Market Structure MTF Trend [Pt]█ Author's Notes
There are numerous market structure indicators in the TradingView library, each offering a unique approach to identifying price action shifts. Market Structure MTF Trend was created with simplicity and flexibility in mind—providing a highly customizable multi-timeframe setup, visually clear trendlines, and straightforward labeling. This combination helps both new and experienced traders easily spot and interpret market structure changes.
█ Overview
Market Structure MTF Trend is a powerful yet user-friendly indicator designed to identify and visualize key turning points in price action. It focuses on two core concepts:
Change of Character (CHoCH): A momentary shift in the market’s behavior, signaling that the current price movement may be losing momentum and could soon reverse.
Break of Structure (BoS): A more definitive event confirming a new price pattern, where the market establishes a fresh trend direction by surpassing previous swing highs or lows.
By combining these signals across up to four different timeframes, even traders unfamiliar with market structure can quickly learn to spot and validate potential trend reversals or continuations.
█ Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Monitors CHoCH and BoS events simultaneously on multiple intervals (e.g., 15m, 30m, 60m, 240m), providing a clear, layered understanding of market dynamics.
Straightforward Visual Cues: Labels are placed directly on the chart at swing highs and lows, while colored bars at the bottom give an instant snapshot of whether each timeframe is bullish or bearish.
Configurable Timeframes & Pivot Strength: Easily set up the desired intervals and adjust pivot strength to tune how sensitive the indicator is to minor price fluctuations.
Color-Coded Signals: Different colors help you distinguish between potential early reversals (CHoCH) and confirmed shifts (BoS), ensuring each signal’s importance is immediately clear.
█ Usage & Benefits
Learn Market Structure Basics: For those new to swing highs/lows, CHoCH, and BoS, the script’s on-chart labels and dynamic bar coloring provide a practical, visual way to grasp these concepts.
Spot Reversals Early: CHoCH alerts you to possible shifts in momentum, allowing you to anticipate trend changes before they fully develop.
Confirm Trend Breaks: BoS events confirm that the market has established a new directional bias, reinforcing higher‐probability entry or exit points.
Reduce Noise & Stay Focused: The multi-timeframe setup ensures you won’t overlook larger trends or get lost in smaller fluctuations.
Streamline Decision-Making: Color-coded bars let you gauge overall market sentiment at a glance—ideal for quickly validating trades without juggling multiple charts.
Market Structure MTF Trend is perfect for traders who want to learn or refine their understanding of price action. By integrating multiple timeframes into a single, cohesive interface, this tool highlights both subtle shifts and confirmed breaks in market structure, empowering you to trade with greater insight and confidence.

SuperTrend'ed Fibos - DolphinTradeBot
Overwiev
This indicator aims to assist in taking trades at relatively low price levels in the direction of the main trend and capturing profits at potential reversal points.
What is it for !
The indicator simply performs its calculations by using two multitimeframe SuperTrend indicators, Fibonacci levels, and pivot points. The reason for using MTF in both SuperTrend indicators is that the lengths of the levels are relatively limited, so it allows for a more detailed analysis on lower timeframes.
How is it work
When both the HTF SuperTrend and the main SuperTrend indicators are in the same direction,
For Uptrend:
Once the main SuperTrend line is violated it barcolor and draws the basic Fibonacci levels between the pivot high point and the SuperTrend line within the trend region . The TakeProfit level is drawn at a distance multiplied by the TakeProfit Multiplier, between the lowest and highest points of the level. When the main trend reverses or the TakeProfit level is violated, it stops drawing.
For Downtrend:
Once the main SuperTrend line is violated it barcolor and draws the basic Fibonacci levels between the pivot low point and the SuperTrend line within the trend region . The TakeProfit level is drawn at a distance multiplied by the TakeProfit Multiplier, between the lowest and highest points of the level. When the main trend reverses or the TakeProfit level is violated, it stops drawing.
How to Use:
To prevent the line thickness from being displayed on the screen, the indicator shows the direction of the HTF SuperTrend indicator by coloring the background. In the settings section, you can adjust:
TakeProfit Multiplier
Fibonacci line colors
HTF SuperTrend activation
HTF SuperTrend settings
Main SuperTrend settings
Fibonacci levels
Custom alert activation
Custom alert level
Alarm Section
By default, the indicator gives an alert when a level is formed or violated. Additionally, if you want to set an alert for a specific level, you can activate the Custom Alert option and choose your desired level.
