions

Previous-session levels, with base rates

Plots the previous session's high and low and shows how often comparable sessions took the high only, the low only, both, or stayed inside. Guides: NQ · gold.

The record

From August to September 2026 we published, every week, what each Atlas indicator showed and what price did next: the calls that worked, the ones that did not, and the sessions it declined to call. Each set of tables was measured on history ending before the first week reviewed, so every session in the record is out of sample. The record continues monthly.

Why Atlas is free

Atlas began as a paid subscription. Session and Initial Balance tools are now easy to find for free, and our paid work has moved to automated strategies, so Atlas is free for anyone to use. We still maintain the indicators and the record.

If you would rather have fixed rules applied for you, our strategies run automatically on TradingView. They are separate, paid products.

Other free indicators

Tools built for manual execution, published free on TradingView for anyone to use. They are based on publicly taught ICT concepts; we are not affiliated with ICT.

Free

ICT Fair Value Gaps (multi-timeframe)

Fair value gaps built to ICT's 3-candle definition, including volume imbalances, on 18 timeframes from 1-minute to 12-month, 2-hour included. It projects higher-timeframe gaps onto a lower-timeframe chart, tracks mitigation and filters out gaps made by session closes. To keep the chart clear, a proximity filter can show only the nearest gap above and below price on each timeframe.

Free

ICT Swing Points

Swing highs and lows classified across six tiers, from basic swings up to long-term and beyond, re-evaluated live so market structure reads at a glance.

Questions

Are they really free?

Yes. They are public scripts on TradingView, free on any plan, with no sign-up on this site. The Atlas source code is protected because the measured tables are the work; you can use every feature without it.

How do I add one?

Use the buttons on this page, or on TradingView open Indicators and search by name. For Atlas, search for Atlas and pick the public build for your market: NQ for NQ / MNQ, GC for GC / MGC. Older invite-only Atlas listings are retired and no longer updated.

Do they give buy or sell signals?

No. Atlas shows historical frequencies: how often comparable situations resolved a certain way in past data. They are context for your own decisions, not signals, and past frequencies do not predict future results. The other free indicators mark price structure, such as fair value gaps and swing points, for you to read yourself.

What do I need on TradingView?

An account on any plan, including the free one, and a chart of the market the build is for. On a free plan, use Atlas Sessions on a 3-minute or 5-minute chart: it needs five days of chart history, and a free plan loads about three and a half days of 1-minute bars. Atlas IB works on any plan at any timeframe that divides 30 minutes.

Which markets do the statistics cover?

Two markets, measured separately. The Nasdaq numbers come from CME NQ futures and apply to MNQ. The gold numbers come from COMEX GC futures and apply to MGC. Gold keeps different hours and turns on a different clock, so its sessions, distances and tables were derived from gold's own history rather than transferred.

What happens at a futures contract roll?

On the session where the continuous chart rolls to the next contract, Atlas Sessions shifts the previous session's levels into the new contract's prices and greys that session out. A roll does not stretch Atlas IB's target distances; on the roll day, its optional NQ overnight-gap and prior-day-high adjustments and any previous-IB levels extended to the current bar can still show the gap. If your chart was open across a roll, reload it once.

I used Atlas before. Do I need to do anything?
