Market Structure Break Targets [UAlgo]The "Market Structure Break Targets " indicator is designed to identify and visualize key market structure points such as Market Structure Breaks (MSBs) and Break of Structures (BoS). These points are crucial for understanding market trends and potential reversal zones. By plotting these structures on the chart, traders can easily spot significant support and resistance levels, as well as potential entry and exit points.
This indicator uses a combination of swing highs and lows to determine market structures and calculates targets based on user-defined percentages or Average True Range (ATR) multipliers. It provides visual cues in the form of lines, labels, and boxes to help traders quickly interpret market conditions.
🔶 Key Features
Customizable Swing Length: Users can set the swing length to identify the pivot highs and lows, which are crucial for determining market structure.
Target Duration Bars: Defines the maximum duration (in bars) for which the targets will be considered valid.
Target Calculation Methods: The target levels are crucial for setting potential price objectives. The calculation can be based on a percentage move from the identified pivot or using the ATR to factor in market volatility. These targets help in setting realistic profit-taking levels or identifying stop-loss placements.
Bullish and Bearish Market Structure Break (MSB): Detects and highlights bullish and bearish market structure breaks with customizable colors and target percentages.
Bullish MSB
When the price closes above a significant pivot high, a bullish MSB is identified. The indicator will draw a line at this level and calculate a target based on the chosen method (percentage or ATR). The target is visualized with a dotted line, and a label "MSB" is displayed. Additionally, an order block is created at the level of the bullish MSB. This order block is highlighted with a semi-transparent box, representing a potential area where price might find support in the future.
Bearish MSB
Conversely, when the price closes below a significant pivot low, a bearish MSB is marked. Similar to bullish MSBs, targets are calculated and displayed on the chart. An order block is also generated at the level of the bearish MSB, visualized with a semi-transparent box. This box highlights a potential resistance area where price might face selling pressure.
Bullish and Bearish Break of Structure (BoS): Identifies break of structures for both bullish and bearish scenarios, providing additional target levels.
Bullish BoS
If the price continues to rise and breaks another significant level, a bullish BoS is detected. This break is also marked with lines and labels, providing additional target levels for traders. An order block is created at the BoS level, serving as a potential support zone.
Bearish BoS
If the price falls further after a bearish MSB, a bearish BoS is identified and visualized similarly. The indicator creates an order block at the BoS level, which acts as a potential resistance zone.

WMA Trend and Growth Rate IndicatorThe "WMA Trend and Growth Rate Indicator" is a powerful tool for analyzing market trends and momentum. By understanding its components and how to configure it, traders of all levels can leverage this indicator to enhance their trading strategies. Experiment with the settings and integrate it into your analysis to gain valuable insights into market movements.
Indicator Components
WMA Length : The length of the WMA. This controls how many periods are included in the calculation.
Start : The starting value for accumulation levels.
End : The ending value for accumulation levels.
Key Concepts
Weighted Moving Average (WMA): A type of moving average that gives more weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
Growth Rate : Measures how much the WMA has increased or decreased over a specified period, expressed as a percentage.
Accumulation and Distribution Levels : Zones where buying (accumulation) or selling (distribution) pressure is expected.
Configuring the Inputs
WMA Length : Adjust this value to change the sensitivity of the WMA. A smaller value makes the WMA more sensitive to recent price changes, while a larger value smooths out the data more.
Start and End : Adjust these values to define the range for accumulation and distribution levels. The indicator will automatically adjust the colors based on whether the Start value is higher or lower than the End value.
Interpreting the Plots
WMAT Line : The main trend line that shows the direction and strength of the trend.
Growth Index : Shows the growth rate of the WMAT.
Accumulation Levels : Indicated by lines and fill colors, showing potential zones to increase positions.
Distribution Levels : Indicated by lines and fill colors, showing potential zones to decrease positions.
The indicator checks if "Start" is greater than "End". Based on this check, it assigns colors to the accumulation and distribution levels. This color scheme helps traders visually distinguish between areas of potential buying and selling zones.
