Buy The Dip - ENGThis script implements a grid trading strategy for long positions in the USDT market. The core idea is to place a series of buy limit orders at progressively lower prices below an initial entry point, aiming to lower the average entry price as the price drops. It then aims to exit the entire position when the price rises a certain percentage above the average entry price.
Here's a detailed breakdown:
1. Strategy Setup (`strategy` function):
`'거미줄 자동매매 250227'`: The name of the strategy.
`overlay = true`: Draws plots and labels directly on the main price chart.
`pyramiding = 15`: Allows up to 15 entries in the same direction (long). This is essential for grid trading, as it needs to open multiple buy orders.
`initial_capital = 600`: Sets the starting capital for backtesting to 600 USDT.
`currency = currency.USDT`: Specifies the account currency as USDT.
`margin_long/short = 0`: Doesn't define specific margin requirements (might imply spot trading logic or rely on exchange defaults if used live).
`calc_on_order_fills = false`: Strategy calculations happen on each bar's close, not just when orders fill.
2. Inputs (`input`):
Core Settings:
`lev`: Leverage (default 10x). Used to calculate position sizes.
`Investment Percentage %`: Percentage of total capital to allocate to the initial grid (default 80%).
`final entry Percentage %`: Percentage of the *remaining* capital (100 - `Investment Percentage %`) to use for the "semifinal" entry (default 50%). The rest goes to the "final" entry.
`Price Adjustment Length`: Lookback period (default 4 bars) to determine the initial `maxPrice`.
`price range`: The total percentage range downwards from `maxPrice` where the grid orders will be placed (default -10%, meaning 10% down).
`tp`: Take profit percentage above the average entry price (default 0.45%).
`semifinal entry price percent`: Percentage drop from `maxPrice` to trigger the "semifinal" larger entry (default -12%).
`final entry price percent`: Percentage drop from `maxPrice` to trigger the "final" larger entry (default -15%).
Rounding & Display:
`roundprice`, `round`: Decimal places for rounding price and quantity calculations.
`texts`, `label_style`: User interface preferences for text size and label appearance on the chart.
Time Filter:
`startTime`, `endTime`: Defines the date range for the backtest.
3. Calculations & Grid Setup:
`maxPrice`: The highest price point for the grid setup. Calculated as the lowest low of the previous `len` bars only if no trades are open. If trades are open, it uses the entry price of the very first order placed in the current sequence (`strategy.opentrades.entry_price(0)`).
`minPrice`: The lowest price point for the grid, calculated based on `maxPrice` and `range1`.
`totalCapital`: The amount of capital (considering leverage and `per1`) allocated for the main grid orders.
`coinRatios`: An array ` `. This defines the *relative* size ratio for each of the 11 grid orders. Later orders (at lower prices) will be progressively larger.
`totalRatio`: The sum of all ratios (66).
`positionSizes`: An array calculated based on `totalCapital` and `coinRatios`. It determines the actual quantity (size) for each of the 11 grid orders.
4. Order Placement Logic (`strategy.entry`):
Initial Grid Orders:
Runs only if within the specified time range and no position is currently open (`strategy.opentrades == 0`).
A loop places 11 limit buy orders (`Buy 1` to `Buy 11`).
Prices are calculated linearly between `maxPrice` and `minPrice`.
Order sizes are taken from the `positionSizes` array.
Semifinal & Final Entries:
Two additional, larger limit buy orders are placed simultaneously with the grid orders:
`semifinal entry`: At `maxPrice * (1 - semifinal / 100)`. Size is based on `per2`% of the capital *not* used by the main grid (`1 - per1`).
`final entry`: At `maxPrice * (1 - final / 100)`. Size is based on the remaining capital (`1 - per2`% of the unused portion).
5. Visualization (`line.new`, `label.new`, `plot`, `plotshape`, `plotchar`):
Grid Lines & Labels:
When a position is open (`strategy.opentrades > 0`), horizontal lines and labels are drawn for each of the 11 grid order prices and the "final" entry price.
Lines extend from the bar where the *first* entry occurred.
Labels show the price and planned size for each level.
Dynamic Coloring: If the price drops below a grid level, the corresponding line turns green, and the label color changes, visually indicating that the level has been reached or filled.
Plotted Lines:
`maxPrice` (initial high point for the grid).
`strategy.position_avg_price` (current average entry price of the open position, shown in red).
Target Profit Price (`strategy.position_avg_price * (1 + tp / 100)`, shown in green).
Markers:
A flag marks the `startTime`.
A rocket icon (`🚀`) appears below the bar where the `final entry` triggers.
A stop icon (`🛑`) appears below the bar where the `semifinal entry` triggers.
6. Exit Logic (`strategy.exit`, `strategy.entry` with `qty=0`):
Main Take Profit (`Full Exit`):
Uses `strategy.entry('Full Exit', strategy.short, qty = 0, limit = target2)`. This places a limit order to close the entire position (`qty=0`) at the calculated take profit level (`target2 = avgPrice * (1 + tp / 100)`). Note: Using `strategy.entry` with `strategy.short` and `qty=0` is a way to close a long position, though `strategy.exit` is often clearer. This exit seems intended to apply whenever any part of the grid position is open.
First Order Trailing Stop (`1st order Full Exit`):
Conditional: Only active if `trail` input is true AND the *last* order filled was "Buy 1" (meaning only the very first grid level was entered).
Uses `strategy.exit` with `trail_points` and `trail_offset` based on ATR values to implement a trailing stop loss/profit mechanism for this specific scenario.
This trailing stop order is cancelled (`strategy.cancel`) if any subsequent grid orders ("Buy 2", etc.) are filled.
Final/Semifinal Take Profit (`final Full Exit`):
Conditional: Only active if more than 11 entries have occurred (meaning either the "semifinal" or "final" entry must have triggered).
Uses `strategy.exit` to place a limit order to close the entire position at the take profit level (`target3 = avgPrice * (1 + tp / 100)`).
