Consecutive CandlesSummary
This indicator helps visualize short-term momentum by automatically drawing boxes around sequences of consecutive same-colored candles (bullish or bearish). It's designed to quickly highlight periods of sustained buying or selling pressure directly on your chart.
How it Works
Consecutive Candle Detection: The script monitors the chart bar by bar, tracking consecutive candles where close > open (bullish) or close < open (bearish).
Box Drawing: When a sequence of same-colored candles reaches a user-defined minimum length (default is 3) and this sequence is then broken by an opposite-colored candle or a doji, a box is drawn.
Box Boundaries:
The top of the box is set to the highest high price reached during the sequence.
The bottom of the box is set to the lowest low price reached during the sequence.
The left edge of the box aligns with the start time of the first candle in the sequence.
The right edge of the box aligns with the end time of the last candle in the sequence.
Stability: Uses xloc = xloc.bar_time to ensure boxes remain accurately anchored to the price bars when zooming or panning the chart.
Real-time Extension: For active sequences meeting the minimum length on the latest developing bar, the box is optionally extended to the right.
Features
Automatically identifies and boxes sequences of 3 or more (customizable) consecutive bullish candles.
Automatically identifies and boxes sequences of 3 or more (customizable) consecutive bearish candles.
Extends box in real-time for active qualifying sequences.
Customizable minimum candle count (>= 2).
Customizable colors for bullish/bearish boxes and borders.
Settings
You can customize the indicator via the Settings menu (gear icon):
Minimum Consecutive Candles: Define how many candles in a row are needed to draw a box (Default: 3).
Bullish Box Color: Set the fill color for boxes around bullish sequences.
Bearish Box Color: Set the fill color for boxes around bearish sequences.
Box Border Color: Set the color for the border of all boxes.
Potential Use Cases
Momentum Identification: Quickly spot periods of strong, uninterrupted buying or selling.
Exhaustion/Reversal Signals: Very long sequences might indicate potential exhaustion, setting up reversal opportunities.
Consolidation Breakouts: A box forming after a period of tight consolidation can highlight the range just before a potential breakout.
Confirmation: Use the boxes as confirmation for entries or exits based on momentum shifts.
Disclaimer: This indicator provides visual aids based on price action. It should not be used as a standalone trading system. Always use indicators in conjunction with your own analysis and risk management rules.

Understanding Market Dynamics Through Market Push Meter
At its core, this indicator provides a unique lens to visualize market pressure through volume analysis:
1. Volume Imbalance: By separating and comparing buying volume (up candles) from selling volume (down candles), the indicator provides insights into which side is exerting more pressure in the market.
2. Normalized Pressure: The indicator normalizes volume pressure as a percentage of total volume, making it more comparable across different market conditions and instruments.
3. Dynamic Boundaries: The marker lines create a visual representation of the "high water marks" of pressure in both directions, helping to identify when markets are making new pressure extremes.
4. Exhaustion Signals: The peak detection system highlights moments where pressure has reached a local maximum or minimum, often precursors to reversals or consolidations.
Remember:
- Combine signals from volume pressure, marker lines, and peak formations
- Use appropriate timeframe settings for your trading style
- Customize the indicator to match your visual preferences and market
- Consider overall market conditions and correlate with price action
This indicator works best when:
- Used as part of a comprehensive trading system
- Combined with proper risk management
- Applied with an understanding of current market conditions
- Signals are confirmed by price action and other indicators

Auto TrendLines [TradingFinder] Support Resistance Signal Alerts🔵 Introduction
The trendline is one of the most essential tools in technical analysis, widely used in financial markets such as Forex, cryptocurrency, and stocks. A trendline is a straight line that connects swing highs or swing lows and visually indicates the market’s trend direction.
Traders use trendlines to identify price structure, the strength of buyers and sellers, dynamic support and resistance zones, and optimal entry and exit points.
