[DarkTrader] Swing OrderflowSwing Orderflow is a indicator that helps traders detect key swing highs and lows in price action. It is designed to enhance your charting experience by highlighting important support and resistance levels while providing clear visual cues on market structure changes. By tracking swing pivots and price trends, this indicator enables traders to make more informed decisions regarding potential entry and exit points in the market.
This indicator is inspired by @Fractalyst Indicator :
The core functionality of the script revolves around detecting swing highs and lows based on a customizable swing period. It identifies these pivots by comparing price movements over a specific time window, marking the points where price either peaks or bottoms out. Swing highs are plotted as resistance levels when the price breaks above a certain threshold, while swing lows are plotted as support levels when price breaks below it. These key points are represented with dotted lines and labels on the chart for easy reference.
Indicator In Use :
Swing High Calculation
A swing high occurs when the high of a specific bar (or candle) is greater than the highs of the surrounding bars within a defined range (called the swing period).
Function used to find the highest price within a specified range : ta.highest(period)
If the current price is greater than the highest price of this period, it's marked as a potential swing high.
A swing high generally represents a resistance level, where the price has reached a peak before declining.
Swing Low Calculation
A swing low occurs when the low of a specific bar is lower than the lows of the surrounding bars within the swing period.
Function used to find the lowest price within a specified range : ta.lowest(period)
If the current price is lower than this lowest price, it's identified as a swing low.
Swing lows represent support levels, where the price reaches a bottom before bouncing back.
These points are plotted on the chart, and the script also tracks whether price breaks above the swing high or below the swing low to determine trends or possible reversals.
BSL (Buy Side Liquidity)
BSL represents the Buy Side Liquidity, where traders are expected to have their buy orders (usually stop-loss orders for short positions).
When the price reaches a swing high, traders who are short may have stop orders placed above this level. Once these levels are breached, the script identifies this as a liquidity area where stop orders get triggered, causing potential upward price movement.
The script marks the swing high with a "BSL" label and line to indicate this key resistance and liquidity zone.
SSL (Sell Side Liquidity)
SSL refers to the Sell Side Liquidity, where traders place sell orders (usually stop-loss orders for long positions).
Swing lows are important levels where traders holding long positions place their stop orders. When the price drops below a swing low, it triggers these sell orders, causing potential downward price movement.
The script marks the swing low with an "SSL" label and line, signaling this key support and liquidity zone.
In essence, BSL and SSL represent areas where liquidity is pooled, making them critical points in price action. These liquidity areas, when breached, often lead to aggressive price moves, allowing traders to anticipate trends.

OrderFlow [Probabilities] | FractalystWhat's the indicator's purpose and functionality?
The indicator is designed to incorporate probabilities with buyside and sellside liquidity, as well as premium and discount ranges within the market. It also provides traders with a multi-timeframe functionality for observing liquidity levels and probabilities across two timeframes without the need to manually switch between them.
These levels are often used in smart money trading concepts for identifying key areas of interest, such as potential reversal points, areas of accumulation or distribution, and zones of high liquidity.
----
What's the purpose of these levels? What are the underlying calculations?
1. Understanding Swing highs and Swing Lows
Swing High: A Swing High is formed when there is a high with 2 lower highs to the left and right.
Swing Low: A Swing Low is formed when there is a low with 2 higher lows to the left and right.
2. Understanding the purpose and the underlying calculations behind Buyside , Sellside and Equilibrium levels.
3. Identifying Discount and Premium Zones.
4. Importance of Risk-Reward in Premium and Discount Ranges
----
How does the script calculate probabilities?
The script calculates the probability of each liquidity level individually. Here's the breakdown:
1. Upon the formation of a new range, the script waits for the price to reach and tap into equilibrium or the 50% level. Status: "⏸" - Inactive
2. Once equilibrium is tapped into, the equilibrium status becomes activated and it waits for either liquidity side to be hit. Status: "▶" - Active
3. If the buyside liquidity is hit, the script adds to the count of successful buyside liquidity occurrences. Similarly, if the sellside is tapped, it records successful sellside liquidity occurrences.
