Fan Projections [theEccentricTrader]
█ OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically projects trendlines in the shape of a fan, from a single point of origin. In the example above I have applied the indicator twice to the 1D SPXUSD. The seven upper lines (green) are projected at an angle of -5 from the 1-month swing high anchor point. And the five lower lines (blue) are projected at an angle of 10 from the 1-week swing low anchor point.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a high price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a low 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.
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.
Trendlines
Trendlines are straight lines that are drawn between two or more points on a price chart. These lines are used as dynamic support and resistance levels for making strategic decisions and predictions about future price movements. For example traders will look for price movements along, and reactions to, trendlines in the form of rejections or breakouts/downs.
█ FEATURES
Inputs
• Anchor Point Type
• Swing High/Low Occurrence
• HTF Resolution
• Highest High/Lowest Low Lookback
• Angle Degree
• Number Lines
• Line Color
Anchor Point Types
• Swing High
• Swing Low
• Swing High (HTF)
• Swing Low (HTF)
• Highest High
• Lowest Low
• Intraday Highest High (intraday charts only)
• Intraday Lowest Low (intraday charts only)
Swing High/Swing Low Occurrence
This input is used to determine which historic peak or trough to reference for swing high or swing low anchor point types.
HTF Resolution
This input is used to determine which higher timeframe to reference for swing high (HTF) or swing low (HTF) anchor point types.
Highest High/Lowest Low Lookback
This input is used to determine the lookback length for highest high or lowest low anchor point types.
Intraday Highest High/Lowest Low Lookback
When using intraday highest high or lowest low anchor point types, the lookback length is calculated automatically based on number of bars since the daily candle opened.
Angle Degree
This input is used to determine the angle of the trendlines. The output is expressed in terms of point or pips, depending on the symbol type, which is then passed through the built in math.todegrees() function. Positive numbers will project the lines upwards while negative numbers will project the lines downwards. Depending on the market and timeframe, the impact input values will have on the visible gaps between the lines will vary greatly. For example, an input of 10 will have a far greater impact on the gaps between the lines when viewed from the 1-minute timeframe than it would on the 1-day timeframe. The input is a float and as such the value passed through can go into as many decimal places as the user requires.
It is also worth mentioning that as more lines are added the gaps between the lines, that are closest to the anchor point, will get tighter as they make their way up the y-axis. Although the gaps between the lines will stay constant at the x2 plot, i.e. a distance of 10 points between them, they will gradually get tighter and tighter at the point of origin as the slope of the lines get steeper.
Number Lines
This input is used to determine the number of lines to be drawn on the chart, maximum is 500.
█ LIMITATIONS
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.
If the lines do not draw or you see a study error saying that the script references too many candles in history, this is most likely because the higher timeframe anchor point is not present on the current timeframe. This problem usually occurs when referencing a higher timeframe, such as the 1-month, from a much lower timeframe, such as the 1-minute. How far you can lookback for higher timeframe anchor points on the current timeframe will also be limited by your Trading View subscription plan. Premium users get 20,000 candles worth of data, pro+ and pro users get 10,000, and basic users get 5,000.
█ RAMBLINGS
It is my current thesis that the indicator will work best when used in conjunction with my Wavemeter indicator, which can be used to set the angle. For example, the average wave height or amplitude could be used as the value for the angle input. Or some factor or multiple of such an average. I think this makes sense as it allows for objectivity when applying the indicator across different markets and timeframes with different energies and vibrations.