7. Information Display (Tables & UI Label):
`statsTable` (Top Right):
A comprehensive table displaying grouped information:
Market Info (Entry Point, Current Price)
Position Info (Avg Price, Target Price, Unrealized PNL $, Unrealized PNL %, Position Size, Position Value)
Strategy Performance (Realized PNL $, Realized PNL %, Initial/Total Balance, MDD, APY, Daily Profit %)
Trade Statistics (Trade Count, Wins/Losses, Win Rate, Cumulative Profit)
`buyAvgTable` (Bottom Left):
* Shows the *theoretical* entry price and average position price if trades were filled sequentially up to each `buy` level (buy1 to buy10). It uses hardcoded percentage drops (`buyper`, `avgper`) based on the initial `maxPrice` and `coinRatios`, not the dynamically changing actual average price.
`uiLabel` (Floating Label on Last Bar):
Updates only on the most recent bar (`barstate.islast`).
Provides real-time context when a position is open: Size, Avg Price, Current Price, Open PNL ($ and %), estimated % drop needed for the *next* theoretical buy (based on `ui_gridStep` input), % rise needed to hit TP, and estimated USDT profit at TP.
Shows "No Position" and basic balance/trade info otherwise.
In Summary:
This is a sophisticated long-only grid trading strategy. It aims to:
1. Define an entry range based on recent lows (`maxPrice`).
2. Place 11 scaled-in limit buy orders within a percentage range below `maxPrice`.
3. Place two additional, larger buy orders at deeper percentage drops (`semifinal`, `final`).
4. Calculate the average entry price as orders fill.
5. Exit the entire position for a small take profit (`tp`) above the average entry price.
6. Offer a conditional ATR trailing stop if only the first order fills.
7. Provide extensive visual feedback through lines, labels, icons, and detailed information tables/UI elements.
Keep in mind that grid strategies can perform well in ranging or slowly trending markets but can incur significant drawdowns if the price trends strongly against the position without sufficient retracements to hit the take profit. The leverage (`lev`) input significantly amplifies both potential profits and losses.
Pivot
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.

Trend Direction (OTC)Trend Direction (OTC)
Welcome, and thank you for your interest in the Trend Direction (OTC) indicator. This is a private, invite-only tool designed to provide a clear and objective view of market structure and trend dynamics.
Overview
The primary goal of Trend Direction (OTC) is to declutter your charts and help you visually identify the prevailing market trend through a sophisticated analysis of swing points. By automatically plotting key structural points in the market, it helps traders see the bigger picture and make more informed decisions based on classic price action principles.
This indicator is suitable for all markets (Forex, Crypto, Stocks, Indices) and works on any timeframe.
Features
Intelligent Swing Detection: Automatically identifies and plots significant market swing points.
Market Structure Labels (HH, LL, LH, HL): Get instant context on the trend's health. The indicator clearly labels swing points as Higher Highs (HH), Lower Lows (LL), Lower Highs (LH), and Higher Lows (HL), allowing you to see trend continuation and potential reversals at a glance.
Trend Dashboard: A simple, color-coded dashboard in the corner of your chart provides a real-time assessment of the trend, classifying it as "Confirmed," "Unconfirmed". This helps filter out market noise and provides an extra layer of confirmation.
Customizable Display: You have full control over the visual elements.
Adjust the sensitivity of the swing detection to focus on either short-term or long-term trends.
Toggle the visibility of trend lines and labels.

How to Use
The Trend Direction (OTC) indicator is designed to be intuitive. Here’s a simple guide to interpreting its signals:
Identifying an Uptrend: Look for a consistent series of HH (Higher Highs) and HL (Higher Lows). The dashboard will likely show a "Bullish" status. A break of this pattern (e.g., the formation of an LH or LL) could signal a potential change in trend.
Identifying a Downtrend: Look for a consistent series of LH (Lower Highs) and LL (Lower Lows). The dashboard will likely show a "Bearish" status. A break of this pattern (e.g., the formation of an HL or HH) could signal that the downtrend is weakening.
Ranging or Choppy Markets: In sideways markets, you will see an alternating series of swings without clear direction. The dashboard will likely read "Neutral" or flip between "Unconfirmed" states. This can be useful for avoiding low-probability setups.
Settings
Swing Detection:

Pivot Liquidity Sweep [scalpmeister]📌 Pivot Liquidity Sweep
Scalp-oriented, liquidity sweep-based advanced signal and strategy indicator.
This indicator analyzes the price's sweeping of significant pivot levels and the subsequent breakouts to generate long/short signals based on different logics. It is sensitive to both classic sweep logic and strong reversal candles. Additionally, it visually marks liquidity gathering zones, offering excellent opportunities especially for scalp and intraday traders.
⚙️ Features and Strategy Types
🟢 Automatic Pivot Detection:
Pivot high/low levels are detected and stored based on the number of left and right bars.
🔴 Sweep Detection (Stop Hunt):
If the price violates a pivot level with a wick and closes inside, it is considered a sweep (liquidity cleaning). Strategies activate after this sweep.
🧠 5 Different Signal Styles:
SweepBreak:
It is expected that the extreme (high/low) level of the sweeping candle is broken with a close.
PivotBreak:
After the sweep, the first newly formed pivot in the trend direction is expected to break. (It is dynamically determined and drawn on the chart.)
StrongSweep:
It is sufficient if the candle following the sweep surpasses the previous candle with a single candle. No additional breakout is expected.
StrongCandle:
Strong momentum candles measured with a special RSI calculation are taken into account. It considers strong opposite-direction candles formed shortly after a pivot sweep.
ReversalCandleSweep:
Reversal candles that close in the opposite direction after a sweep (e.g., a red close on a sweep candle formed at the top or a green close at the bottom) are directly considered as signals.
📐 Technical Details:
Signals are triggered only once (triggered control).