Higher Timeframe Open High Low ClosePURPOSE
1. Multi-timeframe analysis (MTFA).
2. Better visualize intraday price action relative higher timeframe price action, and this is not limited to the current time frame or the higher time frame including current price movement.
3. Higher Timeframes provides an overview of the long-term trend (e.g., weekly or monthly charts).
4. Confirm trends occurring on more than one timeframe.
5. Improve choice of entry and exit points.
ORIGINALITY
1. Compare current lower time frame price movement to current or previous higher time frame movement. The user specifies in the settings the higher time frame (day, week, month, quarter, or year) and the associated price movement data, including OHLC, average prices, and moving average levels.
2. Previous time frames and all specified levels (OHLC, average prices, and moving averages) can be shifted together to overlay the current time frame. This allows analysis of lower/intraday price movement against that of any past higher time frames.
3. Use: In the settings, the current time frame (i.e., that including current price movement) 'count from current' is '0', a count of '1' would shift one higher level time frame such that the open date of that shifted time frame aligns with the open date of the current time frame. A count of '3' would shift three higher level time frames to align with the current."
4. Example: On the Wednesday July 24 intraday chart, overlay the daily OHLC, typical price, and 10-day EMA data occurring at the close of Wednesday July 17. This allows analyze current price movement against data from one week prior.
HIGHER TIMEFRAME DATA that can be PLOTTED and SHIFTED
1. Open, High, Low, Close.
2. Average prices: Median (HL/2), Typical (HLC/3), (Average OHLC/4), Body Median (OC/2), Weighted Close (HL2C/4), Biased 01 (HC/2 if Close > Open, else LC/2), Biased 02 (High if Close > HL/2, else Low), Biased 03 (High if Close > Open, else Low).
3. Moving averages with user specified source, length and type.
DTFX Algo Zones [LuxAlgo]DTFX Algo Zones are auto-generated Fibonacci Retracements based on market structure shifts.
These retracement levels are intended to be used as support and resistance levels to look for price to bounce off of to confirm direction.
🔶 USAGE
Due to the retracement levels only being generated from identified market structure shifts, the retracements are confined to only draw from areas considered more important due to the technical Break of Structure (BOS) or Change of Character (CHoCH).
The simple action that causes a market structure shift occurs is price breaking above or below a specific swing point. When a market structure shift happens, a retracement is drawn from the point of break to the highest or lowest point since that point. Due to the price action necessary for a market structure shift, these retracements will not always be immediately actionable.
These retracement levels are intended to be used as points to watch for price to retrace to and bounce from, confirming the current direction of price.
In the example below, after the retracement is initiated, by bouncing off of the retracement levels formed from the previous market structure shift it would further confirm the bias of the market structure shift. A break going through these levels would display a weakness from the current market structure shift, implying that it could simply be noise.
🔶 DETAILS
The script uses standard SMC Market structure identification to determine Break of Structures (BOS) and Change of Characters (CHoCH). The specific swing points can be identified by the shapes placed above or below the specific swing high/low candle.
By unchecking the "Display All Zones" setting, users are able to specify the exact number of retracement zones to display using the "Show Last" parameter. This is handy for cleaning up the chart to stay focused on the most recent retracements.
Additionally, when displaying multiple zones, the "Clean-Up Level Overlap" setting may be helpful for decluttering as well. This option optimizes the display of retracement levels to minimize their overlap on other adjacent zones.
The script allows for up to 5 Fib levels to be displayed from each zone, with options for display, value, line style, and color for each of the 5.
The calculation for Fib Levels changes depending on the direction of market structure shifts. When an upwards (Bullish) zone is generated, the retracement is drawn with the bottom of the zone being 0 and the top of the zone being 1. This is reversed for downwards (Bearish) zones.
🔶 SETTINGS
Structure Length: Sets the SMC structure length to use for finding MMS.
Show Last: Displays this number of retracement zones. (Display All Zones Must be Unchecked)
Display All Zones: Ignores "Show Last" number and displays all historical MMS Retracement Zones.
Zone Display: Choose which zones to display, only bearish, only bullish, or both.
Clean-Up Level Overlap: Minimizes overlap between adjacent zones and levels.
Fib Levels: Settings to display and customize up to 5 Fib levels for each zone.
