ICT KillZones + Pivot Points [TradingFinder] Support/Resistance 🟣 Introduction
Pivot Points are critical levels on a price chart where trading activity is notably high. These points are derived from the prior day's price data and serve as key reference markers for traders' decision-making processes.
Types of Pivot Points :
Floor
Woodie
Camarilla
Fibonacci
🔵 Floor Pivot Points
Widely utilized in technical analysis, floor pivot points are essential in identifying support and resistance levels. The central pivot point (PP) acts as the primary level, suggesting the trend's likely direction.
The additional resistance levels (R1, R2, R3) and support levels (S1, S2, S3) offer further insight into potential trend reversals or continuations.
🔵 Camarilla Pivot Points
Featuring eight distinct levels, Camarilla pivot points closely correspond with support and resistance, making them highly effective for setting stop-loss orders and profit targets.
🔵 Woodie Pivot Points
Similar to floor pivot points, Woodie pivot points differ by placing greater emphasis on the closing price, often resulting in different pivot levels compared to the floor method.
🔵 Fibonacci Pivot Points
Fibonacci pivot points combine the standard floor pivot points with Fibonacci retracement levels applied to the previous trading period's range. Common retracement levels used are 38.2%, 61.8%, and 100%.
🟣 Sessions
Financial markets are divided into specific time segments, known as sessions, each with unique characteristics and activity levels. These sessions are active at different times throughout the day.
The primary sessions in financial markets include :
Asian Session
European Session
New York Session
The timing of these major sessions in UTC is as follows :
Asian Session: 23:00 to 06:00
European Session: 07:00 to 14:25
New York Session: 14:30 to 22:55
🟣 Kill Zones
Kill zones are periods within a session marked by heightened trading activity. During these times, trading volume surges and price movements become more pronounced.
The timing of the major kill zones in UTC is :
Asian Kill Zone: 23:00 to 03:55
European Kill Zone: 07:00 to 09:55
New York Kill Zone: 14:30 to 16:55
Combining kill zones and pivot points in financial market analysis provides several advantages :
Enhanced Market Sentiment Analysis : Aligns key price levels with high-activity periods for a clearer market sentiment.
Improved Timing for Trade Entries and Exits : Helps better time trades based on when price movements are most likely.
Higher Probability of Successful Trades : Increases the accuracy of predicting market movements and placing profitable trades.
Strategic Stop-Loss and Profit Target Placement : Allows for precise risk management by strategically setting stop-loss and profit targets.
Versatility Across Different Time Frames : Effective in both short and long time frames, suitable for various trading strategies.
Enhanced Trend Identification and Confirmation : Confirms trends using both pivot levels and high-activity periods, ensuring stronger trend validation.
In essence, this integrated approach enhances decision-making, optimizes trading performance, and improves risk management.
🟣 How to Use
🔵 Two Approaches to Trading Pivot Points
There are two main strategies for trading pivot points: utilizing "pivot point breakouts" and "price reversals."
🔵 Pivot Point Breakout
When the price breaks through pivot lines, it signals a shift in market sentiment to the trader. In the case of an upward breakout, where the price crosses these pivot lines, a trader might enter a long position, placing their stop-loss just below the pivot point (P).
Conversely, if the price breaks downward, a short position can be initiated below the pivot point. When using the pivot point breakout strategy, the first and second support levels can serve as profit targets in an upward trend. In a downward trend, these roles are filled by the first and second resistance levels.
🔵 Price Reversal
An alternative method involves waiting for the price to reverse at the support and resistance levels. To implement this strategy, traders should take positions opposite to the prevailing trend as the price rebounds from the pivot point.
While this tool is commonly used in higher time frames, it tends to produce better results in shorter time frames, such as 1-hour, 30-minute, and 15-minute intervals.
Three Strategies for Trading the Kill Zone
There are three principal strategies for trading within the kill zone :
Kill Zone Hunt
Breakout and Pullback to Kill Zone
Trading in the Trend of the Kill Zone
🔵 Kill Zone Hunt
This strategy involves waiting until the kill zone concludes and its high and low lines are established. If the price reaches one of these lines within the same session and is strongly rejected, a trade can be executed.
🔵 Breakout and Pullback to Kill Zone
In this approach, once the kill zone ends and its high and low lines stabilize, a trade can be made if the price breaks one of these lines decisively within the same session and then pulls back to that level.
🔵 Trading in the Trend of the Kill Zone
Kill zones are characterized by high trading volumes and strong trends. Therefore, trades can be placed in the direction of the prevailing trend. For instance, if an upward trend dominates this area, a buy trade can be entered when the price reaches a demand order block.

