BE-Fib Channel 2 Sided Trading█ Overview:
"BE-Fib Channel 2 Sided Trading" indicator is built with the thought of 2 profound setups named "Cup & Handle (C&H)" and "Fibonacci Channel Trading (FCT)" with the context of "day trading" or with a minimum holding period.
█ Similarities, Day Trading Context & Error Patterns:
While the known fact is that both C&H and FCT provide setups with lesser risk with bigger returns, they both share the similar "Base Pattern".
Note: Inverse of the above Image shall switch the setups between long vs short.
Since the indicator is designed for smaller time-frame candles, there may be instances where the "base pattern" does not visually resemble a Cup & Handle (C&H) pattern. However, patterns are validated using pivot points. The points labeled "A" and "C" can be equal or slightly slanted. Settings of the Indicator allows traders a flexibility to control the angle of these points to spot the strategies according to set conditions. Therefore, understanding the nuances of these patterns is crucial for effective decision-making.
█ 2 Sided Edge: FCT suggests to take trade closer to the yellow line to get better RR ratio. this leaves a small chance of doubt as to; what if price is intended to break the Yellow line thereby activating the C&H.
Wait for the confirmation is a Big FOMO with a compromised RR.
Hence, This indicator is designed to handle both the patterns based on the strength, FIFO and pattern occurring delay.
█ How to Use this Indicator:
Step 1: Enable the Show Sample Sensitivity option to understand the angle of yellow line shown in the sample image. By enabling this option, On the last bar you shall see 4 lines being plotted depicting the max angle which is acceptable for both long and short trades.
Note: Angle can be controlled via setting "Sensitivity".
Higher Sensitivity --> Higher Setup identification --> can lead to failed setups due to 2 sided trading.
Lower Sensitivity --> Lower Setup identification --> can increase the changes of being right.
Step 2: Adjust the look back & look forward periods which shall be used for identifying patterns.
Note: Smaller values can lead to more setups being identified but can hamper the performance of the indicator while increasing the chances of failures. larger values identifies more significant setup but leads to more waiting period thereby compromising on the RR.
Step 3: Adjust the Base Range.
Note: Smaller values can lead to more setups being identified but can hamper the performance of the indicator while increasing the chances of failures. larger values identifies more significant setup but leads to more Risk on play.
Step 4: set the Entry level for FCT & Set the SL for Both FCT & C&H and Target Reward ratio for C&H.
█ Features of Indicator & How it works:
1. Patterns are being identified using Pivot Points method.
2. Tracks & validates both the setups simultaneously on every candle and traded one at a time based on FIFO, New setups found in-between, Defined Entry Levels while on wait for the other pattern to get activated.
3. Alerts added for trade events.
4. FCT setups are generally traded with trailed SL level and increasing Target level on every completed bar. while C&H has the standard SL & TP level with no Trail SL option.

Cup & HandleHi, here is my take on 'Cup & Handle'
Pivot Points - ph (highest points in a certain period) are stored in an array
When there is a new ph , previous ph's are compared to the latest one.
A temporary test line is drawn between these 2 points.
The script checks if a close (between these 2 points) doesn't break above this test line.
(test line is deleted afterwards)
If it doesn't, and the '% max breaks' are not breached, 2 circle shaped lines are drawn
(Top & Bottom line of the cup) which forms the Cup, together with the Handle.
The red box (Handle) is the maximum 33-50% retracement (% of cup height)
-> Only the latest pattern is shown, enabling 'Show Cup labels' shows the position of cup patterns in history.
They can be visualised by using 'Bar Replay'
'% max breaks' -> 'maximum highs/lows breaking through the Top/Bottom line
(% of bars between left & right extreme points of the Cup)
Settings:
- 'Left', 'Right' -> regulates Pivot Point values
- 'PP back' -> max lookback for Pivot High
More explanation can be found in following print screens,
or by checking the tooltips in the settings
Cheers!
Cup FinderHello All,
This script finds the Cups and you can use it while analysing the symbols. it creates circle and channel for the potential Cups and checks the number of bars included by the channel, if included bars is equal or greater than the value you set then it shows the cup.
The Options:
"Number for Bars to search" : Maximum length of a Cup
"Channel Width of the Cup" : Tate by the channel width of highest/lowest levels in last 300 bars, by default it's 5%
"Check for Breakout" : if there is Cup then it checks Close or High/Low is used a source for breaokuts, usuful while cheking historical bars
"Contained Bar Rate %" : after channel is created the script checks number of bars included by the channel of the Cup, you can set rate of included bars by this option
"S how Channels of Cups ": if you enable this option then you can see the channels around the Cups and set it as you wish
and there are some other options for labeling/removing old Cups and for coloring
Here you can see how channel looks like:
Cup with different colors:
P.S. This is an experimental work and sorry for no explanation in the script.
in the future if I have time I will try to write a script for Cup&Handle
This script is also an example to calculate and draw circles :)
Enjoy!