5. Finally, the number of successful occurrences for each side is divided by the overall count individually to calculate the range probabilities.
Note: The calculations are performed independently for each directional range. A range is considered bearish if the previous breakout was through a sellside liquidity. Conversely, a range is considered bullish if the most recent breakout was through a buyside liquidity.
----
What does the multi-timeframe functionality offer?
Enabling and selecting a higher timeframe in the indicator's user-input settings allows you to access not only the current range information but also the liquidity sides, status, price levels, and probabilities of a higher timeframe without needing to switch between timeframes and mark up the levels manually.
----
What are the multi-timeframe underlying calculations?
The script uses the same calculations (mentioned above) and requests the data such as price levels, bar time, probabilities and booleans from the user-input timeframe.

----
How to use the indicator?
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
2. Choose the pair you want to analyze/trade.
3. Enable the HTF in user-input settings and choose a timeframe as for your higher timeframe bias.
4. (Important) : Ensure that the probabilities on both timeframes are aligned in one direction. If not, switch between timeframes until you find a pair of timeframes that are in line with each other and have higher probabilities on one liquidity side.
For Swing traders:
Use Hourly timeframes (1H/2H/4H/8H/12H) as your current timeframe and 1D/3D/1W/2W for your higher timeframe (HTF).
Entry: Hourly Equilibrium level. (Limit order)
Stoploss: Place it on the side where the probability is lower than 50%.
Break-even level/TP1: Hourly breakout of the liquidity.
TP2: Target the Higher Timeframe (HTF) liquidity level where the probability is higher than 50%.
2H/1D COINBASE:BTCUSD
For Day traders:
Use minutely timeframes (5m/15m/30m) as your current timeframe and 1H/2H/4H/8H/12H for your higher timeframe (HTF).
Entry: Minutely Equilibrium level. (Limit order)
Stoploss: Place it on the side where the probability is lower than 50%.
Break-even level/TP1: Minutely breakout of the liquidity.
TP2: Target the Higher Timeframe (HTF) liquidity level where the probability is higher than 50%.
1H/5m COINBASE:BTCUSD

Rug Pull DetectorOverview
Have you ever wondered why tickers have such erratic movements that seemingly come from nowhere? These "rug pull" events happen quite often and can catch even the most seasoned traders off-guard.
Unlike most other indicators which rely on historical data to make inferences about future price movements, the Rug Pull Detector (RPD) enables you to take a glimpse into market makers' delta-neutral hedging in real-time.
Market makers by nature must be delta-neutral which means that they cannot position themselves to profit from providing liquidity (either long or short). Liquidity provided to the short or long side must end up in a stock purchase or sale to neutralize the trade.
Volatile movements in a ticker's price movement most often result directly after a period of extremely low volatility. These volatile movements are very often "rug pulled" which ends up reverting the ticker back to the price at which the event first occurred. RPD shows these events in real-time. This knowledge can be used to help determine the most probable near-future direction a ticker will gravitate towards after a rug pull event occurs.
Usage
RPD works on any ticker and on any timeframe and can be used as a tool in determining an exit price for a trade. Vertical shading on the chart indicates a warning signal that a rug pull event may be about to kick-off. Once a rug pull event has occurred and is confirmed, a blue label will appear on the chart with a price. A line is then drawn from the bar at which the event occurred and is extended to each subsequent bar until the price is reached once more; thus concluding the event. Furthermore, red or green shading will be present to easily visually identify rug pull events on the chart and whether they are risks to the downside (red) or upside (green). RPD is broken down into 2 main types of events:
Active Event - These events are characterized by a red or green shading and a blue price line.
Dormant Event - These events do not have shading but are still identifiable via a blue price line. Active events that are superseded by newer events will become dormant.
Active events tend to have a higher chance to return to the initial price point and tend to arrive there quicker.
Dormant events have a slightly lower chance to return to the initial price point and may take longer to arrive there.
Please note:
This indicator has no way of telling the exact amount of time that will pass before the ticker returns to the identified price; however, in more cases than not - the ticker will return to that price within a reasonable amount of time relative to the timeframe you are viewing.
There is a small chance any single event will never conclude. These are anomalies and do occur on occasion.
