GRG/RGR Signal, MA, Ranges and PivotsThis indicator is a combination of several indicators.
It is a combination of two of my indicators which I solely use for trading
1. EMA 10-20-50-200, Pivots and Previous Day/Week/Month range
2. 3/4-Bar GRG / RGR Pattern (Conditional 4th Candle)
You can use them individually if you already have some of them or just use this one. Belive me when I say, this is all you need, along with market structure knowlege and even if you don’t have that, this indicator has been doing wonders for me. This is all I use. I do not use anything else.
**Note - Do checkout the indicators individually as I have added valuable information in the comment section.
It contains the following,
1. 10 EMA/SMA - configurable
2. 20 EMA/SMA - configurable
3. 50 EMA/SMA - configurable
4. 200 EMA/SMA - configurable
5. Previous Day's Range - configurable
6. Previous Week's Range - configurable
7. Previous Month's Range - configurable
8. Pivots - configurable
9. Buy Sell Signal - configurable
The Moving Averages
It is a very important combination and using it correctly with price action will strengthen your entries and exits.
The ema's or sma's added are the most powerful ones and they do definitely act as support and resistance.
The Daily/Weekly/Monthly Ranges
The Daily/Weekly/Monthly ranges are extremely important for any trader and should be used for targets and reversals.
Pivots
Pivots can provide support and resistance level. R5 and S5 can be used to check for over stretched conditions. You can customise them however you like. It is a full pivot indicator.
It is defaulted to show R5 and S5 only to reduce noise in the chart but it can be customised.
The 3/4 RGR or GRG Signal Generator
Combined with a 3/4 RGR or GRG setup can be all a trader needs.
You don't need complex strategies and SMC concepts to trade. Simple EMAs, ranges and RGR/GRG setup is the most winning combination.
This indicator can be used to identify the Green-Red-Green or Red-Green-Red pattern.
It is a price action indicator where a price action which identifies the defeat of buyers and sellers.
If the buyers comprehensively defeat the sellers then the price moves up and if the sellers defeat the buyers then the price moves down.
In my trading experience this is what defines the price movement.
It is a 3 or 4 candle pattern, beyond that i.e, 5 or more candles could mean a very sideways market and unnecessary signal generation.
How does it work?
Upside/Green signal
1. Say candle 1 is Green, which means buyers stepped in, then candle 2 is Red or a Doji, that means sellers brought the price down. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Green and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle, then a green arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
2. Here the buyers defeated the sellers.
3. Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
4. Important - We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves above the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close. Ignore wicks.
5. But for a more optimised entry I have added an option to use candle’s highs and lows instead of open and close. This reduces lot of noise and provides us with more precise entry. This setting is turned on by default.
6. I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
7. I call it the +-+ or GRG pattern or Green-Red-Green or Buyer-Seller-Buyer or Seller defeated or just Buyer pattern.
8. Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders (that includes me) or candle 2's body low for risky traders.
9. Back testing suggests that body low will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Downside/Red signal
1. Say candle 1 is Red, which means sellers stepped in, then candle 2 is Green or a Doji, that means buyers took the price up. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Red and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle then a Red arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
2. Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
3. We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves below the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close.
4. But for a more optimised entry I have added an option to use candle’s highs and lows instead of open and close. This reduces lot of noise and provides us with more precise entry. This setting is turned on by default.
5. I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
6. I call it the -+- or RGR pattern or Red-Green-Red or Seller-Buyer-Seller or Buyer defeated or just Seller pattern.
7. Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders ( that includes me) or candle 2's body high for risky traders.
8. Back testing suggests that body high will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Combining Indicators and Signal
Combining these indicators with GRG/RGR signal can be very powerful and can provide big moves.
1. MA crossover and Signal - This is very powerful and provides a very big move. Trades can be held for longer. If after taking the trade we notice that the MA crossover has happened then trades can be held for higher targets.
2. Pivots and Signal - Pivots and add a support or resistance point. Take profits on these points. R5/S5 are over streched conditions so we can start looking for reversal signals and ignore other signals
3. Intraday Range - first 1, 5, 15 min of the day - Sideways days is when price will stay in these ranges. You can take profits at these ranges or if the range is broken and we get a signal, then it can mean that the direction will be sustained.
4. Previous Day/Week/Month Ranges - These can be used as Take Profit points if the price is moving towards them after getting the signal. If the range is broken and we get a signal then it can be a strong signal. They can also be used as reversal points if a strong signal is generated.
Important Settings
1. Include 4th Candle Confirmation - You can enable or disable the 4th candle signal to avoid the noise, but at times I have noticed that the 4th candle gives a very strong signal or I can say that the strong signal falls on the 4th candle. This is mostly a coincidence.
2. Bars to check (default 10) - You can also configure how many previous bars should the signal be generated for. 10 to 30 is good enough. To backtest increase it to 2000 or 5000 for example.
3. Use Candle High/Low for confirmation instead of Candle Open/Close - More optimized entry and noise reduction. This option is now defaulted to false.
4. Show Green-Red-Green (bull) signals - Show only bull entries. Useful when I have a predefined view i.e, I know market is going to go up today.
5. Show Red-Green-Red (bear) signals - Show only bear entries. Useful when I have a predefined view i.e, I know market is going to go down today.
6. 3rd candle should be a Strong candle before considering 4th candle - This will enforce additional logic in 4 candle setup that the 3rd candle is the candle in our direction of breakout. This means something like GRGG is mandatory, which is still the default behaviour. If disabled, the 3rd candle can be any candle and 4th candle will act as our breakout candle. This behaviour has led to breakouts and breakdowns as times, hence I added this as a separate feature. Vice-versa for a RGGR.
For a 4 candle setup till now we were expecting GRGG or RGRR but we can let the system ignore the 3rd candle completely if needed.
This will result in additional signals.
7. Three intraday ranges added for index and stock traders - 1 min, 5 min and 15 min ranges will be displayed. These are disabled by default except 15 min. These are very important ranges and in sideways days the price will usually move within the 15 min. A breakout of this range and a positive signal can be a very powerful setup.
Safe traders can avoid taking a trade in this range as it can lead to fakeouts.
The line style, width, color and opacity are configurable.
Pointers/Golden Rules
1. If after taking the trade, the next candle moves in your direction and closes strong bullish or bearish, then move SL to break even and after that you can trail it.
2. If a upside trade hits SL and immediately a down side trade signal is generated on the next candle then take it. Vice versa is true.
