Support Resistance - Aging [Example]Hello All,
First all of Thanks to Pine Team for adding Arrays to Pine!
In this script I tried to make example for
1. Finding S/R lines using highest/lowest function
2. Using 1D array as 2D (we keep S/R levels and age)
3. "Age" usage for S/R levels, getting older on each candle and changing colors by their age (maximum age is 127 then it disappears)
You can use "Close"/Open " or " High/Low " as source.
There is an option for the background color, by default it's Black, do not forget to set it accordingly :)
Enjoy!

Standard Deviation Pivot pointsSupport Resistance points that are calculated based on the standard deviation of the traditional pivot point(previous session's high, low and close). More often stocks tend to oscillate between 3 levels of deviation forming day's high or low. A breakout of the 3rd SR level with volume indicates a strong trend day.
Support and Resistance ZoneSupport and Resistance Zone Indicator :
Introduction :
The purpose of this indicator is to identify the chart symbol's main supports and resistances. It displays these key zones, which are very important psychological points for traders. Since support and resistance are not very precise levels, the indicator displays them as zones.
Pivots :
Pivots are a key concept in identifying support and resistance. The indicator uses two types of pivot:
Pivot high : This is a high point that has not been reached by a user-defined number of candles on either the left and right of this candle. The " left pivot leg " is the number of candles before this pivot point that have not reached the realized high, and the " right pivot leg " is the number of candles after this pivot point that have not reached this high. If these two conditions are met, the pivot point is considered a turning point, and resistance is probably the cause.
Pivot low : This is a low point that has not been reached by a user-defined number of candles on either the left or right. The " left pivot leg " is the number of candles before this pivot point that have not reached the candle low, and the " right pivot leg " is the number of candles after this pivot point that have not reached this low. If these two conditions are met, the pivot point is considered a turning point, and support is probably the cause.
Support/Resistance area :
If a pivot point has been identified, the indicator considers it a resistance if it's a pivot high, or a support if it's a pivot low. To define the support or resistance zone, we'll use the ATR (Average True Range), an indicator that measures asset volatility. We'll take the ATR of the candle for which the pivot was spotted, and use it as the width of the support or resistance zone. Thus the upper line of support/resistance is at pivot+atr/2 and the lower line is at pivot-atr/2 . The greater the volatility, the larger the zone.
New Support/Resistance :
If a new pivot has been identified, but the level of this pivot lies between the lower line and the upper line of the previous support or resistance, the indicator considers this to be the same support or resistance as before. In this case, no new support or resistance is created. The pivot must be outside the area of the previous support or resistance to be validated.
Anticipated Support/Resistance :
This indicator also allows early detection of support or resistance. To do this, the value of the right pivot legs will be shortened in order to find these areas more quickly. The support or resistance will then be considered anticipated and may disappear at any time if the high/low is reached. On the other hand, if the high/low is not reached, and a number of candles equal to the " Right Pivot Legs" parameter has elapsed since the detection of this anticipated support/resistance, it will be considered validated and will integrate the other supports/resistances of the chart.
Extended supports/resistances :
For a more optimal view, the indicator allows the user to choose the number of last support or resistance levels to be extended to the last candle. This must be specified in the indicator parameters.
Parameters :
Pivot Legs : Determine the left and right legs of the pivot i.e the number of candle before and after the pivot that doesn’t reach pivot point. The pivot is validated only if this two conditions are verified.
Extend Last Supports : Number of supports to extend to the last bar
Extend Last Resistances : Number of resistances to extend to the last bar
Show Support/Resistance Anticipated : If yes, will find anticipated support and resistance
Right Pivot Legs for Anticipation : Determine the right legs of pivots to find faster a support or a resistance.
Conclusion :
This indicator plot support and resistance zones based on pivot. The width of support and resistance zones are calculated with ATR. Possibility to find anticipated support and resistance in order to have more timeliness informations.

Chart Explanation:
The table, a visual output of the script, is conveniently positioned in the bottom right corner of the screen, showcasing the indicator's dynamic results. The configuration block, elucidated in the documentation, empowers users to customize the display position. The default placement is at the bottom right, exemplified in the accompanying chart.
The deliberate design ensures that the table does not obscure the candlesticks, with traders commonly situating it outside the candle area. However, the flexibility exists to overlay the table onto the candles. Thanks to transparent cells, the underlying chart remains visible even with the table displayed atop.
In the initial column of the table, users will find labels for the monthly high and low, accompanied by their respective numerical values. The default precision for these values is set at #.###, yet this can be adjusted within the configuration block to suit markets with varying degrees of volatility.
Mirroring this layout, the last column of the table presents the weekly high and low data. This arrangement is part of the upper half of the table. Transitioning to the lower half, users encounter the resistance levels in the first column and the support levels in the last column.
At the center of the table, prominently displayed, is the monthly pivot point. For a comprehensive understanding of the calculations governing these values, users can refer to the documentation. Importantly, users retain the freedom to modify these mathematical calculations, with the table seamlessly updating to reflect any adjustments made.
Noteworthy is the table's persistence; it continues to display reliably even if users choose to customize the mathematical calculations, providing a consistent and adaptable tool for informed decision-making in trading.
This detailed breakdown offers traders a clear guide to interpreting the information presented by the table, ensuring optimal use and understanding of the Adaptive MFT Extremum Pivots indicator.

The table is a crucial component of this indicator, providing a structured representation of various market levels. Color-coded cells enhance readability, with blue indicating key levels and a semi-transparent background to maintain chart visibility.
1. Utilizing a Table for Enhanced Visibility:
In presenting this wealth of information, the indicator employs a table format beneath the chart. The use of a table is deliberate and offers several advantages:
2. Structured Organization:
The table organizes the diverse data into a structured format, enhancing clarity and making it easier for traders to locate specific information.
3. Concise Presentation:
A table allows for the concise presentation of multiple data points without cluttering the main chart. Traders can quickly reference key levels without distraction.
4. Dynamic Visibility:
As the market dynamically evolves, the table seamlessly updates in real-time, ensuring that the most relevant information is readily visible without obstructing the candlestick chart.
5. Color Coding for Readability:
Color-coded cells in the table not only add visual appeal but also serve a functional purpose by improving readability. Key levels are easily distinguishable, contributing to efficient analysis.

// Color: Borders
const color iBorderColor = color.new(color.white, 75)
This parameters (iBorderColor) sets the color of the borders everywhere within the window.
Table Background (iTableColor):
// Color: Table background
const color iTableColor = color.new(#2B2A29, 25)
This is the background color of the table. If you've got cells without custom background color, this color will be their background.
Title Cell Background (iTitleCellColor):
// Color: Title cell background
const color iTitleCellColor = color.new(#171F54, 0)
This is the background color the title cells. You can set the background of data cells and text color elsewhere.
Text (iCharColor):
// Color: Characters
const color iCharColor = color.white
This is the color of the text - titles and data - within the table window. If you change any of the background colors, you might want to change this parameter to ensure visibility.
Data Cell Background: (iDataCellColor):
// Color: Data cell background
const color iDataCellColor = color.new(#25456E, 0)
The data cells have a background color to differ from title cells. You can configure this is a different parameter (iDataColor). You might even set the same color for data as for the titles if you will.
---
Mathematical Background:
Monthly and Weekly Extremums:
The indicator calculates the High (H) and Low (L) of the previous month and week, ensuring accurate representation of these key levels.
Standard Monthly Pivot Point:
The standard pivot point is determined based on the previous month's data using the formula:
PivotPoint = (PrevMonthHigh + PrevMonthLow + Close ) / 3
Monthly Pivot Points (R1, R2, R3, S1, S2, S3):
Additional pivot points are calculated for Resistances (R) and Supports (S) using the monthly data:
R1 = 2 * PivotPoint - PrevMonthLow
S1 = 2 * PivotPoint - PrevMonthHigh
R2 = PivotPoint + (PrevMonthHigh - PrevMonthLow)
S2 = PivotPoint - (PrevMonthHigh - PrevMonthLow)
R3 = PrevMonthHigh + 2 * (PivotPoint - PrevMonthLow)
S3 = PrevMonthLow - 2 * (PrevMonthHigh - PivotPoint)
---
Code Explanation and Interpretation:
The table displayed beneath the chart provides the following information:
Monthly Extremums:
(H) High of the previous month
(L) Low of the previous month
// Function to get the high and low of the previous month
getPrevMonthHighLow() =>
var float prevMonthHigh = na
var float prevMonthLow = na
monthChanged = month(time) != month(time )
if (monthChanged)
prevMonthHigh := high
prevMonthLow := low
Weekly Extremums:
(H) High of the previous week
(L) Low of the previous week
// Function to get the high and low of the previous week
getPrevWeekHighLow() =>
var float prevWeekHigh = na
var float prevWeekLow = na
weekChanged = weekofyear(time) != weekofyear(time )
if (weekChanged)
prevWeekHigh := high
prevWeekLow := low
Monthly Pivots:
Pivot: Standard pivot point based on the previous month's data
// Function to calculate the standard pivot point based on the previous month's data
getStandardPivotPoint() =>
= getPrevMonthHighLow()
pivotPoint = (prevMonthHigh + prevMonthLow + close ) / 3
Resistances:
R3, R2, R1: Monthly resistance levels
// Function to calculate additional pivot points based on the monthly data
getMonthlyPivotPoints() =>
= getPrevMonthHighLow()
pivotPoint = (prevMonthHigh + prevMonthLow + close ) / 3
r1 = (2 * pivotPoint) - prevMonthLow
s1 = (2 * pivotPoint) - prevMonthHigh
r2 = pivotPoint + (prevMonthHigh - prevMonthLow)
s2 = pivotPoint - (prevMonthHigh - prevMonthLow)
r3 = prevMonthHigh + 2 * (pivotPoint - prevMonthLow)
s3 = prevMonthLow - 2 * (prevMonthHigh - pivotPoint)
Initializing and Populating the Table:
The myTable variable initializes the table with a blue background, and subsequent table.cell functions populate the table with headers and data.
// Initialize the table with adjusted bgcolor
var myTable = table.new(position = iPosition, columns = 5, rows = 10, bgcolor = color.new(color.blue, 90), border_width = 1, border_color = color.new(color.blue, 70))
Dynamic Data Population:
Data is dynamically populated in the table using the calculated values for Monthly Extremums, Weekly Extremums, Monthly Pivot Points, Resistances, and Supports.
// Add rows dynamically with data
= getPrevMonthHighLow()
= getPrevWeekHighLow()
= getMonthlyPivotPoints()

Machine Learning: Support and Resistance [YinYangAlgorithms]Overview:
Support and Resistance is normally based upon Pivot Points and Highest Highs and Lowest Lows. Many times coders even incorporate Volume, RSI and other factors into the equation. However there may be a downside to doing a pure technical approach based on historical levels. We live in a time where Machine Learning is becoming more and more used; thus we have decided to create a Machine Learning Support and Resistance Projection based Indicator. Rather than using traditional Support and Resistance calculations using historical data, we have taken a rather different approach. This Indicator instead attempts to Predict and Project where Support and Resistance locations will be based on a Machine Learning Model using a form of KNN (k-Nearest Neighbors).