Using RPD alongside tools such as the RSI, Anchored VWAP, or other trend-based indicators will help determine when the ticker's price might be about to pivot and head back towards the identified price point.

EQ LEVELS / EquilibriumWhat is it, How to use it, How to adjust the settings? What Calculates EQ Level?
What is it?
EQ, Equilibrium, In the money market, the term "equilibrium" or "equilibrium" refers to the point at which supply and demand are equalised. At this point, money supply and money demand meet each other and interest rates stabilise at a certain level. Equilibrium in the money market reflects the overall financial balance in the economy
According to What Calculates the EQ Level?
Normally, there may be many different alternatives to this, but I have printed the result on the screen by adding the highest and lowest levels of the prices and averaging them to think of a simple solution.
How to use it?
I have added 4 timeframes for both long-term investors and traders to use. If you want to use which timeframe, you can select the timeframe you want from the settings and see it on the chart. For those who want to trade, my suggestion is to follow the daily eq levels and of course look at the weekly eq levels. The weekly eq level can give you an idea of what kind of price range the next day may be in.
How to Make Settings?
When you first add the indicator to the chart, it draws a line. You change it to a circle or plus in the settings, it will look like the picture I shared. I also share open source code and can make changes in the code.

Mason’s Line IndicatorThe Macon Strategy is an idea conceived by Didier Darcet , co-founder of Gavekal Intelligence Software. Inspired by the Water Level, an instrument used by masons to check the horizontality or verticality of a wall. This method aims to measure the psychology of financial markets and determine if the market is balanced or tilting towards an unfavorable side, focusing on the behavioral risk of markets rather than economic or political factors.
The strategy examines the satisfaction and frustration of investors based on the distance between the low and high points of the market over a period of one year. Investor satisfaction is influenced by the current price of the index and the path taken to reach that price. The distance to the low point provides satisfaction, while the distance to the high point generates frustration. The balance between the two dictates investors’ desire to hold or sell their positions.
To refine the strategy, it is important to consider the opinion of a group of investors rather than just one individual. The members of a hypothetical investor club invest successively throughout the past year. The overall satisfaction of the market on a given day is a democratic expression of all participants.
If the overall satisfaction is below 50%, investors are frustrated and sell their positions. If it is above, they are satisfied and hold their positions. The position of the group of investors relative to the high and low points represents the position of the air bubble in the water level. Market performance is measured day by day based on participant satisfaction or dissatisfaction.
In conclusion, memory, emotions, and decision-making ability are closely linked, and their interaction influences investment decisions. The Macon Strategy highlights the importance of the behavioral dimension in understanding financial market dynamics. By studying investor behavior through this strategy, it is possible to better anticipate market trends and make more informed investment decisions.
Presentation of the Mason’s Line Indicator:
The main strategy of this indicator is to measure the average satisfaction of investors based on the position of an imaginary air bubble in a tube delimited by the market’s highs and lows over a given period. After calculating the satisfaction level, it is then normalized between 0 and 1, and a moving average can be used to visualize trends.
Key features:
Calculation of highs and lows over a user-defined period.
Determination of the position of the air bubble in the tube based on the closing price.
Calculation of the average satisfaction of investors over a selected period.
Normalization of the average satisfaction between 0 and 1.
Visualization of normalized or non-normalized average satisfaction levels, as well as their corresponding moving averages.
User parameters:
Period for min and max (days) : Sets the period over which highs and lows will be calculated (1 to 365 days).
Period for average satisfaction (days) : Determines the period over which the average satisfaction of investors will be calculated (1 to 365 days).
Period for SMA : Sets the period of the simple moving average used to smooth the data (1 to 1000 days).
Bubble_value : Adjustment of the air bubble value, ranging from 0 to 1, in increments of 0.025.
Normalized average satisfaction : Option to choose whether to display the normalized or non-normalized average satisfaction.
Please note that the Mason’s Line Indicator is not a guarantee of future market performance and should be used in conjunction with proper risk management. Always ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the indicator’s methodology and its limitations before making any investment decisions. Additionally, past performance is not indicative of future results.

