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.

🔵 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'.

Reversal IndicatorWhat does this indicator do?
This indicator is designed to help traders spot potential reversal points in the market by combining multiple conditions:
✅ Multi-Timeframe RSI – Checks RSI on a lower timeframe (like 5m) to see if the market is oversold or overbought.
✅ Higher Timeframe SMA Filter – Uses a higher timeframe SMA (like 1h) as a trend filter, so signals only trigger in the direction of the bigger trend.
✅ Candle Pattern Confirmation – Looks for bullish or bearish engulfing candles to confirm price exhaustion before signaling a reversal.
When all these conditions align, the indicator plots a triangle under/above the candle to highlight a possible reversal.
Why is this useful?
Many traders struggle with false RSI signals or candle patterns that fail because they don’t respect the larger trend.
This indicator filters out weak setups by requiring alignment between:
A lower timeframe RSI oversold/overbought condition,
A higher timeframe trend filter (SMA),
And a strong candle reversal pattern.
This multi-layer approach helps avoid chasing every RSI dip and focuses only on high-probability reversal zones.
How does it work?
Bullish reversal signal → appears when RSI on the lower TF is oversold, price is still above the higher TF SMA (trend still intact), AND a bullish engulfing candle forms.
Bearish reversal signal → appears when RSI on the lower TF is overbought, price is below the higher TF SMA, AND a bearish engulfing candle forms.
When all conditions match, the indicator plots a triangle under the candle for bullish signals and above the candle for bearish signals.
How to use it?
Choose your timeframes:
A timeframe for trend filtering (e.g. 1h).
A timeframe for RSI (e.g. 4h).
NOTICE: THE RSI TIMEFRAME SHOULD BE GREATER THEN THE TIMEFRAME FOR THE SMA
Otherwise it will not generate that much signals.
Watch for signals ONLY in the direction of the higher trend.
Use the signals as potential reversal points, not as guaranteed entries. Combine with your own confluence.
Optionally set alerts for bullish or bearish reversal conditions so you never miss a setup.
Customization
✅ Choose your RSI length & overbought/oversold levels.
✅ Select which timeframes you want for SMA & RSI.
✅ Toggle the higher TF SMA display on/off.
✅ Adjust signal appearance (triangles).

Premium Fibonacci Buy/Sell [MasoodPro]OVERVIEW
This script plots Fibonacci Entry Bands, a trend-following and mean-reversion hybrid system built around dynamic volatility-adjusted bands scaled using key Fibonacci levels. It calculates a smoothed basis line and overlays multiple bands at fixed Fibonacci multipliers of either ATR or standard deviation. Depending on the trend direction, specific upper or lower bands become active, offering a clear framework for entry timing, trend identification, and profit-taking zones.
CONCEPTS
The core idea is to use Fibonacci levels—0.618, 1.0, 1.618, and 2.618—as multipliers on a volatility measure to form layered price bands around a trend-following moving average. Trends are defined by whether the basis is rising or falling. The trend determines which side of the bands is emphasized: upper bands for downtrends, lower bands for uptrends. This approach captures both directional bias and extreme price extensions. Take-profit logic is built in via crossovers relative to the outermost bands, scaled by user-selected aggressiveness.
FEATURES
Basis Line – A double EMA smoothing of the source defines trend direction and acts as the central mean.
snapshot
Volatility Bands – Four levels per side (based on selected ATR or stdev) mark the Fibonacci bands. These become visible only when trend direction matches the side (e.g., only lower bands plot in an uptrend).
snapshot
Bar Coloring – Bars are shaded with adjustable transparency depending on distance from the basis, with color intensity helping gauge overextension.
snapshot
Entry Arrows – A trend shift triggers either a long or short signal, with a marker at the outermost band with ▲/▼ signs.
snapshot
Take-Profit Crosses – If price rejects near the outer band (based on aggressiveness setting), a cross appears marking potential profit-taking.
snapshot
Bounce Signals – Minor pullbacks that respect the basis line are marked with triangle arrows, hinting at continuation setups.
snapshot
Customization – Users can toggle bar coloring, signal markers, and select between ATR/stdev as well as take-profit aggressiveness.
Alerts – All major signals, including entries, take-profits, and bounces, are available as alert conditions.
Universal Renko Bars by SiddWolfUniversal Renko Bars or UniRenko Bars is an overlay indicator that applies the logic of Renko charting directly onto a standard candlestick chart. It generates a sequence of price-driven bricks, where each new brick is formed only when the price moves a specific amount, regardless of time. This provides a clean, price-action-focused visualization of the market's trend.
WHAT IS UNIVERSAL RENKO BARS?
For years, traders have faced a stark choice: the clean, noise-free world of Renko charts, or the rich, time-based context of Candlesticks. Choosing Renko meant giving up your favorite moving averages, volume profiles, and the fundamental sense of time. Choosing Candlesticks meant enduring the market noise that often clouds true price action.
But what if you didn't have to choose?
Universal Renko Bars is a revolutionary indicator that ends this dilemma. It's not just another charting tool; it's a powerful synthesis that overlays the pure, price-driven logic of Renko bricks directly onto your standard candlestick chart. This hybrid approach gives you the best of both worlds:
❖ The Clarity of Renko: By filtering out the insignificant noise of time, Universal Renko reveals the underlying trend with unparalleled clarity. Up trends are clean successions of green bricks; down trends are clear red bricks. No more guesswork.
❖ The Context of Candlesticks: Because the Renko logic is an overlay, you retain your time axis, your volume data, and full compatibility with every other time-based indicator in your arsenal (RSI, MACD, Moving Averages, etc.).
The true magic, however, lies in its live, Unconfirmed Renko brick. This semi-transparent box is your window into the current bar's real-time struggle. It grows, shrinks, and changes color with every tick, showing you exactly how close the price is to confirming the trend or forcing a reversal. It’s no longer a lagging indicator; it’s a live look at the current battle between buyers and sellers.
Universal Renko Bars unifies these two powerful charting methods, transforming your chart into a more intelligent, noise-free, and predictive analytical canvas.
