Bearish Butterfly Harmonic Patterns [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically draws bearish butterfly harmonic patterns and price projections derived from the ranges that constitute the patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Support and Resistance
• Support refers to a price level where the demand for an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further.
• Resistance refers to a price level where the supply of an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from rising further.
Support and resistance levels are important because they can help traders identify where the price of an asset might pause or reverse its direction, offering potential entry and exit points. For example, a trader might look to buy an asset when it approaches a support level , with the expectation that the price will bounce back up. Alternatively, a trader might look to sell an asset when it approaches a resistance level , with the expectation that the price will drop back down.
It's important to note that support and resistance levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also break through these levels and continue moving in the same direction.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Muti-Part Upper and Lower Trends
• A multi-part return line uptrend begins with the formation of a new return line uptrend, or higher peak, and continues until a new downtrend, or lower peak, completes the trend.
• A multi-part downtrend begins with the formation of a new downtrend, or lower peak, and continues until a new return line uptrend, or higher peak, completes the trend.
• A multi-part uptrend begins with the formation of a new uptrend, or higher trough, and continues until a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, completes the trend.
• A multi-part return line downtrend begins with the formation of a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, and continues until a new uptrend, or higher trough, completes the trend.
Wave Cycles
A wave cycle is here defined as a complete two-part move between a swing high and a swing low, or a swing low and a swing high. The first swing high or swing low will set the course for the sequence of wave cycles that follow; for example a chart that begins with a swing low will form its first complete wave cycle upon the formation of the first complete swing high and vice versa.

Fibonacci Retracement and Extension Ratios
The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers, starting with 0 and 1. For example 0 + 1 = 1, 1 + 1 = 2, 1 + 2 = 3, and so on. Ultimately, we could go on forever but the first few numbers in the sequence are as follows: 0 , 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144.
The extension ratios are calculated by dividing each number in the sequence by the number preceding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 2/1 = 2, 3/2 = 1.5, 5/3 = 1.6666..., 8/5 = 1.6, 13/8 = 1.625, 21/13 = 1.6153..., 34/21 = 1.6190..., 55/34 = 1.6176..., 89/55 = 1.6181..., 144/89 = 1.6179..., and so on. The retracement ratios are calculated by inverting this process and dividing each number in the sequence by the number proceeding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 1/2 = 0.5, 2/3 = 0.666..., 3/5 = 0.6, 5/8 = 0.625, 8/13 = 0.6153..., 13/21 = 0.6190..., 21/34 = 0.6176..., 34/55 = 0.6181..., 55/89 = 0.6179..., 89/144 = 0.6180..., and so on.
1.618 is considered to be the 'golden ratio', found in many natural phenomena such as the growth of seashells and the branching of trees. Some now speculate the universe oscillates at a frequency of 0,618 Hz, which could help to explain such phenomena, but this theory has yet to be proven.
Traders and analysts use Fibonacci retracement and extension indicators, consisting of horizontal lines representing different Fibonacci ratios, for identifying potential levels of support and resistance. Fibonacci ranges are typically drawn from left to right, with retracement levels representing ratios inside of the current range and extension levels representing ratios extended outside of the current range. If the current wave cycle ends on a swing low, the Fibonacci range is drawn from peak to trough. If the current wave cycle ends on a swing high the Fibonacci range is drawn from trough to peak.
Harmonic Patterns
The concept of harmonic patterns in trading was first introduced by H.M. Gartley in his book "Profits in the Stock Market", published in 1935. Gartley observed that markets have a tendency to move in repetitive patterns, and he identified several specific patterns that he believed could be used to predict future price movements.
Since then, many other traders and analysts have built upon Gartley's work and developed their own variations of harmonic patterns. One such contributor is Larry Pesavento, who developed his own methods for measuring harmonic patterns using Fibonacci ratios. Pesavento has written several books on the subject of harmonic patterns and Fibonacci ratios in trading. Another notable contributor to harmonic patterns is Scott Carney, who developed his own approach to harmonic trading in the late 1990s and also popularised the use of Fibonacci ratios to measure harmonic patterns. Carney expanded on Gartley's work and also introduced several new harmonic patterns, such as the Shark pattern and the 5-0 pattern.
The bullish and bearish Gartley patterns are the oldest recognized harmonic patterns in trading and all the other harmonic patterns are ultimately modifications of the original Gartley patterns. Gartley patterns are fundamentally composed of 5 points, or 4 waves.
Bullish and Bearish Butterfly Patterns
• Bullish butterfly patterns are fundamentally composed of two peaks and three troughs, with the second peak being lower than the first peak. And the third trough being lower than both the second and first troughs, while the second trough is higher than the first.
• Bearish butterfly patterns are fundamentally composed of two troughs and three peaks, with the second trough being higher than the first trough. And the third peak being higher than both the second and first peaks, while the second peak is lower than the first.
The most commonly recognised ratio measurements used by traders today are as follows:
• Wave 1 of the pattern, generally referred to as XA, has no specific ratio requirements.
• Wave 2 of the pattern, generally referred to as AB, should retrace by 78.6% of the range set by wave 1.
• Wave 3 of the pattern, generally referred to as BC, should retrace by at least 38.2%, but no further than 88.6% of the range set by wave 2.
• Wave 4 of the pattern, generally referred to as CD, should extend to at least 161.8%, but no further than 261.8% of the range set by wave 3.
• The last measure, generally referred to as AD, is that of wave 4 as a ratio of the range set by wave 1, which should extend to 127%.
Measurement Tolerances
In general, tolerance in measurements refers to the allowable variation or deviation from a specific value or dimension. It is the range within which a particular measurement is considered to be acceptable or accurate. In this script I have applied this concept to the measurement of harmonic pattern ratios to increase to the frequency of pattern occurrences.
For example, the AB measurement of Gartley patterns is generally set at around 61.8%, but with such specificity in the measuring requirements the patterns are very rare. We can increase the frequency of pattern occurrences by setting a tolerance. A tolerance of 10% to both downside and upside, which is the default setting for all tolerances, means we would have a tolerable measurement range between 51.8-71.8%, thus increasing the frequency of occurrence.

