Swing Highs and Lows Detector🔍 Swing Highs and Lows Detector
The Swing Highs and Lows Detector is a powerful tool for traders looking to identify meaningful structural shifts in price action, based on swing point logic and internal trend shifts.
📈 What It Does
This indicator automatically identifies and labels:
HH (Higher High) – Price broke above the previous swing high
LH (Lower High) – Price failed to break the previous high, signaling potential weakness
LL (Lower Low) – Price broke below the previous swing low
HL (Higher Low) – Price maintained a higher support level, indicating strength
The script distinguishes between bullish and bearish internal shifts and tracks the highest/lowest points between those shifts to determine the swing structure.
⚙️ How It Works
You can choose between two shift detection modes:
"Open": Compares closing price to the first open of the opposite streak
"High/Low": Uses the high of bearish or low of bullish candles
Once a shift is confirmed, the indicator scans the bars between shifts to find the most significant swing high or low
When a valid swing is detected, it’s labeled directly on the chart with color-coded markers
🛎️ Built-in Alerts
Set alerts for:
Higher High
Lower High
Lower Low
Higher Low
These alerts help you catch key structural shifts in real time — great for breakout traders, structure-based analysts, and smart money concepts (SMC) strategies.
✅ How to Use
Confirm Trend Strength or Reversals – Use HH/HL to confirm an uptrend, LL/LH to confirm a downtrend
Combine with Liquidity Sweeps or Zones – Ideal for SMC or Wyckoff-style setups
Entry/Exit Triggers – Use swing breaks to time entries or exits near key structural points

IU Bigger than range strategyDESCRIPTION
IU Bigger Than Range Strategy is designed to capture breakout opportunities by identifying candles that are significantly larger than the previous range. It dynamically calculates the high and low of the last N candles and enters trades when the current candle's range exceeds the previous range. The strategy includes multiple stop-loss methods (Previous High/Low, ATR, Swing High/Low) and automatically manages take-profit and stop-loss levels based on user-defined risk-to-reward ratios. This versatile strategy is optimized for higher timeframes and assets like BTC but can be fine-tuned for different instruments and intervals.
USER INPUTS:
Look back Length: Number of candles to calculate the high-low range. Default is 22.
Risk to Reward: Sets the target reward relative to the stop-loss distance. Default is 3.
Stop Loss Method: Choose between:(Default is "Previous High/Low")
- Previous High/Low
- ATR (Average True Range)
- Swing High/Low
ATR Length: Defines the length for ATR calculation (only applicable when ATR is selected as the stop-loss method) (Default is 14).
ATR Factor: Multiplier applied to the ATR to determine stop-loss distance(Default is 2).
Swing High/Low Length: Specifies the length for identifying swing points (only applicable when Swing High/Low is selected as the stop-loss method).(Default is 2)
LONG CONDITION:
The current candle’s range (absolute difference between open and close) is greater than the previous range.
The closing price is higher than the opening price (bullish candle).
SHORT CONDITIONS:
The current candle’s range exceeds the previous range.
The closing price is lower than the opening price (bearish candle).
LONG EXIT:
Stop-loss:
- Previous Low
- ATR-based trailing stop
- Recent Swing Low
Take-profit:
- Defined by the Risk-to-Reward ratio (default 3x the stop-loss distance).
SHORT EXIT:
Stop-loss:
- Previous High
- ATR-based trailing stop
- Recent Swing High
Take-profit:
- Defined by the Risk-to-Reward ratio (default 3x the stop-loss distance).
ALERTS:
Long Entry Triggered
Short Entry Triggered
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
This strategy dynamically adapts to different market conditions by identifying candles that exceed the previous range, ensuring that it only enters trades during strong breakout scenarios.
Multiple stop-loss methods provide flexibility for different trading styles and risk profiles.
The visual representation of stop-loss and take-profit levels with color-coded plots improves trade monitoring and decision-making.
HOW USERS CAN BENEFIT FROM IT:
Ideal for breakout traders looking to capitalize on momentum-driven price moves.
Provides flexibility to customize stop-loss methods and fine-tune risk management parameters.
Helps minimize drawdowns with a strong risk-to-reward framework while maximizing profit potential.
Swing Breakout System (SBS)The Swing Breakout Sequence (SBS) is a trading strategy that focuses on identifying high-probability entry points based on a specific pattern of price swings. This indicator will identify these patterns, then draw lines and labels to show confirmation.
How To Use:
The indicator will show both Bullish and Bearish SBS patterns.
Bullish Pattern is made up of 6 points: Low (0), HH (1), LL (2 | but higher than initial Low), New HH (3), LL (5), LL again (5)
Bearish Patten is made up of 6 points: High (0), LL (1), HH (2 | but lower than initial high), New LL (3), HH (5), HH again (5)
A label with an arrow will appear at the end, showing the completion of a successful sequence
Idea behind the strategy:
The idea behind this strategy, is the accumulation and then manipulation of liquidity throughout the sequence. For example, during SBS sequence, liquidity is accumulated during step (2), then price will push away to make a new high/low (step 3), after making a minor new high/low, price will retrace breaking the key level set up in step (2). This is price manipulating taking liquidity from behind high/low from step (2). After taking liquidity price the idea is price will continue in the original direction.
Step 0 - Setting up initial direction
Step 1 - Setting up initial direction
Step 2 - Key low/high establishing liquidity
Step 3 - Failed New high/low
Step 4 - Taking liquidity from step (2)
Step 5 - Taking liquidity from step 2 and 4
Pattern Detection:
- Uses pivot high/low points to identify swing patterns
- Stores 6 consecutive swing points in arrays
- Identifies two types of patterns:
1. Bullish Pattern: A specific sequence of higher lows and higher highs
2. Bearish Pattern: A specific sequence of lower highs and lower lows
Note: Because the indicator is identifying a perfect sequence of 6 steps, set ups may not appear frequently.