In technical analysis, trendlines are typically classified into three categories: uptrend lines (drawn by connecting higher lows), downtrend lines (formed by connecting lower highs), and sideways trends (moving horizontally). A valid trendline usually requires at least three confirmed touchpoints to be considered reliable for trading decisions.
Trendlines can serve as the foundation for a variety of trading strategies, such as the trendline bounce strategy, valid breakout setups, and confluence-based analysis with other tools like candlestick patterns, divergences, moving averages, and Fibonacci levels.
Additionally, trendlines are categorized into internal and external, and further into major and minor levels, each serving unique roles in market structure analysis.
🔵 How to Use
Trendlines are a key component in technical analysis, used to identify market direction, define dynamic support and resistance zones, highlight strategic entry and exit points, and manage risk. For a trendline to be reliable, it must be drawn based on structural principles—not by simply connecting two arbitrary points.
🟣 Selecting Pivot Types Based on Trend Direction
The first step is to determine the market trend: uptrend, downtrend, or sideways.
Then, choose pivot points that match the trend type :
In an uptrend, trendlines are drawn by connecting low pivots, especially higher lows.
In a downtrend, trendlines are formed by connecting high pivots, specifically lower highs.
It is crucial to connect pivots of the same type and structure to ensure the trendline is valid and analytically sound.
🟣 Pivot Classification
This indicator automatically classifies pivot points into two categories :
Major Pivots :
MLL : Major Lower Low
MHL : Major Higher Low
MHH : Major Higher High
MLH : Major Lower High
These define the primary structure of the market and are typically used in broader structural analysis.
Minor Pivots :
mLL: minor Lower Low
mHL: minor Higher Low
mHH: minor Higher High
mLH: minor Lower High
These are used for drawing more precise trendlines within corrective waves or internal price movements.
Example : In a downtrend, drawing a trendline from an MHH to an mHH creates structural inconsistency and introduces noise. Instead, connect points like MHL to MHL or mLH to mLH for a valid trendline.
🟣 Drawing High-Precision Trendlines
To ensure a reliable trendline :
Use pivots of the same classification (Major with Major or Minor with Minor).
Ensure at least three valid contact points (three touches = structural confirmation).
Draw through candles with the least deviation (choose wicks or bodies based on confluence).
Preferably draw from right to left for better alignment with current market behavior.
Use parallel lines to turn a single trendline into a trendline zone, if needed.
🟣 Using Trendlines for Trade Entries
Bounce Entry: When price approaches the trendline and shows signs of reversal (e.g., a reversal candle, divergence, or support/resistance), enter in the direction of the trend with a logical stop-loss.
Breakout Entry: When price breaks through the trendline with strong momentum and a confirmation (such as a retest or break of structure), consider trading in the direction of the breakout.
🟣 Trendline-Based Risk Management
For bounce entries, the stop-loss is placed below the trendline or the last pivot low (in an uptrend).
For breakout entries, the stop-loss is set behind the breakout candle or the last structural level.
A broken trendline can also act as an exit signal from a trade.
🟣 Combining Trendlines with Other Tools (Confluence)
Trendlines gain much more strength when used alongside other analytical tools :
Horizontal support and resistance levels
Moving averages (such as EMA 50 or EMA 200)
Fibonacci retracement zones
Candlestick patterns (e.g., Engulfing, Pin Bar)
RSI or MACD divergences
Market structure breaks (BoS / ChoCH)
🔵 Settings
Pivot Period : This defines how sensitive the pivot detection is. A higher number means the algorithm will identify more significant pivot points, resulting in longer-term trendlines.
Alerts
Alert :
Enable or disable the entire alert system
Set a custom alert name
Choose how often alerts trigger (every time, once per bar, or on bar close)
Select the time zone for alert timestamps (e.g., UTC)
Each trendline type supports two alert types :
Break Alert : Triggered when price breaks the trendline
React Alert : Triggered when price reacts or bounces off the trendline
These alerts can be independently enabled or disabled for all trendline categories (Major/Minor, Internal/External, Up/Down).