All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.

Support and resistance levels are important because they can help traders identify where the price of an asset might pause or reverse its direction, offering potential entry and exit points. For example, a trader might look to buy an asset when it approaches a support level , with the expectation that the price will bounce back up. Alternatively, a trader might look to sell an asset when it approaches a resistance level , with the expectation that the price will drop back down.
It's important to note that support and resistance levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also break through these levels and continue moving in the same direction.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Muti-Part Upper and Lower Trends
• A multi-part return line uptrend begins with the formation of a new return line uptrend, or higher peak, and continues until a new downtrend, or lower peak, completes the trend.
• A multi-part downtrend begins with the formation of a new downtrend, or lower peak, and continues until a new return line uptrend, or higher peak, completes the trend.
• A multi-part uptrend begins with the formation of a new uptrend, or higher trough, and continues until a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, completes the trend.
• A multi-part return line downtrend begins with the formation of a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, and continues until a new uptrend, or higher trough, completes the trend.
Wave Cycles
A wave cycle is here defined as a complete two-part move between a swing high and a swing low, or a swing low and a swing high. The first swing high or swing low will set the course for the sequence of wave cycles that follow; for example a chart that begins with a swing low will form its first complete wave cycle upon the formation of the first complete swing high and vice versa.

Fibonacci Retracement and Extension Ratios
The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers, starting with 0 and 1. For example 0 + 1 = 1, 1 + 1 = 2, 1 + 2 = 3, and so on. Ultimately, we could go on forever but the first few numbers in the sequence are as follows: 0 , 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144.
The extension ratios are calculated by dividing each number in the sequence by the number preceding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 2/1 = 2, 3/2 = 1.5, 5/3 = 1.6666..., 8/5 = 1.6, 13/8 = 1.625, 21/13 = 1.6153..., 34/21 = 1.6190..., 55/34 = 1.6176..., 89/55 = 1.6181..., 144/89 = 1.6179..., and so on. The retracement ratios are calculated by inverting this process and dividing each number in the sequence by the number proceeding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 1/2 = 0.5, 2/3 = 0.666..., 3/5 = 0.6, 5/8 = 0.625, 8/13 = 0.6153..., 13/21 = 0.6190..., 21/34 = 0.6176..., 34/55 = 0.6181..., 55/89 = 0.6179..., 89/144 = 0.6180..., and so on.
1.618 is considered to be the 'golden ratio', found in many natural phenomena such as the growth of seashells and the branching of trees. Some now speculate the universe oscillates at a frequency of 0,618 Hz, which could help to explain such phenomena, but this theory has yet to be proven.
Traders and analysts use Fibonacci retracement and extension indicators, consisting of horizontal lines representing different Fibonacci ratios, for identifying potential levels of support and resistance. Fibonacci ranges are typically drawn from left to right, with retracement levels representing ratios inside of the current range and extension levels representing ratios extended outside of the current range. If the current wave cycle ends on a swing low, the Fibonacci range is drawn from peak to trough. If the current wave cycle ends on a swing high the Fibonacci range is drawn from trough to peak.
Harmonic Patterns
The concept of harmonic patterns in trading was first introduced by H.M. Gartley in his book "Profits in the Stock Market", published in 1935. Gartley observed that markets have a tendency to move in repetitive patterns, and he identified several specific patterns that he believed could be used to predict future price movements.
Since then, many other traders and analysts have built upon Gartley's work and developed their own variations of harmonic patterns. One such contributor is Larry Pesavento, who developed his own methods for measuring harmonic patterns using Fibonacci ratios. Pesavento has written several books on the subject of harmonic patterns and Fibonacci ratios in trading. Another notable contributor to harmonic patterns is Scott Carney, who developed his own approach to harmonic trading in the late 1990s and also popularised the use of Fibonacci ratios to measure harmonic patterns. Carney expanded on Gartley's work and also introduced several new harmonic patterns, such as the Shark pattern and the 5-0 pattern.
The bullish and bearish Gartley patterns are the oldest recognized harmonic patterns in trading and all the other harmonic patterns are ultimately modifications of the original Gartley patterns. Gartley patterns are fundamentally composed of 5 points, or 4 waves.
Bullish and Bearish Crab Patterns
• Bullish crab patterns are fundamentally composed of three troughs and two peaks, with the second peak being lower than the first peak. And the third trough being lower than both the second and first troughs, while the second trough is higher than the first.
• Bearish crab patterns are fundamentally composed of three peaks and two troughs, with the second trough being higher than the first trough. And the third peak being higher than both the second and first peaks, while the second peak is lower than the first.
The most commonly recognised ratio measurements used by traders today are as follows:
• Wave 1 of the pattern, generally referred to as XA, has no specific ratio requirements.
• Wave 2 of the pattern, generally referred to as AB, should retrace by at least 38.2%, but no further than 61.8% of the range set by wave 1.
• Wave 3 of the pattern, generally referred to as BC, should retrace by at least 38.2%, but no further than 88.6% of the range set by wave 2.
• Wave 4 of the pattern, generally referred to as CD, should extend to at least 261.8%, but no further than 361.8% of the range set by wave 3.
• The last measure, generally referred to as AD, is that of wave 4 as a ratio of the range set by wave 1, which should extend to 161.8%.
Measurement Tolerances
In general, tolerance in measurements refers to the allowable variation or deviation from a specific value or dimension. It is the range within which a particular measurement is considered to be acceptable or accurate. In this script I have applied this concept to the measurement of harmonic pattern ratios to increase to the frequency of pattern occurrences.
For example, the AB measurement of Gartley patterns is generally set at around 61.8%, but with such specificity in the measuring requirements the patterns are very rare. We can increase the frequency of pattern occurrences by setting a tolerance. A tolerance of 10% to both downside and upside, which is the default setting for all tolerances, means we would have a tolerable measurement range between 51.8-71.8%, thus increasing the frequency of occurrence.

