Aggresive Scalper/Swing Crypto StrategyThis is a simple yet very efficient scalper long strategy adapted for low timeframes for crypto. Can also be used with bigger timeframes as a swinger.
Its main components are:
Price oscillator swing
Vortex
Risk management for TP/SL
Rules for entry
We calculate the difference between the oscillator from the lowest low and the highest high. If the difference is positive, its a long potential. If its negative we exit from the long trade.
At the same time we check that the we have a crossover between the VIP vortex with the VIM vortex part.
Lastly we check that the current candle is bigger the second previous high.
Rules for exit
If we reach the take profit or the stop loss.
If we have a negative difference betwee LL and HH and VIP vortex crossunder with VIM vortex .
In this example I aimed for a 1:10 risk reward ratio, meaing that for every dollar lost, we will gain 10 when we win. Thus having a 10% minimum win rate will give us a profit over many trades.

EMA+RSI Pump & Drop Swing Sniper (SL+TP) - StrategyThis is the strategy version of the 'EMA-RSI-Pump-Drop-Swing-Sniper-With-Alerts':
Some additions with this strategy:
~Added Stop loss & Take profit control. In Settings > Inputs if the Stop Loss is at .051 that means it's 5.1% and the Take Profit at .096 is 9.6%. If you wish to remove the TP and SL just change the value to 1.00 and it would be the same as it being 100% TP and SL which is likely to never be hit.
~Added Backtesting by changing the month/date/year in Settings > Inputs
~Added a 2nd EMA line to assist with the long entry signals. I only use this for long entry & exits, though you could use the long exits as Short entries too. I just personally don't do short trading on Bitcoin.
This is using an EMA and RSI with slightly modified settings to give good entry and exit points while looking at Bitcoin. I use this on a 1-hour and 4-hour chart and with other indicators to find good positions to enter a trade or exit if things are turning red.
It's important to know this strategy was made as a request by another user that was using the indicator version. I don't use this as a trading strategy by itself, I use the visuals it gives as a confirmation with other indicators to find the best possible entry and exit positions.
If you click on the EMA line it will color the bars of the chart based on if they are above or below the EMA - This is just visually helpful for me to see the active trend.
Make sure you hover over or click on the EMA line to see the colors of the candles change - it's not visible by default or without doing this.
VuManChu Swing FreeThis is the old version of Range Filter from DonovanWall, that VuManChu is selling in his discord as "VuManChu Swing" which in reality is just Range Filter, a open-source script from DonovanWall.
Gann Circle Swing LevelsThis indicator is based on W. D. Gann's Square of 9 Chart and can be interpreted as the Gann Circle / Gann Wheel / 360 Degree Circle Chart or Square of the Circle Chart.
Spiral arrangement of numbers on the Square of 9 chart creates a very unique square root relationship amongst the numbers on the chart. If you take any number on the Square of 9 chart, take the square root of the number, then add 2 to the root and re-square it, resulting in one full 360 degree cycle (i.e. a 360 degree Circle) out from the center of the chart.
For example,
the square root of 121 = 11,
11 + 2 = 13,
and the square of 13 = 169
The number 169 is one full 360 degree cycle out (with reference to 121) from the center of the Square of 9 chart.
Similarly, if you take any number on the Square of 9 chart, take the square root of the number, then subtract 2 from the root and re-square it, resulting in one full 360 degree inward rotation towards the center of the chart.
For example,
the square root of 565 = 23.77,
23.77 - 2 = 21.77,
and the square of 21.77 = 473.93 (approximately equal to 474, which is directly below 565 on the Square of 9 chart)
The number 474 is one full 360 degree inward rotation (with reference to 565) towards the center of the chart.
How to Use this Indicator ?
This indicator is useful for finding coordinate squares on the Gann Circle that are making hard aspects to a previous position (such as a significant top or bottom) on the circle.