Previous Highs & Lows [LuxAlgo]The Previous Highs & Lows indicator highlights a user-set amount of previous maximum/minimum prices made within specific intervals, these are displayed as levels customizable levels.
Additionally, one upper and lower zone constructed from the previously displayed highs/lows is included, providing support/resistance areas.
🔶 USAGE
Previous highs/lows are often perceived as key trading levels with the potential of generating multiple reactions upon being reached.
While the daily interval is more commonly used, users can use different intervals, with the indicator supporting hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly intervals. Using higher intervals on low timeframes can return more distant levels relative to the most recent price, which might not be relevant.
Each level is numbered, with more recent previous highs/lows having a lower number associated with them, users can also highlight more recent levels through a transparency gradient.
Users can control the amount of previous highs/lows displayed using the "Show Last" settings, with a higher value providing more potential support/resistance. Returned previous highs/lows can eventually be filtered out based on their position by enabling the "Filter Based On Position" setting, only keeping previous highs above the current closing price and previous lows below the current closing price, giving more relevant levels as a result.
🔹 Previous High/Low Areas
The indicator includes two areas constructed from the respective percentiles of the returned previous highs/lows. These can be useful as more general support/resistance areas.
Wider areas are often indicative of a group of previous highs or lows being more dispersed, resulting in areas that are easier to reach. Wider areas can also be obtained by increasing the "Areas Width" setting.
Note: Areas will only be displayed if "Show Last" is greater than 1
🔶 SETTINGS
Show Last: Determines the amount of more recent previous highs and previous low levels displayed by the indicator.
Interval: Interval used to capture maximum/minimum price values,
Areas Width: Width of the displayed top/bottom areas, with higher values returning wider areas.
Filter Based On Position: When enabled only display previous highs above the current closing price and previous lows below the current closing price.
🔹 Style
Minimum Gradient Transparency: Minimum transparency value applied to the colors of the oldest displayed previous highs/lows levels.

Power Trends [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Power Trends Indicator is a versatile trading toolkit that offers unique insight into key price levels in the market. This script uses currently relevant price-action information to automatically detect pivot levels and use them to create powerful trendlines.
The aim of this script is to improve the trading experience of users by offering a versatile toolkit that can be used in a wide variety of trading strategies to help simplify the complexities of the market.
█ USAGE
The Power Trends Indicator will automatically identify pivot points in real-time using recent price-action information to ensure that all points being identified are relevant. Using these pivot points, the script then draws powerful trend lines that can be used as levels of resistance and support.
To ensure that only the most relevant information is being presented, only the most recent trend lines will be displayed on the user’s charts. As new trend lines are being drawn, older trend lines will become thinner so that traders can identify the most relevant lines at a glance.
The price of the most recent high and low pivot points will also be displayed on the chart and can be used as further levels of resistance and support.
When a recent pivot level is broken, it will be identified as a Break of Structure. This signifies that there may have been a change in market strength.
The Power Trends Indicator also supports multiple time frame mapping, allowing you to mirror the trend lines that would be drawn on higher time frame charts onto lower time frame charts. This feature allows traders to be aware of the market structure of multiple charts at a glance from a single chart.
When mirroring some higher time frame trend lines, lines may appear to not align properly with current time frame bars. This is done intentionally to ensure lines are being drawn accurately to their position on the higher time frame charts.

ICT Market Structure Screener (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The ICT Market Structure Screener (Zeiierman) is designed to identify and display key market structure levels and patterns based on Smart Money Concepts. It highlights bullish and bearish structures, premium and discount levels, and generates alerts for significant market structure changes, making it a valuable tool for traders looking to understand institutional trading behaviors and market trends. A key feature of this indicator is its screener function, which allows traders to monitor multiple symbols simultaneously. This feature provides a consolidated view of the market structure for various assets, making it easier to identify trading opportunities across a diverse portfolio.
█ How It Works
The ICT Market Structure Screener operates by identifying high and low pivot points within a specified period, then analyzing these pivots to determine changes in market structure. The indicator tracks price movements and categorizes them into bullish or bearish structures, indicating potential trend reversals or continuations. By plotting premium and discount levels, it helps traders identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator also provides real-time updates and alerts for significant changes in the market structure.