All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.

This indicator automatically draws bearish bat harmonic patterns and price projections derived from the ranges that constitute the patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Support and Resistance
• Support refers to a price level where the demand for an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further.
• Resistance refers to a price level where the supply of an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from rising further.

• A multi-part uptrend begins with the formation of a new uptrend, or higher trough, and continues until a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, completes the trend.
• A multi-part return line downtrend begins with the formation of a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, and continues until a new uptrend, or higher trough, completes the trend.
Wave Cycles
A wave cycle is here defined as a complete two-part move between a swing high and a swing low, or a swing low and a swing high. The first swing high or swing low will set the course for the sequence of wave cycles that follow; for example a chart that begins with a swing low will form its first complete wave cycle upon the formation of the first complete swing high and vice versa.

Fibonacci Retracement and Extension Ratios
The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers, starting with 0 and 1. For example 0 + 1 = 1, 1 + 1 = 2, 1 + 2 = 3, and so on. Ultimately, we could go on forever but the first few numbers in the sequence are as follows: 0 , 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144.
The extension ratios are calculated by dividing each number in the sequence by the number preceding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 2/1 = 2, 3/2 = 1.5, 5/3 = 1.6666..., 8/5 = 1.6, 13/8 = 1.625, 21/13 = 1.6153..., 34/21 = 1.6190..., 55/34 = 1.6176..., 89/55 = 1.6181..., 144/89 = 1.6179..., and so on. The retracement ratios are calculated by inverting this process and dividing each number in the sequence by the number proceeding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 1/2 = 0.5, 2/3 = 0.666..., 3/5 = 0.6, 5/8 = 0.625, 8/13 = 0.6153..., 13/21 = 0.6190..., 21/34 = 0.6176..., 34/55 = 0.6181..., 55/89 = 0.6179..., 89/144 = 0.6180..., and so on.
1.618 is considered to be the 'golden ratio', found in many natural phenomena such as the growth of seashells and the branching of trees. Some now speculate the universe oscillates at a frequency of 0,618 Hz, which could help to explain such phenomena, but this theory has yet to be proven.
Traders and analysts use Fibonacci retracement and extension indicators, consisting of horizontal lines representing different Fibonacci ratios, for identifying potential levels of support and resistance. Fibonacci ranges are typically drawn from left to right, with retracement levels representing ratios inside of the current range and extension levels representing ratios extended outside of the current range. If the current wave cycle ends on a swing low, the Fibonacci range is drawn from peak to trough. If the current wave cycle ends on a swing high the Fibonacci range is drawn from trough to peak.
Harmonic Patterns
The concept of harmonic patterns in trading was first introduced by H.M. Gartley in his book "Profits in the Stock Market", published in 1935. Gartley observed that markets have a tendency to move in repetitive patterns, and he identified several specific patterns that he believed could be used to predict future price movements. The bullish and bearish Gartley patterns are the oldest recognized harmonic patterns in trading and all the other harmonic patterns are modifications of the original Gartley patterns. Gartley patterns are fundamentally composed of 5 points, or 4 waves.
Since then, many other traders and analysts have built upon Gartley's work and developed their own variations of harmonic patterns. One such contributor is Larry Pesavento, who developed his own methods for measuring harmonic patterns using Fibonacci ratios. Pesavento has written several books on the subject of harmonic patterns and Fibonacci ratios in trading. Another notable contributor to harmonic patterns is Scott Carney, who developed his own approach to harmonic trading in the late 1990s and also popularised the use of Fibonacci ratios to measure harmonic patterns. Carney expanded on Gartley's work and also introduced several new harmonic patterns, such as the Shark pattern and the 5-0 pattern.
Bullish and Bearish Gartley Patterns
• Bullish Gartley patterns are fundamentally composed of three troughs and two peaks, with the second peak being lower than the first peak and the third trough being lower than the second but higher than the first.
• Bearish Gartley patterns are fundamentally composed of three peaks and two troughs, with the second trough being higher than the first trough and the third peak being higher than the second but lower than the first.
The most commonly recognised ratio measurements used by traders today are as follows:
• Wave 1 of the pattern, generally referred to as XA, has no specific ratio requirements.
• Wave 2 of the pattern, generally referred to as AB, should retrace to 61.8% of the range set by wave 1.
• Wave 3 of the pattern, generally referred to as BC, should retrace by at least 38.2%, but no further than 88.6% of the range set by wave 2.
• Wave 4 of the pattern, generally referred to as CD, should extend to at least 127.2%, but no further than 161.8% of the range set by wave 3.
• The last measure, generally referred to as AD, is that of wave 4 as a ratio of the range set by wave 1, which should retrace to 78.6%.
Measurement Tolerances
In general, tolerance in measurements refers to the allowable variation or deviation from a specific value or dimension. It is the range within which a particular measurement is considered to be acceptable or accurate. In this script I have introduced the concept of measurement tolerances to harmonic pattern identification.
For example, the AB measurement of Gartley patterns is generally set at around 61.8%, but with such specificity in the measuring requirements the patterns are very rare. We can increase the frequency of pattern occurrences by setting a tolerance. A tolerance of 10% to both downside and upside, for example, means we would have a tolerable measurement range between 51.8-71.8%, thus increasing the frequency of occurrence.