Input :
Swing Point (Significant price point, such as a top or a bottom)
Low / High ? (Is it a bottom or a top)
Number of Gann Levels (Number of Gann Cycles to be projected)
Output :
Gann Support or Resistance Levels (color coded as follows) :
Swing High or Swing Low (BLUE)
Support levels calculated with reference to the Swing High (RED)
Resistance levels calculated with reference to the Swing Low (LIME)
Simple and efficient swing RSI systemHello there,
I am glad to bring you another simple and efficient algorithm.
Its made purely from RSI which can be used directly or inversed. Its suited for swing trading 15 min chart or more minimum.
Can be adapted to all types of financial markets.
Rules for entry are easy : First we have the stop loss and take profits levels. Based on SL , we have the risk % of our equity, where the minimum lot we can trade its setted on 0.1 lots , can be modified tho.
For entries, we have the overbought and oversold levels.
Whenever we cross one of them we enter the trade . We close the trade whenever we reach sl/tp or inverse crosses.
Although its has a low win rate, its a very good system to catch big trends, so there you can recover all the small losses that you had in a untrend market .
Aswell it requires a lot of patience, since a position can be kept for weeks, even months.
Hope you enjoyed it .

swinglibraryLibrary "swinglibrary"
This library is for calculating non-repainting swings for further calculation on them.
These swings can later be drawn, but drawing is not part of this library, only the calculation.
What do I need to use the library?
You better include the following constants into your script using this library:
int SWING_NO_ACTION = 0
int SWING_FLIP = 1
int SWING_FLIP_NEW_SWING = 2
int SWING_FLIP_UPDATED = 3
int RELATION_HIGHER = 1
int RELATION_EQUAL = 0
int RELATION_LOWER = -1
Choosing the function, that fits your needs
This library contains 4 functions for calculating swings, the difference between them are the data you get for every swing point and additional average values for length and duration:
swings()
swingsR()
swingsL()
swingsLDR()
The naming scheme of these functions is the following:
The base version swings() is only for the swings containing the following swingPoint type:
swingPoint
Fields:
x (integer) : bar index
y (float) : price
hilo (integer) 1 -> high, -1 -> low
and the return type:
swingReturn
Fields:
swings (array) : array of the last x swing points
newSwingHigh (integer) : flag to detect changes for swing highs see constants (SWING_NO_ACTION, SWING_FLIP_NEW_SWING, SWING_FLIP_UPDATED)
newSwingLow (integer) : flag to detect changes for swing lows see constants (SWING_NO_ACTION, SWING_FLIP_NEW_SWING, SWING_FLIP_UPDATED)
The R in swingsR() stands for relation where the previously shown types do also contain the relation between the swings of the same swing type (highs and lows respectively).
The same goes for L in swingsL() for length containing the price difference between the current and previous swing point in ticks.
And in the following version swingsLDR() there is also the duration between the current and previous point included.
The parameters for the other functions and type definitions include only the ones, that are needed, the "full" version of the function is described here:
swingsLDR(swingSize, dtbStrength, init, SWING_HISTORY_NUM)
Parameters:
swingSize (int) This parameter defines the size of the swings to look after, meaning higher values will lead to bigger swings
dtbStrength (int) Value between 0 and 100 is a factor (%) to the ATR that is used to calculate equal highs/lows (double tops / bottoms).
Higher values will result in a higher tolerance of price difference between the swings.
init (bool) This value is usually set to false on default.
It has a special use case, where we need to reduce memory usage and calculation time on the script using this library by start calculating at x bars back instead of the beginning of the chart.
In this case, we set init = true on the first bar we start calculating the swings on to perform the correct initialization.
SWING_HISTORY_NUM (int) This is the max number of swings that are stored in the array, so only the last SWING_HISTORY_NUM swings are stored in the array to reduce the memory usage.
New ones remove the oldest ones like in a ring buffer.