Visualization:
- Draws connecting lines between swing points
- Labels each point numerically (optional)
- Shows breakout arrows (↑ for bullish, ↓ for bearish)
- Generates alerts on valid breakouts
User Input Settings:
Core Parameters
1. Pivot Lookback Period (default: 2)
- Controls how many bars to look back/forward for pivot point detection
- Higher values create fewer but more significant pivot points
2. Minimum Pattern Height % (default: 0.1)
- Minimum required height of the pattern as a percentage of price
- Filters out insignificant patterns
3. Maximum Pattern Width (bars) (default: 50)
- Maximum allowed width of the pattern in bars
- Helps exclude patterns that form over too long a period

UVR Crypto TrendINDICATOR OVERVIEW: UVR CRYPTO TREND
The UVR Crypto Trend indicator is a custom-built tool designed specifically for cryptocurrency markets, utilizing advanced volatility, momentum, and trend-following techniques. It aims to identify trend reversals and provide buy and sell signals by analyzing multiple factors, such as price volatility(UVR), RSI (Relative Strength Index), CMF (Chaikin Money Flow), and EMA (Exponential Moving Average). The indicator is optimized for CRYPTO MARKETS only.
KEY FEATURES AND HOW IT WORKS
Volatility Analysis with UVR
The UVR (Ultimate Volatility Rate) is a proprietary calculation that measures market volatility by comparing significant price extremes and smoothing the data over time.
Purpose: UVR aims to reduce noise in low-volatility environments and highlight significant movements during higher-volatility periods. While it strives to improve filtering in low-volatility conditions, it does not guarantee perfect performance, making it a balanced and adaptable tool for dynamic markets like cryptocurrency.
HOW UVR (ULTIMATE VOLATILITY RATE) IS CALCULATED
UVR is calculated using a method that ensures precise measurement of market volatility by comparing price extremes across consecutive candles:
Volatility Components:
Two values are calculated to represent potential price fluctuations:
The absolute difference between the current candle's high and the previous candle's low:
Volatility Component 1=∣High−Low ∣
The absolute difference between the previous candle's high and the current candle's low:
Volatility Component 2=∣High −Low∣
Volatility Ratio:
The larger of the two components is selected as the Volatility Ratio, ensuring UVR captures the most significant movement:
Volatility Ratio=max(Volatility Component 1,Volatility Component 2)
Smoothing with SMMA:
To stabilize the volatility calculation, the Volatility Ratio is smoothed using a Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA) over a user-defined period (e.g., 14 candles):
UVR=(UVR(Previous)×(Period−1)+Volatility Ratio)/Period
This calculation ensures UVR adapts dynamically to market conditions, focusing on significant price movements while filtering out noise.
RSI FOR MOMENTUM DETECTION
RSI (Relative Strength Index) identifies overbought and oversold conditions.
Trend Confirmation at the 50 Level
RSI values crossing above 50 signal the potential start of an upward trend.
RSI values crossing below 50 indicate the potential start of a downward trend.
Key Reversals at Extreme Levels
RSI detects trend reversals at overbought (>70) and oversold (<30) levels.
For example:
Overbought Trend Reversal: RSI >70 followed by bearish price action signals a potential downtrend.
Oversold Trend Reversal: RSI <30 with bullish confirmation signals a potential uptrend.
Rare Extreme RSI Readings
Extreme levels, such as RSI <12 (oversold) or RSI >88 (overbought), are used to identify rare yet powerful reversals.
---HOW IT DIFFERS FROM OTHER INDICATORS---
Using UVR High and Low Values
The Ultimate Volatility Rate (UVR) focuses on analyzing the high and low price ranges of the market to measure volatility.
Unlike traditional trend indicators that rely primarily on momentum or moving average crossovers, UVR leverages price extremes to better identify trend reversals.
This approach ensures fewer false signals during low-volatility phases and more accurate trend detection during high-volatility conditions.
UVR as the Core Component
The indicator is fundamentally built around UVR as the primary filter, while supporting tools like RSI (momentum detection), CMF (volume confirmation), and EMA (trend validation) complement its functionality.
By integrating these additional components, the indicator provides a multidimensional analysis rather than relying solely on a single approach.
Dynamic Adaptation to Volatility
UVR dynamically adjusts to market conditions, striving to improve filtering in low-volatility phases. While not flawless, this approach minimizes false signals and adapts more effectively to varying levels of market activity.
Trend Clouds for Visual Guidance
UVR-based dynamic clouds visually mark high and low price areas, highlighting potential consolidation or retracement zones.
These clouds serve as guides for setting stop-loss or take-profit levels, offering clear risk management strategies.
BUY AND SELL SIGNAL LOGIC
BUY CONDITIONS
Momentum-Based Buy-Entry
RSI >50, CMF >0, and the close price is above EMA50.
The price difference between open and close exceeds a threshold based on UVR.
Oversold Reversal
RSI <30 and CMF >0 with a strong bullish candle (close > open and UVR-based sensitivity filter).
Breakout Confirmation
The price breaks above a previously identified resistance, with conditions for RSI and CMF supporting the breakout.
Reversal from Oversold RSI Extreme
RSI <12 on the previous candle with a strong rebound on the current candle with UVR confirmation filter.
SELL CONDITIONS
Momentum-Based Sell-Entry
RSI <50, CMF <0, and the close price is below EMA50.
The price difference between open and close exceeds the UVR threshold.
Overbought Reversal
RSI >70 with bearish price action (open > close and UVR-based sensitivity filter).
Breakdown Confirmation
The price breaks below a previously identified support, with RSI and CMF supporting the breakdown.
Reversal from Overbought RSI Extreme
RSI >88 on the previous candle with a bearish confirmation on the current candle with UVR confirmation filter.
BUY AND SELL SIGNALS VISUALIZATION
The UVR Crypto Trend Indicator visually represents buy and sell conditions using dynamic plots, making it easier for traders to interpret and act on the signals. Below is an explanation of the visual representation:
Buy Signals and Visualization
Signal Trigger:
A buy signal is generated when one of the defined Buy Conditions is met (e.g., RSI >50, CMF >0, price above EMA50).
Visual Representation:
A blue upward arrow appears at the candle where the buy condition is triggered.
A blue cloud forms above the price candles, representing the strength of the bullish trend. The cloud dynamically adapts to market volatility, using the UVR calculation to mark support zones or consolidation levels.
Purpose of the Blue Cloud:
It acts as a visual guide for price movements and stay horizontal when the trend is not moving up
Sell Signals and Visualization
Signal Trigger:
A sell signal is generated when one of the defined Sell Conditions is met (e.g., RSI <50, CMF <0, price below EMA50).
Visual Representation:
A red downward arrow appears at the candle where the sell condition is triggered.