HOW TO USE
To get the most out of Universal Renko Bars, here are a few tips and a full breakdown of the settings.
Initial Setup for the Best Experience
For the cleanest possible view, it's highly recommended that you hide the body of your standard candlesticks, that shows only the skelton of the candle. This allows the Renko bricks to become the primary focus of your chart.
→ Double click on the candles and uncheck the body checkbox.
Settings Breakdown
The indicator is designed to be powerful yet intuitive. The settings are grouped to make customization easy.
First, What is a "Tick"?
Before we dive in, it's important to understand the concept of a "Tick." In Universal Renko, a Tick is not the same as a market tick. It's a fundamental unit of price movement that you define. For example, if you set the Tick Size to $0.50, then a price move of $1.00 is equal to 2 Ticks. This is the core building block for all Renko bricks. Tick size here is dynamically determined by the settings provided in the indicator.
❖ Calculation Method (The "Tick Size" Engine)
This section determines the monetary value of a single "Tick."
`Calculation Method` : Choose your preferred engine for defining the Tick Size.
`ATR Based` (Default): The Tick Size becomes dynamic, based on market volatility (Average True Range). Bricks will get larger in volatile markets and smaller in quiet ones. Use the `ATR 14 Multiplier` to control the sensitivity.
`Percentage` : The Tick Size is a simple percentage of the current asset price, controlled by the `Percent Size (%)` input.
`Auto` : The "set it and forget it" mode. The script intelligently calculates a Tick Size based on the asset's price. Use the `Auto Sensitivity` slider to make these automatically calculated bricks thicker (value > 1.0) or thinner (value < 1.0).
❖ Parameters (The Core Renko Engine)
This group controls how the bricks are constructed based on the Tick Size.
`Tick Trend` : The number of "Ticks" the price must move in the same direction to print a new continuation brick. A smaller value means bricks form more easily.
`Tick Reversal` : The number of "Ticks" the price must move in the opposite direction to print a new reversal brick. This is typically set higher than `Tick Trend` (e.g., double) to filter out minor pullbacks and market noise.
`Open Offset` : Controls the visual overlap of the bricks. A value of `0` creates gapless bricks that start where the last one ended. A value of `2` (with a `Tick Reversal` of 4) creates the classic 50% overlap look.
❖ Visuals (Controlling What You See)
This is where you tailor the chart to your visual preference.
`Show Confirmed Renko` : Toggles the solid-colored, historical bricks. These are finalized and will never change. They represent the confirmed past trend.
`Show Unconfirmed Renko` : This is the most powerful visual feature. It toggles the live, semi-transparent box that represents the developing brick. It shows you exactly where the price is right now in relation to the levels needed to form the next brick.
`Show Max/Min Levels` : Toggles the horizontal "finish lines" on your chart. The green line is the price target for a bullish brick, and the red line is the target for a bearish brick. These are excellent for spotting breakouts.
`Show Info Label` : Toggles the on-chart label that provides key real-time stats:
🧱 Bricks: The total count of confirmed bricks.
⏳ Live: How many chart bars the current live brick has been forming. These bars forms the Renko bricks that aren't confirmed yet. Live = 0 means the latest renko brick is confirmed.
🌲 Tick Size: The current calculated value of a single Tick.
Hover over the label for a tooltip with live RSI(14), MFI(14), and CCI(20) data for additional confirmation.
TRADING STRATEGIES & IDEAS
Universal Renko Bars isn't just a visual tool; it's a foundation for building robust trading strategies.
Trend Confirmation: The primary use is to instantly identify the trend. A series of green bricks indicates a strong uptrend; a series of red bricks indicates a strong downtrend. Use this to filter out trades that go against the primary momentum.
Reversal Spotting: Pay close attention to the Unconfirmed Brick . When a strong trend is in place and the live brick starts to fight against it—changing color and growing larger—it can be an early warning that a reversal is imminent. Wait for the brick to be confirmed for a higher probability entry.
Breakout Trading: The `Max/Min Levels` are your dynamic breakout zones. A long entry can be considered when the price breaks and closes above the green Max Level, confirming a new bullish brick. A short entry can be taken when price breaks below the red Min Level.
Confluence & Indicator Synergy: This is where Universal Renko truly shines. Overlay a moving average (e.g., 20 EMA). Only take long trades when the green bricks are forming above the EMA. Combine it with RSI or MACD; a bearish reversal brick forming while the RSI shows bearish divergence is a very powerful signal.
A FINAL WORD
Universal Renko Bars was designed to solve a fundamental problem in technical analysis. It brings together the best elements of two powerful methodologies to give you a clearer, more actionable view of the market. By filtering noise while retaining context, it empowers you to make decisions with greater confidence.

True Breakout Pattern [TradingFinder] Breakout Signal Indicator🔵 Introduction
In many market conditions, what initially appears to be a decisive breakout often turns out to be nothing more than a false breakout or fake breakout. Price breaks through a key swing level or an important support and resistance zone, only to quickly return to its previous range.
These failed breakouts, which are often the result of liquidity traps or market manipulation, serve more as a warning sign of structural weakness than confirmation of a new trend.
This indicator is designed around the concept of the fake breakout.
The logic is simple but precise : when price breaks a swing level and returns to that level within a maximum of five candles, the move is considered a false breakout. At this point, a Fibonacci retracement is applied to the recent price swing to evaluate the pullback area.
If price, within ten candles after the return to the breakout level, enters the Fibonacci zone between 0.618 and 1.0, the setup becomes valid for a potential entry. This area is identified as a long entry zone, with the stop loss placed just beyond the 1.0 level and the take profit defined based on the desired risk-to-reward ratio.
By combining accurate detection of false breakouts, analysis of price reaction to swing levels, and alignment with Fibonacci retracement logic, this framework allows traders to identify opportunities often missed by others. In a market where failed breakouts are a common and recurring phenomenon, this indicator aims to transform these traps into measurable trading opportunities.
Long Setup :
Short Setup :
🔵 How to Use
This indicator operates based on the recognition of false breakouts from structural levels in the market, specifically swing levels, and combines that with Fibonacci retracement analysis.