ICT Dealing RangeICT Dealing Range
This indicator identifies and plots ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Dealing Ranges - key institutional areas where smart money accumulates or distributes positions before significant moves.
What is a Dealing Range?
A Dealing Range is a significant price area where institutional traders accumulate or distribute their positions. These ranges form through a specific sequence of price movements that indicate institutional order flow:
Bullish Dealing Range Sequence:
1. Initial High (H)
2. Initial Low (L)
3. Higher High (HH)
4. Lower Low (LL)
5. Break above HH (confirmation)
Bearish Dealing Range Sequence:
1. Initial Low (L)
2. Initial High (H)
3. Lower Low (LL)
4. Higher High (HH)
5. Break below LL (confirmation)
My Trading Strategy
Entry Methods:
1. Range Extreme Retests:
- After range formation, wait for price to return to either extreme
- Long entries at range bottom with stops below
- Short entries at range top with stops above
2. Mid-Line Strategy:
- Use the mid-line as a pivot point for reversals
- Long entries on mid-line bounce with stops below
- Short entries on mid-line rejection with stops above
Stop Loss Placement:
- When entering at extremes: Place stops beyond the mid
- When entering at mid-line: Place stops beyond the opposing extreme
- Always respect the structure's boundaries
Take Profit Targets:
- Minimum 2:1 Risk-Reward ratio
- For extreme entries: Target the opposite extreme
- For mid-line entries: Target the nearest extreme
Risk Management
- Never enter without a clear invalidation point
- Maintain minimum 2:1 RR ratio
- Consider market structure and higher timeframe context
Indicator Features
- Auto-detection of dealing range patterns
- Color-coded boxes (green for bullish, red for bearish)
- Optional mid-line display
- Customizable colors and styles
- Adjustable pivot lookback periods
Notes
This tool is based on ICT concepts but should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis. The dealing range provides a framework for understanding institutional order flow, but proper risk management and market context are essential for successful trading.
Remember: The best trades often come from clean retests of these ranges after their initial formation. Patience in waiting for proper setups is key to successful implementation.
Central Bank Liquidity YOY % Change - Second DerivativeThis indicator measures the acceleration or deceleration in the yearly growth rate of central bank liquidity.
By calculating the year-over-year percentage change of the YoY growth rate, it highlights shifts in the pace of liquidity changes, providing insights into market momentum or potential reversals influenced by central bank actions.
This can help reveal impulses in liquidity by identifying changes in the growth rate's acceleration or deceleration. When central bank liquidity experiences a rapid increase or decrease, the second derivative captures these shifts as sharp upward or downward movements.
These impulses often signal pivotal liquidity shifts, which may correspond to major policy changes, market interventions, or financial stability measures, offering an early signal of potential market impacts.
Support Resistance UltimateThe "Support Resistance ULTIMATE" indicator is a comprehensive tool for traders on the TradingView platform, designed to identify key support and resistance levels using two primary techniques: pivot points and volume data. This indicator provides flexibility and customization, allowing traders to adapt it to their specific trading strategies.
KEY FEATURES
Pivot-Based Levels:
This feature calculates support and resistance levels using pivot points, which are derived from the high, low, and close prices of previous trading periods. Pivot points are crucial for forecasting potential market turning points.
Users can customize the pivot calculation by selecting the source type (either 'Close' or 'High/Low') and adjusting the lookback periods for both the left and right sides of the pivot calculation. This flexibility allows traders to adapt the indicator to different market conditions and timeframes.
Volume-Based Levels:
This option focuses on identifying support and resistance levels based on volume data, specifically the Point of Control (POC). The POC represents the price level with the highest traded volume during a specific time period, reflecting a consensus value among market participants.
The indicator includes a rolling POC calculation, allowing traders to dynamically assess areas of significant trading interest that may serve as support or resistance zones.
ADVANTAGES
Customization and Flexibility:
Traders can choose between pivot-based and volume-based levels or use both simultaneously, depending on their analysis needs. This dual approach provides a comprehensive view of market dynamics, accommodating various trading styles.
The indicator offers customizable color settings for support and resistance lines, enhancing chart readability and allowing traders to personalize their visual analysis.