Since this indicator creates a Projection of where it deems Support and Resistance will be, it has the ability to move its Support and Resistance before the price even gets to it if it believes it will surpass its projections. This may create a more accurate placement of Support and Resistance as they’re not based on historical levels.
This Indicator does not Repaint.
How it works:
This Indicator makes its projections based on the source you provide (by default close) of the previous bar and submits the source, RSI and EMA to our Projection Function to get its projection of the current bar.
The Projection function essentially calculates potential movement after finding the differences between the source the MA from the current bar, previous bar and average over the span of Machine Learning Length.
Potential movement is defined as:
Average Difference + Average(Machine Learning Average, Average Last Distance)
Average Difference: (Absolute value of Current Source - Current MA) - (Absolute value of Machine Learning Average - Machine Learning MA)
Average Last Distance: Average(Current Source - Current MA, Previous Source - Previous MA)
It then predicts the next bars directional movement (bullish or bearish bar) using several factors:
Previous Source > Previous MA
Current Source - Current MA > Average Source - Average MA
Current RSI > Previous RSI
Current RSI > 30 and Previous RSI <= 30
Current RSI < 70 and Previous RSI >= 70
This helps us to predict the direction the next bar may move.
We then calculate a multiplier that we apply to our Potential Movement value to get our final result which is our Current Bars Close Projection.
Our multiplier is calculated using:
(Current RSI > 30 and Previous RSI <= 30) OR (Current RSI < 70 and Previous RSI >= 70)
Current Source - Current MA > Previous Source - Previous MA
We then create an array and fill it with the previous X projections (Machine Learning Length) and send it to another function. This function, if told to, will sort the data accordingly and then output the KNN average of the length given.
We calculate and plot various KNN lengths to create different Zones:
Strong Support: Length of 2 but sort the data Ascending (low to high)
Strong Resistance: Length of 2 but sort the data Descending (high to low)
Support: Length of Machine Length Length / 10 or Min of 2 sorted by Ascending
Resistance: Length of Machine Length Length / 10 or Min of 2 sorted by Descending
There are also 4 other plots you may be wondering what they are, there is your AVG, VWMA, Long Term Memory and Current Projection.
By default your Current Projection is disabled in settings but you can enable it if you are curious to see how the projections for each close are calculated. It is, however, not a crucial point of interest (white line).
The average is simply the average value of the Machine Learning Data (purple line).
The VWMA is a VWMA calculation applied to our Data over a length specified in settings (by default 1)(blue line). The VWMA is crucial when combined with the Avg as they can cross over and under each other. These crosses represent potential Bullish and Bearish zones.
Lastly, but certainly not least, we have the Long Term Memory (maroon line). The Long Term Memory can be displayed either as an ‘Average’, ‘Hard Line’ or ‘None’. The Long Term Average is only updated every Machine Learning Length Bar Index’s and is populated with the average of the Machine Learning Data. For Instance, if Machine Learning Length is set to 100, the Long Term Memory is only updated every 100 bars, and since its length is the same as the Machine Learning Length, that means its data is composed of 10,000 bars worth of data. The Long Term Memory may be very beneficial for determining where Support and Resistance lie over the Long Term within a Machine Learning Algorithm. When set to ‘Average’ it plots the connection lines diagonally, and although they may be more visually appealing, they’re less useful when it comes to actually seeing support and resistance as generally speaking, support and resistance lie on the horizontal. When set to ‘Hard Line’ the Long Term Memory is connected with hard lines and holds the price value until the next time it is updated. This makes it much more useful for potentially identifying Support and Resistance.
Tutorial:
Here is an overview of what the Indicator looks like, now let's start to dissect it.
In the example above we can see how all of the lines between the Major Support and Resistance zones may act as BOTH Support and Resistance depending on which side the price is currently on. In the circle on the left, we can see how it can fluctuate between the two. If you look at the circle on the right, we can see how the Average line acts as a strong support before it fails to maintain it. Generally speaking, most Support and Resistance locations may potentially fail to hold after 3 tests, as the Average did in this example.
As you can see, the Support and Resistance doesn’t wait to be tested before adjusting, which is why there are 2 lines which create their zones. The inner line is the Support/Resistance and the outer line is the Strong Support/Resistance. The Yellow Circle shows the inner line was able to calculate the moving resistance correctly and then adjusted accordingly as it was projecting the price to keep increasing. However, if you look at the White Circle, you can see that since there was first a crash, and then parabolic movement, that the inner zone could not move and predict the resistance as well as the outer zone could.
We consider the price to be ‘Overvalued’ when it is above the VWMA (blue line) and ‘Undervalued’ when it is below the VWMA. It is considered ‘fair’ price when it is within the VWMA to Average zone (between the blue and purple lines). If you look at the example above, you’ll notice where the two yellow circles are, it is not only considered ‘Overvalued’, but it then proceeds to ride the inner resistance line upwards. This is common when the market is overly bullish and vice versa when it is bearish. Please keep in mind, although it is common, it doesn’t mean a correction can’t happen.
In this example above we look at the last bull run that may have started due to the halving. This bull run was very bullish as you can see in the example above. The price was constantly sitting within the Resistance Zone and the VWMA that was very close to it was constantly acting as a Support. Naturally, due to the Algorithm used in this Indicator, as the momentum starts to slow down, the VWMA (blue line) will start to space out more and more from the Resistance Zone. This doesn’t mean the momentum is gone, it just means it may be slowing down.
Unfortunately we have to study the Bear Market with a different perspective than the Bull Market. However, there are still some similarities within the two. If you refer to the example above and the previous example, you can clearly see that the Bull Market loves to stay with the Resistance Zone and use the VWMA as a Support. However, the Bear Market does not. This is a normal occurrence, however we can see from the example above you may see a correction / horizontal movement when the Outer Support Line is touched. If you look at all 3 yellow circles, the Outer Support Line was touched, then either a small correction or horizontal consolidation occurred.
We will conclude our Tutorial here, hopefully you’ll be able to benefit from a moving Support and Resistance calculated with Machine Learning that projects its locations, rather than using traditional calculations.
Settings:
Source: This source is the base for all our calculations
Machine Learning Length: How much projection data are we storing and using to make calculations.
Smoothing Length: We need to smooth calculations such as RSI, EMA and VWMA. What length are we smoothing it with?
VWMA ML Projection Length: How far into our Machine Learning data should we average for our VWMA. Please note the 'Smoothing Length' is still applied here after getting the Projection Average.
Long Term Memory: Long term memory has the same storage length but is only updated once per Machine Learning Length. For instance, if Machine Learning Length is 100, it will save the Average of our data once every 100 bars. This means its memory is an average of 10,000 bars of Machine Learning. 'Average' connects its values diagonally whereas 'Hard Line' holds its value until it changes.
Use Average Last Distance In Potential Movement: This can help accuracy but generally also displaces the Support and Resistance by projecting it further.
Show Current Projection: Projections occur for each bar, and our Machine Learning utilizes these projections by storing and evaluating them. This toggle will display the Current Projection Line which is used to create all our Projections.
If you have any questions, comments, ideas or concerns please don't hesitate to contact us.
HAPPY TRADING!
Parallel Pivot Lines [LuxAlgo]Displays lines connecting past pivot high/low points with each line having the slope of a linear regression. This slope can also be controlled by the user with the 'Slope' setting. Each line can be used as a support or resistance by the user.
Settings
Length : Pivot length. Use higher values for having lines connected to more significant pivots points.
Lookback : Number of lines connecting a pivot high/low to display, with a total of lines equal to Lookback*2
Slope : Allows the user to multiply the linear regression slope by a number within -1 and 1
Limitations
The script has currently several real time behavior limitations. Lines are displayed retrospectively and will not update with the arrival of new bars. Readjusting the indicator to newer pivots will require the user to either hide/unhide the indicator or change its settings.
High Length or Lookback values might not return any lines if the location of a pivot point is outside the defined buffer size of the indicator (set as 5000 bars).
How To Use
The indicator can be used to get supports and resistances and is more so closer to a drawing tool due to its limitations. The lines not updating with the arrival of new bars have the advantage of providing fixed supports/resistances.
The Slope setting allows the user to control the angle and direction of the lines. Using a Slope of 1 will return lines with the same slope as the one of a linear regression fit from the farthest pivot point displayed by the indicator to the most recent bar.
The chart above shows the indicators and a linear regression in orange.
If you want to have horizontal lines, use a Slope equal to 0.
Finally using a negative slope value will allow the user to have lines in opposite directions to the main trend.
Conclusion
We hope you like this indicator (drawing tool) and find it useful for drawing your support & resistances in a unique way!
Sylvain Zig-Zag [MyTradingCoder]This Pine Script version of ZigZagHighLow is a faithful port of Sylvain Vervoort's original study, initially implemented in NinjaScript and later added to the thinkorswim standard library. This indicator identifies and connects swing points in price data, offering a clear visualization of market moves that exceed a specified threshold. Additionally, it now includes features for detecting and plotting support and resistance levels, enhancing its utility for technical analysis.
Overview
The Sylvain Zig-Zag study excels at highlighting significant price swings by plotting points where the price change, combined with volatility adjustments via the Average True Range (ATR), exceeds a user-defined percentage. It effectively smooths out minor fluctuations, allowing traders to focus on the primary market trends. This tool is particularly useful in identifying potential turning points, trends in price movements, and key support and resistance levels, making it a valuable addition to your technical analysis arsenal.
How It Works
The Sylvain Zig-Zag indicator works by detecting swing points in the price data and connecting them to form a zigzag pattern. A swing point is identified when the price moves a certain distance, defined by a combination of percentage change and ATR. This distance must be exceeded for a swing point to be plotted.
When the price moves upwards and exceeds the previous high by a specified percentage plus a factor of the ATR, a new high swing point is plotted. Conversely, a low swing point is plotted when the price moves downwards and exceeds the previous low by the same criteria. This ensures that only significant price moves are considered, filtering out minor fluctuations and providing a clear view of the overall market trend.
In addition to plotting zigzag lines, the indicator can now identify and draw support and resistance levels based on the detected swing points. These levels are crucial for identifying potential reversal areas and market structure.
Key Features
Swing Point Detection: Accurately identifies significant price swings by considering both percentage price change and volatility (via Average True Range).
Dynamic Support/Resistance: Automatically generates support and resistance lines based on the identified swing points, providing potential areas of price reversals.
Customizable Parameters: Tailor the indicator's sensitivity to your preferred trading style and market conditions. Adjust parameters like percentage reversal, ATR settings, and absolute/tick reversals.
Visual Clarity: Choose to display the ZigZag line, support/resistance levels, new trend icons, continuation icons, and even customize bar colors for easy visual analysis.
Trading Applications
Trend Identification: Easily visualize the prevailing market trend using the direction of the ZigZag line and support/resistance levels.
Entry/Exit Signals: Potential entry points can be identified when the price interacts with the dynamic support/resistance levels.
Stop-Loss Placement: Use recent swing points as logical places for setting stop-loss orders.