All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.
Bullish Gartley Harmonic Patterns [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically draws bullish Gartley harmonic patterns and price projections derived from the ranges that constitute the patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Support and Resistance
• Support refers to a price level where the demand for an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further.
• Resistance refers to a price level where the supply of an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from rising further.
Support and resistance levels are important because they can help traders identify where the price of an asset might pause or reverse its direction, offering potential entry and exit points. For example, a trader might look to buy an asset when it approaches a support level , with the expectation that the price will bounce back up. Alternatively, a trader might look to sell an asset when it approaches a resistance level , with the expectation that the price will drop back down.
It's important to note that support and resistance levels are not always relevant, and the price of an asset can also break through these levels and continue moving in the same direction.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Muti-Part Upper and Lower Trends
• A multi-part return line uptrend begins with the formation of a new return line uptrend, or higher peak, and continues until a new downtrend, or lower peak, completes the trend.
• A multi-part downtrend begins with the formation of a new downtrend, or lower peak, and continues until a new return line uptrend, or higher peak, completes the trend.
• A multi-part uptrend begins with the formation of a new uptrend, or higher trough, and continues until a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, completes the trend.
• A multi-part return line downtrend begins with the formation of a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, and continues until a new uptrend, or higher trough, completes the trend.
Wave Cycles
A wave cycle is here defined as a complete two-part move between a swing high and a swing low, or a swing low and a swing high. The first swing high or swing low will set the course for the sequence of wave cycles that follow; for example a chart that begins with a swing low will form its first complete wave cycle upon the formation of the first complete swing high and vice versa.

For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 2/1 = 2, 3/2 = 1.5, 5/3 = 1.6666..., 8/5 = 1.6, 13/8 = 1.625, 21/13 = 1.6153..., 34/21 = 1.6190..., 55/34 = 1.6176..., 89/55 = 1.6181..., 144/89 = 1.6179..., and so on. The retracement ratios are calculated by inverting this process and dividing each number in the sequence by the number proceeding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 1/2 = 0.5, 2/3 = 0.666..., 3/5 = 0.6, 5/8 = 0.625, 8/13 = 0.6153..., 13/21 = 0.6190..., 21/34 = 0.6176..., 34/55 = 0.6181..., 55/89 = 0.6179..., 89/144 = 0.6180..., and so on.