Break of Structure with trend table by GadatasThis indicator is designed to identify and track swing highs and lows in a given market on chart timeframe. It plots these swing highs and lows as solid lines on the chart. The indicator allows for customization of the line color and width. The selected timeframe trend is visually represented in a table located in the upper right corner of the chart. To enhance consistency, the background color of the timeframe column now elegantly matches the color of the BOS line.
The indicator follows specific rules to determine when a new high or low is created. If the current range is considered bullish (meaning the most recent breakout was to the topside), the indicator will only update the low if a candle's body falls below the current low. However, if the current range is bearish (most recent breakout to the downside), the indicator will only update the high if a candle's body rises above the current high.
When a range is identified as bullish, the indicator will continue updating the high until a swing high is formed, denoting the high of the range. The high will only change if a candle's body surpasses the previous high. The low, on the other hand, will be updated based on the last time a candle's body falls below a previous candle's low. The lowest low after this condition is met will be assigned as the low of the range.
Conversely, when a range is identified as bearish, the indicator will continue updating the low until a swing low is formed, denoting the low of the range. The low will only change if a candle's body falls below the previous low. The high, in this case, will be updated based on the last time a candle's body rises above a previous candle's high. The highest high after this condition is met will be assigned as the high of the range.
Swing highs are determined by having lower highs to the left and right, while swing lows have higher lows to the left and right. These swings are used to determine the final high or low of a bullish or bearish range, respectively.
Tis Indicator differs from other indicators by incorporating this concept to track market structure. The indicator assumes that significant market players sell before making heavy purchases in bullish ranges and buy before selling heavily in bearish ranges. The lines on the chart represent prior highs and lows, as well as the current updated highs and lows based on this theory. By using this indicator, one can gain insights into the structure of price movement and potentially identify bullish or bearish continuations. It can also provide confluence when analyzing multiple timeframes to validate trend-following strategies.
Open-source script.
It now displays both short and long condition changes along with their respective arguments:
1. In the case of a high Bos line break followed by a fall, a very long condition change is made when at least three breaks of Bos Low are observed, transitioning from very short to short then distribution , and after that to long.
2. Short conditions are indicated when a high Bos falls and the condition changes from very long to long and then accumulation, short, and very short with each break.
Additionally, the break counter column now shows positive numbers for long situations, indicating each low Bos break, and negative numbers for short situations, indicating each high Bos break.
The background color of the break counter column now changes to green for positive numbers and red for negative numbers.
Market Structure (Breakers) [LuxAlgo]The Market Structure (Breakers) indicator aims to detect "Breaker Market Structures", an original concept inspired by breaker blocks, and extend on the original concept of market structures by extending existing MS levels, providing supports/resistances as a result.
Various graphical elements are included that highlight the interactions between price and Breaker structures.
🔶 USAGE
Breaker structures occur when a market structure is confirmed (price breaking a previous swing level). The broken swing point is extended by a dotted line which can be used as potential support or resistance.
After a market structure, the price can eventually reverse and break one or multiple breaker structures at the same time, allowing for the detection of new trends in the price.
A market structure closer to the top/bottom of a trend can return Breaker structures breakouts more indicative of potential reversals.
Breakers MS breakouts can also be useful as exits for entries done using market market structures.
The script additionally highlights support/resistance events by highlighting candle borders, with a border using a green color indicating support events while a red color is indicative of a resistance event.
🔹 Breaker Structure Lifespan
The "lifespan" of Breaker structures, that is the amount of time the script will extend/evaluate them is determined by various user settings.
The Maximum Breaks setting determines the maximum amount of breaks a breaker structure can withstand before it is broken.
For example, a maximum amount of breaks of 3 for a bearish breaker structure would require the price to cross under that precise breaker structure level three times. Using higher values of this setting will also highlight more Breakers MS.
The Breaker Maximum Duration setting on the other hand determines how many bars a breaker structure can be evaluated without being broken. If a breaker structure is not broken after this amount of bars then it will stop being evaluated and will be removed.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swings Period: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer term markter structures.
Maximum Breaks: Amount of break required for a breaker block to be considered broken.
Breaker Maximum Duration: Maximum duration of a breaker block (in bars).
Consolidation Spotter Multi Time FrameThis tool is designed for traders looking to spot areas of consolidation on their charts across various time frames. It highlights these consolidation areas using visually appealing boxes, making it easier to identify potential breakout or breakdown zones.