Profit Targets: Project potential price targets based on the distance between previous swing points.
Input Parameters
Several input parameters can be adjusted to customize the behavior of the Sylvain Zig-Zag indicator. These parameters allow traders to fine-tune the detection of swing points and support/resistance levels to better suit their trading strategy and the specific market conditions they are analyzing.
High Source and Low Source:
These inputs define the price points used for detecting high and low swing points, respectively. You can choose between high, low, open, or close prices for these calculations.
Percentage Reversal:
This input sets the minimum percentage change in price required for a swing to be detected. A higher percentage value will result in fewer but more significant swing points, while a lower value will detect more frequent, smaller swings.
Absolute Reversal:
This parameter allows for an additional fixed value to be added to the minimum price change and ATR change. This can be useful for increasing the distance between swing points in volatile markets.
ATR Length:
This input defines the period used for calculating the ATR, which is a measure of market volatility. A longer ATR period will smooth out the ATR calculation, while a shorter period will make it more sensitive to recent price changes.
ATR Multiplier:
This factor is applied to the ATR value to adjust the sensitivity of the swing point detection. A higher multiplier will increase the required price movement for a swing point to be plotted, reducing the number of detected swings.
Tick Reversal:
This input allows for an additional value in ticks to be added to the minimum price change and ATR change, providing further customization in the swing point detection process.
Support and Resistance:
Show S/R: Enable or disable the plotting of support and resistance levels.
Max S/R Levels: Set the maximum number of support and resistance levels to display.
S/R Line Width: Adjust the width of the support and resistance lines.
Visual Settings
The Sylvain Zig-Zag indicator also includes visual settings to enhance the clarity of the plotted swing points and trends. You can customize the color and width of the zigzag line, and enable icons to indicate new trends and continuation patterns. Additionally, the bars can be colored based on the detected trend, aiding in quick visual analysis.
Conclusion
This port of the ZigZagHighLow study from NinjaScript to Pine Script preserves the essence of Sylvain Vervoort’s methodology while adding new features for support and resistance. It provides traders with a powerful tool for technical analysis. The combination of price changes and ATR ensures that you have a robust and adaptable tool for identifying key market movements and structural levels. Customize the settings to match your trading style and gain a clearer picture of market trends, turning points, and support/resistance areas. Enjoy improved market analysis and more informed trading decisions with the Sylvain Zig-Zag indicator.
Support and Resistance Breakouts By RICHIESupport and resistance are fundamental concepts in technical analysis used to identify price levels on charts that act as barriers, preventing the price of an asset from getting pushed in a certain direction. Here’s a detailed description of each and how breakout strategies are typically used:
Support
Support is a price level where a downtrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of demand. As the price of an asset drops, it hits a level where buyers tend to step in, causing the price to rebound.
Support Level Identification: Support levels are identified by looking at historical data where prices have repeatedly fallen to a certain level but have then rebounded.
Strength of Support: The more times an asset price hits a support level without breaking below it, the stronger that support level is considered to be.
Resistance
Resistance is a price level where an uptrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of selling interest. As the price of an asset increases, it hits a level where sellers tend to step in, causing the price to drop.
Resistance Level Identification: Resistance levels are identified by looking at historical data where prices have repeatedly risen to a certain level but have then fallen back.
Strength of Resistance: The more times an asset price hits a resistance level without breaking above it, the stronger that resistance level is considered to be.
Breakouts
A breakout occurs when the price moves above a resistance level or below a support level with increased volume. Breakouts can be significant because they suggest a change in supply and demand dynamics, often leading to strong price movements.
Breakout Above Resistance: Indicates a bullish market sentiment. Traders often interpret this as a sign to enter a long position (buy).
Breakout Below Support: Indicates a bearish market sentiment. Traders often interpret this as a sign to enter a short position (sell).
Breakout Trading Strategies
Confirmation: Wait for a candle to close beyond the support or resistance level to confirm the breakout.
Volume: Increased volume on a breakout adds credibility, suggesting that the price move is supported by strong buying or selling interest.
Retest: Sometimes, after a breakout, the price will return to the breakout level to test it as a new support or resistance. This retest offers another entry point.
Stop-Loss: Place stop-loss orders just below the resistance (for long positions) or above the support (for short positions) to limit potential losses in case of a false breakout.
Take-Profit: Identify target levels for taking profits. These can be set based on previous support/resistance levels or using tools like Fibonacci retracements.
The Perfect Support & ResistanceSupport & Resistance drawn based on overbought & oversold RSI . where the overbought acts as resistance and oversold acts as support.
It has 2 levels (for support and resistance - i call them level_n_high or level_n_low) for each lookback period. it checks the highest pivot and the lowest pivot based on the lookback period then we compare if rsi is higher than the highest pivot or the lowest pivot and we also check if rsi is overbought or oversold and if the statement is true, then we assign the high to the variable level_n_high or level_n_low. n being the number of levels. in total there are 5 levels with both high & low for 5 lookback periods. This is basically how the code works.
these levels can be accessed at any timeframe. the defaults are 5m and 30m.

Hyper Frame Fibo MA RibbonsIntroduction
Moving averages are an integral part of the TA world. There are different types of moving averages and each person uses them depending on their strategy and market conditions.
Meanwhile, the main variable in calculating the averages is their LENGTH. This value is optional, but not every value is applicable.
After much experience in the world of financial markets, I came to the conclusion that although the most popular length values are 20, 50, 100, and 200, the Fibonacci number come with surprising results .
Description
The following script calculates seven averages with the length of Fibonacci numbers (34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377 and 610) with the formula of your choice (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA) and shows that we named it FiboMa .
You can also have Bollinger Bands with the desired frame at the same time.
This is not the whole story...
You can see the same values from smaller or larger frames at the same time!
We named this feature Hyper Frame Vision .
It is possible to display values for FiboMa up to three hyper frames (with the main frame a total of 4 levels) and in the Bollinger Bands one hyper frame (with the main frame a total of 2 levels).
By default, the display of FiboMa hyper frame values is limited to the last 10 bars, which you can change to an arbitrary value by changing the source code.
The display of hyper frame values is not limited for Bollinger Band.
What is its use? What is it good for?
Support and Resistance
Using dynamic support / resistance is much smarter than static! This protects you from the risk of many fake breaks, and your profit and loss limits will be more flexible and more efficient.
The intersection of FiboMa ribbons are potential points of support / resistance.
We use colors to easily identify supports / resistances.
Any average lower than the price is assumed as support and displayed in green, and any average above the price is assumed as resistance so displayed in red.
So the color of the averages is dynamic.
The color of FiboMa is a range from red to green. Whatever colors get saturated , the lenght is longer and the more power it has as support / resistance.
Volatility
With this script, you also have the ability to monitor the amount of market volatility ! The combination of Bollinger Bands and FiboMa provides a clear view of the market volatility.
The decrease and compression of the FiboMa width is a sign of a decrease in volatility and vice versa.
Trend
I don't see the need for additional explanation, only whenever the price is higher than the middle band , the BB cloud is green , and whenever it is lower , is red .
The wider FiboMa means the stronger trend.
How to use
In the script settings you have the ability to enable or disable anything except.
---------------------------------------------
Similar scripts have been published before and we were inspired by them and tried to improve idea and code uniqe one.
I hope it will be useful .. Support us with your likes and comments .. We have anothers great script .. Just started.

CYCLE BY RiotWolftradingDescription of the "CYCLE" Indicator
The "CYCLE" indicator is a custom Pine Script v5 script for TradingView that visualizes cyclic patterns in price action, dividing the trading day into specific sessions and 90-minute quarters (Q1-Q4). It is designed to identify and display market phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal) along with key support and resistance levels within those sessions. Additionally, it allows customization of boxes, lines, labels, and colors to suit user preferences.
Main Features
Cycle Phases:
Accumulation (1900-0100): Represents the phase where large operators accumulate positions.
Manipulation (0100-0700): Identifies potential manipulative moves to mislead retail traders.
Distribution (0700-1300): The phase where large operators distribute their positions.
Continuation/Reversal (1300-1900): Indicates whether the price continues the trend or reverses.
90-Minute Quarters (Q1-Q4):
Divides each 6-hour cycle (360 minutes) into four 90-minute quarters (Q1: 00:00-01:30, Q2: 01:30-03:00, Q3: 03:00-04:30, Q4: 04:30-06:00 UTC).
Each quarter is displayed with a colored box (Q1: light purple, Q2: light blue, Q3: light gray, Q4: light pink) and labels (defaulted to black).
Support and Resistance Visualization:
Draws boxes or lines (based on settings) showing the high and low levels of each session.
Optionally displays accumulated volume at the highs and lows within the boxes.
Daily Lines and Last 3 Boxes:
How to Use the Indicator
Step 1: Add the Indicator to TradingView
Open TradingView and select the chart where you want to apply the indicator (e.g., UMG9OOR on a 5-minute timeframe, as shown in the screenshot).
Go to the Pine Editor (at the bottom of the TradingView interface).
Copy and paste the provided code.
Click Compile and then Add to Chart.
Step 2: Configure the Indicator
Click on the indicator name on the chart ("CYCLE") and select Settings (or double-click the name).
Adjust the options based on your needs:
Cycle Phases: Enable/disable phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal) and adjust their time slots if needed.
90-Minute Quarters: Enable/disable quarters (Q1-Q4).
Step 3: Interpret the Indicator
Identify Cycle Phases:
Observe the red boxes indicating the phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, etc.).
The high and low levels within each phase are potential support/resistance zones.
If volume is enabled, pay attention to the accumulated volume at highs and lows, as it may indicate the strength of those levels.
Use the 90-Minute Quarters (Q1-Q4):
The colored boxes (Q1-Q4) divide the day into 90-minute segments.
Each quarter shows the price range (high and low) during that period.
Use these boxes to identify price patterns within each quarter, such as breakouts or consolidations.
The labels (Q1, Q2, etc.) help you track time and anticipate potential moves in the next quarter.
Analyze Support and Resistance:
The high and low levels of each phase/quarter act as support and resistance.
Daily lines (if enabled) show key levels from the previous day, useful for planning entries/exits.
The "last 3 boxes below price" (if enabled) highlight potential support levels the price might target.
Avoid Manipulation:
During the Manipulation phase (0100-0700), be cautious of sharp moves or false breakouts.
Use the high/low levels of this phase to identify potential traps (as explained in your first question about manipulation candles).
Step 4: Trading Strategy
Entries and Exits:
Support/Resistance: Use the high/low levels of phases and quarters to set entry or exit points.
For example, if the price bounces off a Q1 support level, consider a buy.
Breakouts: If the price breaks a high/low of a quarter (e.g., Q2), wait for confirmation to enter in the direction of the breakout.
Volume: If accumulated volume is high near a key level, that level may be more significant.
Risk Management:
Place stop-loss orders below lows (for buys) or above highs (for sells) identified by the indicator.
Avoid trading during the Manipulation phase unless you have a specific strategy to handle false breakouts.
Time Context:
Use the quarters (Q1-Q4) to plan your trades based on time. For example, if Q3 is typically volatile in your market, prepare for larger moves between 03:00-04:30 UTC.