3. Trades need to be taken on previous 2 candle's body high or low combined and not the wicks.
4. The most losses a trader takes is on a sideways day and because in our strategy the stop loss is so small that even on a sideways day we'll get out with a little profit or worst break even.
5. Hold trades for longer targets and don't panic.
6. If last 3-4 days have been sideways then there is a good probability that today will be trending so we can hold our trade for longer targets. Inverse is true when the market has been trending for 2-3 days then volatility followed by sideways is coming (DOW theory). Target to hold the trade for whole day and not exit till the day closes.
7. In general avoid trading in the middle of the day for index and stocks. Divide the day into 3 parts and avoid the middle.
8. Use Support/Resistance, 10, 20, 50, 200 EMA/SMA, Gaps, Whole/Round numbers(very imp) for identifying targets.
9. Trail your SL.
10. For indexes I would use 5 min and 15 min timeframe and at times 10 mins.
11. For commodities and crypto we can use higher timeframe as well. Look for signals during volatile time durations and avoid trading the whole day. Signal usually gives good targets on those times.
12. If a GRG or RGR pattern appears on a daily timeframe then this is our time to go big.
13. Minimum Risk to Reward should be 1:2 and for longer targets can be 1:4 to 1:10.
14. Trade with small lot size. Money management will happen automatically.
15. With small lot size and correct Risk-Reward we can be very profitable. Don't trade with big lot size.
16. Stay in the market for longer and collect points not money.
17. Very imp - Watch market and learn to generate a market view.
18. Very imp - Only 3 type of candles are needed in trading -
Strong Bullish (Big Green candle), Strong Bearish (Big Red candle),
Hammer (it is Strong Bullish), Inverse Hammer (it is Strong Bearish)
and Doji (indecision or confusion).
If on daily timeframe I see Strong Bullish candle previous day then I am biased to the upside the next day, if I see Strong Bearish candle the previous day then I am biased to the downside the next day, if I see Doji on the previous day then I am cautious the next day, if there are back to back Dojis forming in daily or weekly then I am preparing for big move so time to go big once I get the signal.
19. Most Important Candlestick pattern - Bullish and Bearish Engulfing
20. The only Chart patterns I need -
a) Falling Wedge/Channel Bullish Pattern Uptrend or Bull Flag - Buying - Forming over a couple days for intraday and forming over a couple of weeks for swing
b) Falling Wedge/Channel Bullish Pattern Downtrend or Falling Channel - Buying
c) Rising Wedge Bearish Pattern Uptrend or Rising Channel - Selling
d) Rising Wedge Bearish Pattern Downtrend or Bear flag - Selling
e) Head and Shoulder - Over a longer period not for intraday. In 15 min takes few days and for swing 1hr or 4h or daily can take few days
f) M and W pattern - Reversal Patterns - They form within the above 4 patterns, usually resulting in the break of trend line
21. How Gaps work -
a) Small Gap up in Uptrend - Market can fill the gap and reverse. The perception is that people are buying. If previous day candle was Strong Bullish then market view is up.
b) Big Gap up in Uptrend - Not news driven - Profit booking will come but may not fill the entire gap
c) Big Gap up in Uptrend - News driven, war related, tax, interest rate - Market can keep going up without stopping.
c) Flat opening in Uptrend - Big chance of market going up. If previous day candle was Strong Bullish then view is upwards, if it was Doji then still upwards.
d) Gap down in Uptrend - Market is surprised. After going down initially it can go up
e) Small Gap down in Downtrend - Market can fill the gap and keep moving down. If previous day candle was Strong Bearish then view is still down.
f) Flat opening in Downtrend - View is down, short today.
g) Big Gap down in Downtrend - Profit booking and foolish buying will come but market view is still down.
h) Gap down with News - Volatility, sideways then down.
i) Gap Up in Downtrend - Can move up - Price can move up during 2/3rd of the day and End of the day revert and close in red.
22. Go big on bearish days for option traders. Puts are better bought and Calls are better sold.
23. Cluster of green signals can lead to bigger move on the upside and vice versa for red signals.
24. Most of this is what I learned from successful traders (from the top 2%) only the indicator is mine.
Pivot
Futures Floor Pivots — Timeframe Invariant (CT settlement)Daily pivot points with different settlement time options for different futures instruments.
VWAP Multi Sessions + EMA + TEMA + PivotThis indicator combines several technical tools in one, designed for both intraday and swing traders to provide a complete view of market dynamics.
- VWAP Multi Sessions: calculates and plots five independent VWAPs, each based on a specific time range. This allows you to better identify value zones and price evolution during different phases of the trading day.
- Moving Averages (EMA): three strategic EMAs (55, 144, and 233 periods) are included to track the broader trend and highlight potential crossovers.
- TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average): two TEMAs (144 and 233 periods) offer a more responsive alternative to EMAs, reducing lag while filtering out some market noise.
- Daily Levels: the previous day’s open, close, high, and low are plotted as key support and resistance references.
- Pivot Point (P): also included is the classic daily pivot from the previous session, calculated as (High + Low + Close) / 3, which acts as a central level around which price often gravitates.
In summary, this indicator combines:
- intraday value references (session VWAPs),
- trend indicators (EMA and TEMA),
- and daily reference points (OHLC and Pivot).
It is particularly suited for intraday, scalping, and swing trading strategies, helping traders anticipate potential reaction zones in the market more effectively.
LA - Opening Price based Previous day Range PivotThis "LA - Opening Price based Previous day Range Pivot" indicator is a custom technical analysis tool designed for Trading View charts. It plots support and resistance levels (often referred to as pivots or ranges) based on the current opening price combined with the previous period's trading range. The "previous period" can be daily, weekly, or monthly, making it a multi-timeframe tool. These levels are projected using Fibonacci-inspired multipliers to create potential breakout or reversal zones.
The core idea is inspired by concepts like the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy or Fibonacci pivots, but it's customized here to use a dynamic range calculation (the maximum of several absolute price differences) rather than a simple high-low range. This makes it more robust for volatile markets. Levels are symmetric above (resistance) and below (support) the opening price, helping traders identify potential entry/exit points, stop-losses, or targets. This will be useful when there is a gap-up/down as in Nifty/Sensex .
Purpose of the Indicator:
To visualize potential support/resistance zones for the current trading session based on the opening price and historical range data. This helps traders anticipate price movements, such as breakouts above resistance or bounces off support
Use Cases:
Intraday Trading: On lower timeframes (e.g., 5-min or 15-min charts), it shows daily levels for short-term trades.