Display :
For each of the eight trendline types, you can control :
Whether to show or hide the line

🔵 Conclusion
A trendline is more than just a line on the chart—it is a structural, strategic, and flexible tool in technical analysis that can serve as the foundation for understanding price behavior and making trading decisions. Whether in trending markets or during corrections, trendlines help traders identify market direction, key zones, and high-potential entry and exit points with precision.
The accuracy and effectiveness of a trendline depend on using structurally valid pivot points and adhering to proper market logic, rather than relying on guesswork or personal bias.
This indicator is built to solve that exact problem. It automatically detects and draws multiple types of trendlines based on actual price structure, separating them into Major/Minor and Internal/External categories, and respecting professional analytical principles such as pivot type, trend direction, and structural location.

Pivot S/R with Volatility Filter## *📌 Indicator Purpose*
This indicator identifies *key support/resistance levels* using pivot points while also:
✅ Detecting *high-volume liquidity traps* (stop hunts)
✅ Filtering insignificant pivots via *ATR (Average True Range) volatility*
✅ Tracking *test counts and breakouts* to measure level strength
---
## *⚙ SETTINGS – Detailed Breakdown*
### *1️⃣ ◆ General Settings*
#### *🔹 Pivot Length*
- *Purpose:* Determines how many bars to analyze when identifying pivots.
- *Usage:*
- *Low values (5-20):* More pivots, better for scalping.
- *High values (50-200):* Fewer but stronger levels for swing trading.
- *Example:*
- Pivot Length = 50 → Only the most significant highs/lows over 50 bars are marked.
#### *🔹 Test Threshold (Max Test Count)*
- *Purpose:* Sets how many times a level can be tested before being invalidated.
- *Example:*
- Test Threshold = 3 → After 3 tests, the level is ignored (likely to break).
#### *🔹 Zone Range*
- *Purpose:* Creates a price buffer around pivots (±0.001 by default).
- *Why?* Markets often respect "zones" rather than exact prices.
---
### *2️⃣ ◆ Volatility Filter (ATR)*
#### *🔹 ATR Period*
- *Purpose:* Smoothing period for Average True Range calculation.
- *Default:* 14 (standard for volatility measurement).
#### *🔹 ATR Multiplier (Min Move)*
- *Purpose:* Requires pivots to show *meaningful price movement*.
- *Formula:* Min Move = ATR × Multiplier
- *Example:*
- ATR = 10 pips, Multiplier = 1.5 → Only pivots with *15+ pip swings* are valid.
#### *🔹 Show ATR Filter Info*
- Displays current ATR and minimum move requirements on the chart.
---
### *3️⃣ ◆ Volume Analysis*
#### *🔹 Volume Change Threshold (%)*
- *Purpose:* Filters for *unusual volume spikes* (institutional activity).
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 1.2 → Requires *120% of average volume* to confirm signals.
#### *🔹 Volume MA Period*
- *Purpose:* Lookback period for "normal" volume calculation.
---
### *4️⃣ ◆ Wick Analysis*
#### *🔹 Wick Length Threshold (Ratio)*
- *Purpose:* Ensures rejection candles have *long wicks* (strong reversals).
- *Formula:* Wick Ratio = (Upper Wick + Lower Wick) / Candle Range
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 0.6 → 60% of the candle must be wicks.
#### *🔹 Min Wick Size (ATR %)*
- *Purpose:* Filters out small wicks in volatile markets.
- *Example:*
- ATR = 20 pips, MinWickSize = 1% → Wicks under *0.2 pips* are ignored.
---
### *5️⃣ ◆ Display Settings*
- *Show Zones:* Toggles support/resistance shaded areas.
- *Show Traps:* Highlights liquidity traps (▲/▼ symbols).