Step 5: Adjustments and Testing
Test on Different Timeframes: The indicator is set for a 5-minute timeframe (as in the screenshot), but you can test it on other timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 15-minute) by adjusting the time slots if needed.
Adjust Colors and Styles: If the default colors are not visible on your chart, change them for better clarity.
---
📌 1. **Accumulation: Strong Institutional Activity**
- During the **accumulation phase, we see **high volume: 82.773K, which suggests strong buying interest**, likely from institutional players.
- This sets the base for the following upward move in price.
---
📌 2. **Manipulation: False Breakout with Lower Volume**
- Later, there's a manipulation phase where price breaks above previous highs, but the volume (71.814K) is **lower than during accumulation**.
- This implies that buyers are not as aggressive as before—no real demandbehind the breakout.
- It’s likely a bull trap, where smart money is selling into the breakout to exit their positions.
---
### 📌 3. Distribution: Weakness and Lack of Demand
- The market enters a distribution phase, and volume drops even further (only 7.914K).
- Price struggles to go higher, and you start seeing rejections at the top.
- This shows that demand is drying up, and smart money is offloading positions**—not accumulating anymore.
---
### 💡 Why Take the Short Here?
- Volume is not increasing with new highs—showing weak demand**.
- The manipulation volume is weaker than the accumulation volume, confirming the breakout was likely false.
- Structure starts to break down (Q levels falling), which confirms weakness.
- This creates a high-probability short setup:
- **Entry:** after confirmation of distribution and structural breakdown.
- **Stop loss:** above the manipulation high.
- **Target:** down toward previous lows or value zones.
---
### ✅ Conclusion
Since the manipulation volume failed to exceed the accumulation volume, the breakout lacked real strength. Combined with decreasing volume in the distribution phase, this indicates fading demand and supply taking control—which justifies entering a short position.
Filtered Swing Pivot S&R )Pivot support and resis🔍 Filtered Swing Pivot S&R - Overview
This indicator identifies and plots tested support and resistance levels using a filtered swing pivot strategy. It focuses on high-probability zones where price has reacted before, helping traders better anticipate future price behavior.
It filters out noise using:
Customizable pivot detection logic
Minimum price level difference
ATR (Average True Range) volatility filter
Confirmation by price retesting the level before plotting
⚙️ Core Logic Explained
✅ 1. Pivot Detection
The script uses Pine Script's built-in ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to find local highs (potential resistance) and lows (potential support).
Pivot Lookback/Lookahead (pivotLen):
A pivot is confirmed if it's the highest (or lowest) point within a lookback and lookahead range of pivotLen bars.
Higher values = fewer, stronger pivots.
Lower values = more, but potentially noisier levels.
✅ 2. Pending Pivot Confirmation
Once a pivot is detected:
It is not drawn immediately.
The script waits until price re-tests that pivot level. This retest confirms the market "respects" the level.
For example: if price hits a previous high again, it's treated as a valid resistance.
✅ 3. Dual-Level Filtering System
To reduce chart clutter and ignore insignificant levels, two filters are applied:
Fixed Threshold (Minimum Level Difference):
Ensures a new pivot level is not too close to the last one.
ATR-Based Filter:
Dynamically adjusts sensitivity based on current volatility using the formula:
java
Copy
Edit
Minimum distance = ATR × ATR Multiplier
Only pivots that pass both filters are plotted.
✅ 4. Line Drawing
Once a pivot is:
Detected
Retested
Filtered
…a horizontal dashed line is drawn at that level to highlight support or resistance.
Resistance: Red (default)
Support: Green (default)
These lines are:
Dashed for clarity
Extended for X bars into the future (user-defined) for forward visibility
🎛️ Customizable Inputs
Parameter Description
Pivot Lookback/Lookahead Bars to the left and right of a pivot to confirm it
Minimum Level Difference Minimum price difference required between plotted levels
ATR Length Number of bars used in ATR volatility calculation
ATR Multiplier for Pivot Multiplies ATR to determine volatility-based pivot separation
Line Extension (bars) How many future bars the level line will extend for better visibility
Resistance Line Color Color for resistance lines (default: red)
Support Line Color Color for support lines (default: green)
📈 How to Use It
This indicator is ideal for:
Identifying dynamic support & resistance zones that adapt to volatility.
Avoiding false levels by waiting for pivot confirmation.
Visual guidance for entries, exits, stop placements, or take-profits.
🔑 Trade Ideas:
Use support/resistance retests for entry confirmations.
Combine with candlestick patterns or volume spikes near drawn levels.
Use in confluence with trendlines or moving averages.
🚫 What It Does Not Do (By Design)
Does not repaint or remove past levels once confirmed.
Does not include labels or alerts (but can be added).
Does not auto-scale based on timeframes (manual tuning recommended).
🛠️ Possible Enhancements (Optional)
If desired, you could extend the functionality to include:
Labels with “S” / “R”
Alert when a new level is tested or broken
Toggle for support/resistance visibility
Adjustable line width or style
tance indicator
Trend Analysis with Volatility and MomentumVolatility and Momentum Trend Analyzer
The Volatility and Momentum Trend Analyzer is a multi-faceted TradingView indicator designed to provide a comprehensive analysis of market trends, volatility, and momentum. It incorporates key features to identify trend direction (uptrend, downtrend, or sideways), visualize weekly support and resistance levels, and offer a detailed assessment of market strength and activity. Below is a breakdown of its functionality:
1. Input Parameters
The indicator provides customizable settings for precision and adaptability:
Volatility Lookback Period: Configurable period (default: 14) for calculating Average True Range (ATR), which measures market volatility.
Momentum Lookback Period: Configurable period (default: 14) for calculating the Rate of Change (ROC), which measures the speed and strength of price movements.
Support/Resistance Lookback Period: Configurable period (default: 7 weeks) to determine critical support and resistance levels based on weekly high and low prices.
2. Volatility Analysis (ATR)
The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated to quantify the market's volatility:
What It Does: ATR measures the average range of price movement over the specified lookback period.
Visualization: Plotted as a purple line in a separate panel below the price chart, with values amplified (multiplied by 10) for better visibility.
3. Momentum Analysis (ROC)
The Rate of Change (ROC) evaluates the momentum of price movements:
What It Does: ROC calculates the percentage change in closing prices over the specified lookback period, indicating the strength and direction of market moves.
Visualization: Plotted as a yellow line in a separate panel below the price chart, with values amplified (multiplied by 10) for better visibility.
4. Trend Detection
The indicator identifies the current market trend based on momentum and the position of the price relative to its moving average:
Uptrend: Occurs when momentum is positive, and the closing price is above the simple moving average (SMA) of the specified lookback period.
Downtrend: Occurs when momentum is negative, and the closing price is below the SMA.
Sideways Trend: Occurs when neither of the above conditions is met.
Visualization: The background of the price chart changes color to reflect the detected trend:
Green: Uptrend.
Red: Downtrend.
Gray: Sideways trend.
5. Weekly Support and Resistance
Critical levels are calculated based on weekly high and low prices:
Support: The lowest price observed over the last specified number of weeks.
Resistance: The highest price observed over the last specified number of weeks.
Visualization:
Blue Line: Indicates the support level.
Orange Line: Indicates the resistance level.
Both lines are displayed on the main price chart, dynamically updating as new data becomes available.
6. Alerts
The indicator provides configurable alerts for trend changes, helping traders stay informed without constant monitoring:
Uptrend Alert: Notifies when the market enters an uptrend.
Downtrend Alert: Notifies when the market enters a downtrend.
Sideways Alert: Notifies when the market moves sideways.
7. Key Use Cases
Trend Following: Identify and follow the dominant trend to capitalize on sustained price movements.
Volatility Assessment: Measure market activity to determine potential breakouts or quiet consolidation phases.
Support and Resistance: Highlight key levels where price is likely to react, assisting in decision-making for entries, exits, or stop-loss placement.
Momentum Tracking: Gauge the strength and speed of price moves to validate trends or anticipate reversals.
8. Visualization Summary
Main Chart:
Background color-coded for trend direction (green, red, gray).
Blue and orange lines for weekly support and resistance.
Lower Panels:
Purple line for volatility (ATR).
Yellow line for momentum (ROC).
RY-Parabolic Stop and ReverseParabolic Stop and Reverse with Support Resistance (PSAR-SR)
Identify dynamic support and resistance levels based on price movements.
Reduce false signals often generated by the regular PSAR.
Provide more accurate trading decisions by considering previous reversal points as support and resistance.
How Does PSAR-SR Work?
PSAR Reversal Points:
When the regular PSAR generates a reversal signal, the price at that reversal point is used as support (in an uptrend) or resistance (in a downtrend).
Support and Resistance Lines:
Support: A line drawn from the previous PSAR reversal point in an uptrend.
Resistance: A line drawn from the previous PSAR reversal point in a downtrend.
Price often moves sideways between these support and resistance levels before a breakout occurs.
Breakout Above/Below Support and Resistance:
A Buy signal is generated when the price breaks above resistance with a new candle closing above it.
A Sell signal is generated when the price breaks below support with a new candle closing below it.
Strategy Using PSAR-SR
Wait for the Breakout:
Avoid buying or selling immediately when the PSAR gives a signal.
Confirm that the price breaks past the support or resistance levels and forms a new candle outside those lines.
Use Alongside Other Indicators:
PSAR-SR is not recommended as a standalone tool. Use additional confirmation indicators such as:
Moving Average: To identify long-term trends.
RSI or MACD: To confirm momentum or overbought/oversold conditions.
Advantages of PSAR-SR
Reduces False Signals:
By focusing on previous support and resistance levels, PSAR-SR avoids invalid signals.
Helps Identify Breakouts:
It provides better insight for traders to enter the market during valid breakouts.
Limitations of PSAR-SR
Not Suitable for Sideways Markets:
If the price moves sideways for an extended period, the signals may become less effective.
Requires Additional Confirmation:
Should be used in combination with other indicators to improve accuracy.
Conclusion
PSAR-SR is a helpful tool for identifying dynamic support and resistance levels and generating buy/sell signals based on price breakouts. However, it should always be used with additional indicators for confirmation to avoid false trades.
Disclaimer:
Use this indicator at your own risk, and always perform additional analysis before making any trading decisions.

Ichimoku Cloud Signals [sgbpulse] Ichimoku Cloud Signals – Your Advanced Trading Tool
Meet Ichimoku Cloud Signals, the enhanced and interactive version of the classic Ichimoku Cloud indicator, designed specifically for TradingView traders seeking precision and flexibility in their trading decisions. This indicator allows you to maximize the Ichimoku's potential by customizing trend criteria, receiving clear visual signals for entering and exiting positions, and getting alerts to keep you informed.
Introduction to the Ichimoku Cloud
The Ichimoku Cloud, also known as Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, is a comprehensive technical analysis tool developed in Japan. It provides a broad view of the market: trend direction, momentum, and support and resistance levels. "Ichimoku Cloud Signals" takes this power and amplifies it with advanced features.
