Horizontal Dynamic Moving Averages [TheScalpingAnt]Overview
This indicator is a complete professional moving average framework designed for traders who want structured market insight, flexibility, and powerful visual clarity.
Instead of being limited to static moving averages, this tool gives you up to 10 independently configurable moving averages, full style control, forward-projected price lines, automatic labeling, and the freedom to build your own trend system exactly the way you trade.
This is not just a moving average indicator.
It is a market structure workstation.
Concepts
This tool is built around three core trading concepts:
Market Structure Visualization
Different moving averages represent short-term momentum, medium-term trend, and long-term bias. Seeing how they align instantly shows whether the market is trending, compressing, or reversing.
Precision and Control
Every MA can use any of the following calculation methods:
SMA — EMA — RMA — WMA — HMA — VWMA
This allows the trader to tailor the indicator to their trading system instead of being forced into one logic.
Clarity & Forward Guidance
Each moving average can be extended into the future with horizontal projections, allowing the trader to visualize reaction zones, support/resistance expectations, and confluence ahead of price.
Features
• Up to 10 fully independent moving averages
• Multiple calculation types (SMA / EMA / RMA / WMA / HMA / VWMA)
• Individual enable/disable control
• Adjustable length per MA
• Custom color per MA
• Individual line thickness and style
• Forward extension into future bars
• Optional on-price-scale value display
• Automatic price labels with length identification
• Extremely clean chart visualization
• Works on any market and timeframe
• Non-repainting
Every moving average becomes a strategic tool, not just a line.
Customization
This indicator is engineered to adapt to every trading style:
You Control:
• Which MAs are active
• Their length
• Their calculation method
• Their color
• Their thickness
• Their line style
• Whether values display on scale
• Forward extension distance
This makes the tool equally valuable for:
Scalpers – Day Traders – Swing Traders – Long-Term Investors.
Usage
Typical use cases include:
• Identifying trend direction
• Spotting pullbacks inside trends
• Recognizing trend shifts early
• Mapping dynamic support and resistance
• Aligning entries with trend bias
• Confirming breakout validity
• Detecting consolidation phases
Shorter MAs provide reaction signals
Mid-range MAs provide structural control
Higher MAs define long-term bias
Projected future lines allow traders to visually anticipate market reactions instead of reacting late.
Example Workflow
Example practical trading workflow:
1. Short-term MAs (e.g., 8 / 16 / 30) track entry conditions and momentum.
2. Mid-term MAs (50 / 100) define structural bias.
3. Long-term MAs (150 / 200 / 800 / 1500 / 3000) define macro trend.
4. If short-term averages remain above structural ones → trend continuation confidence.
5. If they compress and cross downward → structural weakness.
6. Extended forward bands mark dynamic areas where the market may react next.
Simple. Clear. Actionable.
Settings
Default design structure includes:
• Enable/Disable per MA
• Length defaults: 8 → 3000
• Full color customization
• Individual width selection
• Solid / Dashed / Dotted styles
• Price scale value toggle
• Forward extension bar length selector
Everything is designed to make the indicator powerful without cluttering the chart.

Pivot Pattern Boundaries [cajole]
This script automatically detects horizontal support / resistance levels based on user-programmable criteria.
For example, you can detect boundaries with >3 touches within 200 days, allowing a tolerance of 1/4*ATR.
"Touches" are defined from pivots on the chart. The best way to search for larger/smaller patterns is to increase/decrease the pivot size.*
Future versions will allow "exceptions (i.e. keep drawing the horizontal line even if it is breached once or twice).
*TradingView's Pine script defines a Pivot as the highest point in a group. So, entering "2" means that a day's high needs to be above 2 days before and after (xxYxx) to be considered a high pivot.
This script can be an aid in drawing multiple patterns with horizontal boundaries (rectangles, triangles, head and shoulders, cup & handles, VCPs). I have intentionally avoided trying to code detection of the "other side" of these patterns, as that is where the craft of charting becomes an art.
Horizontal Plot Lines - Max. 24 - grid strategy - DARK LINESWhen I looked for something like this I couldn't find it. Although simple in appearance, this script was actually quite long and complicated to create. It allows you to break up any horizontal space in up to 24 lines. Just remember that 13 lines equal 12 levels, as the top and bottom lines are the placeholders. So, if you are using quarters theory, you would want to select 5 lines.
It automatically sets the top line at a user-selectable place, like the close of the highest candlestick. It also allows you to select the lowest point as the close or the low. This way you can use the bodies of the candlestick or the wicks. You can also set the lookback period, so that your high and low can be set as far back as you prefer in the timescale you are looking at.
You can use these lines in things like quarters theory, or analyze buy and sell points in a grid bot strategy. This indicator could help you to determine where to equally place your buy and sells in a grid with up to 24 different placements.
This version has dark lines and is suitable for the light template. There is a matching light line version for a dark template.
Horizontal Line Pattern (adj #of lines, color, timeframe, top)The simple script allows you to subdivide and price range into a number of equal segments. For example, you can divide 50,000 to 60,000 into 2,4, or 7 lines. You can also set the beginning date and the end date. This can be useful as prices tend to hover around whole numbers or ratios of whole numbers.
You must use settings to set the number of lines and the start and end dates. You can also change the line thickness and the color scheme.
