Pivot Liquidity Sweep + SignalsCore Functionalities:
Sweep Signals:
The indicator identifies sweeps of liquidity by detecting when price exceeds recent pivot highs (swing highs) or pivot lows (swing lows) and then reverses direction. It draws attention to these scenarios by labeling them on the chart.
For bullish sweep signals, the entry point is the closing price of the sweep candle, with the stop loss placed at the highest point between the sweep candle and the previous candle.
For bearish sweeps, the entry point is similarly identified, with the stop loss being the lowest price of the sweep candle and the candle before it. The profit target is dynamically set to the low or high of the closest valid pivot depending on the direction of the trade.
Rejection Signals:
Rejection signals are identified when price attempts to break a pivot high or low but fails, causing a rejection.
Bullish rejections involve price trying to break a pivot low but closing back above it, indicating potential for a bounce.
Bearish rejections follow a similar pattern, with price attempting to break a pivot high but failing to hold above it, signaling a potential bearish move.
High-Precision Intrabar Data:
The "Intrabar Precision" feature allows the indicator to use lower timeframe data to accurately plot sweeps and rejections, providing traders with precise entry and exit points.
The intrabar settings are particularly useful for traders looking for high-precision trades, such as scalpers who want to capture small yet consistent moves.
ATR and Percentage-Based Filters:
The indicator allows for customizable filters to ensure signals meet certain thresholds before being validated. Traders can use ATR (Average True Range) or percentage-based conditions to filter out low-quality signals, ensuring that the trades captured have enough volatility or price movement potential.
Dashboard:
The built-in dashboard provides a quick overview of trades executed using the indicator, displaying metrics such as the total number of sweep and rejection trades, their success rates, and total profit in points.
The dashboard is color-coded for easy reading and offers traders insights into the overall performance of their strategy, helping with ongoing evaluation and optimization.
Labeling and Alerts:
Every time a sweep or rejection signal is detected, the indicator automatically labels the chart to help traders quickly identify the trading opportunities.
Alerts are also generated for each trading signal, providing the trader with real-time notifications, which can be useful for those who are not constantly monitoring their charts.
Stop Loss and Target Adaptation:
The stop loss levels are adjusted dynamically based on the recent pivot points, and the target profit is derived from valid subsequent pivot levels to ensure realistic and efficient trade exits.

Volume Insignts AnalyzerDescription:
The Volume Insight Analyzer is an advanced Pine Script designed for traders who want a comprehensive view of volume dynamics on their charts. This script combines multiple volume-based indicators to help identify key trading opportunities, including significant volume days, volume dry-ups, and pocket pivots.
Key Features:
VDU (Volume Dry-Up) Detection: Automatically identifies and marks days when the volume is significantly below its moving average, helping to spot potential breakout or breakdown points. Customizable volume thresholds allow for tailored analysis based on your trading strategy. The Volume Dry-Up label appears when the volume is substantially below its average level and the price is near a key moving average. This condition indicates a period of equilibrium between supply and demand, suggesting a potential low-risk entry point for traders.
Pocket Pivot Analysis using 5 and 10 Length Pocket Pivots: Highlights days with exceptionally high volume compared to recent history, indicating potential pocket pivots. Visual markers on the chart and volume bars color-coded for 5 and 10-day lengths. Pocket pivot points are identified when the volume on a given day exceeds the maximum volume observed over the past several days. Specifically, a 5-day pocket pivot point is marked when today's volume surpasses the highest selling volume of the last 5 days. A cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points within a base is a strong indicator of stock strength. Similarly, a 10-day pocket pivot point following a Volume Dry-Up (VDU) suggests a potential entry opportunity. Moreover, a pre-existing cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points before a 10-day pocket pivot point provides greater conviction in the trade.
Volume Moving Averages: Set different lengths for primary and secondary moving averages to track volume trends over daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes. Options to display moving average lines on the volume chart.
Volume Visualization:
a. Major and Minor Volume Bars: Option to display bars that are either above or below average volume levels. Adjustable settings to show or hide these bars based on user preference.
b. Volume Bar Coloring: Volume bars are color-coded based on significant volume thresholds, including green for bullish signals, red for bearish signals, and orange for volume dry-ups.
Volume Metrics Table: A customizable table that displays real-time volume metrics including Relative Volume (RVOL), Turnover, and the number of high volume days. The table can be oriented horizontally or vertically and styled according to your theme preferences.
Visual Indicators:
a) Volume Dry-Up (VDU) Labels: Clearly marked VDU events with textual annotations on the chart.
b) Bullish and Bearish Arrows: Arrows indicating potential bullish or bearish closes based on volume analysis, enhancing decision-making.
Customization Options:
a) Dark and Light Theme Support: Toggle between dark and light themes to match your chart settings.
b) Adjustable Parameters: Easily configure input settings such as volume thresholds, MA lengths, and table display options to fit your trading style.
How to Use:
Set Parameters: Adjust the script settings such as volume thresholds, moving average lengths, and display preferences according to your analysis needs.
Analyze Volume Patterns: Use the indicators and visual markers provided by the script to identify significant volume patterns and potential trading signals.
Monitor Metrics: Refer to the volume metrics table for a quick overview of key volume-related statistics and trends.
Make Informed Decisions: Utilize the visual cues and volume data provided by the script to enhance your trading strategy and make more informed decisions.

Support and Resistance Polynomial Regressions | Flux ChartsOverview
This script is a dynamic form of support and resistance. Support and resistance plots areas where price commonly reverses its direction or “pivots”. A resistance line for instance is typically found by locating a price point where multiple high pivots occur. A high pivot is where a price increases for a number of bars then decreases for a number of bars creating a local maximum. This script takes the high pivots points but rather than using a horizontal line a polynomial regressed line is used.
It is common to see consecutive higher highs or lower lows or a mixed pattern of both so a classical support or resistance line can be insufficient. This script lets users find a polynomial of best fit for high pivots and low pivots creating a resistance and support line respectively.
Here are the same two sets of high and low pivots the first using linear regressed support and resistance lines the second using quadratic.
Here are the predicted results:
The Quadratic regression gives a much more accurate prediction of future pivot areas and the increase in variance of the data.
Quick Start
Add the script to the chart. Then select a left point and right point on the chart. This will be the data the script uses to calculate a best fit resistance line. Then select another left and right point that will be for the support line.
Now you can confirm your basic settings like the type of regression: Linear Regression, Quadratic Regression, Cubic Regression or Custom Regression.
After confirming the lines will be plotted on the graph.
Custom Polynomial Regression Setting
Polynomials follow the form:
The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent in the equation. For example the polynomial ax^2 + bx + c has a degree of 2.
Here are the default polynomial options and their equivalent custom polynomial entry:
This allows us to create regressions with a custom number of inflection points. An inflection point is a point where the graph changes from concave up to concave down or vice versa. The maximum number of inflection points a polynomial can have is the degree - 2. Having multiple inflection points in our regression allows for having a closer fit minimizing error.
It should be noted that having a closer fit is not inherently better; this can cause overfitting. Overfitting is when a model is too closely fit to the training data and not generalizable to the population data.
Market Pivot Levels [Past & Live]Market Levels provide a robust view of daily pivot points of markets such as high/low/close with both past and live values shown at the same time using the recently updated system of polylines of pinescript.
The main need for this script arose from not being able to use plots for daily points because plots are inherently once drawn can't be erased and because we can't plot stuff for previous bars after values are determined we can't use them reliably. And while we can use traditional lines, because we would have extremely high amount of lines and we would have to keep removing the previous ones it wouldn't be that effective way for us. So we try to do it with the new method of polylines .
Features of this script:
- Daily High/Low Points
- Yesterday High/Low/Close Points
- Pre-Market High-Low points.