How To Use:
Spotting Consolidation: When you see a box form on your chart, this represents a consolidation zone. Within this zone, the price is moving sideways without a strong upward or downward trend.
Anticipating Breakouts & Breakdowns: Watch the price as it approaches the edges of the box. A movement outside the box can signal a potential breakout (if above the box) or a breakdown (if below the box). This is where momentum shifts can happen.
Momentum Confirmation: Once the price clearly moves out of the box, it indicates a momentum shift. If the price moves upwards out of the box, this can be seen as bullish momentum. Conversely, if the price moves downwards out of the box, this can be seen as bearish momentum.
To use the tool effectively, adjust the settings to suit your trading style, choose your preferred visual theme, and watch as the script highlights key consolidation areas on your chart.
Tip: To visualize fractals, consider using multiple instances of the "Consolidation Spotter" indicator, each set to a different timeframe. This approach allows you to observe consolidations nested within larger consolidations, offering deeper insights into market structures. 😉
PDHL levels with INTRADAY Auto FIBThe present script includes Previous day High/low levels and once the PDH or PDL breaks the present bar's background changes color according to the direction of price breakout.
It's helpful when working on lower timeframe charts with small screen space, so that the user can know that the PDHL has been taken out in one glance at the chart instead of scrolling all around to find out whether the PDH or PDL are broken or not.
The high and low of day before yesterday are also plotted for reference.
The intraday fib levels get drawn taking present day's high and low into account, useful to mark support/retest levels.
The color of the intraday AUTO FIB high and low lines also change from gray to respective assigned colors once the present day price crosses PDH or PDL this is helpful while viewing charts on mobile app.
Disclaimer: Only for studying price movement ideas, trading is not advised.
Adaptive Channel BreakoutIntroducing the "Adaptive Channel Breakout" indicator, an advanced charting tool that employs the acb function from the PeacefulIndicators library. This powerful indicator helps traders detect potential breakouts and trends by displaying an adaptive channel on the chart.
Key features of the Adaptive Channel Breakout indicator include:
Customizable input parameters: Adjust the moving average length, volatility length, and multiplier to suit your trading preferences and strategy.
Utilizes the acb function from the PeacefulIndicators library, which calculates the adaptive channel using a simple moving average (SMA) and standard deviation to measure volatility. The function also tracks the trend direction based on price crossovers and crossunders.
Clear visual representation: The adaptive channel is displayed as a linebr plot, with the color indicating the current trend direction (green for uptrends and red for downtrends).
Trend signals: The indicator includes up and down arrow labels that signify potential trend reversals, providing traders with valuable entry and exit points.
Overlay functionality: Designed to be displayed directly on the price chart for easy analysis and correlation with price action.
To use the Adaptive Channel Breakout indicator, simply add the script to your chart and customize the input parameters as needed.
Auto Trend Lines Breakouts and Bounces Signals and AlertsAuto Trend Lines Breakout with Confirmation Bounce Signals and Alerts
This indicator draws trend lines automatically based on the 2 pivot points, which are calculated based on the specified number of bars (length), which is of course customizable. The indicator then shows you when these trend lines get touched (potential bounce) or “almost touched” (Yes! The script can do that as well!) by the current price of the instrument or broken and then confirmed by the “after break come back touch” – classic! Everything is shown on the chart, and for everything - alarms can be set up with just a few clicks!
Now there are 2 modes here (you can hide all signals as well and just use the trend lines):
1) Current/recent trend lines only: will only show 2 current upper/lower trend lines as well as previous 2 for reference.
2) All time (historical) trend lines: will show 2 current upper/lower trend lines as well as the historical lines from the past and these lines are often very respected by the price!
Besides that, you can set the indicator to show you exactly what you want: Just the trend lines touches/bounces, breaks with confirmation touches/bounces or BOTH.
In addition to that, you can set the indicator to only show you these touches/bounces and breaks with additional confirmations, only if confirmed by :
- Moving Average (customizable length): LONG signals based off the trend lines will only be shown if above EMA, SHORT if below.
- Signals where the candle color confirms the direction of the trade, but the candle type is opposite (like a green colored bearish hammer for example) will be avoided (such candles can be very uncertain/deceptive)
- Signals where the signal candle is doji will be avoided (uncertain)
- Signals will only be shown if supported by the trend line slope (for example, with this feature turned on, if there is an upper line trend line, but the line is actually above, touching the top of the candles and the price touches/crosses it or it gets broken – there will be no signal as even though the trend line is an upper line above candles, it’s slope is positive (going up), if the slope would be down, like a classical down/bearish trend line and the price touches/bounces off it or the line gets broken, only then the indicator will show the signal/alert.