Key Components of the Ichimoku Cloud
The indicator displays all five familiar Ichimoku lines, along with the "Cloud" (Kumo):
Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line): Calculated as the average of the highest high and lowest low over the past 9 periods. A fast, short-term indicator used as a measure of immediate momentum.
Kijun-sen (Base Line): Calculated as the average of the highest high and lowest low over the past 26 periods. A medium-term reference line serving as a significant support/resistance level.
Senkou Span A (Leading Span A): The average of the Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen, shifted 26 periods forward into the future.
Senkou Span B (Leading Span B): The average of the highest high and lowest low over the past 52 periods, also shifted 26 periods forward into the future.
Kumo (Cloud): The area between Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B. Its color changes: green for an uptrend (when Senkou Span A is above Senkou Span B) and red for a downtrend (when Senkou Span B is above Senkou Span A). The Cloud serves as a dynamic area of support/resistance and a tool for forecasting future trends.
Chikou Span (Lagging Span): The current closing price, shifted 26 periods backward into the past. It serves as a powerful trend confirmation tool.
How the Ichimoku Cloud Works and How to Interpret It
Trend Identification :
- Uptrend (Bullish): The price is above the Cloud. The higher the price is above the Cloud, the stronger the trend.
- Downtrend (Bearish): The price is below the Cloud. The lower the price is below the Cloud, the stronger the trend.
- Range/Consolidation: The price is within the Cloud. This indicates a market without a clear direction or one that is consolidating.
Support and Resistance:
- The Cloud itself acts as a dynamic area of support and resistance. In an uptrend, the Cloud serves as support. In a downtrend, it serves as resistance.
- A thick Cloud indicates stronger support/resistance levels, while a thin Cloud indicates weaker levels.
The Cloud as a Predictive Indicator:
The uniqueness of the Kumo (Cloud) lies in its ability to be shifted 26 periods forward. This part of the Cloud provides forecasts for future support and resistance levels and even suggests expected trend changes (like a "Kumo Twist" – a change in Cloud color), giving you a planning advantage.
Unique Advantages of Ichimoku Cloud Signals:
Ichimoku Cloud Signals takes the classic Ichimoku principles and gives you unprecedented control:
Focused Trend Selection:
Choose whether you want to analyze a bullish (uptrend) or bearish (downtrend) trend. The indicator will focus on the relevant criteria for your selection.
Customizable Trend Confirmation Criteria (8 Criteria):
The indicator relies on 8 key criteria for clear trend confirmation. You can enable or disable each criterion individually based on your trading strategy and desired risk level. Each criterion plays a vital role in confirming the strength of the trend:
- Price position relative to the Cloud (Kumo) (Default: true): Determines the main trend direction and whether it's bullish or bearish.
- Price position relative to Kijun-sen (Base Line) (Default: true): Indicates the medium-term trend and acts as a critical equilibrium level.
- Price position relative to Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line) (Default: false): Provides quick confirmation of current momentum and short-term market changes.
- Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line) / Kijun-sen (Base Line) Crossover (Default: true): A classic signal for momentum change, crucial for identifying entry points.
- Current Cloud trend (Kumo) (Default: false): Cloud color confirms the main trend direction in real-time.
- Projected Future Cloud trend (Kumo) (Default: true): Indicates an expected future change in the Cloud's trend, providing strong visual insight.
- Chikou Span (Lagging Span) position relative to the Cloud (Kumo) (Default: true): Confirms the current trend strength by comparing the price to the Ichimoku 26 periods ago.
- Chikou Span (Lagging Span) position relative to the Price (Default: false): Additional confirmation of trend strength, indicating buyer/seller dominance.
Full Customization of Ichimoku Parameters:
You can change the period lengths for each Ichimoku component, depending on your strategy:
- Conversion Line Length (Default: 9)
- Base Line Length (Default: 26)
- Leading Span Length (Default: 52)
- Cloud Lagging Length (Default: 26)
- Lagging Span Length (Default: 26)
Visual Criteria Table on the Chart:
Get immediate and clear feedback! A visual table is placed on the chart, showing in real-time which of the 8 criteria you have defined are met for your chosen trend. Criteria you have enabled will be highlighted with a blue color and a "➤" symbol, while disabled criteria will appear in a subtle gray shade. For each criterion, the table shows its real-time status with a "✔" symbol if the condition is met and an "✘" symbol if it is not met. This powerful visual tool provides a quick assessment, helps with learning, and allows for strategy optimization at the click of a button.
Precise Criteria Details in the Data Window:
Beyond the visual table, the indicator provides an additional critical layer of detail: for any point on the chart, you can hover over a candle and see in TradingView's Data Window the precise status and values of all eight criteria. For each criterion, you'll see a clear numerical value (1 or 0) indicating whether it's fully met (1) or not met (0). Additionally, you can inspect the exact numerical values of the Ichimoku lines (Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, etc.) at that specific moment. This comprehensive data supports in-depth analysis, strategy debugging, and long-term optimization, providing complete transparency regarding every component of the signal.
Smart and Customizable Alerts:
Ichimoku Cloud Signals provides a powerful alert system to keep you informed of key market movements, so you never miss an opportunity. There are eight unique alerts you can enable in TradingView's alert panel:
Uptrend Entry Alert: Triggers when all of your selected criteria for an uptrend are met on a new candle.
Uptrend Exit Alert: Triggers when one of your selected uptrend criteria is no longer met, signaling a potential exit point.
Downtrend Entry Alert: Triggers when all of your selected criteria for a downtrend are met on a new candle.
Downtrend Exit Alert: Triggers when one of your selected downtrend criteria is no longer met, signaling a potential exit point.
Bullish Crossover Alert: Triggers when the Conversion Line (Tenkan-sen) crosses above the Base Line (Kijun-sen), a classic signal for an upward momentum shift.
Bearish Crossover Alert: Triggers when the Conversion Line (Tenkan-sen) crosses below the Base Line (Kijun-sen), signaling a potential shift to downward momentum.
Bullish Cloud Breakout Alert: Triggers when the price closes above the Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo), indicating a strong bullish trend.
Bearish Cloud Breakout Alert: Triggers when the price closes below the Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo), indicating a strong bearish trend.
Each alert can be independently configured in TradingView's alert panel, allowing you to tailor your notifications to fit your exact trading strategy and risk management preferences.
Summary:
Ichimoku Cloud Signals is an essential tool for TradingView traders seeking control, clarity, and precision. It combines the power of the classic Ichimoku Cloud indicator with advanced customization capabilities, a convenient visual table, and clear signals, empowering you to make informed trading decisions and stay focused on managing your positions.

ATAI Volume analysis with price action V 1.00ATAI Volume Analysis with Price Action
1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
ATAI Volume Analysis with Price Action is a composite indicator designed for TradingView. It combines per‑side volume data —that is, how much buying and selling occurs during each bar—with standard price‑structure elements such as swings, trend lines and support/resistance. By blending these elements the script aims to help a trader understand which side is in control, whether a breakout is genuine, when markets are potentially exhausted and where liquidity providers might be active.
The indicator is built around TradingView’s up/down volume feed accessed via the TradingView/ta/10 library. The following excerpt from the script illustrates how this feed is configured:
import TradingView/ta/10 as tvta
// Determine lower timeframe string based on user choice and chart resolution
string lower_tf_breakout = use_custom_tf_input ? custom_tf_input :
timeframe.isseconds ? "1S" :
timeframe.isintraday ? "1" :
timeframe.isdaily ? "5" : "60"
// Request up/down volume (both positive)
= tvta.requestUpAndDownVolume(lower_tf_breakout)
Lower‑timeframe selection. If you do not specify a custom lower timeframe, the script chooses a default based on your chart resolution: 1 second for second charts, 1 minute for intraday charts, 5 minutes for daily charts and 60 minutes for anything longer. Smaller intervals provide a more precise view of buyer and seller flow but cover fewer bars. Larger intervals cover more history at the cost of granularity.
Tick vs. time bars. Many trading platforms offer a tick / intrabar calculation mode that updates an indicator on every trade rather than only on bar close. Turning on one‑tick calculation will give the most accurate split between buy and sell volume on the current bar, but it typically reduces the amount of historical data available. For the highest fidelity in live trading you can enable this mode; for studying longer histories you might prefer to disable it. When volume data is completely unavailable (some instruments and crypto pairs), all modules that rely on it will remain silent and only the price‑structure backbone will operate.
Figure caption, Each panel shows the indicator’s info table for a different volume sampling interval. In the left chart, the parentheses “(5)” beside the buy‑volume figure denote that the script is aggregating volume over five‑minute bars; the center chart uses “(1)” for one‑minute bars; and the right chart uses “(1T)” for a one‑tick interval. These notations tell you which lower timeframe is driving the volume calculations. Shorter intervals such as 1 minute or 1 tick provide finer detail on buyer and seller flow, but they cover fewer bars; longer intervals like five‑minute bars smooth the data and give more history.
Figure caption, The values in parentheses inside the info table come directly from the Breakout — Settings. The first row shows the custom lower-timeframe used for volume calculations (e.g., “(1)”, “(5)”, or “(1T)”)
2. Price‑Structure Backbone
Even without volume, the indicator draws structural features that underpin all other modules. These features are always on and serve as the reference levels for subsequent calculations.
2.1 What it draws
• Pivots: Swing highs and lows are detected using the pivot_left_input and pivot_right_input settings. A pivot high is identified when the high recorded pivot_right_input bars ago exceeds the highs of the preceding pivot_left_input bars and is also higher than (or equal to) the highs of the subsequent pivot_right_input bars; pivot lows follow the inverse logic. The indicator retains only a fixed number of such pivot points per side, as defined by point_count_input, discarding the oldest ones when the limit is exceeded.
• Trend lines: For each side, the indicator connects the earliest stored pivot and the most recent pivot (oldest high to newest high, and oldest low to newest low). When a new pivot is added or an old one drops out of the lookback window, the line’s endpoints—and therefore its slope—are recalculated accordingly.
• Horizontal support/resistance: The highest high and lowest low within the lookback window defined by length_input are plotted as horizontal dashed lines. These serve as short‑term support and resistance levels.
• Ranked labels: If showPivotLabels is enabled the indicator prints labels such as “HH1”, “HH2”, “LL1” and “LL2” near each pivot. The ranking is determined by comparing the price of each stored pivot: HH1 is the highest high, HH2 is the second highest, and so on; LL1 is the lowest low, LL2 is the second lowest. In the case of equal prices the newer pivot gets the better rank. Labels are offset from price using ½ × ATR × label_atr_multiplier, with the ATR length defined by label_atr_len_input. A dotted connector links each label to the candle’s wick.
2.2 Key settings
• length_input: Window length for finding the highest and lowest values and for determining trend line endpoints. A larger value considers more history and will generate longer trend lines and S/R levels.
• pivot_left_input, pivot_right_input: Strictness of swing confirmation. Higher values require more bars on either side to form a pivot; lower values create more pivots but may include minor swings.
• point_count_input: How many pivots are kept in memory on each side. When new pivots exceed this number the oldest ones are discarded.
