thinkCNE - Key with Multiple ColoursCustomisable Key with Multi-Coloured Highlights for Chart Annotations
Overview:
This Customizable Key indicator is designed to provide traders with a clear and visually customizable legend that can be displayed on their chart. It allows users to annotate their charts with up to 10 distinct labels, each paired with a unique color-coded square. This feature is especially useful when you need to visually differentiate between various technical elements on your chart, such as support/resistance levels, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), or important pivot points.
Key Features:
Customizable Labels and Colors: Each row in the table can be customized with unique text and background colors. This flexibility allows traders to create a personalized key that reflects the specific elements they are tracking, such as monthly FVGs, daily supports, volume-based zones, or any other custom annotations.
Flexible Number of Rows: The user can enable or disable rows as needed, which ensures that the table only shows relevant information. If fewer than 10 rows are required, the unused rows can be hidden from view, maintaining a clean and uncluttered chart.
Dynamic Table Placement: The key can be placed at different positions on the chart (top-right, middle-right, or bottom-right), giving users control over where the key appears to avoid covering important parts of their technical analysis.
Adjustable Size and Text Format: Users can customize the size of the color squares, the text, and even the overall appearance of the table. The text size can range from small to huge, making the labels easy to read based on personal preferences.
Use Cases:
Annotating Key Technical Zones: The indicator is perfect for annotating multiple technical zones or levels that require consistent attention. For example, traders can label areas like "Monthly FVG," "Daily Support," "Key Resistance," or even "Volume Spike," and color-code them accordingly for quick reference.
Drawing Clarity: A well-organized chart is essential for clear decision-making. This indicator enhances clarity by visually categorizing different chart features, making it easier to quickly interpret the chart without confusion. The customizable color squares ensure that users can quickly identify which technical element corresponds to which label on the chart.
Visual Aid for Strategy Execution: For traders using strategies involving multiple indicators, support and resistance lines, or patterns, this key helps keep track of all the elements, especially when several overlapping annotations might clutter the chart. It allows users to draw specific attention to key areas of interest and explain the rationale for each one.
Educational & Presentational Tool: If you're conducting trading education sessions or presentations, this indicator can serve as a powerful tool to explain concepts in real-time. You can present your chart with clearly marked zones or levels, where each color and label explains the reasoning behind your analysis. It’s a professional tool for walkthroughs or strategy breakdowns.
Benefits:
Enhanced Visual Organization: The color-coded squares and corresponding labels make it easier to maintain organization within a busy chart. Traders can distinguish between multiple chart elements at a glance, which enhances their focus on critical zones or setups.
Improved Decision-Making: By clearly labeling and color-coding areas of importance, traders can reduce the time it takes to assess the chart and make decisions, as the key provides a concise reference.
Customizable to Individual Needs: Traders can adapt the indicator to their specific trading style and chart elements, whether they're swing traders marking longer-term zones or day traders focusing on short-term levels.
Clarity on Complex Charts: For traders using charts with several indicators and drawings, the ability to clearly define what each color and label represents ensures that the chart remains understandable, even with multiple overlays.

Fibonacci & Bollinger Bands StrategyThis strategy combines Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci retracement/extension levels to identify potential entry and exit points in the market. Here’s a breakdown of each component and how the strategy works:
1. Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands consist of a simple moving average (SMA) and two standard deviations (upper and lower bands) plotted above and below the SMA. The bands expand and contract based on market volatility.
Purpose in Strategy:
The lower band represents an area where the market might be oversold.
The upper band represents an area where the market might be overbought.
The price crossing these bands suggests overextended market conditions, which can be used to identify potential reversals.
2. Fibonacci Retracement and Extension Levels:
Fibonacci retracement levels are horizontal lines that indicate where price might find support or resistance as it retraces some of its previous movement. Common retracement levels are 61.8% and 78.6%.
Fibonacci extension levels are used to project areas where the price might extend after completing a retracement. These levels can help determine potential targets after a significant price movement.
Purpose in Strategy:
The strategy calculates the most recent swing high (fibHigh) and swing low (fibLow) over a lookback period. It then plots Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on this range.
The Fibonacci levels are used as key support and resistance areas. The price approaching or touching these levels signals potential turning points in the market.
3. Entry Criteria:
A long position (buy) is triggered when:
The price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band, indicating an oversold condition.
The price is near or above a Fibonacci extension level (calculated based on the most recent price swing).
This suggests that the price is potentially reaching a strong support area, where a reversal is likely.
4. Exit Criteria:
The long position is closed (exit trade) when either:
The price touches or crosses the upper Bollinger Band, signaling an overbought condition.
The price reaches a Fibonacci retracement level or exceeds the recent swing high (fibHigh), indicating a potential exhaustion point or a reversal area.
5. General Strategy Logic:
The strategy takes advantage of market volatility (captured by the Bollinger Bands) and key support/resistance levels (determined by Fibonacci retracement and extension levels).
By combining these two techniques, the strategy identifies potential entry points at oversold levels with the expectation that the market will retrace or reverse upward, especially when near key Fibonacci extension levels.
Exit points are identified by potential overbought levels (Bollinger upper band) or key Fibonacci retracement levels, where the price might reverse downward.
6. Conditions to Execute the Strategy:
The Fibonacci levels are only calculated once the price has made a significant movement, establishing a recent high and low over a 50-bar period (which you can adjust). This ensures the Fibonacci levels are based on meaningful swings.
The entry and exit signals are filtered using both Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci levels to ensure that trades are not taken solely based on one indicator, thus reducing false signals.
Key Features of the Strategy:
Trend-following with reversal: It tries to catch reversals when the price hits extreme levels (Bollinger Bands) while respecting important Fibonacci levels.
Dynamic market adaptation: The strategy adapts to market conditions as it recalculates Fibonacci levels based on recent price swings and adjusts the Bollinger Bands for market volatility.
Confirmation through multiple indicators: It uses both the volatility-based signals from Bollinger Bands and the price structure from Fibonacci levels to confirm trade entries and exits.
Summary of the Strategy:
The strategy looks to buy low and sell high based on oversold/overbought signals from Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci levels that indicate key support and resistance zones.
By combining these two technical indicators, the strategy aims to reduce risk and increase accuracy by only entering trades when both indicators suggest favorable conditions.

Flat Market Range Pro [CHE]Flat Market Range Pro Indicator
Introduction
Hey there! 👋
Welcome to our overview of the Flat Market Range Pro indicator. Whether you're new to trading or a seasoned pro, this tool is designed to help you spot those flat market conditions where prices are chilling within a certain range. By highlighting these consolidation zones and potential breakout points, it offers some pretty neat insights to boost your trading strategies. Let’s dive in and explore how this indicator can make your trading journey smoother and more informed!
