High/Low Location Frequency [LuxAlgo]

6 Nov

The High/Low Location Frequency tool provides users with probabilities of tops and bottoms at user-defined periods, along with advanced filters that offer deep and objective market information about the likelihood of a top or bottom in the market.

🔶 USAGE



There are four different time periods that traders can select for analysis of probabilities:

• HOUR OF DAY: Probability of occurrence of top and bottom prices for each hour of the day
  
• DAY OF WEEK: Probability of occurrence of top and bottom prices for each day of the week
  
• DAY OF MONTH: Probability of occurrence of top and bottom prices for each day of the month
  
• MONTH OF YEAR: Probability of occurrence of top and bottom prices for each month
  

The data is displayed as a dashboard, which users can position according to their preferences. The dashboard includes useful information in the header, such as the number of periods and the date from which the data is gathered. Additionally, users can enable active filters to customize their view. The probabilities are displayed in one, two, or three columns, depending on the number of elements.

🔹 Advanced Filters





Advanced Filters allow traders to exclude specific data from the results. They can choose to use none or all filters simultaneously, inputting a list of numbers separated by spaces or commas. However, it is not possible to use both separators on the same filter.

The tool is equipped with five advanced filters:

• HOURS OF DAY: The permitted range is from 0 to 23.
  
• DAYS OF WEEK: The permitted range is from 1 to 7.
  
• DAYS OF MONTH: The permitted range is from 1 to 31.
  
• MONTHS: The permitted range is from 1 to 12.
  
• YEARS: The permitted range is from 1000 to 2999.
  

It should be noted that the DAYS OF WEEK advanced filter has been designed for use with tickers that trade every day, such as those trading in the crypto market. In such cases, the numbers displayed will range from 1 (Sunday) to 7 (Saturday). Conversely, for tickers that do not trade over the weekend, the numbers will range from 1 (Monday) to 5 (Friday).

To illustrate the application of this filter, we will exclude results for Mondays and Tuesdays, the first five days of each month, January and February, and the years 2020, 2021, and 2022. Let us review the results:

• DAYS OF WEEK: `2,3` or `2 3` (for crypto) or `1,2` or `1 2` (for the rest)
  
• DAYS OF MONTH: `1,2,3,4,5` or `1 2 3 4 5`
  
• MONTHS: `1,2` or `1 2`
  
• YEARS: `2020,2021,2022` or `2020 2021 2022`
  

🔹 High Probability Lines



The tool enables traders to identify the next period with the highest probability of a top (red) and/or bottom (green) on the chart, marked with two horizontal lines indicating the location of these periods.

🔹 Top/Bottom Labels and Periods Highlight



The tool is capable of indicating on the chart the upper and lower limits of each selected period, as well as the commencement of each new period, thus providing traders with a convenient reference point.