This is also influencing the average duration and average swing length.
swingPointLDR
Fields:
x (integer) : bar index
y (float) : price
hilo (integer) : 1 -> high, -1 -> low
length (float) : price difference to the previous swing point in ticks
duration (integer) : duration difference to the previous swing point in number of bars
relation (integer) : see constants RELATION_HIGHER, RELATION_EQUAL, RELATION_LOWER: reelation to the previous swing points of the same type (previous high or previous low respectively)
swingReturnLDR
Fields:
swings (array) : array of the last x swing points
newSwingHigh (integer) : flag to detect changes for swing highs see constants (SWING_NO_ACTION, SWING_FLIP_NEW_SWING, SWING_FLIP_UPDATED)
newSwingLow (integer) : flag to detect changes for swing lows see constants (SWING_NO_ACTION, SWING_FLIP_NEW_SWING, SWING_FLIP_UPDATED)
avSwLength (float) : average swing length for the last x swings (depending on the max number of swings)
avSwingDuration (float) : average swing duration for the last x swings (depending on the max number of swings)
Swing IdentifierThe "Swing Identifier" is a custom Pine Script indicator designed for use in the TradingView platform. It serves to visually identify and mark swing highs and swing lows on a trading chart, which are key concepts in technical analysis. This script is comprehensive and customizable, making it a useful tool for traders looking to pinpoint potential trend reversals and support or resistance areas.
**Key Features of the 'Swing Identifier' Indicator:**
1. **Swing Range Input:**
- This input determines the number of bars to the left and right of the current bar that the script will examine to identify a swing high or low. A larger value will look for swings over a broader range, potentially identifying more significant swings but at the expense of sensitivity.
2. **Swing Strength Input:**
- The swing strength is set as a percentage and is used to filter out insignificant price movements. A swing high or low is only considered valid if the percentage change from the last swing is greater than this input value. This feature helps in avoiding false signals in sideways or less volatile markets.
3. **Use Wicks Option:**
- Users can choose whether to consider the wicks of the candles or just the closing prices in identifying swings. This feature adds flexibility, allowing the script to be tailored to different trading styles and strategies.
4. **Line Color Customization:**
- The color of the lines marking the swings can be customized, enhancing the visual appeal and readability of the chart.
**Operational Mechanics:**
1. **Identification of Swing Highs and Lows:**
- The script uses the `ta.pivothigh` and `ta.pivotlow` functions to identify swing highs and lows. Whether it uses the high/low of the candles or their closing prices is determined by the user's choice in the "Use Wicks" option.
2. **Drawing and Updating Lines:**
- When a new swing high or low is identified, and it meets the percentage change criteria from the previous swing, a line is drawn from the last swing low to the current high (or vice versa). If a new swing high (or low) is identified that is higher (or lower) than the previous one, the old line is deleted, and a new line is drawn.
3. **Swing Update Logic:**
- The script maintains a toggle mechanism to look alternatively for highs and lows. This ensures that it sequentially identifies a high and then a low (or vice versa), which aligns with how actual market swings behave.
**Usage in Trading:**
1. **Identifying Trend Reversals:**
- By marking swing highs and lows, the script helps traders identify potential trend reversals. A break of a swing low in an uptrend or a swing high in a downtrend could signal a change in the prevailing trend.
2. **Support and Resistance:**
- Swing highs and lows often act as levels of support and resistance. Traders can use these levels for setting entry or exit points, stop losses, and take profit orders.
3. **Customization for Strategy:**
- The customizable nature of the script allows traders to adjust the parameters according to their trading strategy, time frame, and asset volatility.
In summary, the "Swing Identifier" is a versatile and customizable tool that aids in visually identifying crucial price swing points, thereby assisting traders in making informed decisions based on technical analysis principles.
Swing PointsEnglish:
The indicator shows the fractals where stop-losses may be located and can be used to trade from their taking.
You can adjust the length of the fractal (the number of bars with which it is surrounded on both sides, to confirm the validity).
You can also display lines from fractal points for clarity.
To keep the chart clean, you can enable deletion of already taken fractals.
