Internal Pivot Pattern [LuxAlgo]

17 053
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