NET BSP NET BSP derived from Buying & Selling Pressure which is a volatility indicator that monitors average metrics of green and red candles separately.
We could navigate more confidently through market with projected market balance.
BSP allowed us to track and analyze the ongoing performance of bullish and bearish impulsive waves and their corrections.
Due to unintuitive way of measuring decline with SP going up, I decided to remake it into more intuitive version with better precision.
When we encounter the fall it's better to have declining values of tool to be able to cover it visually with ease.
One of the solutions was to create a sense of balance of Buying Pressure against Selling Pressure.
Since we are oriented by growth, it'd be more logical to summarize the market balance with BP - SP
Comparison:
When Buying and Selling Pressure are equal, NET BSP would be at 0.
NETBSP > 0 and NETBSP > NETBSP = 🟢
NETBSP > 0 and NETBSP < NETBSP = 🟡
NETBSP < 0 and NETBSP < NETBSP = 🔴
NETBSP < 0 and NETBSP > NETBSP = 🟡
Hence, we get visualized stages of uptrends and downtrends which allows to evaluate chances and estimations of upcoming counter-waves.
Also, it is worth to note that output clearly shows how one wave is derived from another in terms of sizing.
Feel free to adjust NET BSP arguments to adapt sensitivity to the timeframe you're working on.
Ichi-Price WaveWelcome to the Ichi-Price Wave. This indicator is designed for day trading options contracts for any ticker, using a number of indicators — Ichimoku Cloud, Volume-Weighted Average Price, Stochastic Relative Strength Index, Exponential Moving Average (13/48) — and calculating how they interact with each other to provide entry and exit signals for both Calls and Puts on normal days. ****Read the Important Information section before opening any positions based on this indicator. (Also *NFA)
The general concept is that you, the trader, are a Surfer 🏄🏾 who rides the best waves in deep water until it gets dangerous.
Emoji storyline: The 🏄🏾 emoji (Call or Put, depending on the color of its Green or Red label, respectively) indicates an upcoming *potential* entry that, for a number of reasons, may be disregarded. (See: Important Information section below). And just as there are no certainties in the stock market itself, the tiered exit signals are ranked by low 🐬, medium 🦈 and high risk 🦑 tolerance. (In other words, it's relatively safe to surf with dolphins around, but there's the off chance they even strike trainers and become aggressive. It's more dangerous to swim with sharks. And on the unlikely, rare occasion you see a literal, giant, mythical, ship destroying Kraken 😬 ... you definitely need to get out of the water.
Surfing for as long as possible reaps the greatest rewards — but risk/reward are to be considered for entries and exits. Exiting every time you see a 🐬 (E1) should secure profits nearly 100% of the time, but they'll be very minimal. Whereas surfing til you reach a Kraken 🦑 (which will not even appear on most Price Wave cycles) would reap the most rewards. (NFA: I recommend considering sharks 🦈 as an exit point for the majority of positions, and perhaps only keeping a few runners open with the hopes of finding that shiny Kraken. (On the non-Emoji chart, the low, medium and high risk exits are named E1, E2 and E3, respectively. Got to the indicator's Settings > Inputs > then toggle EMOJIs ON/OFF)
Boring stuff: The entry 🏄🏾 signals are triggered by multiple conditions that must be all true. For Call entries, one of the necessary conditions is that the RSI's K must be maximum 10 (this can be changed in default). This, along with another condition where current price must be below the VWAP Lower Bound 1, serves as a great reference point showing the stock price is currently uncomfortable where it is and may likely soon snap back closer to the VWAP, perhaps even to the other side due to a pendulum effect.
Important information
Relying on those two factors for setting entry and exit points are great for normal days. (Normal, as in the ticker price bounces within a channel (e.g., ≤3% + or -) that's trending slightly bullish or bearish depending on greater market trend). But there are abnormal days where news catalysts (e.g., CPI data, CEO scandals, unexpected company data release, etc.) trigger FOMO and FUD, ultimately rendering the logic behind most indicators non applicable (e.g., RSI's "buy when oversold"). On the chart, this indicator accounts for this with two measures:
One, you should only "Surf" in the water. That is, there are two bands — Shallow and Deep Water. Any "Surf" emojis where price action is outside of the water should be ignored**. Two, there are additional EMOJIs that show you "Bearish trend" ⛈ and "Bullish trend ☀️. (Story time again: You obviously shouldn't surf in thunder and lightning. But also, surfing in the blistering sun with no clouds in the sky during a heatwave is also dangerous to your health.)
You can use these two measures to disregard the "surfers" suggesting you join them in opening a position in the suggested direction. And surfers followed by Cloud EMOJIs — 🌤️ (Put) or 🌧️ (Call) — can be used as "perfect entry" points. (The clouds represent weather being less extreme and better for surfing).
(**While these should mostly be ignored, these have not been muted because there is the possibility of a very strong turn around if you happen to catch the last one (which is not ideal for risk-averse traders). Use other indicators, such as the MACD and trend lines, to find potential bottoms (or tops) as price action plunges (or soars) due to abnormal news circumstances.)
Entry and exit buffers
At the beginning of each day, most indicators usually are not immediately calibrated correctly due to premarket trading and open market (at least to the degree that the day's sentiment can be best read from them due to the amount of volatility). What I recommend when using this indicator is disregarding signals during the first 15 minutes (or possibly 30 minutes) of market open to get the best results. And also, considering this indicator is meant for day trading (i.e., not holding positions overnight), disregarding ENTRY signals for the last 45 minutes of the trading day could give yourself enough buffer on the back end for exiting comfortably.
RSI entry
Preparing for an entry when you see a surfer is recommended, but actually opening the position when you see a 🌤️ (Put) or 🌧️ (Call) would yield best results and avoid misfires — particularly when those two cloud EMOJIs are signaled when the RSI is overbought and K is at least 95 (Puts), or oversold and K at maximum 5 (Calls). (Story time logic: The cloud eclipsing the Sun means it's cooling off and better for surfing. And the rain cloud no longer having lightning means the "bearish" storm is possibly soon over).