Example of use with deleted fractals and without lines:
Русский:
Индикатор показывает фракталы где могут находиться стоп-лоссы и его можно использовать для торговли от их снятия.
Можно настраивать длину фрактала (количество баров, которыми он окружен с обеих сторон, для подтверждения валидности).
Так же можно выводить линии от фрактальных точек для наглядности.
Для сохранения чистоты графика можно включить удаление уже снятых фракталов.

Swing Failure Signals [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script detects swing failure patterns by tracking how price interacts with recent swing highs and lows, then confirming those sweeps with a change in candle behavior. The goal is to highlight areas where price briefly breaks a key level, fails to continue, and then shifts direction. These events often occur around liquidity runs, where stops are triggered before price reverses. The script draws levels, colors bars, and prints clear markers to help visualize where these failures occur and when they are confirmed.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The logic starts with pivot-based swing detection. Recent swing highs and lows are stored and monitored. When price trades beyond one of these levels within a defined historical window, it is treated as a sweep. A sweep alone is not enough. The script then waits for a Change in State of Delivery (CISD), which is defined by a shift in candle structure that shows follow-through in the opposite direction. A tolerance filter measures how far price traveled beyond the level relative to the reaction that followed. If the reaction is strong enough and happens within a limited number of bars, the sweep is validated as a swing failure. In short: the swing defines the reference, the sweep shows intent, and the CISD confirms acceptance or rejection.
🟠 FEATURES
Sweep detection with a maximum lookback to avoid outdated levels
CISD confirmation using candle structure and price expansion
Alert conditions for bullish and bearish swing failures
🟠 USAGE
Setup : Add the script to your chart. It works on any market and timeframe. Lower timeframes highlight intraday liquidity runs, while higher timeframes show structural failures. Start with the default inputs before adjusting.
Read the chart : A bullish swing failure occurs when price sweeps a prior low, then reverses and confirms with a bullish CISD. A bearish swing failure is the opposite, sweeping a prior high and confirming with a bearish CISD. Dashed lines mark the swept swing. Solid lines mark the CISD level. Bars are colored while the SFP state is active.
Settings that matter : Increasing Pivot Detection Length finds more significant swings but fewer signals. Reducing Max Pivot Point Edge limits how far back sweeps are allowed, keeping signals more current. The Patience setting controls how many bars are allowed for confirmation after a sweep. The Trend Noise Filter raises or lowers how strong the reaction must be to qualify as a valid failure.
Swing-Based VWAPSwing-Based VWAP
Summary:
The "Swing-Based VWAP" indicator enhances traditional VWAP calculations by incorporating swing-based logic. It dynamically adapts to market conditions by identifying key swing highs and lows and calculating VWAP levels around these pivot points. This makes it a versatile tool for traders seeking actionable price insights.
Explanation:
What is Swing-Based VWAP?
The Swing-Based VWAP is a modified version of the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP). It calculates VWAP not only for a chosen timeframe (e.g., session, week) but also adapts dynamically to market swings. By identifying swing highs and lows, it offers more precise levels for potential price action.
Unique Features:
1. Dynamic Swing Integration:
- Uses pivot points to determine significant price levels.
- Calculates VWAP based on these points to adapt to market trends.
2. User-Friendly Settings:
- Includes options to hide VWAP on higher timeframes for chart clarity.
- Flexible swing size input for adjusting sensitivity.
How to Use:
1. Configuring Swing Settings:
- Use the "Swing Setting" input to determine the sensitivity of swing detection.
- Higher values identify broader swings, while smaller values capture more granular movements.
2. Enabling/Disabling VWAP:
- Toggle VWAP visibility using the "Use VWAP" option.
- The "Hide VWAP on 1D or Above" setting lets you control visibility on higher timeframes.
3. Anchor Period:
- Select your preferred anchoring period (e.g., session, week) to match your trading style.
4. Adjusting the Data Source:
- Use the "Source" input to select the price source (default: HLC3).