Now let's preview some of the important points of code and see how we achieve this:
With the code below we make sure no matter which chart we are using we are getting the extended hours version of sessions so our calculations are made safely for viewing pre-market conditions.
// Let's get ticker extended no matter what the current chart is
tc = ticker.new(syminfo.prefix, syminfo.ticker, session.extended)
Coding our own function to calculate high's and low's because inbuilt pinescript function cannot take series and we send this function to retrieve our high's and lows.
// On the fly function to calculate daily highlows instead of tv inbuilt because tv's length cannot take series
f_highlow(int last) =>
bardiff = last
float _low = low, float _high = high
for i = bardiff to 0 by 1
if high > _high
_high := high
if low < _low
_low := low
With doing calculations at the bars of day ending points we can retrieve the correct points and values and push them for our polylines array so it can be used in best way possible.
// Daily change points
changeD = timeframe.change("D")
// When new day starts fill polyline arrays with previous day values for polylines to draw on chart
// We also update prevtime values with current ones after we pushed to the arrays
if changeD
f_arrFill(cpArrHigh, cpArrLow, prevArrh, prevArrl, prevArrc, prevMarh, prevMarl)
valHolder.unshift(valueHold.new(_high, _low, _high, _close, _low, time, pr_h, pr_l))
The rest of the code is annotated and commented. You can let me know in comments if you have any questions. Happy trading.
Hybrid Smart Money Concepts [MarkitTick]💡This indicator provides a comprehensive technical analysis system that combines Market Structure concepts (Smart Money Concepts) with advanced Gap Analysis and a statistical Stress Model. It is designed to help traders identify trend direction, structural pivot points, potential reversal zones (Order Blocks), significant price gaps, and moments of market exhaustion.
Unlike standard ZigZag or Fractal indicators, this script integrates volume, trend maturity, and statistical volatility (Z-Score) to contextually classify price action. By overlaying these elements with a robust Market Structure engine—which identifies Change of Character (CHoCH) and Order Blocks—the tool provides a confluent view of price action.
It automates the detection of institutional footprints, allowing traders to see the structural trend, momentum drivers, and potential exhaustion points simultaneously.
● METHODOLOGY
The script operates on three distinct but complementary logic engines:
• Gap Analysis Engine
This module detects gaps between the previous high/low and the current open. It classifies them into three specific types based on volume and structural context:
Breakaway Gaps: Identified when a gap creates a breakout above a recent Pivot High or below a Pivot Low. This signals the start of a potential new trend.
Exhaustion Gaps: Identified when a gap occurs with high relative volume and meets the Trend Maturity criteria. This often signals the end of a trend.
Runaway Gaps: Standard continuation gaps that occur within a trend.
• Market Structure Engine
Swings and CHoCH: The script uses a left-and-right bar lookback to identify Pivot Highs and Lows. A Change of Character (CHoCH) is plotted when price closes beyond the most recent major pivot.
Order Blocks (OB): Upon a continuation of the trend, the script scans backward to find the extreme candle (the origin of the move) and highlights this zone as an Order Block.
Dynamic Cleanup: Gaps and Order Blocks are automatically removed (mitigated) when price aggressively crosses through their levels.
• Exhaustion & Stress Model
This statistical engine measures market "Stress" by analyzing the impact of price range relative to volume (True Range / Volume).
Calculation: It calculates a Z-Score (Standard Deviation) of this impact.
Logic: When the Z-Score exceeds a specific threshold (Sigma), it indicates a statistical anomaly or "Stress."
Signal: If high stress occurs while price is significantly above the trend baseline, it signals "Buyer Exhaustion." Conversely, high stress below the baseline signals "Seller Exhaustion."
● VISUALS & LEGEND
Before trading, you need to know what the indicator is drawing on your chart:
• Change of Character (CHoCH)
Green Dashed Line: Indicates a Bullish reversal.
Red Dashed Line: Indicates a Bearish reversal.
• Order Blocks (OB)
Green Boxes: Bullish support zones (Buy interest).
Red Boxes: Bearish resistance zones (Sell interest).
Note: Invalidated boxes are automatically deleted.
• Gaps
Blue Box (Breakaway): Strong momentum gap starting a new trend.
Orange Box (Runaway): Continuation gap.
Red Box (Exhaustion): Warning signal; trend may be ending.
• Stress Model Signals
Label "BE" (Red): Buyer Exhaustion. Suggests the bullish move is overextended relative to volume participation.
Label "SE" (Green): Seller Exhaustion. Suggests the bearish move is overextended.
● TRADING STRATEGY
You can use a "Pullback, Continuation & Exhaustion" strategy with this indicator.
• Scenario A: Long Setup (Buying)
Trend Change: Look for a CHoCH label with a Green Dashed Line.
Entry Zone: Look for a Green Order Block (OB) to form.
Confirmation: A Breakaway Gap (Blue) validates the breakout.
Entry: Enter Long when price pulls back into the Green OB.
Exit Warning: If a "BE" (Buyer Exhaustion) label appears, consider tightening stops or taking profit.
• Scenario B: Short Setup (Selling)
Trend Change: Look for a CHoCH label with a Red Dashed Line.
Entry Zone: Look for a Red Order Block (OB) to form.
Confirmation: A Breakaway Gap downwards validates the move.
Entry: Enter Short when price rallies back into the Red OB.
Exit Warning: If an "SE" (Seller Exhaustion) label appears, consider tightening stops or taking profit.

SemiCircle Cycle Notation PivotsFor decades, traders have sought to decode the rhythm of the markets through cycle theory. From the groundbreaking work of HM Gartley in the 1930s to modern-day cycle trading tools on TradingView, the concept remains the same: markets move in repeating waves with larger cycles influencing smaller ones in a fractal-like structure, and understanding their timing gives traders an edge to better anticipate future price movements🔮.
Traditional cycle analysis has always been manual, requiring traders to painstakingly plot semicircles, diamonds, or sine waves to estimate pivot points and time reversals. Drawing tools like semicircle & sine wave projections exist on TradingView, but they lack automation—forcing traders to adjust cycle lengths by eye, often leading to inconsistencies.
This is where SemiCircle Cycle Notation Pivots indicator comes in. Semicircle cycle chart notation appears to have evolved as a practical visualization tool among cycle theorists rather than being pioneered by a single individual; some key influences include HM Gartley, WD Gann, JM Hurst, Walter Bressert, and RayTomes. Built upon LonesomeTheBlue's foundational ZigZag Waves indicator , this indicator takes cycle visualization to the next level by dynamically detecting price pivots and then automatically plotting semicircles based on real-time cycle length calculations & expected rhythm of price action over time.
Key Features:
Automated Cycle Detection: The indicator identifies pivot points based on your preference—highs, lows, or both—and plots semicircle waves that correspond to Hurst's cycle notation.
Customizable Cycle Lengths: Tailor the analysis to your trading strategy with adjustable cycle lengths, defaulting to 10, 20, and 40 bars, allowing for flexibility across various timeframes and assets.
Dynamic Wave Scaling: The semicircle waves adapt to different price structures, ensuring that the visualization remains proportional to the detected cycle lengths and aiding in the identification of potential reversal points.
Automated Cycle Detection: Dynamically identifies price pivot points and automatically adjusts offsets based on real-time cycle length calculations, ensuring precise semicircle wave alignment with market structure.
Color-Coded Cycle Tiers: Each cycle tier is distinctly color-coded, enabling quick differentiation and a clearer understanding of nested market cycles.
Multi-ticker Daily Pivot AlertDescription:
The Big Tech Daily Pivot Alert is a powerful TradingView indicator designed to monitor daily pivot points for major tech and market-leading tickers. It provides real-time alerts when prices approach their daily pivot levels, helping traders identify potential trading opportunities during the U.S. market hours.
Key Features:
Multi-Ticker Monitoring: Tracks the daily pivot points for top tech and market tickers, including NVDA, TSLA, AMZN, NFLX, SPY, QQQ, GOOGL, MSFT, META, and AAPL.