Overview
Equilibrium is a tool designed to measure the buying & selling pressure in the market. It is depicted as a “pressure gauge” that automatically adjusts as new candles are formed, providing a real-time indication of who's on top right now, buyers or sellers?
Background
Supply & demand is considered to be the main driving force of our modern economies, where the interaction between the two parties(sellers & buyers) leads to the determination of the fair price for a given product. Stock markets are no exception, they operate very much based around the idea of supply & demand.
In simple terms, supply refers to the availability of a product, and demand is the willingness of consumers to buy that product at a given price. It is obvious that different vendors may sell the same product at slightly different prices, and similarly, different customers may choose to buy the same product from different vendors at varying prices. The idea is that the price is allowed to fluctuate from time to time, but in a free & fair market, the price will eventually settle down to a value that makes both the parties happy. Such a state is known as the “Price-Equilibrium”, and this process is also referred to as the market mechanism.
This is the basic assumption around which this tool is based, the market is always trying to move towards a state of equilibrium.
Calculations
This tool takes a simplistic approach to estimate the degree of imbalance between buyers & sellers, here’s a brief summary of how the pressure is calculated:
- We compute the total lengths of red & green candles for a given period, i.e. price range multiplied by the volume for that candle.
- Then the distribution of each type of candle is calculated.
- Assuming more red candles denote more selling pressure, and green candles denote buying pressure, the gauge is populated cell by cell.
- As the pressure on one side increases, the intensity of the cell color also increases, signifying the extent to which one side is dominating.
How to use it
- The indicator is designed as a pressure gauge that moves up(vertical alignment) or to the right(horizontal alignment) as the buying pressure increases, and moves down or to the left as the selling pressure increases. How it is to be used & applied, that completely depends on your trading methodology. But, the general idea is that we expect the market to be in a state of equilibrium, and if that is not the case the tool will highlight that, and this is also where the opportunity lies to find suitable trades.
- Just by having an idea about who’s dominating the market currently, a trader can also pick sides wisely. Remember, the market is always striving to come back a state of equilibrium, and a slight imbalance can indicate the current trend, and more importantly, who’s more likely to make the next move.
User Settings
The tool offers some minimal configurations for the end user:
- You can choose to display the actual percentage value in the gauge(Show Text).
- You can adjust colors that denote buyers & sellers.
- You can change the layout of gauge, default is vertical(right side of the screen).
- Last, and most important, you can adjust the number of candles to traverse for calculating the pressure. Default is 50, can go upto 1000.
Supply, Demand and Equilibrium Zones, Interactive by DGTSupply, Demand and Equilibrium Zones, Interactive
The law of supply and demand is a theory that explains the interaction between the sellers of an asset and the buyers for that asset. The theory defines the relationship between the price of a given asset and the willingness of traders to either buy or sell it. Generally, as price increases, traders are willing to supply more and demand less and vice versa when the price falls.
Simply said, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded, and from the seller's perspective, the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied
Equilibrium zones are the price levels where both selling and buying trading activity is high, both sellers and buyres are interested at that price levels. More correctly, there is a great deal of activity on both the buy and sell side and the market stays at that price level for a great deal of time. Supply and demand are balanced or in equilibrium
Supply and Demand Shifts may occur when institutional investors step in, a change in both price and quantity demanded from one point to another
This experimental study attempts to presend Supply, Demand and Equilibrium Zones by measuring traded volume at all price levels on the market over a specified time period. Then the result is plotted as horizontal zones on the finacial isntrumnet's chart that highlights supply, demand and equilibrium zones at specific price levels
It is important for supply, demand and equilibrium zones to understand that time is always a dimension on charts. The quantity demanded or supplied, found along the horizontal axis, is always measured in traded volume of the asset over a given time interval. Longer or shorter time intervals can influence the levels of supply, demand and equilibrium zones
The study is made interactive, which requires the users to select two points on the chart, by simply clicking on the chart. In case the user would like to view different range then just dragging the vertical lines will be enough
By increasing/decreasing values for supply and demand zones or equilibrium zones, you will either get the zones enlarged or detect supply and demand shifts or other equilibrium zones
It is adviced to use this study in conjuction with a Volume Profile study, such as Volume-Profile-and-Volume-Indicator , Volume-Profile-Custom-Range , Anchored-Volume-Profile , and Price-Action-Support-Resistance , where volume profiles presents trading activities at specific price levels and Supply and Demand Zones can be treated as Value Area (they are not exact same but similar) for Volume Profiles

Ichimoku Cloud OscillatorThis script shows Ichimoku values in a different manner. While studying Ichimoku one thing stuck out to me and that is that the Kijun-Sen line is considered to be the equilibrium of the market, it acts like a magnet and price always returns to it. Taking this into account I made a script that plots the distance from equilibrium as an oscillator.