How It Works
The Flat Market Range Pro indicator is all about understanding the ebb and flow of the market. Here's a simple breakdown:
Range Detection:
Range Period (range_period): This sets the number of bars (think of them as time slices) the indicator looks back to find the highest highs and lowest lows. It’s like setting the scope for your search.
Minimum Candles in Range (min_candles_in_range): Ensures that there are enough candles (price bars) within the range to make the detection meaningful. No point in highlighting a range if it’s too short, right?
Adaptive Moving Average (AMA):
Think of AMA as the indicator’s way of staying flexible. It smooths out the price data to better spot trends within those flat ranges. Don’t worry, it’s working behind the scenes and won’t clutter your chart.
Breakout Detection:
When the price decides to break free from its cozy range, the indicator flags it. It waits for confirmation to make sure it’s not just a fleeting move, adding a layer of reliability to your signals.
Visualization:
Flat Market Zones: These are shaded areas that highlight where the price has been consolidating.
Support and Resistance Lines: Automatically drawn lines that mark key price levels, helping you see where the price might bounce or break through.
Trade Signals: Arrows popping up to show potential buy or sell opportunities when breakouts occur.
Breaking It Down
1. Detecting the Range
The indicator scans through the past range_period bars to find the highest and lowest prices. This creates a dynamic range that adjusts as new data comes in. It’s like having a smart assistant keeping an eye on where the action is happening.
2. The Role of AMA
Even though you won’t see AMA on your chart, it plays a crucial role. It helps the indicator adapt to changing market conditions by smoothing out the data, making sure the breakout signals are spot-on and not just random noise.
3. Spotting Breakouts
A breakout happens when the price moves beyond the established range. The indicator marks these moments with clear arrows, so you know when it might be a good time to jump in or out of a trade. Plus, it waits for confirmation to ensure these signals are solid.
4. Visualizing Flat Markets
Shaded boxes highlight the areas where the price has been consolidating, making it easy to see when the market is flat. Support and resistance lines are drawn automatically, and you can even customize how they look to match your personal style.

Day & Swing Trading EMA Clouds with Adaptive LevelsDay & Swing Trading EMA Clouds with Adaptive Levels is a tool designed for traders who need a flexible indicator that adapts to both short-term (day trading) and long-term (swing trading) strategies. The indicator blends EMA clouds and adaptive support/resistance levels, making it suitable for analyzing trend strength and key price zones.
How It Works:
EMA Clouds for Trend Detection:
This indicator uses three EMAs (Fast, Intermediate, Slow) to create two clouds:
Fast Cloud: The area between the fast and Intermediate EMAs.
Slow Cloud: The area between the Intermediate and slow EMAs.
The cloud colors change based on trend direction:
Positive (uptrend): When the fast EMA is above the Intermediate EMA (turquoise) or the Intermediate EMA is above the slow EMA (teal).
Negative (downtrend): When the fast EMA is below the Intermediate EMA (pink) or the Intermediate EMA is below the slow EMA (magenta).
Traders can use these clouds to visually gauge market momentum and trend reversals.
Adaptive EMA Settings Based on Trading Mode:
The EMA lengths adjust automatically depending on whether you're in Day Trading or Swing Trading mode:
Day Trading Mode uses shorter periods to capture quick price movements:
Fast EMA: 5-period
Mid EMA: 13-period
Slow EMA: 21-period
Swing Trading Mode uses longer periods to capture broader trends:
Fast EMA: 12-period
Mid EMA: 26-period
Slow EMA: 50-period
This dynamic adjustment allows you to switch between trading styles seamlessly, with the EMAs reflecting the most relevant timeframes for each strategy.
Adaptive Support and Resistance Levels:
Depending on the selected trading mode, the indicator dynamically plots key levels:
Day Trading Mode: Previous day’s high, low, and midpoint, as well as 2-day levels.
Swing Trading Mode: Previous month’s high, low, and midpoint, as well as 2-month levels.
These levels act as dynamic support and resistance zones, giving traders critical areas to monitor for potential reversals or breakouts.
Buy & Sell Signals:
Visual buy/sell signals are generated when the fast EMA crosses above or below the slow EMA. These signals can help traders identify potential trend reversals.
Customization:
You can fully adjust the transparency and colors of the clouds to fit your personal preferences and trading style.
Why This Combination?
Combining EMA clouds with adaptive levels provides traders with a complete picture. The clouds highlight the underlying market momentum and trend strength, while the adaptive levels offer potential entry/exit points based on historical price action. This unique mashup allows traders to follow trends and plan trades around key support and resistance zones.
Birdies [LuxAlgo]The Birdies indicator uses a unique technique to provide support/resistance curves based on a circle connecting the last swing high/low.
A specific, customizable part of this circle acts as a curve of interest, which can trigger visual breakout signals.
🔶 USAGE
The script projects a bird-like pattern when a valid Swing point is found. Multiple customization options are included.
🔹 Trend & Support/Resistance Tool
The color fill patterns and the wing boundaries can give insights into the current trend direction as well as serve as potential support/resistance areas.
In the example above, "Birdies" coincide with pullback and support/resistance zones.
🔹 Swing Length & Buffer
Besides the "Swing Length", with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels, the script's behavior can be fine-tuned with filters ("Settings" - "Validation").
🔹 Validation
To minimize clutter, three filters are included:
Minimum X-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Minimum Y-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Buffer (Multiple of ATR)
The "Minimum X/Y-Distance" creates a zone where a new Swing is considered invalid. Only when the Swing is out of the zone, can it be considered valid.
In other words, in the example above, a Swing High can only be valid when enough bars/time have passed, and the difference between the last Swing and the previous is more than the ATR multiplied by the "Minimum Y-Distance" factor.
The "Buffer" creates a line above/below the "Birdy", derived from the measured ATR at the conception of the "Birdy" multiplied with a factor ("Buffer").
When the closing price crosses the "Birdy", it must also surpass this buffer line to produce a valid signal, lowering the risk of clutter as a result.
🔶 DETAILS
Birdies are derived from a circle that connects two Swing points. The left-wing curve originates from the most recent "Swing point" to the last value on the circle before crossing its midline. The mirror image of the left wing creates the right wing.
Enabling "Origine" will draw a line from the last Swing to the first.
🔹 Style
The publication includes a style setting with four options.