Daily Pivot Calculations: Uses yesterday's high, low, and close prices to calculate the pivot point for each ticker.
Real-Time Alerts: Sends instant alerts when the open, high, low, or current price is near the pivot point (within 0.25% tolerance).
Time-Sensitive Alerts: Operates exclusively during U.S. market hours (6:00 AM to 1:00 PM PST) on weekdays (Monday to Friday).
Customizable Alert Format: Alerts are sent as JSON payloads for seamless integration with platforms like Discord or other webhook-supported systems.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates the daily pivot point for each ticker using the formula:
Pivot Point = (High + Low + Close) / 3
It continuously monitors the open, high, low, and current prices of each ticker on a 1-minute timeframe.
If any value approaches the pivot point within a configurable threshold (default: 0.25%), it triggers an alert with detailed information for all tickers meeting the criteria.
Who Should Use It:
Day Traders: Spot potential price reversal or breakout levels based on pivot point testing.
Swing Traders: Identify key levels of support and resistance to inform trading decisions.
Tech and Market Enthusiasts: Stay updated on critical price levels for major tech and market tickers.
Instructions:
Add the indicator to your chart.

Monitor alerts for actionable opportunities when prices test pivot points.
Dollar Cost Averaging (YavuzAkbay)The Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) indicator is designed to support long-term investors following a Dollar Cost Averaging strategy. The core aim of this tool is to provide insights into overbought and oversold levels, assisting investors in managing buy and sell decisions with a clear visual cue system. Specifically developed for use in trending or fluctuating markets, this indicator leverages support and resistance levels to give structure to investors' buying strategies. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the indicator’s key features and intended usage:
Key Features and Color Coding
Overbought/Oversold Detection:
The indicator shades candles from light green to dark green when an asset becomes increasingly overbought. Dark green signals indicate a peak, where the asset is overbought, suggesting a potential opportunity to take partial profits.
Conversely, candles turn from light red to dark red when the market is oversold. Dark red signifies a heavily oversold condition, marking an ideal buying window for initiating or adding to a position. This color scheme provides a quick visual reference for investors to manage entries and exits effectively.
Support and Resistance Levels:
To address the risk of assets falling further after an overbought signal, the DCA indicator dynamically calculates support and resistance levels. These levels guide investors on key price areas to watch for potential price reversals, allowing them to make more informed buying or selling decisions.
Support levels help investors assess whether they should divide their capital across multiple buy orders, starting at the current oversold zone and extending to anticipated support zones for maximum flexibility.
Usage Methodology
This indicator is intended for Dollar Cost Averaging, a method where investors gradually add to their position rather than entering all at once. Here’s how it complements the DCA approach:
Buy at Oversold Levels: When the indicator shows a dark red candle, it signals that the asset is oversold, marking an optimal entry point. The presence of support levels can help investors determine if they should fully invest their intended amount or stagger buys at potential lower levels.
Sell at Overbought Levels: When the indicator transitions to dark green, it suggests that the asset is overbought. This is an ideal time to consider selling a portion of holdings to realize gains. The resistance levels, marked by the indicator, offer guidance on where the price may encounter selling pressure, aiding investors in planning partial exits.
Customizable Settings
The DCA indicator offers several user-adjustable parameters:
Pivot Frequency and Source: Define the pivot point frequency and the source (candle wick or body) for more tailored support/resistance detection.
Maximum Pivot Points: Set the maximum number of pivot points to be used in support/resistance calculations, providing flexibility in adapting to different market structures.
Channel Width and Line Width: Adjust the width of the channel for support/resistance levels and the thickness of the lines for easier visual tracking.
Color Intensities for Overbought/Oversold Levels: Customize the shading intensity for each overbought and oversold level to align with your trading preferences.
Polygonal Pivot Bands [FXSMARTLAB]The Polygonal Pivot Bands highlights key price pivots, dynamic support and resistance levels, and recent price action on a trading chart. This indicator connects pivot highs and lows with a zigzag line, extends a real-time dashed line to the latest price point, and plots diagonal support/resistance levels that adapt to price movement. These elements together provide traders with a view of significant price zones and potential trend shifts.
Key Components of the Indicator
Pivots are calculated based on user-defined lengths, specifying how many bars on either side of a high or low are required to validate it as a pivot.
Adjustable left and right pivot lengths allow traders to control the sensitivity of pivot detection, with higher values resulting in fewer, more prominent pivots, and lower values increasing sensitivity to price changes.
Zigzag Line
The zigzag line connects consecutive pivot points, filtering out smaller fluctuations and emphasizing the broader direction of price movement.
Users can customize the line's color and thickness to match their preferences, helping them focus on larger trends and potential reversal points.
By linking pivot highs and lows, the zigzag pattern highlights the overall trend and potential points of reversal.
Real-Time Connector Line
A dashed line extends from the last confirmed pivot to the latest price point, providing a real-time, bar-by-bar update of the current price relative to the previous pivot.
This line does not project future price direction but maintains an up-to-date connection with the current price, showing the distance from the last pivot.
Its color and thickness are customizable for improved visibility on the chart.
Dynamic Support and Resistance Levels
The indicator plots dynamic support and resistanc e levels by connecting recent pivot highs and lows, resulting in lines that may appear diagonal rather than strictly horizontal.
These levels move in line with price action, adapting to the natural direction of trends, and offer visual cues where price may encounter support or resistance.
Colors and thickness of these lines can be set individually, allowing traders to adjust visibility according to their preferences.
Enabling these lines gives traders an ongoing reference for critical price boundaries that align more closely with the overall trend.
Standard and Camarilla pivotsHi guys, I would like too introduce to all of you my script. As the name already tell you what this script is all about. It's about pivot points.
You may ask, Tradingview already have a script for pivot points, why would I need another script?
here is the answer: This script allow you to add more than one type of pivot, sounds good right?
But there's more: You can see not just one timeframe pivots, you can see many timeframe pivots, nice huh?
let dive into it to know a bit more.
In this script you can see daily pivots include Standard pivots as R1, R2, R3 and Camarilla pivots as cR1, cR2, cR3, and I you different color for different pivots, so you don't confuse between those two.
You can see weekly pivots the same as daily pivots only has letter "w" in front of it, for examples: "wR1, wR2, wcR1, wcR2" ,nice right?
What's about month level: yes, you can see monthly pivots too, and it start with "m".
Along with pivots points above, you also can see daily open, previous day close, previous high,.., for instances: daily open as "O", previous day open as "PDO",
You are able to see previous week level, previous month levels.
have fun.
I dont wanna lock this script because open-source script help me learn how to code pine script, so that's why I keep it open. Thank to all the coders out there that shared everything they have for us to learn.
Pivot Bollinger BandThis is a special kind of Bollinger Bands indicator that adapts to the market's pivot points. Instead of using regular price data, it first finds important swing highs and lows in the market (called pivot points). It then uses these pivot points to create a center line, which is like a moving average of where the market is pivoting.
Around this center line, it draws the classic Bollinger Bands - an upper and lower band that show where prices might find resistance or support. The distance between these bands changes based on market volatility, just like regular Bollinger Bands. You can adjust how sensitive it is to pivot points and how wide the bands should be.
By using pivot point based Bollinger Bands, we expect band breakout can be captured more effectively.
Options Series - Dynamic Support & Resistance
🌟 Key Features & How It Works:
⭐ Dynamic Support and Resistance Management:
The script dynamically calculates and draws support and resistance lines based on pivot highs and pivot lows. Unlike static levels that remain unchanged, these lines are updated in real-time. When a support or resistance level is breached, the corresponding line is automatically deleted, keeping the chart clean and relevant. This feature ensures that the trader is always looking at valid support and resistance levels based on the current price action.