• label_atr_len_input and label_atr_multiplier: Determine how far pivot labels are offset from the bar using ATR. Increasing the multiplier moves labels further away from price.
• Styling inputs for trend lines, horizontal lines and labels (color, width and line style).
Figure caption, The chart illustrates how the indicator’s price‑structure backbone operates. In this daily example, the script scans for bars where the high (or low) pivot_right_input bars back is higher (or lower) than the preceding pivot_left_input bars and higher or lower than the subsequent pivot_right_input bars; only those bars are marked as pivots.
These pivot points are stored and ranked: the highest high is labelled “HH1”, the second‑highest “HH2”, and so on, while lows are marked “LL1”, “LL2”, etc. Each label is offset from the price by half of an ATR‑based distance to keep the chart clear, and a dotted connector links the label to the actual candle.
The red diagonal line connects the earliest and latest stored high pivots, and the green line does the same for low pivots; when a new pivot is added or an old one drops out of the lookback window, the end‑points and slopes adjust accordingly. Dashed horizontal lines mark the highest high and lowest low within the current lookback window, providing visual support and resistance levels. Together, these elements form the structural backbone that other modules reference, even when volume data is unavailable.
3. Breakout Module
3.1 Concept
This module confirms that a price break beyond a recent high or low is supported by a genuine shift in buying or selling pressure. It requires price to clear the highest high (“HH1”) or lowest low (“LL1”) and, simultaneously, that the winning side shows a significant volume spike, dominance and ranking. Only when all volume and price conditions pass is a breakout labelled.
3.2 Inputs
• lookback_break_input : This controls the number of bars used to compute moving averages and percentiles for volume. A larger value smooths the averages and percentiles but makes the indicator respond more slowly.
• vol_mult_input : The “spike” multiplier; the current buy or sell volume must be at least this multiple of its moving average over the lookback window to qualify as a breakout.
• rank_threshold_input (0–100) : Defines a volume percentile cutoff: the current buyer/seller volume must be in the top (100−threshold)%(100−threshold)% of all volumes within the lookback window. For example, if set to 80, the current volume must be in the top 20 % of the lookback distribution.
• ratio_threshold_input (0–1) : Specifies the minimum share of total volume that the buyer (for a bullish breakout) or seller (for bearish) must hold on the current bar; the code also requires that the cumulative buyer volume over the lookback window exceeds the seller volume (and vice versa for bearish cases).
• use_custom_tf_input / custom_tf_input : When enabled, these inputs override the automatic choice of lower timeframe for up/down volume; otherwise the script selects a sensible default based on the chart’s timeframe.
• Label appearance settings : Separate options control the ATR-based offset length, offset multiplier, label size and colors for bullish and bearish breakout labels, as well as the connector style and width.
3.3 Detection logic
1. Data preparation : Retrieve per‑side volume from the lower timeframe and take absolute values. Build rolling arrays of the last lookback_break_input values to compute simple moving averages (SMAs), cumulative sums and percentile ranks for buy and sell volume.
2. Volume spike: A spike is flagged when the current buy (or, in the bearish case, sell) volume is at least vol_mult_input times its SMA over the lookback window.
3. Dominance test: The buyer’s (or seller’s) share of total volume on the current bar must meet or exceed ratio_threshold_input. In addition, the cumulative sum of buyer volume over the window must exceed the cumulative sum of seller volume for a bullish breakout (and vice versa for bearish). A separate requirement checks the sign of delta: for bullish breakouts delta_breakout must be non‑negative; for bearish breakouts it must be non‑positive.
4. Percentile rank: The current volume must fall within the top (100 – rank_threshold_input) percent of the lookback distribution—ensuring that the spike is unusually large relative to recent history.
5. Price test: For a bullish signal, the closing price must close above the highest pivot (HH1); for a bearish signal, the close must be below the lowest pivot (LL1).
6. Labeling: When all conditions above are satisfied, the indicator prints “Breakout ↑” above the bar (bullish) or “Breakout ↓” below the bar (bearish). Labels are offset using half of an ATR‑based distance and linked to the candle with a dotted connector.
Figure caption, (Breakout ↑ example) , On this daily chart, price pushes above the red trendline and the highest prior pivot (HH1). The indicator recognizes this as a valid breakout because the buyer‑side volume on the lower timeframe spikes above its recent moving average and buyers dominate the volume statistics over the lookback period; when combined with a close above HH1, this satisfies the breakout conditions. The “Breakout ↑” label appears above the candle, and the info table highlights that up‑volume is elevated relative to its 11‑bar average, buyer share exceeds the dominance threshold and money‑flow metrics support the move.
Figure caption, In this daily example, price breaks below the lowest pivot (LL1) and the lower green trendline. The indicator identifies this as a bearish breakout because sell‑side volume is sharply elevated—about twice its 11‑bar average—and sellers dominate both the bar and the lookback window. With the close falling below LL1, the script triggers a Breakout ↓ label and marks the corresponding row in the info table, which shows strong down volume, negative delta and a seller share comfortably above the dominance threshold.
4. Market Phase Module (Volume Only)
4.1 Concept
Not all markets trend; many cycle between periods of accumulation (buying pressure building up), distribution (selling pressure dominating) and neutral behavior. This module classifies the current bar into one of these phases without using ATR , relying solely on buyer and seller volume statistics. It looks at net flows, ratio changes and an OBV‑like cumulative line with dual‑reference (1‑ and 2‑bar) trends. The result is displayed both as on‑chart labels and in a dedicated row of the info table.
4.2 Inputs
• phase_period_len: Number of bars over which to compute sums and ratios for phase detection.
• phase_ratio_thresh : Minimum buyer share (for accumulation) or minimum seller share (for distribution, derived as 1 − phase_ratio_thresh) of the total volume.
• strict_mode: When enabled, both the 1‑bar and 2‑bar changes in each statistic must agree on the direction (strict confirmation); when disabled, only one of the two references needs to agree (looser confirmation).
• Color customisation for info table cells and label styling for accumulation and distribution phases, including ATR length, multiplier, label size, colors and connector styles.
• show_phase_module: Toggles the entire phase detection subsystem.
• show_phase_labels: Controls whether on‑chart labels are drawn when accumulation or distribution is detected.
4.3 Detection logic
The module computes three families of statistics over the volume window defined by phase_period_len:
1. Net sum (buyers minus sellers): net_sum_phase = Σ(buy) − Σ(sell). A positive value indicates a predominance of buyers. The code also computes the differences between the current value and the values 1 and 2 bars ago (d_net_1, d_net_2) to derive up/down trends.
2. Buyer ratio: The instantaneous ratio TF_buy_breakout / TF_tot_breakout and the window ratio Σ(buy) / Σ(total). The current ratio must exceed phase_ratio_thresh for accumulation or fall below 1 − phase_ratio_thresh for distribution. The first and second differences of the window ratio (d_ratio_1, d_ratio_2) determine trend direction.
3. OBV‑like cumulative net flow: An on‑balance volume analogue obv_net_phase increments by TF_buy_breakout − TF_sell_breakout each bar. Its differences over the last 1 and 2 bars (d_obv_1, d_obv_2) provide trend clues.
The algorithm then combines these signals:
• For strict mode , accumulation requires: (a) current ratio ≥ threshold, (b) cumulative ratio ≥ threshold, (c) both ratio differences ≥ 0, (d) net sum differences ≥ 0, and (e) OBV differences ≥ 0. Distribution is the mirror case.
• For loose mode , it relaxes the directional tests: either the 1‑ or the 2‑bar difference needs to agree in each category.
If all conditions for accumulation are satisfied, the phase is labelled “Accumulation” ; if all conditions for distribution are satisfied, it’s labelled “Distribution” ; otherwise the phase is “Neutral” .
4.4 Outputs
• Info table row : Row 8 displays “Market Phase (Vol)” on the left and the detected phase (Accumulation, Distribution or Neutral) on the right. The text colour of both cells matches a user‑selectable palette (typically green for accumulation, red for distribution and grey for neutral).
• On‑chart labels : When show_phase_labels is enabled and a phase persists for at least one bar, the module prints a label above the bar ( “Accum” ) or below the bar ( “Dist” ) with a dashed or dotted connector. The label is offset using ATR based on phase_label_atr_len_input and phase_label_multiplier and is styled according to user preferences.
Figure caption, The chart displays a red “Dist” label above a particular bar, indicating that the accumulation/distribution module identified a distribution phase at that point. The detection is based on seller dominance: during that bar, the net buyer-minus-seller flow and the OBV‑style cumulative flow were trending down, and the buyer ratio had dropped below the preset threshold. These conditions satisfy the distribution criteria in strict mode. The label is placed above the bar using an ATR‑based offset and a dashed connector. By the time of the current bar in the screenshot, the phase indicator shows “Neutral” in the info table—signaling that neither accumulation nor distribution conditions are currently met—yet the historical “Dist” label remains to mark where the prior distribution phase began.
Figure caption, In this example the market phase module has signaled an Accumulation phase. Three bars before the current candle, the algorithm detected a shift toward buyers: up‑volume exceeded its moving average, down‑volume was below average, and the buyer share of total volume climbed above the threshold while the on‑balance net flow and cumulative ratios were trending upwards. The blue “Accum” label anchored below that bar marks the start of the phase; it remains on the chart because successive bars continue to satisfy the accumulation conditions. The info table confirms this: the “Market Phase (Vol)” row still reads Accumulation, and the ratio and sum rows show buyers dominating both on the current bar and across the lookback window.
5. OB/OS Spike Module
5.1 What overbought/oversold means here
In many markets, a rapid extension up or down is often followed by a period of consolidation or reversal. The indicator interprets overbought (OB) conditions as abnormally strong selling risk at or after a price rally and oversold (OS) conditions as unusually strong buying risk after a decline. Importantly, these are not direct trade signals; rather they flag areas where caution or contrarian setups may be appropriate.
5.2 Inputs
• minHits_obos (1–7): Minimum number of oscillators that must agree on an overbought or oversold condition for a label to print.
• syncWin_obos: Length of a small sliding window over which oscillator votes are smoothed by taking the maximum count observed. This helps filter out choppy signals.
• Volume spike criteria: kVolRatio_obos (ratio of current volume to its SMA) and zVolThr_obos (Z‑score threshold) across volLen_obos. Either threshold can trigger a spike.
• Oscillator toggles and periods: Each of RSI, Stochastic (K and D), Williams %R, CCI, MFI, DeMarker and Stochastic RSI can be independently enabled; their periods are adjustable.
• Label appearance: ATR‑based offset, size, colors for OB and OS labels, plus connector style and width.
5.3 Detection logic
1. Directional volume spikes: Volume spikes are computed separately for buyer and seller volumes. A sell volume spike (sellVolSpike) flags a potential OverBought bar, while a buy volume spike (buyVolSpike) flags a potential OverSold bar. A spike occurs when the respective volume exceeds kVolRatio_obos times its simple moving average over the window or when its Z‑score exceeds zVolThr_obos.
2. Oscillator votes: For each enabled oscillator, calculate its overbought and oversold state using standard thresholds (e.g., RSI ≥ 70 for OB and ≤ 30 for OS; Stochastic %K/%D ≥ 80 for OB and ≤ 20 for OS; etc.). Count how many oscillators vote for OB and how many vote for OS.