5. Visualizing Swing-Based VWAP:
- The script plots a dynamic VWAP line based on detected swing points.
- This line highlights average price levels weighted by volume and swing pivots.
Contrarian Market Structure BreakMarket Structure Break application was inspired and adapted from Market Structure Oscillator indicator developed by Lux Algo. So much credit to their work.
This indicator pairs nicely with the Contrarian 100 MA and can be located here:
Indicator Description: Contrarian Market Structure BreakOverview
The "Contrarian Market Structure Break" indicator is a versatile tool tailored for traders seeking to identify potential reversal opportunities by analyzing market structure across multiple timeframes. Built on Institutional Concepts of Structure (ICT), this indicator detects Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) patterns across short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term swings, plotting them with customizable lines and labels. It generates contrarian buy and sell signals when price breaks key swing levels, with a unique "Blue Dot Tracker" to monitor consecutive buy signals for trend confirmation. Optimized for the daily timeframe, this indicator is adaptable to other timeframes with proper testing, making it ideal for traders of forex, stocks, or cryptocurrencies.
How It Works
The indicator combines three key components to provide a comprehensive view of market dynamics: Multi-Timeframe Market Structure Analysis: It identifies swing highs and lows across short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term periods, plotting BOS (continuation) and CHoCH (reversal) events with customizable line styles and labels.
Contrarian Signal Generation: Buy and sell signals are triggered when the price crosses below swing lows (buy) or above swing highs (sell), indicating potential reversals in overextended markets.
Blue Dot Tracker: A unique feature that counts consecutive buy signals ("blue dots") and highlights a "Hold Investment" state with a yellow background when three or more buy signals occur, suggesting a potential trend continuation.
Signals are visualized as small circles below (buy) or above (sell) price bars, and a table in the bottom-right corner displays the blue dot count and recommended action (Hold or Flip Investment), enhancing decision-making clarity.
Mathematical Concepts Swing Detection: The indicator identifies swing highs and lows by comparing price patterns over three bars, ensuring robust detection of pivot points. A swing high occurs when the middle bar’s high is higher than the surrounding bars, and a swing low occurs when the middle bar’s low is lower.
Market Structure Logic: BOS is detected when the price breaks a prior swing high (bullish) or low (bearish) in the direction of the current trend, while CHoCH signals a potential reversal when the price breaks a swing level against the trend. These are calculated across three timeframes for a multi-dimensional perspective.
Blue Dot Tracker: This feature counts consecutive buy signals and tracks the entry price. If three or more buy signals occur without a sell signal, the indicator enters a "Hold Investment" state, marked by a yellow background, until the price exceeds the entry price or a sell signal occurs.
Entry and Exit Rules Buy Signal (Blue Dot Below Bar): Triggered when the closing price crosses below a swing low on either the intermediate-term or long-term timeframe, suggesting an oversold condition and potential reversal upward. Short-term signals can be enabled but are disabled by default to reduce noise.
Sell Signal (White Dot Above Bar): Triggered when the closing price crosses above a swing high on either the intermediate-term or long-term timeframe, indicating an overbought condition and potential reversal downward.
Blue Dot Tracker Logic: After a buy signal, the indicator increments a blue dot counter and records the entry price. If three or more consecutive buy signals occur (blueDotCount ≥ 3), the indicator enters a "Hold Investment" state, highlighted with a yellow background, suggesting a potential trend continuation. The "Hold Investment" state ends when the price exceeds the entry price or a sell signal occurs, resetting the counter.
Exit Rules: Traders can exit buy positions when a sell signal appears, the price exceeds the entry price during a "Hold Investment" state, or based on additional confirmation from BOS/CHoCH patterns or other technical analysis tools. Always use proper risk management.
Recommended Usage
The indicator is optimized for the daily timeframe, where it effectively captures significant reversal and continuation patterns in trending or ranging markets. It can be adapted to other timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, 15M) with careful testing of settings, particularly enabling/disabling short-term structure analysis to suit market conditions. Backtesting is recommended to optimize performance for your chosen asset and timeframe.