The first, "Birdy," shows a bird-like shape derived from a circle connecting the last Swing High and Swing Low.
The second option holds everything from the first option but connects both wingtips, providing potential horizontal levels of interest.
When setting "Birdy" to "None", the visual breakout signals will not defer from previous settings, but the focus is shifted towards the fill color, which can help detect potential trend shift.
A fourth setting, "Left Wing", will only show the left part of the "Birdy" pattern, removing the right part from the equation. This will change the visual breakout signals, providing alternative signals.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: The period used for swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
🔹 Validation
Minimum X-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Minimum Y-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Buffer (Multiple of ATR)
🔹 Style
Bullish Patterns: Enable / color
Bearish Patterns: Enable / color
Buffer Zone: Show / Color
Color Fill: Show color fill between two Birdies (if available)
Origine: Show the line between both Swing Points
🔹 Calculation
Calculated Bars: Allows the usage of fewer bars for performance/speed improvement
Volumatic S/R Levels [BigBeluga]THE VOLUMATIC S/R LEVELS
The Volumatic S/R Levels [ BigBeluga ] is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify and visualize significant support and resistance levels based on volume and price action.
The core concept of this indicator is to highlight areas where large volume and significant price movements coincide. It does this by plotting horizontal lines at price levels where unusually large candles (in terms of price range) occur alongside high trading volume. These lines represent potential support and resistance levels that are likely to be more significant due to the increased market activity they represent.
⬤ Key Features
Dynamic S/R Level Identification: Automatically detects and displays support and resistance levels from high volume candles.
Volume-Weighted Visualization: Uses line color to see positive or negative volume and box size to represent the strength of each level
Positive and Negative Volume:
Box Size Based on Volume:
Adaptive Levels Color: Adjusts level color based on price above or below level
Real-time Level Extension: Extends identified levels to the right side of the chart for better visibility
Volume and Percentage Labels: Displays volume information and relative strength percentage for each level
Dashed Levels: Displays levels with which price have interact multiple times
Dashboard: Shows max and min level information for quick reference
⬤ How to Use
Identify Key Levels: Look for horizontal lines representing potential support and resistance areas
Assess Level Strength:
- Thicker boxes indicate stronger levels, on which price reacts more
Monitor Price Interactions: Watch how price reacts when approaching these levels for potential trade setups
Volume Confirmation: Use the volume boxes to confirm the significance of each level
Relative Strength Analysis: Check the percentage labels to understand each level's importance relative to others
Trend Analysis: Use the color of the levels (lime for bullish, orange for bearish) to understand the overall market sentiment at different price points
Quick Reference: Utilize the dashboard to see the strongest and weakest levels at a glance
⬤ Customization
Levels Strength: Adjust the minimum threshold for level strength identification (default: 2.4)
Levels Amount: Set the maximum number of levels to display on the chart (max: 20)
The Volumatic S/R Levels indicator provides traders with a sophisticated tool for identifying key price levels backed by significant volume. By visualizing these levels directly on the chart and providing detailed volume and relative strength information, it offers valuable insights into potential areas of support, resistance, and price reversal. The addition of a ranking system and dashboard further enhances the trader's ability to quickly assess the most significant levels. This indicator is particularly useful for traders focusing on volume analysis and those looking to enhance their understanding of market structure. As with all technical tools, it's recommended to use this indicator in conjunction with other forms of analysis for comprehensive trading decisions.
Swing Points [CrossTrade]The "Swing Points" indicator is designed to help identify key swing points, trends, and potential support and resistance areas on a trading chart. This indicator overlays on the price chart and offers several features for enhanced market analysis.
Swing Point Identification: The indicator identifies swing highs and lows (pivot points) over a user-defined period. These points are crucial in understanding market reversals and momentum.
Swing Points Display: Users have the option to visually display these pivot points on the chart. Swing highs are marked with a red "H" above the bar, and swing lows with a green "L" below the bar, aiding in quick visual identification.
Center Line Calculation and Display: A dynamic center line is calculated using the pivot points, providing a baseline that adapts to market movements. The center line's appearance changes based on its position relative to the current price, making it a useful trend indicator.
Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator plots horizontal support and resistance lines based on the swing lows and highs, respectively. This feature helps traders identify potential areas of price consolidation or breakout.
Customization Options: Users can customize the period for swing point calculation and choose whether to display the pivot points, center line, and support/resistance levels.
Alert Features
Swing High Break Alert: An alert is triggered when a new swing high is detected, signaling a potential upward momentum shift.
Swing Low Break Alert: This alert activates when a new swing low is formed, possibly indicating a downward momentum shift.
Center Line Trend Color Change Alert: Alerts users when the center line changes its trend color, which could signify a change in overall market trend direction.

🔵 BASIC DEMONSTRATION OF ALL FEATURES
1. MARKET STRUCTURE
The preceding image illustrates the market structure functionality within the Smart Money Concepts indicator.
➤ Solid lines: These represent the core indicator's internal structure, forming the foundation for most other components. They visually depict the overall market direction and identify major reversal points marked by significant price movements (denoted as 'x').
➤ Internal Structure: These represent an alternative internal structure with the potential to drive more rapid market shifts. This is particularly relevant when a significant gap exists in the established swing structure, specifically between the Break of Structure (BOS) and the most recent Change of High/Low (CHoCH). Identifying these formations can offer opportunities for quicker entries and potential short-term reversals.
➤ Sweeps (x): These signify potential turning points in the market where liquidity is removed from the structure. This suggests a possible trend reversal and presents crucial entry opportunities. Sweeps are identified within both swing and internal structures, providing valuable insights for informed trading decisions.
➤ Mapping structure: A tool that automatically identifies and connects significant price highs and lows, creating a zig-zag pattern. It visualizes market structure, highlights trends, support/resistance levels, and potential breakouts. Helps traders quickly grasp price action patterns and make informed decisions.
➤ Color-coded candles based on market structure: These colors visually represent the underlying market structure, making it easier for traders to quickly identify trends.
➤ Extreme H&L: It visualizes market structure with extreme high and lows, which gives perspective for macro Market Structure.
2. VOLUMETRIC ORDER BLOCKS
Order blocks are specific areas on a financial chart where significant buying or selling activity has occurred. These are not just simple zones; they contain valuable information about market dynamics. Within each of these order blocks, volume bars represent the actual buying and selling activity that took place. These volume bars offer deeper insights into the strength of the order block by showing how much buying or selling power is concentrated in that specific zone.