3. Minimum hits: Apply the smoothing window syncWin_obos to the vote counts using a maximum‑of‑last‑N approach. A candidate bar is only considered if the smoothed OB hit count ≥ minHits_obos (for OverBought) or the smoothed OS hit count ≥ minHits_obos (for OverSold).
4. Tie‑breaking: If both OverBought and OverSold spike conditions are present on the same bar, compare the smoothed hit counts: the side with the higher count is selected; ties default to OverBought.
5. Label printing: When conditions are met, the bar is labelled as “OverBought X/7” above the candle or “OverSold X/7” below it. “X” is the number of oscillators confirming, and the bracket lists the abbreviations of contributing oscillators. Labels are offset from price using half of an ATR‑scaled distance and can optionally include a dotted or dashed connector line.
Figure caption, In this chart the overbought/oversold module has flagged an OverSold signal. A sell‑off from the prior highs brought price down to the lower trend‑line, where the bar marked “OverSold 3/7 DeM” appears. This label indicates that on that bar the module detected a buy‑side volume spike and that at least three of the seven enabled oscillators—in this case including the DeMarker—were in oversold territory. The label is printed below the candle with a dotted connector, signaling that the market may be temporarily exhausted on the downside. After this oversold print, price begins to rebound towards the upper red trend‑line and higher pivot levels.
Figure caption, This example shows the overbought/oversold module in action. In the left‑hand panel you can see the OB/OS settings where each oscillator (RSI, Stochastic, Williams %R, CCI, MFI, DeMarker and Stochastic RSI) can be enabled or disabled, and the ATR length and label offset multiplier adjusted. On the chart itself, price has pushed up to the descending red trendline and triggered an “OverBought 3/7” label. That means the sell‑side volume spiked relative to its average and three out of the seven enabled oscillators were in overbought territory. The label is offset above the candle by half of an ATR and connected with a dashed line, signaling that upside momentum may be overextended and a pause or pullback could follow.
6. Buyer/Seller Trap Module
6.1 Concept
A bull trap occurs when price appears to break above resistance, attracting buyers, but fails to sustain the move and quickly reverses, leaving a long upper wick and trapping late entrants. A bear trap is the opposite: price breaks below support, lures in sellers, then snaps back, leaving a long lower wick and trapping shorts. This module detects such traps by looking for price structure sweeps, order‑flow mismatches and dominance reversals. It uses a scoring system to differentiate risk from confirmed traps.
6.2 Inputs
• trap_lookback_len: Window length used to rank extremes and detect sweeps.
• trap_wick_threshold: Minimum proportion of a bar’s range that must be wick (upper for bull traps, lower for bear traps) to qualify as a sweep.
• trap_score_risk: Minimum aggregated score required to flag a trap risk. (The code defines a trap_score_confirm input, but confirmation is actually based on price reversal rather than a separate score threshold.)
• trap_confirm_bars: Maximum number of bars allowed for price to reverse and confirm the trap. If price does not reverse in this window, the risk label will expire or remain unconfirmed.
• Label settings: ATR length and multiplier for offsetting, size, colours for risk and confirmed labels, and connector style and width. Separate settings exist for bull and bear traps.
• Toggle inputs: show_trap_module and show_trap_labels enable the module and control whether labels are drawn on the chart.
6.3 Scoring logic
The module assigns points to several conditions and sums them to determine whether a trap risk is present. For bull traps, the score is built from the following (bear traps mirror the logic with highs and lows swapped):
1. Sweep (2 points): Price trades above the high pivot (HH1) but fails to close above it and leaves a long upper wick at least trap_wick_threshold × range. For bear traps, price dips below the low pivot (LL1), fails to close below and leaves a long lower wick.
2. Close break (1 point): Price closes beyond HH1 or LL1 without leaving a long wick.
3. Candle/delta mismatch (2 points): The candle closes bullish yet the order flow delta is negative or the seller ratio exceeds 50%, indicating hidden supply. Conversely, a bearish close with positive delta or buyer dominance suggests hidden demand.
4. Dominance inversion (2 points): The current bar’s buyer volume has the highest rank in the lookback window while cumulative sums favor sellers, or vice versa.
5. Low‑volume break (1 point): Price crosses the pivot but total volume is below its moving average.
The total score for each side is compared to trap_score_risk. If the score is high enough, a “Bull Trap Risk” or “Bear Trap Risk” label is drawn, offset from the candle by half of an ATR‑scaled distance using a dashed outline. If, within trap_confirm_bars, price reverses beyond the opposite level—drops back below the high pivot for bull traps or rises above the low pivot for bear traps—the label is upgraded to a solid “Bull Trap” or “Bear Trap” . In this version of the code, there is no separate score threshold for confirmation: the variable trap_score_confirm is unused; confirmation depends solely on a successful price reversal within the specified number of bars.
Figure caption, In this example the trap module has flagged a Bear Trap Risk. Price initially breaks below the most recent low pivot (LL1), but the bar closes back above that level and leaves a long lower wick, suggesting a failed push lower. Combined with a mismatch between the candle direction and the order flow (buyers regain control) and a reversal in volume dominance, the aggregate score exceeds the risk threshold, so a dashed “Bear Trap Risk” label prints beneath the bar. The green and red trend lines mark the current low and high pivot trajectories, while the horizontal dashed lines show the highest and lowest values in the lookback window. If, within the next few bars, price closes decisively above the support, the risk label would upgrade to a solid “Bear Trap” label.
Figure caption, In this example the trap module has identified both ends of a price range. Near the highs, price briefly pushes above the descending red trendline and the recent pivot high, but fails to close there and leaves a noticeable upper wick. That combination of a sweep above resistance and order‑flow mismatch generates a Bull Trap Risk label with a dashed outline, warning that the upside break may not hold. At the opposite extreme, price later dips below the green trendline and the labelled low pivot, then quickly snaps back and closes higher. The long lower wick and subsequent price reversal upgrade the previous bear‑trap risk into a confirmed Bear Trap (solid label), indicating that sellers were caught on a false breakdown. Horizontal dashed lines mark the highest high and lowest low of the lookback window, while the red and green diagonals connect the earliest and latest pivot highs and lows to visualize the range.
7. Sharp Move Module
7.1 Concept
Markets sometimes display absorption or climax behavior—periods when one side steadily gains the upper hand before price breaks out with a sharp move. This module evaluates several order‑flow and volume conditions to anticipate such moves. Users can choose how many conditions must be met to flag a risk and how many (plus a price break) are required for confirmation.
7.2 Inputs
• sharp Lookback: Number of bars in the window used to compute moving averages, sums, percentile ranks and reference levels.
• sharpPercentile: Minimum percentile rank for the current side’s volume; the current buy (or sell) volume must be greater than or equal to this percentile of historical volumes over the lookback window.
• sharpVolMult: Multiplier used in the volume climax check. The current side’s volume must exceed this multiple of its average to count as a climax.
• sharpRatioThr: Minimum dominance ratio (current side’s volume relative to the opposite side) used in both the instant and cumulative dominance checks.
• sharpChurnThr: Maximum ratio of a bar’s range to its ATR for absorption/churn detection; lower values indicate more absorption (large volume in a small range).
• sharpScoreRisk: Minimum number of conditions that must be true to print a risk label.
• sharpScoreConfirm: Minimum number of conditions plus a price break required for confirmation.
• sharpCvdThr: Threshold for cumulative delta divergence versus price change (positive for bullish accumulation, negative for bearish distribution).
• Label settings: ATR length (sharpATRlen) and multiplier (sharpLabelMult) for positioning labels, label size, colors and connector styles for bullish and bearish sharp moves.
• Toggles: enableSharp activates the module; show_sharp_labels controls whether labels are drawn.
7.3 Conditions (six per side)
For each side, the indicator computes six boolean conditions and sums them to form a score:
1. Dominance (instant and cumulative):
– Instant dominance: current buy volume ≥ sharpRatioThr × current sell volume.
– Cumulative dominance: sum of buy volumes over the window ≥ sharpRatioThr × sum of sell volumes (and vice versa for bearish checks).
2. Accumulation/Distribution divergence: Over the lookback window, cumulative delta rises by at least sharpCvdThr while price fails to rise (bullish), or cumulative delta falls by at least sharpCvdThr while price fails to fall (bearish).
3. Volume climax: The current side’s volume is ≥ sharpVolMult × its average and the product of volume and bar range is the highest in the lookback window.
4. Absorption/Churn: The current side’s volume divided by the bar’s range equals the highest value in the window and the bar’s range divided by ATR ≤ sharpChurnThr (indicating large volume within a small range).
5. Percentile rank: The current side’s volume percentile rank is ≥ sharp Percentile.
6. Mirror logic for sellers: The above checks are repeated with buyer and seller roles swapped and the price break levels reversed.
Each condition that passes contributes one point to the corresponding side’s score (0 or 1). Risk and confirmation thresholds are then applied to these scores.
7.4 Scoring and labels
• Risk: If scoreBull ≥ sharpScoreRisk, a “Sharp ↑ Risk” label is drawn above the bar. If scoreBear ≥ sharpScoreRisk, a “Sharp ↓ Risk” label is drawn below the bar.
• Confirmation: A risk label is upgraded to “Sharp ↑” when scoreBull ≥ sharpScoreConfirm and the bar closes above the highest recent pivot (HH1); for bearish cases, confirmation requires scoreBear ≥ sharpScoreConfirm and a close below the lowest pivot (LL1).
• Label positioning: Labels are offset from the candle by ATR × sharpLabelMult (full ATR times multiplier), not half, and may include a dashed or dotted connector line if enabled.
Figure caption, In this chart both bullish and bearish sharp‑move setups have been flagged. Earlier in the range, a “Sharp ↓ Risk” label appears beneath a candle: the sell‑side score met the risk threshold, signaling that the combination of strong sell volume, dominance and absorption within a narrow range suggested a potential sharp decline. The price did not close below the lower pivot, so this label remains a “risk” and no confirmation occurred. Later, as the market recovered and volume shifted back to the buy side, a “Sharp ↑ Risk” label prints above a candle near the top of the channel. Here, buy‑side dominance, cumulative delta divergence and a volume climax aligned, but price has not yet closed above the upper pivot (HH1), so the alert is still a risk rather than a confirmed sharp‑up move.
Figure caption, In this chart a Sharp ↑ label is displayed above a candle, indicating that the sharp move module has confirmed a bullish breakout. Prior bars satisfied the risk threshold — showing buy‑side dominance, positive cumulative delta divergence, a volume climax and strong absorption in a narrow range — and this candle closes above the highest recent pivot, upgrading the earlier “Sharp ↑ Risk” alert to a full Sharp ↑ signal. The green label is offset from the candle with a dashed connector, while the red and green trend lines trace the high and low pivot trajectories and the dashed horizontals mark the highest and lowest values of the lookback window.