Delta and the Greeks
You should experiment yourself, but keep in mind that this is for capitalizing off of a day's minor price swings (≤3% + or -). Entering a same day expiry contract that's deep OTM is not going to work with this indicator (even if you enter at a surfer 🏄🏾 and exit at a Kraken 🦑) because the price wave from one end to the other won't be enough to compensate for the other Greeks working against you. Use another indicator (or insider knowledge ... Just kidding, that's illegal, don't do that) if you want to buy those kind of contracts.
I personally purchase contracts w/ minimum 80% Implied Volatility and somewhere between 20-40 Delta. Having a nice range for yourself with these factors, depending also on the size of your own portfolio and the risk tolerance you have, will determine how much you're able to capitalize off successful entry and exits.
Tips
• I set stop losses 5-10% depending on the ticker. (e.g., $TSLA's volatility may require SL closer to 10% whereas using it on $SPY, a 5% could suffice). This is in addition to ignoring entry signals that don't meet the aforementioned two requirements (i.e., it's risky to Surf in shallow water, and you shouldn't try to Surf at all outside of the water, ref. Band 2 and outside of Band 2). Remember, this is the stock market — not the casino. We rely on strategy and risk management — not hope.
• It's recommended you use time intervals ≤ 5 min. (I use 1 minute and 5 min)
• Liquidity . Using these signals on a ticker with low liquidity (particularly if you enter on the Ask side), can reduce your profits to 0% or even to a loss even if you have a perfect entry and exit. I always point to SPY as the optimal bid-ask spread, but keep that in mind.
What's with the name "Ichi-Price Wave"?
The "Ichi" gives credit to Japanese journalist Goichi Hosoda, whose indicator I used in conjunction with the 13/48 Exponential Moving Averages to create some of the exit signal conditions (e.g., E2🦈). That E2 condition is: Signal the first time the price intersects the Ichimoku conversion line *after* it has entered the VWAP UB/LB channel on one end and has exited on the opposite end). And it's named "Price Wave" because it's a literal price wave, which is where the fun surf narrative comes in. Also, "Price" doubles as me naming it after myself (in a less pretentious way). It's actually convenient that my last name is literally Price. Almost as if I was born for this. Nonetheless, this indicator is far more accurate in spotting directional changes than the free 13/48 cross, which oddly enough, influencers are charging for access. It's free, but the code is protected, for now at least.
Try it out on any ticker and look at how accurately it catches the tops and bottoms (keeping in mind to ignore misfires according to the two measures and also setting ~5-10% stop losses). And of course, use this in conjunction with other indicators. Ignoring all of my other emojis and simply setting surfer 🏄🏾 alerts could serve as additional confirmations for your personal strategy. Or you could simply enter at a surfer 🏄🏾 and exit when it reaches VWAP (or at least increase your Stop Loss to sell at break even if it doesn't reach). That strategy is the most conservative and would secure consistent gains). AND AGAIN, use your stop losses. Either it makes a move or it doesn't. Simply re-enter at a better point if necessary.
DB KCBB%D WavesDB KCBB%D Waves
What does the indicator do?
The indicator plots the percent difference between the low and high prices against a combined Kelpler Channel Bollinger Bands for the current timeframe. The low percent difference and the high percent difference each have their own waves plotted. A mirror mode default allows both waves to be visualized in a mirrored plot that clearly shows when outer bands are present and when they swap. Each percent difference band is displayed with a 1 bar lookback to visualize local tops/bottoms.
The overall trend is displayed using two sets of green/red colors on the percent difference waves so that each wave is recognizable, but the overall price trend is visible. A fast 3 SMA is taken of each percent difference wave to obtain the overall trend and then averaged together. The trend is then calculated based on direction from the previous bar period.
How should this indicator be used?
By default, the indicator will display in a mirror mode which will display both the low and high percent change waves mirrored to allow for the most pattern recognition possible. You will notice the percent difference waves swap from inner to outer, showing the overall market direction for that timeframe. When each percent difference wave interacts with the zero line, it indicates either buys or sells opportunities depending on which band is on the inside. When the inner wave crosses zero, special attention should be paid to the outer wave to know if it's a significant move. Likewise, when the outer wave peaks, it can indicate buy or sell opportunities depending on which wave is on the outside.
A zero line and other lines are displayed from the highest of the high percent difference wave over a long period of time. The lines can measure movement and possible oversold/overbought locations or large volatility. You can also use the lines for crossing points for either wave as alerts to know when to buy or sell zones are happening.
When individual percent difference waves are designed to be reviewed without mirroring, the mirror checkbox can be unchecked in the settings. Doing so will display both the high and low percent difference waves separately. Using this display, you can more cleanly review how each wave interacts with various line levels.
For those who desire to only have half of the mirror or one set of waves inverted against each other, check the "mirrored" and the "mirrored flipped" checkboxes in the settings. Doing so will display the top half of the mirror indicator, which is the low percent difference wave with the high percent difference wave inverted.
The indicator will also change the background color of its own pane to indicate possible buy/sell periods (work in progress).
Does the indicator include any alerts?
Yes, they are a work in progress but starting out with this release, we have:
NOTE: This is an initial release version of this indicator. Please do not use these alerts with bots yet, as they will repaint in real-time.
NOTE: A later release may happen that will delay firing the events until 1/2 of the current bar time has passed.
NOTE: As with any indicator watch your upper timeframe waves first before zooming into lower.