In this strategy, trades are only considered when price returns to the broken level within a defined time window and reacts appropriately inside a predefined Fibonacci range. Depending on the direction of the initial breakout, the system outlines two scenarios for long and short setups.
🟣 Long Setup
In the long setup, price initially breaks below a support level or swing low. If the price returns to the broken level within a maximum of five candles, the move is identified as a fake breakout.
At this stage, a Fibonacci retracement is drawn from the recent high to the low. If price, within ten candles of returning to the level, moves into the 0.618 to 1.0 Fibonacci zone, the conditions for a long entry are met.
The stop loss is placed slightly below the 1.0 level, while the take profit is set based on the trader’s preferred risk-reward ratio. This setup aims to capture deeply discounted entries at low risk, aligned with smart money reversals.
🟣 Short Setup
In the short setup, the price breaks above a resistance level or swing high. If the price returns to that level within five candles, the move is again treated as a false breakout. Fibonacci is then drawn from the recent low to the high to observe the retracement area.
Should price enter the 0.618 to 1.0 Fibonacci range within ten candles of returning, a short entry is considered valid. In this case, the stop loss is placed just above the 1.0 level, and the take profit is adjusted based on the intended risk-reward target. This method allows traders to identify high-probability short setups by focusing on failed breakouts and deep pullbacks.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logical settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Valid After Trigger Bars : Limits how many candles after a fake breakout the entry zone remains valid.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
🟣 Display settings
Displaying or not displaying swings and setting the color of labels and lines.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert False Breakout : Enables alerts for Breakout.
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
A sound understanding of the false breakout phenomenon and its relationship to structural price behavior is essential for technical traders aiming to improve precision and consistency. Many poor trading decisions stem from misinterpreting failed breakouts and entering too early into weak signals.
A structured approach, grounded in the analysis of swing levels and validated through specific price action and timing rules, can turn these misleading moves into valuable trade opportunities.
This indicator, by combining fake breakout detection with time filters and Fibonacci-based retracement zones, helps traders only engage with the market when multiple confirming factors are in alignment. The result is a strategy that emphasizes probability, risk control, and clarity in decision-making, offering a solid edge in navigating today’s volatile markets.
Momentum Trail Oscillator [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script builds a Momentum Trail Oscillator designed to measure directional momentum strength and dynamically track shifts in trend bias using a combination of smoothed price change calculations and adaptive trailing bands. The oscillator aims to help traders visualize when momentum is expanding or contracting and to identify transitions between bullish and bearish conditions.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The core idea combines two methods. First, the script calculates a normalized momentum measure by smoothing price changes relative to their absolute values, which creates a bounded oscillator that highlights whether moves are directional or choppy. Second, it uses a trailing band mechanism inspired by volatility stops, where bands adapt to the oscillator’s volatility, adjusting the thresholds that define a shift in directional bias. This dual approach seeks to address both the magnitude and persistence of momentum, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
🟠 FEATURES
The momentum calculation applies Hull Moving Averages and double EMA smoothing to price changes, producing a smooth, responsive oscillator.
The trailing bands are derived by offsetting a weighted moving average of the oscillator by a multiple of recent momentum volatility. A directional state variable tracks whether the oscillator is above or below the bands, updating when the momentum crosses these dynamic thresholds.
Overbought and oversold zones are visually marked between fixed levels (+30/+40 and -30/-40), with color fills to highlight when momentum is in extreme areas. The script plots signals on both the oscillator pane and optionally overlays markers on the main price chart for clarity.
🟠 USAGE
To use the indicator, apply it to any symbol and timeframe. The “Oscillator Length” controls how sensitive the momentum line is to recent price changes—lower values react faster, higher values smooth out noise. The “Trail Multiplier” sets how far the adaptive bands sit from the oscillator mid-line, which affects how often trend state changes occur. When the momentum line rises into the upper filled area and then crosses back below +40, it signals potential overbought exhaustion. The opposite applies for the oversold zone below -40. The plotted trailing bands switch visibility depending on the current directional state: when momentum is trending up, the lower band acts as the active trailing stop, and when trending down, the upper band becomes active. Trend changes are marked with circular symbols when the direction variable flips, and optional overlay arrows appear on the price chart to highlight overbought or oversold reversals. Traders can combine these signals with their own price action or volume analysis to confirm entries or exits.
Uptrick: Fusion Trend Reversion SystemOverview
The Uptrick: Fusion Trend Reversion System is a multi-layered indicator designed to identify potential price reversals during intraday movement while keeping traders informed of the dominant short-term trend. It blends a composite fair value model with deviation logic and a refined momentum filter using the Relative Strength Index (RSI). This tool was created with scalpers and short-term traders in mind and is especially effective on lower timeframes such as 1-minute, 5-minute, and 15-minute charts where price dislocations and quick momentum shifts are frequent.
Introduction
This indicator is built around the fusion of two classic concepts in technical trading: identifying trend direction and spotting potential reversion points. These are often handled separately, but this system merges them into one process. It starts by computing a fair value price using five moving averages, each with its own mathematical structure and strengths. These include the exponential moving average (EMA), which gives more weight to recent data; the simple moving average (SMA), which gives equal weight to all periods; the weighted moving average (WMA), which progressively increases weight with recency; the Arnaud Legoux moving average (ALMA), known for smoothing without lag; and the volume-weighted average price (VWAP), which factors in volume at each price level.
All five are averaged into a single value — the raw fusion line. This fusion acts as a dynamically balanced centerline that adapts to price conditions with both smoothing and responsiveness. Two additional exponential moving averages are applied to the raw fusion line. One is slower, giving a stable trend reference, and the other is faster, used to define momentum and cloud behavior. These two lines — the fusion slow and fusion fast — form the backbone of trend and signal logic.
Purpose
This system is meant for traders who want to trade reversals without losing sight of the underlying directional bias. Many reversal indicators fail because they act too early or signal too frequently in choppy markets. This script filters out noise through two conditions: price deviation and RSI confirmation. Reversion trades are considered only when the price moves a significant distance from fair value and RSI suggests a legitimate shift in momentum. That filtering process gives the trader a cleaner, higher-quality signal and reduces false entries.