8. Market‑Maker / Spread‑Capture Module
8.1 Concept
Liquidity providers often “capture the spread” by buying and selling in almost equal amounts within a very narrow price range. These bars can signal temporary congestion before a move or reflect algorithmic activity. This module flags bars where both buyer and seller volumes are high, the price range is only a few ticks and the buy/sell split remains close to 50%. It helps traders spot potential liquidity pockets.
8.2 Inputs
• scalpLookback: Window length used to compute volume averages.
• scalpVolMult: Multiplier applied to each side’s average volume; both buy and sell volumes must exceed this multiple.
• scalpTickCount: Maximum allowed number of ticks in a bar’s range (calculated as (high − low) / minTick). A value of 1 or 2 captures ultra‑small bars; increasing it relaxes the range requirement.
• scalpDeltaRatio: Maximum deviation from a perfect 50/50 split. For example, 0.05 means the buyer share must be between 45% and 55%.
• Label settings: ATR length, multiplier, size, colors, connector style and width.
• Toggles : show_scalp_module and show_scalp_labels to enable the module and its labels.
8.3 Signal
When, on the current bar, both TF_buy_breakout and TF_sell_breakout exceed scalpVolMult times their respective averages and (high − low)/minTick ≤ scalpTickCount and the buyer share is within scalpDeltaRatio of 50%, the module prints a “Spread ↔” label above the bar. The label uses the same ATR offset logic as other modules and draws a connector if enabled.
Figure caption, In this chart the spread‑capture module has identified a potential liquidity pocket. Buyer and seller volumes both spiked above their recent averages, yet the candle’s range measured only a couple of ticks and the buy/sell split stayed close to 50 %. This combination met the module’s criteria, so it printed a grey “Spread ↔” label above the bar. The red and green trend lines link the earliest and latest high and low pivots, and the dashed horizontals mark the highest high and lowest low within the current lookback window.
9. Money Flow Module
9.1 Concept
To translate volume into a monetary measure, this module multiplies each side’s volume by the closing price. It tracks buying and selling system money default currency on a per-bar basis and sums them over a chosen period. The difference between buy and sell currencies (Δ$) shows net inflow or outflow.
9.2 Inputs
• mf_period_len_mf: Number of bars used for summing buy and sell dollars.
• Label appearance settings: ATR length, multiplier, size, colors for up/down labels, and connector style and width.
• Toggles: Use enableMoneyFlowLabel_mf and showMFLabels to control whether the module and its labels are displayed.
9.3 Calculations
• Per-bar money: Buy $ = TF_buy_breakout × close; Sell $ = TF_sell_breakout × close. Their difference is Δ$ = Buy $ − Sell $.
• Summations: Over mf_period_len_mf bars, compute Σ Buy $, Σ Sell $ and ΣΔ$ using math.sum().
• Info table entries: Rows 9–13 display these values as texts like “↑ USD 1234 (1M)” or “ΣΔ USD −5678 (14)”, with colors reflecting whether buyers or sellers dominate.
• Money flow status: If Δ$ is positive the bar is marked “Money flow in” ; if negative, “Money flow out” ; if zero, “Neutral”. The cumulative status is similarly derived from ΣΔ.Labels print at the bar that changes the sign of ΣΔ, offset using ATR × label multiplier and styled per user preferences.
Figure caption, The chart illustrates a steady rise toward the highest recent pivot (HH1) with price riding between a rising green trend‑line and a red trend‑line drawn through earlier pivot highs. A green Money flow in label appears above the bar near the top of the channel, signaling that net dollar flow turned positive on this bar: buy‑side dollar volume exceeded sell‑side dollar volume, pushing the cumulative sum ΣΔ$ above zero. In the info table, the “Money flow (bar)” and “Money flow Σ” rows both read In, confirming that the indicator’s money‑flow module has detected an inflow at both bar and aggregate levels, while other modules (pivots, trend lines and support/resistance) remain active to provide structural context.
In this example the Money Flow module signals a net outflow. Price has been trending downward: successive high pivots form a falling red trend‑line and the low pivots form a descending green support line. When the latest bar broke below the previous low pivot (LL1), both the bar‑level and cumulative net dollar flow turned negative—selling volume at the close exceeded buying volume and pushed the cumulative Δ$ below zero. The module reacts by printing a red “Money flow out” label beneath the candle; the info table confirms that the “Money flow (bar)” and “Money flow Σ” rows both show Out, indicating sustained dominance of sellers in this period.
10. Info Table
10.1 Purpose
When enabled, the Info Table appears in the lower right of your chart. It summarises key values computed by the indicator—such as buy and sell volume, delta, total volume, breakout status, market phase, and money flow—so you can see at a glance which side is dominant and which signals are active.
10.2 Symbols
• ↑ / ↓ — Up (↑) denotes buy volume or money; down (↓) denotes sell volume or money.
• MA — Moving average. In the table it shows the average value of a series over the lookback period.
• Σ (Sigma) — Cumulative sum over the chosen lookback period.
• Δ (Delta) — Difference between buy and sell values.
• B / S — Buyer and seller share of total volume, expressed as percentages.
• Ref. Price — Reference price for breakout calculations, based on the latest pivot.
• Status — Indicates whether a breakout condition is currently active (True) or has failed.
10.3 Row definitions
1. Up volume / MA up volume – Displays current buy volume on the lower timeframe and its moving average over the lookback period.
2. Down volume / MA down volume – Shows current sell volume and its moving average; sell values are formatted in red for clarity.
3. Δ / ΣΔ – Lists the difference between buy and sell volume for the current bar and the cumulative delta volume over the lookback period.
4. Σ / MA Σ (Vol/MA) – Total volume (buy + sell) for the bar, with the ratio of this volume to its moving average; the right cell shows the average total volume.
5. B/S ratio – Buy and sell share of the total volume: current bar percentages and the average percentages across the lookback period.
6. Buyer Rank / Seller Rank – Ranks the bar’s buy and sell volumes among the last (n) bars; lower rank numbers indicate higher relative volume.
7. Σ Buy / Σ Sell – Sum of buy and sell volumes over the lookback window, indicating which side has traded more.
8. Breakout UP / DOWN – Shows the breakout thresholds (Ref. Price) and whether the breakout condition is active (True) or has failed.
9. Market Phase (Vol) – Reports the current volume‑only phase: Accumulation, Distribution or Neutral.
10. Money Flow – The final rows display dollar amounts and status:
– ↑ USD / Σ↑ USD – Buy dollars for the current bar and the cumulative sum over the money‑flow period.
– ↓ USD / Σ↓ USD – Sell dollars and their cumulative sum.
– Δ USD / ΣΔ USD – Net dollar difference (buy minus sell) for the bar and cumulatively.
– Money flow (bar) – Indicates whether the bar’s net dollar flow is positive (In), negative (Out) or neutral.
– Money flow Σ – Shows whether the cumulative net dollar flow across the chosen period is positive, negative or neutral.
The chart above shows a sequence of different signals from the indicator. A Bull Trap Risk appears after price briefly pushes above resistance but fails to hold, then a green Accum label identifies an accumulation phase. An upward breakout follows, confirmed by a Money flow in print. Later, a Sharp ↓ Risk warns of a possible sharp downturn; after price dips below support but quickly recovers, a Bear Trap label marks a false breakdown. The highlighted info table in the center summarizes key metrics at that moment, including current and average buy/sell volumes, net delta, total volume versus its moving average, breakout status (up and down), market phase (volume), and bar‑level and cumulative money flow (In/Out).
11. Conclusion & Final Remarks
This indicator was developed as a holistic study of market structure and order flow. It brings together several well‑known concepts from technical analysis—breakouts, accumulation and distribution phases, overbought and oversold extremes, bull and bear traps, sharp directional moves, market‑maker spread bars and money flow—into a single Pine Script tool. Each module is based on widely recognized trading ideas and was implemented after consulting reference materials and example strategies, so you can see in real time how these concepts interact on your chart.
A distinctive feature of this indicator is its reliance on per‑side volume: instead of tallying only total volume, it separately measures buy and sell transactions on a lower time frame. This approach gives a clearer view of who is in control—buyers or sellers—and helps filter breakouts, detect phases of accumulation or distribution, recognize potential traps, anticipate sharp moves and gauge whether liquidity providers are active. The money‑flow module extends this analysis by converting volume into currency values and tracking net inflow or outflow across a chosen window.
Although comprehensive, this indicator is intended solely as a guide. It highlights conditions and statistics that many traders find useful, but it does not generate trading signals or guarantee results. Ultimately, you remain responsible for your positions. Use the information presented here to inform your analysis, combine it with other tools and risk‑management techniques, and always make your own decisions when trading.
Williams Fractals Dynamic Horizontal LinesWilliams Fractals with Dynamic Horizontal Lines
Overview
This script identifies Williams Fractals (support and resistance points) on any chart and automatically draws horizontal lines at those fractal levels.
The lines extend right and disappear when price breaks them — giving a clean and real-time view of key support and resistance levels.
Features
Detects upward fractals (potential resistances).
Detects downward fractals (potential supports).
Draws horizontal lines at each fractal point.
Automatically deletes a line when:
Price closes above a resistance.
Price closes below a support.
Clean and lightweight — minimal performance impact.
Inputs
Setting Description Default
Periods (n) Number of candles on each side required to confirm a fractal (minimum 2). 2
How It Works
Fractal Detection:
An up fractal is confirmed when a candle has the highest high compared to its neighbors.
A down fractal is confirmed when a candle has the lowest low compared to its neighbors.
Custom logic supports different "ties" — not just strict greater-than or less-than comparisons.
Drawing Lines:
When an up fractal is detected → a red horizontal resistance line is drawn.
When a down fractal is detected → a green horizontal support line is drawn.
Lines are drawn starting at the fractal candle and extend right across the chart.
Dynamic Line Deletion:
Every new candle is checked:
If high > resistance line → delete that resistance line.
If low < support line → delete that support line.
Only unbroken lines are kept on the chart, providing live, updated support/resistance zones.
Visual Elements
Up Fractal: 🡅 Triangular marker (teal color) above the fractal candle.
Down Fractal: 🡇 Triangular marker (red color) below the fractal candle.
Resistance Line: Red horizontal line.
Support Line: Green horizontal line.
Technical Details
Version: Pine Script v6
Arrays Used:
To store and manage active lines (line arrays).
To track the price associated with each line (float arrays).
Error Handling:
Backward iteration is handled using a while loop instead of a for loop to comply with Pine Script restrictions.
Offset Handling:
Fractal markers are plotted with an offset of -n bars for visual alignment.
Possible Enhancements (Future Ideas)
Sensitivity Settings: Allow a small margin (buffer) to define breakouts.
Extend Options: Let users choose between extending "infinite" or "limited" bars.
Custom Alerts: Generate alerts when fractal levels are broken.
Multi-timeframe Support: Detect fractals from higher timeframes on lower timeframe charts.
Example Usage
Swing Trading:
Use the fractal lines to identify and react to key breakouts or breakdowns dynamically.
Intraday Trading:
Spot live support/resistance on smaller timeframes for quick trades.
Trend Reversal Spotting:
Notice when a major fractal level is broken, possibly indicating trend changes.