Additionally, these order blocks can be transformed into Breaker Blocks. When an order block fails—meaning the price breaks through this zone without reversing—it becomes a breaker block. Breaker blocks are particularly useful for trading breakouts, as they signal that the market has shifted beyond a previously established zone, offering opportunities for traders to enter in the direction of the breakout.
Here's a breakdown:
➤ Bear Order Blocks (Red): These are zones where a lot of selling happened. Traders see these areas as places where sellers were strong, pushing the price down. When the price returns to these zones, it might face resistance and drop again.
➤ Bull Order Blocks (Green): These are zones where a lot of buying happened. Traders see these areas as places where buyers were strong, pushing the price up. When the price returns to these zones, it might find support and rise again.
These Order Blocks help traders identify potential areas for entering or exiting trades based on past market activity. The volume bars inside blocks show the amount of trading activity that occurred in these blocks, giving an idea of the strength of buying or selling pressure.
➤ Breaker Block: When an order block fails, meaning the price breaks through this zone without reversing, it becomes a breaker block. This indicates a significant shift in market liquidity and structure.
➤ A bearish breaker block occurs after a bullish order block fails. This typically happens when there's an upward trend, and a certain level that was expected to support the market's rise instead gives way, leading to a sharp decline. This decline indicates that sellers have overcome the buyers, absorbing liquidity and shifting the sentiment from bullish to bearish.
Conversely, a bullish breaker block is formed from the failure of a bearish order block. In a downtrend, when a level that was expected to act as resistance is breached, and the price shoots up, it signifies that buyers have taken control, overpowering the sellers.
3. FAIR VALUE GAPS:
A fair value gap (FVG), also referred to as an imbalance, is an essential concept in Smart Money trading. It highlights the supply and demand dynamics. This gap arises when there's a notable difference between the volume of buy and sell orders. FVGs can be found across various asset classes, including forex, commodities, stocks, and cryptocurrencies.
FVGs in this toolkit have the ability to detect raids of FVG which helps to identify potential price reversals.
Mitigation option helps to change from what source FVGs will be identified: Close, Wicks or AVG.
4. SWING FAILURE PATTERN (SFP):
The Swing Failure Pattern is a liquidity engineering pattern, generally used to fill large orders. This means, the SFP generally occurs when larger players push the price into liquidity pockets with the sole objective of filling their own positions.
SFP is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential market reversals. It works by detecting instances where the price briefly breaks a previous high or low but fails to maintain that breakout, quickly reversing direction.
How it works:
Pattern Detection: The indicator scans for price movements that breach recent highs or lows.
Reversal Confirmation: If the price quickly reverses after breaching these levels, it's identified as an SFP.
➤ SFP Display:
Bullish SFP: Marked with a green symbol when price drops below a recent low before reversing upwards.
Bearish SFP: Marked with a red symbol when price rises above a recent high before reversing downwards.
➤ Deviation Levels: After detecting an SFP, the indicator projects white lines showing potential price deviation:
For bullish SFPs, the deviation line appears above the current price.
For bearish SFPs, the deviation line appears below the current price.
These deviation levels can serve as a potential trading opportunity or areas where the reversal might lose momentum.
With Volume Threshold and Filtering of SFP traders can adjust their trading style:
Volume Threshold: This setting allows traders to filter SFPs based on the volume of the reversal candle. By setting a higher volume threshold, traders can focus on potentially more significant reversals that are backed by higher trading activity.
SFP Filtering: This feature enables traders to filter SFP detection. It includes parameters such as:
5. LIQUIDITY CONCEPTS:
➤ Equal Lows (EQL) and Equal Highs (EQH) are important concepts in liquidity-based trading.
EQL: A series of two or more swing lows that occur at approximately the same price level.
EQH: A series of two or more swing highs that occur at approximately the same price level.
EQLs and EQHs are seen as potential liquidity pools where a large number of stop loss orders or limit orders may be clustered. They can be used as potential reverse points for trades.
This multi-period feature allows traders to select less and more significant EQL and EQH:
➤ Liquidity wicks:
Liquidity wicks are a minor representation of a stop-loss hunt during the retracement of a pivot point:
➤ Buy and Sell side liquidity:
The buy side liquidity represents a concentration of potential buy orders below the current price level. When price moves into this area, it can lead to increased buying pressure due to the execution of these orders.
The sell side liquidity indicates a pool of potential sell orders below the current price level. Price movement into this area can result in increased selling pressure as these orders are executed.
➤ Sweep Liquidation Zones:
Sweep Liquidation Zones are crucial for understanding market structure and potential future price movements. They provide insights into areas where significant market participants have been forced out of their positions, potentially setting up new trading opportunities.
🔵 USAGE & EXAMPLES
The core principle behind the success of this toolkit lies in identifying "confluence." This refers to the convergence of multiple trading indicators all signaling the same information at a specific point or area. By seeking such alignment, traders can significantly enhance the likelihood of successful trades.
MS + OBs
The chart illustrates a highly bullish setup where the price is rejecting from a bullish order block (POC), while simultaneously forming a bullish Swing Failure Pattern (SFP). This occurs after an internal structure change, marked by a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH). The price broke through a bearish order block, transforming it into a breaker block, further confirming the bullish momentum.
The combination of these elements—bullish order blocks, SFP, and CHoCH—creates a powerful bullish signal, reinforcing the potential for upward movement in the market.
SFP + Bear OB
This chart above displays a bearish setup with a high probability of a price move lower. The price is currently rejecting from a bear order block, which represents a key resistance area where significant selling pressure has previously occurred. A Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) has also formed near this bear order block, indicating that the price briefly attempted to break above a recent high but failed to sustain that upward movement. This failure suggests that buyers are losing momentum, and the market could be preparing for a move to the downside.
Additionally, we can toggle on the Deviation Area in the SFP section to highlight potential levels where price deviation might occur. These deviation areas represent zones where the price is likely to react after the Swing Failure Pattern:
BUY – SELL sides + EQL
The chart showcases a bullish setup with a high probability of price breaking out of the current sell-side resistance level. The market structure indicates a formation of Equal Lows (EQL), which often suggests a build-up of liquidity that could drive the price higher.
The presence of strong buy-side pressure (69%), indicated by the green zone at the bottom, reinforces this bullish outlook. This area represents a key support zone where buyers are outpacing sellers, providing the foundation for a potential upward breakout.
EQL + Bull ChoCh
This chart illustrates a potential bullish setup, driven by the formation of Equal Lows (EQL) followed by a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH). The presence of Equal Lows often signals a liquidity build-up, which can lead to a reversal when combined with additional bullish signals.