█ Terminology
ChoCH (Change of Character): Indicates a potential reversal in market direction. It is identified when the price breaks a significant high or low, suggesting a shift from a bullish to bearish trend or vice versa.
SMS (Smart Money Shift): Represents the transition phase in market structure where smart money begins accumulating or distributing assets. It typically follows a BMS and indicates the start of a new trend.
BMS (Bullish/Bearish Market Structure): Confirms the trend direction. Bullish Market Structure (BMS) confirms an uptrend, while Bearish Market Structure (BMS) confirms a downtrend. It is characterized by a series of higher highs and higher lows (bullish) or lower highs and lower lows (bearish).
Premium: A zone where the price is considered overbought. It is calculated as the upper range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for selling or shorting.
Mid Range: The midpoint between the high and low of the market structure. It often acts as a support or resistance level, helping traders identify potential reversal or continuation points.
Discount: A zone where the price is considered oversold. It is calculated as the lower range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for buying or going long.
█ How to Use
The ICT Market Structure Screener allows traders to follow smart money moves in the market more effectively. By identifying key market levels and monitoring bullish and bearish structures, traders can easily spot trend changes and strong trends. The indicator's premium and discount levels help identify overbought and oversold conditions, providing valuable entry and exit points. Alerts for ChoCH, SMS, and BMS keep traders informed about significant market changes, enabling real-time adjustments to trading strategies.
The screener functionality is particularly valuable for monitoring multiple markets simultaneously. The screener table displays critical information such as current price, trend direction, signal type, and premium/discount levels for each symbol. This makes it easier to track the market structure of various assets at a glance and quickly identify trading opportunities across different markets.
Example Strategies:
⚪ Trend Following: Use the indicator to identify the current market trend (bullish or bearish) and trade in the direction of the trend. Enter trades on pullbacks to premium (for shorts) or discount (for longs) levels.
⚪ Reversal Trading: Look for ChoCH signals to identify potential trend reversals. Enter trades when the price breaks a significant high or low and confirms a change in market structure, or wait for a retest of the nearest Orderblock that was formed.
⚪ Support and Resistance: Utilize the mid-range, premium, and discount levels as support and resistance zones. Enter trades when the price approaches these levels and shows signs of reversal or continuation.
⚪ Multi-Symbol Analysis: Use the screener table to monitor multiple symbols and quickly assess their market structure. This helps in diversifying trading opportunities and managing a portfolio of assets efficiently.
█ Settings
Period: The pivot period for calculating the structure. Increasing the period captures broader trends, making the structure more representative of long-term movements. Decreasing the period focuses on shorter-term trends, increasing sensitivity.
Response: Enabling this option uses the response period instead of the pivot period, providing more flexibility in capturing short-term or long-term structures. The period for the response, which determines the structure's sensitivity. Increasing the response period smoothens the structure, making it less reactive to short-term fluctuations. Decreasing the response period makes the structure more responsive to short-term changes.
Structure Display: Choose between displaying the active range or the previous range. 'Active Range' shows real-time premium, discount, and mid-range levels based on the current structure. 'Previous Range' displays past ranges, useful for analyzing historical support/resistance levels.
Ticker Symbols: List of symbols to include in the screener. Enabling the option includes the symbol in the screener, allowing the user to track its structure. Disabling it excludes the symbol from the screener, reducing the number of tracked symbols.

Pure Price Action Structures [LuxAlgo]The Pure Price Action Structures indicator is a pure price action analysis tool designed to automatically identify real-time market structures.
The indicator identifies short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term swing highs and lows, forming the foundation for real-time detection of shifts and breaks in market structure.
Its distinctive/unique feature lies in its reliance solely on price patterns, without being limited by any user-defined input, ensuring a robust and objective analysis of market dynamics.
🔶 USAGE
Market structure is a crucial aspect of understanding price action. The script automatically identifies real-time market structure, enabling traders to comprehend market trends more easily. It assists traders in recognizing both trend changes and continuations.