Swing Trading: On higher timeframes (e.g., hourly or daily), it displays weekly/monthly levels for longer holds.
Range Identification: The filled bands highlight "zones" where price might consolidate or reverse.
Conditional Display: Levels only appear on appropriate timeframes (e.g., daily levels on intraday charts <60min), preventing clutter.
Theoretical Basis: It builds on pivot point theory, where the opening price acts as a central pivot. Multipliers (e.g., 0.618 for Fibonacci golden ratio) project levels, assuming price often respects these ratios due to market psychology.
How Calculations Work
Let's dive into the math with examples. Assume a stock with:
Current daily open (cdo) = $100
Previous daily high (pdh) = $105, low (pdl) = $95, close (pdc) = $102, close 2 days ago (pdc2) = $98
Step 1: Dynamic Range Calculation (var_d2):
This is the max of:
|pdh - pdc2| = |105 - 98| = 7
|pdl - pdc2| = |95 - 98| = 3
|pdh - pdl| = |105 - 95| = 10 (previous day range)
|pdh - cdo| = |105 - 100| = 5
|pdl - cdo| = |95 - 100| = 5
|pdc - cdo| = |102 - 100| = 2
|pdc2 - cdo| = |98 - 100| = 2
Max = 10 (so range = 10). This ensures the range accounts for gaps and extended moves, not just high-low.
Step 2: Level Projections:
Resistance (above open): Open + (Range * Multiplier)
dre6 = 100 + (10 * 1.5) = 115
dre5 = 100 + (10 * 1.27) ≈ 112.7
... down to dre0 = 100 + (10 * 0.1) = 101
dre50 = 100 + (10 * 0.5) = 105 (midpoint)
Support (below open): Open - (Range * Multiplier)
dsu0 = 100 - (10 * 0.1) = 99
... up to dsu6 = 100 - (10 * 1.5) = 85

Pros and Cons
Pros:
Multi-Timeframe Flexibility: Seamlessly integrates daily, weekly, and monthly levels, useful for aligning short-term trades with longer trends (e.g., intraday breakout confirmed by weekly support).
Dynamic Range Calculation: Unlike standard pivots (just (H+L+C)/3), it uses max of multiple diffs, capturing gaps/volatility better—great for stocks with overnight moves.
Customizable via Inputs: Users can toggle levels, adjust multipliers, or change timeframes without editing code. Inline inputs keep the UI clean.
Visual Aids: Filled bands make zones obvious; conditional colors highlight "tight" vs. "wide" ranges (e.g., for volatility assessment).
Fibonacci Integration: Levels based on proven ratios, appealing to technical traders. Symmetric supports/resistances simplify strategy building (e.g., buy at support, sell at resistance).
No Repainting: Uses historical data with lookahead, so levels are fixed once calculated—reliable for back-testing.
Cons:
Chart Clutter: With all toggles on, 50+ plots/fills can overwhelm the chart, especially on mobile or small screens. Requires manual disabling.
Complexity for Beginners: Many inputs and calculations; without understanding fib ratios or range logic, it might confuse new users.
Performance Overhead: On low timeframes (e.g., 1-min), fetching higher TF data multiple times could lag, especially with many symbols or back-tests.
Assumes Volatility Persistence: Relies on previous range projecting future moves; in low-vol markets (e.g., sideways trends), levels may be irrelevant or too wide/narrow.
No Alerts or Signals: Purely visual; no built-in buy/sell alerts or crossover conditions—users must add separately.
Hardcoded Styles/Colors: Limited customization without code edits (e.g., can't change line styles via inputs).
Also, not optimized for non-stock assets (e.g., forex with 24/7 trading).
In summary, this is a versatile pivot tool for range-based trading based on Opening price, excelling in volatile markets but requiring some setup. If you're using it, start with defaults on a daily chart and toggle off unnecessary levels.

Chartlense Dashboard (Data, Trend & Levels)Chartlense Dashboard (Data, Trend & Levels)
Overview
This dashboard is designed to solve two common problems for traders: chart clutter and the manual drawing of support and resistance levels . It consolidates critical data from multiple indicators into a clean table overlay and automatically plots the most relevant S&R levels based on recent price action. The primary goal is to provide a clear, at-a-glance overview of the market's structure and data.
It offers both a vertical and horizontal layout to fit any trader's workspace.
Key Concepts & Calculations Explained
This indicator is more than a simple collection of values; it synthesizes data to provide unique insights. Here’s a conceptual look at how its core components work:
Automatic Support & Resistance (Pivot-Based):
The dashed support (green) and resistance (red) lines are not manually drawn. They are dynamically calculated based on the most recent confirmed pivot highs and pivot lows . A pivot is a foundational concept in technical analysis that identifies potential turning points in price action.
How it works: A pivot high is a candle whose `high` is higher than a specific number of candles to its left and right (the "Pivot Lookback" is set to 5 by default in the settings). A pivot low is the inverse. By automatically identifying these confirmed structural points, the script visualizes the most relevant levels of potential supply and demand on the chart.
Relative Volume (RVOL):
This value in the table is not the standard volume. It measures the current bar's volume against its recent average (specifically, `current volume / 10-period simple moving average of volume`).
Interpretation: A reading above 2.0 (indicated by green text) suggests that the current volume is more than double the recent average. This technique is used to identify significant volume spikes, which can add conviction to breakouts or signal potential market climaxes.
Consolidated Data for Context:
Other values displayed in the table, such as the EMAs (9, 20, 200) , Bollinger Bands (20, 2) , RSI (14) , MACD (12, 26, 9) , and VWAP (on intraday charts), use their standard industry calculations. They are included to provide a complete contextual picture without needing to load each indicator separately, saving valuable chart space.
How to Use This in Your Trading
This dashboard is designed as a tool for confluence and context , not as a standalone signal generator. Here are some ways to integrate it into your analysis workflow:
As a Trend Filter: Before considering a trade, quickly glance at the EMAs and the MACD values in the table. A price above the key EMAs and a positive MACD can serve as a quick confirmation that you are aligned with the dominant trend.
To Validate Breakouts: When the price is approaching a key Resistance level (red pivot line), watch the RVOL value . A reading above 2.0 on the breakout candle adds significant confirmation that the move is backed by strong interest. The same logic applies to breakdowns below a support level.
To Spot Potential Reversals: Confluence is key. For example, if the price is testing a Support level (green pivot line) AND the RSI in the table is approaching oversold levels (e.g., near 30), it can signal a higher probability reversal setup.