- *Show Tests:* Displays how many times levels were tested.
- *Zone Transparency:* Adjusts opacity of zones.
---
## *🎯 Practical Use Cases*
### *1️⃣ Liquidity Trap Detection*
- *Scenario:* Price spikes *above resistance* then reverses sharply.
- *Requirements:*
- Long wick (Wick Ratio > 0.6)
- High volume (Volume > Threshold)
- *Outcome:* *Short Trap* signal (▼) appears.
### *2️⃣ Strong Support Level*
- *Scenario:* Price bounces *3 times* from the same level.
- *Indicator Action:*
- Labels the level with test count (3/5 = 3 tests out of max 5).
- Turns *red* if broken (Break Count > 0).

## *📊 Parameter Encyclopedia (Expanded)*
### *1️⃣ Pivot Engine Settings*
#### *Pivot Length (50)*
- *What It Does:*
Determines how many bars to analyze when searching for swing highs/lows.
- *Professional Adjustment Guide:*
| Trading Style | Recommended Value | Why? |
|--------------|------------------|------|
| Scalping | 10-20 | Captures short-term levels |
| Day Trading | 30-50 | Balanced approach |
| Swing Trading| 50-200 | Focuses on major levels |

1. *Wick Ratio (0.6):*
- Ensures majority of candle shows rejection
- Formula: (UpperWick + LowerWick) / Total Range > 0.6
2. *Min Wick Size (1% ATR):*
- Prevents false signals in flat markets
- Example: ATR=20 pips → Min wick=0.2 pips
- *Trap Identification Flowchart:*
Price Enters Zone →
Spikes Beyond Level →
Shows Long Wick →
Volume > Threshold →
TRAP CONFIRMED

## *💡 Master-Level Usage Techniques*
### *Institutional Order Flow Analysis*
1. *Step 1:* Identify pivot levels with ≥3 tests
2. *Step 2:* Watch for volume contraction near levels
3. *Step 3:* Enter when trap signal appears with:
- Wick > 2×ATR
- Volume > 1.5× average
### *Multi-Timeframe Confirmation*
1. *Higher TF:* Find weekly/monthly pivots
2. *Lower TF:* Use this indicator for precise entries
3. *Example:*
- Weekly pivot at $180
- 4H shows liquidity trap → High-probability reversal
---
## *⚠ Critical Mistakes to Avoid*
1. *Using Default Settings Everywhere*
- Crude oil needs higher ATR multiplier than bonds
2. *Ignoring Trap Context*
- Traps work best at:
- All-time highs/lows
- Major psychological numbers (00/50 levels)
3. *Overlooking Cumulative Volume*
- Check if volume is building over multiple tests

Gold Scalping BOS & CHoCHThis strategy is designed for scalping gold (XAU/USD) on the 3-minute timeframe, utilizing Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) to identify high-probability trade setups. Unlike traditional SMA crossover strategies, this method focuses purely on price action and market structure shifts, allowing for early entries and better risk management.
Core Concepts:
Break of Structure (BOS) – Confirms a continuation of the trend when price breaks the last swing high (bullish) or last swing low (bearish).
Change of Character (CHoCH) – Detects possible trend reversals by identifying a shift in market momentum.
Dynamic Support & Resistance – Uses the last 10-bar highs and lows to determine adaptive stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels.
Risk-to-Reward Ratio (1:2 RR) – Ensures trades are executed with a favorable risk/reward ratio.
Entry Conditions:
Buy Entry:
BOS (Bullish) confirmed (price breaks the previous swing high).
CHoCH (Bullish) confirms trend shift.
Price crosses back above the last swing low (confirmation of support).
Sell Entry:
BOS (Bearish) confirmed (price breaks the previous swing low).
CHoCH (Bearish) confirms trend shift.
Price crosses back below the last swing high (confirmation of resistance).
