CISD

Change in State of Delivery — identifies the precise price level where the market shifted its delivery direction.

Overview

Change in State of Delivery (CISD) identifies the precise price level where the market shifted from one delivery state to another. The pattern requires:

1. Same-directional candles
2. A liquidity sweep
3. A displacement candle closing through the original sequence's open price

The indicator marks institutional delivery transitions and generates CISD+ (bullish) or CISD- (bearish) labels on charts.

How We Use It

The CISD serves as the entry trigger in the Prophet Model workflow. When price retraces to the CISD level, it provides a precise, low-risk entry location with a defined stop positioned just beyond the CISD.