A red cloud forms below the price candles, representing the strength of the bearish trend. Like the blue cloud, it uses the UVR calculation to dynamically mark resistance zones or potential retracement levels.
Purpose of the Red Cloud:
It acts as a visual guide for price movements and stay horizontal when the trend is not moving down.
CONCLUSION
The UVR Crypto Trend indicator provides a powerful tool for trend reversal detection by combining volatility analysis, momentum confirmation, and trend-following techniques. Its unique use of the Ultimate Volatility Rate (UVR) as a core element, supported by proven indicators like RSI, CMF, and EMA, ensures reliable and actionable signals tailored for the crypto market's dynamic nature. By leveraging UVR’s high and low price range analysis, it achieves a level of precision that traditional indicators lack, making it a high-performing system for cryptocurrency traders.

4. Dynamic Reset:
• After the session ends, the session high and low values are reset to na to prepare for the next trading day.
5. Customizable Background Colors:
• Each session’s box has a distinct, semi-transparent background color for better visual separation.
How It Works
1. Core Functionality:
• A function, plot_box, takes the session name, start time, end time, and background color as input.
• It calculates whether the current time is within the session.
• During the session:
• It tracks the session’s highest and lowest prices.
• It identifies the bars where the high and low occurred.
• At the session’s end:
• It plots a box on the chart covering the session’s time and price range.
• Labels are created for the session name and its high/low points.
2. Session Timing:
• Timestamps for the USA and UK trading sessions are calculated using the timestamp function with respective time zones.
3. Visual Elements:
• The box.new function draws the session boxes on the chart.
• The label.new function creates session name and high/low labels.
Usage
• Overlay Mode: The indicator is applied directly on the price chart (overlay=true), making it easy to visualize session-specific price behavior.
• Trading Strategy:
• Identify session-specific support and resistance levels.
• Observe price action trends during key trading periods.
• Align trading decisions with session dynamics.
Customization
While the indicator is preset for the USA and UK trading sessions, it can be easily modified:
1. Add/Remove Sessions: Define additional sessions by providing their start and end times.
2. Change Colors: Update the background_color in the plot_box calls to use different colors for sessions.
3. Adjust Time Zones: Replace the current time zones with others relevant to your trading style.
Visualization Example
• USA Session:
• Time: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent orange.
• UK Session:
• Time: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent green.
Why Use This Indicator?
1. Market Awareness: Easily spot price behavior during high-liquidity trading periods.
2. Trend Analysis: Analyze how sessions overlap or affect each other.
3. Session Boundaries: Use session high/low levels as dynamic support and resistance zones.
This indicator is an essential tool for intraday and swing traders who want to align their strategies with key market timings.

Internal and External Structures
Internal Structures: These elements refer to the price formations and patterns that occur within a smaller scope or a specific trading session. The suite can detect intricate details like minor support/resistance levels or short-term trend reversals.
External Structures: These involve larger, more significant market patterns and trends spanning multiple sessions or time frames. This capability helps traders understand overarching market directions.
Customizable Sensitivities
Adjusting sensitivity settings allows users to tailor the indicator's responsiveness to market changes. Higher sensitivity can catch smaller fluctuations, while lower sensitivity might focus on more significant, reliable market moves.
Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH)
BoS: This feature identifies points where the price breaks a significant structure, potentially indicating a new trend or a trend reversal.
CHoCH: Detects subtle shifts in the market's behavior, which could suggest the early stages of a trend change before they become apparent to the broader market.
Order Blocks and Market Phases
Order Blocks: These are essentially price levels or zones where significant trading activities previously occurred, likely pointing to the positions of smart money.
HH/LH/LL/LH Areas: Identifying Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Lower Lows (LL), and Lower Highs (LH) helps in understanding the trend and market structure, aiding in predictive analysis.
Rolling Timeframe Highs/Lows and Volume Comparisons
Tracks highs and lows over specified rolling periods, providing dynamic support and resistance levels.
Compares volume data across different timeframes to assess the strength or weakness of the current price movements.
Auto Fibonacci Levels

Session Data and Volume Intensity
Session Information: Displays current and upcoming trading sessions along with countdown timers, which is crucial for day traders and those trading on session overlaps.
Volume Intensity: Measures and compares the volume within the last 4 hours and 24 hours to gauge market activity and potential breakout/breakdown movements.
Visualizations and Practical Use
Dynamic Visuals: The suite provides dynamic visual aids, such as real-time updating of high/low markers and Fibonacci levels, which adjust as new data comes in. This feature is critical in fast-paced markets.
Strategic Entry/Exit Points: By identifying order blocks and using Fibonacci levels, traders can pinpoint strategic entry and exit points, maximizing potential returns.
Risk Management: Enhanced features like session countdowns and volume intensity help in better risk management by providing traders with more data on market sentiment and potential volatility.
Fib Pivot Points HLThis TradingView indicator allows users to select a specific timeframe (TF) and then analyzes the high, low, and closing prices from the past period within that TF to calculate a central pivot point. The pivot point is determined using the formula (High + Close + Low) / 3, providing a key level around which the market is expected to pivot or change direction.
In addition to the central pivot point, the indicator enhances its utility by incorporating Fibonacci levels. These levels are calculated based on the range from the low to the high of the selected timeframe. For instance, a Fibonacci level like R0.38 would be calculated by adding 38% of the high-low range to the pivot point, giving traders potential resistance levels above the pivot.
Key features of this indicator include:
Timeframe Selection: Users can choose their desired timeframe, such as weekly, daily, etc., for analysis.
Pivot Point Calculation: The indicator calculates the pivot point based on the previous period's high, low, and closing prices within the selected timeframe.
Fibonacci Levels: Adds Fibonacci retracement levels to the pivot point, offering traders additional layers of potential support and resistance based on the natural Fibonacci sequence.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to identify potential turning points in the market and key levels of support and resistance based on historical price action and the Fibonacci sequence, which is widely regarded for its ability to predict market movements.
Example:
Suppose you're analyzing the EUR/USD currency pair using this indicator with a weekly timeframe setting. The previous week's price action showed a high of 1.2100, a low of 1.1900, and the week closed at 1.2000.
Using the formula ( High + Close + Low ) / 3 (High+Close+Low)/3, the pivot point would be calculated as ( 1.2100 + 1.2000 + 1.1900 ) / 3 = 1.2000. Thus, the central pivot point for the current week is at 1.2000.