Market structures are constructed from three sets of swing points, short-term swings, intermediary swings, and long-term swings. Market structures associated with longer-term swing points are indicative of longer-term trends.
A market structure shift (MSS), also known as a change of character (CHoCH), is a significant event in price action analysis that may signal a potential shift in market sentiment or direction. Conversely, a break of structure (BOS) is another significant event in price action analysis that typically indicates a continuation of the prevailing trend.
However, it's important to note that while an MSS can be the first indication of a trend reversal and a BOS signifies a continuation of the prevailing trend, they do not guarantee a complete reversal or continuation of the trend.
In some cases, MSS and BOS levels may also act as liquidity zones or areas of price consolidation, rather than indicating a definitive change in market direction or continuation. Traders should approach them with caution and consider additional factors to confirm the validity of the signal before making trading decisions.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Market Structures
Market structures are based on the analysis of price action and aim to identify key levels and patterns in the market, where swing point detection is one of the core concepts within ICT trading methodologies and teachings.
Swing points are automatically detected solely based on market movements, without any reliance on user-defined input.
🔹 Utilizing Swing Points
Swing points are not identified in real time as they occur. While short-term swing points may be displayed with a delay of at most one bar, the identification of intermediate and long-term swing points depends entirely on market movements. Furthermore, detection is not limited by any user-defined input but relies solely on pure price action. Consequently, swing points are not typically utilized in real-time trading scenarios.
Traders often analyze historical swing points to discern market trends and pinpoint potential entry and exit points for their trades. By identifying swing highs and lows, traders can:
Recognize Trends: Swing highs and lows help traders identify the direction of the trend. Higher swing highs and higher swing lows indicate an uptrend, while lower swing highs and lower swing lows indicate a downtrend.
Identify Support and Resistance Levels: Swing highs often serve as resistance levels, known in ICT terminology as Buyside Liquidity Levels, while swing lows function as support levels, also referred to in ICT terminology as Sellside Liquidity Levels. Traders can utilize these levels to strategize entry and exit points for their trades.
Spot Reversal Patterns: Swing points can form various reversal patterns, such as double tops or bottoms, head and shoulders patterns, and triangles. Recognizing these patterns can signal potential trend reversals, allowing traders to adjust their strategies accordingly.
Set Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels: In the context of ICT teachings, swing levels represent specific price levels where a concentration of buy or sell orders is anticipated. Traders can target these liquidity levels/pools to accumulate or distribute their positions, essentially using swing points to establish stop loss and take profit levels for their trades.
Overall, swing points provide valuable information about market dynamics and can assist traders in making more informed trading decisions.

Inversion Fair Value Gaps [TradingFinder] IFVG ICT Signal| Alert🔵 Introduction
🟣 Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG)
An ICT Inversion Fair Value Gap, or reverse FVG, occurs when a fair value gap fails to hold its price, resulting in the price moving beyond and breaking the gap. This situation marks the initial change in price momentum.
Generally, prices respect fair value gaps and continue in their trend direction. However, when a fair value gap is breached, it transforms into an inversion fair value gap, signaling a potential short-term reversal or a subsequent change in direction.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Identifying an Inversion Fair Value Gap
To spot an IFVG, you must first identify a fair value gap.
Inversion fair value gaps can be categorized into two types :
🟣 Bullish Inversion Fair Value Gap
A bullish IFVG occurs when a bearish fair value gap is invalidated by the price closing above it.
Steps to identify it :
Identify a bearish fair value gap.
When the price closes above this gap, it becomes a bullish inversion fair value gap.
This gap acts as a support level, pushing the price upwards and indicating a shift in momentum from sellers to buyers.
🟣 Bearish Inversion Fair Value Gap
A bearish IFVG happens when a bullish fair value gap fails, with the price closing below it.
Steps to identify it :
Identify a bullish fair value gap.
When the price closes below this gap, it becomes a bearish inversion fair value gap.
This gap acts as a resistance level, pushing the price downwards and indicating a shift in momentum from buyers to sellers.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Global Settings
Show All Inversion FVG: If disabled, only the most recent FVG will be displayed.