Sweep lines (green/red), Long and Short lines (Orange)
Strong candles are filtered using an RSI-momentum-based measurement system (StrongCandle).
Sweep and breakout zones are dynamically invalidated. That is, if the zones are violated by the price, the signals and lines are automatically canceled.
🎯 Who Should Use It?
Professional traders working with liquidity zones
Scalp and intraday strategy practitioners
Those focused on stop hunts, sweeps, and reversal zones

---
You have an advanced visual tool designed for traders who want to identify and manage key price levels with maximum precision.
This script detects protected pivots (significant highs and lows) and marks them with horizontal lines on the chart. These lines automatically extend for a fixed number of bars or until price invalidates the level with a closing break.
---
🚀 What makes this indicator special?
---
✅ Protected pivot detection:
The indicator identifies protected highs and lows using a fixed pivot strength
✅ Wick break detection (liquidity sweep visualization):
When a wick crosses the pivot level **without the candle closing beyond the level, the indicator automatically changes the line’s color and style.
👉 This immediately shows the trader that the level was tested but remains structurally valid.
✅ Highly customizable visuals:
* Choose whether to show color for protected highs, lows, or wick break levels.
* Set your own colors, line styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and line widths.
---
### 🌟 Why is wick break detection so valuable?
---
💡 Instant context on price action:
No need to manually check every candle to see if a level was barely tested. The indicator changes the line’s appearance automatically, so you can focus on decisions.
💡 Clear distinction between untouched levels and tested levels:
* A level with no wick test is pristine support/resistance.
* A level tested by a wick but not invalidated is still valid — but may have been swept for liquidity.
💡 Crucial for precision trading strategies:
This is particularly important for strategies that rely on:
✅ Liquidity sweeps / stop hunts.
✅ Reversals from tested zones.
✅ Smart Money Concepts (SMC).
✅ ICT concepts, breakers, Quasimodo, BOS/MSS.
The wick break visualization helps filter false breakouts and highlights areas where institutional players may have stepped in.
💡 Avoid premature exits or entries:**
The color/style change tells you a level was tested but not broken, so you avoid overreacting to wick activity.
---
### ⚡ Example use case**
Imagine a protected low line:
🔹 Price dips and its wick touches the level — the line changes color (e.g. violet solid line).
🔹 The level is still valid because the close didn’t break it.
🔹 This could signal a stop hunt or liquidity grab, with a possible reversal opportunity right at that level.
---
### 🧭 **Why most pivot indicators don’t offer this**
Most pivot indicators:
❌ Simply mark the level and remove it after a close break.
❌ Don’t distinguish between a wick test and a true break.
🌟 **This indicator does — giving traders an extra layer of market insight.**
---
### ⚠ **Disclaimer**
This indicator is a visual aid to help identify key levels and price reactions. It does **not** generate buy or sell signals and should be used alongside your trading analysis and strategy.

HOG Liquidity HunterHOG Liquidity Hunter – Pivot‑Based Liquidity Zones
📌 Overview
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)
CPR by DSKThis CPR (Central Pivot Range) indicator is designed to provide multi-timeframe insights and simplify trend analysis for traders of all levels. Key features include:
1. Dynamic CPR Levels
Automatically adapts and displays CPR levels based on the current chart timeframe (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly).
Useful for identifying intraday or swing trading opportunities.
2. Market Sentiment Summary Table
A compact summary table indicates the market bias (Bullish/Bearish) using the relative position of the price to the Daily, Weekly, and Monthly CPR Pivots.
Helps you instantly assess the prevailing trend across key timeframes.
3. Target Achievement Status
The summary also highlights if any CPR-based targets or key levels have been hit, offering valuable confirmation for trade setups and exits.
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking a quick, visual overview of market structure and trend strength using the well-known CPR method.
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.

Liquidity ZonesWhat It Does:
Liquidity Zones identifies key areas where institutional traders target stop orders. The indicator automatically detects significant price swings and maps the upper and lower wick zones where liquidity pools form. These zones represent high-probability areas where price is likely to return to collect stop orders before continuing its next move.
How To Use:
Identify Key Zones:
-Red zones highlight Buy Side Liquidity (resistance areas)
-Green zones highlight Sell Side Liquidity (support areas)
Trading Opportunities:
-Enter trades when price respects these zones
-Watch for zone breaks and re-tests for continuation signals
-Use alerts to notify you when price enters a zone or when new zones form
Optimization Tips:
-Adjust lookback periods based on volatility (higher for calmer markets)
-Enable auto-threshold for adaptive sensitivity to market conditions (default setting)
-Most effective on timeframes 4H and above
The indicator tracks when zones are broken and automatically removes them when price returns, providing a clean, uncluttered view of the most relevant liquidity areas on your chart.
Vietnamese Market Structure With CountersThis indicator is designed to track Market Structure with Swing-Low Breakdowns and Swing-High Breakups specifically tailored for the Vietnamese stock market, though it can be applied elsewhere too. By default, it uses a 10-period EMA to dynamically detect key turning points in price action and count significant breakdowns or breakups from previous swing levels.
As an open source, you can modify the source code to match your needs.
What it does:
Detects when price breaks below previous swing lows or above previous swing highs.
Plots swing levels for both highs and lows.
Displays labeled counters on the chart to show how many consecutive breakdowns or breakups have occurred.
Helps traders identify trend shifts and possible exhaustion in moves.
Why it's useful:
This tool is great for visually tracking market momentum and structure changes — especially in trending or volatile environments. It emphasizes structure over indicators, helping you understand price behavior in a simplified, intuitive way.

MTS📊 MTS (Murrey Math System) Trading Strategy for TradingView 📊
Introduction:
This script implements the Murrey Math System (MTS), a market analysis tool based on a set of pivot points and price ranges, designed to help traders identify key levels of support and resistance.
MTS calculates key price levels based on historical price swings and helps identify price targets, stop-loss levels, and potential breakout zones.