Enhanced Market Insights:
By utilizing pivot points, traders can identify potential reversal or consolidation points, aiding in the prediction of market trends and the establishment of strategic entry and exit points.
Volume-based levels provide insights into market sentiment and participation, highlighting areas of strong support or resistance based on trading volume. This can improve risk management and trade execution by identifying high-probability trading zones.
Importance Scoring:
The indicator calculates the importance of each level based on the number of touches and the duration it holds. This scoring system helps traders assess the strength of support and resistance levels, with thicker lines indicating more significant levels.
This indicator is intended for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Trading involves significant risk, and you should consult with a financial advisor before making any trading decisions. The performance of this indicator is not guaranteed, and past results do not predict future performance. Use at your own risk.
Supports & Resistances [UAlgo]The "Supports & Resistances " indicator is designed to identify and visualize key support and resistance levels on the price chart. It utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) and Pivot Points to define the boundaries of S & R zones and considers historical price action to assess the strength of these zones.
🔶 How to Obtain Zones
The script continuously analyzes the price action and identifies potential support and resistance zones based on the following criteria:
Zone Creation: For swing highs, a zone is created with the high price at the zone length as the top and the top minus the Average True Range (ATR) as the bottom. Conversely, for swing lows, the zone is created with the low price at the zone length as the bottom and the low plus the ATR as the top.
Zone Strength Calculation: The script iterates through historical bars within the zone and counts how many times the price (low for support, high for resistance) touched but failed to break entirely through the zone. This count is assigned as the zone's "strength".
Zone Display and Removal: It identifying zones by assigning a "strength" value based on how many times the price has approached but failed to break the zone. This helps prioritize stronger potential support/resistance levels. Only zones exceeding the defined "strength threshold" are visually displayed on the chart. Weaker zones or those broken by price are automatically removed.
🔶 Parameters
Zone Length: Traders can adjust S & R detection sensitivity, length to be used to find pivot points.
Strength Threshold: Set the minimum number of times the price needs to touch but fail to break a zone for it to be considered "strong" and displayed.
Visual Settings: Tailor the appearance of the support/resistance zones by defining separate colors and text size for borders, backgrounds, and zone text.
🔶 Disclaimer
The "Supports & Resistances " indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only.
It should not be considered as financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument.
The use of this indicator involves inherent risks, and users should employ their own judgment and conduct their own research before making any trading decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Fourier Smoothed Hybrid Volume Spread AnalysisIndicator id:
USER;91bdff47320b4284a375f428f683b21e
(only relevant to those that use API requests)
MEANINGFUL DESCRIPTION:
The Fourier Smoothed Hybrid Volume Spread Analysis (FSHVSA) indicator is an innovative trading tool designed to fuse volume analysis with trend detection capabilities, offering traders a comprehensive view of market dynamics.
This indicator stands apart by integrating the principles of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and volume spread analysis, enhanced with a layer of Fourier smoothing to distill market noise and highlight trend directions with unprecedented clarity.
This smoothing process allows traders to discern the true underlying patterns in volume and price action, stripped of the distractions of short-term fluctuations and noise.
The core functionality of the FSHVSA revolves around the innovative combination of volume change analysis, spread determination (calculated from the open and close price difference), and the strategic use of the EMA (default 10) to fine-tune the analysis of spread by incorporating volume changes.
Trend direction is validated through a moving average (MA) of the histogram, which acts analogously to the Volume MA found in traditional volume indicators. This MA serves as a pivotal reference point, enabling traders to confidently engage with the market when the histogram's movement concurs with the trend direction, particularly when it crosses the Trend MA line, signalling optimal entry points.
It returns 0 when MA of the histogram and EMA of the Price Spread are not align.
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR:
The FSHVSA plots a positive trend when a positive Volume smoothed Spread and EMA of Volume smoothed price is above 0, and a negative when negative Volume smoothed Spread and EMA of Volume smoothed price is below 0. When this conditions are not met it plots 0.
ORIGINALITY & USEFULNESS:
The FSHVSA is unique because it applies DFT for data smoothing, effectively filtering out the minor fluctuations and leaving traders with a clear picture of the market's true movements. The DFT's ability to break down market signals into constituent frequencies offers a granular view of market dynamics, highlighting the amplitude and phase of each frequency component. This, combined with the strategic application of Ehler's Universal Oscillator principles via a histogram, furnishes traders with a nuanced understanding of market volatility and noise levels, thereby facilitating more informed trading decisions.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
My detailed description of the indicator and use cases which I find very valuable.