The range from the low to the high is 1.2100 − 1.1900 = 0.0200 1.2100−1.1900=0.0200.
To calculate a specific Fibonacci level, such as R0.38, you would add 38% of the high-low range to the pivot point: 1.2000 + ( 0.0200 ∗ 0.38 ) = 1.2076 1.2000+(0.0200∗0.38)=1.2076. Thus, the R0.38 Fibonacci resistance level is at 1.2076.
Similarly, you can calculate other Fibonacci levels such as S0.38 (Support level at 38% retracement) by subtracting 38% of the high-low range from the pivot point.
Traders can use the pivot point as a reference for the market's directional bias: prices above the pivot point suggest bullish sentiment, while prices below indicate bearish sentiment. The Fibonacci levels act as potential stepping stones for price movements, offering strategic points for entry, exit, or placing stop-loss orders.
[KVA] Kamvia Directional MovementKamvia Directional Movement (KDM) Indicator is an analytical tool designed to identify potential buying and selling opportunities in the market. It highlights the phases of price depletion which typically align with price highs and lows, offering a nuanced understanding of market dynamics.
Efficient at pinpointing trend breakdowns and excelling in the identification of intra-day entry and exit points, the Kamvia Directional Movement Indicator is a valuable asset for traders aiming to optimize their market strategies.
The KDM not only takes into account the traditional high and low price points within its analysis but also introduces an innovative approach by incorporating the concepts of body high and body low. This nuanced analysis offers a deeper insight into market momentum and potential shifts in market dynamics.
High and Low Analysis : The indicator examines the price highs and lows to gauge the overall market volatility and potential turning points. By analyzing these extremities, traders can get a sense of market strength and possible shifts in trend direction. The high points indicate periods of maximum buying interest, potentially signaling overbought conditions, while the low points reflect selling interest, hinting at oversold conditions.
Body High and Body Low Analysis : Unique to the KDM Indicator is the emphasis on the body of the candlestick, which is the range between the open and close prices. This analysis offers a more refined view of market sentiment by focusing on the actual trading range experienced within the period. The body high (the upper end of the candlestick body) and body low (the lower end of the candlestick body) provide insights into the buying and selling pressure during the trading session, beyond mere price extremities.
The indicator is calibrated on a scale from 0 to 100, making interpretation intuitive and straightforward. A reading above 70 is considered to be in the overbought region, suggesting that the market might be experiencing a heightened level of buying activity that could lead to a potential pullback or reversal. Conversely, a reading below 30 falls into the oversold region, indicating a possible exhaustion in selling pressure and a potential for market reversal or bounce back.
This scale and the detailed analysis of both price and body dynamics equip traders with a comprehensive tool for assessing market conditions. The distinction between high/low and body high/body low analysis enriches the indicator's capability to provide more targeted insights into market behavior, enabling traders to make more nuanced decisions based on a broader spectrum of information. By identifying the duration and extent to which these conditions persist, traders can better interpret the market's momentum and align their strategies with the prevailing trend or prepare for an impending reversal.
KDM Strategy
The strategy focuses on spotting price reversals within a confirmed trend. While the indicator features regions indicating overbought and oversold conditions, these signals alone are not sufficient predictors of a market reversal.
The terms "overbought" and "oversold" describe scenarios where prices reach levels that are unusually high or low within a specified look-back period. Entering these zones often indicates a continuation of the trend rather than a reversal.
A "strongly overbought" condition signals buying pressure, whereas a "strongly oversold" condition indicates selling pressure. The key to leveraging these conditions lies in analyzing the duration for which the market remains in either state. This duration can provide critical insights into whether the market is trending or ranging.
Extended periods in extreme overbought territories confirm an uptrend, while prolonged presence in slight overbought zones (above 50 but below 70, for example) suggests a more moderate uptrend. Conventionally, levels above 70 signal extreme overbought conditions, and those below 30 indicate extreme oversold conditions.
Traders are advised to exercise caution when the oscillator stays within these extreme areas. Ideally, the strategy involves capitalizing on temporary price drops within an overall uptrend or on temporary price spikes within an overall downtrend.
Identifying trading opportunities with the KDM Indicator involves looking for the indicator to exit these extreme overbought or oversold regions, signaling potential reversals or continuations in the market's direction. This approach helps traders make informed decisions by considering the broader market trend alongside short-term price movements.
Fake BreakoutThis indicator detect fake breakout on previous day high/low and option previous swing high and low
Rule Detect Fake Breakout On Previous Day High/Low Or Swing high low Fake Breakout -
1) Detect previous day high/low or swing high/low
2)
A) If price revisit on previous day high/swing high look for upside breakout after input
number of candle (1-5) price came back to previous high and breakout happen downside
it show sell because its fake breakout of previous day high or swing high
B) If price revisit on previous day low/swing low look for downside breakout after input
number of candle (1-5) price came back to previous low and breakout upside of previous
day low it show Buy because its fake breakout of previous day low or swing low

libHTF[without request.security()]Library "libHTF"
libHTF: use HTF values without request.security()
This library enables to use HTF candles without request.security().
Basic data structure
Using to access values in the same manner as series variable.
The last member of HTF array is always latest current TF's data.
If new bar in HTF(same as last bar closes), new member is pushed to HTF array.
2nd from the last member of HTF array is latest fixed(closed) bar.
HTF: How to use
1. set TF
tf_higher() function selects higher TF. TF steps are ("1","5","15","60","240","D","W","M","3M","6M","Y").
example:
tfChart = timeframe.period
htf1 = tf_higher(tfChart)
2. set HTF matrix
htf_candle() function returns 1 bool and 1 matrix.
bool is a flag for start of new candle in HTF context.
matrix is HTF candle data(0:open,1:time_open,2:close,3:time_close,4:high,5:time:high,6:low,7:time_low).
example:
=htf_candle(htf1)
3. how to access HTF candle data
you can get values using .lastx() method.
please be careful, return value is always float evenif it is "time". you need to cast to int time value when using for xloc.bartime.
example:
htf1open=m1.lastx("open")
htf1close=m1.lastx("close")
//if you need to use histrical value.
lastopen=open
lasthtf1open=m1.lastx("open",1)
4. how to store Data of HTF context
you have to use array to store data of HTF context.
array.htf_push() method handles the last member of array. if new_bar in HTF, it push new member. otherwise it set value to the last member.