IFVG Validity Period (Bar): Determines the maximum duration (in number of candles) that the FVG and IFVG remain valid.Switching Colors Theme Mode: Includes three modes: "Off", "Light", and "Dark". "Light" mode adjusts colors for light mode use, "Dark" mode adjusts colors for dark mode use, and "Off" disables color adjustments.
🟣 Logic Settings
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter : Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filte r: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter : Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter : Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
Mitigation Level FVG and IFVG : Options include "Proximal", "Distal", or "50 % OB" modes, which you can choose based on your needs. The "50 % OB" line is the midpoint between distal and proximal.

GL Gann Swing IndicatorIntroduction
The GL Gann Swing Indicator is a versatile tool designed to help traders identify market trends, support and resistance areas, and potential reversals. This indicator applies the principles of Gann Swing Charts, a technique developed by W.D. Gann, which focuses on market swings to determine the overall direction and turning points of price action. Gann Swing Charts are a time-tested method of technical analysis that simplifies price action by focusing on significant highs and lows, thereby eliminating market noise and providing a clearer view of the trend.
By analyzing price action and determining swing directions and turning points, the indicator filters out market noise using four distinct bar types:
Up Bar: Higher High, Higher Low
Down Bar: Lower High, Lower Low
Inside Bar: Lower High, Higher Low
Outside Bar: Higher High, Lower Low
This approach helps traders to:
Identify the primary trend direction.
Determine key support and resistance levels.
Recognize potential reversal points.
Filter out minor price fluctuations that do not affect the overall trend.
Features
Bar Types: Display bar types by checking the Show Bar Type box in the indicator's settings. Up bars appear as green upward-pointing triangles, down bars as red downward-pointing triangles, inside bars as grey circles, and outside bars as blue diamonds. These visual aids help traders quickly identify the type of bar and its significance.
Break Lines: These lines highlight when the price rises above a previous swing high or falls below a prior swing low. Green lines indicate breaks of swing highs, while red lines indicate breaks of swing lows. Break lines are enabled by default but can be turned off in the indicator's settings. Break lines provide visual confirmation of trend continuation or reversal.
Bar Count: Bar counts help determine if a swing is overextended and if a reversal is likely. This feature is off by default but can be enabled in the indicator's settings. Users can set a minimum bar count to focus on significant swings. Analyzing the number of bars in a swing can help traders gauge the strength and potential exhaustion of a trend.
Swing MA (Moving Averages): This feature plots the average of a user-defined number of previous swing highs and lows. Options are available to add two moving averages, allowing for both fast and slow averages. Swing MAs can be enabled in the indicator's settings. These moving averages smooth out the price data, making it easier to identify the underlying trend direction.
Why This Indicator is Useful
The GL Gann Swing Indicator is particularly useful for several reasons:
Trend Identification: By focusing on significant price swings, the indicator helps traders identify the primary trend direction, making it easier to align trades with the overall market movement.
Noise Reduction: The indicator filters out minor price fluctuations, allowing traders to focus on meaningful market movements and avoid being misled by short-term volatility.
Support and Resistance Levels: By highlighting key swing highs and lows, the indicator helps traders identify crucial support and resistance levels, which are essential for making informed trading decisions.
Potential Reversals: The indicator's ability to identify overextended swings and potential reversal points can help traders anticipate market turning points and adjust their strategies accordingly.
Customizability: With options to display bar types, break lines, bar counts, and swing moving averages, traders can customize the indicator to suit their specific trading style and preferences.
By incorporating Gann Swing principles, the GL Gann Swing Indicator offers traders a powerful tool to enhance their technical analysis, improve their trading decisions, and ultimately achieve better trading outcomes.
Heiken Ashi Ribbon [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Heiken Ashi Ribbon is a powerful trading tool that creates a strong ribbon that indicates market strength. This ribbon is created using four moving averages that use Heiken Ashi values (high, low, open and close) as its input values.
The ribbon will also be colored green, red or grey depending on whether or not its direction aligns with current market strength.
█ USAGE
The Heiken Ashi Ribbon is created using a series of four moving averages that uses values from the Heiken Ashi bars as its inputs. The user has the ability to select whether the moving averages are EMAs or SMAs, as well as the ability to control the period of the moving averages.