With that value being an oscillator it allows for some analysis that would have been harder to do looking at the normal ichimoku chart. For example smoothing the value and comparing the distance to the average distance to see if the market reached an extremity (too far from equilibrium). I added a bollinger band for those who are interested in analysing the value in that way but in my experience I do not use it except for noticing if market spiked outside of the band (green and red dots).
It is advised to use this oscillator as a trend analysis tool the same way you would use a money flow. Below a breakdown of current features
- Disequilibrium1: The white sharp wave is the raw distance from Kijun with settings to smooth it out using a WMA
- Disequilibrium2: The blue smooth wave is the smooth distance from Kijun with settings to smooth it further out using a WMA
- Yellow line: The distance of Tenkan-Sen from Kijun-Sen which in alot of ichimoku strategys act as a trend filter or a crossover as market change.
- Green and red zone: The slope of the kumo cloud, color coded to see if kumo is red or green. Use it in the same way you would use money flow on market cypher, it is a longer term trend strength indicator and like all smoothed values it lags behind. You can use this to decide which direction to trade in but not as a signal on it's own.
- Bollinger Band: Acts the same way a bollinger band does, use this to analyse the wave structure, especialy the middle line the same way you would use Disequilibrium2, if the waves are a good distance from this line market can be overbought oversold or it is just a good indication that the trend is strong. Outer bands should be your warning bands as the waves tend to jump back to the middle line when touching those.
Would love some feedback on this as I do not think this can be used for divergences but would like to hear some possible patterns/strategys.
My current strategy is noticing an increasing wave after a squeeze (waves keep getting smaller untill a large trend happens, wave no longer goes to middle and keeps expanding). When I notice this I wait for the white wave to enter the blue and touch the mid bollinger line (small pullback during strong trend) and open a trade in the direction of the trend. I use the green and red zone to decide if the long term direction tells the same to get confluence.
Volatility Funnel v2Using the contracting phase of what are basically bollinger bands and some fancy coloring, this indicator draws funnels to which show tightening ranges and doesn't take up too much screen space unless you want it to.
There is a smoothing option if you're into that.
Enjoy!!!
TradeChartist Volatizer™TradeChartist Volatizer (Volatility Visualizer) is an exceptionally well designed script that helps visualize Price Volatility and Momentum with the help of various Visual components including Volatizer Bands and Mean line, Support/Resistance levels, Trade Signals and much more. Volatizer's ability to filter trades based on Volatizer Bands, initial Support/Resistance breach, along with the use of External Filter makes it an extremely functional and a useful indicator in addition to its visually engaging design.

======================================
𝗩𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀
Volatizer Bands comprises of an Upper Band, a Lower Band and a Mean line, that form the important components of this script. These bands are based on consolidation of various factors including comparison of volatility and Higher Time Frame (HTF) Momentum with that of the chart time frame. This helps visualize relative Volatility of the chart's price action in relation to the bands and the mean line. The width and the acceleration of the bands depend upon two of the only user inputs required in this script. They are
Volatizer Length - This is the lookback length required to plot the strength of the price action. This length also determines the Volatizer Levels and Fills that help visualize Volatility and Momentum of the asset observed/traded. Higher the length, longer the trend and higher the Risk:Reward ratio
Sensitivity - Users can choose one of 3 Sensitivity options ( Low , Optimal , High ) to adjust the degree of sensitivity of the Bands' reaction to the price action. High Sensitivity Bands react quicker to the price action based on underlying logic.