- OFFSET: this one is really cool! With this feature you can hunt these conditions when the price comes very near the trend line, but never touches it. With this setting turned on, with a correct offset amount – you will be able to catch these! You will need to play around with the offset amount, depending on the timeframe/instrument, be quick-n-easy!
The indicator also includes Round Number lines on the chart, which are customizable for any instrument. As you know round numbers are appreciated by the price and can be very nicely used with this indicator looking for combos or using trend lines for signals, while round numbers as partial profit price targets or stop-loss areas.
Important economic events are also shown on the chart as red vertical lines (during these events, volatility can suddenly spike, so it’s best to stay away from trading!)
This is a very powerful indicator with plenty of customizations to find the best approaches, can be used for any instrument and on any timeframe! Awesome for scalping and could be used with swing trading as well! Enjoy!
To add the alerts
-Right-click anywhere on the TradingView chart
-Click on Add alert
-Condition: Auto Trend Lines Breakout with Confirmation Bounce Signals and Alerts
-Alert name: DO NOT TOUCH THIS
-Hit “Create”
-Note: If you change ANY Settings within the indicator – you must DELETE the current alert and create a new one per steps above, otherwise it will continue triggering alerts per old Settings!
A few strategies how this indicator can be used (these were actually tested and showed awesome results!):
1) Bounce Scalping: Simply hunting bounces off the trend lines. Often the price will slightly cross the trend line and then immediately bounces from it for nice little price move, which is great for scalping or if you for example take 2/3s off the position and leave the remaining, often with such bounces – the price may reverse from the trend line and go in the opposite direction considerably.
2) Break-Bounce-Confirm: this is the “Breaks with Confirmation Bounce” option of the script which fully automates the classical trend lines break confirmation, where the trend line is broken (which could be a fake out), so you wait for a touch/bounce of that trend line back from the initial break and open the position right there or wait and see if after the touch/bounce back, the price once again goes into the direction of the break.
For stop-loss and take-profit areas, you can use:
1) Pivots (these are marked with red and green crosses on the chart), which are used to draw the actual trend lines.
2) The actual trend lines themselves (if one gets broken + confirmation, you can set your stop-loss if that same line gets broken again in the opposite direction | similar for take-profit, you can take profit or partial profit at next trend line on the chart if the price reaches it.
3) Use the Round Numbers included, for example: use the closest round number as a visual soft stop-loss and the furthest one away as a visual soft take-profit.
You can try combining this indicator with divergence, stochastic, Bollinger bands, pretty much anything!
If you wish to try this out for a week or so – please reach out and I will give you access.
DB CCI Breakout MTFDB CCI Breakout MTF
What does the indicator do?
The indicator will display crypto breakout and fallouts based on 4 timeframe CCI values. By default the current chart timeframe is used and the user may chose 3 other timeframes in the settings. Additionally, the symbol may be configured in the indicator settings. Default is Coinbase:ETHUSD.
The indicator will monitor the CCI levels on 4 timeframes and will alert to any CCI activity over 100 or under -100 which would indicate a breakout or fallout is present.
A green diamond is displayed when a breakout is detected on one or more of the timeframes for the selected symbol.
How should this indicator be used?
The indicator is a secondary alert system for the presence of breakouts or fallout conditions as under those scenarios position exit or entry strategies may be different.
Does the indicator include any alerts?
Not in this version. But I could add some if desired.
Use at your own risk and do your own diligence.
Enjoy!
Fake breakHi Traders,
I've developed an indicator which can detect fake-breaks on the chart.
In the following you'll find the definition of the fake break candles and also you will find how to recognize it on the chart with practical examples.
What is the fake break pattern?
Sometimes support and resistance lines broke with a full body and strong candles that gives us the idea of sharp movements on the chart but suddenly the next candle returns all the path of the previous candle. in this case we can say fake break is happening on the chart.
This indicator detect fake break patterns based on two criteria:
1. It uses AverageTrueRange indicator to measure the strength of the pattern.
2. The returning candle should engulf minimum 75% of the break candle.
This indicator plot 2 terms in the name of "FB-D" and "FB-U" that are abbreviations of the "Fake Break Down" and "Fake Break Up".
You can also set alerts to get notified when fake breakout happens on the chart.
Notice: This pattern is only acceptable in valid support and resistance zones and you can not rely on it everywhere on the chart (specially in the middle of the waves).