Exit Conditions:
Stop Loss (SL): Set at the most recent dynamic support (for buys) or resistance (for sells).
Take Profit (TP): 2x the risk (1:2 risk-reward ratio).
Advantages of This Strategy:
✅ No lagging indicators – Uses price action for real-time entries.
✅ High probability setups – Focuses only on strong structural breaks.
✅ Adaptive SL/TP – Uses real market structure instead of fixed values.
✅ Optimized for Scalping – Best suited for quick in-and-out trades.
Best Time to Trade:
🔹 London & New York Sessions (High volatility for gold).
ATR Impact CandlesATR Impact Candles: Simplify Your Trading with Pure Price Action
You don’t need dozens of cluttered indicators to catch what really matters. With ATR Impact Candles, you get a powerful, single-tool solution that cuts through the noise by focusing on what truly drives the market: price action and volatility. This indicator highlights only those candlesticks that pack a punch—showing you when the market’s range is exceptionally strong relative to its recent behavior. Whether you’re a scalper or a swing trader, ATR Impact Candles empowers you to time your entries and exits with confidence, letting you trade based on real market momentum.
⸻
Indicator Overview
The indicator is designed for TradingView and is implemented in Pine Script (version 5). Its primary purpose is to highlight specific candles that meet a defined volatility condition based on the Average True Range (ATR). Instead of modifying every candle’s appearance, the indicator only changes the color of those “signal” candles that exceed a user-defined multiple of the ATR. The rest of the candles remain in their traditional black and white appearance—preserving the classic candlestick chart look.
⸻
Key Features
1. ATR-Based Signal Identification:
• ATR Calculation:
The indicator calculates the ATR using a configurable lookback period (default is 14 periods). The ATR is a common volatility measure that reflects the average range of price movement.
• Threshold Condition:
A candle is flagged as a signal if its range (high minus low) meets or exceeds a specified multiple (the “ATR Factor”) of the ATR. By default, this factor is set to 2, meaning any candle whose range is at least twice the ATR is considered significant.
2. Dynamic Candle Coloring:
• Signal Candles:
• When a candle meets the ATR threshold condition:
• Up Candles: are colored green.
• Down Candles: are colored red.
• Non-Signal Candles:
• Candles that do not meet the threshold condition retain their classic appearance:
• Up candles are white.
• Down candles are black.
3. User Configurability:
• ATR Period:
Traders can adjust the ATR period to tailor the volatility measure to different markets or timeframes.
• ATR Factor:
The multiple of the ATR that defines a signal candle is also configurable, giving flexibility to experiment with different thresholds for what constitutes “significant” price movement.
• Overlay Display:
The indicator runs in overlay mode on the chart, meaning it directly affects the appearance of the candlestick bars without interfering with other chart elements.
4. Additional Visual Aid:
• Threshold Line Plot:
The script optionally plots a line representing the ATR multiplied by the chosen factor. This line serves as a visual benchmark on the chart, allowing traders to see at what level the ATR threshold lies relative to the price action.
⸻
How It Works
1. ATR Calculation:
The indicator first calculates the Average True Range (ATR) for the defined period. This value is updated for each new candle.
2. Range Comparison:
For each candle, the indicator calculates the range (high - low) and compares it to the threshold, which is the ATR multiplied by the user-defined factor.
3. Conditional Coloring:
• If the Candle’s Range ≥ (ATR * Factor):
• The candle is marked as a “signal candle.”
• Its color is set to green if it is an up candle (close is greater than or equal to open) or red if it is a down candle.
• Otherwise:
• The candle retains its classic look, with up candles in white and down candles in black.
4. Chart Display:
By applying these rules to every candle, the indicator visually emphasizes those moments when the market shows unusually large price movements relative to its recent average volatility. This helps traders quickly spot potential breakouts or reversals.
⸻
Practical Applications
• Volatility Breakouts:
Identify candles that may signal the start of a breakout or strong reversal.