Example : 1hr chart of BINANCE:ETHUSDT using 24/High on the left and 24/Low on the right.
𝗩𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝗻
Volatizer mean is a critical component of the Bands as it can determine the nature of the price action based on how the price tests the Volatizer Mean. When the price is extremely volatile or trending and when it is influenced by Bull or Bear momentum, the Mean line can be the magnet for Pull Backs or Throw Backs. Mean Touch Points can be enabled or disabled from the settings.
Example - 1hr chart of BINANCE:ETHUSDT clearly showing the use of the Mean line and Orange Mean Touch Points.
Example - 1hr chart of BINANCE:ETHUSDT with Volatizer Levels/Fills enabled on the left and disabled on the right.
𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁/𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘀
Volatizer plots automatic Initial Support/Resistance Levels when this option is enabled. This is based on the user input of Length and Sensitivity.
Example - 1hr chart of BINANCE:BTCUSDT with Initial Support/Resistance Levels enabled. Initial range for support/resistance is shown on the chart.
𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗭𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀
Volatizer uses a clever logic that helps detect volatility exhaustion prices and plots $ signs to help the trader take profits or move stop loss levels to secure gains or to exit trade position. This option can be enabled or disabled by checking or unchecking Display Profit Taking Zones . These zones can also be important support/resistance zones based on the trend volatility and momentum.
Example - 1hr chart of BINANCE:BTCUSDT (Setting - 24/Low) showing $ signs to help traders. (Green $ for Bull Zones and Red $ for Bear Zones)
𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀
The script can also be used to plot Trade Signals automatically with or without the use of Trade Filters. When the price shows bullish or bearish momentum when the price crosses above or below the mean, Bull or Bear plot appears on the chart to signal potential trend change. These signals can be filtered using one, two or all three filters listed below.
Filter Initial S/R Level Breakouts - Plots Signals only when the initial Support/Resistance levels get breached.
Filter using Volatizer Bands - Plots Signals only when the Upper/Lower bands get breached.
External Filter - Plots Signals only if crossover/breakout criteria of External Filter (Oscillatory or Non-Oscillatory Signal) is satisfied.
Example Charts for Trade Signals/ Filters using 1hr chart of NASDAQ:AMD (Setting - 24/Optimal)
1. Trade Signals without any filter
2. Trade Signals using Initial S/R Level Breakout Filter only
3. Trade Signals using Volatizer Bands Filter only
4. Trade Signals using External Filter - MDO (144) with 0 Filter values along with other 2 built in filters
𝗔𝗹𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘀
Alerts can be created using Trading View's Alert Creation box by choosing one of the following Volatizer Conditions.
Long - Alerts when Bull signal is generated. Use Once Per Bar Close
Long Take Profit - Alerts when $ signs are plotted during Bull Zone. Use Once Per Bar
Short - Alerts when Bear signal is generated. Use Once Per Bar Close
Short Take Profit - Alerts when $ signs are plotted during Bear Zone. Use Once Per Bar
Test of Mean - Alerts when price tests the Volatizer Mean line. Use Once Per Bar
Note: The indicator doesn't repaint even though a potential repaint warning appears when creating alerts. This can be confirmed by doing bar replay with vertical lines at various lines and trend change zones to get confidence using the indicator. The vertical lines will stay in the same place on both current time and when running a bar replay.
𝗩𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹𝘀
Visual settings like Colour scheme, Colour Bars, Fill Transparency and Initial Support/Resistance Linewidth can be adjusted/changed from the settings under Volatizer Visuals section.

1. As mentioned in the manual above, higher the length, longer the trend and higher the Risk:Reward ratio.
2. Sensitivity affects the frequency of the signals in general. Low Sensitivity will generate less frequent signals and High Sensitivity will generate more frequent signals as the Sensitivity affects how quickly the Bands react to the price action.
3. As a rule of thumb, it is recommended to use relevant numbers that seem to work well as Volatizer Length. These can be Fibonacci numbers like 5, 8 , 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144 etc. These can also be chart timeframe multipliers that relate to Higher Time Frame (HTF). For example, using 24 on 1hr chart will help see Volatizer Bands based on Daily volatility and momentum, 72 on 15m chart for 4hr trend and so on.
