ICT Daily Wick Quadrants - Advanced Fibonacci Level Indicator
Overview
The ICT Daily Wick Quadrants indicator is a professional-grade TradingView tool designed for traders following the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. It automatically calculates and displays precise Fibonacci retracement levels within the daily candle wicks, providing key intraday support and resistance zones that price frequently reacts to during trading sessions.

This indicator identifies premium and discount zones within both upper and lower daily wicks, offering traders critical reference points for entries, exits, and stop-loss placement based on institutional order flow concepts.

Key Features

Custom Time Mode: Fully customizable day opening/closing hours and minutes for any trading session (London, Tokyo, Sydney, etc.)

Perfect for traders in different time zones or following specific market sessions

📊 Five Customizable Fibonacci Levels
Level 0% (Base): Wick origin at body extremity

Level 25%: First quartile - common liquidity zone

Level 50%: Equilibrium - strongest reaction level

Level 75%: Third quartile - institutional entry zone