About This Indicator
This indicator was developed by the team at ChartLense to help traders declutter their charts and focus on the data that matters. We believe in making complex analysis more accessible and organized. We hope this free tool is a valuable addition to your trading process.
P/S Ratio vs Median + Bollinger Band- 📝 This indicator highlights potential buying opportunities by analyzing the Price-to-Sales (P/S) ratio in relation to Bollinger Bands and its historical median.
- 🎯 The goal is to provide a visually intuitive signal for value-oriented entries, especially when valuation compression aligns with historical context.
- 💡 Vertical green shading is applied when the P/S ratio drops below the lower Bollinger Band, which is calculated directly from the P/S ratio itself — not price. This condition often signals the ticker may be oversold.
- 🟢 Lighter green appears when the ratio is below the lower band but above the median, suggesting a possible shorter-term entry with slightly more risk.
- 🟢 Darker green appears when the ratio is both below the lower band and below the median, pointing to a potentially stronger, longer-term value entry.
- ⚠️ This logic was tested using 1 and 2-day time frames. It may not be as helpful in longer time frames, as the financial data TradingView pulls in begins in Q4 2017.
- ⚠️ Note: This script relies on financial data availability through TradingView. It may not function properly with certain tickers — especially ETFs, IPOs, or thinly tracked assets — where P/S ratio data is missing or incomplete.
- ⚠️ This indicator will not guarantee successful results. Use in conjunction with other indicators and do your due diligence.
- 🤖 This script was iteratively refined with the help of AI to ensure clean logic, minimalist design, and actionable signal clarity.
- 📢 Idea is based on the script "Historical PE ratio vs median" by @haribotagada

This tool marks recent swing highs and swing lows and turns them into persistent horizontal “liquidity” levels. These are places where resting orders often accumulate, such as stop losses above prior highs and below prior lows. The script detects confirmed pivots, records their prices, draws lines and labels, and manages their lifecycle on the chart so you can monitor potential sweep or breakout zones without manual redrawing.
What it plots
LQ-H at confirmed swing highs
LQ-L at confirmed swing lows
Horizontal levels that can optionally extend into the future
Timed removal of old levels to keep the chart clean
Each level stores its price, the bar where it was created, its type (high or low), plus a label and a line reference for efficient updates.
How it works
Pivot detection
A swing high is confirmed when the highest high has swing_length bars on both sides that are lower.
A swing low is confirmed when the lowest low has swing_length bars on both sides that are higher.
Pivots are only marked after they are confirmed, so they do not repaint.
Level creation
When a pivot confirms, the script records the price and the creation bar (offset by the right lookback).
A new line is plotted at that price, labeled LQ-H or LQ-L.
Rendering and extension
Levels can be drawn to the most recent bar only or extended to the right for forward reference.
Label size and line color/transparency are configurable.
Lifecycle management
On each confirmed bar, the script checks level age.
Levels older than a chosen bar count are removed automatically to reduce clutter.
How it can be used
Liquidity sweeps: Watch for price to probe beyond a level then close back inside. That behavior often signals a potential fade back into the prior range.
Breakout validation: If price pushes through a level and holds on closes, traders may treat that as continuation. Retests of the level from the other side can serve as structure checks.
Context for entries and exits: Use nearby LQ-H or LQ-L as reference for stop placement or partial-take zones, especially when other tools agree.
Multi-timeframe mapping: Plot swing points on higher timeframes, then drill down to time entries on lower timeframes as price interacts with those levels.
Why liquidity levels matter
Prior swing points are focal areas where many strategies set stops or pending orders. Price often revisits these zones, either to “sweep” resting liquidity before reversing, or to absorb it and trend. Marking these areas objectively helps frame scenarios like failed breaks, successful breakouts, and retests, and it reduces the subjectivity of eyeballing structure.
Settings to know
Swing Detection Length (swing_length), Controls sensitivity. Lower values find more local swings. Higher values find more significant ones.
Bars until removal (removeafter), Deletes levels after a fixed number of bars to prevent buildup.
Extend Levels Right (extend_levels), Keeps levels projected into the future for easier planning.
Label Size (label_size), Choose tiny to large for chart readability.
One color input controls both high and low levels with transparency for context.
Strengths
Objective marking of recent structure without hand drawing
No repaint after confirmation since pivots are locked once the right lookback completes
Lightweight and fast with simple lifecycle management
Clear visuals that integrate well with any price-action workflow
Practical tips
For scalping: use smaller swing_length to capture more granular liquidity. Keep removeafter short to avoid clutter.
For swing trading: increase swing_length so only more meaningful levels remain. Consider extending levels to the right for planning.
Combine with time-of-day filters, ATR for stop sizing, or a separate trend filter to bias trades taken at the levels.
Keep screenshots focused: one image showing a sweep and reversal, another showing a clean breakout and retest.
Limitations and notes
Levels appear after confirmation, so they are delayed by swing_length bars. This is by design to avoid repainting.
On very noisy or illiquid symbols, you may see many nearby levels. Increasing swing_length and shortening removeafter helps.
The script does not assess volume or session context. Consider pairing with volume or session tools if that is part of your process.
Pivot Points. High & Lows By Reversal PercentageLibrary "Pivot Points. High & Lows By Reversal Percentage" by Jal9000
This Pine Script library provides a robust function for identifying and tracking pivot points (reversal points) in price data, suitable for integration into custom trading indicators and strategies.
🛠️ Main Features:
- ✅ Identifies pivot highs and lows based on configurable price movement thresholds.
- ✅ Lightweight. No candle backtracing used. Much less computation heavy.
- ✅ Supports multiple calls (with different values) within a single script.
- ✅ Compatible with request.security for multi-timeframe analysis.
- ✅ Returns both confirmed and temporary pivots for flexible integration.
- ✅ Pinescript V5 and V6 compliant code.
Purpose:
The pivots library enables Pine Script developers to easily add pivot point detection to their scripts. It identifies significant price reversals by evaluating price movements against a minimum range threshold ( min_range_pct ) and confirming reversals based on a percentage ( reversal_pct ) of the prior trend’s magnitude. The library supports multiple simultaneous calls with different settings, making it ideal for multi-timeframe strategies.
How It Works:
The library’s f_calculatePivot function tracks price movements to detect pivot points:
Minimum Range Threshold : A potential pivot is considered if the price moves beyond the min_range_pct percentage of the current high (for a high pivot) or low (for a low pivot), ensuring sufficient movement.