Notice: The source code of this indicator is open and you are allowed to use it on your scripts by mentioning the name of author.
Disclaimer: This is not a financial advice or any signal to buy or sell, the goal of developing such an indicator is to use for educational purposes.

WhaleCrew VolumeThis indicator aims to provide a deeper insight into market events by using volume data.
Features
Aggregating volume data across multiple exchanges (only for built-in crypto pairs, e.g. BTC and ETH)
Detection of volume spikes (customizable size)
Alerts for volume spikes (breakouts/mass liquidation events)
Configurable moving average type
Custom moving average multiplier
Usage
The composition of the aggregated volume data can be visualized to show the respective volume of each exchange.
Identify which exchanges (and their traders) fueled price movement. Was their share in the total aggregated volume higher/lower than previously?
Pay attention to exchanges that are notorious for a lot of beginner/retail traders to make more informed decisions.
The volume spike detection is ideal for getting alerted whenever a breakout (in price action and/or volume) or mass liquidation takes place.
(Spikes are detected relative to the set moving average.)
Access to this indicator can be obtained through our website.
NEXT Trend Delta Moving AverageOverview:
Trend Delta Moving Average (TDMA) is a composite moving average, driven by an algorithm that tracks real-time trends in price, volume, and various changes (delta) between the two. TDMA is low lagging but filtered (smoothed) MA type, with a sometimes predictive slope (via price divergence). This indicator allows you to plot one or two TDMA lines, as well as their crossovers, expressed in the form of long/short signals.
NASDAQ 100 Futures ( CME_MINI:NQ1! ) 1-minute
This Nasdaq futures example shows both TDMA lines and their crossover signals.
Tesla ( NASDAQ:TSLA ) 1-minute
If you trade price / MA crossovers or use moving averages as part of a broader trading system, you have the option of displaying a single TDMA line without any crossover signals (arrows) by ticking Plot TDMA1 Only checkbox and unticking Plot TDMA Crossovers . Great for breakout stocks like TSLA.
TDMA vs Other Moving Averages
We spent a good amount of effort developing and differentiating Trend Delta Moving Average (TDMA) from other moving averages. We wanted a responsive MA algo that considered price and action, and that incoporated user-controlled lagless filtering (smoothing). Below is a comparison between TDMA (purple) and several popular MA types, including Exponential (blue), Simple (red), and Hull (teal). All MA lengths set to 50.
Lagless Smoothing
You may use the Trendiness input parameter to control the amount of smoothing applied to individual or both TDMA lines. Lower values (emphasis on more recent trends) produce vertically tighter slopes, with TDMA following price action more closely, while higher values (emphasis on more longer term trends) relax the slope, without introducing horizontal (time) lag.
Input Parameters:
Length TDMA1 - length of the first Trend Delta Moving Average (TDMA)
Length TDMA2 - length of the second TDMA
Trendiness TDMA1 - the amount of trend weighting added to the first TDMA line (lower = more recent trend, higher = longer term trend)
Trendiness TDMA2 - the amount of trend weighting added to the second TDMA line (lower = more recent trend, higher = longer term trend)
Source - data used for calculating the MAs, typically Close, but can be used with other price formats and data sources as well.
Offset - shifting of the TDMA lines forward (+) or backward (-).
Plot TDMA1 Only - when checked, will only plot a single TDMA line (TDMA1)
Plot TDMA Crossovers - when checked, will plot an up arrow (long signal) when TDMA1 crosses over TDMA2, and a down arrow (short signal) when TDMA1 crosses under TDMA2.
Alerts
Here is how to set price crossing TDMA1 (or TDMA2) alerts: open a TradingView chart, attach NEXT Trend Delta Moving Average (TDMA), right-click on chart -> Add Alert. Condition: Symbol (e.g. NQ) >> Crossing >> NEXT Trend Delta Moving Average (TDMA) >> TDMA1 >> Once Per Bar Close.
Nearest Percentile Moving Average BandsWhile coding some filters into another indicator for Long/Short I noticed that ta.nearest.percentile might be the most useful tool in pinescript I've ever encountered.
While percentile_nearest can be used for all kind of things I decided to code moving averages from it and made bands for bottom percentage and top percentage.
The indicator will calculate the top % price of the given bar length.
Example settings:
length: 150
percentile: 99
So when using 99% it will draw a green line when price is moving above the top 1% price of the last 150 candles. It then calculates if the price is below the bottom 1% of the last 150 candles.