example:
array a_close=array.new(1,na)
a_close.htf_push(b_new_bar1,m1.lastx("close"))
HTFsrc: How to use
1. how to setup src.
set_src() function is set current tf's src from string(open/high/low/close/hl2/hlc3/ohlc4/hlcc4).
set_htfsrc() function returns src array of HTF candle.
example:
_src="ohlc4"
src=set_src(_src)
htf1src=set_htfsrc(_src,b_new_bar1,m1)
(if you need to use HTF src in series float)
s_htf1src=htf1src.lastx()
HighLow: How to use
1. set HTF arrays
highlow() and htfhighlow() function calculates high/low and return high/low prices and time.
the functions return 1 int and 8arrays.
int is a flag for new high(1) or new low(-1).
arrays are high/low and return high/low data. float for price, int for time.
example
=
highlow()
=
htfhighlow(m1)
2. how to access HighLow data
you can get values using .lastx() method.
example:
if i_renew==1
myhigh=a_high.lastx()
//if you need to use histrical value.
myhigh=a_high.lastx(1)

4H RangeThis script visualizes certain key values based on a 4-hour timeframe of the selected market on the chart. These values include the High, Mid, and Low price levels during each 4-hour period.
These levels can be helpful to identify inside range price action, chop, and consolidation. They can sometimes act as pivots and can be a great reference for potential entries and exits if price continues to hold the same range.
Here's a step-by-step overview of what this indicator does:
1. Inputs: At the beginning of the script, users are allowed to customize some inputs:
Choose the color of lines and labels.
Decide whether to show labels on the chart.
Choose the size of labels ("tiny", "small", "normal", or "large").
Choose whether to display price values in labels.
Set the number of bars to offset the labels to the right.
Set a threshold for the number of ticks that triggers a new calculation of high, mid, and low values.
* Tick settings may need to be increased on equity charts as one tick is usually equal to one cent.
For example, if you want to clear the range when there is a close one point/one dollar above or below the range high/low then on ES
that would be 4 ticks but one whole point on AAPL would be 100 ticks. 100 ticks on an equity chart may or may not be ideal due to
different % change of 100 ticks might be too excessive depending on the price per share.
So be aware that user preferred thresholds can vary greatly depending on which chart you're using.
2. Retrieving Price Data: The script retrieves the high, low, and closing price for every 4-hour period for the current market.
The script also calculates the mid-price of each 4-hour period (the average of the high and low prices).
3. Line Drawing: At the start of the script (first run), it draws three lines (high, mid, and low) at the levels corresponding to the high,
mid, and low prices. Users can also change transparency settings on historical lines to view them. Default setting for historical lines
is for them to be hidden.
4. Updating Lines and Labels: For each subsequent 4-hour period, the script checks whether the close price of the period has gone
beyond a certain threshold (set by user input) above the previous high or below the previous low. If it has, the script deletes the
previous lines and labels, draws new lines at the new high, mid, and low levels, and creates new labels (if the user has opted to
show labels).
5. Displaying Values in the Data Window: In addition to the visual representation on the chart, the script also plots the high, mid, and
low prices. These plotted values appear in the Data Window of TradingView, allowing users to see the exact price levels even when
they're not directly labeled on the chart.
6. Updating Lines and Labels Position: At the end of each period, the script moves the lines and labels (if they're shown) to the right,
keeping them aligned with the current period.
Please note: This script operates based on a 4-hour timeframe, regardless of the timeframe selected on the chart. If a shorter timeframe is selected on the chart, the lines and labels will appear to extend across multiple bars because they represent 4-hour price levels. If a longer timeframe is selected, the lines and labels may not accurately represent high, mid, and low levels within that longer timeframe.
DB Support Resistance Levels + Smart Higher Highs and Lower LowsDB Support Resistance Levels + Smart Higher Highs and Lower Lows
The indicator plots historic lines for high, low and close prices shown in settings as "base levels". Users can control the lookback period that is plotted along with an optional multiplier. Traders will notice that the price bounces off these historic base levels. The base levels are shown as light gray by default (customizable in the settings). Users may choose to display base levels by a combination of historic high, low and close values.
On top of the historic base levels, the indicator display higher high and lower low levels from the current bar high/low. Higher highs are shown by default in pink and lower lows by default in yellow. The user can adjust the lookback period for displaying higher highs and the optional multiplier. Only historic values higher than the current bar high are displayed filtering out (by highlighting) the remaining levels for the current bar. Users may choose to use a combination of historic open, low and close values for displaying higher highs. The user can adjust the lookback period for displaying lower lows and the optional multiplier. Only historic values lower than the current bar low are displayed filtering out (by highlighting) the remaining levels for the current bar. Users may choose to use a combination of historic open, low and close values for displaying lower low.
The indicator includes two optional filters for filtering out higher highs and lower lows to focus (highlight) the most relevant levels. The filters include KC and a simple price multiplier filter. The latter is enabled by default and recommended.
The indicator aims to provide two things; first a simple plot of historic base levels and second as the price moves to highlight the most relevant levels for the current price action. While the indicator works on all timeframes, it was tested with the weekly. Please keep in mind adjusting the timeframe may require the lookback settings to be adjusted to ensure the bars are within range.
How should I use this indicator?
Traders may use this indicator to gain a visual reference of support and resistance levels from higher periods of time with the most likely levels highlighted in pink and yellow. Replaying the indicator gives a visual show of levels in action and just how very often price action bounces from these highlighted levels.
Additional Notes
This indicator does increase the max total lines allowed which may impact performance depending on device specs. No alerts or signals for now. Perhaps coming soon...
Ticker Correlation Reference IndicatorHello,
I am super excited to be releasing this Ticker Correlation assessment indicator. This is a big one so let us get right into it!
Inspiration:
The inspiration for this indicator came from a similar indicator by Balipour called the Correlation with P-Value and Confidence Interval. It’s a great indicator, you should check it out!
I used it quite a lot when looking for correlations; however, there were some limitations to this indicator’s functionality that I wanted. So I decided to make my own indicator that had the functionality I wanted. I have been using this for some time but decided to actual spruce it up a bit and make it user friendly so that I could share it publically. So let me get into what this indicator does and, most importantly, the expanded functionality of this indicator.