The strategy also includes an adaptive bias panel, showing buy or sell suggestions based on current price action relative to Murrey Math levels.
Key Components:
1. Pivot Calculation and Conditions:
Pivot Lookback & Spikeyness Index:
The pivots: lookback/forward input defines how far back (and forward) the script looks to identify potential pivot points (high and low). A smaller value focuses on more recent swings, while larger values consider a broader range.
The Spikeyness Index (atrMult) allows you to adjust sensitivity to market spikes, utilizing the Average True Range (ATR) to detect sharp price movements that could indicate potential turning points.
Pivot Conditions:
isPivHigh and isPivLow detect local high and low pivot points, respectively.
Spiky Conditions: The spikyH and spikyL conditions filter out pivots that do not meet the spikiness criteria, which is based on ATR and moving averages.
2. Swing High and Swing Low Identification:
The script identifies and stores previous swing highs (HR_prev) and lows (LR_prev), updating them based on the current market structure.
3. Proprietary Calculation:
The propCalc input enables a proprietary calculation method for determining higher or lower levels beyond the typical Murrey Math levels, offering a more adaptive approach to price targets and support/resistance levels.
4. Murrey Math Lines (MML):
MML Calculation:
The code calculates a set of Murrey Math Lines (EightEight, FourEight, ZeroEight), which are key price levels based on the range of the price over a given time period. These levels represent major support and resistance zones, with the EightEight line indicating extremely overbought conditions and ZeroEight signaling deeply oversold conditions.
Level and Extension Lines:
The script also plots additional levels and extensions based on the range between HR and LR, representing key support/resistance levels. These levels are dynamically drawn on the chart, offering clear insights into where price might reverse or break out.
Strategy Logic:
- Breakout and Breakdown:
The Bias Box panel dynamically displays a trade bias, either suggesting to "Buy on Dip" or "Sell on Rise," depending on whether the current price is above or below the midpoint of the Murrey Math range (BEP). This bias is calculated using the market's relationship to the Murrey Math Levels.
- Buy on Dip: When the price is below the midpoint (BEP), suggesting the market is in a buying zone.
- Sell on Rise: When the price is above the midpoint, suggesting the market is in a selling zone.
- Stop-Loss and Target Hints:
The stop-loss (SL) and target levels are dynamically set based on the position relative to HR and LR:
For Buy on Dip: SL is set at LR Low, Target is set at HR High.
For sell on Rise: SL is set at HR Low, Target is set at LR High.
2. Historical and Current Levels:
The script compares the most recent Murrey Math levels with historical levels. This helps identify any shifts or changes in the market structure, enhancing the trader's ability to adapt to new trends.
- Current Levels:
The current levels are drawn from the most recent HR and LR values, with corresponding extensions showing possible breakout or breakdown zones.
- Historical Levels:
Historical levels are drawn in a "ghost" style, helping traders visualize past market conditions and potential support/resistance zones that could still influence price movement.
- Trade Examples:
Example 1: Buy on Dip
a. Scenario:
Price is below the midpoint (BEP), and the bias suggests a buy on dip.
The trader looks for a rebound from the LR Low level, with a target at the HR High.
b. Entry:
Buy when the price reaches the LR Low level.
c. Exit:
Take profit when the price hits the HR High.
d. Stop-Loss:
Place stop-loss at the LR Low.
Example 2: Sell on Rise
a. Scenario:
Price is above the midpoint (BEP), and the bias suggests a sell on rise.
The trader looks for a pullback to the HR Low, with a target at the LR High.
b. Entry:
Sell when the price reaches the HR High level.
c. Exit:
Take profit when the price hits the LR Low.
d. Stop-Loss:
Place stop-loss at the HR Low.
Key Features:
Bias Panel: A table in the top-right corner showing the current market bias (Buy on Dip, Sell on Rise, or Neutral).
Displays real-time trade direction and risk information, such as stop-loss and target hints.
Dynamic Level Adjustment: As the price moves, the script dynamically updates the key levels (HR, LR, and Murrey Math lines), keeping traders aware of the most recent market structure.
Visualization Tools:
The chart is populated with a series of lines and labels that indicate the critical price levels for trading.
Support/Resistance Lines: Each key level is marked with different colors for quick recognition.
Extensions: Additional lines are plotted based on price projections, indicating where the market could potentially move.
Note:
Please note that this is an educational purpose idea, any action/trade taken will be user's own responsibility.
Enjoy!

PivotBox by Nadeem Al-QahwiPivotBox by Nadeem Al-Qahwi
General Idea of the Indicator: The PivotBox indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify key reversal points in the market based on pivot highs and pivot lows. The indicator helps traders to detect breakout and breakdown opportunities based on past price movements, guiding informed trading decisions.
Indicator Functions:
Key Reversal Points (Pivot Points):
The indicator identifies pivot highs and pivot lows over a user-defined period, helping traders spot significant price levels in the market.
These points are plotted on the chart, showing where market reversals may occur.
Breakouts and Breakdowns:
The indicator identifies breakouts when the price moves above a pivot high or breakdowns when the price falls below a pivot low.
Once these breakouts or breakdowns are detected, the indicator draws lines indicating the critical price levels for visual reference.
Trend Levels using Zero-Lag MA:
The indicator includes an option to add a Zero-Lag Moving Average (Zero-Lag MA) to display the overall trend in the market. This moving average helps filter out noise and identify the general market direction, improving trade decision-making.
Line Styles:
The pivot points (highs and lows) are displayed using different line styles, such as solid, dashed, or dotted lines. The user can customize the style based on their preference.
These lines represent the breakouts or breakdown levels in the market.
Alerts:
The indicator can activate alerts when a breakout or breakdown occurs. Users can customize the alerts to notify them when specific conditions are met, ensuring that they do not miss significant price movements.