⭐ Use of Arrays for Line Management:
The script utilizes arrays to store and manage support and resistance lines (array.new_line(0)). This is a more advanced feature of Pine Script v5, allowing for efficient handling of multiple lines on the chart. By using arrays, the script can easily track and manipulate multiple lines (adding, removing, updating), ensuring that the chart remains optimized for real-time analysis.
⭐ Customizable Inputs for Flexibility:
The script includes user inputs for the pivot length and the line width, making it adaptable to different trading styles and preferences. The pivot length determines how sensitive the indicator is to price changes, while the line width allows traders to customize the visual representation of support and resistance levels. These inputs add flexibility and make the script accessible to a broad range of traders.
⭐ Efficient Breach Detection Mechanism:
The isBreached function is a key part of the script. It checks whether the current price has breached any of the existing support or resistance levels. If a breach is detected (i.e., the price crosses below a support or above a resistance), the respective line is deleted, ensuring that only active and valid lines remain on the chart. This automatic update feature reduces the need for manual intervention, helping traders stay focused on key price levels.
⭐ Visual Clarity and Chart Cleanliness:
By deleting breached lines, the script ensures that the chart does not become cluttered with outdated or irrelevant lines. This visual clarity is crucial for traders who rely on clean, simple charts for decision-making. Removing unnecessary information helps traders make faster, more confident decisions based on the current market structure.
⭐ Scalability for Multiple Timeframes:
The use of pivot points makes the script adaptable to different timeframes, from intraday scalping to longer-term swing trading. By changing the pivot length, traders can optimize the indicator for different market environments, ensuring that it can be applied across various asset classes and timeframes.
⭐ Practical for Range-bound and Breakout Trading:
This script is particularly effective for traders who focus on range-bound markets or breakout strategies. It allows them to quickly identify areas where price is likely to reverse (support/resistance) or break out (when support/resistance is breached), providing real-time insight into market dynamics.
⭐ Simplification of Price Action Analysis:
By automating the calculation of pivots and management of support/resistance levels, the script simplifies price action analysis. Traders no longer need to manually draw or monitor these levels, which is a common task in technical analysis. This provides an edge, as it reduces the time spent on chart preparation and helps focus on executing trades.
⭐ Originality:
The script "Options Series - Pivot Based Support & Resistance" is an original approach to generating support and resistance levels using pivot points. Pivot-based techniques are popular, but the script introduces an automated dynamic way of drawing support and resistance lines, tracking breaches, and deleting lines when they are no longer valid. This aspect adds a refreshing layer of interactivity and functionality that sets it apart from basic pivot point scripts. The use of arrays to store and manage multiple support and resistance lines is also a good application of Pine Script’s newer array functionalities.
⭐ Uniqueness of the Script:
The script stands out due to its dynamic management of support and resistance lines. Unlike traditional scripts that simply plot static pivot points, this one evolves with the market by removing broken levels, ensuring only valid support and resistance lines are visible on the chart. This is particularly useful for traders who focus on clean charting. The use of arrays to store and manage the lines, alongside the efficient deletion of lines when breached, demonstrates a solid understanding of Pine Script v5's advanced features, such as array manipulation.
🚀 Conclusion:
This script stands out for its real-time adaptability, dynamic support/resistance management, and efficient use of Pine Script’s advanced features. It a powerful tool for both novice and advanced traders.
The script is an indicator designed to draw support and resistance levels based on pivot highs and lows, dynamically removing lines when they are breached. If a price crosses a support or resistance level, the respective line is deleted, ensuring the chart reflects the current state of support and resistance accurately.
Volumatic Variable Index Dynamic Average [BigBeluga]The Volumatic VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) indicator is a trend-following tool that calculates and visualizes both the current trend and the corresponding buy and sell pressure within each trend phase. Using the Variable Index Dynamic Average as the core smoothing technique, this indicator also plots volume levels of lows and highs based on market structure pivot points, providing traders with key insights into price and volume dynamics.
Additionally, it generates delta volume values to help traders evaluate buy-sell pressure balance during each trend, making it a powerful tool for understanding market sentiment shifts.
BTC:
TSLA:
🔵 IDEA
The Volumatic VIDYA indicator's core idea is to provide a dynamic, adaptive smoothing tool that identifies trends while simultaneously calculating the volume pressure behind them. The VIDYA line, based on the Variable Index Dynamic Average, adjusts according to the strength of the price movements, offering a more adaptive response to the market compared to standard moving averages.
By calculating and displaying the buy and sell volume pressure throughout each trend, the indicator provides traders with key insights into market participation. The horizontal lines drawn from the highs and lows of market structure pivots give additional clarity on support and resistance levels, backed by average volume at these points. This dual analysis of trend and volume allows traders to evaluate the strength and potential of market movements more effectively.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
VIDYA Calculation:
The Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA) is a special type of moving average that adjusts dynamically to the market’s volatility and momentum. Unlike traditional moving averages that use fixed periods, VIDYA adjusts its smoothing factor based on the relative strength of the price movements, using the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) to capture the magnitude of price changes. When momentum is strong, VIDYA adapts and smooths out price movements quicker, making it more responsive to rapid price changes. This makes VIDYA more adaptable to volatile markets compared to traditional moving averages such as the Simple Moving Average (SMA) or the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which are less flexible.
// VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) function
vidya_calc(src, vidya_length, vidya_momentum) =>

float sum_neg_momentum = math.sum((momentum >= 0) ? 0.0 : -momentum, vidya_momentum)

Triangle Trend Shift Signals:
The indicator marks trend shifts with up and down triangles, signaling a potential change in direction. These signals appear when the price crosses above a VIDYA during an uptrend or crosses below during a downtrend.
Volume Pressure Calculation:
The Volumatic VIDYA tracks the buy and sell pressure during each trend, calculating the cumulative volume for up and down bars. Positive delta volume occurs during uptrends due to higher buy pressure, while negative delta volume reflects higher sell pressure during downtrends. The delta is displayed in real-time on the chart, offering a quick view of volume imbalances.
Market Structure Pivot Lines with Volume Labels:
The indicator draws horizontal lines based on market structure pivots, which are calculated using the highs and lows of price action. These lines are extended on the chart until price crosses them. The indicator also plots the average volume over a 6-bar range to provide a clearer understanding of volume dynamics at critical points.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
VIDYA Length & Momentum: Control the sensitivity of the VIDYA line by adjusting the length and momentum settings, allowing traders to customize the smoothing effect to match their trading style.
Volume Pivot Detection: Set the number of bars to consider for identifying pivots, which influences the calculation of the average volume at key levels.
Band Distance: Adjust the band distance multiplier for controlling how far the upper and lower bands extend from the VIDYA line, based on the ATR (Average True Range).
Uptrick: Recent Support and Resistance LinesThe indicator titled "Uptrick: Recent Support and Resistance Lines" is a technical analysis tool designed for overlay on price charts. It aims to identify and visualize recent support and resistance levels based on pivot points within a specified range.
Key Features and Functionality:
Pivot Length Parameter:
The indicator allows the user to input a pivot length parameter, which defines the range over which the pivot points (highs and lows) are calculated. By default, this length is set to 50 bars.
Support and Resistance Calculation:
The indicator dynamically calculates the most recent support and resistance levels based on pivot points.
Pivot Highs and Lows:
A pivot high is defined as a price level where a bar's high is higher than the highs of the bars around it for a given number of bars defined by the pivot length.
A pivot low is the opposite, where a bar's low is lower than the lows of the surrounding bars within the same range.
Support Line:
When a new pivot low is identified, this becomes the new recent support level.
The indicator creates a horizontal line at this support level, starting from the bar where it was identified and extending to the current bar. This line is colored green and is drawn with a width of 2 pixels. If a support line already exists, it is deleted and replaced with the new line.