What is the meaning of price spread?
In finance, a spread refers to the difference between two prices, rates, or yields. One of the most common types is the bid-ask spread, which refers to the gap between the bid (from buyers) and the ask (from sellers) prices of a security or asset.
We are going to use Open-Close spread.
What is Volume spread analysis?
Volume spread analysis (VSA) is a method of technical analysis that compares the volume per candle, range spread, and closing price to determine price direction.
What does this mean?
We need to have a positive Volume Price Spread and a positive Moving average of Volume price spread for a positive trend. OR via versa a negative Volume Price Spread and a negative Moving average of Volume price spread for a negative trend.
What if we have a positive Volume Price Spread and a negative Moving average of Volume Price Spread ?
It results in a neutral, not trending price action.
Thus the indicator returns 0.
In the next Image you can see that trend is negative on 4h, neutral on 12h and neutral on 1D. That means trend is negative .
I am sorry, the chart is a bit messy. The idea is to use the indicator over more than 1 Timeframe.
What is approximation and smoothing?
They are mathematical concepts for making a discrete set of numbers a
continuous curved line.
Fourier and Euler approximation of a spread are taken from aprox library.
Key Features:
Noise Reduction leverages Euler's White noise capabilities for effective Volume smoothing, providing a cleaner and more accurate representation of market dynamics.

Automatic Fibonacci Retracement Golden Pocket (GP)Main info
This script automatically draws you the Fibonacci retracement level called golden pocket from the latest detected pivot point to the actual price. This level is very popular among traders because the price tends to reverse on this level pretty often. You should use this on higher timeframes 15m+.
It is good to keep in mind that this level alone is not enough, you should still have another level there to enter the trade, for example golden pocket in combination with a demand zone is pretty solid. :)
Settings
The length for pivot point calculation is available in the script settings.
You can enable inverted golden pocket (for shorts)
You can hide/show the pivot point labels

TrapointsAn indicator that has Camarilla Pivot Points with some preferred color settings and Fibonacci Pivot Points with some custom levels. This indicator was created to facilitate a "plug & play" version of these pivot points for a friend's community, and I like to share all the scripts I create so that they can potentially serve as helpful references for fellow authors in the community.
The main uses of the pivot points for this indicator are for reference as support/resistance levels.
Titans Empirical LevelsThis indicator marks key pivot levels across two higher timeframes, longer term, and medium term.
When a pivot high or low is detected at the higher timeframe, a line is plotted in the future.
The user may select timeframes and pivot sensitivities in the indicator settings.
As no calculation is involved, the levels are identified purely from historical precedent.
Overlapping lines could imply strength of recent support/resistance at that level.
This indicator should be used in combination with other indicators.
The user is advised to use this indicator at his own risk.
Multi ZigZagI created this as basis for my next scripts. We are just trying to plot multiple zigzags with different length basis here. Input allows you to select different Length , Width , Color and Line Style for each Zigzags.
Max_pivot_size says how many pivots each Zigzag can have. Value 100 means, each zigzag will show 99 lines joining 100 points.
Additional option ShowStatsTable allows you to print pivots in a table. Table only shows selected zigzags.
Pivot deviation code from linear regression used
pivots taken from
so we hybrid the two of them, so insted the linear regression we use the P point of the pivot
the aime here is to see better the true resitance and support level that tradition pivot is missing
™TradeChartist Fib Extensions™TradeChartist Fib Extensions is a free to use script that helps traders plot Fibonacci Extensions on chart. Even though Trading View has a Fib extensions tool, some traders may prefer a plotting script like this with Fib plot lines extending across the whole of the chart to track historic prices in relation to Fib extensions drawn.