===================================================================================================================
There are several combinations of settings that can be tested on the asset traded based on timeframe and risk/reward expectations. The indicator can be used for trade entries with filter combinations or can be used as standalone Visualizer for trend confirmations, levels etc.
===================================================================================================================

TradeChartist Catalyst™TradeChartist Catalyst is an elegant script that combines Catalyst Trade Bands and automatic ZigZag/Fibonacci plots using an original logic to help users interact in a visually engaging and meaningful way with the charts.
===================================================================================================================
™TradeChartist Catalyst features
=============================
1. Catalyst Trade Bands
Catalyst Trade Bands comprises Equilibrium or Mean Bands, Inner Bands, Outer Bands and a Overall Mean Line. Catalyst Trade Bands help visualize the price action in relation to the Equilibrium Bands and clearly show how far away from the mean the current price is. The Trade Bands are of two types - Normal and Weighted. Weighted Bands are very sensitive to price action and a higher Bands length is recommended.
Simple 144 vs Weighted 144 Trade Bands
2. Equilibrium Touch Points
Every time the price touches the Equilibrium, an orange touch point appears on the chart. Normally, the Equilibrium line, for an optimal sample, acts as support or resistance. Price breaching or failing this line usually signals a Pull Back, a Throw Back or a Trend Change based on how the price interacts with it. This can be used with a secondary confirmation like RSI, Stochastic etc. For example, if the price falls back significantly only to touch the Equilibrium Line and fails to test the Overall Mean Line when Stochastic is below 30, this could mean a strong Pull Back rather than a Trend Change as shown in the example chart below.
When price fails the Equilibrium Bands, the fill colour of the Equilibrium bands changes to Bearish colour. If the Overall Mean line is below the Equilibrium bands and is in a reasonable distance, Mean will act as support as shown in the example below. Price failing the mean will test Inner Bands and strong bear momentum could take price to Outer Bands and beyond.
All the components of the Catalyst Trade Bands including the Touch Points can be enabled or disabled from the settings.
3. ZigZag & Fibonacci
Catalyst automatically plots ZigZag and Auto Fibonacci Retracement based on an intelligent logic and can be tweaked by changing the Zigzag & Auto-Fibs Factor from the settings. It also plots Fib ratios and connectors along with price highs and lows of ZigZag. The ratios can be especially useful to visually detect harmonic patterns and also serves as a useful feature for Fibonacci traders.
4. Fibonacci Customisation
Catalyst users can customise Fibonacci type and levels, including levels colour from Catalyst settings. In addition to Auto-Fibs, users can also plot Fibonacci levels based on Days or Candles lookback. This is a very useful feature if the user wants to override Auto-Fibs to suit his/her needs. Users can also reverse the Fibonacci Levels by enabling Reverse from settings.
In the following example chart of OANDA:USDCAD , Fibonacci levels based on 10 days lookback is plotted.

TradeChartist Trend Splitter ™TradeChartist Trend Splitter is a visual Trend spotting script based on two simple models fused together - Dynamic Volatility Bands and Dynamic Mean Bands. The fusion of these two models based on user defined parameters of length, Volatility Risk and Mean Bands type, along with optional Trend Splitter color bars and Trend background split will make it visually engaging for any trader to understand the price action.
===================================================================================================================
Trend Splitter User Manual
========================
Trend Splitter settings has option to enable and disable the Volatility Bands and also the Mean Bands.
Under each heading, user can adjust the parameters to suit the trading style, based on time-frame traded.
Volatility Bands track the price action based on volatility trend lookback (Default - 55, MIn - 5, Max - 337) and also uses a Detector plot based on user defined risk (Default is 2.618, Min - 0.618, Max - 5) to continuously track the price action.
Mean Bands track the Mean values of the price action based on TradeChartist's original Mean Reversion Model based on one of 4 time tested Fib Lengths (Default - 55, Options - 55, 89, 144, 233, 337) and detects the price testing of Mean using Orange touchpoints.