The indicator also visually supports the trader through colored bars, up/down labels, and a filled cloud between the fast and slow fusion lines. These features make the market context immediately visible: whether the trend is up or down, whether a reversal just occurred, and whether price is currently in a high-risk reversion zone.
Originality and Uniqueness
What makes this script different from most reversal systems is the way it combines layers of logic — not just to detect signals, but to qualify and structure them. Rather than relying on a single MA or a raw RSI level, it uses a five-MA fusion to create a baseline fair value that incorporates speed, stability, and volume-awareness.
On top of that, the system introduces a dual-smoothing mechanism. It doesn’t just smooth price once — it creates two layers: one to follow the general trend and another to track faster deviations. This structure lets the script distinguish between continuation moves and possible turning points more effectively than a single-line or single-metric system.
It also uses RSI in a more refined way. Instead of just checking if RSI is overbought or oversold, the script smooths RSI and requires directional confirmation. Beyond that, it includes signal memory. Once a signal is generated, a new one will not appear unless the RSI becomes even more extreme and curls back again. This memory-based gating reduces signal clutter and prevents repetition, a rare feature in similar scripts.
Why these indicators were merged
Each moving average in the fusion serves a specific role. EMA reacts quickly to recent price changes and is often favored in fast-trading strategies. SMA acts as a long-term filter and smooths erratic behavior. WMA blends responsiveness with smoothing in a more balanced way. ALMA focuses on minimizing lag without losing detail, which is helpful in fast markets. VWAP anchors price to real trade volume, giving a sense of where actual positioning is happening.
By combining all five, the script creates a fair value model that doesn’t lean too heavily on one logic type. This fusion is then smoothed into two separate EMAs: one slower (trend layer), one faster (signal layer). The difference between these forms the basis of the trend cloud, which can be toggled on or off visually.
RSI is then used to confirm whether price is reversing with enough force to warrant a trade. The RSI is calculated over a 14-period window and smoothed with a 7-period EMA. The reason for smoothing RSI is to cut down on noise and avoid reacting to short, insignificant spikes. A signal is only considered if price is stretched away from the trend line and the smoothed RSI is in a reversal state — below 30 and rising for bullish setups, above 70 and falling for bearish ones.
Calculations
The script follows this structure:
Calculate EMA, SMA, WMA, ALMA, and VWAP using the same base length
Average the five values to form the raw fusion line
Smooth the raw fusion line with an EMA using sens1 to create the fusion slow line
Smooth the raw fusion line with another EMA using sens2 to create the fusion fast line
If fusion slow is rising and price is above it, trend is bullish

How it works
Once the script is loaded, it builds a fusion line by averaging five different types of moving averages. That line is smoothed twice into a fast and slow version. These two fusion lines form the structure for identifying trend direction and signal areas.
Trend bias is defined by the slope of the slow line. If the slow line is rising and price is above it, the market is considered bullish. If the slow line is falling and price is below it, it’s considered bearish.
Meanwhile, the script monitors how far price has moved from that slow line. If price is stretched beyond a certain distance (set by the threshold), and RSI confirms that momentum is reversing, a raw reversion signal is created. But the script only allows that signal to show if RSI has moved further into oversold or overbought territory than it did at the last signal. This blocks repetitive, weak entries. The memory is cleared only if RSI exits the zone — above 30 for bullish, below 70 for bearish.
Once a signal is accepted, a label is drawn. If the signal toggle is off, no label will be shown regardless of conditions. Bar colors are controlled separately — you can color them based on trend slope or last signal, depending on your selected mode.
Inputs
You can adjust the following settings:
MA Length: Sets the period for all moving averages used in the fusion.
Show Reversion Signals: Turns on the plotting of “Up” and “Down” labels when a reversal is confirmed.
Bar Coloring: Enables or disables colored bars based on trend or signal direction.
Show Trend Cloud: Fills the space between the fusion fast and slow lines to reflect trend bias.
Bar Color Mode: Lets you choose whether bars follow trend logic or last signal direction.
Sens 1: Smoothing speed for the slow fusion line — higher values = slower trend.
Sens 2: Smoothing speed for the fast line — lower values = faster signal response.
Deviation Threshold: Minimum distance price must move from fair value to trigger a signal check.
Features
This indicator offers:
A composite fair value model using five moving average types.
Dual smoothing system with user-defined sensitivity.
Slope-based trend definition tied to price position.
Deviation-triggered signal logic filtered by RSI reversal.
RSI memory system that blocks repetitive signals and resets only when RSI exits overbought or oversold zones.
Real-time tracking of the last signal’s direction for optional bar coloring.
Up/Down labels at signal points, visible only when enabled.
Optional trend cloud between fusion layers, visualizing current market bias.
Full user control over smoothing, threshold, color modes, and visibility.
Conclusion
The Fusion Trend-Reversion System is a tool for short-term traders looking to fade price extremes without ignoring trend bias. It calculates fair value using five diverse moving averages, smooths this into two dynamic layers, and applies strict reversal logic based on RSI deviation and momentum strength. Signals are triggered only when price is stretched and momentum confirms it with increasingly strong behavior. This combination makes the tool suitable for scalping, intraday entries, and fast market environments where precision matters.

Fibonacci Entry Bands [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script plots Fibonacci Entry Bands, a trend-following and mean-reversion hybrid system built around dynamic volatility-adjusted bands scaled using key Fibonacci levels. It calculates a smoothed basis line and overlays multiple bands at fixed Fibonacci multipliers of either ATR or standard deviation. Depending on the trend direction, specific upper or lower bands become active, offering a clear framework for entry timing, trend identification, and profit-taking zones.
CONCEPTS
The core idea is to use Fibonacci levels—0.618, 1.0, 1.618, and 2.618—as multipliers on a volatility measure to form layered price bands around a trend-following moving average. Trends are defined by whether the basis is rising or falling. The trend determines which side of the bands is emphasized: upper bands for downtrends, lower bands for uptrends. This approach captures both directional bias and extreme price extensions. Take-profit logic is built in via crossovers relative to the outermost bands, scaled by user-selected aggressiveness.