Resistance Line:
Similarly, when a new pivot high is detected, it updates the recent resistance level.
A horizontal line is drawn at this resistance level, starting from the bar where it was identified and extending to the current bar. This line is colored red and also drawn with a width of 2 pixels. As with the support line, any existing resistance line is deleted and replaced with the new one.
Visual Representation:
The support and resistance lines extend to the right, providing a clear visual guide on the chart. This helps traders identify key levels where price has previously found support or encountered resistance, which can be critical for making trading decisions.
Practical Application:
Trading Decisions:
Traders can use the visual cues from the support and resistance lines to make informed trading decisions. For instance, they might place buy orders near support levels and sell orders near resistance levels.
The dynamic nature of these lines helps in adapting to the most recent market conditions, ensuring that the levels are relevant to the current price action.
Trend Analysis:
The indicator can assist in analyzing the overall trend. In an uptrend, the support levels may progressively rise, while in a downtrend, resistance levels may drop.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who rely on visual support and resistance levels to guide their trading strategies, providing a clear and automatic way to track these critical levels on their charts.
Pivot Length BandsPivot Length Bands Indicator
Description:
The Pivot Length Bands indicator is designed to visualize price volatility based on pivot points and ATR-adjusted pivot points. I. These bands can help traders identify potential support and resistance levels and assess the current volatility of the market.
Inputs:
Swing Length: The length of the swing used to calculate the pivot points and average true range.
Pivot Length Left Hand Side: The number of candles to the left of the current pivot point to consider when calculating the pivot high and low.
Pivot Length Right Hand Side: The number of candles to the right of the current pivot point to consider when calculating the pivot high and low.
Usage:
Traders can use the bands as potential levels for placing stop-loss orders or profit targets.
The width of the bands adjusts dynamically based on the current volatility of the market.
Note:
This indicator is best used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and should not be relied upon as a standalone trading signal.

Pivot Average [Misu]█ This Indicator is based on Pivot Points.
It aggregates closed Pivot Points to determine a " Pivot Average " line.
Pivot Points here refer to highs and lows.
█ Usages:
Pivot Average can be used as resistance or breakout area.
It is also very usefull to find battle zones.
It can also be used as a trend indicator: when the price is below, trend is down, when price is above, trend is up.
Mixed with momentum/volatility indicator it is very powerfull.
█ Parameters:
Deviation: Parameter used to calculate pivots.
Depth: Parameter used to calculate pivots.
Length: History Lenght used to determine Pivot Average.
Smoothing MA Lenght: MA lenght used to smooth Pivot Average.
Close Range %: Define price percentage change required to determine close pivots.
Color: Color of the Pivot Average.
Swing Reversal IndicatorSwing Reversal Indicator was meant to help identify pivot points on the chart which indicate momentum to buy and sell. The indicator uses 3 main questions to help plot the points:
Criteria
Did price take out yesterday's high or low?
Is today's range bigger than yesterday? (Indicates activity in price)
Is the close in the upper/lower portion of the candle? Thus, indicating momentum in that direction
This indicator was built to help me find pivot points for directional options trading however can be used for equities and forex swing trading and other strategies. Used in conjunction with a BB extreme can provide good setups.
Alerts are available for both the long and the short positions and the indicator will repaint as price moves.
The character Plotted can be changed in the settings
The size of the candle area can be changed as well if you want to tighten/loosen the trigger points based on the third question above.
Fibonacci Pivot RangeThis is based on Fibonacci Pivot Points. I forked "CristianD CD_PivotR" code for this. Thanks
"Fibonacci Pivot Points start just the same as Standard Pivot Points. From the base Pivot Point, Fibonacci multiples of the high-low differential are added to form resistance levels and subtracted to form support levels."
Pivot Point (P) = (High + Low + Close)/3
Support 1 (S1) = P - {.382 * (High - Low)}
Support 2 (S2) = P - {.618 * (High - Low)}
Resistance 1 (R1) = P + {.382 * (High - Low)}
Resistance 2 (R2) = P + {.618 * (High - Low)}
Adding more support or resistance levels should be really easy.
Gann Octave 8 Ver.2.0Gann Octave 8 Ver.2.0 - Complete Trading Guide
Overview
This indicator combines W.D. Gann's time-tested principles of market geometry with modern technical analysis. It identifies key market structures and projects precise support/resistance levels along with angular momentum lines to help traders identify high-probability trading opportunities.
________________________________________
Core Concepts
1. Gann's Octave Division (The Rule of 8)
W.D. Gann discovered that markets move in harmonic divisions based on the number 8. This indicator divides any swing movement into 8 equal parts (octaves):
• 0% - Swing extreme (High for bearish, Low for bullish)
• 12.5% - First octave
• 25% - Quarter level
• 37.5% - Three-eighths level
• 50% - Midpoint (most critical level)
• 62.5% - Five-eighths level
• 75% - Three-quarter level
• 87.5% - Seventh octave
• 100% - Swing extreme (opposite end)
Why 8? Gann believed natural market cycles follow mathematical harmonics. The octave division provides precise entry and exit points that frequently act as support/resistance zones.
2. Gann Angles (Price-Time Relationship)
Gann angles represent the relationship between price movement and time. Each angle shows different momentum levels:
• 1x1 (Black) - 45° angle, perfect balance between price and time. Most important Gann angle. Represents the natural trend line.
• 2x1 (Red) - Steeper angle, 2 units of price per 1 unit of time. Shows strong momentum.
• 1x2 (Red) - Flatter angle, 1 unit of price per 2 units of time. Shows weak momentum.
• 4x1 & 1x4 (Blue) - Even more extreme angles indicating very strong or very weak trends.
• 8x1 & 1x8 (Orange) - Most extreme angles, parabolic moves or complete consolidation.
Key Principle: When price is above the 1x1 angle = bullish. Below 1x1 = bearish. When price crosses from one angle to another, it signals a change in momentum.
________________________________________
How the Indicator Works
Structure Detection
The indicator automatically identifies market swings using pivot points:
1. Bullish Structure (Green): Detected when price makes a higher high
o Octave levels calculated from swing low (0%) to swing high (100%)
o Gann angles project upward from the swing low
2. Bearish Structure (Red): Detected when price makes a lower low
o Octave levels calculated from swing high (0%) to swing low (100%)
o Gann angles project downward from the swing high
Dynamic Updates
• Swing Tracker ON: Levels update continuously as the swing evolves
• Swing Tracker OFF: Levels lock at the initial swing detection (cleaner charts)
Historical Structures
The indicator maintains previous swing structures based on "Number of Swings to Show":
• Set to 1: Only current structure (cleanest)
• Set to 2-3: Current + recent history (recommended for context)
• Set to 4+: Multiple historical structures (may overlap but shows pattern)

________________________________________
Advanced Trading Techniques
1. The 50% Rule (Most Powerful)
The 50% octave level is the most critical in Gann theory:
• In Uptrend: Price should not break below 50% retracement. If it holds = trend intact, go long.
• In Downtrend: Price should not break above 50% retracement. If it holds = trend intact, go short.
• Reversal: Breaking and closing beyond 50% often signals trend reversal.
2. Gann Angle Confluence
When multiple Gann angles converge with octave levels = HIGH probability zone:
• Look for price to bounce or reverse at these zones
• Example: 1x2 angle meets 50% level = strong support/resistance
• These zones often become pivot points
3. Multiple Timeframe Analysis
• Use higher timeframe (daily) for major structure
• Use lower timeframe (5min, 15min) for precise entries
• Take trades when both timeframes align
4. Swing Failure Pattern
• Price breaks a key level (e.g., 50%) but quickly reverses back
• This "false breakout" often leads to strong move in opposite direction
• Wait for signal in the reversal direction

Adaptive Trend Breaks Adaptive Trend Breaks
## WHAT IT DOES
This script is a modified and enhanced version of "Trendline Breakouts With Targets" concept by ChartPrime.
