Awesome Oscillator with AntiStep CorrectionHere is the well-known Awesome Oscillator (AO), which I use to present the real purpose of this post: a function that provides step correction for simple moving averages (SMAs).
We all know that any indicator based on moving averages lags real-time movement. Normally this is fine, but just after large ("step") changes in level, the pre-step values that are still within the SMA window cause the result to falsely reflect continued movement, even when real-time values remain flat.
To counter this, when a step change of a configurable size is detected, I temporarily shrink the SMA window size to include only those values occurring since the step change, and then allow the size to increase to normal length as we move away from the step change. This is accomplished within the antistep_sma() function.
Note that this will cause SMAs of different lengths (e.g. those used in the AO) to be temporarily equal, until the shorter of the two reaches its normal size and begins to leave the longer one behind again. You can see this above, where the AO, which is the difference of two SMAs, goes to 0 immediately after a sufficiently large step change--configured to 0.5% in this case.

Awesome Oscillator and MACD HistogramThis is a quick script that combines two standard indicators, the Awesome Oscillator and MACD histogram, to highlight the beginnings of periods of fast price movement (divergence between the two). Since MACD's EMA responds more quickly than AO's SMA, look for periods of green over gold as a bullish signal, and red under blue as a bearish signal.
Of course both indicators are lagging in nature, but the presence of this divergence often leads larger, continued movement in the same direction.
Bullish Signals
Change from red to green below 0 with either blue or gold above 0 (strengthened on second green bar):
Rising green above 0 with gold below 0:
Bearish Signals
Change from green to red above 0 with either blue or gold below 0 (strengthened on second red bar):
Deepening red below 0 with blue above 0:
Fractal HelperA spinoff from a previous script I published, this configurable indicator also selects highs and lows and then plots a trend line that bounces between them. In addition, it also iterates this up to two more times in a quasi-fractal manner, on larger time scales, and plots them on the same graph.
Of course this will not spit out Elliott waves, but with adjusting, it could aid in discerning one wave from another.
I may experiment with the security function again to get a better, longer L3 plot, although charts are limited in duration anyway.
Fractal Support ResistanceTroubleshooting this script.
The vertical lines are when the alerts fired in TradingView. Along the top a green F is LONG signal and red F is SHORT. Signals fire only after CLOSING for two consecutive bars above or below a fractal. Also there is a min delay of 12 bars between signals.
The alerts are configured identical to the F character plots. Not sure why the alerts are randomly firing. =(
Fractal Breakout V2Version 2 of my fractal pattern aid ( Version 1 ).
I added a bouncing line between the high and low trend lines, connecting consecutive extreme points. I also chased down a pesky bug in the slope calculation...and for now I have disabled the ability to change resolution basis for extreme detection (e.g. 30m on a 1hr chart).
For fun, I added some shading to make it more apparent at a glance what is happening, but if you find it gimmicky, there's an option to turn that off.
I am inexperienced with pattern recognition, so please send feedback if you have any ideas that would make this more useful.
Thanks!

Fractal BreakoutFirst of all, huge credit to synapticEx , whose brilliant use of the security function inspired me to figure out a way to get quasi-shape boundaries automatically drawn on a chart.
This study draws upper and lower trend lines, based on configurable fractal*** reversal detection, calculates slope from the last two upper or lower reversal points, and then extends a dotted line along the same slope...until the next upper (or lower) reversal occurs. If the high (or low) breaks this extension, the dotted line becomes solid to aid visibility. Reversal detection is configurable to use any number of ticks, but probably four to eight will work best.
I made the inclusion of volume in the reversal logic optional (off by default) and left the existing SMA input found in synapticEx's code intact, albeit with a lower default. With the addition of trend lines, I found volume hindered identification of reversals, although I could try various other filters than the SMA included originally.
I have also left intact the very nice ability to change the period and use the requested period identify reversals, courtesy of synapticEx.
This could be used in a strategy, as the values plotted are actual values that are available to include in logic and do not include knowledge of the future. However , information is not available until the floor of half the number of ticks used in reversal detection (I then offset by that number to line things up visually). Having never heard of it until now, I just Googled the Bill Williams Alligator strategy, which looks interesting, so maybe I could see how this could be ported to that.
***As I typed this, I remembered that while making reversal detection configurable, I changed the detection logic simply to look for highest (or lowest) of the desired length of ticks. I don't know whether this is not strictly fractal anymore, but if desired, with a little work, I could make it require consecutive, consistent changes before and after each reversal again.
Here are a few screenshots from hourly ticks, using the "current" (hourly) period, with and without volume, and playing with the number of points used to identify reversals.