Trading use:
Use this indicator to check if the market is leaving normal territory. This signals a breakout move for example the dogecoin pump or the top of the range. I use this indicator to catch bull/bear moves for botting purposes. An other use would be to countertrend trade after the move has ended. With price being in top 1% for a while it is very probable that we see a large correction.
Below example of dogecoin pumps:
Boom Hunter XLBoom Hunter XL is a professional trading tool designed to expose perfect entries and incredible exits. This complete ground up rebuild of Boom Hunter Pro is an absolute essential for any professional trader or anyone serious about trading. Boom Hunter XL includes many upgrades to the Pro version such as volume pressure analysis, improved pressure dots, two new support and resistance lines and volume breakout detection. It also has options to display current volume and average volume it the top right corner.
A new and improved Volume Pressure Analysis exclusive to Boom Hunter XL can be turned on or off in the settings. This provides relative volume information highlighting anomalies and key movements. It also shows volume pressure. Sometimes when crossing a support or resistance line it takes a lot of volume to move price just a little. When price action crosses or bounces off a SR line it requires very little volume to move the price a lot. What this means is traders can visually see price action getting pulled in or pushed away from a SR line. The current bar shows live directional pressure. Volume pressure is used to confirm entries and continuations.
Red wave is the main support resistance line dictating short term trend direction. Enter trades after the oscillator crosses through or even better with pressure dots or volume pressure. If the oscillator is above the red wave it is an up trend and if it is below its a down trend.
The gray wave shows medium term support/resistance and general trend. This line is much harder to cross. Price action can easily bounce within this wave or get rejected.
The strongest SR lines are the top and bottom gray lines. The resistance line will bottom out under pressure and expose a low point. Likewise the support line will roof and expose a high point.
When there is extreme pressure the gray line will drag. This signal suggests that price action will will pullback and retest and push again. Avoid entering trades in these moments as the true bottom/top has not been exposed. Following price action along longer timeframe charts will help find the true low/high.
Tracking traditional patterns makes it easy to find the next breakout and direction.

Bull patterns
Volume breakouts
Drawing support and resistance lines
Example of some of the signals:
EMA MTF PlusI like trading the 1 minute and 3 minutes time-frames. I'm what is commonly called a "scalper". Long term investments yes, I have some, but for trading, I don't have neither the time,
nor the patience to wait hours or days for my trade to be complete.
This doesn't mean I discount the higher time-frames, no, I actually rely heavily on them. I found that EMAs do a decent job as support/resistance, sometimes to a tick level of precision. And this is important for a 1 minute trader.
As such, I made this script that tracks the higher time-frames EMAs and displays the last value as a line.
I do not need the whole EMA, I'm not interested in crossovers or crossunders, these are anyway late signals for me.
What's with the triangles? These are local tops/bottoms , candles that have a have decent size of the wick. These tops and bottoms are by no means "final", they are merely a rejection at certain levels of price. Due to markets complexities (and human erratic behaviors hehe) these levels could be breached at the very next candle. For a more "final" version (nothing is really final but..) I added Schaff Trend Cycle as filter, so a triangle will pop only when a trend is mature enough ( STC with a value near 0 or near 100).
Colored bars. When the body of the candle is big, it shows strength. Strong bars tend to have follow through, especially when breaking key levels. The script looks at the body of the candle and compares it with ATR (Average True Range), if it's at least 0.8 of ATR it changes the bar color to yellow (bull candles) or fuchsia(bear candles).
Range identifier. This code is copied from Lazy Bear (if there are any issues please let me know), it's very useful in conjunction with colored bars.
I look for breakout candles that go outside of the range as a signal for a trade.
There are many ways in which this script can be useful, like trading mean reversions or momentum trades (breakouts) or simply trend following trades.
I hope you guys find it useful, you can play with default values and change them as you like, these are what I found to be working best for me and my trading universe (mostly crypto).
Special thanks for the original work of:

This code indicates the candles that break the ichimoku cloud in both directions!
conversion line, base line and lagging span are disable by default, you can enable it from settings window.
green triangles under the candles with green backgrounds show break out the red clouds.
red triangles at the top of the candles with red backgrounds show break out the red clouds.
you can set alerts to be notified when an Ichimoku Cloud is broken.
Top and BottomThe function of this indicator is to make regions that form top and bottom patterns visible.
Especially beginners, do not know the real formation of a top or bottom. Some taking information only for maximum and minimum.
● The main characteristic of forming a top is to have the current maximum (1) less than the previous maximum (2) and the previous maximum (2) greater than the maximum previous to yours (3).