Liquidity grab + Bull ChoCh + FVGs
This chart demonstrates a strong bullish scenario, where several important market dynamics are at play. The price begins its upward momentum from Liquidity grab following a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH), signaling the transition from a bearish phase to a bullish one.
As the price progresses, it performs liquidity grabs, which serve to gather the necessary fuel for further movement. These liquidity grabs often occur before significant price surges, as large market participants exploit these areas to accumulate positions before pushing the price higher.
The chart also highlights a market imbalance area, showing strong momentum as the price moves swiftly through this zone.
In this examples, we see how the combination of multiple “smart money” tools helps identify a potential trade opportunities. This is just one of the many scenarios that traders can spot using this toolkit. Other combinations—such as order blocks, liquidity grabs, fair value gaps, and Swing Failure Patterns (SFPs)—can also be layered on top of these concepts to further refine your trading strategy.
🔵 SETTINGS

Instead of relying on disparate tools spread across various platforms, having them integrated into a single, cohesive system allows traders to easily see confluence and make more informed trading decisions.
Lines of Chaos (ATR/ADR Levels)Lines of Chaos Indicator
This script is designed to provide traders with ATR (Average True Range) and ADR (Average Daily Range) support and resistance levels.
How it Works:
Support and Resistance Lines: The script plots ATR/ADR-based support and resistance lines based on a moving average of the last ATR/ADR Length days, the previous day's close, and the current day's open. Changing the ATR/ADR Length value changes the number of days of data to average.
EMA: The EMA is colored red when the ticker is potentially bearish. The EMA is colored green when the ticker is potentially bullish. Changing the EMA Length changes the number of data bars to average.
Default Settings: The default settings are optimized for most trading environments.
Key Features:
ATR & ADR Calculation: You can use ATR, ADR, or both. ATR is recommended for most scenarios.
Customizable Lengths: Adjust the ATR/ADR Length to refine the average calculation to your preference, with 14 being the standard value.
EMA for Market Bias: The EMA helps determine the ticker bias. It is colored green when the market is above the average price and red when below. This allows you to more easily determine whether or not the ADR/ATR levels are valid.
Versatile Usage: Suitable for various trading types, ensuring broad applicability across different market conditions.
How to Use:
Bounces off Levels: When the price bounces off a support/resistance level, the price will likely respect this level. This indicates that the price is unlikely to exceed the ticker's average volatility.
Breakthroughs of Levels: When the price breaks through a support/resistance level, the price will likely continue beyond this level. This indicates that the price has moved beyond that ticker's average volatility.
Moving Average Bands with Signals [UAlgo]The "Moving Average Bands with Signals combines various moving average types with ATR-based bands to help traders identify potential support and resistance levels.
It plots moving average bands with upper and lower support/resistance levels based on the Average True Range (ATR) and user-defined settings.Additionally, the script generates buy/sell signals based on price crossing above or below the bands.
🔶 Key Features
Multiple Moving Average Types:
Supports various moving average calculations including Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA), Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA), Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA), Hull Moving Average (HMA), Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA), Simple Moving Average (SMA), Triangular Moving Average (TMA), Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), and Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA).
Customizable ATR Bands:
Integrates the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate dynamic support and resistance bands around the moving average. The multiplier for the bands is user-adjustable, allowing for finer control over the sensitivity and width of the bands.
Signal Generation:
Provides visual signals on the chart when the price interacts with the support or resistance bands. Users can choose between using the wick or the close price to generate these signals, adding an extra layer of customization based on their trading style.
Flexible Input Parameters:
Allows users to input parameters for moving average length, ATR length, band multiplier, and signal type. Additional settings are available for specific moving average types, such as ALMA's offset and sigma, KAMA's fast and slow periods, and LSMA's offset.
🔶 Disclaimer

Trading financial instruments involves substantial risk and can result in significant financial losses.
The script’s performance in the past is not indicative of future results, and no guarantees are made regarding its accuracy, reliability, or performance.
Candle DecompositionThe Candle Decomposition indicator shows the last 2 candles in detail, with 2 levels of lower timeframes (LTF).
In this way, you can keep oversight of history, while zooming in on the last and previous candle.
This tool is meant to be used in realtime, preferentially for intraday usage.
🔶 USAGE
In this example, on the current timeframe of 15 minutes, you see the 2 latest candles, visualized through dotted lines/boxes.
The first LTF level is set at 5 minutes, the second level at 15 seconds:
(The 2 exclamation marks are just to emphasize this is the latest price which will be repainted)
The combination of 2 LTF's can be helpful in finding support/resistance levels.
These are taken in realtime, not in bar replay, so the outcome wasn't known in advance:
(blue lines were drawn manually)
After first testing resistance, the price went to the support area, bouncing back to an area of resistance and breaking it briefly.
Price turned back, and found support, after which resistance was tested once more:
Support was again tested, after which resistance was clearly broken:
A bit later (every time 1 candle further):
The following example shows 2 last candles with signs of indecision, but LTF candles show support and resistance areas:
🔶 IMPORTANT
PP = TradingView Premium / Professional Plan
BEP = TradingView Basic / Essential / Plus Plan
This publication uses second-based TF's, which is only available for PP users.
To ensure a smooth experience for BEP users, we have disabled the setting "Premium/Professional Plan" .
BEP users will get a warning when trying to use a second-based TF.
If possible, BEP users should use non-second-based TF's.
PP users have to enable the setting "Premium/Professional Plan" .
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Timeframes
Most common timeframes can be used: 2W, W, 3D, 2D, D, 12h, 8h, 6h, 4h, 3h, 2h, 1h, 30min, 15min, 10min, 5min, 3min, 1min
When having the current chart timeframe at 1 of these TF's, you can set 1st and 2nd LTF. Choices are pré-set to ensure maximum usage of drawings:
In the image above you'll see there are gaps between candles.
The script ensures that when there are no trades, instead of attaching the next bar next to the previous, it leaves the gap visible (which is more realistic).
More in detail you can see the gaps are preserved:
(compared between white -current TF- candles, and LTF candles)
🔹 Limitations
When on a Weekly TF, and 2nd LTF is set at 4h, all drawings have enough space:
If we change the 2nd LTF to 2h, there isn't enough space for the second last candle, after which an orange coloured informational warning label will be shown:
When current chart TF is not 1 of the encoded TF's, a red warning text will be shown:
This script can be used using "Bar Replay", but very limited.
You can change the date ("Jump To..."), but "Play" is not advisable.