FEATURES
Basis Line – A double EMA smoothing of the source defines trend direction and acts as the central mean.
Volatility Bands – Four levels per side (based on selected ATR or stdev) mark the Fibonacci bands. These become visible only when trend direction matches the side (e.g., only lower bands plot in an uptrend).
Bar Coloring – Bars are shaded with adjustable transparency depending on distance from the basis, with color intensity helping gauge overextension.
Entry Arrows – A trend shift triggers either a long or short signal, with a marker at the outermost band with ▲/▼ signs.
Take-Profit Crosses – If price rejects near the outer band (based on aggressiveness setting), a cross appears marking potential profit-taking.
Bounce Signals – Minor pullbacks that respect the basis line are marked with triangle arrows, hinting at continuation setups.
Customization – Users can toggle bar coloring, signal markers, and select between ATR/stdev as well as take-profit aggressiveness.
Alerts – All major signals, including entries, take-profits, and bounces, are available as alert conditions.
USAGE
To use this tool, load it on your chart, adjust the inputs for volatility method and aggressiveness, and wait for entries to form on trend changes. Use TP crosses and bounce arrows as potential exit or scale-in signals.
Approximate Entropy Zones [PhenLabs]Version: PineScript™ v6
Description
This indicator identifies periods of market complexity and randomness by calculating the Approximate Entropy (ApEn) of price action. As the movement of the market becomes complex, it means the current trend is losing steam and a reversal or consolidation is likely near. The indicator plots high-entropy periods as zones on your chart, providing a graphical suggestion to anticipate a potential market direction change. This indicator is designed to help traders identify favorable times to get in or out of a trade by highlighting when the market is in a state of disarray.
Points of Innovation
Advanced Complexity Analysis: Instead of relying on traditional momentum or trend indicators, this tool uses Approximate Entropy to quantify the unpredictability of price movements.
Dynamic Zone Creation: It automatically plots zones on the chart during periods of high entropy, providing a clear and intuitive visual guide.
Customizable Sensitivity: Users can fine-tune the ‘Entropy Threshold’ to adjust how frequently zones appear, allowing for calibration to different assets and timeframes.
Time-Based Zone Expiration: Zones can be set to expire after a specific time, keeping the chart clean and relevant.
Built-in Zone Size Filter: Excludes zones that form on excessively large candles, filtering out noise from extreme volatility events.
On-Chart Calibration Guide: A persistent note on the chart provides simple instructions for adjusting the entropy threshold, making it easy for users to optimize the indicator’s performance.
Core Components
Approximate Entropy (ApEn) Calculation: The core of the indicator, which measures the complexity or randomness of the price data.
Zone Plotting: Creates visual boxes on the chart when the calculated ApEn value exceeds a user-defined threshold.
Dynamic Zone Management: Manages the lifecycle of the zones, from creation to expiration, ensuring the chart remains uncluttered.
Customizable Settings: A comprehensive set of inputs that allow users to control the indicator’s sensitivity, appearance, and time-based behavior.
Key Features
Identifies Potential Reversals: The high-entropy zones can signal that a trend is nearing its end, giving traders an early warning.
Works on Any Timeframe: The indicator can be applied to any chart timeframe, from minutes to days.
Customizable Appearance: Users can change the color and transparency of the zones to match their chart’s theme.
Informative Labels: Each zone can display the calculated entropy value and the direction of the candle on which it formed.
Visualization
Entropy Zones: Shaded boxes that appear on the chart, highlighting candles with high complexity.
Zone Labels: Text within each zone that displays the ApEn value and a directional arrow (e.g., “0.525 ↑”).
Calibration Note: A small table in the top-right corner of the chart with instructions for adjusting the indicator’s sensitivity.
Usage Guidelines
Entropy Analysis
Source: The price data used for the ApEn calculation. (Default: close)
Lookback Length: The number of bars used in the ApEn calculation. (Default: 20, Range: 10-50)
Embedding Dimension (m): The length of patterns to be compared; a standard value for financial data. (Default: 2)
Tolerance Multiplier (r): Adjusts the tolerance for pattern matching; a larger value makes matching more lenient. (Default: 0.2)
Entropy Threshold: The ApEn value that must be exceeded to plot a zone. Increase this if too many zones appear; decrease it if too few appear. (Default: 0.525)
Time Settings
Analysis Timeframe: How long a zone remains on the chart after it forms. (Default: 1D)
Custom Period (Bars): The zone’s lifespan in bars if “Analysis Timeframe” is set to “Custom”. (Default: 1000)
Zone Settings
Zone Fill Color: The color of the entropy zones. (Default: #21f38a with 80% transparency)
Maximum Zone Size %: Filters out zones on candles that are larger than this percentage of their low price. (Default: 0.5)
Display Options
Show Entropy Label: Toggles the visibility of the text label inside each zone. (Default: true)
Label Text Position: The horizontal alignment of the text label. (Default: Right)
Show Calibration Note: Toggles the visibility of the calibration note in the corner of the chart. (Default: true)
Best Use Cases
Trend Reversal Trading: Identifying when a strong trend is likely to reverse or pause.
Breakout Confirmation: Using the absence of high entropy to confirm the strength of a breakout.
Ranging Market Identification: Periods of high entropy can indicate that a market is transitioning into a sideways or choppy phase.
Limitations
Not a Standalone Signal: This indicator should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis to confirm trading signals.
Lagging Nature: Like all indicators based on historical data, ApEn is a lagging measure and does not predict future price movements with certainty.
Calibration Required: The effectiveness of the indicator is highly dependent on the “Entropy Threshold” setting, which needs to be adjusted for different assets and timeframes.
What Makes This Unique
Quantifies Complexity: It provides a numerical measure of market complexity, offering a different perspective than traditional indicators.
Clear Visual Cues: The zones make it easy to see when the market is in a state of high unpredictability.
User-Friendly Design: With features like the on-chart calibration note, the indicator is designed to be easy to use and optimize.
How It Works
Calculate Standard Deviation: The indicator first calculates the standard deviation of the source price data over a specified lookback period.