If the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open is below the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Close, the ribbon will be colored green, indicating a bullish trend. If the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open is above the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open, the ribbon will be colored red, indicating a bearish trend.
This indicator also uses a series of hidden EMAs to determine market strength. If these EMAs do not align with the direction of the Heiken Ashi Ribbon, the Ribbon will instead be colored grey, indicating uncertainty in the market, as well as a possible reversal.
█ SETTINGS
Configuration
• Moving Average Type: Determines whether or not the Heiken Ashi Moving Averages will be drawn as EMAs or SMAs.
• Moving Average Period: Determines the period of the Heiken Ashi Moving Averages.
Moving Average
• Moving Average Input: Determines the input values for the hidden EMAs.
Candle Body Support/Resistance [LuxAlgo]The Candle Body Support/Resistance indicator is a tool that provides Support/Resistance levels from high-volatility candles, a concept originally described by Steve Nison in "Beyond Candlesticks".
Users can define the candle body percentage used to set the detected support/resistance levels. Occurrences of price testing the returned levels are highlighted using user-customizable dots.
🔶 USAGE
Support/Resistance levels are drawn from volatile candles, that is candles having a body (range between opening and closing price) whose magnitude is larger than the Volatility Threshold , which is determined by the multiplicative factor of an ATR (Average True Range) using a user set length.
The level starts from the opening price +/- a percentage of the open-close range. Users can adjust the percentage of the candle body used as support/resistance levels respectively, with higher percentage values returning levels prone to get reached sooner by the price.
A test is considered valid when a wick passes through the Support/Resistance level while the closing price is not breaking it.
Two modes are included, Trailing and Historical , both affecting the displayed elements of the indicator, these are described in the sub-section below.
🔹 Historical
The Historical Mode will draw a separate line from every Volatile Candle . When this line is tested, a dot will be drawn.
In the above example, the red resistance line was tested once until a bullish volatile candle formed, which closed just below the resistance level. The resistance level was tested again, after which the newly created support level was broken quickly, and the price decreased. These levels proved helpful later, acting as resistance/support levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
To prevent cluttering Support/Resistance , lines will be deleted when the line is mitigated and hasn't been tested.
When a Support/Resistance line reaches its Maximum Line Length , it will also be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔹 Trailing
When a new volatile candle of the same type (bullish/bearish) appears while the Support/Resistance isn't broken, this line will be updated with the values of the new volatile candle. This creates a trailing line and a less cluttered chart.
Unlike the Historical mode , a line will not be deleted after a while or when it is mitigated. Instead, the line won't be updated anymore. A new line will start from the next found volatile candle.
Using the same situation as the Historical Mode example, we can note the future significance of old support/resistance levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
The user can switch between these 2 modes, each offering a unique perspective on the market. This provides a more in-depth examination of the market, enhancing the user's trading analysis.
Using a copy of our indicator while using both modes can also be helpful.
🔶 DETAILS
The Support level is the opening price of a bullish volatile candle plus a user-set percentage of the candle's body, while the Resistance level is the opening price of a bearish volatile candle minus a percentage of the candle's body.
The following example illustrates the ATR with the multiplicative factor (Volatility Threshold) where the body of Volatile candles exceeds the ATR limits. Changing the Volatility Threshold and ATR length gives users extra flexibility to adjust to their needs.
🔹 Max Line Length
When using the Historical Mode and the duration of a displayed level reaches the user-set Max Line Length value, the level will return to the last test or be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Mode: Display mode of the indicator.
Support %: Sets the distance of the Support Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
Resistance %: Sets the distance of the Resistance Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
🔹 Filter
Length ATR: Amount of bars for the calculation of the Average True Range.
Volatility Threshold: multiplicative factor of ATR.
Max Line Length: Maximum allowed duration/length (in bars) of a Support/Resistance level.
Spiral Levels [ChartPrime]SPIRAL LEVELS
⯁ OVERVIEW
The Spiral Levels [ ChartPrime ] indicator, designed for use on TradingView and developed with Pine Script™ , leveraging a combination of traditional pivot points and spiral geometry to visualize support and resistance levels on the chart. By plotting spirals from pivot points, the indicator provides a distinctive perspective on potential price movements.