All TimeFrame OscillatorsI have always fighted to understand the market direction because it looks different on different timeframes.
I wanted an indicator where I can see all the different timeframes at once.
This indicator shows already existing oscillators but not only in the current chart's timeframe, but all the most important higer timeframes at once.
I have started with the stoch, then added as many oscillators as I could.
Experimenting with this I have saw that confluence of 4H 1D and 1W Stoch can be very interesting and can highlight higher timeframe take profit areas and sometimes major tops/bottoms.
Also bounces can be interesting when a lower timeframe stoch is bounced or rejected from a higher one.
Oscillators:
Stoch - Stochastic Oscillator
SMI - Stochastic Momentum Index
Rsi - Relative Strength Index

WaveTrend - Vumanchu alias Market Cypher Wave Trend line
CCI - Commodity Channel Index

Line Type
Smooth: lines are smoothed, but the actualy not closed values are not shown
Step: Step lines, the actually open timeframes are calculated as they closed at the current values
Plot Oscillator or it's Slope:
its possible to not plot the oscillator but it's slope
Print dots when:
Cross Up/Down oversold/overbougt level - best for most oscillators. for example when Stoch crosses above 20 or below 80
Cross os/ob and the one higher TF is about to cross - when it's crosses beolw 80 and the higher timeframe oscillator is still above ans sloping down
Cross above/below middle line - for example on RSI being above or below 50 can be interesting
Print triangles when:
All Slope Match - all visible timeframe lines are pointing up or down at the same time
All above/belove middle line - all visible lines are above or belove the middle line
All above/belove middle line and slope match - like the previous one and the slope direction is the same
All above/below oversold/overbougt - all lines are above or below os/ ob. this is the default. it can be a very important confluence
Lower TF in order - 5, 15, 30, 60 minute timeframes are in order.
Higher TF in order - 4H 1D 1W in order (like 4H above 1D abd 1D above 1W). can be interesting at RSI
4H-1D in order - 4H 1D in order .
Print triangles
Print all triangles - print all triangles when the condition is met
Print only first triangles - only show when the condition starts to met
Print only last triangles - small triangles when the condition met first, large when last. tis is the default.
Timeframes to show:
You can turn on/off different timeframs to show or not from the list below:
1m 5m 15m 30m 1H 4H D 5D W M
This is for experimenting/ understanding the market direction on multiple timeframes at once.
Don't take it's signals (and any other indicator's) as exact trade signals. use it as confirmation instead.
Any comments, insights, ideas are welcome.
Whale Momentum Wave Oscillator//Credits: @Noldo - Whale Trading System @rumpypumpydumpy - ALMA Ribbons @QuantNomad - Elastic Volume Weighted Moving Average
Composite Indicator, created by taking QuantNomad's EVWMA and using that as input for a variation of rumpypumpydumpy's ALMA Ribbons. Each Ribbon had its sub ribbons summed up and then averaged. The averages were then fed through the ta.rsi and the ta.mom functions giving us our momentum waves. Signal line created from the close value being fed through the ta. ema into the ta.rsi then ta.wma then ta.mom function. Why those in that order? No reason in particular just what I stumbled upon after many variations. I then overlayed Noldo's Whale Trading System to view what "whales" were doing, giving us a good view of when capital is flowing into and out the asset which often contradicts the momentum waves prior to trend changes. Provides a nice visual for how capital is moving along with momentum. Can see when smart money is buying up a big dip or of they seem to still be waiting on the sidelines.