🔹 Code
This script uses string manipulation to convert inputs like "1 hour", "5 min", "5 sec" to usable timeframe strings like "60", "5" and "5S"
• str.contains(str , 'hour') ? str.tostring(str.tonumber(str.replace(str, ' hour', '')) * 60) : str
• str.replace(input.string( '5 sec', '' , options= ), " sec", "S")
• str.replace(str, " min", "")
Since string manipulation consumes resources, these are place in local blocks.
While inputs always will be extracted, whether it is put in an if-block or not, the string manipulation only will be executed when condition is fulfilled, in this case when we are at the right timeframe.
In following example you'll always see the '1 sec' input, on every TF, but the string manipulation will only happen when we are at a 1 minute TF:
str = ''
if timeframe.period == '1'
str := str.replace(input.string( '1 sec', '' , options= ), " sec", "S")
// output -> "5S" or "1S"
The "visible chart function" chart.right_visible_bar_time is used to reset everything when a new candle starts. This makes sure that when using "barstate.islastconfirmedhistory", the second last bar is used. Also all lines & boxes are automatically removed, starting with a fresh slate.
chT = timenow > chart.right_visible_bar_time
•••
if chT
if barstate.islastconfirmedhistory
f(4)
if barstate.islast
f(2)
If boxes/lines end up before the first bar, or after the last bar, this can be messy.
To protect ourselves against it 2 techniques are used:
math.max(0, x) is used to make sure lines & boxes don't end up before the first bar,
isOK = index < last_bar_index is used to be sure that the width of 1 candle (here index) is not wider than the total of all bars (which is the same as last_bar_index)
🔶 SETTINGS
3 columns:
Current TF: This columns shows you the chart TF where LTF settings are applicable.
1st LTF: set the timeframe of the first level LTF
2nd LTF: set the timeframe of the second level LTF
Colours can be set for 3 timeframes
MA Support & Resistance SignalThis indicator is to show MA Support/Resistance and trend of a stock.
It contains three (3) Moving Averages that can be set to SMA or EMA:
1. Upper Line : SMA 5 (default)
2. Lower Line : SMA 20 (default)
3. Support/Resistance Line : SMA 10 (default)
Other signals:
1. Bull and Blue Dotted Line signal: Upper Line (SMA 5) crossover with Lower Line (SMA 20).
2. Bear and Red Dotted Line signal: Lower Line (SMA 20) crossover with Upper Line (SMA 5).
3. Red Triangle signal: Price closes below Support/Resistance Line (SMA 10).
4. Green Bar signal: Price breaks Support/Resistance Line (SMA 10).
The way how I use it:
- Since I don't like my chart to be crowded with a lot of moving averages, I will disable SMA 5 and SMA 10 and will only leave SMA 20 as my final support line.
- Entry when only:
1. Bull signal appeared.
2. Green bar appeared, or;
3. Price rebound on SMA 20.
I let the script open so that you guys can custom it based on your own preferences. Hope you guys enjoy it.
Exceptional Volume Spike - Potential Trend Reversal IndicatorWhat the Script Does:
The indicator aims to identify potential trend reversal points using the following steps:
Input Parameters: The script has three main input parameters that you can adjust:
relative_volume_threshold: This parameter sets the threshold for what is considered an exceptional volume spike in relation to the average volume.
ema_length: The length of the exponential moving average (EMA) used for smoothing calculations.
lookback_period: The period over which the script calculates potential support and resistance levels.
Relative Volume Calculation: The script calculates the relative volume by dividing the current volume by the average volume over the specified lookback_period.
Exceptional Volume Spikes: The script identifies exceptional volume spikes when the calculated relative volume exceeds the specified relative_volume_threshold.
EMA of Exceptional Volume Spikes: The script calculates the exponential moving average (EMA) of volume spikes. This EMA smooths out the volume spikes over the chosen ema_length.
Trend Direction: The script determines the trend direction using the crossovers of the EMA of exceptional volume spikes. If the EMA crosses above the EMA of regular volume (not spikes), it suggests a potential upward trend reversal. Conversely, if the EMA crosses below, it suggests a potential downward trend reversal.
Support and Resistance Levels: The script calculates potential support and resistance levels based on the highest high (hh) and lowest low (ll) over the specified lookback_period. These levels are then plotted on the chart.
Plot Shapes and EMA: The script plots triangle shapes below the bars for potential upward reversals and above the bars for potential downward reversals. Additionally, it plots the EMA of the closing price with different colors based on the trend direction.
By using this script as an indicator on your chart, you can visually assess potential trend reversal points based on exceptional volume spikes, trend direction crossovers, and support/resistance levels. Remember that this script serves as a tool to assist your analysis, and it's important to combine it with other technical analysis tools and strategies before making trading decisions.
Murrey Math Horizontal/Diagonal + Subharmonics 0 - 12 [All-Time]The Murrey Math lines are created by dividing the range between the high and low of the monthly timeframe prices into equal parts based on the division factor from 2 to 12.
No matter which timeframe you will use, because the calculations based on the most high and low price values.
Better to use > monthly timeframe for faster calculations.
These lines serve as potential support and resistance levels.
The midlines are dashed lines representing the midpoint between two consecutive Murrey Math lines.
The diagonal lines can be enabled to show two different types or both types. These lines connect the highs or lows of the price bars in a diagonal manner.
The subharmonic lines represent smaller divisions within each Murrey Math range. They can be customized to show only strong subharmonics or all subharmonics. Subharmonics are calculated based on the division factor and can provide additional support and resistance levels within the Murrey Math framework.
This script helps visualize the Murrey Math levels and their associated lines on a trading chart, aiding traders in identifying potential price levels for decision-making.
The most strong levels which I tested were: 2, 4, 6, 8, 12.
I was inspired by Gann's work and i tried to implement this indicator.
It's the most accurate version of Murrey Math calculations, you can set the value of 8 which Gann was used but I did up to 12 because of my experiments and I would recommend you to use the value of 12.
This indicator can be used for all types of markets.
Also note, that the strong levels described above is tested on division by 12 setting.
Anyway, you can use the divison of 8 and use the standart strong s/r levels.
(for more information search for Gann 2.0 support resistance on the internet).
Also note: this information is not a financial advice, just my opinion to the indicator I implemented. Please use this indicator wisely and focus to save your money, not earn.
I wish you profitable trades, stick to your risk/money management and the key entry points!