Input Variables:
Period (prd): The time period over which the pivot highs and lows are calculated. The user can define this period based on their trading strategy.
Max Breakout Length (bo_len): The maximum time duration for a breakout or breakdown to occur. This variable helps determine the relevance of the price movement.
Threshold Rate (cwidthu): The width percentage that helps to define the price area for breakouts and breakdowns.
Line Style (lstyle): Allows the user to choose the style of lines used to display the pivot points (solid, dashed, or dotted).
Minimum Number of Tests (mintest): The minimum number of tests required before a breakout or breakdown is considered valid.
How the Indicator Works:
The indicator first calculates the pivot highs and lows based on the user-defined period (Period).
It then tracks price movements to detect if a breakout or breakdown occurs.
When a breakout or breakdown is confirmed, the indicator draws lines at these levels and shows the user the new price direction.
Alerts can be triggered based on predefined conditions such as when a breakout or breakdown occurs.
The Zero-Lag MA helps the user visualize the trend, adding another layer of analysis to the market movements.
Key Benefits:
Accurate Reversal Point Analysis: Helps traders identify key entry and exit points based on precise technical analysis.
Breakout and Breakdown Detection: Allows traders to spot breakout and breakdown opportunities in real-time.
Customizable Alerts: Users can set up alerts to notify them when a breakout or breakdown happens, ensuring they don't miss important market moves.
Flexible Customization: The indicator offers various options to customize the display (line styles, alerts, trendlines), catering to different trading strategies.
Volume NodesVolume Nodes Indicator:
What This Indicator Does:
The Volume Nodes indicator identifies and visualizes statistically significant volume events on your chart, helping you identify important price levels where substantial trading activity has occurred. Unlike standard volume indicators, Volume Nodes:
Uses statistical analysis (z-scores) to identify truly abnormal volume bars
Calculates accurate buy/sell volume ratios by analyzing all lower timeframe data
Identifies the Volume Point of Control (VPOC) for high volume areas
Visualizes significant volume ranges as they extend across the chart
Tracks when price interacts with these important levels
Key Features:
High Volume Detection: Highlights bars with unusually high volume (z-score above threshold)
Low Volume Detection: Highlights bars with unusually low volume (z-score below threshold)
VPOC Lines: Horizontal lines showing the exact price level with maximum volume concentration
Volume Range Fills: Shaded areas showing the entire price range with significant volume
Accurate Volume Metrics: Shows true buy/sell volume ratios or delta percentages derived from lower timeframe data
How to Use It in Your Trading: **Move to front in the visual order on chart**
Step 1: Identify Important Volume Zones
High Volume Bars (green/red candles) indicate where significant buying or selling has occurred
VPOC Lines extending from these bars show you the exact price level with highest volume
Range Fills show you the entire zone where significant volume occurred
Step 2: Use These Levels for Trading Decisions
Support/Resistance: VPOC lines often act as support or resistance levels
Breakout Validation: Breakouts on high volume are more likely to be valid
Low Volume Warning: Low volume bars (yellow) often indicate indecision or potential reversals
Trading with Volume Flow: Use the buy/sell ratio or delta % to confirm the strength and direction of moves
Step 3: Monitor Price Interaction with Volume Zones
When price approaches a VPOC line, watch for reaction (bounce or breakout)
When price enters a volume range area, increased volatility often follows
When price crosses a VPOC line, the line changes transparency indicating it's been tested
Tips for Optimal Use
Higher Timeframes: The indicator works exceptionally well on higher timeframes (4H, daily, weekly) where volume patterns are more significant
Range Trading: Use volume nodes to identify the boundaries of trading ranges
Combine with Price Action: Look for price action confirmation (rejections, engulfing patterns) at VPOC levels
Multiple Timeframe Analysis: Compare volume nodes across different timeframes to find confluent levels
Alert Setup: Set up alerts for when price enters important volume zones or crosses VPOC lines
Reversal Signals: High volume bars with significant wicks often signal exhaustion points where smart money is transferring positions. Bullish candles with long upper wicks suggest sellers absorbing buying pressure at highs, while bearish candles with long lower wicks indicate buyers stepping in at lows - both potentially signaling momentum shifts that precede reversals.
The indicator is particularly valuable for identifying levels where large players have been active in the market and are likely to defend or act again in the future.
Probability Grid [LuxAlgo]The Probability Grid tool allows traders to see the probability of where and when the next reversal would occur, it displays a 10x10 grid and/or dashboard with the probability of the next reversal occurring beyond each cell or within each cell.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool displays deciles (percentiles from 0 to 90), users can enable, disable and modify each percentile, but two of them must always be enabled or the tool will display an error message alerting of it.
The use of the tool is quite simple, as shown in the chart above, the further the price moves on the grid, the higher the probability of a reversal.
In this case, the reversal took place on the cell with a probability of 9%, which means that there is a probability of 91% within the square defined by the last reversal and this cell.
🔹 Grid vs Dashboard
The tool can display a grid starting from the last reversal and/or a dashboard at three predefined locations, as shown in the chart above.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Raw Data vs Normalized Data
By default the tool displays the normalized data, this means that instead of using the raw data (price delta between reversals) it uses the returns between each reversal, this is useful to make an apples to apples comparison of all the data in the dataset.
This can be seen in the left side of the chart above (BTCUSD Daily chart) where normalize data is disabled, the percentiles from 0 to 40 overlap and are indistinguishable from each other because the tool uses the raw price delta over the entire bitcoin history, with normalize data enabled as we can see in the right side of the chart we can have a fair comparison of the data over the entire history.
🔹 Probability Beyond or Within Each Cell
Two different probability modes are available, the default mode is Probability Beyond Each Cell, the number displayed in each cell is the probability of the next reversal to be located in the area beyond the cell, for example, if the cell displays 20%, it means that in the area formed by the square starting from the last reversal and ending at the cell, there is an 80% probability and outside that square there is a 20% probability for the location of the next reversal.