● The main characteristic of forming a fund is to have the current minimum (1) greater than the previous minimum (2) and the previous minimum (2) less than the minimum prior to yours (3).
These are the main characteristics for forming a top and bottom.
When you know where the top or bottom is, it will help you with the use of Fibonacci and also with breakouts.
Alert: To have the graphic design of the indicator you need to have 3 candles. If the previous maximum is broken, you can remove the drawing. The same goes for the bottom. It can form a new top or bottom.
Simple Bollinger Bands Toolkit™TradeChartist Simple Bollinger Bands Toolkit is a useful set of Bollinger Bands based utilities, which includes 0 mean %B Oscillator , price volatility based BB Width , actual Bollinger Bands and BB Breakout Signals .

™TradeChartist Simple Bollinger Bands Toolkit Features
================================================
Modified %B Oscillator with 0 as its mean
%B Oscillator Over-Bought (typically values > 80/90/100) and Over-Sold zones (typically values < - 80/-90/-100) can be displayed by enabling Show Over-Sold/Over-Bought Zones .
Highs and Lows of the %B Oscillator are displayed to help visualize Divergences.
BB Width as Price Volatility (BB Upper Band - BB Lower Band) can be displayed to visualize BB Squeeze zones.
Actual Bollinger Bands can be plotted by enabling Display Bollinger Bands . To display on main price chart, just move the BB Toolkit to price chart and merge the scales.
Breakout Signals can be displayed by enabling Display Bollinger Bands and Show BB Breakout Signals . This also displays background fill to help visualize the zones since the breakouts of upper/lower bands happened.
The BB Basis/Mean line is colour coded based on the %B Oscillator (%B>0 - Green, %B<0 - Red).
The Toolkit uses Simple Moving Average (SMA) for the basis line.
The default length is 55 and default Standard Deviation is 1. %B Oscillator can be smoothed (default - 5) using EMA to minimize noise. (Use 20 length and 2 standard deviation for classic Bollinger Bands).
Price Bars on the Main Price chart can be coloured by enabling BB Colour Bars .

72s: Adaptive Hull Moving Average+One challenging issue for beginner traders is to differentiate market conditions, whether or not the current market is giving best possibility to stack profits, as earliest, in shortest time possible, or not.
On intraday, we've seen some big actions by big banks are somewhat can be defined --or circling around-- by HMA 200 . I've been thinking on to make the visuals more conform to price dynamics (separating major movement and minor noise) to get clearer signs of when it starts to happen. So it will be easier to see in a glance when the strength starts really taken place, with less cluttered chart.
This Adaptive HMA is using the new Pine Script's feature which now support Dynamic Length arguments for several Pine functions. ( read: www.tradingview.com). It hasn't support the built-in HMA() directly, but thankfully we can use its wma() formula to construct. (Note: I tweaked a bit HMA formula already popular here by using plain int() instead of round() on its wma's length, since I find it precisely match tradingview's built-in HMA).
You can choose which aspect the Adaptive HMA period will adapt to.
In this study I present it with two options: Volume and Volatility . It will "moves" faster or slower depends on which situation the aspect is currently into. ie: When volume is generally low or volatile readings is not there, price won't move very much, so the adapting MA will slow down by dynamically lengthen the lookback period, and vice versa, and so on.
Colour-markings in the Adaptive resembles which situation explained above. In addition, I also combine it with slope calculation of the MA to help measuring trend-strength or sideway/choppy conditions.
This way when we use it as dynamic support/resistance it will be more visually-reliable.
Secondly, and more important, it might help us traders with better probability info of whether or not a trade should even worth to be made . ie: If in the mean time market won't give much movement, any profit would also only as much. In most cases, we might better save our dime for later or place it somewhere else.
HOW TO USE:
Aside from better dynamic support/resistance and clearer breakout confirmation, MA is coloured as follow:
YELLOW:
Market is in consolidation or flat. Be it sideways, choppy, or in relatively small movements. If it shows up in a trending market, it may be an earlier sign that current trend might about to change its direction, or confirming a price broke-out to another side.
LIGHT GREEN or LIGHT RED:
Tells if a trend is forming but still relatively weak (or getting weaker), as it doesn't have volume or volatility to support.
DARKER GREEN ot DARKER RED:
This is where we can expect some good and strong price movement to ride. If it's strong enough, many times it marks a start of new long-lasting major trend.
SETTINGS:
Charger:
Choose which aspect your HMA should plug itself into, thus it will adapt to it.