Pivots Support Resistance ZoneThis simple script base on function of Pivot High Low to plot Support and Resistance Zone on chart with detail as below:
1. Support Zone
+ New Pivot Low is plotted
+ New Pivot Low lower previous Pivot Low
+ Upper Line of Support Zone is previous Pivot Low
+ Lower Line of Support Zone is new Pivot Low
2. Resistance Zone
+ New Pivot High is plotted
+ New Pivot High higher previous Pivot High
+ Upper Line of Resistance Zone is new Pivot High
+ Lower Line of Resistance Zone is previous Pivot High
DR/IDR Candles [LuxAlgo]This indicator displays defining ranges (DR) and implied defining ranges (IDR) constructed from two user set sessions (RDR/ODR) as graphical candles on the chart. The script introduces additional graphical elements to the original DR/IDR concept and as such can be thought as a graphical method in addition to a technical indicator.
Additionally, this script can display various Fibonacci retracements from the constructed DR/IDR if enabled within the settings.
Settings
Regular Session: Enable/disable regular session's DR/IDR alongside setting the session time. By default, 09:30 - 10:30 am.
Overnight Session: Enable/disable overnight session's DR/IDR alongside setting the session time. By default, 03:00 - 04:00 am.
UTC Offset: UTC offset for the time zone, by default -5 (EST)
Retracements
Reverse: Inverts source range upper/lower value for constructing the retracements.
From: Source range used to construct the retracements, by default DR is used.
By default, the 0.5 retracement (average line) is displayed.
Usage
The used sessions are highlighted by a gray background. DRs are highlighted by dashed lines while IDRs are highlighted by solid ones. The maximum/minimum price between each user set session is highlighted by solid wicks.
The color of the DRs/IDRs/wicks are determined by the price position relative to the DR; if price is above the DR maximum, then a blue color is used. If price is below, then an orange color is used, and if price is within the DR range, then a gray color is used.
Additionally, the area of the DR range is used to highlight the number of time price is located within the DR, with a longer background highlighting a higher number of occurrences. This can help highlight if the DR levels were potentially useful as support/resistance.
When price is outside the IDR range, the area between the price and IDR is highlighted, in blue if price is above the IDR, and orange if it is under.
The original author of the DR/IDR concept describes 3 rules using the price position relative to the DR/IDR levels:
1.) If price on the 5-minute timeframe closes above the DR high after 10:30 AM or 04:00 AM then the DR low will likely be the low of the trading session.
2.) If price on the 5-minute timeframe closes below the DR low after 10:30 AM or 04:00 AM then the DR high will likely be the high of the trading session.
3.) If price closes above the IDR high after 10:30 AM or 04:00 AM it is an early indication that the low of the DR will be the low of the day and vice versa.
We can see that the above rules are cases of conditional probabilities.
There is no significant data supporting or regarding any statistical probability of the above rules to be true, which are more than uncertain given the stochastic nature of prices. The lack of precision of these rules is also a concern (time zone dependance, applicable markets, etc...).

Auto Fibonacci Levels + Auto Trend Line generatorAnother indicator for you guys!!!
This indicator consists of the 5 key Fibonacci retracement levels, plotted automatically to user input settings. I also have included an auto support/resistance trend line generator.
What is a Fibonacci retracement?
'Fibonacci retracement is a method of technical analysis for determining support and resistance levels. It is named after the Fibonacci sequence of numbers, whose ratios provide price levels to which markets tend to retrace a portion of a move before a trend continues in the original direction.' - Wikipedia
How to use the Fibonacci retracement?
- The Fibonacci levels are default. These percentiles from price to the average of the high in a sample and low in a sample give you a guideline of where a bottom may be, where a top may be, and where a range is being created.
- Look for the price to reject from 61.8% and 76.4%, and also look for price to bounce from 38.2% and 23.6%. If a lower low/higher high is made, the fib levels will follow and the percentiles within will be recalculated after a 5 candle offset period.
- If you see price trending towards the lower percentiles (38&23) and using the 50% as resistance, look for a break downwards and vice versa.
-This Fibonacci set as all others is subject to fake-out, always use this with another series indicator, or don't use it as a signal for entry at all (unless you have a backdated strategy)
How to use the trend line generator?
-The trend line generator will only plot when a lower low/higher high has taken place within the input amount of candles. It is also offset by a user amount.
-The check box will give the option to have the trend line's plot or not.
- If you see a green/red dot it means that that will be your first coordinate for the trend line, and until the computations are complete it will give you an idea of which direction it will be in (resistance or support)
-When opening this indicator zoom out all the way to connect any trend lines that do not load automatically.
Let me know if you have any questions, suggestions or issues! Thank you everyone!

HSRL - historical support resistance linesHSRL provides an indicator of how support and resistance are changing over time. It calculates the percent change in lows, and percent change in highs, then plots them. The HSRL is calculated as the support change - the resistance change. Can be effective in confirming trends, with green being the most bullish, yellow being semi bullish and red being a bearish indicator, where resistance and support are falling.
MACD Support ResistanceThis script is dynamic support & resistance based on MACD cross.
Resistance= Highest value of candle looks back when MACD crossunder.
Support= Lowest value of candle looks back when MACD crossover.
Middle line is average of Resistance and Support.
Buy when close, LSMA and SMMA crossover middle line. Please use Green Trend Line as SL or Trailing.
Sell when close, LSMA and SMMA crossunder middle line. Please use Red Trend Line as SL or Trailing.
Let me know if its useful for you in the comments and by giving Like (means a lot to me). Also share your feedback and ideas to improve this script further.
PFCC - Pivot Fractal Chaos Channel [Open Source]With the release of my indicator "TOTC - Trade outside the Channel" , the Pivot Fractal Chaos Channel used there has attracted significant interest.
Due to requests from some users, I am happy to publish the source code of the PFCC - although it is not "new" and has been implemented in many other scripts in one way or another. Some Examples:
Support and Resistance Levels with Breaks:
Support Resistance MTF:
Pivot Points High Low (HH/HL/LH/LL):
The code is briefly commented. Please feel free to use or further customize it ... And, of course, I would be happy to be named and/or linked. If you're satisfied, maybe buy me a coffee ;-)
I'm curious to see how this indicator will develop with more ideas - Please keep me updated by commenting below or by sending me a message.
Let's take a quick look at the function and idea
PFCC - "Pivot Fractal Chaos Channel" or also known as "Fractal Chaos Band" can serve as a baseline trend indicator for your strategy.
Essentially, the "Fractal Chaos Channel" shows an overall panorama of price action. As they filter out the insignificant price fluctuations. The upper level is created by drawing price highs and the lower level is created by drawing price lows.