Reversal Confirmation : A pivot is confirmed if the price reverses from the potential pivot by at least the reversal_pct percentage of the distance between the last confirmed pivot and the current potential pivot, measuring the retracement relative to the prior trend’s magnitude.
The function alternates between tracking highs (in an uptrend) and lows (in a downtrend), updating the trend when a pivot is confirmed.
State management uses an array of pivot_state objects, allowing independent calculations for different timeframes and min_range_pct values within the same script.

Pivot Matrix & Multi-Timeframe Support-Resistance Analytics________________________________________
📘 Study Material for Pivot Matrix & Multi Timeframe Support-Resistance Analytics
(By aiTrendview — Educational Use Only)
________________________________________
🎯 Introduction
The Pivot Matrix & Multi Timeframe Support-Resistance Analytics indicator is designed to help traders visualize pivot points, support/resistance levels, VWAP, and volume flow analytics all in one place. Rather than giving explicit buy/sell calls, the dashboard provides reference insights so a learner may understand how different technical levels interact in real time.
This document explains its functionality step by step with formulas and usage guides.
________________________________________
1️⃣ Pivot System Logic
Pivot points are classic tools for mapping market support and resistance levels.
✦ How Calculated?
Using the Traditional Method:
• Pivot Point (PP):
PP=Highprev+Lowprev+Closeprev3PP = \frac{High_{prev} + Low_{prev} + Close_{prev}}{3}PP=3Highprev+Lowprev+Closeprev
• First Support/Resistance:
R1=2×PP−Lowprev,S1=2×PP−HighprevR1 = 2 \times PP - Low_{prev}, \quad S1 = 2 \times PP - High_{prev}R1=2×PP−Lowprev,S1=2×PP−Highprev
• Second Support/Resistance:
R2=PP+(Highprev−Lowprev),S2=PP−(Highprev−Lowprev)R2 = PP + (High_{prev} - Low_{prev}), \quad S2 = PP - (High_{prev} - Low_{prev})R2=PP+(Highprev−Lowprev),S2=PP−(Highprev−Lowprev)
• Third Levels:
R3=Highprev+2×(PP−Lowprev),S3=Lowprev−2×(Highprev−PP)R3 = High_{prev} + 2 \times (PP - Low_{prev}), \quad S3 = Low_{prev} - 2 \times (High_{prev} - PP)R3=Highprev+2×(PP−Lowprev),S3=Lowprev−2×(Highprev−PP)
• Similarly, R4/R5 and S4/S5 are extrapolated from extended range multipliers.
✦ How Used?
• Price above PP → bullish control bias.
• Price below PP → bearish control bias.
• R1–R5 levels act as resistances; S1–S5 act as supports.
Learners should watch how candles behave when approaching R/S zones to spot breakout vs. rejection conditions.
________________________________________
2️⃣ Multi Timeframe Logic
The indicator allows using daily-based pivot values (via request.security). This ensures alignment with institutional daily levels, not just intraday recalculations.
✦ Teaching Value
Understanding MTF pivots shows how markets respect higher timeframe levels (daily > intraday, weekly > daily). This helps learners grasp nested support-resistance structures.
________________________________________
3️⃣ VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
Formula:
VWAPt=∑(Pricei×Volumei)∑(Volumei),Pricei=High+Low+Close3VWAP_t = \frac{\sum (Price_i \times Volume_i)}{\sum (Volume_i)}, \quad Price_i = \frac{High + Low + Close}{3}VWAPt=∑(Volumei)∑(Pricei×Volumei),Pricei=3High+Low+Close
Usage:
• VWAP is used as an institutional benchmark of fair value.
• Above VWAP = bullish flow.
• Below VWAP = bearish flow.
Learners should check whether price respects VWAP as a magnet or uses it as support/resistance.
________________________________________
4️⃣ Volume Flow Analysis
The script classifies buy volume, sell volume, and neutral volume.
• Buy Volume = if close > open.
• Sell Volume = if close < open.
• Neutral Volume = if close = open.
For daily tracking:
Buy%=DayBuyVolDayTotalVol×100,Sell%=DaySellVolDayTotalVol×100Buy\% = \frac{DayBuyVol}{DayTotalVol} \times 100, \quad Sell\% = \frac{DaySellVol}{DayTotalVol} \times 100Buy%=DayTotalVolDayBuyVol×100,Sell%=DayTotalVolDaySellVol×100
Usage for Learners:
• Dominant Buy% → accumulation/ bullish pressure.
• Dominant Sell% → distribution/ bearish pressure.
• Balanced → sideways liquidity building.
This teaches observation of order flow bias rather than relying only on price.
________________________________________
5️⃣ Dashboard Progress Bars & Colors
The script uses visual progress bars and dynamic colors for clarity. For example:
• VWAP Backgrounds: Green shades when price strongly above VWAP, Red when below.
• Volume Bars: More green blocks mean buying dominance, red means selling pressure.
This visual design turns concepts into easy-to-digest cues, useful for training.
________________________________________
6️⃣ Market Status Summary
Finally, the dashboard synthesizes all data points:
• Price vs Pivot (above or below).
• Price vs VWAP (above or below).
• Volume Pressure (buy side vs sell side).
Status Rule:
• If all three align bullish → Status box turns green.
• If mixed → Neutral grey.
• If bearish dominance → weaker tone.
Why Important?
This teaches learners that market conditions should align in confluence across indicators before confidence arises.

Clean Pivot Lines with AlertsTechnical Overview
This Script is designed for detecting untouched pivot highs and lows. It draws horizontal levels only when those pivots remain unviolated within a configurable lookback window and removes them automatically upon price breaches or sweeps.
Key components include:
Pivot detection logic : Utilizes ta.pivothigh()/ta.pivotlow() (or equivalent via request.security for HTF) with parameterized pivotLength to ensure flexibility and adaptability to different timeframes.
Cleanliness filtering : Checks lookbackBars prior to line creation to skip levels already violated, ensuring only uncontaminated pivots are used.
Dynamic level tracking : Stores active levels in arrays (highLines, lowLines) for continuous real-time monitoring.
Violation logic : Detects both close-based breaks (breakAbove/breakBelow) and wick-based sweeps (sweepAbove/sweepBelow), triggering alerts and automatic teardown.
Periodic housekeeping : Every N (10) confirmed bars, re-verifies “clean” status and removes silently invalidated levels—maintaining chart hygiene and avoiding stale overlays.