Features:
EMA Ribbons (Lengths: 5, 11, 15, 18, 21, 25, 29, 33)
Symbols ("Be careful" and "attention required" signals)
EMA Ribbons
The EMA RIbbons are a set of exponential moving averages. Blue and white ribbons = uptrend, gray ribbons = downtrend. The ribbons can act as support in uptrends and as resistance in downtrends.
Lengths and source of the ribbons are customizable.
Symbols
Green Dots: The green dot is a bullish symbol that appears whenever the EMA 11 crosses over EMA 33.
Red Cross: The red cross is a bearish symbol that appears whenever the EMA 5 crosses under EMA 11.
Blue Triangle: The blue triangle marks a possible trend reversal that appears whenever the EMA 5 crosses over EMA 25 while EMA 29 is below EMA 33.
Red Diamond: The red diamond is a bearish symbol that marks a potential local top whenever a bearish wavecross occurs (fast wave crosses under slow wave).
Yellow X: The yellow X is a warning signal that appears whenever a bearish wavecross occurs while the slow wave of the wavetrend is below -40 and the moneyflow is in the red (below zero).
Blood Diamond: The blood diamond is a bearish symbol that highlights whenever the red diamond and the red cross appear on the same candle.
Usage
Treat the symbols as signs that your attention might be required and don't trade based on them.
GBTT Range Wave IndicatorOverview:
This script is a type of mean reversion indicator, it uses a short period EMA, the EMA5 to be exact, as its basis for a mean. From here, we run a modified version of ATR over a longer period of time to find an average range value for price movement. Finally, we calculate the cloud/band/wave by multiplying this range value by our deviation values to produce areas where the price could be considered too far from the mean (similar to an oversold or overbought scenario).
Additionally, we wrote this script with a goal to reduce or eliminate repainting. In the code, we have utilized OPEN values (instead of CLOSE) and previous candle values (not the current candle) to build all the data for the algorithm here to avoid the waves constantly moving and changing their values on real time candles. That said, this is NOT a guarantee that it will never repaint.
What you see:
Visually, the waves are always on the chart. Optionally, we provide a custom standard deviation channel based off the EMA5 (represented with a blue shading) and/or a simple ema5/21 crossover cloud. These can be used for additional confluence if desired, but are not necessary for the core function of the indicator which would be the upper and lower wave.
Intended use:
To provide educational content about the short term movement of an asset. Designed to be run on any time frame.
Disclaimer:
NOT intended to be a sole source of Technical Analysis or anything more than an educational tool!
Cipher & DivergenceFor a long time I've been using complicated script with too much informations in it.
In this one I try to have just the bare minimum information to be able to analyse and find a potential reversal zone.
It is inspired from different wave trend / cipher script but has been tuned after months of backtest.
Extending the usage of the wave trend oscillator, which can be used with overbuy & oversell zone it might be better to wait for a confirmation of the movement. This confirmation can be identified by a pull back of the wave trend & price.
We can even confort ourself by waiting for reversal indicators.
Reversal may occurs after a divergence, wait for it, a cross of zero line followed by a PB to find your entry.
You can setup alert on bear / bull divergence but also when the wave trend cross the zero line to never miss a potential trade.
Huge thanks to LazyBear for his wave trend
And thanks vumanchu for his huge cipher script which was very useful for divergence finder
OJLJ Elliott Waves detector (Free)This script is made to identify Elliot Waves by setting a zigzag line as principal source, it identifies patterns with the most common rules, in the chart you will see a number in each wave detected, a wave could have the characteristics to be two different waves so it will be plotted the options that could be, To identify which one is most trustable I suggest to use the Fibonacci levels options as an additional note this is a free update to my existing script.
Features:
+ All waves ? (Option to show just the 5 Wave patterns recognition)
+ Draw zigzag line (Option to show the zigzag line)
+ Supports Multiple instruments, from FOREX to Stocks
+ It works on all the timeframes
+ Show Fib levels (Option to show the Fibonacci levels)
+ Fibonacci levels fit test (Green crosses mark were should a Bull wave be to fit with a Fibonacci Level While the purple crosses show were should the wave fit to be a bear trend, the more closer with the point of the wave the most trustable Example, a 5 Wave Bull could also be a 2 Bear Wave, if the green cross is closer to the orange point of the wave then is a 5 Wave Bull, if the purple cross is closer to the orange point)
+ A background color also show when a 5 pattern is identified
+ The way to plot the zigzag can be changed with 3 Input options
Characteristics to add in future updates (Please if you like it you can support me with coins):
+ Detect more than 1 cycle at the same time
+ Use a volume indicator to identify how many volume was traded in each wave
+ Implement the use of the EWO ( Elliot Wave Oscillator)
+ Improve the display
+ Identify ABC patterns
+ Add triangles and Zigzag formations
Ichimoku EMA WaveThis script combines a customizable Ichimoku Cloud/ EMA combination to provide a quick trend visualisation.
For example, long entries can be found when the green EMA wave rises above the Ichimoku cloud.
Combine it with some oscillators (like MACD) for good results.
Also, experimenting with a different "wavelength" (default 50) and/or EMA length (default10) for different securities is a good idea.
Script is free to use and to modify at ones liking.
Frontrow SniperThe Sniper indicator combines various indicators together in an effort to predict accurate money making signals. The indicator lets you know when to long or short. So that your trades are spot on and there is no more need for FOMO. The Sniper indicator is the secret weapon you need to give you an edge to win in this market.
Frontrow Sniper is an all-in-one oscillator, allowing for more quality indications on your chart. It combines five well known algorithms (VWAP, MFI, RSI, Stochastic RSI, Wave Trend) which have all been fine-tuned for optimal results. When all of these indicators converge, sniper projects a green dot buy signal. The green dot is characterized by extreme sell momentum. In other words, it tells you to long when price is at the bottom. Making it extremely powerful.
the indicator is a wavetrend indicator
Whenever the 2 lines converge on each other a red sell signal or green buy singal will be created.
When the market is really overbought/oversold it will create a big buy or sell signal
AIMS Purple MagicThe Alligator is a Very Powerful Indicator
Some people think it's just 3 moving averages. But in reality, it is far more than that.
Read more about Alligator and Bill Williams
The Purple Magic Line has been derived from Bill Williams Alligator. Together the Alligator we call the AIMS Gator.
It is a smooth moving average based on the Chaos Red Line of the 5 times higher time frame.
Our Mantra: If you trade in line with the trend of the 5 times higher time frame, you will have a higher chance of catching breakouts in the direction of the trend.
So we have this rule, Always Trade when Price is Going Away from The Purple Line. Simple as that.
Buy Only: Price above the Purple Line
Sell Only: Price below the Purple Line.
What is The Alligator?
The Alligator Indicator was developed by Bill Williams and combines moving averages with fractal geometry.
The indicator helps traders to identify if the market is trending.
It consists of 3 lines: the blue line (aka the Alligator's Jaw),
the red Line (aka the Alligator's Teeth) and
the green Line (aka the Alligator's Lips).
Each has different lookback periods and offsets that can be set by the user.
The alligator is easy to use and can find trade setups, based on how close together or how far apart the lines are, resembling an alligator opening and closing his mouth. This indicator can be used in combination with other analysis techniques.
Based on calculations of Non-Linear mathematical formula we have arrived at a way to calculate the Trend of the 5 times higher time frame
The Purple Magic Indicates :
The Trend of Current and 5 times higher time frame
It helps prevent trading into Wave 4
It helps with counting Wave 3 and 4
You can use it to time early entry into Wave 5
The bounce of Purple after a wave 3 is often a 50% fib retracement.
Examples:
In the picture below you see an M5 chart and M1 chart.
On the left side, you see Alligator Red Line on the 5-minute chart
on the right side, you see The Purple Magic line. Which depicts the same price regions.
This is the Sweet Spot where we take trades.
In line with The Awesome oscillator if you time your entries based on a pullback towards the purple, it can be a system on its own. Nothing else required. But we have a better method.
When we put together, AIMS The Box, AIMS The Gator, and AIMS The Wave indicators, things work even smoother.

VolWaves‴ | Volume Waves‴What does it do?
This indicator allows you to identify possible top and bottom reversals by having a prior volume reversal identifiable by positive (top reversal) and negative (bottom reversal) waves.
How does it work?
Everytime the wave starts ending its movement by shrinking the size of the histogram bars, it might be signing that a price reversal is on its way. It is possible to adjust the wave shape by increasing/decreasing its gradient value analysis, but it's so easy to use that sometimes no reconfiguration is needed, just add it and let it guide you.
What's my filling?
I've been testing this indicator for weeks and so far with incredible reversal signals.
Riptide - Loki (Market Cipher B / WaveTrend)Hey guys,
Just a free version of LazyBears WaveTrend indicator - modified to be a bit more reactive with MFI added for open use. This is a slightly stripped down version but the original is open and wanted to keep it that way.
Behind the wave I've added an RSI and Stochastic for those on free plans to allow you saving some indicator space and find confluence on two pretty common indicators.
If you are interested in some of the other indicators you can.