Calculate Phi: It then calculates a value called “phi” for two different pattern lengths (embedding dimensions ‘m’ and ‘m+1’). This involves comparing sequences of data points to see how many are “similar” within a certain tolerance (determined by the standard deviation and the ‘r’ multiplier).
Calculate ApEn: The Approximate Entropy is the difference between the two phi values. A higher ApEn value indicates greater irregularity and unpredictability in the data.
Plot Zones: If the calculated ApEn exceeds the user-defined ‘Entropy Threshold’, a zone is plotted on the chart.
Note: The “Entropy Threshold” is the most important setting to adjust. If you see too many zones, increase the threshold. If you see too few, decrease it.
Adaptive MACD Deluxe [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script is an advanced rework of the classic MACD indicator, designed to be more adaptive, visually informative, and customizable. It enhances the original MACD formula using a dynamic feedback loop and a correlation-based weighting system that adjusts in real-time based on how deterministic recent price action is. The signal line is flexible, offering several smoothing types including Heiken Ashi, while the histogram is color-coded with gradients to help users visually identify momentum shifts. It also includes optional normalization by volatility, allowing MACD values to be interpreted as relative percentage moves, making the indicator more consistent across different assets and timeframes.
CONCEPTS
This version of MACD introduces a deterministic weight based on R-squared correlation with time, which modulates how fast or slow the MACD adapts to price changes. Higher correlation means smoother, slower MACD responses, and low correlation leads to quicker reaction. The momentum calculation blends traditional EMA math with feedback and damping components to create a smoother, less noisy series. Heiken Ashi is optionally used for signal smoothing to better visualize short-term trend bias. When normalization is enabled, the MACD is scaled by an EMA of the high-low range, converting it into a bounded, volatility-relative indicator. This makes extreme readings more meaningful across markets.
FEATURES
The script offers six distinct options for signal line smoothing: EMA, SMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, VWMA, and a custom Heiken Ashi mode based on the MACD series. Each option provides a different response speed and smoothing behavior, allowing traders to match the indicator’s behavior to their strategy—whether it's faster reaction or reduced noise.
Normalization is another key feature. When enabled, MACD values are scaled by a volatility proxy, converting the indicator into a relative percentage. This helps standardize the MACD across different assets and timeframes, making overbought and oversold readings more consistent and easier to interpret.
Threshold zones can be customized using upper and lower boundaries, with inner zones for early warnings. These zones are highlighted on the chart with subtle background fills and directional arrows when MACD enters or exits key levels. This makes it easier to spot strong or weak reversals at a glance.
Lastly, the script includes multiple built-in alerts. Users can set alerts for MACD crossovers, histogram flips above or below zero, and MACD entries into strong or weak reversal zones. This allows for hands-free monitoring and quick decision-making without staring at the chart.
USAGE
To use this script, choose your preferred signal smoothing type, enable normalization if you want MACD values relative to volatility, and adjust the threshold zones to fit your asset or timeframe. Use the colored histogram to detect changes in momentum strength—brighter colors indicate rising strength, while faded colors imply weakening. Heiken Ashi mode smooths out noise and provides clearer signals, especially useful in choppy conditions. Use alert conditions for crossover and reversal detection, or monitor the arrow markers for entries into potential exhaustion zones. This setup works well for trend following, momentum trading, and reversal spotting across all market types.
SMEMA Trend CoreSMEMA Trend Core is a multi-timeframe trend analysis tool designed to provide a clean, adaptive and structured view of the market’s directional bias. It can be used in short term, swing or long term contexts. The internal calculation adjusts automatically based on the selected trading style, while always combining data from six timeframes.
At its core, the indicator uses a SMEMA, which is a Simple Moving Average applied to an EMA. This combination improves smoothness without losing reactivity. The SMEMA is calculated separately on 1H, 4H, 1D, 3D, 1W and 1M timeframes. These six values are then combined using dynamic weights that depend on the trading mode:
Short Term mode gives more influence to 1H and 4H
Swing Trading mode gives more influence to 1D, 3D and 1W
Long Term mode gives more influence to 1W and 1M
However, all six timeframes are always included in the final result. This avoids the tunnel vision of relying on a single resolution and ensures that the indicator captures both local and structural movements.
The result is a synthetic trend line, called Global SMEMA, that adapts to market conditions and offers a realistic view of the ongoing trend. To enhance the reading, the indicator calculates a Trend Score. This score reflects the position of price relative to the Global SMEMA, scaled by a long-term ATR, and adjusted by the slope of the trend line. A hyperbolic tangent function is used to normalize values and reduce distortion from outliers.
The final score is capped between -10 and +10, and used to define the trend state:
Green when the trend is bullish (score > +1.5)
Red when the trend is bearish (score < -1.5)
Brown when the trend is neutral (score between -1.5 and +1.5)
Optional Deviation Bands can be displayed at ±1, ±2 and ±3 ATR distances around the central line. These dynamic zones help identify extended price movements or potential support and resistance areas, depending on the current trend bias.
Main features:
A single, stable trend line based on six timeframes
Automatic rebalancing depending on trading mode
Quantified score integrating distance and slope
No overreaction to short-term noise
Deviation zones for advanced market context
No repainting, no lookahead, 100% real-time
SMEMA Trend Core is not a signal tool. It is a directional framework that helps you stay aligned with the real structure of the market. Use it to confirm setups, filter trades or simply understand where the market stands in its trend cycle.
BBS – Bond Breadth Signal"When bonds scream, breadth collapses, and fear spikes — BBS listens."
🧠 BBS – Bond Breadth Signal
A reversal timing tool built on macro conviction, not price noise.
The Bond Breadth Signal (BBS) was developed to identify major market inflection points by combining four key market stress indicators:
1) 10-Year Yield ROC – Measures sharp moves in the bond market
2) Z-Score of the 10Y – Captures statistical extremes
3) NSHF (Net Highs–Lows) – Signals internal market strength or weakness
4) TLT ROC + VIX – Confirmations of flight to safety and volatility-driven fear
When all conditions align, BBS marks either a For-Sure Buy or For-Sure Sell — these are rare, high-confidence signals designed to cut through noise and focus on true market dislocations.