Two Ideas, how this indicator can be used
Trend indicator: If the price breaks the upper line, it could be taken as a buy signal. If the price breaks the lower line, it could be taken as a sell signal.
Trailing Stop Loss: You can track the stop loss with the rising line in case of a buy trade. On the other hand, you can track the stop loss with the falling fractal line in case of a sell trade.
What do I need to consider?
It may be advisable to add further indicators and an analysis of the market structure in order to confirm the signals issued by the indicator. Please note that when you make adjustments to any strategy, you always carry out particularly detailed tests.
You would like to use this indicator, but you have adjustment requests, you want to have additional filters or features implemented, ...?
I am happy to create individual indicators based on "PFCC - Pivot Fractal Chaos Channel" or your ideas. Write me a message and we will discuss the details and conditions.
Adaptive Ehlers Deviation Scaled Moving Average (AEDSMA)AEDSMA INTRODUCTION
This indicator is a functional enhancement to “Ehlers Deviation Scaled Moving Average (EDSMA / DSMA)”. I’ve used Volume Breakout and Volatility for dynamic length adaption and further Slope too for trend evaluation.
EDSMA was originally developed by John F. Ehlers (Stocks & Commodities V. 36:8: The Deviation-Scaled Moving Average).
IDEA PLACEMENT
I’ve traded almost every kind of market with different volatility conditions using Moving Averages. It was too much of a hassle to select and use different MA length depending upon market trend. So, the journey started with adapting Moving Averages with another parameter and that’s how “MZ SAMA ” came into being where Slope was used to adapt Adaptive Moving Average with trend change. The problem was still pretty much the same as SAMA might not be effective on every market condition. Hence, I worked on Volume to adapt Moving Averages accordingly. I cane up with “MZ RVSI ” which I used in “MZ DVAMA ” to adapt dynamic length in Adaptive Moving Average and also used “MZ RVSI " alongside Slope as confirmation of trend changes.
Meanwhile, I started using DVAMA methodology on different types on Moving Averages that allow dynamic length for example Hull Moving Average, Linear Regression Curve, SMA, WMA, TMA and many more. All of my tested Mas showed too much flexibility because of volume based Adaptive length.
I came across a script of “Adaptive Hull Moving Average” which pretty much used the similar methodology as DVAMA but when I looked into its depth, its volume oscillator wasn’t working at all and only volatility based dynamic length was used. It was an interesting idea so, I decided to use Volume and Volatility alongside for better results but was nearly impossible to achieve what I wanted using only Hull Moving Average.
I had been using EDSMA in “MA MTF Cross Strategy” and “MZ SRSI Strategy V1.0” previously. It was the perfect choice when comparing to usage of slope on it. DSMA works perfectly as support and resistance as its Deviation Scaled. So, I tried using it to adapt dynamic length based on Volume and Volatility and I wasn’t disappointed. It worked like a charm when I adapted dynamic length between 50 and 255.
DYNAMIC LENGTH BENEFITS
Dynamic length adaption methodology works in a way of adapting Relatively Lower Length leading toward overfitting if trend is supported by Volume and Volatility . Similarly, adapting Relatively Higher Length leading toward underfitting if trend isn’t supported by Volume and Volatility .
Dynamic length adaption makes Moving Average to work better for both Bull and Bear-runs avoiding almost every fake break-in and breakouts. Hence, adaptive MA becomes more reliable for breakout trading.
MA would be more useful as it would adapt almost every chart based on its Volume and Volatility data.
DYNAMIC COLORS AND TREND CORRELATION
I’ve used dynamic coloring to identify trends with more detail which are as follows:
Lime Color: Strong Uptrend supported by Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Fuchsia Color: Weak uptrend only supported by Slope or whatever you’ve selected.
Red Color: Strong Downtrend supported by Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Grey Color: Weak Downtrend only supported by Slope or whatever you’ve selected.
Yellow Color: Possible reversal indication by Slope if enabled. Market is either sideways, consolidating or showing choppiness during that period.
SIGNALS
Green Circle: Market good for long with support of Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Red Circle: Market good to short with support from Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Yellow Cross: Market either touched top or bottom ATR band and can act as good TP or SL.
EDSMA EVELOPE/BANDS: I’ve included ATR based bands to the Adaptive EDSMA which act as good support/resistance despite from main Adaptive EDSMA Curve.
DEFAULT SETTINGS
I’ve set default Minimum length to 50 and Maximum length to 255 which I’ve found works best for almost all timeframes but you can change this delta to adapt your timeframe accordingly with more precision.
Dynamic length adoption is enabled based on both Volume and Volatility but only one or none of them can also be selected.
Trend signals are enabled based on Slope and Volume but Volatility can be enabled for more precise confirmations.
In “ RVSI ” settings TFS Volume Oscillator is set to default but others work good too especially Volume Zone Oscillator. For more details about Volume Breakout you can check “MZ RVSI Indicator".
ATR breakout is set to be positive if period 14 exceeds period 46 but can be changed if more adaption with volatility is required.
EDSMA super smoother filter length is set to 20 which can be increased to 50 or more for better smoothing but this will also change slope results accordingly.
EDSMA super smoother filter poles are set to 2 because found better results with 2 instead of 3.
FURTHER ENHANCEMENTS
So far, I’ve seen better results with Volume Breakout and Volatility but other parameters such as Linear Slope of Particular MA, MACD, “MZ SRSI ”, a Conditional Uptrend MA or simply KDJ can also be used for dynamic length adaption.
I haven't yet gotten used to pine script arrays so, defining and using conditional operators is pretty much lazy programming for me. Would be great redefining everything through truth matrix instead of using if-else conditions.
Signal Table - AutoFib - SMA - EMA - RSI - ATR - VolWith this indicator you can add a table on top of your chart.
What's in this table?
On which graph you open this table, the indicator data at the selected time of that graph are written. In the image below, you can see the table in the upper right.
You can also see two EMAs above the chart in this indicator. You can adjust their length.
You can add automatic fibonacci retracement levels to the top of the chart. In this way, you can see the Fibonacci levels on the chart and determine the support resistance. If the price is above the Fibonacci level, it will appear green on the chart, and red if below. You will understand as you use it.
It turns red if the RSI is below 30 and green if it is above 70.
Likewise, if the price is above the moving averages you have set, it appears as green, and if it is below it, it appears as red.
You can hide and activate the EMA and Fibonacci levels above the chart.
For example, you can get the ETH chart while the BTC chart is open in front of you. I think you will understand everything clearly from the settings tab below. Please support me. I hope you will be satisfied using it.