Customization Options Market Structure Display: Toggle short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term structures on or off, with customizable line styles (solid, dashed, dotted) and colors for bullish and bearish breaks.
Labels: Enable or disable BOS/CHoCH labels for each timeframe to reduce chart clutter.
Signal Visibility: Hide buy/sell signals if desired for a cleaner chart.
Blue Dot Tracker: Monitor the blue dot count and action (Hold or Flip Investment) via the table display, which is fully customizable in terms of position and appearance.
Why Use This Indicator?
The "Contrarian Market Structure Break" indicator offers a robust framework for identifying high-probability reversal and continuation setups using ICT principles. Its multi-timeframe analysis, clear signal visualization, and innovative Blue Dot Tracker provide traders with actionable insights into market dynamics. Whether you're a swing trader or a day trader, this indicator’s flexibility and intuitive design make it a valuable addition to your trading arsenal.

**Swing HL – Swing High/Low Marker**
This indicator marks swing highs and swing lows on the price chart to assist in reading price structure, swing rhythm, and potential support/resistance zones. Markers are plotted as dots on the main chart, and display behavior can be fully controlled via user inputs such as minimum timeframe, sensitivity, and visual style. It is designed to serve as a structural overlay for discretionary or systematic analysis.
### Inputs and Usage
1. **Minimum Display Timeframe (minSwingTf)**
* Purpose: Defines the minimum timeframe on which swing markers will be shown.
* When the current chart timeframe is below this setting, all swing markers are hidden.
* Guidance:
* For swing or position-style structure analysis, consider using 4H or higher;
* For intraday structural work, you may lower this value as needed.
2. **left / right (leftBars / rightBars)**
* Purpose: Jointly control how strict and how frequent swing highs and lows are marked.
* Tuning:
* Smaller values: More frequent swings, suitable for detailed, lower-timeframe structure;
* Larger values: Only more pronounced swings are kept, suitable for higher-level trend and swing mapping;
* If the chart becomes crowded with markers, increasing these values will simplify the structure.
3. **Marker Color (dotColor)**
* Purpose: Sets the color of the swing markers.
* It is recommended to choose a color that contrasts with the background and main price plot while remaining visually unobtrusive.
4. **Line Width (dotWidth)**
* Purpose: Controls the line width of the dot markers, effectively adjusting their perceived size.
* On dense charts or when zoomed out, a larger value can help maintain readability.
### Practical Notes
* Use this indicator as a structural overlay to highlight swing highs and lows alongside your existing trading tools and methods.
* In multi-timeframe workflows, it can help outline the main structure on higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, Daily), which you then refine on lower timeframes for execution.
* If too many swing points appear, either increase `minSwingTf` or raise the `left` / `right` values to obtain a cleaner structural view.
* The script is intended as a visualization aid for price swings; it does not, by itself, define entry, exit, or risk management rules and should be integrated into a broader analytical framework.
Swing High/Low ExtensionsSwing High/Low — Extensions (2 Plots + Drawings + Touch Signal)
What it does
This indicator finds Swing Highs/Lows using a symmetric length (same bars left & right), then creates horizontal extension levels that run to the right and stop at the first price touch (“extend until future intersection”).
It outputs:
Two plots showing the most recent active High/Low extension (great for alerts & strategy logic).
Line drawings for every detected swing (historical levels stay on the chart and end at the touch bar).
A hidden TouchSignal used to color bars and trigger alerts without distorting the price scale.
The design mirrors Sierra Chart’s “Swing High and Low” with “Extend Swings Until Future Intersection”, but implemented natively in Pine.
How it determines swings
Uses ta.pivothigh() / ta.pivotlow() with length bars left and right.
A swing is confirmed only after there are length bars to the right of the center.
How extensions/lines end
High extensions end when High ≥ level.
