HTF Power of Three°
Power of Three ( PO3 ) is one of the many concepts introduced by the Inner Circle Trader and inspired by Larry Williams.
The PO3 represents a three staged Smart Money campaign: Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution.
ICT traders assume that this pattern represents how any candle is built.
“This is applicable to every time measurement, as long as you have a beginning time, the highest value, the lowest value, and an ending in terms of measuring time.”
Consider the development of a Bullish Candle over Time:
– Candle Open (initial value price, prior to dynamic imbalance)
– Accumulation of longs around the opening price
– Manipulation where short liquidity is engineered and long liquidity is neutralized
– Range Expansion (dynamic price imbalance)
– Distribution pairing long exits with pending buy interest
– Candle Close (ending value price, post dynamic imbalance)
The same goes for the development of Bearish Candles, in reverse.
The HTF Power of Three° Indicator allows to monitor the selected Higher Timeframe Candle in real time:
– See where its Open, High, and Low are in the current lower resolution with high precision
– Know when it's supposed to Close by monitoring its own countdown (if below 1D)
– Note its Low to High range to gain a deeper understanding of LTF market profiles
– Study and backtest PO3 in Replay Mode with ease
– Trade PO3 with confidence without needing multiple layouts
This becomes very useful when studying, and especially using, PO3. One can use this as a tool to build narrative, as well as spotting important institutional levels.
You can also monitor more than one HTF PO3 at the time by stacking multiple instances of the indicator:
This works on any timeframe, even the seconds charts!
Note: if you select too high of a PO3 timeframe while on LTF you might receive an error due to TrandingView's data availability on that chart – this can also depend on your TradingView Plan.