It's an experiment inspired from spirals in the Pine documentation and the concept of using spirals to add padding/offsets to SR zones in a market (an idea we plan to expand on in the future).
◆ USAGE
● Identifying Pivot Points: The indicator identifies significant pivot highs and lows based on user-defined criteria.
● Filtered Pivot Points: Pivot points for spirals are filtered using volume and high/low thresholds to ensure they are significant.
● Spiral Visualization: Spirals are plotted from these pivots, indicating potential future support and resistance levels or as liquidity zones.
Additionally, the plotted levels can serve as liquidity zones where the price might attempt to grab liquidity, providing a deeper understanding of market behavior at significant volume levels.
● Volume-Based Coloring: Spirals are colored based on volume data, providing additional context about the strength of the price movement.
● Labeling and Line Extensions: Labels display volume information, and lines extend from the end of the spirals to the current bar for clarity.
● Spiral Rotation: By adjusting the "Number of spiral rotations" input, you can control the number of rotations each spiral makes around a pivot point, offering more detailed insights. This also allows you to control the distance of levels from a pivot. More rotations will extend the spiral further from the pivot point, potentially identifying support and resistance levels or liquidity zones at greater distances.
This modification emphasizes that the number of rotations not only provides more detailed insights but also affects the spatial distribution of the identified levels relative to the pivot point.
⯁ USER INPUTS
● Pivots
Left Bars: Determines the number of bars to the left of the pivot.
Right Bars: Determines the number of bars to the right of the pivot.
● Filter
Volume Filter: Sets the threshold for volume filtering.
High & Low Filter: Sets the threshold for filtering pivot highs and lows.
● Spiral
Spirals Shown: Specifies the number of spirals to be displayed on the chart.
Number of spiral rotations: Sets the number of rotations for each spiral.
X Scale: Adjusts the horizontal scale of the spirals.
Y Scale: Adjusts the vertical scale of the spirals, relative to the ATR(200).
Reverse Spirals: Option to reverse the direction of the spirals.
⯁ TECHNICAL NOTES
The indicator uses Pine Script's polyline feature for smooth spiral rendering.
It implements a custom cross detection function to manage line and label visibility.
The script is optimized to limit calculations to the last 1000 bars for performance.
It automatically manages the number of displayed elements to prevent clutter and ensure smooth performance.
The Spiral Levels ChartPrime indicator offers a unique and visually engaging method to identify potential support and resistance levels. By integrating volume data and pivot points with spiral geometry, traders can gain valuable insights into market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
Lines of Chaos (ATR/ADR Levels)Lines of Chaos Indicator
This script is designed to provide traders with ATR (Average True Range) and ADR (Average Daily Range) support and resistance levels.
How it Works:
Support and Resistance Lines: The script plots ATR/ADR-based support and resistance lines based on a moving average of the last ATR/ADR Length days, the previous day's close, and the current day's open. Changing the ATR/ADR Length value changes the number of days of data to average.
EMA: The EMA is colored red when the ticker is potentially bearish. The EMA is colored green when the ticker is potentially bullish. Changing the EMA Length changes the number of data bars to average.
Default Settings: The default settings are optimized for most trading environments.
Key Features:
ATR & ADR Calculation: You can use ATR, ADR, or both. ATR is recommended for most scenarios.
Customizable Lengths: Adjust the ATR/ADR Length to refine the average calculation to your preference, with 14 being the standard value.
EMA for Market Bias: The EMA helps determine the ticker bias. It is colored green when the market is above the average price and red when below. This allows you to more easily determine whether or not the ADR/ATR levels are valid.
Versatile Usage: Suitable for various trading types, ensuring broad applicability across different market conditions.
How to Use:
Bounces off Levels: When the price bounces off a support/resistance level, the price will likely respect this level. This indicates that the price is unlikely to exceed the ticker's average volatility.
Breakthroughs of Levels: When the price breaks through a support/resistance level, the price will likely continue beyond this level. This indicates that the price has moved beyond that ticker's average volatility.