Minimum Period, Maximum Period:
172 - 233 is just my own setting to outmatch the static HMA 200 for intraday. I find it --in my style of trading-- best in 15m tf in almost any pair, and 15m to 1H for some stocks. It also works nicely with conventional EMA 200, sometimes as if they somewhat work hand-in-hand in defining where the price should go. But you can, ofcourse, experiment with other ranges, broader or narrower. Especially if you already have an established strategy to follow to. As you might do with:
Consolidation area threshold:
This has to do with slope calculation. The bigger the number means your MA needs bigger degree to define the market is out of flat (yellow) area. This can be useful if needed to lighten up the filter or vice-versa.
Background colouring:
Just another colouring to help highlighting the difference in market conditions.
ALERTS:
There are two alerts:
Volume Break: when volume is breaking up above average, and
Volatility Meter: when the market more likely is about to have its moment of the big wiggling brush.
USAGE:
Very very nice BUY entry to catch big up-movement if:
1. Price is above MA. (It is best when price is also not to far distance from the MA, or you can also use distance oscillator to help out too)
2. HMA's color is in darker green. Means it's on the charging plug with your chosen aspect.
3. RSI is above 50. This is to help as additional confirmation.
Clear SELL entry signal is same as above, just the opposite.
-------------------------------------------------------
Note:
Lower timeframe of course means more noise to be filtered. Depends on the instrument, you might need to tweak the settings a bit till it conform nicely and shows lots of good trades in history. Here's another example on GBPUSD 5m timeframe:
For exit/take-profit point, you can use a second faster period static HMA. Or you can also use RSI. Here's an example:
Don't get me wrong, on few occasions I found it's still best using static MA to spot fakeouts, breakouts, etc, especially ones that's been already use widely. If that's the case or price actions seems suspicious, simply put the same value for minimum and maximum period settings, and there you have the original HMA with extra features.
For developer, check in the code if you need to customise your own charger.
-------------------------------------------------------
That's it. Hopefully this Adaptive HMA+ could at least be a good sidekick to your own strategy, as it does mine. ;)
JohnHosana Momentum/Breakout IndicatorThe Johnhosana Momentum/Breakout Indicator is a pure trend-following indicator. It only looks at price data, and doesn't guess where support and resistance areas are. That sounds a bit basic but it's actually a great strength. Since the Johnhosana Momentum/Breakout Indicator follows the trend, it practically guarantees that we're on the right side of important trends.
When prices cross the upper band, open a long position. Sell when they cross the opposite band.
When prices cross the lower band, initiate a short trade. Cover that position once prices cross the other band.
A nice feature of the Johnhosana Momentum/Breakout is that it moves with prices. When there's an uptrend, new highs push the upper band higher. But an uptrend also has higher lows, and that makes the Johnhosana Momentum/Breakout lower band also move up. This way our long exit becomes more favourable the longer the trend continues.
The size of the Johnhosana Momentum/Breakout also tells us something. When the market is in a volatile downtrend, the Johnhosana Momentum/Breakout increases in height. Then when price volatility decreases, the channel becomes smaller as well. (And when the bands become exceptionally narrow, there's even a chance of a volatile breakout.)
The Johnhosana Momentum/Breakout is not always easy to trade, unfortunately. When prices move sideways, the indicator can generate a lot of false signals. And when trends don't last long, there isn't always enough price movement for a profitable exit. In those environments we better use oscillators instead of trend-following indicators.
TrendBand CycleSimple breakout signal with POTENTIAL target price and stop loss / trailing stop.
Cycle begin with green bar signal and will end if price break above target or break below stop loss.
Volume test and pullback signal only appear within cycle period.
Few example :
Supply/Demand Zones - LongTerm (Expo) "It hasn't been easier to display, in real-time, one of the most important and useful technical analysis, namely supply/demand zones. This algorithm analyzes the market structure in real-time and maps out key supply and demand zones for you."
Supply/Demand Zones - LongTerm (Expo) analyzes the long-term market structure in real-time and maps out key supply and demand zones. The user gets an instant understanding of the long-term market structure.
The indicator identifies long-term zones where demand overwhelms supply which is driving the price up, or where supply overwhelms demand which is driving the price down. It makes sense to buy at a demand zone and to sell at a supply zone, but keep in mind that fresh zones are more effective than retested ones. They can be used as entry zones for a continuing trend or as reversal zones for a changing trend.
--> The indicator displays up to 5 zones . The blue zone can be customized. Labels with price levels can be enabled. Flexible source input- and zone settings.
-->The indicator can be used standalone or as a part of your current trading strategy.