----To draw Fib extensions for uptrend ,
1. Choose a Pivot Low point (LL or a HL) as Pivot 1
2. Choose a Pivot High point (must be higher than Pivot 1) as Pivot 2
3. Choose a Pivot Low point (must be lower than Pivot 2, must be Higher than Pivot 1)
----To draw Fib extensions for downtrend,
1. Choose a Pivot High point (HH or a LH) as Pivot 1
2. Choose a Pivot Low point (must be lower than Pivot 1) as Pivot 2
3. Choose a Pivot High point (must be higher than Pivot 2 and lower than Pivot 1)
Negative extensions of -23.6% and -61.8% fib plots may be useful for some to spot reversals or to set stop losses.
Higher levels can be used if price goes beyond 161.8%

RSI Breakout Zones█ OVERVIEW
“RSI Breakout Zones” is a technical analysis tool that identifies significant zones on the chart based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The indicator maps overbought (OB) and oversold (OS) zones using boxes, then extends them until the next zone of the same type is detected, highlighting breakout points to aid in trade entry decisions. These zones often serve as areas of consolidation, support, or resistance.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator identifies overbought (above 70) and oversold (below 30) zones, drawing boxes that extend until the next zone of the same type (OB for OB, OS for OS) is detected. Breakout signals are generated when the price crosses the zone boundaries, indicating potential shifts in market momentum.
Why are RSI zones important? These zones represent areas of extreme market sentiment, often leading to corrections or reversals. Overbought zones suggest potential selling pressure, while oversold zones indicate buying opportunities. After a breakout, a zone may switch roles, e.g., from support to resistance or vice versa, making it a key element in price action analysis. Larger zones, formed during high volatility, may attract price for retests due to stronger imbalances in buyer/seller dynamics. Consolidation often occurs within these zones as the market seeks equilibrium before further moves. However, in strong trends, zones may be decisively broken without immediate pullbacks, and their significance depends on their position relative to key support and resistance levels.
█ FEATURES
- RSI Zone Detection: Calculates RSI with a customizable length (default 14) and identifies overbought/oversold zones based on user-defined levels (default 70/30), drawing boxes that dynamically adjust to price action within the zone.
- Customizable Boxes: Zones extend until the next zone of the same type is detected. The indicator draws zones with adjustable colors for overbought (red) and oversold (green) areas, with options for box and zone transparency.
- Breakout Signals: Generates upward (green triangle) and downward (red triangle) breakout signals when the price crosses the top or bottom of a zone. Signals appear below or above the bar, indicating potential trade entry points.
- Midline: Automatically draws a dashed line at the midpoint of each zone, helping traders assess price behavior within the zone and potential halfway retests.
- Box Management: Option to remove outdated boxes.
- Alerts: Built-in support for alerts on breakout signals, enabling traders to receive notifications for key zone crossings.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
- RSI Settings: Adjust RSI Length (default 14), Overbought Level (default 70), and Oversold Level (default 30) to tailor zone detection sensitivity—higher lengths smooth signals for longer-term analysis.
- Box Settings: Configure colors and transparency for overbought (red) and oversold (green) zones, including box transparency (default 90) and zone transparency (default 90).
- Signal Settings: Customize breakout signal colors (green for upward, red for downward) and enable/disable keeping boxes after RSI normalization.
Interpreting Signals:
- Upward Breakout Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout, suggesting potential bullish momentum and trend continuation or reversal.
- Downward Breakout Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout, suggesting potential bearish momentum.
- RSI Zones: If the price re-enters a zone after a breakout, it may signal a false breakout or consolidation; persistent zones can act as future support/resistance levels. Consolidation often occurs within these zones as the market seeks equilibrium.
- Use signals alongside other technical analysis tools for confirmation, such as moving averages (to confirm trend direction), Fibonacci levels (to identify key price zones), or volume indicators (to validate breakout strength). Analyze RSI zones on higher timeframes for stronger signals due to broader market context.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Momentum Trading: Use RSI zones as overbought/oversold filters. In an uptrend, look for buying opportunities on upward breakouts, and in a downtrend, on downward breakouts. Combining with MACD crossovers, Fibonacci levels, or pivot points enhances zone significance.
- Inter-Zone Trading: Utilize breakouts from one RSI zone and hold the position until reaching the next zone, which may act as a target level or reversal point.
█ NOTES
- Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize RSI length and levels for your trading style.
- For best results, use in trending markets where RSI extremes are more predictive; in ranging markets, additional filters are recommended to reduce false signals.
- Always combine with risk management; RSI zones alone do not guarantee reversals, and false breakouts may occur in low-liquidity environments.