Adaptive Trend Breaks (ATB) is a trendline breakout system optimized for scalping liquid futures contracts. The indicator automatically draws dynamic support and resistance trendlines based on pivot points, then generates trade signals when price breaks through these levels with confirmation filters. It includes automated target and stop-loss placement with real-time P&L tracking in dollars.
## HOW IT WORKS
**Trendline Detection Method:**
The indicator uses pivot high/low detection to identify significant price turning points. When a new pivot forms, it calculates the slope between consecutive pivots to draw dynamic trendlines. These lines extend forward based on the established trend angle, creating actionable support and resistance zones.
**Band System:**
Around each trendline, the script creates a "band" using a volatility-adjusted calculation: `ATR(14) * 0.2 * bandwidth multiplier / 2`. This adaptive band accounts for current market conditions - wider during volatile periods, tighter during quiet markets.
**Breakout Logic:**
A breakout signal triggers when:
1. Price closes beyond the trendline + band zone
2. Volume exceeds the 20-period moving average by your set multiplier (default 1.2x)
3. Price is within Regular Trading Hours (9:30-16:00 EST) if session filter enabled
4. Current ATR meets minimum volatility threshold (prevents trading dead markets)
**Target & Stop Calculation:**
Upon breakout confirmation:
- **Entry**: Trendline breach point
- **Target**: Entry ± (bandwidth × target multiplier) - default 8x for quick scalps
- **Stop**: Entry ± (bandwidth × stop multiplier) - default 8x for 1:1 risk/reward
- Multipliers adjust automatically to market volatility through the ATR-based band
**P&L Conversion:**
The script converts point movements to dollars using:
```
Dollar P&L = (Price Points × Contract Point Value × Quantity)
```
For example, a 10-point NQ move with 2 contracts = 10 × $20 × 2 = $400
## HOW TO USE IT
**Setup:**
1. Select your instrument (NQ/ES/YM/RTY) - point values auto-configure
2. Set contract quantity for accurate dollar P&L
3. Choose pivot period (lower = more signals but more noise, default 5 for scalping)
4. Adjust bandwidth multiplier if trendlines are too tight/loose (1-5 range)
**Filters Configuration:**
- **Volume Filter**: Requires breakout volume > moving average × multiplier. Increase multiplier (1.5-2.0) for higher conviction trades
- **Session Filter**: Enable to trade only RTH. Disable for 24-hour trading
- **ATR Filter**: Prevents signals during low volatility. Increase minimum % for more active markets only
**Risk Management:**
- Set target/stop multipliers based on your risk tolerance
- 8x bandwidth = approximately 1:1 risk/reward for most liquid futures
- Enable trailing stops for trend-following approach (moves stop to protect profits)
- Adjust line length to see targets further into the future
**Statistics Table:**
- Choose timeframe to analyze: all-time, today, this week, custom days
- Monitor win rate, profit factor, and net P&L in dollars
- Track long vs short performance separately
- See real-time unrealized P&L on active trades
**Reading Signals:**
- **Green triangle below bar** = Long breakout (resistance broken)
- **Red triangle above bar** = Short breakout (support broken)
- **White dashed line** = Entry price
- **Orange line** = Take profit target with dollar value
- **Red line** = Stop loss with dollar value
- **Green checkmark (✓)** = Target hit, winning trade
- **Red X (✗)** = Stop hit, losing trade
## WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
**Limitations to Understand:**
- Does not predict future trendline formations - it reacts to breakouts after they occur
- Historical trendlines disappear after breakout (not kept on chart for clarity)
- Requires sufficient volatility - may not signal in extremely quiet markets
- Volume filter requires exchange volume data (not available on all symbols)
- Statistics are indicator-based simulations, not actual trading results
- Does not account for slippage, commissions, or order fills
## BEST PRACTICES
**Recommended Settings by Market:**
- **NQ (Nasdaq)**: Default settings work well, consider volume multiplier 1.3-1.5
- **ES (S&P 500)**: Slightly slower, try period 7-8, volume 1.2
- **YM (Dow)**: Lower volatility, reduce bandwidth to 1.5-2
- **RTY (Russell)**: Higher volatility, increase bandwidth to 3-4
**Risk Management:**
- Never risk more than 2-3% of account per trade
- Use contract quantity calculator: Max Risk $ ÷ (Stop Distance × Point Value)
- Start with 1 contract while learning the system
- Backtest your specific timeframe and instrument before live trading
**Optimization Tips:**
- Increase pivot period (7-10) for fewer but higher-quality signals
- Raise volume multiplier (1.5-2.0) in choppy markets
- Lower target/stop multipliers (5-6x) for tighter profit taking
- Use trailing stops in strong trending conditions
- Disable session filter for overnight gaps and Asia session moves
## TECHNICAL DETAILS
**Key Calculations:**
- Pivot Detection: `ta.pivothigh(high, period, period/2)` and `ta.pivotlow(low, period, period/2)`
- Slope Calculation: `(newPivot - oldPivot) / (newTime - oldTime)`
- Adaptive Band: `min(ATR(14) * 0.2, close * 0.002) * multiplier / 2`
- Breakout Confirmation: Price crosses trendline + 10% of band threshold
**Data Requirements:**
- Minimum bars in view: 500 for proper pivot calculation
- Volume data required for volume filter accuracy
- Intraday timeframes recommended (1min - 15min) for scalping
- Works on any timeframe but optimized for fast execution
**Performance Metrics:**
All statistics calculate based on indicator signals:
- Tracks every signal as a trade from entry to TP/SL
- P&L in actual contract dollar values
- Win rate = (Winning trades / Total trades) × 100
- Profit factor = Gross profit / Gross loss
- Separates long/short performance for bias analysis
## IDEAL FOR
- Futures scalpers and day traders
- Traders who prefer visual trendline breakouts
- Those wanting automated TP/SL placement
- Traders tracking performance in dollar terms
- Multiple timeframe analysis (compare 1min vs 5min signals)
## NOT SUITABLE FOR
- Swing trading (targets too close)
- Stocks/forex without modifying point values
- Extremely low timeframes (<30 seconds) - too much noise
- Markets without volume data if using volume filter
- Illiquid contracts (signals may not execute at shown prices)
---
**Settings Summary:**
- Core: Period, bandwidth, extension, trendline style
- Filters: Volume, RTH session, ATR volatility
- Risk: R:R ratio, target/stop multipliers, trailing stop
- Display: Stats table position, size, colors
- Stats: Timeframe selection (all-time to custom days)

Live Market - Performance MonitorLive Market — Performance Monitor
Study material (no code) — step-by-step training guide for learners
________________________________________
1) What this tool is — short overview
This indicator is a live market performance monitor designed for learning. It scans price, volume and volatility, detects order blocks and trendline events, applies filters (volume & ATR), generates trade signals (BUY/SELL), creates simple TP/SL trade management, and renders a compact dashboard summarizing market state, risk and performance metrics.
Use it to learn how multi-factor signals are constructed, how Greeks-style sensitivity is replaced by volatility/ATR reasoning, and how a live dashboard helps monitor trade quality.
________________________________________
2) Quick start — how a learner uses it (step-by-step)
1. Add the indicator to a chart (any ticker / timeframe).
2. Open inputs and review the main groups: Order Block, Trendline, Signal Filters, Display.
3. Start with defaults (OB periods ≈ 7, ATR multiplier 0.5, volume threshold 1.2) and observe the dashboard on the last bar.
4. Walk the chart back in time (use the last-bar update behavior) and watch how signals, order blocks, trendlines, and the performance counters change.
5. Run the hands-on labs below to build intuition.
________________________________________
3) Main configurable inputs (what you can tweak)
• Order Block Relevant Periods (default ~7): number of consecutive candles used to define an order block.