The second probability mode is the probability within each cell, this outlines the chance that the next reversal will be within the cell, as we can see on the right chart above, when using deciles as percentiles (default settings), each cell has the same 1% probability for the 10x10 grid.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: The maximum length in bars used to identify a swing
Maximum Reversals: Maximum number of reversals included in calculations
Normalize Data: Use returns between swings instead of raw price
Probability: Choose between two different probability modes: beyond and inside each cell
Percentiles: Enable/disable each of the ten percentiles and select the percentile number and line style
🔹 Dashboard
Show Dashboard: Enable or disable the dashboard
Position: Choose dashboard location
Size: Choose dashboard size
🔹 Style
Show Grid: Enable or disable the grid
Size: Choose grid text size
Colors: Choose grid background colors
Show Marks: Enable/disable reversal markers
Cycle Theory + Frequency TheoryCycle Theory attempts to predict, through volatility, support/resistance points where the market may reach/reverse a trend. This theory's calculation is based on a reference candle that the user chooses, usually the first candle of the day/week's session. From this point on, if the level is broken upwards or downwards, the 1st Cycle begins with the same distance between the high/low or open/close of the reference candle. From the 2nd Cycle onwards, the size becomes the sum of all the last cycles formed, and so on.
Frequency Theory is similar, but its levels always have the same size as the high/low or open/close of the reference candle.
StatPivot- Dynamic Range Analyzer - indicator [PresentTrading]Hello everyone! In the following few open scripts, I would like to share various statistical tools that benefit trading. For this time, it is a powerful indicator called StatPivot- Dynamic Range Analyzer that brings a whole new dimension to your technical analysis toolkit.
This tool goes beyond traditional pivot point analysis by providing comprehensive statistical insights about price movements, helping you identify high-probability trading opportunities based on historical data patterns rather than subjective interpretations. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or position trader, StatPivot's real-time percentile rankings give you a statistical edge in understanding exactly where current price action stands within historical contexts.
Welcome to share your opinions! Looking forward to sharing the next tool soon!
█ Introduction and How it is Different
StatPivot is an advanced technical analysis tool that revolutionizes retracement analysis. Unlike traditional pivot indicators that only show static support/resistance levels, StatPivot delivers dynamic statistical insights based on historical pivot patterns.
Its key innovation is real-time percentile calculation - while conventional tools require new pivot formations before updating (often too late for trading decisions), StatPivot continuously analyzes where current price stands within historical retracement distributions.
Furthermore, StatPivot provides comprehensive statistical metrics including mean, median, standard deviation, and percentile distributions of price movements, giving traders a probabilistic edge by revealing which price levels represent statistically significant zones for potential reversals or continuations. By transforming raw price data into statistical insights, StatPivot helps traders move beyond subjective price analysis to evidence-based decision making.
█ Strategy, How it Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 Pivot Point Detection and Analysis
The core of StatPivot's functionality begins with identifying significant pivot points in the price structure. Using the parameters left and right, the indicator locates pivot highs and lows by examining a specified number of bars to the left and right of each potential pivot point:
Copyp_low = ta.pivotlow(low, left, right)
p_high = ta.pivothigh(high, left, right)
For a point to qualify as a pivot low, it must have left higher lows to its left and right higher lows to its right. Similarly, a pivot high must have left lower highs to its left and right lower highs to its right. This approach ensures that only significant turning points are recognized.
🔶 Percentage Change Calculation
Once pivot points are identified, StatPivot calculates the percentage changes between consecutive pivot points:
For drops (when a pivot low is lower than the previous pivot low):
CopydropPercent = (previous_pivot_low - current_pivot_low) / previous_pivot_low * 100
For rises (when a pivot high is higher than the previous pivot high):
CopyrisePercent = (current_pivot_high - previous_pivot_high) / previous_pivot_high * 100
These calculations quantify the magnitude of each market swing, allowing for statistical analysis of historical price movements.
🔶 Statistical Distribution Analysis
StatPivot computes comprehensive statistics on the historical distribution of drops and rises:
Average (Mean): The arithmetic mean of all recorded percentage changes
CopyavgDrop = array.avg(dropValues)
Median: The middle value when all percentage changes are arranged in order
CopymedianDrop = array.median(dropValues)
Standard Deviation: Measures the dispersion of percentage changes from the average
CopystdDevDrop = array.stdev(dropValues)
Percentiles (25th, 75th): Values below which 25% and 75% of observations fall
Copyq1 = array.get(sorted, math.floor(cnt * 0.25))
q3 = array.get(sorted, math.floor(cnt * 0.75))
VaR95: The maximum expected percentage drop with 95% confidence
Copyvar95D = array.get(sortedD, math.floor(nD * 0.95))
Coefficient of Variation (CV): Measures relative variability
CopycvD = stdDevDrop / avgDrop
These statistics provide a comprehensive view of market behavior, enabling traders to understand the typical ranges and extreme moves.
🔶 Real-time Percentile Ranking
StatPivot's most innovative feature is its real-time percentile calculation. For each current price, it calculates:
The percentage drop from the latest pivot high:
CopycurrentDropPct = (latestPivotHigh - close) / latestPivotHigh * 100
The percentage rise from the latest pivot low:
CopycurrentRisePct = (close - latestPivotLow) / latestPivotLow * 100
The percentile ranks of these values within the historical distribution:
CopyrealtimeDropRank = (count of historical drops <= currentDropPct) / total drops * 100
This calculation reveals exactly where the current price movement stands in relation to all historical movements, providing crucial context for decision-making.
🔶 Cluster Analysis
To identify the most common retracement zones, StatPivot performs a cluster analysis by dividing the range of historical drops into five equal intervals:
CopyrangeSize = maxVal - minVal
For each interval boundary:
Copyboundaries = minVal + rangeSize * i / 5
By counting the number of observations in each interval, the indicator identifies the most frequently occurring retracement zones, which often serve as significant support or resistance areas.