• Risk Management:
Adjust stop-loss levels or position sizes when unusually volatile candles are detected.
• Signal Confirmation:
Combine with other technical indicators or chart patterns to reinforce entry or exit decisions.
⸻
ATR Impact Candles is your essential, no-nonsense tool for filtering out market noise and focusing solely on significant price action. Simplify your trading decisions and harness the power of volatility with one clear, effective indicator.

🔵 For Swing Trading & LEAPS (Weekly Chart Setup - Default Settings)
• Slower MAs provide a broader view of trend structure.
• Helps capture multi-week trend shifts and confirm entry points for longer-term trades.
• Weekly ATR bands highlight when stocks are entering overextended conditions.
💡 Example:
Let’s say you’re looking at TSLA on a Weekly Chart using the default settings. You notice that price crosses above the continuation MA (SSL2) while remaining above the baseline (trend power MA). The bar turns green, and price breaks above ATR resistance, signaling a strong bullish continuation. This could be a great opportunity to enter a long-term swing trade or LEAPS options position.
On the flip side, if price reverses below the Exit MA (SSL3) and turns red while breaking the lower ATR band, it might signal a good time to exit longs or enter a short trade.

Smart ChannelThe "Smart Channel" indicator is designed to dynamically identify and plot price channels on a chart. It uses a statistical approach based on Pearson's correlation coefficient to determine the best-fit channel for both short-term and long-term trends. This allows traders to visualize potential support and resistance levels, identify trend direction, and potentially anticipate breakouts or reversals.
How it Works:
Data Input: The indicator takes a source input (typically the closing price) as the basis for its calculations.
Period Selection: It defines two sets of lookback periods: one for short-term analysis and one for long-term analysis. The code iterates through these periods, calculating a linear regression and standard deviation for each.
Pearson's Correlation: For each period, the indicator calculates Pearson's R, which measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between price and time. A higher absolute value of Pearson's R indicates a stronger trend.
Best Fit Channel: The indicator identifies the period with the highest Pearson's R for both short-term and long-term and uses the corresponding linear regression parameters (slope and intercept) to define the midline of the channel.
Standard Deviation: The standard deviation of the price data around the regression line is calculated. This is used to define the upper and lower boundaries of the channel. The channel width is controlled by a "Deviation Multiplier" input.
Channel Plotting: The indicator plots the midline, upper boundary, and lower boundary of the channel on the chart. Separate channels are plotted for the short-term and long-term best-fit periods, using different colors for easy visual distinction.
Dynamic Updates: The channel is dynamically updated as new price data becomes available, adjusting to the evolving market trend.
Key Inputs and Settings:
Source: The price data used for calculations (e.g., close, open, high, low, etc.).
Use Long-Term Channel: A boolean input to enable/disable the calculation and plotting of the long-term channel.
Deviation Multiplier: Controls the width of the channel (how many standard deviations away from the midline the boundaries are).
Channel/Midline Colors and Transparency: Customizable colors and transparency levels for the channel lines and fill.
Line Styles: Options for solid, dotted, or dashed lines for the channel boundaries and midline.
Extend Style: How the channel lines should extend (right, both, none, left).
Interpretation and Usage:
Trend Identification: The direction of the midline indicates the prevailing trend. An upward-sloping midline suggests an uptrend, while a downward-sloping midline suggests a downtrend.
Support and Resistance: The upper and lower channel boundaries can act as potential support and resistance levels.
Breakouts: A price move outside of the channel boundaries may signal a potential breakout or reversal.
Overbought/Oversold: Prices touching or exceeding the upper boundary might suggest an overbought condition, while prices touching or exceeding the lower boundary might suggest an oversold condition.
Short-Term vs. Long-Term: Comparing the short-term and long-term channels can provide insights into the overall market context. For example, a short-term uptrend within a long-term downtrend might suggest a potential buying opportunity before the larger trend resumes.
