Understanding the Son Model ICT Indicator
The Son Model ICT Indicator identifies liquidity accumulation zones, waits for a structural shift in the market, and then confirms a valid fair value gap (FVG). If price retraces into this zone, traders may consider entering trades aligned with the market direction.

1. Liquidity Signal – Recognizes liquidity buildup in the market.
2. Market Structure Shift (MSS) – Confirms a structural change in price action.
3. Fair Value Gap (FVG) – Marks imbalance zones for potential trade entries.

Bullish Trend Example
On the USD/JPY 5-minute chart, the Son Model ICT Indicator detected liquidity accumulation on the 5-hour timeframe. After confirming a market structure shift (MSS), price revisited the FVG zone with a shadow and then extended its bullish trend.

1. Liquidity Accumulation – Identified at higher timeframe levels.
2. Market Structure Shift – Signals the start of bullish pressure.
3. FVG Confirmation – Price retests the imbalance before trending upward.

Bearish Trend Example
On the EUR/USD 5-minute chart, liquidity levels were identified on the 1-hour timeframe. After building liquidity, price shifted downward. Following the MSS confirmation, the market retraced to the fair value gap (FVG) zone and continued declining.

1. Liquidity Levels – Highlighted before the downward move.
2. MSS Confirmation – Market signals bearish direction.
3. FVG Retest – Price returns to the imbalance range before falling further.