🔧 Features:
-Background color and signal arrows on confirmation days
-Signals remain visually active for 3 days for added clarity
-Fully adjustable thresholds and alert toggles
-Plot panel for yield, TLT, NSHF, VIX, and Z-score visuals
This tool isn’t designed to fire every day. It’s meant to wait for those moments when the market truly bends — not just wiggles.
Best used on major indices (SPY, QQQ, IWM) to assess macro turning points.
3 Bar Reversal3 Bar Reversal
This pattern is described in John Carter's "Mastering the Trade"
The 3 Bar Reversal indicator is a simple but effective price action tool designed to highlight potential short-term reversals in market direction. It monitors consecutive bar behavior and identifies turning points based on a three-bar pattern. This tool can assist traders in spotting trend exhaustion or early signs of a reversal, particularly in scalping or short-term trading strategies.
How It Works
This indicator analyzes the relationship between consecutive bar closes:
It counts how many bars have passed since the price closed higher than the previous close (barssince(close >= close )) — referred to as an "up streak".
It also counts how many bars have passed since the price closed lower than the previous close (barssince(close <= close )) — known as a "down streak".
A reversal condition is met when:
There have been exactly 3 bars in a row moving in one direction (up or down), and
The 4th bar closes in the opposite direction.
When this condition is detected, the script performs two actions:
Plots a triangle on the chart to signal the potential reversal:
A green triangle below the bar for a possible long (buy) opportunity.
A red triangle above the bar for a possible short (sell) opportunity.
Triggers an alert condition so users can set notifications for when a reversal is detected.
Interpretation
Long Signal: The market has printed 3 consecutive lower closes, followed by a higher close — suggesting bullish momentum may be emerging.
Short Signal: The market has printed 3 consecutive higher closes, followed by a lower close — indicating possible bearish momentum.
These patterns are common in market retracements and can act as confirmation signals when used with other indicators such as RSI, MACD, support/resistance, or volume analysis.
Usage Examples
Scalping: Use the reversal signal to quickly enter short-term trades after a short-term exhaustion move.
Swing Trading: Combine this with trend indicators (e.g., moving averages) to time pullbacks within larger trends.
Confirmation Tool: Use this indicator alongside candlestick patterns or support/resistance zones to validate entry or exit points.
Alert Setup: Enable alerts based on the built-in alertcondition to receive instant notifications for potential trade setups.
Limitations
The 3-bar reversal logic does not guarantee a trend change; it signals potential reversals, which may need confirmation.
Best used in conjunction with broader context such as trend direction, market structure, or other technical indicators.
Directional Strength IndexThis indicator is designed to detect the dominant market direction and quantify its strength by aggregating signals across six key timeframes: 1H, 4H, 1D, 3D, 1W, and 1M.
At its core, it uses a SMEMA 'the Simple Moving Average of an EMA' as the main trend reference. This hybrid smoothing method was chosen for its balance: the EMA ensures responsiveness to recent price moves, while the SMA dampens short-term volatility. This makes the SMEMA more stable than a raw EMA and more reactive than a simple SMA, especially in noisy or volatile environments.
For each timeframe, a score between -10 and +10 is calculated. This score reflects:
- the distance of the price from the SMEMA, using ATR as a dynamic threshold
- the number of price deviations above or below the SMEMA
- the slope of the SMEMA, which adjusts the score based on momentum
These six timeframe scores are then combined into a single Global Score, using weighted averages. Three weighting profiles are available depending on your trading horizon:
- Long Term: emphasizes weekly and monthly data
- Swing Trading: gives balanced importance to all timeframes
- Short Term: prioritizes 1H and 4H action
This multi-timeframe aggregation makes the indicator adaptable to different styles while maintaining a consistent logic.
The result is displayed in a table on the chart, showing:
- the trend direction per timeframe (up, down or neutral)
- the strength score per timeframe
- the overall trend direction and strength based on the selected profile
Optional deviation bands based on ATR multiples are also plotted to provide visual context for overextensions relative to the SMEMA.
This indicator is non-repainting and built for objective, trend-based decision making.
Enhanced Stock Ticker with 50MA vs 200MADescription

Technical Details
Calculation Logic:
Uses confirmed bars (barstate.isconfirmed) to calculate indices, ensuring reliability by avoiding real-time bar fluctuations.
Short-term index: (close - lowest(low, lookback_short)) / (highest(high, lookback_short) - lowest(low, lookback_short)) * 100
Long-term index: (close - lowest(low, lookback_long)) / (highest(high, lookback_long) - lowest(low, lookback_long)) * 100
Signals are triggered using ta.crossover() and ta.crossunder() for indices crossing 5 (bullish) and 95 (bearish).
Signal Plotting:
Main chart signals use force_overlay=true with location.abovebar/belowbar for precise alignment with price bars.
Lower pane signals use location.top/bottom for visibility within the indicator pane.
Plotting is controlled by boolean conditions (e.g., bullishLong and plot_on_chart) to ensure compliance with Pine Script's global scope requirements.
Performance Considerations: Optimized for efficiency by calculating indices only on confirmed bars and using lightweight plotting functions.

Volume Flow OscillatorVolume Flow Oscillator
Overview
The Volume Flow Oscillator is an advanced technical analysis tool that measures buying and selling pressure by combining price direction with volume. Unlike traditional volume indicators, this oscillator reveals the force behind price movements, helping traders identify strong trends, potential reversals, and divergences between price and volume.