🔶 Expected Price Targets
Using the statistical data, StatPivot calculates expected price targets:
CopytargetBuyPrice = close * (1 - avgDrop / 100)
targetSellPrice = close * (1 + avgRise / 100)
These targets represent statistically probable price levels for potential entries and exits based on the average historical behavior of the market.
█ Trade Direction
StatPivot functions as an analytical tool rather than a direct trading signal generator, providing statistical insights that can be applied to various trading strategies. However, the data it generates can be interpreted for different trade directions:
For Long Trades:
Entry considerations: Look for price drops that reach the 70-80th percentile range in the historical distribution, suggesting a statistically significant retracement
Target setting: Use the Expected Sell price or consider the average rise percentage as a reasonable target
Risk management: Set stop losses below recent pivot lows or at a distance related to the statistical volatility (standard deviation)
For Short Trades:
Entry considerations: Look for price rises that reach the 70-80th percentile range, indicating an unusual extension
Target setting: Use the Expected Buy price or average drop percentage as a target
Risk management: Set stop losses above recent pivot highs or based on statistical measures of volatility
For Range Trading:
Use the most common drop and rise clusters to identify probable reversal zones
Trade bounces between these statistically significant levels
For Trend Following:
Confirm trend strength by analyzing consecutive higher pivot lows (uptrend) or lower pivot highs (downtrend)
Use lower percentile retracements (20-30th percentile) as entry opportunities in established trends
█ Usage
StatPivot offers multiple ways to integrate its statistical insights into your trading workflow:
Statistical Table Analysis: Review the comprehensive statistics displayed in the data table to understand the market's behavior. Pay particular attention to:
Average drop and rise percentages to set reasonable expectations
Standard deviation to gauge volatility
VaR95 for risk assessment
Real-time Percentile Monitoring: Watch the real-time percentile display to see where the current price movement stands within the historical distribution. This can help identify:
Extreme movements (90th+ percentile) that might indicate reversal opportunities
Typical retracements (40-60th percentile) that might continue further
Shallow pullbacks (10-30th percentile) that might represent continuation opportunities in trends
Support and Resistance Identification: Utilize the plotted pivot points as key support and resistance levels, especially when they align with statistically significant percentile ranges.
Target Price Setting: Use the expected buy and sell prices calculated from historical averages as initial targets for your trades.
Risk Management: Apply the statistical measurements like standard deviation and VaR95 to set appropriate stop loss levels that account for the market's historical volatility.
Pattern Recognition: Over time, learn to recognize when certain percentile levels consistently lead to reversals or continuations in your specific market, and develop personalized strategies based on these observations.
█ Default Settings
The default settings of StatPivot have been carefully calibrated to provide reliable statistical analysis across a variety of markets and timeframes, but understanding their effects allows for optimal customization:
Left Bars (30) and Right Bars (30): These parameters determine how pivot points are identified. With both set to 30 by default:
A pivot low must be the lowest point among 30 bars to its left and 30 bars to its right
A pivot high must be the highest point among 30 bars to its left and 30 bars to its right
Effect on performance: Larger values create fewer but more significant pivot points, reducing noise but potentially missing important market structures. Smaller values generate more pivot points, capturing more nuanced movements but potentially including noise.
Table Position (Top Right): Determines where the statistical data table appears on the chart.
Effect on performance: No impact on analytical performance, purely a visual preference.
Show Distribution Histogram (False): Controls whether the distribution histogram of drop percentages is displayed.
Effect on performance: Enabling this provides visual insight into the distribution of retracements but can clutter the chart.
Show Real-time Percentile (True): Toggles the display of real-time percentile rankings.
Effect on performance: A critical setting that enables the dynamic analysis of current price movements. Disabling this removes one of the key advantages of the indicator.
Real-time Percentile Display Mode (Label): Chooses between label display or indicator line for percentile rankings.
Effect on performance: Labels provide precise information at the current price point, while indicator lines show the evolution of percentile rankings over time.
Advanced Considerations for Settings Optimization:
Timeframe Adjustment: Higher timeframes generally benefit from larger Left/Right values to identify truly significant pivots, while lower timeframes may require smaller values to capture shorter-term swings.
Volatility-Based Tuning: In highly volatile markets, consider increasing the Left/Right values to filter out noise. In less volatile conditions, lower values can help identify more potential entry and exit points.
Market-Specific Optimization: Different markets (forex, stocks, commodities) display different retracement patterns. Monitor the statistics table to see if your market typically shows larger or smaller retracements than the current settings are optimized for.
Trading Style Alignment: Adjust the settings to match your trading timeframe. Day traders might prefer settings that identify shorter-term pivots (smaller Left/Right values), while swing traders benefit from more significant pivots (larger Left/Right values).
By understanding how these settings affect the analysis and customizing them to your specific market and trading style, you can maximize the effectiveness of StatPivot as a powerful statistical tool for identifying high-probability trading opportunities.
Fibonacci - DolphinTradeBot
OVERVIEW
The 'Fibonacci - DolphinTradeBot' indicator is a Pine Script-based tool for TradingView that dynamically identifies key Fibonacci retracement levels using ZigZag price movements. It aims to replicate the Fibonacci Retracement tool available in TradingView’s drawing tools. The indicator calculates Fibonacci levels based on directional price changes, marking critical retracement zones such as 0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, and 1.0 on the chart. These levels are visualized with lines and labels, providing traders with precise areas of potential price reversals or trend continuation.
HOW IT WORKS ?
The indicator follows a zigzag formation. After a large swing movement, when new swings are formed without breaking the upper and lower levels, it places Fibonacci levels at the beginning and end points of the major swing movement."
▪️(Bullish) Structure :High → HigherLow → LowerHigh
▪️(Bearish) Structure :Low → LowerHigh → HigherLow
▪️When Fibonacci retracement levels are determined, a "📌" mark appears on the chart.