Using Price Action in relation to both Volatility Bands and the Mean Bands, the script creates Mean Bands filtered Trend splits that plot Bull or Bear Trend background.
The Mean Bands Filter can be disabled for Trend Splits by just disabling Mean Bands from the settings. Also the option to display Trend Split background can also be enabled or disabled from the settings.
The settings also includes a useful feature to enable or disable coloured price bars using one of 3 colour themes.
Users can create alerts for Price testing mean, Bull and Bear trends using Long or Short from Trend Splitter's Alert Condition.
The indicator doesn't repaint even though a potential repaint warning appears when creating alerts. This can be confirmed by doing bar replay with vertical lines at various lines and trend change zones to get confidence using the indicator. The vertical lines will stay in the same place on both current time and when running a bar replay.
===================================================================================================================
Example Charts
1. 5m chart of BINANCE:AXSUSDTPERP using Trend Splitter (144, 2.618, Normal, 55) and TradeChartist Momentum Drift Oscillator (144 with Drift Visualizer). The Trend Splitter and MDO combo work brilliantly on Lower Time Frames and even on 15s/30s charts with MDO length of 144.
Best Practice - Always wait for a very long trend (over 337 bars on both MDO and Trend Splitter before taking a reverse trend trade at either Exhaustion or Super OB/OS zones of MDO) when using very low time-frames.
2. 5m chart of NYSE:PLTR using Trend Splitter (144, 3.618, Normal, 55) connected to TradeChartist Fib Master to plot Automatic Fibs. Just use Trend Identifier of Trend Splitter from Fib Master signal dropdown from settings, having both scripts active on chart.
3. Daily chart of OANDA:XAUUSD using Trend Splitter (using only Mean Bands - Weighted/144) to spot areas of support and resistance at Mean Bands.
Best Practice - Mean Bands can also act as confirmation indicator when used with other Trading View Indicators like RSI, Stohastic, Bollinger Bands etc.
4. Daily chart of COINBASE:ETHUSD using Trend Splitter (55, 0.618, Weighted, 55) connected to TradeChartist Plug and Trade to show Trend Splitter based Entries with Targets and Past Performance to assess the settings parameters in Trend Splitter. Just use Trend Identifier of Trend Splitter from Plug and Trade signal dropdown from settings, having both scripts active on chart.

Equilibriums -- Based on Ichimoku Kinko HyoIntro:
Hello dear traders. Lately I have been studying Ichimoku for trading. Personaly I find myself in a long lasting quest of creating an automated trading strategy that works.
Let me tell you it aint easy. On this route I made countless of indicators some of which are worthless, others that have some potential. I did not publish these indicators as I do not want to bother people with sub par indicators that waste your time. My belief is strong and some day I will probably succeed in creating a working strategy.
About the indicator:
While researching Ichimoku Kinko Hyo (thanks chaostrader69 for providing such invaluable knowledge) I came across the numbers that define ichimoku. The Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen lines and even the cloud are based on these numbers and create market equilibrium. The market always wants to return to this equilibrium. As a pine scripter and curious individual I made this indicator to expand the Tenkan and Kijun lines to more of these ichimoku number periods.
Ofcourse this creates a mess of an indicator especialy when combined with the real ichimoku which is already too much info to grasp and apply correctly for most traders. I can not recommend any strategy with this indicator and that is why I want to deliver this simple script to the public. Opinions and trading theorys regarding these lines are very welcome.
As you can see by the chart on the publication of this script the lines where nice and open and not crossing eachother in a clear uptrend. While when it was trading sideways the lines did not show direction at all and where close to eachother and crossing. Thx for taking the time to read this and possibly giving feedback. Feedback on the colors/line thickness is also welcome as I want my indicators to be beautiful!

Damping IndexThis indicator was originally developed by Curtis McKallip Jr. (Stocks & Commodities, V.10:7 (296-299): "The Damping Index").
It indentifies bars where the highs and lows are getting close and closer. A high Damping Index value means that the difference between the high price and low price is becoming lower and the security price is reaching equilibrium. A low Damping Index value means that the difference between the high and low prices is increasing.
Good luck and happy trading!