Reading the Indicator
The oscillator displays seven colored bands that fluctuate around a zero line:
Three bands above zero (yellow) indicate increasing levels of buying pressure
Three bands below zero (red) indicate increasing levels of selling pressure
The central band represents the baseline volume flow
Color intensity changes based on whether values are positive or negative
Trading Signals
The Volume Flow Oscillator provides several valuable trading signals:
Zero-line crossovers: When multiple bands cross from negative to positive, potential bullish shift; opposite for bearish
Divergences: When price makes new highs/lows but oscillator bands fail to confirm, signals potential reversal
Volume climax: Extreme readings where outer bands stretch far from zero often precede reversals
Trend confirmation: Strong expansion of bands in direction of price movement confirms genuine momentum
Support/resistance: During trends, bands may remain largely on one side of zero, showing continued directional pressure
Customization
Adjust these key parameters to optimize the oscillator for your trading style:
Lookback Length: Controls overall sensitivity (shorter = more responsive, longer = smoother)
Multipliers: Adjust sensitivity spread between bands for different market conditions
ALMA Settings: Fine-tune how the indicator weights recent versus historical data
VWMA Toggle: Enable for additional smoothing in volatile markets
Best Practices
For optimal results, use this oscillator in conjunction with price action and other confirmation indicators. The multi-band approach helps distinguish between minor fluctuations and significant volume events that might signal important market turns.

⯁ KEY FEATURES & HOW TO USE
Savitzky-Golay Filtered Line (Basis):
Smooths out price noise using the Savitzky-Golay method, offering a more refined trend path than traditional moving averages. This centerline acts as the trend anchor and visually changes color depending on its slope to reflect the active trend direction.
Dynamic Trend Bands (Upper/Lower):
Constructed from the filtered line with a dynamic offset based on recent price volatility (ATR). These bands shift based on price pressure and are locked once price closes beyond them.
Helpful for identifying breakout moments or exhaustion areas where reversals are likely.
Trend Direction Detection:
A directional signal is confirmed when price breaks and closes above the upper band (uptrend) or below the lower band (downtrend).
Provides a clear and systematic way to identify when a trend begins.
Trend Duration Counter (Visual Decay Line):
A fading overlay line shows how long a trend has been active since the last reversal. The longer the trend persists, the more transparent this extension becomes.
This visual fading effect helps traders anticipate potential trend exhaustion and prepare for reversals or take-profit zones.
Reversal Signals (Diamond Markers):
Diamond shapes are plotted at each market shift, allowing users to visually pinpoint when the trend has flipped.
These markers act as decision zones for entry, exit, or stop-loss adjustments based on directional flow changes.
Color-Based Bar and Candle Painting:
Candles are painted green in uptrends and orange in downtrends, providing an intuitive glance at trend state without needing to interpret numbers.
Helps users stay aligned with the trend visually and avoid counter-trend entries.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Savitzky Flow Bands indicator offers a modernized, visually rich way to track trend shifts using a scientific smoothing method. With dynamic trend envelopes, color-coded cues, and visual markers, it equips traders with a structured framework to follow the market's flow and make data-driven decisions. Ideal for swing traders, momentum strategists, or any trader looking to trade in sync with the prevailing trend.
Equal High/Low (EQH/EQL) [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script detects and visualizes Equal High (EQH) and Equal Low (EQL) zones—key liquidity areas where price has previously stalled or reversed. These levels often attract institutional interest due to the liquidity buildup around them. The indicator is built to highlight such zones using dynamic thresholding, overbought/oversold RSI filtering, and adaptive mitigation logic to manage zone relevance over time.

Equal Highs/Lows are price points where the market has repeatedly failed to break past a certain high or low, hinting at areas where stop orders and pending interest may be concentrated. These areas are often prime targets for liquidity grabs or reversals. By combining this with RSI filtering, the script avoids false signals during neutral conditions and instead focuses on zones where market pressure is more directional.
FEATURES
Detection Logic: The script identifies EQH and EQL zones by comparing the similarity between recent highs or lows with a dynamic volatility threshold. The `tolerance` input allows users to control how strict this comparison is.
RSI Filtering: If enabled, it only creates zones when RSI is significantly overbought or oversold (based on the `state_thresh` input). This helps ensure zones form only in meaningful market conditions.
Zone Display: Bullish (EQL) zones are shown in grey, while bearish (EQH) zones are in blue. Two horizontal lines mark the zone using wick and body extremes, and a filled area visualizes the zone between them.
Zone Management: Zones automatically extend with price until they’re invalidated. You can choose whether a zone is removed based on wick or body sweeps and whether it requires one or two candle confirmations. Zones also expire after a customizable number of bars.
Alerts: Four alert conditions are built in—when a new EQH/EQL is formed and when one is mitigated—making it easy to integrate into alert-based workflows.
USAGE
Equal highs/lows can be used as liquidity markers, either as entry points or as take-profit targets.
This tool is ideal for liquidity-based strategies and helps traders map out possible reversal or sweep zones that often precede aggressive moves.
Trend Classifier [ChartPrime]Trend Classifier
This is a multi-level trend classification tool that detects bullish, bearish, and ranging conditions using an adaptive smoothing method. It highlights trend strength through color-coded candles and layered bands, making it easy to interpret market momentum visually.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Classifies trend strength using 3 bullish and 3 bearish levels relative to an adaptive trend line.
Neutral (range) zones are marked when price stays between key bands, often signaling low volatility or consolidation.
Automatically filters band visibility based on current trend direction:
In uptrends, only levels below the price are displayed.
In downtrends, only levels above the price are shown.
Color-coded candles:
Aqua candles for bullish conditions.
Red candles for bearish conditions.
Orange candles during neutral or ranging conditions.
Includes a trend direction change marker (diamond), plotted when a shift in trend is detected.
Plots a central smoothed trend line to anchor the trend bands dynamically.
Displays a trend strength dashboard in the top-right corner with real-time bull and bear scores (0 to 3).
Labels with arrows (▲/▼) show current trend direction and strength on the chart.
⯁ HOW TO USE
Use bull and bear levels (1–3) to assess the momentum of the current trend.
When bull = 0 and bear = 0 , market is considered ranging or consolidating – consider fading or waiting for breakout confirmation.
Trend bands can be used as dynamic support/resistance during trending phases.
Monitor the trend change diamonds to spot potential early reversals.
Combine with volume or oscillator tools for confirmation of strength shifts.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Trend Classifier helps traders stay aligned with the dominant trend while visually breaking down market momentum into levels. Its clean color-coded design and strength dashboard make it ideal for both trend following and range trading strategies.