▪️If the price closes outside of these levels, a "❌" mark will appear.
USAGE
This indicator is designed to plot Fibonacci levels within an accumulation zone following significant price movements, helping you identify potential support and resistance. You can adjust the pivot periods to customize the zigzag settings to your preference. While classic Fibonacci levels are used by default, you also have the option to input custom levels and assign your preferred colors.
Set the Fibonacci direction option to "upward" to detect only bullish structures, "downward" to detect only bearish structures, and "both" to see both at the same time.
"To view past levels, simply enable the ' Show Previous Levels ' option, and to display the zigzag lines, activate the ' Show Zigzag ' setting."
ALERTS
The indicator, by default, triggers an alarm when both a level is formed and when a level is broken. However, if you'd like, you can select the desired level from the " Select Level " section in the indicator settings and set the alarm based on one of the conditions below.
▪️ cross-up → If the price breaks the Fibonacci level to the upside.
▪️ cross-down → If the price breaks the Fibonacci level to the downside.
▪️ cross-any → If the price breaks the Fibonacci level in any direction.
Quarterly Theory ICT 03 [TradingFinder] Precision Swing Points🔵 Introduction
Precision Swing Point (PSP) is a divergence pattern in the closing of candles between two correlated assets, which can indicate a potential trend reversal. This structure appears at market turning points and highlights discrepancies between the price behavior of two related assets.
PSP typically forms in key timeframes such as 5-minute, 15-minute, and 90-minute charts, and is often used in combination with Smart Money Concepts (SMT) to confirm trade entries.
PSP is categorized into Bearish PSP and Bullish PSP :
Bearish PSP : Occurs when an asset breaks its previous high, and its middle candle closes bullish, while the correlated asset closes bearish at the same level. This divergence signals weakness in the uptrend and a potential price reversal downward.
Bullish PSP : Occurs when an asset breaks its previous low, and its middle candle closes bearish, while the correlated asset closes bullish at the same level. This suggests weakness in the downtrend and a potential price increase.
🟣 Trading Strategies Using Precision Swing Point (PSP)
PSP can be integrated into various trading strategies to improve entry accuracy and filter out false signals. One common method is combining PSP with SMT (divergence between correlated assets), where traders identify divergence and enter a trade only after PSP confirms the move.
Additionally, PSP can act as a liquidity gap, meaning that price tends to react to the wick of the PSP candle, making it a favorable entry point with a tight stop-loss and high risk-to-reward ratio. Furthermore, PSP combined with Order Blocks and Fair Value Gaps in higher timeframes allows traders to identify stronger reversal zones.
In lower timeframes, such as 5-minute or 15-minute charts, PSP can serve as a confirmation for more precise entries in the direction of the higher timeframe trend. This is particularly useful in scalping and intraday trading, helping traders execute smarter entries while minimizing unnecessary stop-outs.
🔵 How to Use
PSP is a trading pattern based on divergence in candle closures between two correlated assets. This divergence signals a difference in trend strength and can be used to identify precise market turning points. PSP is divided into Bullish PSP and Bearish PSP, each applicable for long and short trades.
🟣 Bullish PSP
A Bullish PSP forms when, at a market turning point, the middle candle of one asset closes bearish while the correlated asset closes bullish. This discrepancy indicates weakness in the downtrend and a potential price reversal upward.
Traders can use this as a signal for long (buy) trades. The best approach is to wait for price to return to the wick of the PSP candle, as this area typically acts as a liquidity level.
f PSP forms within an Order Block or Fair Value Gap in a higher timeframe, its reliability increases, allowing for entries with tight stop-loss and optimal risk-to-reward ratios.
🟣 Bearish PSP
A Bearish PSP forms when, at a market turning point, the middle candle of one asset closes bullish while the correlated asset closes bearish. This indicates weakness in the uptrend and a potential price decline.
Traders use this pattern to enter short (sell) trades. The best entry occurs when price retests the wick of the PSP candle, as this level often acts as a resistance zone, pushing price lower.
If PSP aligns with a significant liquidity area or Order Block in a higher timeframe, traders can enter with greater confidence and place their stop-loss just above the PSP wick.
Overall, PSP is a highly effective tool for filtering false signals and improving trade entry precision. Combining PSP with SMT, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps across multiple timeframes allows traders to execute higher-accuracy trades with lower risk.
🔵 Settings
Mode :
2 Symbol : Identifies PSP and PCP between two correlated assets.
3 Symbol : Compares three assets to detect more complex divergences and stronger confirmation signals.
Second Symbol : The second asset used in PSP and correlation calculations.
Third Symbol : Used in three-symbol mode for deeper PSP and PCP analysis.
Filter Precision X Point : Enables or disables filtering for more precise PSP and PCP detection. This filter only identifies PSP and PCP when the base asset's candle qualifies as a Pin Bar.
Trend Effect : By changing the Trend Effect status to "Off," all Pin bars, whether bullish or bearish, are displayed regardless of the current market trend. If the status remains "On," only Pin bars in the direction of the main market trend are shown.
Bullish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Lower Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Lower Shadow to Higher Shadow" settings, you can customize your bullish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bullish Pin bars.
Bearish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Higher Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Higher Shadow to Lower Shadow" settings, you can customize your bearish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bearish Pin bars.
🔵 Conclusion
Precision Swing Point (PSP) is a powerful analytical tool in Smart Money trading strategies, helping traders identify precise market turning points by detecting divergences in candle closures between correlated assets. PSP is classified into Bullish PSP and Bearish PSP, each playing a crucial role in detecting trend weaknesses and determining optimal entry points for long and short trades.
Using the PSP wick as a key liquidity level, integrating it with SMT, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps, and analyzing higher timeframes are effective techniques to enhance trade entries. Ultimately, PSP serves as a complementary tool for improving entry accuracy and reducing unnecessary stop-outs, making it a valuable addition to Smart Money trading methodologies.