What it does:
This indicator determines the correlation between 2 separate tickers. The user selects the two tickers they wish to compare and it performs a correlation assessment over a defaulted 14 period length and displays the results. However, the indicator takes this much further. The complete functionality of this indicator includes the following:
1. Assesses the correlation of all 4 ticker variables (Open, High, Low and Close) over a user defined period of time (defaulted to 14);
2. Converts both tickers to a Z-Score in order to standardize the data and provide a side by side comparison;
3. Displays areas of high and low correlation between all 4 variables;
4. Looks back over the consistency of the relationship (is correlation consistent among the two tickers or infrequent?);
5. Displays the variance in the correlation (there may be a statistically significant relationship, but if there is a high variance, it means the relationship is unstable);
6. Permits manual conversion between prices; and
7. Determines the degree of statistical significance (be it stable, unstable or non-existent).
I will discuss each of these functions below.
Function 1: Assesses the correlation of all 4 variables.
The only other indicator that does this only determines the correlation of the close price. However, correlation between all 4 variables varies. The correlation between open prices, high prices, low prices and close prices varies in statistically significant ways. As such, this indicator plots the correlation of all 4 ticker variables and displays each correlation.
Assessing this matters because sometimes a stock may not have the same magnitude in highs and lows as another stock (one stock may be more bullish, i.e. attain higher highs in comparison to another stock). Close price is helpful but does not pain the full picture. As such, the indicator displays the correlation relationship between all 4 variables (image below):
Function 2: Converts both tickers to Z-Score
Z-Score is a way of standardizing data. It simply measures how far a stock is trading in relation to its mean. As such, it is a way to express both tickers on a level playing field. Z-Score was also chosen because the Z-Score Values (0 – 4) also provide an appropriate scale to plot correlation lines (which range from 0 to 1).
The primary ticker (Ticker 1) is plotted in blue, the secondary comparison ticker (Ticker 2) is plotted in a colour changing format (which will be discussed below). See the image below:
Function 3: Displays areas of high and low correlation
While Ticker 1 is plotted in a static blue, Ticker 2 (the comparison ticker) is plotted in a dynamic, colour changing format. It will display areas of high correlation (i.e. areas with a P value greater than or equal to 0.9 or less than and equal to -0.9) in green, areas of moderate correlation in white. Areas of low correlation (between 0.4 and 0 or -0.4 and 0) are in red. (see image below):
Function 4: Checks consistency of relationship
While at the time of assessing a stock there very well maybe a high correlation, whether that correlation is consistent or not is the question. The indicator employs the use of the SMA function to plot the average correlation over a defined period of time. If the correlation is consistently high, the SMA should be within an area of statistical significance (over 0.5 or under -0.5). If the relationship is inconsistent, the SMA will read a lower value than the actual correlation.
You can see an example of this when you compare ETH to Tezos in the image below:
You can see that the correlation between ETH and Tezo’s on the high level seems to be inconsistent. While the current correlation is significant, the SMA is showing that the average correlation between the highs is actually less than 0.5.
The indicator also tells the user narratively the degree of consistency in the statistical relationship. This will be discussed later.
Function 5: Displays the variance
When it comes to correlation, variance is important. Variance simply means the distance between the highest and lowest value. The indicator assess the variance. A high degree of variance (i.e. a number surpassing 0.5 or greater) generally means the consistency and stability of the relationship is in issue. If there is a high variance, it means that the two tickers, while seemingly significantly correlated, tend to deviate from each other quite extensively.
The indicator will tell the user the variance in the narrative bar at the bottom of the chart (see image below):
Function 6: Permits manual conversion of price
One thing that I frequently want and like to do is convert prices between tickers. If I am looking at SPX and I want to calculate a price on SPY, I want to be able to do that quickly. This indicator permits you to do that by employing a regression based formula to convert Ticker 1 to Ticker 2.
The user can actually input which variable they would like to convert, whether they want to convert Ticker 1 Close to Ticker 2 Close, or Ticker 1 High to Ticker 2 High, or low or open.
To do this, open the settings and click “Permit Manual Conversion”. This will then take the current Ticker 1 Close price and convert it to Ticker 2 based on the regression calculations.
If you want to know what a specific price on Ticker 1 is on Ticker 2, simply click the “Allow Manual Price Input” variable and type in the price of Ticker 1 you want to know on Ticker 2. It will perform the calculation for you and will also list the standard error of the calculation.
Below is an example of calculating a SPY price using SPX data:
Above, the indicator was asked to convert an SPX price of 4,100 to a SPY price. The result was 408.83 with a standard error of 4.31, meaning we can expect 4,100 to fall within 408.83 +/- 4.31 on SPY.
Function 7: Determines the degree of statistical significance
The indicator will provide the user with a narrative output of the degree of statistical significance. The indicator looks beyond simply what the correlation is at the time of the assessment. It uses the SMA and the highest and lowest function to make an assessment of the stability of the statistical relationship and then indicates this to the user. Below is an example of IWM compared to SPY:
You will see, the indicator indicates that, while there is a statistically significant positive relationship, the relationship is somewhat unstable and inconsistent. Not only does it tell you this, but it indicates the degree of inconsistencies by listing the variance and the range of the inconsistencies.
And below is SPY to DIA:
SPY to BTCUSD:
And finally SPY to USDCAD Currency:
Other functions:
The indicator will also plot the raw or smoothed correlation result for the Open, High, Low or Close price. The default is to close price and smoothed. Smoothed just means it is displaying the SMA over the raw correlation score. Unsmoothing it will show you the raw correlation score.
The user also has the ability to toggle on and off the correlation table and the narrative table so that they can just review the chart (the side by side comparison of the 2 tickers).
Customizability
All of the functions are customizable for the most part. The user can determine the length of lookback, etc. The default parameters for all are 14. The only thing not customizable is the assessment used for determining the stability of a statistical relationship (set at 100 candle lookback) and the regression analysis used to convert price (10 candle lookback).
User Notes and important application tips:
#1: If using the manual calculation function to convert price, it is recommended to use this on the hourly or daily chart.
#2: Leaving pre-market data on can cause some errors. It is recommended to use the indicator with regular market hours enabled and extended market hours disabled.
#3: No ticker is off limits. You can compare anything against anything! Have fun with it and experiment!
Non-Indicator Specific Discussions:
Why does correlation between stocks mater?