Bill Williams. Alligator, Fractals & Res/Sup combined (by vlkvr)Bill Williams indicators (each separately) are simple and quite self-sufficient, however, are most often used together. The key ones (Alligator and Fractals) are freely available and everyone can use them, but why use them on the chart separately, when "together more fun", and not conceivable, in my opinion, they are one without the other.
So, I present "split/copypasta" of two key indicators of Bill Williams, plus (as a bonus) visualization of "Support/Resistance" levels (and in fact, lines from extremes or the same fractals).
As a result, before you indicator "three-in-one".
Smoothened Williams Accumulation/Distribution (Williams AD) Accumulation is a term used to describe a market controlled by buyers;
whereas distribution is defined by a market controlled by sellers.
Williams recommends trading this indicator based on divergences:
Distribution of the security is indicated when the security is making
a new high and the A/D indicator is failing to make a new high. Sell.
Accumulation of the security is indicated when the security is making
a new low and the A/D indicator is failing to make a new low. Buy.

Log-space Williams AlligatorMake Williams Alligator usable for looking at weekly and high-volatility crypto charts.
The built-in indicator may have some problems with these charts, as in example below:
Fractal and Alligator Alerts by JustUncleLThis is based on two well known Bill Williams Fractal and Alligator strategies.
The following code is an implementation is similar to reversal strategy specified here:
forexwot.com
and another well know Alligator break out strategy.
This was achieved by combining some of the ideas from two other indicators:
True Williams Alligator (SMMA) by the_batman
Fractals and Levels by JustUncleL
There are two types of Fractal + Alligator Strategies included in this indicator:
Fractal Reversal : In an uptrend defined by Low Fractal that is above the Alligator teeth and the Alligator mouth is completed open in an uptrend. The opposite for downtrends. (Green and Red Arrows)
Fractal BreakOut : In an uptrend, at the start of Alligator open we look back for the first Fractal High above Alligator Teeth. Alligator teeth must be above mouth. (Aqua and Fuchsia arrows)
Fractals and Levels by JustUncleLEven though there are a many other Fractal and Level indicators, this indicator has some unique features. The indicator will display Fractals, fractal levels and HH/LL points, they will only be drawn after they have completed. Also the indicator has options to :
Show Ideal Fractals Only.
Use Renko Style Fractals, where open/close values are used instead of high/low to find Fractals. This is used to show the correct Fractals when Renko Wicks are enabled.
Has an optional Filter to only display Fractals that are above/below a MA Ribbon.
References:
This code is based on Fractal Levels V8 by RicardoSantos
This is a Renko Chart with "Renko Style Fractals" enabled, notice that the wicks are ignored and only the true Bricks are used for Fractals:

Was looking for something else when surfed into an old question
wanting %R 21 period with EMA 13 period of the %R signal
and being a rookie at this, made this code to post for them.
Tried to comment the script in such a way that other rookies
like me could make better sense of what is being done. Hope
this helps someone. I find it useful as one of my indicators for
trading.

All time frames.
Interpretation:
%R (Red) crosses above it's average (Blue) - bull
%R crosses below it's average - bear. Background
color changes green-up red-down with above crossings.
Most but not all of serious price movement takes place
from the time the %R (red) goes into oversold (or bought) and
exits again.
%R centerline crosses can also be useful.
I use various indicators and want all of the confirmation
that I can get for expectations BUT I never know what the
next bar will do and define my risks accordingly.
Accelerator Oscillator (AC) Backtest The Accelerator Oscillator has been developed by Bill Williams
as the development of the Awesome Oscillator. It represents the
difference between the Awesome Oscillator and the 5-period moving
average, and as such it shows the speed of change of the Awesome
Oscillator, which can be useful to find trend reversals before the
Awesome Oscillator does.