Customization options : Supports pivot timeframe override, colors, line width/style, lookback length, and alert toggling.
Utility
This overlay script provides a disciplined workflow for drawing meaningful support/resistance levels, filtering out contaminated pivot points, and signaling validations (breaks/sweeps) with alerts. Its modular design and HTF support facilitate integration into systematic workflows, offering far more utility than mere static pivot plots.
Usage Instructions
1. Adjust `pivot_timeframe`, `pivot_length`, and `lookback_bars` to suit your strategy timeframe and volatility structure.
2. Customize visual parameters as required.
3. Enable alerts to receive in-platform messages upon pivot violations.
4. Use HTF override only if analyzing multi-timeframe pivot behavior; otherwise, leave empty to default to chart timeframe.
Performance & Limitations
- Pivot lines confirmation lags by `pivot_length` bars; real-time signals may be delayed.
- Excessive active lines may impact performance on low-TF charts.
- The “clean” logic is contingent on the `lookback_bars` parameter; choose sufficiently high values to avoid false cleanliness.
- Alerts distinguish between closes beyond and wick-only breaches to aid strategic nuance.

spec = fs.get(syminfo.root)
label.new(bar_index, high, str.format("{0}: Tick={1}, Value=${2}", spec.name, spec.tickSize, spec.tickValue))
BarUtils: Get Bar Index from DateLibrary "BarUtils"
getBarIndexFromDate(targetTimestamp)
Parameters:
targetTimestamp (int)
**Description**:
This utility provides a reliable way to calculate the `bar_index` of a specific calendar date, regardless of chart resolution. It's especially useful for anchoring scripts to historical events, labeling macroeconomic moments, or marking custom time-based signals that must remain consistent across timeframes.
Unlike hardcoded `bar_index - N` approaches, this function dynamically estimates the number of bars between a given `timestamp()` and the current bar using the actual time-per-bar (`time - time `). It works correctly on intraday, daily, weekly, and monthly charts.
### 💡 **Function Provided**:
import TradeTitan120/BarUtils/1
* `getBarIndexFromDate(int targetTimestamp)`
→ Returns the estimated `bar_index` that aligns with a given timestamp
### ✅ **Use Cases**:
* Marking past events like FOMC meetings, market crashes, or personal signals
* Backtesting entry/exit conditions from specific calendar dates
* Anchoring visual elements (shapes, lines, labels) across resolutions
This tool is simple, fast, and built for accuracy. Use it to enhance multi-timeframe compatibility in any script.
Internal Pivot Pattern [LuxAlgo]The Internal Pivot Pattern indicator is a novel method allowing traders to detect pivots without excessive delay on the chart timeframe, by using the lower timeframe data from a candle.
It features custom colors for candles and zigzag lines to help identify trends. A dashboard showing the accuracy of the pattern is also included.
🔶 USAGE
We define a pivot as the occurrence where the middle candle over a specific interval (for example, the most recent 21 bars) is the highest (pivot high) or the lowest (pivot low). This method commonly allows for identifying swing highs/lows on a trader's chart; however, this pattern can only be identified after a specific number of bars has been formed, rendering this pattern useless for real-time detection of swing highs/lows.
This indicator uses a different approach, removing the need to wait for candles to form on the user chart; instead, we check the lower timeframe data of the current candle and evaluate for the presence of a pivot given the internal data, effectively providing pivot confirmation at the candle close.
An internal pivot low pattern is indicative of a potential uptrend, while an internal pivot high is indicative of a potential downtrend.
Candles are colored based on the last internal pivot detected, with blue candle colors indicating that the most recent internal pivot is a pivot low, indicating an uptrend, while an orange candle color indicates that the most recent internal pivot is a pivot high, indicating a downtrend.
🔹 Timeframes
The timeframe setting allows controlling the amount of lower timeframe data to consider for the internal pivot detection. This setting must be lower than the user's chart timeframe.
Using a timeframe significantly lower than the user chart timeframe will evaluate a larger amount of data for the pivot detection, making it less frequent, while using a timeframe closer to the chart timeframe can make the internal pivot detection more frequent, and more prone to false positives.
🔹 Accuracy Dashboard
The Accuracy Dashboard allows evaluating how accurate the detected patterns are as a percentage, with a pattern being judged accurate if subsequent patterns are detected higher or lower than a previous one.
For example, an internal pivot low is judged accurate if the following internal pivot is higher than it, indicating that higher highs have been made.
This dashboard can be useful to determine the timeframe setting to maximize the respective internal pivot accuracy.
🔶 SETTINGS
Timeframe: Timeframe for detecting internal swings
Accuracy Dashboard: Enable or disable the Accuracy Dashboard.
🔹 Style
Internal Pivot High: Color of the dot displayed upon the detection of an internal pivot high
Internal Pivot Low: Color of the dot displayed upon the detection of an internal pivot low
Zig-Zag: Color of the zig-zag segments connecting each internal pivot
Candles: Enable candle coloring, with control over the color of the candles highlighting the detected trend
Multi Pivot Point & Central Pivot Range - Nadeem Al-QahwiThis indicator combines four advanced trading modules into one flexible and easy-to-use script:
Traditional Pivot Points:
Calculates classic support and resistance levels (PP, R1–R5, S1–S5) based on previous session data. Ideal for identifying key turning points and mapping out the daily, weekly, or monthly structure.
Camarilla Levels:
Provides six upper and lower pivot levels (H1–H6, L1–L6) derived from volatility and closing price formulas. Especially effective for intraday reversal, mean reversion, and finding overbought/oversold extremes.
Central Pivot Range (CPR):
Plots the median, top, and bottom of the value area each session. CPR width instantly highlights whether the market is likely to trend (narrow CPR) or remain range-bound (wide CPR).
Developing CPR projects the evolving range for the current period—essential for real-time analysis and pre-market planning.
Dynamic Zone Levels (DZL):
Automatically detects and highlights clusters of pivots to reveal high-probability support/resistance zones, filtering out market “noise.”
DZL alerts notify you whenever price breaks or retests these key areas, making it easier to spot momentum trades and avoid false signals.
Key Features:
Multi-timeframe flexibility: Use with daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or custom timeframes—even rare ones like biyearly and decennial.
Modular design: Activate or hide any system (Traditional, Camarilla, CPR, DZL) as you need.
Bilingual interface: Every setting and label is shown in both English and Arabic.
Full customization: Control visibility, color, style, and placement for every level and label.
