Support and Resistance Zones (MTF)

14. Juli

Support and Resistance Zones (MTF) is a multi-timeframe indicator that identifies support and resistance zones and is highly customizable for precise market analysis. Users can adjust various inputs to adapt the zones to price action, highlighting the most significant and probable zones.

█ USAGE & KEY FEAUTURES

1. Look Back Bars: This setting defines the maximum number of bars that can display a zone, removing old ones that are no longer significant. For example, in the 4-hour GBPUSD chart below, only zones from the last 1000 bars are plotted. This helps reduce noise and eliminate unnecessary zones that could lead to incorrect market analysis.



2. Ranging Periods: On lower timeframes, such as a 1-minute chart, overplotting can become more problematic. As shown in the image below, there are many insignificant zones when the market trends upwards. In such cases, retaining zones only where the market is ranging helps identify potential reversal points and entry opportunities.



By focusing on the last 400 bars in a ranging phase, the market structure and key support and resistance areas become clearer, aiding in potential trade setups. Additionally, the "Plot Zone Touches" feature shows where and how many times each zone has been touched, emphasizing zones with multiple price respects.



In fact, users can remove zones of a specific length that have fewer touches than a set amount ("Minimum Zone Touches"). This feature helps eliminate unnecessary zones from the chart.

3. Plotting Zone Breakouts: Zones can be plotted with breakouts labels and even deleted if broken more than a specified number of times enabling the "Cut On Breakouts" feature. For example, zones broken more than two times and by more than two consecutive bars were removed in the image below. The "Breakout Consecutive Bars" setting helps identify fakeouts by allowing the user to set how many consecutive bars must break the zone to define a breakout.



4. Wick Cleaner: This feature deletes zones formed above or below a wick percentage level, depending on whether it is a support or resistance zone. Without this input, charts could have zones formed from long wicks, as shown below.



5. Other User Inputs:
• Delete Overlapped Zones: Removes zones with a specific percentage of their body inside another zone. If this number is negative, zones that are too close to each other will be deleted.
• Change Color On Breakouts: Changes the zone color when the price is above or below it.
• ATR Multiplier: Adjusts the zone width.

█ CONCLUSION
The primary objective of this indicator is to plot key support and resistance zones while minimizing noise from unnecessary zones. As mentioned at the beginning, this indicator is highly customizable, so feel free to experiment with different settings to optimize its performance.

█ IMPORTANT
This indicator is currently not available for multi-timeframe (MTF) market analysis but will be in the near future.