Low extensions end when Low ≤ level.
The corresponding line drawing is frozen on the touch bar; the most recent active line continues to extend each new bar.
Inputs
Swing Strength (Bars Left = Right) – symmetric pivot length.
Offset as Percentage – 1 = +1%; positive values push levels outward (High up / Low down), negative pull them inward.
Draw “Extend…Until Future Intersection” Lines – toggle line drawings on/off.
Line Width (Plots + Drawings) – thickness for plots and drawings.
HighExt Color / LowExt Color – colors for the two plots and drawings.
Touch Color – color to paint bars on the touch bar (doesn’t affect scale).
HighExt/LowExt Line Style – choose line style (Solid/Dashed/Dotted) for drawings.
Color Bars on Touch? – enable/disable bar coloring.
Bar Color on High Touch / Low Touch – separate bar colors for each side.
Bar Color Transparency (0..100) – opacity for the bar painting.
Plots
HighExt – latest active high extension only.
LowExt – latest active low extension only.
(Internally there is also a hidden “TouchSignal” plot used for bar coloring & alerts; it’s not displayed to keep the chart scale clean.)
Alerts
Three built-in alertconditions:
Any Extension Touched — triggers when either side is hit.
High Extension Touched — only high level touch.
Low Extension Touched — only low level touch.
Create alerts from the indicator’s “More” (⋯) menu → Add alert → choose one of the conditions.
Styling
Drawings use your selected style (Solid/Dashed/Dotted), color, and width.
Existing historical lines adopt new styles when the script recalculates.
Bar coloring highlights the exact touch candle; disable it if you prefer clean candles.
Notes & tips
Scale-safe: the TouchSignal is hidden (display=none), so it won’t distort the Y-axis.
Performance: TradingView limits scripts to ~500 line objects; this script uses max_lines_count=500. If you hit the cap on long histories, either increase timeframe or disable drawings and rely on the two plots + alerts.
Works on any symbol/timeframe; levels are rounded to the instrument’s minimum tick.
Intended use
For discretionary levels, alerting, and rule-based entries that react to first touch of recent swing extensions. Not financial advice—use at your own risk.
Swing High/Low with Liquidity Sweeps🧠 Overview
This indicator identifies swing highs and swing lows based on user-defined candle lengths and checks for liquidity sweeps—situations where the price breaks a previous swing level but then closes back inside, indicating a potential false breakout or stop hunt. It also supports visual labeling and alerts for these events.
⚙️ Inputs
Swing Length (must be odd number ≥ 3):
Determines how many candles are used to identify swing highs/lows. The central candle must be higher or lower than all neighbors within the range.
Example: If swingLength = 5, the central candle must be higher/lower than the 2 candles on both sides.
Sweep Lookback (bars):
Defines how many bars to look back for possible liquidity sweeps.
Show Swing Labels (checkbox):
Optionally display labels on the chart when a swing high or low is detected.
Show Sweep Labels (checkbox):
Optionally display labels on the chart when a liquidity sweep occurs.
🕯️ Swing Detection Logic
A Swing High is detected when the high of the central candle is greater than the highs of all candles around it (as per the defined length).
A Swing Low is detected when the low of the central candle is lower than the lows of surrounding candles.
Swing labels are placed slightly above (for highs) or below (for lows) the candle.
💧 Liquidity Sweep Logic
A Sweep High is triggered if:
The current high breaks above a previously detected swing high,
And then the candle closes below that swing high,
Within the configured lookback window.
A Sweep Low is triggered if:
The current low breaks below a previous swing low,
And then closes above it,
Within the lookback window.
These are often seen as stop hunts or fake breakouts.
🔔 Alerts
Sweep High Alert: Triggered when a sweep above a swing high occurs.
Sweep Low Alert: Triggered when a sweep below a swing low occurs.
You can use these to set up TradingView alerts to notify you of potential liquidity grabs.
📊 Use Cases