Historical depth: Plot up to 5,000 pivot/zones back for deep analysis and backtesting.
Smart alerts: Get instant notifications on true S/R breakouts or retests (from DZL).
How to Use:
Trend Trading:
Watch for a very narrow CPR to identify potential trending days—trade in the breakout direction above/below the CPR.
Range Trading:
When CPR is wide, expect sideways movement. Fade reversals at R1/S1 or within the CPR boundaries.
Breakouts:
Use DZL alerts to capture momentum as price breaks or retests dynamic support/resistance zones.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence:
Combine CPR and pivot levels from multiple timeframes for higher-probability entries and exits.
All calculations and logic are fully open.
Expansion Triangle [TradingFinder] MegaPhone Broadening🔵 Introduction
The Expanding Triangle, also known as the Broadening Formation, is one of the key technical analysis patterns that clearly reflects growing market volatility, increasing indecision among participants, and the potential for sharp price explosions.
This pattern is typically defined by a sequence of higher highs and lower lows, forming within two diverging trendlines. Unlike traditional triangles that converge to a breakout point, the expanding triangle pattern becomes wider over time, leaving no precise apex for a breakout to occur.
From a price action perspective, the pattern represents a prolonged tug-of-war between buyers and sellers, where neither side has taken control yet. Each aggressive swing opens the door to new opportunities whether it's a trend reversal, range trading, or a momentum breakout. This dual nature makes the pattern highly versatile across market conditions, from exhausted trend ends to volatile consolidation zones.
The custom-built indicator for this pattern uses a combination of smart algorithms and detailed analysis of swing dynamics to automatically detect expanding triangles and highlight low-risk entry points.
Traders can use this tool to capitalize on high-probability setups from shorting near the upper edge of the structure with confirmation, to trading bearish breakouts during trend continuations, or entering long positions near the lower boundary during bullish reversals. The chart examples included in this article demonstrate these three highly practical trading scenarios in live market conditions.
A major advantage of this indicator lies in its structural filtering engine, which analyzes the behavior of each price leg in the triangle. With four adjustable filter levels from Very Aggressive, which highlights all potential patterns, to Very Defensive, which only triggers when price actually touches the triangle's trendlines the indicator ensures that only structurally sound and verified setups appear on the chart, reducing noise and false signals significantly.
Long Setup :
Short Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The pattern typically forms in conditions of heightened uncertainty and volatility, where price swings generate a series of higher highs and lower lows. The expanding triangle consists of three key legs bounded by diverging trendlines. The indicator intelligently analyzes each leg's direction and angle to determine whether a valid pattern is forming.
At the core of the indicator’s logic is its leg filtering system, which controls the quality of the pattern and filters out weak or noisy setups. Four structural filter modes are available to suit different trading styles and risk preferences. In Very Aggressive mode, filters are disabled, and the indicator detects any pattern purely based on the sequence of swing points.
This mode is ideal for traders who want to see everything and apply their own discretion.
In Aggressive mode, the indicator checks whether each new leg extends no more than twice the length of the previous one. If a leg overshoots excessively, the structure is invalidated.
In Defensive mode, the filter enforces a minimum movement requirement each leg must move at least 2% of the previous one. This prevents the formation of shallow, weak patterns that visually resemble triangles but lack substance.
The strictest setting, Very Defensive, combines all previous filters and additionally requires the price to physically touch the triangle’s trendlines before issuing a signal. This ensures that setups only appear when real market interaction with key structural levels has occurred, not based on assumptions or geometry alone. This mode is ideal for traders seeking maximum precision and minimal risk.
🟣 Bullish Setup
A bullish setup within the Expanding Triangle pattern occurs when price revisits the lower support boundary after a series of broad swings typically near the third leg of the formation. This area often represents a shift in momentum, where sellers begin to lose strength and buyers prepare to take control.
Ideally, the setup is accompanied by a bullish reversal candle (e.g. doji, pin bar, or engulfing) near the lower trendline. If the Very Defensive filter is active, the indicator will only issue a signal if price makes a confirmed touch on the trendline and reacts from that level. This significantly improves signal accuracy and filters out premature entries.
After confirmation, traders may choose to enter a long position on the bullish candle or shortly afterward. A logical stop-loss is placed just below the recent swing low within the pattern. The target can be set at or near the upper trendline, or projected using the full height of the triangle added to the breakout point. On higher timeframes, this reversal often marks the beginning of a strong uptrend.
🟣 Bearish Setup
A bearish setup forms when price climbs toward the upper resistance trendline, usually as the third leg completes. This is where buyers often begin to show exhaustion, and sellers step in with strength providing an ideal low-risk entry point for short positions.
As with the bullish setup, if the Candle Confirmation filter is enabled, the indicator will only show a signal when a bearish reversal candle forms at the point of contact. If Defensive or Very Defensive filters are also active, the setup must meet strict criteria of proportionate leg movement and an actual trendline touch to qualify.
Once confirmed, traders can enter on the reversal candle, placing a stop-loss slightly above the recent high. The target can be set at the lower trendline or calculated based on the triangle's full height, projected downward. This setup is particularly useful at the end of weak bullish trends or in volatile market tops.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logic Settings
Pivot Period : Defines how many bars are analyzed to identify swing highs and lows. Higher values detect larger, slower structures, while lower values respond to faster patterns. The default value of 13 offers a balanced sensitivity.
Pattern Filter :
Very Aggressive : Detects all patterns based on point sequence with no structural checks.
Aggressive : Ensures each leg is no more than 2x the size of the previous one.
Defensive : Requires each leg to be at least 2% the size of the previous leg.
Very Defensive : The strictest level; only confirms patterns when price touches trendlines.
Candle Confirmation : When enabled, the indicator requires a valid confirmation candle (doji, pin bar, engulfing) at the interaction point with the trendline before issuing a signal. This reduces false entries and improves entry precision.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert : Enables alerts for SSS.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
🔵 Conclusion
The Expanding Triangle pattern, with its wide structure and volatility-driven nature, represents chaos but also opportunity. For traders who can read its behavior, it provides some of the most powerful setups for reversals, breakouts, and range-based trades. While the pattern may seem messy at first glance, it is built on clear logic and when properly detected, it offers high-probability opportunities.
This indicator doesn’t just draw expanding triangles it intelligently evaluates their structural quality, validates price interaction through candle confirmation, and allows the trader to fine-tune the detection logic through adjustable filter levels. Whether you’re a reversal trader looking for a turning point, or a breakout trader hunting momentum, this tool adapts to your strategy.