This can matter for a number of reasons. For investors, it is good to diversify your portfolio and have a good array of stocks that operate somewhat independently of each other. This will allow you to see how your investments compare to each other and the degree of the relationship.
Another function may be getting exposure to more expensive tickers. I am guilty of trading IWM to gain exposure to SPY at a reduced cost basis :-).
What is a statistically significant correlation?
The rule of thumb is anything 0.5 or greater is considered statistically significant. The ideal setup is 0.9 or more as the effect is almost identical. That said, a lot of factors play into statistical significance. For example, the consistency and variance are 2 important factors most do not consider when ascertaining significance. Perhaps IWM and SPY are significantly correlated today, but is that a reliable relationship and can that be counted on as a rule?
These are things that should be considered when trading one ticker against another and these are things that I have attempted to address with this indicator!
Final notes:
I know I usually do tutorial videos. I have not done one here, but I will. Check back later for this.
I hope you enjoy the indicator and please feel free to share your thoughts and suggestions!
Safe trades all!
The Strat [LuxAlgo]The Strat indicator is a full toolkit regarding most of the concepts within "The Strat" methodology with features such as candle numbering, pivot machine gun (PMG) highlighting, custom combo highlighting, and various statistics included.
Alerts are also included for the detection of specific candle numbers, custom combos, and PMGs.

🔶 USAGE
This script allows users with an understanding of The Strat to quickly highlight elements such as candle numbers, pivot machine guns, and custom combos. The usage for these concepts is given in the sub-sections below.
🔹 Candle Numbers
The Strat assigns a number to individual candles, this number is determined by the current candle position relative to the precedent candle, these include:
Number 1 - Inside bar, occurs when the previous candle range engulfs the current one.
Number 2 Up - Upside Directional Bar, occurs when the current price high breaks the previous high while the current low is lower than the previous high.
Number 2 Down - Downside Directional Bar, occurs when the current price low breaks the previous low while the current high is higher than the previous low.
Number 3 - Outside bar, occurs when the current candle range engulfs the previous one.
The script can highlight the number of a candle by using labels but can also style candles by depending on the candle number. Inside bars (1) only have their candle wick highlighted, directional bars (2) (-2) only have their candle body highlighted. Outside bars have their candle range highlighted.
Note that downside directional bars are highlighted with the number -2.
Users can see the total amount of times a specific candle number is detected on the historical data on the dashboard available within the settings, as well as the number of times a candle number is detected relative to the total amount of detected candle numbers expressed as a percentage.
It is also possible to see the current candle numbers returned by multiple timeframes on the dashboard.
🔹 Searching For Custom Combos
Combos are made of a sequence of two or more candle numbers. These combos can highlight multiple reversals/continuation scenarios. Various common combos are documented by The Strat community.
This script allows users to search for custom combos by entering them on the Combo user setting field.
When a user combo is found, it is highlighted on the chart as a box highlighting the combo range.
🔹 Pivot Combos
It can be of interest to a user to display the combo associated with a pivot high/low. This script will highlight the location of pivot points on the chart and display its associated combo by default. These are based on the Pivot Combo lookback and not displayed in real-time.
Users can see on the dashboard the combos associated with a pivot high/low, these are ranked by frequency.
🔹 Pivot Machine Gun (PMG)
Pivot Machine Guns (PMG)s describe the scenario where a single price variation breaks the value of multiple past successive higher lows/lower highs. This can highlight a self-exciting behavior, where even more past successive higher lows/lower highs get broken.
Users can select the minimum sequence length of successive higher lows/lower highs required for a PMG to be detected, as well the amount of these successive higher lows/lower highs that must be broken.
VisibleChart█ OVERVIEW
This library is a Pine programmer’s tool containing functions that return values calculated from the range of visible bars on the chart.
This is now possible in Pine Script™ thanks to the recently-released chart.left_visible_bar_time and chart.right_visible_bar_time built-ins, which return the opening time of the leftmost and rightmost bars on the chart. These values update as traders scroll or zoom their charts, which gives way to a class of indicators that can dynamically recalculate and draw visuals on visible bars only, as users scroll or zoom their charts. We hope this library's functions help you make the most of the world of possibilities these new built-ins provide for Pine scripts.
For an example of a script using this library, have a look at the Chart VWAP indicator.
█ CONCEPTS
Chart properties
The new chart.left_visible_bar_time and chart.right_visible_bar_time variables return the opening time of the leftmost and rightmost bars on the chart. They are only two of many new built-ins in the `chart.*` namespace. See this blog post for more information, or look them up by typing "chart." in the Pine Script™ Reference Manual .
Dynamic recalculation of scripts on visible bars
Any script using chart.left_visible_bar_time or chart.right_visible_bar_time acquires a unique property, which triggers its recalculation when traders scroll or zoom their charts in such a way that the range of visible bars on the chart changes. This library's functions use the two recent built-ins to derive various values from the range of visible bars.
Designing your scripts for dynamic recalculation
For the library's functions to work correctly, they must be called on every bar. For reliable results, assign their results to global variables and then use the variables locally where needed — not the raw function calls.
Some functions like `barIsVisible()` or `open()` will return a value starting on the leftmost visible bar. Others such as `high()` or `low()` will also return a value starting on the leftmost visible bar, but their correct value can only be known on the rightmost visible bar, after all visible bars have been analyzed by the script.
You can plot values as the script executes on visible bars, but efficient code will, when possible, create resource-intensive labels, lines or tables only once in the global scope using var , and then use the setter functions to modify their properties on the last bar only. The example code included in this library uses this method.
Keep in mind that when your script uses chart.left_visible_bar_time or chart.right_visible_bar_time , your script will recalculate on all bars each time the user scrolls or zooms their chart. To provide script users with the best experience you should strive to keep calculations to a minimum and use efficient code so that traders are not always waiting for your script to recalculate every time they scroll or zoom their chart.
Another aspect to consider is the fact that the rightmost visible bar will not always be the last bar in the dataset. When script users scroll back in time, a large portion of the time series the script calculates on may be situated after the rightmost visible bar. We can never assume the rightmost visible bar is also the last bar of the time series. Use `barIsVisible()` to restrict calculations to visible bars, but also consider that your script can continue to execute past them.
Look first. Then leap.

Returns: (float) The VWAP for the visible time range.
Rabbit HoleHow deep is the Rabbit hole? Interesting experiment that finds the RISING HIGHS and FALLING LOWS and place the difference between the highs and lows into separate arrays.