• Min. Percent Move for Valid OB (threshold): minimum percent move required for a valid order block.
• Number of OB Channels: how many past order block lines to keep visible.
• Trendline Period (tl_period): pivot lookback for detecting highs/lows used to draw trendlines.
• Use Wicks for Trendlines: whether pivot uses wicks or body.
• Extension Bars: how far trendlines are projected forward.
• Use Volume Filter + Volume Threshold Multiplier (e.g., 1.2): requires volume to be greater than multiplier × average volume.
• Use ATR Filter + ATR Multiplier: require bar range > ATR × multiplier to filter noise.
• Show Targets / Table settings / Colors for visualization.
________________________________________
4) Core building blocks — what the script computes (plain language)
Price & trend:
• Spot / LTP: current close price.
• EMA 9 / 21 / 50: fast, medium, slow moving averages to define short/medium trend.
o trend_bullish: EMA9 > EMA21 > EMA50
o trend_bearish: EMA9 < EMA21 < EMA50
o trend_neutral: otherwise
Volatility & noise:
• ATR (14): average true range used for dynamic target and filter sizing.
• dynamic_zone = ATR × atr_multiplier: minimum bar range required for meaningful move.
• Annualized volatility: stdev of price changes × sqrt(252) × 100 — used to classify volatility (HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW).
Momentum & oscillators:
• RSI 14: overbought/oversold indicator (thresholds 70/30).
• MACD: EMA(12)-EMA(26) and a 9-period signal line; histogram used for momentum direction and strength.
• Momentum (ta.mom 10): raw momentum over 10 bars.
Mean reversion / band context:
• Bollinger Bands (20, 2σ): upper, mid, lower.
o price_position measures where price sits inside the band range as 0–100.
Volume metrics:
• avg_volume = SMA(volume, 20) and volume_spike = volume > avg_volume × volume_threshold
o volume_ratio = volume / avg_volume
Support & Resistance:
• support_level = lowest low over 20 bars
• resistance_level = highest high over 20 bars
• current_position = percent of price between support & resistance (0–100)
________________________________________
5) Order Block detection — concept & logic
What it tries to find: a bar (the base) followed by N candles in the opposite direction (a classical order block setup), with a minimum % move to qualify. The script records the high/low of the base candle, averages them, and plots those levels as OB channels.
How learners should think about it (conceptual):
1. An order block is a signature area where institutions (theory) left liquidity — often seen as a large bar followed by a sequence of directional candles.
2. This indicator uses a configurable number of subsequent candles to confirm that the pattern exists.
3. When found, it stores and displays the base candle’s high/low area so students can see how price later reacts to those zones.
Implementation note for learners: the tool keeps a limited history of OB lines (ob_channels). When new OBs exceed the count, the oldest lines are removed — good practice to avoid clutter.
________________________________________
6) Trendline detection — idea & interpretation
• The script finds pivot highs and lows using a symmetric lookback (tl_period and half that as right/left).
• It then computes a trendline slope from successive pivots and projects the line forward (extension_bars).
• Break detection: Resistance break = close crosses above the projected resistance line; Support break = close crosses below projected support.
Learning tip: trendlines here are computed from pivot points and time. Watch how changing tl_period (bigger = smoother, fewer pivots) alters the trendlines and break signals.
________________________________________
7) Signal generation & filters — step-by-step
1. Primary triggers:
o Bullish trigger: order block bullish OR resistance trendline break.
o Bearish trigger: bearish order block OR support trendline break.
2. Filters applied (both must pass unless disabled):
o Volume filter: volume must be > avg_volume × volume_threshold.
o ATR filter: bar range (high-low) must exceed ATR × atr_multiplier.
o Not in an existing trade: new trades only start if trade_active is false.
3. Trend confirmation:
o The primary trigger is only confirmed if trend is bullish/neutral for buys or bearish/neutral for sells (EMA alignment).
4. Result:
o When confirmed, a long or short trade is activated with TP/SL calculated from ATR multiples.
________________________________________
8) Trade management — what the tool does after a signal
• Entry management: the script marks a trade as trade_active and sets long_trade or short_trade flags.
• TP & SL rules:
o Long: TP = high + 2×ATR ; SL = low − 1×ATR
o Short: TP = low − 2×ATR ; SL = high + 1×ATR
• Monitoring & exit:
o A trade closes when price reaches TP or SL.
o When TP/SL hit, the indicator updates win_count and total_pnl using a very simple calculation (difference between TP/SL and previous close).
o Visual lines/labels are drawn for TP and updated as the trade runs.
Important learner notes:
• The script does not store a true entry price (it uses close in its P&L math), so PnL is an approximation — treat this as a learning proxy, not a position accounting system.
• There’s no sizing, slippage, or fee accounted — students must manually factor these when translating to real trades.
• This indicator is not a backtesting strategy; strategy.* functions would be needed for rigorous backtest results.
________________________________________
9) Signal strength & helper utilities
• Signal strength is a composite score (0–100) made up of four signals worth 25 points each:
1. RSI extreme (overbought/oversold) → 25
2. Volume spike → 25
3. MACD histogram magnitude increasing → 25
4. Trend existence (bull or bear) → 25
• Progress bars (text glyphs) are used to visually show RSI and signal strength on the table.
Learning point: composite scoring is a way to combine orthogonal signals — study how changing weights changes outcomes.

10) Dashboard — how to read each section (walkthrough)
The dashboard is split into sections; here's how to interpret them:
1. Market Overview
o LTP / Change%: immediate price & daily % change.
2. RSI & MACD
o RSI value plus progress bar (overbought 70 / oversold 30).
o MACD histogram sign indicates bullish/bearish momentum.
3. Volume Analysis
o Volume ratio (current / average) and whether there’s a spike.
4. Order Block Status
o Buy OB / Sell OB: the average base price of detected order blocks or “No Signal.”
5. Signal Status
o 🔼 BUY or 🔽 SELL if confirmed, or ⚪ WAIT.
o No-trade vs Active indicator summarizing market readiness.
6. Trend Analysis
o Trend direction (from EMAs), market sentiment score (composite), volatility level and band/position metrics.
7. Performance
o Win Rate = wins / signals (percentage)
o Total PnL = cumulative PnL (approximate)
o Bull / Bear Volume = accumulated volumes attributable to signals
8. Support & Resistance
o 20-bar highest/lowest — use as nearby reference points.
9. Risk & R:R
o Risk Level from ATR/price as a percent.
o R:R Ratio computed from TP/SL if a trade is active.
10. Signal Strength & Active Trade Status
• Numeric strength + progress bar and whether a trade is currently active with TP/SL display.
________________________________________
11) Alerts — what will notify you
The indicator includes pre-built alert triggers for:
• Bullish confirmed signal
• Bearish confirmed signal
• TP hit (long/short)
• SL hit (long/short)
• No-trade zone
• High signal strength (score > 75%)
Training use: enable alerts during a replay session to be notified when the indicator would have signalled.
________________________________________
12) Labs — hands-on exercises for learners (step-by-step)
Lab A — Order Block recognition
1. Pick a 15–30 minute timeframe on a liquid ticker.
2. Use default OB periods (7). Mark each time the dashboard shows a Buy/Sell OB.
3. Manually inspect the chart at the base candle and the following sequence — draw the OB zone by hand and watch later price reactions to it.