In volatile or uncertain markets, where fakeouts and sudden shifts are common, this indicator can become a cornerstone of your trading system helping you turn volatility into structured, high-quality opportunities.

Plots dynamic support and resistance zones on swing pivots with an ATR‑based buffer. Anchored only when pivots are confirmed, the zones stay close to current price levels—ideal for spotting liquidity runs or traps.
🔧 How It Works
Detects swing highs and lows using ta.pivothigh() / ta.pivotlow() with a user‑defined lookback.
After a pivot is confirmed, calculates BSL/SSL zone = pivot ± (ATR * margin).
Zones update only on confirmed pivots—no repainting on open bars.
⚙️ Inputs
Lookback: bars to confirm pivots (e.g. 10–20).
ATR Margin Multiplier: buffer width (e.g. 1.25).
✅ Benefits
Structure‑focused: Zones align with real swing points.
Responsive yet stable: Tight ATR margin keeps zones precise, only updating on valid pivots.
Clean visuals: Two uncluttered zones—easy to interpret.
🛠 How to Use
Detect near‑zone bounce entries or exits on 4H/1D charts.
Combine with trend or volume indicators for stronger setups.
Use zones to identify potential stop‑run, liquidity re‑tests, or range turns.
⚠️ Notes & Disclaimers
Zones base off historical pivots; may lag until confirmed.
No future-looking data—relying entirely on closing bar confirmation.
Use alongside a complete trading framework; this is not a standalone signal.

Gann Swing PointsIndicator Logic
This is a GANN-style swing indicator that classifies bars based on their high/low structure relative to the previous bar.
I strongly encourage you to replay bars on Tradingview using this indicator to get a sense of how it creates pivot (or swing) points
Bar Classification:
Up-Bar (direction: 'up'): Higher High and Higher Low (HH/HL)
Down-Bar (direction: 'down'): Lower High and Lower Low (LH/LL)
Outside-Bar (generates 2 directions):
Green: 'down' then 'up'
Red: 'up' then 'down'
Inside-Bar: No direction generated (HL/LH)
Swing Line Logic
The swing line continues in the current direction until n opposite directions are detected.
n is the "n-direction" parameter (commonly set to 2, so 2 consecutive opposite direction is needed to turn the swing)
When n opposing directions occur, the swing turns, creating a pivot point
Inside bar is ignored, so e.g up-bar -> inside-bar -> up-bar generates "up", "up" direction
A top pivot is formed when the swing turns down
A bottom pivot is formed when it turns up
Note: This swing logic is inherently lagging — it only confirms tops/bottoms after the fact
This swing structure gives the system a clear and noise-resistant way to identify pivot points (swing-points)
Auto AI Trendlines [TradingFinder] Clustering & Filtering Trends🔵 Introduction
Auto AI trendlines Clustering & Filtering Trends Indicator, draws a variety of trendlines. This auto plotting trendline indicator plots precise trendlines and regression lines, capturing trend dynamics.
Trendline trading is the strongest strategy in the financial market.
Regression lines, unlike trendlines, use statistical fitting to smooth price data, revealing trend slopes. Trendlines connect confirmed pivots, ensuring structural accuracy. Regression lines adapt dynamically.
The indicator’s ascending trendlines mark bullish pivots, while descending ones signal bearish trends. Regression lines extend in steps, reflecting momentum shifts. As the trend is your friend, this tool aligns traders with market flow.
Pivot-based trendlines remain fixed once confirmed, offering reliable support and resistance zones. Regression lines, adjusting to price changes, highlight short-term trend paths. Both are vital for traders across asset classes.
🔵 How to Use
There are four line types that are seen in the image below; Precise uptrend (green) and downtrend (red) lines connect exact price extremes, while Pivot-based uptrend and downtrend lines use significant swing points, both remaining static once formed.
🟣 Precise Trendlines
Trendlines only form after pivot points are confirmed, ensuring reliability. This reduces false signals in choppy markets. Regression lines complement with real-time updates.
The indicator always draws two precise trendlines on confirmed pivot points, one ascending and one descending. These are colored distinctly to mark bullish and bearish trends. They remain fixed, serving as structural anchors.
🟣 Dynamic Regression Lines
Regression lines, adjusting dynamically with price, reflect the latest trend slope for real-time analysis. Use these to identify trend direction and potential reversals.
Regression lines, updated dynamically, reflect real-time price trends and extend in steps. Ascending lines are green, descending ones orange, with shades differing from trendlines. This aids visual distinction.
🟣 Bearish Chart
A Bullish State emerges when uptrend lines outweigh or match downtrend lines, with recent upward momentum signaling a potential rise. Check the trend count in the state table to confirm, using it to plan long positions.
🟣 Bullish Chart
A Bearish State is indicated when downtrend lines dominate or equal uptrend lines, with recent downward moves suggesting a potential drop. Review the state table’s trend count to verify, guiding short position entries. The indicator reflects this shift for strategic planning.
🟣 Alarm
Set alerts for state changes to stay informed of Bullish or Bearish shifts without constant monitoring. For example, a transition to Bullish State may signal a buying opportunity. Toggle alerts On or Off in the settings.
🟣 Market Status
A table summarizes the chart’s status, showing counts of ascending and descending lines. This real-time overview simplifies trend monitoring. Check it to assess market bias instantly.
Monitor the table to track line counts and trend dominance.
A higher count of ascending lines suggests bullish bias. This helps traders align with the prevailing trend.
🔵 Settings
Number of Trendlines : Sets total lines (max 10, min 3), balancing chart clarity and trend coverage.
Max Look Back : Defines historical bars (min 50) for pivot detection, ensuring robust trendlines.
Pivot Range : Sets pivot sensitivity (min 2), adjusting trendline precision to market volatility.
Show Table Checkbox : Toggles display of a table showing ascending/descending line counts.
Alarm : Enable or Disable the alert.
🔵 Conclusion
The multi slopes indicator, blending pivot-based trendlines and dynamic regression lines, maps market trends with precision. Its dual approach captures both structural and short-term momentum.
Customizable settings, like trendline count and pivot range, adapt to diverse trading styles. The real-time table simplifies trend monitoring, enhancing efficiency. It suits forex, stocks, and crypto markets.
While trendlines anchor long-term trends, regression lines track intraday shifts, offering versatility. Contextual analysis, like price action, boosts signal reliability. This indicator empowers data-driven trading decisions.