== Calculations ==
In case current high is higher than previous high, we calculate the value by subtracting the current highest high with the previous High (lowest high) into array A,
same method for the lows just in Array B.
Since we subtract highs and lows it means velocity is taken into consideration with the plotting.
After adding a new value we remove the oldest value if the array is bigger than the Look back length. This is done for both lows and highs array.
Afterwards we sum up the lows and highs array (separately) and plot them separately, We can also smooth them a bit with Moving averages like HMA, JMA, KAMA and more.
== RULES ==
When High Lines crosses the Low Line we get a GREEN tunnel.
When Low Lines crosses the High line we get the RED tunnel.
The Greenish the stronger the up trend.
The Redish the stronger the downtrend.
== NOTES ==
Bars are not colored by default.
Better for higher time frames, 1 hour and above.
Enjoy and like if you like!

MTF Candles [Fadi x MMT]MTF Candles
Overview
The MTF Candles indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who want to visualize higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly on their current chart. Built with flexibility and precision in mind, this Pine Script indicator displays up to six higher timeframe candles, complete with customizable styling, sweeps, midpoints, fair value gaps (FVGs), volume imbalances, and trace lines. It’s perfect for multi-timeframe analysis, helping traders identify key levels, market structure, and potential trading opportunities with ease.
Key Features
- Multi-Timeframe Candles : Display up to six higher timeframe candles (e.g., 5m, 15m, 30m, 4H, 1D, 1W) on your chart, with configurable timeframes and visibility.
- Sweeps Detection : Identify liquidity sweeps (highs/lows) with customizable line styles, widths, and colors, plus optional alerts for confirmed bullish or bearish sweeps.
- Midpoint Lines : Plot the midpoint (average of high and low) of the previous HTF candle, with customizable color, width, and style for enhanced market analysis.
- Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) : Highlight gaps between non-adjacent candles, indicating potential areas of interest for price action.
- Volume Imbalances : Detect and display volume imbalances between adjacent candles, aiding in spotting significant price levels.
- Trace Lines : Connect HTF candle open, close, high, and low prices to their respective chart bars, with customizable styles and optional price labels.
- Custom Daily Open Times : Support for custom daily candle open times (Midnight, 8:30, or 9:30) to align with specific market sessions.
- Dynamic Labels : Show timeframe names, remaining time until the next HTF candle, and interval labels (e.g., day of the week for daily candles) with adjustable positions and sizes.
- Highly Customizable : Fine-tune candle appearance, spacing, padding, and visual elements to suit your trading style.
How It Works
The indicator renders HTF candles as boxes (bodies) and lines (wicks) on the right side of the chart, with each timeframe offset for clarity. It dynamically updates candles in real-time, tracks their highs and lows, and displays sweeps and midpoints when conditions are met. FVGs and volume imbalances are calculated based on candle relationships, and trace lines link HTF candle levels to their originating bars on the chart.
Sweep Logic
- A bearish sweep occurs when the current candle’s high exceeds the previous candle’s high, but the close is below it.
- A bullish sweep occurs when the current candle’s low falls below the previous candle’s low, but the close is above it.
- Sweeps are visualized as horizontal lines and can trigger alerts when confirmed on the next candle.
Midpoint Logic
- A midpoint line is drawn at the average of the previous HTF candle’s high and low, extending until the next HTF candle forms.
- Useful for identifying potential support/resistance or mean reversion levels.
Imbalance Detection
- FVGs : Identified when a candle’s low is above the next-but-one candle’s high (or vice versa), indicating a price gap.
- Volume Imbalances : Detected between adjacent candles where the body of one candle doesn’t overlap with the next, signaling potential liquidity zones.
Settings
Timeframe Settings

Time Zone: Custom daily opens use the America/New_York time zone for consistency with major financial markets.
Compatibility: Ensure selected HTFs are valid (higher than the chart’s timeframe and divisible by it for intraday periods).
Gabriel's Andean Oscillator📈 Gabriel's Andean Oscillator — Enhanced Trend-Momentum Hybrid
Gabriel's Andean Oscillator is a sophisticated trend-momentum indicator inspired by Alex Grover’s original Andean Oscillator concept. This enhanced version integrates multiple envelope types, smoothing options, and the ability to track volatility from both open/close and high/low dynamics—making it more responsive, adaptable, and visually intuitive.
🔍 What It Does
This oscillator measures bullish and bearish "energy" by calculating variance envelopes around price. Instead of traditional momentum formulas, it builds two exponential variance envelopes—one capturing the downside (bullish potential) and the other capturing the upside (bearish pressure). The result is a smoothed oscillator that reflects internal market tension and potential breakouts.
⚙️ Key Features
📐 Envelope Types:
Choose between:
"Regular" – Uses single EMA-based smoothing on open/close variance. Ideal for shorter timeframes.
"Double Smoothed" – Adds an extra layer of smoothing for noise reduction. Ideal for longer timeframes.
📊 Bullish & Bearish Components:
Bull = Measures potential upside using price lows (or open/close).
Bear = Measures downside pressure using highs (or open/close).
These can optionally be derived from high/low or open/close for flexible interpretation.
📏 Signal Line:
A customizable EMA of the dominant component to confirm momentum direction.
📉 Break Zone Area Plot:
An optional filled area showing when bull > bear or vice versa, useful for detecting expansion/contraction phases.
🟢 High/Low Overlay Option (Use Highs and Lows?):
Visualize secondary components derived from high/low prices to compare against the open/close dynamics and highlight volatility asymmetry.
🧠 How to Use It
Trend Confirmation:
When bull > bear and rising above signal → bullish bias.
When bear > bull and rising above signal → bearish bias.
Breakout Potential:
Watch the Break area plot (√(bull - bear)) for rapid expansion, signaling volatility bursts or directional moves.
High/Low Envelope Divergence:
Enabling the high/low comparison reveals hidden strength or weakness not visible in open/close alone.
🛠 Customizable Inputs
Envelope Type: Regular vs. Double Smoothed
EMA Envelope Lengths: For both regular and smoothed logic
Signal Length: Controls EMA smoothing for the signal
Use Highs and Lows?: Toggles second set of envelopes; the original doesn't include highs and lows.
Plot Breaks: Enables the filled “break” zone area, the squared difference between Open and Close.