4. Repeat with OB periods 5 and 10; note stability vs noise.
Lab B — Trendline break confirmation
1. Increase trendline period (e.g., 20), watch trendlines form from pivots.
2. When a resistance break is flagged, compare with MACD & volume: was momentum aligned?
3. Note false breaks vs confirmed moves — change extension_bars to see projection effects.
Lab C — Filter sensitivity
1. Toggle Use Volume Filter off, and record the number and quality of signals in a 2-day window.
2. Re-enable volume filter and change threshold from 1.2 → 1.6; note how many low-quality signals are filtered out.
Lab D — Trade management simulation
1. For each signalled trade, record the time, close entry approximation, TP, SL, and eventual hit/miss.
2. Compute actual PnL if you had entered at the open of the next bar to compare with the script’s PnL math.
3. Tabulate win rate and average R:R.
Lab E — Performance review & improvement
1. Build a spreadsheet of signals over 30–90 periods with columns: Date, Signal type, Entry price (real), TP, SL, Exit, PnL, Notes.
2. Analyze which filters or indicators contributed most to winners vs losers and adjust weights.
________________________________________
13) Common pitfalls, assumptions & implementation notes (things to watch)
• P&L simplification: total_pnl uses close as a proxy entry price. Real entry/exit prices and slippage are not recorded — so PnL is approximate.
• No position sizing or money management: the script doesn’t compute position size from equity or risk percent.
• Signal confirmation logic: composite "signal_strength" is a simple 4×25 point scheme — explore different weights or additional signals.
• Order block detection nuance: the script defines the base candle and checks the subsequent sequence. Be sure to verify whether the intended candle direction (base being bullish vs bearish) aligns with academic/your trading definition — read the code carefully and test.
• Trendline slope over time: slope is computed using timestamps; small differences may make lines sensitive on very short timeframes — using bar_index differences is usually more stable.
• Not a true backtester: to evaluate performance statistically you must transform the logic into a strategy script that places hypothetical orders and records exact entry/exit prices.
________________________________________
14) Suggested improvements for advanced learners
• Record true entry price & timestamp for accurate PnL.
• Add position sizing: risk % per trade using SL distance and account size.
• Convert to strategy. (Pine Strategy)* to run formal backtests with equity curves, drawdowns, and metrics (Sharpe, Sortino).
• Log trades to an external spreadsheet (via alerts + webhook) for offline analysis.
• Add statistics: average win/loss, expectancy, max drawdown.
• Add additional filters: news time blackout, market session filters, multi-timeframe confirmation.
• Improve OB detection: combine wick/body, volume spike at base bar, and liquidity sweep detection.
________________________________________
15) Glossary — quick definitions
• ATR (Average True Range): measure of typical range; used to size targets and stops.
• EMA (Exponential Moving Average): trend smoothing giving more weight to recent prices.
• RSI (Relative Strength Index): momentum oscillator; >70 overbought, <30 oversold.
• MACD: momentum oscillator using difference of two EMAs.
• Bollinger Bands: volatility bands around SMA.
• Order Block: a base candle area with subsequent confirmation candles; a zone of institutional interest (learning model).
• Pivot High/Low: local turning point defined by candles on both sides.
• Signal Strength: combined score from multiple indicators.
• Win Rate: proportion of signals that hit TP vs total signals.
• R:R (Risk:Reward): ratio of potential reward (TP distance) to risk (entry to SL).
________________________________________
16) Limitations & assumptions (be explicit)
• This is an indicator for learning — not a trading robot or broker connection.
• No slippage, fees, commissions or tie-in to real orders are considered.
• The logic is heuristic (rule-of-thumb), not a guarantee of performance.
• Results are sensitive to timeframe, market liquidity, and parameter choices.
________________________________________
17) Practical classroom / study plan (4 sessions)
• Session 1 — Foundations: Understand EMAs, ATR, RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands. Run the indicator and watch how these numbers change on a single day.
• Session 2 — Zones & Filters: Study order blocks and trendlines. Test volume & ATR filters and note changes in false signals.
• Session 3 — Simulated trading: Manually track 20 signals, compute real PnL and compare to the dashboard.
• Session 4 — Improvement plan: Propose changes (e.g., better PnL accounting, alternative OB rule) and test their impact.
________________________________________
18) Quick reference checklist for each signal
1. Was an order block or trendline break detected? (primary trigger)
2. Did volume meet threshold? (filter)
3. Did ATR filter (bar size) show a real move? (filter)
4. Was trend aligned (EMA 9/21/50)? (confirmation)
5. Signal confirmed → mark entry approximation, TP, SL.
6. Monitor dashboard (Signal Strength, Volatility, No-trade zone, R:R).
7. After exit, log real entry/exit, compute actual PnL, update spreadsheet.

19) Educational caveat & final note
This tool is built for training and analysis: it helps you see how common technical building blocks combine into trade ideas, but it is not a trading recommendation. Use it to develop judgment, to test hypotheses, and to design robust systems with proper backtesting and risk control before risking capital.

RSI Divergence StrategyOverview
The RSI Divergence Strategy Indicator is a trading tool that uses the RSI and divergences created to generate high-probability buy and sell signals.
I have provided the best formula of numbers to use for BTC on a 30 minute timeframe.
You can change where on RSI you enter and exit both long or short trades. This way you can experiment on different tokens using different entry/exit points. Can use on multiple timeframes.
This strategy is designed to open and close long or short trades based on the levels you provide it. You can then check on the RSI where the best levels are for each token you want to trade and amend it as required to generate a profitable strategy.
How It Works
The RSI Divergence Strategy Indicator uses bear and bull divergences in conjuction with a level you have input on the RSI.
RSI for Overbought/Oversold:
• Input variables for entry and exit levels and when the entry levels combine with a bear or bull divergence signal, a trade is alerted.
RSI Divergence:
• Buy and sell signals are confirmed when the RSI creates bearish or bullish divergences and these divergences are in the same area as your levels you input for entry to short or long.
After 7 years of experience and testing I have calculated the exact numbers required and produced a formula to calculate the exact input variables for a 30 minute Bitcoin chart.
Key Features
1️⃣ Divergence Identification – Ensures trades are taken only when a bull or bear divergence has formed.
2️⃣ Overbought/Oversold Input Filtering – Set up your own variables on the RSI for different markets after identifying patterns on the RSI in relation to a bearish or bullish divergence.
3️⃣ Works on any chart – Suitable for all markets and timeframes once you input the correct variables for entry and exit levels.
How to Use
🟢 Basic Trading:
• Use on any timeframe.
• Enter trade only when alert has fired off. Close when it says to exit.
• Change entry and exit levels in the properties of the strategy indicator.
• Make entry and exit levels coincide with bearish or bullish divergences on the RSI.
Check the strategy tester to see backtesting so you know if the indicator is profitable or not for that market and timeframe as each crypto token is different and so is the timeframe you choose.
📢 Webhook Automation:
• Set up TradingView Alerts to auto-execute trades via Webhook-compatible platforms.
Key additions for divergence visualization:
Divergence Arrows:
Bullish divergence: Green label with white 'bull ' text
Bearish divergence: Red label with white 'bear' text
Positioned at the pivot point
Divergence Lines:
Connects consecutive RSI pivot points
Automatically drawn between consecutive pivot points
Enhanced RSI Coloring:
Overbought zone: Red
Oversold zone: Green
Neutral zone: Gray
The visualization helps you instantly spot:
Where divergences are forming on the RSI
The pattern of higher lows (bullish) or lower highs (bearish)
Contextual coloring of RSI relative to standard levels
All divergence markers appear at the correct historical pivot points, making it easy to visually confirm divergence patterns as they develop.
Strategy levels and background zones also shown to help visual look.
Why This Combination?
This indicator is just a simple RSI tool.
It is designed to filter out weak trades and only execute trades that have:
✅ RSI Divergence
✅ Overbought or Oversold Conditions
It does not calculate downtrends or bear markets so care is recommended taking long trades during these times.
Why It’s Worth Using?
📈 Open Source – Free to use and learn from.
📉 Long or Short Term Trading Style – Entry/Exit parameters options are designed for both short or long term trades allowing you to experiment until you find a profitable strategy for that market you want to trade.
📢 Seamless Webhook Automation – Execute trades automatically with TradingView alerts.
